Naruto: The secret in the wood escape barrier

Chapter 119 The betrayal of family ties (2)

Itachi, who had experienced a cruel war, knew this all too well.

"The choice is really difficult." Itachi thought painfully.

He lowered his head and stared at the floor, feeling deeply entangled.

Itachi was confused whether to choose to protect the hard-won peace that Shisui and Konoha wanted to maintain, or to choose the so-called "path of self-improvement" of the Uchiha clan under his father's leadership.

He thought of Shisui and the firm look in his eyes when he proposed to persuade his father. Those eyes had conveyed unexpressed love to him countless times. In Itachi's eyes, that was the most precious person he cherished. .

After a long time, Fugaku broke the calm in the room: "Itachi, if this happens, the Uchiha clan can regain their own power. That's right, we are not doing anything illegal, we are just taking back what belongs to us. Something, you have to figure this out.”

Itachi raised his head and looked at Fugaku, whose eyes were stern.

"Our clan has always been forbearing and giving in, but even so, we still can't escape the fate of being jealous. This is the so-called 'a gentleman is not guilty, but he who possesses a treasure is guilty'. The very fact of possessing the Sharingan is We are the source of their exclusion and fear. If possible, I don’t want to do this, but if the situation develops to that point, then I can only give it a try.”

Itachi was full of struggles in his heart and thought for a long time. Finally, he decided to ask his father the question.

"Father...if Shisui still insists on doing this at that time, what should father do with him?"

Fugaku's eyes became cold, and his deep pupils carried determination without hesitation.

"I will kill him."

Outside the thin and translucent paper door of the Japanese room, there is a courtyard covered with dripping green. The small bamboo tube for collecting water changes direction after filling with water. When it hits the stone, it makes a crisp sound, refreshing. Ethereal, it sets off the long silence between father and son in the Japanese room.

Although Itachi had been mentally prepared for this answer, when he actually heard it, it still made his heart tremble and his whole body tremble.

His father's words were clear and unquestionable, and there was no possibility of negotiation. Such a decisive answer also showed that Itachi could not have both.

Now that his father's determination is unstoppable and Shisui's attitude is clear, the rest is his own choice.

Time will not stop passing because there are some things you don’t want to face.

The silent Itachi finally squeezed out the word "good" from his mouth. This word was so difficult to say, making the person who said it burst into tears.

After saying that, Itachi walked out and opened the door of the Japanese room. At this time, Fugaku behind him stopped him.

"Itachi, you are my son, so I will wait for your answer," Fugaku paused: "But, again, I won't wait for you too long."

Itachi stared at the bamboo tube in the courtyard in ecstasy. He didn't look back at his father. He just nodded heavily and walked out of the Japanese room.

"Oops!" A childish voice sounded.

Itachi, who was so preoccupied and kept walking forward with his head down, didn't notice Sasuke who suddenly rushed out from around the corner and accidentally knocked him down.

Seeing that it was his younger brother, Itachi hurried forward and helped him up.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, are you hurt?" he asked with concern.

"It's okay! This is nothing." Sasuke patted the dirt on his pants and stood up, then said, "Brother, will you practice with me today?"
