"Everyone is very clear about Anbu's root system stealing the file. Since Konoha has reached this point by any means, we don't need to keep our hands." The old man's voice was like a bell, "Shishui, how is your situation?"

The Uchiha secret place - not the building that Chie explored - in this real secret place, the Great Elder stands in front of the stage.

Uchiha Shimizu took a step forward and said respectfully: "No problem, I started with Obito-senpai in the past three years and gained the trust of the fourth-generation disciple Hatake Kakashi. Now most of the Naruto-type ninjas, even the third-generation Hokage himself Trust me a lot."

"Very well, let's start preparing for entering the Anbu," the elder nodded, "Take Itachi, and within half a year, I want to see you appear in the Anbu's Hokage's direct troops."

Zhishui was taken aback.

"Bring Itachi? But he is just a child, and he has never participated in a rally, and has never understood the conflicts between the clan and the village..."

"Then let him join the assembly," the Great Elder interrupted Shisui, "Although Itachi is young and half a point behind you in terms of talent, but in terms of wisdom and awareness, even you are far behind. After a hundred years, I will sit on Fuyue." The position of Great Elder, and Itachi is the best candidate for Uchiha's next patriarch, don't blindly protect you just because he regards you as your elder brother."

"...Yes." Zhishui lowered his head and did not refute.

"Perhaps it is not necessary to let Itachi join the gathering now," said Uchiha Fugaku, who was under the head of the Great Elder, suddenly, "We can send him directly to Anbu, and then reveal our true purpose a little bit."

The Great Elder remained silent and motioned him to continue.

Fuyue pondered for a while, and said: "The third generation and the Konoha elders are harmonious on the surface, but judging from the conflicting attitudes towards Uchiha from the Hokage directly under the Anbe and the 'root' troops, at least in matters related to our clan. In fact, they have great differences, and have even been completely divided into two factions."

"So we have two enemies."

The great elder frowned.

"You mean...in addition to Shisui who is close to the Hokage Party, we also need a spy to convey news about another enemy. This spy has to be close to the Konoha Elders?"

"To be precise, he is getting closer to Anbu's 'root' system." Fugaku nodded, "But the head of the root department Shimura Danzo is aggressive and has a very suspicious personality. It is impossible for him to trust anyone in our Uchiha clan. To get information about the roots and the elders, the only way to do the opposite is to let him get a Uchiha that he can use."

Uchiha Mikoto raised her head abruptly, eyes widening.

"And the Uchiha who can be used by such a suspicious person at ease..." He tried to ignore the sharp gaze behind him—from his wife, "This person can neither believe in Konoha nor hate the clan, he must Falling into conflict and pain, you must be truly forced into a desperate situation...Only in this way, Shimura Danzo will make a move." Fuyue paused, and his voice became difficult, "But Itachi...I know him very well, he is too tough a child , there is only one way to push him into a desperate situation.”

"Lonely and helpless, without relatives."

Shisui looked at him in disbelief.

Such a father...such a family...

There is also such "unscrupulous".

He looked at the tense and determined faces of every clansman, and his breathing was stagnant.

Five months later, on June [-]th.

Uchiha Itachi returned home at noon - he applied to the Shisui squad leader of this Anbu training class to leave early, in order to catch up with his 11th birthday party.

Although he doesn't care much about birthdays, he is even more unwilling to disappoint his brother and Yuki. They have been preparing for it since a month ago.

"So don't worry about my feelings!" Zhishui said angrily, "Do you know how many tasks you will leave behind when you go back early! The one who cleans up the mess for you is me! It's me!"

"Then thank you Brother Zhishui." He smiled.

Itachi...it's easy to lose your temper.Zhishui thought angrily, but couldn't help laughing: "Go back and be with your family and little girlfriend, anyway, I'm a hard worker."

"This kind of joke can't be played casually," Itachi's face tensed, "Yuki and I are just childhood sweethearts. Brother Zhishui's words will disturb her very much."

"...I'm sorry, the little girlfriend I said refers to the five-finger girl, because you are 11 years old and you have reached the age where you should grow up, so I just made a dirty joke about you. I didn't expect you to mention Yuki. I'm sorry, I'm single. The heart is the belly of the winner in life."

Zhishui said indifferently: "Now, please get away from me quickly."

Itachi tilted his head: "?"

Zhishui threw out a folder: "I mean you can get lost!"

A certain person who can get out of here just went through the window without saying a word.

"Itachi/Brother Happy Birthday!"

Back home, the first thing that greeted him was the salute attack from the entrance, accompanied by loud blessings, among which Sasuke's excitedly broken voice was particularly prominent.

"Brother! Mom made a lot of delicious food today!"

Everything seemed to press the slow-motion button, colorful fireworks gently fluttered in the room, and fell again, some fell to the ground, and some stuck to his shoulders.

Father, mother, Sasuke, Yuki.

His relatives and close friends.

It doesn't get any better than this.

He looked at Yuki holding an ugly birthday cake that looked like it was homemade, and thought of Shisui who was helping Anbe to complete the task now, and felt as if he was loved by everyone.

His face became a little unnatural, and he put this idea of ​​being neither a ninja nor an elite behind him.

On June [-]th, there were still [-] days left before the time required by the Great Elder for Itachi to officially enter Anbu, and less than two months before their plan started.

In fact, in such a beautiful day now, anything that is not pleasant should not be thought of.

But Mikoto Uchiha would never forget it no matter what, she just counted the time like this, every minute and every second, trying her best to give her child the last favor.

In fact, her husband is also cooperating with her, acquiescing to Yuki and Sasuke's two children to arrange balloons and stickers at home, and quietly post simple and high-paying family tasks when Yuki is free, giving her the opportunity to earn birthday funds.He kept his composure and gave his eldest son the best birthday.

After all, it is the last.

Mikoto closed her eyes, the plan at the rally that day almost became her nightmare.

——If this plan is followed, Itachi will be excluded from the selection of the next patriarch.You know, even if we clarify everything to him afterwards, it is impossible for Uchiha to accept a patriarch who once hated the clan, and he will not even entrust him with important tasks in the future. son.Fuyue, even so, are you willing?

——Just like Kagami-senpai back then was also the son of the Great Elder, but for the glory of Uchiha...

——Yes, for the glory of Uchiha.

The dinner was very sumptuous, and for the first time, the three children were allowed to taste a small amount of plum wine.

After the meal, Yuki winked and quietly pulled Itachi aside.

"Itachi, let me tell you, birthday cakes are difficult to make. Although I am already a very ingenious girl, it is really difficult to make."

Oh, it's justification for a gift that tastes weird and looks to be improved.

Itachi nodded knowingly.

"So... Granny Mei also taught me chocolates that are easier to make, and recently the mold shop's heart-shaped dessert molds are very discounted, so I bought them and used them when they were cheap." Yuki turned her face slightly, and handed over a package Exquisite gift box, "for you."

Itachi took her gift and thanked her, but Zhishui's words "little girlfriend" suddenly entered his mind.

……

little girlfriend...

With some fear, he thought of the little pink fist of the girlfriend who led the Jonin, the big sister Akimichi.

But speaking of it, he still has one question he wants to ask Yuki.

"Brother Zhishui told a joke today, I didn't seem to understand it, but I remember that you have made a lot of achievements in terms of jokes," Itachi said seriously, "He told me so, let me repeat it."

"I'm sorry, the little girlfriend I said refers to the five-finger girl, because you are 11 years old and you have reached the age where you should grow up, so I just told you a dirty joke to make fun of you."

Then he stood at attention again, opening a pair of pure big eyes: "What does this mean?"

Yuki was heartbroken.

She thought for a while, then took out a colorful little book from her bosom, and said with some pain: "Senior Zhishui is right, when you grow up, many boys your age are well-read , I think it’s time for you to read more profound philosophical books, come on, I’m optimistic about you.”

"Kiss Paradise"

Itachi took the book, holding Yuki's chocolate gift box in the other hand, the sweet taste of the birthday cake in his mouth has not dissipated.

Yuki gave me three presents for my birthday this time...

he thought gratefully.

Yuki kid...

Mikoto looked at the girl who was smiling narrowly at Itachi from afar.

Yuki is Itachi's only friend besides Shisui who has already been deeply involved.

As the patriarch, the husband can be ruthless and push the parents and children into a desperate situation, but she is a mother, and no mother can sit back and watch her children fall into a helpless situation, at least Miqin will never allow it.

There are some things that the patriarch's wife can't do. Uchiha's situation is already very difficult. She can't destroy the family plan in the open, but if she just leaves a little light for her son in the dark...

She wanted to keep Yuki, she couldn't let her go deep into the core of the family, and she couldn't join the plan to isolate Itachi.

Mikoto was packing up the bowls and chopsticks, and saw Sasuke rushing into her brother's arms with hands full of cream.

Not just Yuki, but also her youngest son.Sasuke will always stand by Itachi's side, and they will be brothers who support each other.

Things are never that bad.

But for Uchiha Mikoto at this time, she thought that the worst outcome was nothing more than that.
