Chapter 7 Even geniuses are so cunning
Chapter 7 Even geniuses are so cunning
The next morning.
After finishing his breakfast, Itachi Uchiha put down his chopsticks and said, "Father, Mother, I'm full. I'm going out to train."
"Hmm." Fugaku Uchiha glanced at his eldest son and gave a curt reply.
Just as Itachi was about to step out the door, Fugaku finally couldn't help but ask, "Itachi, you came back very early from your training yesterday. Did something happen?"
Seeing that Itachi hadn't responded for a while, Fugaku Uchiha continued, "Itachi, I hope you can understand that as the eldest son of the family, everyone has high expectations for you. Although the clan is currently gaining momentum and has a much better relationship with the village, you can't neglect your training."
Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha stopped in his tracks. "Father, I understand. Yesterday was just an exception. I will spend more time training from now on."
"It's good that you understand." Upon hearing the accurate reply, Fugaku Uchiha smiled, quite satisfied with Itachi's attitude.
Stepping outside, Itachi Uchiha saw several clansmen of similar age laughing and playing together, and the image of Ye involuntarily appeared in his mind, "He'll have playmates now."
"Perhaps it can be more than just playmates."
Uchiha Itachi suddenly thought of something, and his face turned red, but he quickly composed himself and walked towards the training ground much faster than usual.
"call..."
"My body is still too weak. I was exhausted after only five sets of treatments."
Uchiha Ye, exhausted, sat down under a large tree, panting heavily and muttering a few words.
Just as she was about to circulate her meridians to recover her strength and energy, she saw Itachi Uchiha walking over.
"It's still a while before the agreed time, why are you here so early?"
"Haha... Luckily she anticipated this and arrived for training even earlier than him. Let's see who can outdo whom!"
Uchiha Ye chuckled to himself, giving himself a thumbs-up for his cleverness.
"call out..."
A kunai ripped through the sky and hurtled towards Itachi Uchiha.
He easily dodged it, but the kunai that had been launched flew out returned to him again.
As Itachi dodged, two more shuriken flew towards him from the left and right.
This was naturally done by Uchiha Yo.
She truly hadn't expected that after all her hard work training in 'throwing techniques,' she wouldn't even be able to touch the hem of Itachi Uchiha's clothes.
"Is there really such a big difference between geniuses?"
Uchiha Ye naturally categorized himself as such, thinking to himself with a sense of unease.
Uchiha Itachi had somehow appeared beside her. "Ye, your things."
She snapped out of her daze, took the kunai and two shuriken from Itachi's hand, and praised him without reservation, "Itachi, you're amazing! I didn't scare you, did I?"
"No, I'm actually very happy," Itachi Uchiha replied, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Ye was utterly speechless.
"Okay... as long as you're happy... as long as you're happy."
She silently recited it in her heart, and after a while spoke, "Itachi, let's each begin our training!"
Itachi nodded.
The two then each found a spot and began their cultivation.
Uchiha Yoh initially found it strange that someone was standing nearby, but later, immersed in his training, he forgot about it.
When she was so tired that she wanted to rest, she found that Itachi Uchiha was still training hard.
"Big brother, you're already a genius, there's no need to be so stubborn!"
"Leave a way out for those around you!"
Seeing this, Uchiha Ye didn't dare to rest for long. He quickly circulated his meridians to restore his condition and then got up to continue training.
Perhaps because he had someone with him, Itachi Uchiha realized that time was passing quickly. He looked up at the sky and saw that it was slowly getting dark.
After quickly packing my things, I prepared to say goodbye to Ye.
Turning his head, he found Ye standing beside him, looking like she wanted to say something but didn't dare.
Uchiha Yoh hesitated for a long time before finally mustering the courage to come over, hoping that he could teach her some cultivation-related questions.
When she met those eyes, she immediately swallowed back the words she wanted to say.
"Uchiha Yo, Uchiha Yo, you really are a spineless coward!"
She inwardly mocked herself, intending to ask Itachi for guidance on her training, but instead said, "Itachi, let's go back together!"
"What!" Itachi was clearly taken aback.
Ye actually invited him to travel together. Does this mean their relationship has taken another step forward?
Seeing that Itachi hadn't responded for a while, Uchiha Ha spoke up again, "Itachi, if you don't want to, I'll go back first."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave when she was pulled back by a force.
A muffled groan sounded, and Uchiha Ye looked at him with a hint of resentment.
"Big brother, are you doing this on purpose? Why do you keep pulling her like that? Don't think that just because you're Itachi Uchiha, she won't dare to hit you. When she gets angry, she doesn't care about anyone."
It's strange, though, that Itachi hasn't asked her about the spoilers she gave that night, leaving her with no excuse to use.
Perhaps this is the difference between games and the real world!
Uchiha Yoh quickly found a perfect excuse for himself.
Itachi seemed to notice the displeasure in Ye's eyes and quickly let go of her hand. "Ye, I was just too happy. From now on, I'll take you home every day, okay?"
The two were now quite close, and Itachi Uchiha's face slowly turned red, his heart skipping a beat.
Uchiha Yoh's focus was not on this at all.
"She was puzzled. When did she say she wanted him to deliver it?"
After a long silence, she finally nodded in agreement.
"Once she gets stronger, she'll definitely refuse next time, she definitely will," Uchiha Ye encouraged himself, determined not to admit that he was forced by her fame.
When Itachi Uchiha returned home, he found that his father seemed to be waiting for him as soon as he entered the door.
"Itachi, what's the deal with that girl?"
A flash of anger crossed Itachi's face, but he quickly regained his composure. He hadn't expected his father to send someone to monitor him.
He gestured with his lip, "Father, as fellow clansmen, I don't think there's anything wrong with being closer. Besides, she's the same age as me and can already use the Great Fireball Technique, so she must be an extraordinary genius."
“I don’t think there’s any harm in training with such a genius.”
“Father, I have my own plans for my own affairs, and they will absolutely not affect my cultivation.”
This was the first time Fugaku Uchiha had seen Itachi like this. He sighed before speaking, "Itachi, since you have your own plans, I will not interfere anymore, but I will test your strength every now and then."
"If you don't meet my expectations, you should understand what the consequences will be."
Itachi was surprised that his father agreed so easily, and immediately promised, "Father, I will definitely not let you down."
"Hmm, you must be tired after a day of cultivation. Go and rest!"
Fugaku Uchiha suddenly remembered something and added, "Itachi, if you have time, play with your younger brother for a while. He misses his older brother a lot lately."
“I will make time, Father.”
