Naruto: The secret in the wood escape barrier

The events of that day were still vivid in his mind, and now was the first step he needed to take.

"Sasuke," Fugaku said, looking at his youngest son who knew nothing about anything: "When Hatake returns to school in shock, you have to find a way to bring him home."

"I don't understand, father, why do you pay so much attention to him? Is it because he has opened the Sharingan, but I'm not familiar with him either..." Sasuke was puzzled and looked at his father with confusion on his face.

"You don't need to know any of this. You are only responsible for bringing him back." Fugaku did not intend to explain too much to his son.

"But every day after school, he goes home with Naruto. If I go to him directly, he will definitely feel strange." Sasuke was still hesitant.

"You figure out your own way."

"But...what should I say so that he will be willing to come back with me?"

Fugaku looked at this innocent son. Compared with Itachi's independent thinking, Sasuke was slightly inferior to him. He sighed and said: "It's your own business, I only focus on the results. You are mine My son, I believe you can handle this problem."

"But-" Sasuke wanted to say something more, but Fugaku interrupted him.

Fugaku's tone was serious: "You must do this, and only you can do it. This matter even affects the fate of our family. You must not mess it up."

His father's unarguable expression made Sasuke realize the seriousness of the matter. He nodded ignorantly and had no choice but to agree.

"Is it so serious that a Hatake shock affects the fate of the clan?" Sasuke thought to himself. He didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask more questions.

So he just agreed and exited the room.

Thinking about it carefully, the atmosphere in the clan seems to be different from the past recently.

My brother seems to have become busier and often doesn't come home. Shisui, who is always with his brother, has not been seen for a long time.

"What happened?" Sasuke thought, "Next time my brother comes back, I'd better ask him."

"You want to become the guardian of the Uchiha clan."

Thinking of Fugaku's encouragement to him that day, Sasuke felt that he was full of energy again.

"Okay, let's ask Naruto first after school." Sasuke thought as he quickly walked to the lake where the Uchiha family trained fire escape.

"I will open my eyes soon, and I will prove it to you, father." Sasuke vowed secretly.

------------

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

By the lake, a fireball about forty centimeters in diameter was spit out from Sasuke's mouth.

"Hoo, ho--it's not good yet--"

Just as his breathing calmed down a bit, Sasuke began to form seals again.

"The art of fireball!"

The fireball seemed a little bigger than before.

Sasuke wiped the sweat from his head and formed the seal again.

Not far away, Itachi was squatting on a tree, watching his brother's training and smiling happily.

"You have made so much progress, Sasuke." Itachi's eyes showed remorse: "I'm sorry, Sasuke, my brother may not have much time to spend with you in the future."

Itachi once again looked at Sasuke lovingly, then formed a seal with one hand and activated the teleportation technique.

"Huh?" Faintly feeling the traces of chakra, Sasuke turned around and looked at the place where Itachi had just been. The leaves were still shaking slightly, and a group of birds flew out from it with flapping wings.

"It's a little bird, are you here to see me practice too?" Sasuke was happy and continued to practice.
