Naruto: Fox and Cat

The day after the ninjas of Konoha appeared, they headed towards Kusakure Village, intending to find out if there was any news about Sasuke there.Wu sent them off with a smile on her face. Before leaving, she planned to give them a gift, but it was declined by everyone in a tacit and swift manner.After all, they don't want to parade around the market with a bottle of aphrodisiac.

However, Naruto tried every possible means to please Wu, hoping that he would help him give Sakura Luofeng a message, but he almost ended up being ripped off by her.After Sakura punched the guy hard, she apologized and took him away.

When the three members of the Snake Team who were at the barrier of the underground base heard the news, the two most noisy ones showed their disdain without hesitation.

According to time calculation, if everything goes well, Ying Luofeng should be back to Shuanghua by this time, but there is still no news.Although Mai was worried and wanted to go to the Hidden Rain Village to have a look, she was worried about Sasuke and the others, so she could only send a letter to her second brother asking him to go over and take a look at the situation.

Itachi's body has also improved a lot, but he can only barely walk. After all, even though Mai has tried her best to regulate his body, his already seriously ill body is still extremely weak.

The two brothers seemed to have eliminated those barriers, and Itachi occasionally followed Sasuke out for a walk. On one side, he could relax, and on the other side, he could see Sasuke's current cultivation level, and by the way, he would also tell him about the Sharingan's cultivation method.

Practicing together after so many years reminded Sasuke of the time when he often pestered Itachi to practice with him when he was a child. The memory of that time is still vivid in his mind.

Except for Jugo who was very calm, both Koso and Suigetsu looked at the two brothers who were going out together as if they were seeing a new world. Especially when they saw Sasuke's tsundere behavior that was obviously acting like a baby but pretending not to care, they Both jaws dropped.

The three members of the Snake Team watched blankly for several days before slowly getting used to it.Suigetsu tentatively planned to find a river to take a dip. After all, he didn't understand the world of brother control, and when he saw Sasuke's behavior that completely subverted his imagination and cognition, he felt that he was refreshing his world view every day...

After Xiang Lu was stunned for a while, a strange blush appeared on his face.Although Sasuke's appearance is completely different from before, I have never seen this kind of appearance before. Sure enough, it is better to buy a camera quickly. The most important thing is that the appearance of the two brothers is very eye-catching~~~

After Jugo silently accepted Sasuke's brother-control character, he went out to communicate with the birds and check the situation around the base.

Wu, on the other hand, disappeared all day long, spending time in the secret room of the base studying various medical books. Feng Ruo and Grandpa Fujii also came over occasionally to discuss things.Although Itachi can now walk and jump, it does not change the fact that his health is in poor condition.

Itachi also knew that his current body could not last for many days. When it was late at night, he came to the secret room.When he saw the girl who was still studying medical books, he just said calmly, "No need to work so hard, Miss Wu. I know my body myself."

Wu nodded, but still looked for medical books and wrote something in the notebook, "I know, but I promised that boy to cure you."

"It's enough that you have helped us so much, not to mention that you have allowed Sasuke and I to live like we were children for a few days." Itachi slowly closed his eyes, and his eyes began to blur again, " But no matter how carefree I was when I was a kid, it's just a dream. That's enough now."

The quill Wu was holding paused for a moment, then asked, "What do you want to do?"

"With my current body, can I still fight fiercely?" Itachi asked expressionlessly, although he already knew the answer.

"As you know, it's completely impossible."

"But I still have some things to do." Itachi opened his eyes and looked at his hands, with determination on his face, "I have to do it. This is also my atonement. It's death anyway, so I might as well let myself go. But my long-cherished wish came true.”

Wu clenched the quill in her hand and whispered, "That boy... will be angry..."

"I know." Itachi slowly clenched his fists, but his tone remained firm, "Even if the operation allows me to live longer, it will still take a long time to recuperate. What's more, I am very worried about the curse mark on Sasuke. I I want to do something for my brother, even if it costs my life.”

"..." Wu did not speak. She pursed her lips tightly for a while before saying, "I always feel that you are cruel. After knowing so many truths, you still want that young man to kill you himself. It is indeed your atonement, but it has made that young man bear a heavier sin. What's more, after your death, he was the one who was in shackles!"

"But, no matter what, I am the culprit who killed my tribe and the one who made Sasuke suffer for so many years..." Itachi slowly closed his eyes and whispered, "Anyway, with my current body With his condition, it’s already a miracle that he can survive so long after that battle. What’s more, I really can’t feel at ease unless the curse seal on Sasuke is released.”

"That curse seal is indeed very troublesome... It's a pity that I'm not very good at using our clan's abilities, and Sister Feng is not here..."

"The ability to nullify chakra alone cannot remove the curse seal, and if the curse seal is directly sealed on Sasuke, it may recur one day. I need to completely eliminate the curse seal and seal it completely. ", Itachi paused for a moment, and then said softly, "Anyway, please, Miss Mai."

Wu opened her mouth, and then just whispered, "I know, wait until sister brings back the Thousand Moon Grass. I will prepare a potion to restore your body to its peak, but...", tightly After pursing her lips for a while, Wu's voice was slightly hoarse and said, "The time is only 12 hours."

"Okay, thank you." After thanking him lightly, Itachi turned and left.These days, he has been seeing the three rounds of black magatama on Sasuke's neck, which are the curse-like seals left by Orochimaru.Ever since I learned about the curse mark on his neck more than three years ago, I have been trying to find a way to completely unlock and seal it.

Now that everything is in place, sometimes hard decisions must be made about something.Even though things have become messy now, I still have to be ruthless...

"..." Wu listened in silence to the disappearance of Itachi's footsteps. She slowly tightened her grip on the quill in her hand, but her eyes became moist.In the end, everything turned out just as Sister Feng had guessed, and she still couldn't help...

Thinking of the cheerfulness of that cold boy in recent days, she could only speak apologetically and guiltily, her low voice sounding hollow in the secret room, "I'm sorry...boy..."

After taking a few deep breaths to regain her composure, she looked at what her men had gained in the past few days, "As a result, the treatment method that was finally found has to be given up... But... it is better to discuss it with the young man, otherwise he will definitely You will hate me to death..."

After sighing, she continued to read medical books for a while to improve the previous medical plan and increase the success rate to 60%, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

After pricking up her ears and listening to the sounds outside, she sneaked out and quietly sneaked to Sasuke's room.

Anyway, Itachi didn't remind himself to keep it a secret just now~~ just treat it as if he spilled the beans.More importantly, I am very interested in that very challenging surgery~~~hehe~~~~

After Sasuke, who was awakened by her, listened to her words, he was silent for a long time before asking in a low voice, "Mai, what will happen to the medicine you mentioned after it wears off?"

"It depends on whether you want him to die or live~" Wu smiled mischievously, and then felt a little sad, "I didn't want to agree to your brother's promise at first, but now I feel that he might not be able to cross that hurdle. It's your brother. And even if you seem to have looked away now, maybe you still care about him in your heart."

"..." Sasuke opened his mouth, but didn't say anything to refute.

"So," Wu suddenly patted him on the shoulder with great energy and said based on the experience of those who have been there, "just have a fight! Boy!"

"Wu, I want him to live."

"Understood~" Nodding with a smile, Wu immediately took out a scroll. When fully opened, it was nearly two meters long and had some medicinal materials written on it.Shaking the scroll, Wu Wu smiled very treacherously, "In order for the post-war operation to be successful, please help me steal all the medicinal materials and equipment on it~~ Because the equipment in this base is not very complete~~"

"Okay." Sasuke nodded, and then took the scroll. After reading it quickly, he decided to sneak into Konoha tomorrow night and 'visit' the two advisors.Let Danzo's words aside for now, after all, Itachi's matters are more important now.

"Remember not to let your brother know." Wu waved her hands and prepared to leave.

Sasuke looked at the scroll in his hand and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mai."

"You're welcome~" Wu smiled happily, suddenly remembered something and immediately turned around and took out a familiar small white bottle, "Young man, since you want to thank you, try... "

"I won't eat it!!" Sasuke refused immediately, and when she said the next sentence, he quickly added, "I won't accept it either!"

"That's too much. It's obvious that a boy who is still in adolescence needs it very much..." Wu Gu puffed up her face, shook the small white bottle and asked without giving up, "Do you really not want it? Any kind of goddess will do~~ "

"Absolutely not!!"

"Then let me sprinkle it on your brother~~"

"This is absolutely not possible!! His health is still very bad!"
