It doesn't matter, Lord Kazekage will make a move

Chapter 263 Happy Sunday
In the early morning, it had just rained last night, and the fragrance of mud and grass remained in the air, which also washed away the bloody smell brought back by the scarred Uchiha ninja.

Uchiha Fugaku pinched the center of his eyebrows, the headache from last night's hangover was slightly relieved.

As a ninja, hangovers are a big no-no.

However, the great sense of accomplishment brought about by defeating Konoha's conspiracy still made the Uchiha speaker, who is strict with himself, indulge a little after arranging the security matters.

Thus, Fuyue closed his eyes and opened them until dawn. If Mikoto hadn't called him to get up, he would have almost missed seeing Kazekage-sama and his son off.

"My lord, would you like to say a few words to Kazekage-sama now?"

Uchiha Fugaku said politely to Anbe in front of him.

If it was an ordinary Anbu, he would not be so polite, but even though the battle was tense that day, he still stopped Orochimaru when he saw Anbu alone.

As an old ninja who has been cultivating in Konoha for so many years, he knows the strength of Orochimaru very well. He is qualified to talk to him on an equal footing if he can stop Orochimaru.

Xie shook his head, and said in a flat tone: "Master Fengying is not very convenient right now."

After finishing speaking, his tone paused, and he turned his head slightly to look at the carriage compartment: "Itachi, come out and see your father for the last time."

Uchiha Fugaku pursed his lips, feeling that the words were ambiguous, but he didn't refute, just looked at his son who came out of the carriage.

Last night, he drank with his clansmen until late at night, and he didn't have a chance to talk to his son before leaving. Now he just happened to make up for what he didn't do last night.

Scorpion and Itachi walked past each other and entered the carriage, leaving room for the father and son.

"ferret"

Uchiha Fugaku stretched out his hand to put it on Itachi's head, but seeing his son's resolute and mature gaze, he paused for a while when he raised his hand in the air, turned and squatted down, put his hand on his shoulder, and patted hard: "Last time In the study, everything that needs to be said has been said. Your mother understands some things in life better than me, and must have already told her, so I won't go into details. "

As Uchiha Fugaku said, he took out a brand new forehead guard from his sleeve, engraved with the pattern of the Uchiha family's round fan.

He carefully fastened Uchiha Itachi and adjusted the forehead to the center. Uchiha Itachi watched all this silently, blinking his big watery eyes, as if he knew his father for the first time.

He is no longer the Uchiha patriarch with arms crossed, condescending and squinting at himself, and only cares about the progress of his ninjutsu practice, but a father.

But, why did this picture not show up until I was about to leave?

Itachi suppressed the excitement in his heart, lowered his head, and said in a calm tone that didn't fit his age: "Father, I will not shame Uchiha."

Fu Yue touched the round fan pattern on his forehead, and said softly: "Of course, my son must be the pride of the family. Itachi"

Fu Yue wanted to say something more, but he opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the words back.

"Does it look good?"

In the carriage compartment, Hoshino Mu leaned on the soft red velvet sofa seat, looked at Scorpion looking out the window, and said.

Xie took his eyes away from the father and son, turned to look at Hoshino Mu: "It would be fine if the mouth is the bad one."

Hoshino Mu's expensive puppet suffered continuous damage from Kakuzu and his own space ninjutsu, and finally went on strike, only the head and above were still able to move.

But all this did not affect Hoshino Mu's mood. He smiled and said, "Then no one will talk to you on this journey, don't you feel lonely?"

"Ninja, you should be used to being lonely. If you talk too much, you won't live long."

Scorpion said lightly.

"Humans live in groups, and no one wants to be an island. If there is only loneliness and solitude left in life, even if he has eternal life, he will die by his own hands in a year at most."

Scorpion shook his head: "This just shows that emotion is the weakness of human beings. Without emotion and eternal life, this is the final form of 'human'."

Hoshino Mu raised his chin toward Scorpion's palm and said, "If that's the case, you should be able to light me with your fingers now."

Scorpion was silent for a moment, and said: "To create a perfect container, I need to fully control my body. If it weren't for you running around, I would have completed the transformation a long time ago."

"mine"

Hoshino Mu nodded, but did not refute the other party's stubbornness.

Although his excuses are a bit far-fetched, but it is true that Scorpion runs back and forth with Konoha of Iwainin Village, and is usually responsible for his own security. How much time is busy with your own affairs.

Seeing what Hoshino Mu said, Xie Gang's anger was immediately vented. He shook his head and looked out of the window. At this time, Itachi had already said goodbye to his father and was walking towards the carriage.

Looking at each other, he suddenly thought of something, and quickly turned to Xing Yemu and said, "Would you let me bring this child back?!"

"Well, since you asked for it"

"No! Whoever likes to take him with him, if you dare to hand him over to me, I will return you a puppet!"

Looking at the scorpion with fried hair, Hoshino Mu was about to scratch his head when he remembered that he was now the ninja version of Hawking, unable to move anything except his mouth and eyes.

In order not to let himself be thrown out of the carriage in embarrassment, he quickly appeased Xie: "Okay, okay, I won't let you take it. But one thing to say, this is a very precious opportunity, don't regret it in the future."

Scorpion snorted coldly in disdain, but didn't reply.

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi opened the door and walked in. The little guy keenly felt that the atmosphere in the car was different from when he went out, but in an unfamiliar environment, he didn't say much, and sat obediently aside.

The sound of horseshoes stamping on the ground sounded, Itachi looked at the scenery outside the window and drove away, his eyes were a little blurred.

Although he was already prepared, when the moment of separation came, let alone a child, even an adult would feel melancholy.

When people say that a child is like an adult, it also means that the child's happy childhood is over.

And Itachi can't remember when he was a child, because it seems that since he can remember, his clan and his father have regarded him as a little adult.

Itachi glanced at the sky outside the window, Sasuke should be awake at this time, right?

I don't know if he will cry when he wakes up and can't see himself.

When Itachi was staring at the sky in a daze, he suddenly heard the voice of Hoshino Mu from the side.

"Itachi, there is a bag next to you, which contains a gift I prepared for you, take it out and have a look."

Itachi turned his head, looked at Hoshino Mu with a smile on his face, and was stunned for a moment, then nodded obediently, and opened the package next to him, which contained a wallet.

He took the wallet and glanced at Hoshino Mu, Hoshino Mu raised his chin, motioning for him to open it.

The moment Itachi opened it, he froze in place.

Xie was also a little curious, but in order to stabilize the character, he tilted his head and glanced at it from the corner of his eye.

There were two photos in the wallet, one was a family portrait of Uchiha Toyake's family, and the other was a photo of Sasuke sleeping soundly.

"grown ups."

Itachi squeezed the wallet, looked at half the salary, and quickly raised his head to say something.

Hoshino Mu interrupted with a smile: "This is what I should do. If you go back to Sand Hidden City with me at your age, you will definitely miss home. I discussed it with Fuyue, and he will send a photo of Sasuke every year from now on. , Of course, you can also take a picture when you go home. As I said, no one will restrict your stay."

Uchiha Itachi pursed his lips, and after a while, lowered his head and said softly, "Thank you, my lord."

Xie sat at the side, watching with cold eyes Hoshino Mu's nonsense to deceive children.

Hoshino Mu said that there is no limit, but why did Itachi follow Hoshino Mu all the way to the hidden sand city?
It is not to strengthen the connection between Uchiha and Hidden Sand City, and to evolve the Kaleidoscope Sharingan as soon as possible.

Then the stronger his feelings for his family and family, the more he must hold tightly to the big tree of hidden sand city.

In the end, when he finds out that staying in Hidden Sand City is more beneficial to his family than going back, will he go back?

Hoshino Mu didn't restrict him, but his strong affection for his family would turn into a strong rope to tie him to the chariot of Hidden Sand City.

The speed of the carriage was slower than when it came, mainly because the New Year was approaching, and Hoshino Mu took this opportunity to bring last year's end-of-year awards to the sand ninjas of Kawa no Kokuni and the Eastern Forest, so that everyone can have a good year.

The fly in the ointment is that originally he planned to hand out the rewards to each ninja himself, but if he shows up in this state, it will really damage Kazekage-sama's prestige, so he can only ask Anbu to distribute it on his behalf, and wait for them to go to Hidden Sand City , is already the last day of the year.

"Everyone has worked hard on this journey. Tomorrow is the first day. Let's go home early."

The carriage drove into the gate of the re-expansion of Shayin City, and when it stopped under the Fengying Building, a good Hoshino Mu was already waiting downstairs.

The first day is the New Year's Day of Hoshino Mu's previous life. He gave half a day off to everyone in the Kazekage Building, and then distributed the year-end awards to Anbu of Uchiha Ninja Village to these puppets who accompanied him, and his work for this year came to an end.

After everyone in Anbu left, Hoshino Mu put the puppet back into the scroll, looked at Itachi with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

To be honest, he originally planned to let Scorpion continue to lead Uchiha Itachi, who gave him experience.

But now, Hoshino Mu had no choice but to take the little guy back to his mansion first.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

Hoshino Mu took Itachi's hand, ready to walk home with him, and introduced Sha Yin City to him by the way, and said in surprise when he saw Xie following him.

"It's my duty to protect you."

Scorpion said lightly.

Although Hoshino Mu has a bad personality, as the head of Anbu, he still puts his safety first.

Hearing this, Hoshino Mu smiled and said, "Go home, the first day is the most important day of the year, and it's better to be with your family. Chiyo-sama is already waiting for you at home. Don't worry, this is the most important day of the year. Hidden City, Anbu is everywhere, no one can threaten me."

After Hoshino Mu finished speaking, Chong Xie waved his hand, took Itachi's hand and left in the direction of the mansion.

Xie looked at the backs of the two of them, and was silent for a moment. The setting sun stretched his shadow obliquely.

Finally, he turned around silently and walked towards the home that he rarely returned to.

Xie's house is not big, and the architectural style is the same as the original Shayin Village, rough and simple, with an atmosphere that is incompatible with the current bright and beautiful Shayin City.

Xie took out a rusty key chain, opened the old-fashioned wooden door, and the smell of food came out, accompanied by the sound of the plate touching the table, which made him raise his eyebrows involuntarily.

This feeling, which he hadn't experienced for a long time, gave him a strange feeling, and he even had the idea of ​​escaping.

A kind of dilemma of wanting to touch family affection but afraid of bursting the bubble.

"Scorpion? Are you back?"

Hearing the movement at the door, the room was silent, and after a while, Chiyo's voice came from inside.

"Yes"

Xie took a deep breath, walked to the grille door, opened the grille door, and saw a table of food in the dining room, Chiyo sat at the table with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

This smile was a picture never seen before in Scorpio's memory.

Scorpion lost his parents during World War II, and Chiyo also lost his only son.

But as a mother, as the only reliance of his grandson, he still endured the grief in his heart, and together with the third Kazekage, he led Shayin Village through the difficulties, constantly fabricating lies and trying his best to give Xie a less sad childhood.

As for happiness, apart from being a little happy seeing the growth of the scorpion, she has already forgotten what happiness is.

In the end, as a somewhat nervous old woman, she probably only knew how much truth there was in her teasing laughter.

But today, Chiyo smiled very happily. That smile was not an exaggerated upturn of the corners of her mouth, nor was it a loud laugh, but the kind of emotional transmission from the heart.

dong dong——!
Scorpion seemed to have a premonition of something. He looked towards the kitchen, pursed his lips, swallowed his saliva, and his heart began to beat violently, as if to remind him constantly that even though he has been improving his puppet skills and pursuing eternity, he is still that fragile man. And low-level humans.

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

The sound of the knife being cut on the chopping board inside stopped abruptly, and a quiet and beautiful face appeared.

The moment she saw Xie, she couldn't help opening her mouth wide, bending her eyes under her embroidered eyebrows, her eyes trembling violently, after a while, she rushed out suddenly, hugged Xie's shoulders, laughed and cried bitterly.

And Xie was stunned in place, listening to the crying in his ear, like a clay sculpture for a while.

At this moment, another figure appeared in the kitchen. He had a very similar appearance to Xie, but he was much stronger than Xie.

The man looked at Xie, and the two looked at each other. Suddenly, the man spoke softly, with a bit of anxiety: "Sorry, Xie, you may not know me, I am."

"I know!"

The figure who had spent countless days and nights with him in the photo, now standing in front of him, how could he not know!
Scorpion's lips trembled violently, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, and soon his cheeks were covered with tears.

But the corners of his mouth were raised at this time.

He suddenly recalled Hoshino Mu's words just now, couldn't help lowering his head, hugged his mother's body tightly, and said softly:
"Happy Sunday."
-
"grown ups."

After leaving the carriage, Hoshino Mu and Itachi walked a distance. Itachi held Hoshino Mu's big hand, raised his head, and hesitated to speak.

"what happened?"

Hoshino Mu caught the little guy's gaze and said with a smile.

"My lord, are you... the real body now?"

Hoshino Mu's footsteps stopped, the smile on his face froze for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"Of course, why do you ask?"

"You give me the same feeling as the one in the carriage, so I'm sorry, I was rash."

As Uchiha Itachi was talking, he also realized that his question was inappropriate, so he quickly bowed and apologized.

"fine"

Hoshino Mu patted the little guy on the head, and the two continued walking.

But what Itachi couldn't see was that Hoshino Mu's gaze was a bit dark.

This time he performed his own reincarnation, and he heard the voice of Nohara Lin when he was resurrected last time. Although he couldn't hear what the voice said, Hoshino Mu understood the meaning of it.
That's a warning.
