Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 42 Has the gap already become this large?

"The exercise will last two days and one night, and the destination is quite far for you. Once you reach the designated location on the map, you will find the intelligence scrolls you each need."

"The group that brings back the intelligence scroll first within the specified time will be the winner."

Uchiha Yun, watching from below the stage, saw Itachi step forward to receive the map, while the girl named Kokoro beside him gave him a thumbs-up.

Are the bonds growing stronger?

Perhaps, barring unforeseen circumstances, such a team would not suffer from the disease.

"Brother, who's that girl with the twin tails?"

Yun turned to Izumi and teased, "That should be Itachi's current genin teammate. Isn't your reaction a bit over the top?"

At this moment, Itachi returned, holding the scroll, and said indifferently, "Let's go. Next, I will teach you some useful knowledge. If you are willing to listen, it should be of some use."

After saying that, he led the way out.

Standing behind Yun, Tokuma nudged him: "This guy's become our captain now, so what do you think?"

Yun turned around and laughed, somewhat annoyed, "Does Tokuma mean he wants to graduate early too? Spending all his time in the sewers, catching cats and dogs?"

Tokuma sighed, shrugged, and asked in return, "Anyway, I'll have to do these things sooner or later after graduating and becoming a genin. Besides, the Byakugan isn't necessarily used for combat."

Yun pondered for a moment after hearing this, then patted Dejian on the shoulder and said, "That's good. If everyone were like you, peace could probably last forever."

"What are you all still doing? Let's go!"

The shouts of the spring could be heard from afar.

Tokuma chuckled and replied in a low voice, "Sometimes fate is predetermined. If you can't resist it, then try to enjoy it, isn't that right?"

The two walked out side by side, and Yun glanced at his forehead, which was covered by a headscarf.

"That kind of thing... is a form of protection for the weak, but a constraint for the strong. If you, Tokuma, become strong enough, that kind of thing is nothing more than that."

Yun's words made Tokuma stop in his tracks, but Yun didn't wait for him.

Is it that strong?

To what extent can one ignore something like that? How is that even possible?

……

"Break the angle between the 12 o'clock position and the clock hand in half. Find the direction of the half-divided angle, and then point this direction at the sun. At this point, the 12 o'clock position is most likely to be south."

"There's plenty of food in the wild, but also a lot of it is poisonous..."

……

Along the way, Itachi listened to the basic knowledge he had learned, while Izumi, standing beside him, applauded in a very respectful manner.

As for Yun and De, although they didn't applaud or anything, they still noted down things they didn't know.

It must be said that, just as I remember, Uchiha Itachi was a true ninja.

They could rattle off basic knowledge off the cuff, and even Yun, who had been using shadow clones to listen to the lectures, was completely outclassed.

Soon the first night of the exercise arrived. After setting up the tent, the four of them ate something and rested.

After Tokuma and Izumi rested, Itachi, who had been sitting and resting, opened his eyes, looked at Yun, and, at her signal, took the lead and walked out of the tent.

……

"What's up?"

"Danzo told me to start paying attention to the movements within the Uchiha clan from today onwards."

Yun frowned slightly. Was this old dog already getting impatient?

In my memory, there should still be more than four years before the extinction of the clan. With the fourth generation still alive, what does it want to do?

Seeing that he received no response for a long time, Itachi looked at Yun and asked, "Do you and Shisui have any plans lately?"

Yun looked at Itachi, smiled, and asked, "Are you a double agent? Or do you want to join us?"

After he finished speaking, Itachi on the other side remained silent for a long time.

Want to go together?

"You should be very clear about the process of awakening your Sharingan. The Uchiha clan is extremely dangerous. And that Uchiha Shisui, his Sharingan is even superior to yours. How can you trust someone like that, someone who has experienced such pain?"

Danzo's words echoed in Itachi's ears once again.

But the method that Shisui and Kumo had previously mentioned for reintegrating the Uchiha clan into Konoha kept echoing in Itachi's mind.

Family and village, and... the father who died for the village.

At that time, my father, who lost his life to help the Fourth Hokage, was probably trying to reintegrate the Uchiha clan into Konoha.

So...

Shisui, who was also helping the Fourth Hokage along with his father at the time, was trustworthy!

"I... want to be with you."

Yun Wei was slightly surprised. After a moment, she thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "Your strength is not enough to participate in this matter. Although you are indeed a genius who graduated from the Ninja Academy in just one year, this level of genius is not enough."

Isn't it enough?

Itachi raised his head slightly, and in an instant, his Sharingan activated, with the three tomoe in his eye sockets slowly rotating.

"Isn't this power... enough?"

Yun looked into Itachi's eyes and paused slightly. Three tomoe?

It seems the bond hasn't formed enough, and the loss of love hasn't occurred yet. They probably encountered danger when forming the genin team, but haven't met Obito yet.

Obito?

It's hard to say whether Itachi would encounter Obito now and kill his teammates; that guy is probably crying his eyes out right now.

"You've reached three tomoe, you're growing fast. But... it's still not enough, Itachi. Neither I nor Shisui can withstand a second attack against true power."

As soon as Yun finished speaking, Itachi across from him indifferently took out a kunai and held it horizontally in front of his chest.

"While I've always acknowledged that you're stronger than me, even though you've never awakened the Sharingan, that doesn't mean I can't withstand a single blow from you. If I'm wrong, then prove me right!"

As Itachi spoke, he gripped the kunai in his hand even tighter, and the three tomoe in his eye sockets spun wildly. For a moment, both his perception and dynamic vision were brought to their highest level.

But... that's all.

The next moment, Yun suddenly threw out a kunai.

"Whoosh!"

The shuriken struck the tree and was dodged by Itachi, but just as Itachi was preparing his counterattack, it didn't appear at all.

Because at this moment, a kunai was held across his neck, and the person holding it was Yun, who was standing behind him.

Fast! Too fast!

The instantaneous movement technique seemed to foresee the direction of the dodge.

Whether it's a stand-in or a shadow clone, they are all interrupted by the kunai around their necks just before they can use it.

Do you still think I was wrong?

Yun slowly lowered the kunai, and the kaleidoscope that had been spinning in her eye sockets faded, leaving her with ordinary eyeballs.

Itachi turned around, his face grim: "Has the gap between us grown so large?"

……

The chapter about Fugaku's death has been revised. Black Zetsu directly attacked him from behind, piercing his chest, and only controlled him to slit his throat and gouge out his eyes when he was on the verge of death. Otherwise, it would have been a bit too much.
