Naruto: The Iceman of the Senju Family

"Crack~"

The last white folder was thrown on the table, and the man in the darkness looked at his subordinates standing in front of him.

The subordinate wears a tiger mask painted white, with kabuki facial makeup extending to the left and right near the eye holes, raised high as if to express anger.

"Uchiha Itachi..."

The photo posted on the document shows a young boy who still has a childlike spirit.

In the photo, he seems to be staring at everyone who is looking at this information. There is a powerful force in his eyes, which makes people not think that he is just a teenager.

"Many people say that he is a genius since the founding of the Ninja School. Although the other two are also more outstanding, their performance is still not as impressive as Uchiha Itachi, and..."

The subordinate's voice was very cold and hard. Danzo stared at the folder and listened to the other party's report without any fluctuation in his eyes.

Of course he knows what his subordinates want to say--

Moreover, the Third Hokage showed extraordinary attention to these two people, and his attitude was unprecedentedly tough, so it was best not to target them unless it was absolutely necessary.

Of course Danzo thought so too,

Over the years, he has been able to bargain with his old friends on many things, and sometimes he even cuts things off first and then tells them later. As long as he later shows that he is on the side of the village, Hiruzen usually won't blame him too much.

But at the same time, he also knew that his old friend who smiled every day was far from being as simple as it seemed. If he really dared to touch what he had made clear, it was not sure how useful this long-standing friendship would be.

It is precisely because he has a deep understanding of this old friend's preferences and values ​​​​over the years that he can still stay in the important position of Hokage Assistant to this day, and no one can shake him.

'And there's...'

That little guy from the Thousand Hands clan registered in front of that crazy woman. . .

Although he didn't want to admit it, even though Tsunade had no intention of coming back for so long, he knew that if he really touched Senju Mayuki, that woman would most likely...

Do not……

He will definitely not save any face for himself.

"They are the light of Konoha, not suitable for the roots."

Danzo concluded this.

It's just to develop a useful chess piece, there's no point in getting into trouble with two troublesome people over something like this.

The subordinates didn’t know that so many thoughts had already passed through the leader’s mind in such a short time. He just followed the leader’s words and expressed his opinion: “I can already imagine that in the future, all departments will try their best to win over him. "

"Yes."

Danzo slowly stood up from his chair.

Over the years, he has stood behind the Third Hokage, shouldering the dark side of the village. Recently, he has also deeply felt that his body is not as light as before.

Although he is not so old that he is close to death, he has reached the age where he should consider his lifespan.

Ten years later, 20 years later...

I don’t know which day I will definitely move toward death.

Before that, he thought he still had something to accomplish:

Cut off the inherent bane of Konoha Village!

This is the job he took over from the Second Hokage and spent his whole life completing.

"A talent that has not yet been dyed with any color..."

Danzo looked out the window. It was dark outside and very peaceful, as if he was enjoying a brief moment of peace.

This man who had lived through many wars missed the murderous nights in the past.

"First of all, let's meet him."

……

"...Although the war is over, the world is still not stable..."

"...For us young ninjas, this is not something that has nothing to do with us..."

"...Living as a ninja will definitely not be a smooth road..."

"...Take everything you learn in the ninja school as nourishment, and implement your own ninja way as a Konoha ninja!"

After reading the speech aloud, Senju Maysuki slowly put away the scroll, and then glanced at the graduates, current students, parents, and teachers in the audience.

The student life that I had been looking forward to so much came to an end.

"Valedictorian, Senju Mayuki."

The fact that he took the stage to deliver a speech as a graduate representative seemed to have caused a lot of controversy among the teachers.

Because most graduates are 12 years old.

There are also students like the three of them who have excellent academic performance and graduated at a young age.

But even so, seven is still too young.

Even if their grades, thinking, and strength are no worse than those of fresh graduates, or even much higher, they still look too young when standing in front of other graduates.

Also, one more thing...

In fact, the first proposed graduate representative was Itachi, and Senju Maysuki had no objections to this matter. In his opinion, it was just a name and had no practical significance.

But in the end, the graduate spot fell to him.

Just because Itachi's last name was Uchiha, and his last name was Senju.

The group, which is dominated by teachers whose families are related to the Senju clan, has shown an extremely tough attitude on this point, and even the third generation Hokage can't change anything.

Graduation season is in March, and countless cherry blossom petals are flying on campus, which is very beautiful.

Izumi, who was almost a body-jutsu maniac, rarely had the interest to drag Senju Mayuki around the campus to remember her, and kept talking about the various things he had done in school and the things he had not had time to do.

"That is……"

Occasionally, he saw several figures blocking Itachi's way outside the school gate.

"Oh, that's Itachi's family. The man is his father, Mr. Fugaku, who is also the leader of the Uchiha clan. The woman is his mother, Aunt Mikoto. As for the little bean cur~"

Quan, who had been chattering non-stop, suddenly became interested and ran over to pick up Little Douding.

"Ah~~Sasuke is so cute~~~oooo~~~"

'...That's the second pillar...that's really the second pillar!Good guy~ You are treating the future princess like a cat...'

"Ah~! Kah! Kah!"

Sasuke, who couldn't speak yet, seemed to be frightened. He burst into tears and kept patting in Izumi's arms and pushing hard in Itachi's direction.

"Eh?"

Quan was deeply shocked and could only watch Itachi take Sasuke over, and the little guy immediately smiled again.

"Eh???"

Quan was deeply hit x2.

"Haha, Quan, long time no see~"

Itachi's mother greeted him, and Izumi quickly recovered from his disappointment. While returning the greeting, he also introduced Senju Mayuki, who was following behind.

Mikoto smiled and talked to them, while Fugaku looked at him deeply, but didn't say anything.

But just as a few people were happily chatting about homely things, a man who seemed to have a low-pressure aura suddenly walked next to them.

This is a dim man...

The right side of his face was covered with bandages, and he was dressed in black clothes, but his left shoulder and arm were not covered, revealing the white clothes underneath.

Anyway, several people said their laughter immediately disappeared when they saw the man.

'This look... Danzo. '

"Are you Uchiha Itachi?"

Ignoring everyone, including the Uchiha clan leader, Danzo just looked down at Itachi and asked.

He stared at Itachi with his left eye, and Itachi met his gaze head on.

Behind Danzo, Mikoto grabbed her husband's hand uneasily.

"You have a fierce look on your face."

"fierce look?"

"It's a look that causes riots. That's what your wrinkles are."

After finishing speaking, Danzo pointed to Itachi's two nasolabial folds from his eyes to his cheeks.

"You're going to have turbulence in your life."

These words seemed to drop a little dirt in the clear sky...

Who is this man?

"The genius since the founding of the Ninja School, I have something to ask you."

Itachi said nothing, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"On a ship that is about to sink, there are ten of your compatriots on board. One of them is suffering from a malignant infectious disease. If he continues to live, the other nine will also fall ill and die. If you are this ship Captain, how would you judge?"

Itachi thought to himself, how could the other person ask such a question to someone they met for the first time?

However, in the next moment, Itachi still answered:

"The sick person will die no matter what. This is his fate. If I were the captain, my top priority should be how to save the lives of the other nine people. I would choose to kill one and save the nine."

Danzo smiled proudly after hearing this.

"Your answer was clear and concise."

He took a step forward, getting closer to Itachi.

"I will look forward to the day when I see you again."

He said in a whisper as he walked past Itachi.
