Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 300 Everything Has Changed

Are you too tired?

Sasuke froze on the spot for a moment.

How is that possible?

How could Brother Yun not be there?

If it weren't for Brother Yun, then who has been blocking the Vortex Sky all these years?

If it weren't for Brother Yun, who could I tell about the future?

Now... even the Hokage isn't the Fourth Hokage, but the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who doesn't trust the next generation at all.

Under the pressure of his thoughts, Sasuke's eyes uncontrollably surged with powerful ocular energy, and the three tomoe appeared, slowly rotating in his eye sockets.

"The Sharingan with three tomoe?"

This scene stunned even the usually composed Itachi.

What just happened?

Nothing happened; he simply asked a non-existent clansman, and Sasuke immediately activated his three-tomoe Sharingan.

The power in Sasuke's eyes made him realize what was happening.

Yes, nothing can prove one's past better than these eyes.

If it weren't for Brother Yun and the Hokage rescuing me in the end, these eyes would never have become the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Now is not the time to be complacent; we must find out clearly how the past and future have changed.

No matter what... everyone must survive!

"Smack."

A hand suddenly landed on Sasuke's forehead, and Itachi's gaze was very serious at that moment.

"Sasuke, no matter how you awakened your Sharingan, from today onwards, you are not allowed to display this power!"

"Promise me, brother!"

Sasuke stared directly at Itachi, his mind racing.

On the way from the Ninja Academy to the Hokage Building, the Hokage Rocks remained unchanged, still consisting of four rock formations.

This shows that Naruto's father, the Fourth Hokage, did indeed exist.

On the other hand, from the few words spoken by Brother Yun, Brother Shikamaru, and others a long time ago, we can learn that the Third Hokage did not trust the Uchiha clan too much...

and many more!

There is another person, someone I only know about from Shikamaru's guesses.

Known as the Darkness of Konoha, the leader of Root, and the man killed by Uzumaki Sora long ago: Shimura Danzo.

Information about this person mostly comes from veteran Jonin of the Uchiha clan.

(Things have finally gotten better since Danzo, the high-ranking official who persecuted the Uchiha, died.)

(If it weren't for the strict orders from the clan chief and Lord Yun, I wouldn't have considered the Shimura clan as my comrades.)

(They actually dared to covet the power of the Sharingan; they deserve to die!)

(Danzo is a member of the Shimura clan, but not all members of the Shimura clan are Danzo. The Shimura Ken at the outpost, for example, gained Lord Kumo's approval.)

……

That person is still alive!!

In an instant, Sasuke guessed something.

"Is it because of Danzo?"

Sasuke's words left Itachi stunned once again.

Itachi, who has already awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, has long served as the captain of the ANBU. His long-term assassination missions and the conflicts between his family and the village have taught him to hide his emotions.

But at this moment, he was facing Sasuke, his younger brother whom he cared about most.

How did you know that name?

Itachi's answer confirmed to Sasuke that Danzo was still alive.

With the Third Hokage currently in power and Danzo still alive, the state of the Uchiha clan is quite predictable.

Thinking of this, Sasuke raised his head: "Shisui-nii... the Third Hokage said he was gone, did he die?"

Despite not answering the question directly, Itachi nodded nonetheless: "Sasuke, something... happened to you?"

Sasuke nodded slightly in return.

He knew his brother's mind very well. The Fourth Hokage once said that his brother was the most qualified ninja, with top-notch intelligence analysis and patience.

But now, Sasuke is hesitant about whether he should tell his brother everything, and whether his brother will believe him.

The idea of ​​someone coming back from the future seems too far-fetched, even to myself.

After letting out a breath, Sasuke replied, "The Third Hokage didn't truly trust the Uchiha clan, and his old friend Danzo coveted the power of the Sharingan... So, brother... what do you intend to do?"

Itachi frowned slightly, looked at Sasuke for a while, then extended two fingers and tapped them on Sasuke's forehead.

"Sasuke, you should be focusing on your studies at school right now, instead of worrying about the clan. Your father and brother are here to take care of things; everything will be alright."

Feeling the touch on his forehead, Sasuke's eyes instantly reddened.

At that time...

Facing Akatsuki's enemies, his older brother appeared.

And those eyes, which had gone blind and turned white, appeared clearly in Sasuke's mind at that moment.

"Don't treat me like a child, brother! These eyes already have three tomoe, three-tomoe Sharingan. Even if I'm not strong enough, I can still be a special Jonin."

"Brother... tell me about the current state of the Uchiha clan. Perhaps I can help?"

Itachi hesitated for a moment, then reached out to ruffle Sasuke's hair, but Sasuke dodged it.

The three-tomoe eyes do indeed possess the ability to dodge.

"A Sharingan with only three tomoe isn't enough to qualify as a Special Jonin. You're only eight years old; studying at the Ninja Academy is what you should be doing."

Sasuke stared directly at Itachi, his gaze unwavering: "How far do we need to go? The Mangekyou Sharingan? But the Uchiha problem isn't about power, you should know that, brother."

Itachi looked directly at Sasuke as well: "You've changed a lot today, it even makes me wonder if someone used some kind of secret technique to transform into your appearance..."

Sasuke replied, "With the Mangekyou Sharingan's eye techniques, there are many things in this world that can be broken through, but hiding them is absolutely impossible."

For a moment, the scene fell silent.

The two pairs of eyes met, but neither gave in.

After simultaneously withdrawing their gazes, the two walked towards their clan's territory. One in front of the other, each lost in their own thoughts.

After a long time, the two arrived at the Uchiha clan's territory.

Itachi glanced in the direction of home: "How about an information exchange at the Seventh Training Ground on this week's day off?"

Sasuke nodded: "At this moment, the only person I can trust is you, brother!"

These words made Itachi slightly lose his composure.

What exactly happened to Sasuke? Could it be Danzo?

Because of his own reasons, does he believe that Sasuke also has the potential to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?

At this moment, the two had arrived at their doorstep.

At this moment, a serious-looking man stood in the courtyard, dropping a handful of fish food to feed the ornamental fish in the pond.

"Sasuke, why are you skipping class?"

With a commanding voice, Sasuke looked at the man in front of him.

This is... my father?

In my memory, all that remained of this person was a photograph. But now, he is a real person.

Father...is not dead?

So the current head of the Uchiha clan is his own father?

"Sasuke wasn't feeling well today, so I took him to the hospital."

Itachi's voice rang out.

Fugaku glanced at Itachi, then turned his gaze to Sasuke: "Although you've consistently achieved first place, that's only in the Ninja Academy. As members of the Uchiha clan, the honor of this name cannot be neglected!"

Sasuke, who had just come to his senses, nodded: "Understood."

"Go down."

After finishing speaking, Fugaku continued feeding the fish, but his slightly furrowed brows clearly indicated that he was not in a good mood.

After observing for a while, Sasuke left with Itachi.

"Brother, is Father always this serious?"

Upon hearing this, Itachi looked at Sasuke and said, "As the head of the Uchiha clan, you need to have enough authority to gain the respect of your clansmen."

"Sasuke...you remind me of meeting my father for the first time."

Sasuke paused for a moment, then nodded immediately: "I've seen his photos before, but this is the first time I've seen him in person. Brother... this is also part of the intelligence."

"So... please don't treat me like a child. I can help you, and I also need your help."

"On your day off, I hope you can tell me all the information, because it concerns the survival of everyone in the village, including the Uchiha clan."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sasuke left.

……

It's still the same room I remember, but some things have been added and some things have been removed.

After Brother Zhishui became the clan leader, his family continued to live here, and the rooms remained unchanged.

"call……"

After taking a deep breath, Sasuke sat down in the chair in front of his desk.

I glanced at the calendar, then closed my eyes and began to ponder what time period we were in.

He was a little over eight years old and in his third year of school.

The Fourth Hokage may have already died, otherwise the Third Hokage should have been the Hokage.

Brother Yun is no longer alive, but Father is still alive, and Shimura Danzo is still alive.

From what the Third Hokage said in the Hokage Building, we can tell that the Uchiha clan's current situation is not good, or even terrible.

The Uchiha clan's past is already very blurry in their memories...

However, from some snippets of conversation among his clansmen, he learned that what truly changed the Uchiha clan's situation was when he was a little over three years old.

It was during that war with the Hidden Cloud Village that my brother awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

but now……

That's easy to find out. I'll ask around at the school tomorrow, and I should be able to find out.

I acted impulsively today. There's no place where you can get information more easily than at school.

After all, this year's students are the next generation of various families in the village.

After dinner, Sasuke kept glancing at his mother.

Many people had already been evacuated when the village was destroyed. My mother must have gone to a shelter too, right?

Will those people... kill everyone?

"Sasuke."

Itachi's reminder brought Sasuke back to his senses, and then the family fell silent, the atmosphere very quiet.

……

Early the next morning, at the entrance of the ninja school.

"Sasuke!!"

Amid exclamations of surprise, a splash of pink and a splash of gold appeared simultaneously, and then one person took one side and walked alongside Sasuke.

"I can actually go to school with Sasuke today!"

"Sasuke-kun, do I look good with my hair clip today?"

"Wide forehead! What are you doing here?"

"Inoboar! Why are you here?"

……

An argument broke out between the two sides.

Sasuke frowned, but the next moment he remembered Ino's identity.

She is the daughter of the Yamanaka family, specifically the Yamanaka Ino family. Her father is the head of the intelligence squad and the squad leader of the torture department.

"Ino, I have some questions I'd like to ask you. Would you mind sitting down together for a bit?"

? ?

! !

Ino and Sakura were both stunned for a moment.

Sakura: How is this possible? They actually invited Ino?

Ino: This sudden happiness... it's too sudden!

"Sasuke-kun...you're asking me about...that...so..."

Sasuke was thinking about how to extract information when a loud voice rang out behind him.

"Sasuke... what are you trying to do to Sakura, you bastard?"

Naruto?

Sasuke knew who was chasing after him just by their voices.

At that moment, the scene of Naruto's death flashed through my mind.

At that time, he used the power of the Nine-Tails to block all four enemies, while also facing the enemy who could manipulate gravity.

Naruto, who bore most of the pressure, ultimately died alongside Hinata.

"Damn Sasuke!!"

With a roar, the fist coming at him grew larger and larger.

In an instant, Sasuke turned to the side, grabbed Naruto's wrist and pressed it down, while his other hand pressed down on the back of Naruto's head.

"Bang."

Naruto slammed directly into Sasuke's foot.

It's obvious that if Sasuke hadn't stepped on him at the last minute, Naruto would probably be in the hospital right now.

"Naruto, are you alright?"

At the entrance of the ninja academy, many eyes turned to look.

Taking advantage of Sasuke's momentary lapse in attention, Naruto immediately stood up, raised his fist at Sasuke, and said, "I was careless just now, I didn't dodge! Sasuke, I won't let you have Sakura!"

???

Sasuke was stunned by these words.

Sakura, however, exploded and punched Naruto in the back of the head: "Who asked you to let me have it, you bastard!"

Naruto crouched on the ground, clutching the back of his head, wincing in pain.

At that moment, Hinata, who was in the same class, had just arrived at the school gate.

Meanwhile, Sasuke asked with some surprise, "Naruto, shouldn't you like Hinata?"

???

Naruto scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

Hinata, who had just arrived behind him, blushed instantly.

Naruto-kun... likes me?

"Bang."

Hinata Hyuga fainted right at the school gate as soon as she arrived at school.

Fortunately, Sasuke was used to this situation. He quickly went over and laid Hinata down, and then dispersed the group of kids who were watching.

Hinata woke up shortly after the temperature dropped.

"Sasuke...you don't actually like Hinata, do you?"

Naruto, standing behind Sasuke with his arms crossed and nostrils flared, said, "In that case... Sakura is mine!"

Sasuke turned to look at Naruto: "As a friend, don't say things like that again."

After saying that, Sasuke stood up and walked towards the school.

Naruto's personality and power have changed. The Fourth Hokage is no longer around, so it will definitely affect Naruto's growth.

What about the Nine-Tails?

The Sharingan cannot be activated for the time being; I need to find an opportunity to talk to Naruto.

As the possessor of Ashura's chakra, Brother Yun also mentioned Naruto when he asked the Hokage to take him away.

Although Naruto had already sacrificed himself, he could only ask the Hokage to take him away.

But this shows that Naruto is also special.
