Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

377 chapter

Naruto's character is such that after realizing that what he said did question the abilities of others, he readily admitted his mistakes.Mobile terminal m..

Thinking about it from his perspective, if he was standing in the martial arts arena just now and heard someone say this to him, he would definitely be very unhappy...

But such a quick change in his attitude made the young man who was about to draw his sword just now seem a little at a loss.

Immediately, the boy began to look at Itachi, Naruto, Hinata, and Sai beside him with his eyes.

Seeing the forehead protectors worn by the three people at different locations on their bodies, the young man recognized where the four of them came from.

"Konoha Ninja?"

"It really isn't an ordinary boy."

Itachi let go of the boy's wrist. Although today's world is dominated by ninjas, most people in the non-ninja world have heard of the names of the five major ninja countries and the five major ninja villages.

But by observing the forehead protectors, he knew that they were Konoha ninjas, something ordinary samurai couldn't do, especially since the boy was still so young.

But now that this little "misunderstanding" has been resolved, Itachi and the others no longer need to stay here.

"Let's go."

Itachi jumped off the arena and landed next to Naruto, Hinata, and Sai, and said with a sideways glance.

"Ah."

The three of them responded one after another, turned around one after another, and left with Itachi.

Although the boy in the martial arts arena was a little arrogant, his character was not that bad. After accepting Naruto's apology for what happened just now, he didn't take it to heart anymore.

But when Itachi, Sai and the others turned around to leave, the young man's eyes fell on Sai's back.

Since he has been practicing the combination of swordsmanship and genjutsu during this period of time, the tachi given by Minato has become Sai's personal weapon, and he has been carrying it behind his back when performing tasks.

"and many more!"

The boy suddenly made a sound and jumped down from the martial arts arena. His body flipped around and blocked the way for the four Itachis to leave.

Itachi and his party stopped.

Naruto looked at the young man standing in front of him, frowned slightly, and said, "What do you want to do?"

But the boy didn't look at him at all, his eyes were entirely on Sai.

"You also know sword skills?" the boy asked.

According to Sai's personality, of course he would not answer the questions raised by such strangers.

Sai didn't respond, but Itachi probably understood what the boy in front of him wanted to do.

Looking at Sai's face, which had no movement at all, the young man suddenly raised his slender katana and said to Sai, "Do you dare to compete with me?"

At this time, the eyes of many ronin and warriors around the arena turned over one after another.

Because the distance between them is not too far, it can be seen clearly that there are not a few Konoha forehead guards worn by the Itachi four.

Many of this group of ronin had traveled to various countries and had extensive knowledge, so it didn't take long for someone to identify where Itachi and the others were from through their forehead protectors.

Facing the many eyes gathered around him, the samurai boy didn't take it seriously, he just stared at Sai.

Naruto and Hinata looked around, the latter was not used to being watched by so many people.

The opponent had already put the weapon in front of him, and Sai could not react at all.

He raised his eyes and said to the warrior boy, "I'm not interested."

Strictly speaking, he is still on a mission, and even if it is normal, Sai has no habit of competing with others.

Before setting off on this mission, Minato and Itachi jointly asked Naruto not to have any disputes with samurai in the Iron Kingdom.

Although the current situation does not seem to be a dispute, Saii does not intend to fight with the other party.

Because it doesn't make sense at all.

"Let's go."

Also ignoring the gazes of the ronin and samurai around him, Sai said to the three Itachi beside him.

As soon as Sai took a step forward, in front of him, the eyes of the young man holding a samurai sword across his side suddenly became sharp, as if the edge had been wiped off. He slowly raised the corners of his mouth and said in a joking voice.

"It seems that apart from your teacher, Konoha's kid ninjas don't have any skills, and they don't even have the courage to be challenged."

The boy not only knew that the Itachi four were Konoha ninjas, but also clearly understood Konoha's team system.

Hearing the boy's words, Itachi and Naruto stopped in their tracks.

Of course Itachi would not be provoked by such a childish provocation, but the three of Sai, who were obviously targeted by the words, could not pretend nothing happened.

Sai frowned, and the expression on Hinata's face was also frozen.

Naruto couldn't bear it anymore, he stared and said angrily, "What did you say!?"

He glanced at the samurai sword that the young man was still holding horizontally, and said, "Do you want to fight? I'll accompany you!"

Saying that, Naruto raised his fist to take action.

"Naruto, wait."

At this moment, Saoi took a step forward and stood in front of Naruto. He looked at the boy and said, "I apologize for what you just said."

"This kid..."

Itachi looked at Sai standing in front of Naruto. He knew the latter's character. What the samurai boy said was obviously intended to provoke him and provoke him into fighting.

If it was the old Sai, he would have ignored this kind of provocation.

But the situation is different now, no matter what the boy's purpose is, his words insulted the village, and more importantly, provoked his valued companion.

The opponent was provoking him, and Sai would not let his companion stand in front of him to fight.

"If you think there is anything wrong with what I said, prove it with your own strength." The young man made eye contact with Sai and said slowly.

Sai frowned slightly, turned his gaze to Itachi next to him.

Itachi nodded at him.

Having received Itachi's agreement so quickly, Sai couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

In fact, Itachi didn't take the boy's provocation to heart. Even though there were many people watching, the strength of Konoha and Konoha ninjas did not need to be proven through a battle of this level.

But Itachi knows Naruto's character very well, and he will definitely not give up easily.

Of course, the most important thing is that Itachi doesn't want to stop Saii's dedication to protect his companions.

And this young man is obviously not an ordinary samurai, he can make so many samurai and ronin around him suppress the anger of being provoked, his sword skills must be extraordinary.

Itachi didn't want Sai to continue to practice his sword skills, and gave him a development direction that was most suitable for him.

But after all, the knife is used as a weapon, and the training of the knife technique is also necessary.

The young man in front of him should be able to give Sai some good inspiration in swordsmanship.

That's why Itachi agreed to Sai's challenge.

Sai turned his eyes back, stared at the young man in front of him, his face remained motionless, and he said in an extremely gentle voice.

"I accept your challenge."
