Naruto: I open a pet shop in the Ninja world.

The day after saying goodbye to Chi Qing, Naruto's hotel room welcomed two guests.

Naruto was still asleep when there was a knock on the door.

He rubbed his eyes and opened the door half asleep: "Who~"

When he looked up, a tall figure blocked his view.

The fangs and teeth that appeared when he grinned looked extremely sharp: "Excuse me, good morning~ young~"

Naruto tilted his head: "Who are you looking for, uncle?"

"Looking for you." Kisame smiled "kindly": "Would it be convenient for us to come in?"

Naruto turned his head and saw Itachi who was blocked by Kisame. He said in surprise: "Itachi-brother!"

Itachi nodded, "Long time no see, Naruto."

Naruto turned aside to let them in. "Why are you here? Uncle just left yesterday. Didn't he come to look for you?"

When Chi Qing was mentioned, Itachi's eyes flickered, and his ears, which were covered by his hair, felt a little hot: "There are still a few days until the time we agreed on."

Itachi took off his shoes and entered the house first, glancing at Kisame.

Kisame understood what he meant, shrugged helplessly, and took off his shoes.

"I see~ The uncle set off yesterday~" Naruto went to prepare tea for them: "Is this uncle Itachi's friend?" Naruto looked at Kisame.

"We're partners!" Kisame answered the question for Itachi and grinned: "My name is Kisame, nice to meet you~ Uzumaki Naruto..." The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and the family of Itachi's lover.

Kisame glanced at Itachi calmly.

Itachi took a sip of his tea, "I was passing by here and heard that a white-haired man and a blonde boy showed up here recently. I thought it might be you, so I came to say hello."

"Hee~ I'm practicing in this place with Master Lecherous Sage! I haven't seen Brother Itachi for a long time, and Sasuke is still talking about you~" The last time he saw Itachi was many years ago. Naruto held his face and looked at Itachi's current appearance.

Itachi-kun is really getting more and more handsome~ It must be because he looks more like Aunt Mikoto~

Then he frowned and said with some concern: "Brother Itachi, you look so bad, are you feeling unwell? You still have dark circles under your eyes, are you taking good care of yourself?"

Based on Itachi's understanding of Sasuke, the words Sasuke said about him were probably not good things.

Thinking of his brother complaining to Naruto about himself, Itachi couldn't help but want to laugh: "I'm fine, we should leave now, say hello to Sasuke for me."

Just as they finished a cup of tea, they got up and left.

"Well, okay, Itachi-kun, take good care of yourself!" Naruto found a scroll and unsealed it, which was a rice ball that was convenient for taking out: "This is made by my uncle~"

One copy was given to Itachi and one copy was given to Kisame.

After leaving, Kisame looked at the rice ball in his hand, feeling a little subtle: "Has Mr. Itachi softened his heart?"

"Jiraiya is nearby, it's not worth it to take action here." Itachi glanced at him and said, "Tomorrow, I will act alone."

"That's true~ As expected of Mr. Itachi, you are very thoughtful. Are you going to see your lover?" Kisame didn't forget the agreement they made when they met last time: "Speaking of which, Mr. Itachi's birthday is coming soon~"

"Yeah." Itachi just responded. It didn't matter whether Kisame believed the previous words or not.

"I see. I'll wish Mr. Itachi a happy birthday in advance. I'll come find you when the time comes." Kisame changed direction: "I wish you a happy birthday."

Itachi paused, then thanked him and headed for the agreed location.

……

When Jiraiya came back, he found a strange smell in Naruto's room.

He jumped in through the window and looked around: "Has anyone been here?"

"Yes~ It's Itachi-nii and his...partner? An uncle named Kisame."

Jiraiya's face turned pale and he turned Naruto over several times: "Are you okay?"

Naruto was confused, "No, they drank their tea and left."

"I'm glad you're okay," Jiraiya was both relieved and worried.

Fortunately, Naruto was lucky enough and nothing happened when facing these two S-rank rebel ninjas.

I am also worried that Itachi will not be held accountable by the organization for his obvious let-down.

The meeting between Naruto and Itachi happened earlier.
