Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 22

"I believe that if there is a need, you will tell me at the right time.!"

"If it's difficult to speak out, why should I continue to ask?"

Minato saw Itachi's confusion and smiled lightly.

In fact, there are more than just the reasons he mentioned.

Because after thinking just now, he had some vague inferences.

If the future is as Itachi said, Madara manipulated Nine-Tails to attack Konoha, and he and Kushina died for it.

Having just experienced the third Ninja World War, the village whose vitality has not yet recovered has suffered such a huge blow, the prospect is not difficult to foresee.

And the series of incidents that were implicated in it after that, I'm afraid it was the reason why Itachi couldn't talk about it.

He knows the conditions for the opening of the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, so Itachi must have suffered some huge changes because of these later events.

These may be the reasons why he is unwilling to confess things to Mikoto and Fugaku.

What Minato wants is to protect the village and the people he loves, and since Itachi has already revealed the future events, he must prepare early to prevent Madara's plot from succeeding.

The future after that will change as well, so there's no point in dwelling on these things now.

Itachi probably came to confess these things to him with this belief.

"Thank you for your understanding!"

Itachi bowed towards Minato. After today's meeting, he already had to admire Minato in front of him.

If the fourth generation had not died in the Nine-Tails Incident, everything in the future might be different.

Minato looked at Itachi who was gradually relieved, but he could see an unusual heaviness from the look in his eyes.

"Is it about the future?"

Minato murmured in his heart, although he could not foresee the future, it was not difficult to imagine it, with Itachi's talent and mind, and the Mangekyo Sharingan.

The future Itachi must be very strong.

With Itachi's prudence, if it weren't for the time when Madara launched the conspiracy so close, Itachi would probably bury these things in his heart forever, and then bear it all by himself.

As a result, Minato suddenly remembered another thing.

"Fuyue came to me yesterday. The decision not to enter the ninja school should be made by yourself, right?"

Minato asked, today's conversation also made him extremely admire Itachi.

But he also noticed some problems with Itachi.

Minato's wife is the Jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi, so he is much more sensitive to the observation of people's hearts than most people.

During the Third Ninja War, on the battlefield against the Cloud Ninja Village, Minato once warned the current Fourth Raikage about the problems with his younger brother, the Eight-Tailed Jinchūriki.

Although Itachi is not a Jinchuuriki, considering the experiences he may have, Itachi's thoughts may be more complicated than those of Kushina and Ra.

"Yes." Itachi replied, he was a little surprised, how could Minato suddenly bring up this matter.

After getting the answer, Minato didn't have to ask him why.

And it is not difficult to come up with a reason for Fuyue to agree to this matter with Itachi's mind.

Minato pondered for a moment and looked at Itachi, with a twinkling look in his eyes.

"It must be very hard for one person to carry these things?"

Itachi stared into Minato's eyes, his heart trembling slightly.

Because this sentence just touched the deepest bitterness in Itachi's heart.

As long as you are human, you will have emotions. Itachi once carried everything in the darkness to the end of his life.

No one had ever asked Itachi such a question.

Deep in his heart, why doesn't he hope to be understood.

He lowered his eyes gradually, and said in a heavy voice: "I, like you, also want to protect what I cherish. In order to achieve my goal, I must pay some price, which is inevitable."

But Itachi's heart has long lost its tenacity, so he can shoulder everything again.

"Yes."

Minato responded noncommittally, but then changed the topic: "Although we are ninjas, there are things we can't do alone, aren't we?"

Itachi nodded, unable to deny it.

Because he used to want to try to bear everything, but the final result was not ideal.

"I absolutely believe in your individual abilities, but sometimes, no matter who you are, the pressure needs to be shared."

"One person can bear everything, and no one can bear it." Minato stretched out his palm and patted Itachi on the shoulder.

"Although I am Hokage, there are many things I cannot do."

Minato smiled and said, "It is precisely because of the trust and support of my companions that I can get to where I am today."

In the Third Ninja War, Minato was indeed the biggest contributor, but without everyone in Konoha, how could he have resisted the coalition forces of the other four countries with his own strength.

"companion..."

Itachi's expression changed slightly, because Shishui seemed to be the only person around him who could be called a companion from the beginning to the end.

It was precisely because Minato was aware of this that he wanted to help Itachi relieve the pressure in his heart.

Minato continued: "Just like you choose to tell me your secret, whether proactively or passively, at least I can complete for you for a period of time what you can't do yourself."

He smiled and looked at Itachi: "Similarly, if the village encounters the current crisis again in the future, or even a more serious situation, I will also need to rely on you and everyone's strength."

"With your brain, you must know what I want to say, right?"

Of course Itachi understood Minato's words, and in fact, Mikoto had already said similar words to him.

It's just that Mikoto doesn't know all these things like Minato now.

So although she was worried about Itachi's problem, she couldn't find a good way to convince him.

Minato's words made Itachi fall into deep thought.

But as time went by, Minato's childish face illuminated by the moonlight could be seen in front of him, and the heavy expression he had before gradually disappeared.

But a person's character and style of doing things have been formed over the years, and no one can completely change it with just one word.

Itachi slowly raised his eyes, looked at Minato, and said, "Master Hokage, thank you for your reminder. I will think about this matter after I go back."

Minato nodded and said with a smile: "In that case, how about you go back to the ninja school to learn it again?"

Itachi frowned and said, "That's not necessary."

"Don't be in a hurry to reject me."

Minato smiled and said: "I know that the courses in the ninja school are almost meaningless to you. You may think that learning it again is just a waste of time."

"But the only thing you are missing is that it can be perfected there!"
