Chapter 81 Sasuke: Who's to Blame When the Sword Is Drawn?
"Giggle giggle!"
The crowing of roosters woke the village from its slumber.
The morning light shone into the Uchiha clan's territory and seeped into Sasuke's room.
"Sasuke! Get up!"
Fugaku pushed open the door and pulled the covers off Sasuke.
"Hmm... Oh! I understand!"
Sasuke came out of his dream.
This dream was strange.
I seemed to hear a strange sound, but the sound was very far away from me.
It seems like they're saying something...
"A flying sword inherently evil?"
Sasuke shook his head, trying to clear his mind.
I went to bed early last night and didn't read the comic book I borrowed from Naruto.
After all, he was now going to bring Nissan back!
After getting dressed, Sasuke was led to the courtyard by Fugaku.
Fugaku took out a large, heavily damaged wooden sword and a smaller wooden sword from the room.
"Take it."
Fugaku threw the wooden sword at Sasuke.
A crimson glint flashed in Sasuke's eyes, and the next second he caught the wooden sword after a stylish somersault.
"Turn off the Sharingan!"
A hint of smugness flashed in Fugaku's eyes, but he quickly concealed it and reprimanded Sasuke in a rather stern voice.
Having two tomoe is certainly good, but right now we're focusing on building the foundation of swordsmanship and developing our physical intuition.
If you always rely on the Sharingan's insight, you might end up like your ancestor Izuna, getting stabbed by the Second Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique one day.
Of course, this doesn't mean Izuna's foundation was bad; after all, he was the second leader of the Uchiha clan during the Warring States period.
It's just that the Second Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique was too fast.
Therefore, the Uchiha clan subsequently became even more stringent in their requirements for a solid foundation.
"Okay, I got it."
Sasuke pursed his lips, then closed his Sharingan and gripped the wooden sword firmly with both hands.
Come towards me!
Fugaku swung his wooden sword, using about the same strength as Sasuke's age, and slashed at Sasuke.
Snap!
Sasuke blocked it.
It was easy, after all, Sasuke's strength had increased a lot during his fight with Naruto, not to mention he had eaten a lot of Naruto's fruit.
Sasuke's eyes flashed with smugness, a smugness that Fugaku keenly noticed.
Oh wow, not bad, then I'll put in a little more effort.
This time, his strength was about the same as that of a graduate of the Ninja Academy.
*Smack! Smack smack!*
Three sword beams flashed through the air. Sasuke had no time to parry and could only parry the blows with the wooden sword.
"Dad! I don't understand! This is too dangerous!!!"
Sasuke shouted as he defended himself.
Yes, subjecting a kid of Sasuke's age to such intense training is indeed a bit insane.
"Sasuke, don't dodge, charge at me!"
"Only in this way can you cultivate the spirit of a ninja, and develop great strength and skill!"
This line sounds so familiar.
It seems to have appeared in one of the comic books that my dad took away.
Good heavens, Dad, you're playing this game!
"Don't you want to bring Itachi back?!"
These words struck Sasuke right to the heart.
"I think!!!"
Sasuke swung his sword with all his might and struck Fugaku's attack.
"Then charge at me!!!"
"Yes!!!"
About an hour later, Sasuke's clothes were soaked, and his body was covered in red marks, all from Fugaku's cuts.
"Seriously, Sasuke is still so young, how come he's already at such a high level?"
While Sasuke went to take a shower, Mikoto pinched Fugaku's waist in annoyance and said angrily.
"Oh dear, we can't waste Sasuke's talent. Once he grows up, we can bring Itachi back."
"..."
Mikoto was silent for a moment, then twisted Fugaku's waist hard again.
"Okay, but you have to be careful about the amount!"
Fugaku nodded repeatedly, and then picked up the newspaper as Sasuke was about to come out, and slowly began to read it.
"Dad, I'm leaving."
After finishing breakfast, Sasuke slung his bag over his shoulder and left, taking the little wooden sword with him as well.
"Have a safe journey." *2
Fugaku put down the newspaper; it was time for him to get to work.
Ugh, I really hope I finish my work quickly today, otherwise how am I supposed to go and have a chat with Danzo...?
Let's buy a durian and bring it over.
In Danzo's house, a snake crawled in through the window.
And then there was a knock on the door.
Root deputy opened the door and welcomed in the blue-haired, very confident man.
A somber voice emanated from Danzo's room, giving off a chilling, serpentine feeling.
About fifteen minutes later, the sound disappeared, and the snake slowly crawled out.
"Let him in."
Danzo's voice came through.
"Yes!"
Despite missing an arm, Root deputy diligently followed Mizuki and led him into the room.
"Lord Danzo."
Mizuki knelt and lowered his head, but there was little respect in his eyes.
How can an old man who has lost his roots be worthy of being compared to Lord Orochimaru?
However, he currently needs the Mangekyou Sharingan (from Uchiha Kagami) to facilitate completing his mission.
"So you're one of Orochimaru's subordinates left in Konoha?"
Although it was phrased as a question, it carried a hint of undeniable denial.
"Yes, I am Lord Orochimaru's outstanding subordinate."
A hint of smugness flashed in Mizuki's eyes.
"Orochimaru already told you about the plan, right?"
Danzo tapped the table.
This was another one he had bought; the previous one had been stolen by that despicable Uchiha Itachi.
Actually, no one could send it back to him.
Tenzo originally had this idea, but he was too busy with work and it seemed that Itachi and Danzo's relationship was not very good.
Therefore, Danzo could only buy one during the two days he was resting at home.
Mizuki nodded, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Don't worry, as long as Lord Danzo joins us, we will definitely succeed."
Tch, trash who can't even tell the difference between the king and queen.
Danzo cursed inwardly.
Together with Orochimaru, he captured the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, controlled the Nine-Tails with Kagami's Mangekyou Sharingan, then unleashed the Nine-Tails' rampage, killing Sarutobi.
He then appeared as a savior, defeated the Nine-Tails, and became the new Hokage.
It's wonderful, isn't it?
Danzo was tempted, but did he not know what kind of person Orochimaru was?
They sent someone from Tsinghua University who came up with a whole bunch of wonderful ideas.
But whether he becomes Hokage first or is killed by Orochimaru's schemes is uncertain.
"Yes, I agree to the plan, but I have just added a few conditions to Orochimaru's conditions."
"Go back and ask Orochimaru yourself."
Mizuki's smile froze.
Although he deeply respected Lord Orochimaru, he was just a nobody!
They want me to ask Lord Orochimaru...
Fine, I'll go all out and take a gamble; maybe I can turn things around.
Then Shizuko will be mine, and Iruka will just be my subordinate, watching me reach the pinnacle of my life!
