Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

Chapter 323: Dog

Time flies, it is the 54th year of Konoha.

"Itachi~ graduated~"

"Mr. Beiliuhu."

Itachi bowed politely to Hiruhu, then walked into the house with Hiruhu.

"Ah, where's Fugaku? I seemed to sense Fugaku's chakra just now."

Hiruhu looked left and right, but couldn't find Fugaku.

"Father......"

Itachi also pretended to look around.

"Father probably has something important to do, so go and get busy..."

He said this seriously, but he actually knew what was going on.

Fugaku ran away because he was afraid that Hiruko would fight him again. This was not the first time this had happened.

"I see. Then, ding-ding-ding~ Graduation present!"

Hiruhu smiled at Itachi and took out his gift from behind.

After Itachi took it, he turned it over and over and read it twice, then raised his head with a confused look and looked at Hiruhu.

"This is......"

"Hmm? Haven't you seen it before? A cat ear headpiece. Very cute. It suits you very well."

Itachi blinked, not quite understanding how this thing could be so suitable for him.

He originally thought it was a new type of blade that could launch shurikens or amplify chakra or perform spells, but it turned out to be just a headdress???

And if we really want to talk about matching, this thing is for girls, right? It might be cute on Izumi, but Itachi himself is a boy!

"Don't you like it?"

"dislike......"

Itachi said he didn't dislike it, but he also said he didn't like it.

"Ah~ I'm glad you like it. Where's the tea? Shouldn't we serve tea when guests come?"

"I'll go right away."

Itachi twitched his legs and ran to the side to make tea for Higurashi.

He thought secretly in his heart, as expected, Beiliuhu was just using the excuse of sending gifts to challenge his father. If his father was here, Beiliuhu would definitely not drink any tea. He was waiting for his father to come back!

In a blink of an eye, a whole morning had passed, and Hiruhu had sat in Fugaku's house and drank three pots of tea. Even Itachi, who was accompanying him, felt a little sleepy.

Finally, someone came to rescue him.

Swah——

Kakashi landed at Fugaku's door and walked in.

"Master Uchiha... Mr. Biruko, you are here too."

As soon as Kakashi saw Hiruhu, he had a bad feeling. If he didn't have a mission, he would have turned around and ran away.

Although Kakashi is different from other people in Konoha, he has his own filter, which makes his perception of Higurashi a little better, but that's all, not much better.

"Hey, Kakashi, I'm waiting for Fugaku too. Oh, actually I came to give Itachi a graduation present, but I just wanted to see Fugaku by the way."

As if realizing that he had let the cat out of the bag, Beiluo quickly waved his hand.

"What do you want with Fugaku?"

Kakashi gave Itachi, who had clearly just cheered up, a pitiful look and said to Hiruhu, "The Fourth Hokage has invited you to an important meeting. Hiruhu-san is also among the invited guests."

Obito is just a Genin, but no one in Konoha treats him as a Genin. If Obito is invited to a meeting, no one will ever say "no".

Swah——

Fugaku suddenly appeared and smiled awkwardly at Hiruhu.

"Biliuhu, I'm sorry. I just finished my clan affairs and kept you waiting for so long."

It's been a long wait, a whole morning.

Beiluohu shrugged. He didn't really care anyway.

Seeing that Hiruhu didn't show any extra emotions, Fugaku seemed relieved and looked at Kakashi.

"Did the Yondaime explain the content of the meeting? Are there any preparations needed?"

Speaking of business, Kakashi nodded seriously.

"The Cloud Ninja has sent someone."

Fugaku narrowed his eyes when he heard that it was someone sent by the Kumo Ninja.

In an instant, Fugaku thought a lot.

The Cloud Ninjas who came here definitely weren't here to quarrel, but to seek an alliance.

Due to the unrest in the Water Kingdom, economic exchanges between the Fire Kingdom and the Lightning Kingdom have been quite poor in recent years.

It has only recently been suppressed, but the impact caused over the past few years is definitely not something that can be alleviated or improved in a short period of time.

The Earth Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom were not affected at all, so their national strength developed rapidly. If the Fire Kingdom and the Thunder Kingdom did not solve the problem as soon as possible, then in a few years, they would probably be suppressed by the Wind Kingdom and the Earth Kingdom in all areas.

As for the Water Country, who cares about their life or death? They are almost killing themselves.

The Fourth Hokage called him Fugaku, it must be for show. The whole talk of using courtesy first and then force is nonsense. Since it is a transaction of interests, he must show off his muscles first.

Secondly, Fugaku's first appearance at the high-level meeting can actually be seen as Orochimaru's statement, an attitude of inviting Uchiha to formally integrate into Konoha.

In short, there are many tricks involved, and it will not harm the Uchiha.

"Itachi, practice well. I'm going to the village."

"I understand, father."

Itachi agreed immediately, it was finally over!

After getting Itachi's answer, Fugaku looked at Hiruhu.

"Hirohu, are you coming together? We should take the Fourth Hokage's invitation seriously. If there's anything, we can talk about it later. How about that?"

Bei Liuhu curled his lips.

"Let's go, Orochimaru always makes a lot of trouble to delay me from...drinking tea, ah~"

The three people except Beiliuhu looked at the half-pound of tea leaves on the table that had been poured out, and turned their heads away at the same time, pretending not to know.

Whoever brings it up will be in trouble.

"Dad...Dad..."

At this time, three-year-old Sasuke staggered out from the back room as if he had just learned to walk, put his face against the door frame, and looked at the four people in the living room.

Itachi quickly walked over and supported Sasuke.

"Sasuke, be good and go back."

"and many more."

Beiliuhu quickly took out another cat headdress from behind him.

"Put it on him and see, he's pretty cute!"

Itachi blinked and accepted the cat headdress with all his heart.

So, what a stupid graduation gift! It was obviously a spur-of-the-moment idea! Otherwise, why would there be a second one?

After putting the cat headdress on Sasuke, Itachi's mood suddenly didn't seem so bad anymore, because his younger brother was indeed very cute.

"Itachi~hug~"

Little Sasuke seemed to like the feeling of being held in the ears by his brother, and he stretched out his hands with a smile, asking Itachi to hug him.

Of course Itachi would not refuse. He picked up Sasuke, bowed slightly to the three of them, and walked back.

"My son made you two laugh."

Fugaku spoke politely to Hiruzen and Kakashi, but he was actually quite proud of himself.

There is no need to say much about Itachi's talent. He graduated early with the best results in the ninja school. Apart from Kakashi in front of him and Kawazo back then, there was no one else like him.

Sasuke...Sasuke hasn't grown up yet, but you can already see his intelligence.

But Hiruhu's words made Fugaku shudder.

"He seems to have good talent? I hope your son can grow up quickly, Fugaku. I'm very optimistic about him!"

Hiruko's interested look made Fugaku mourn for a second for his son.

Sasuke showed up on his own, so don't blame your father for selling you out...
