Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"Congratulations to Yue Shu for joining the father's tier."

Minato chuckled behind him, now taking the time to tease Tsukiki a bit.

Even someone with the fighting prowess of Tsukiki has had their movements successfully restrained, and this is such a young child.

"That's something, kid. He became a father without saying a word."

Tsuki didn't tell Tsunade about her relationship with Mikoto until the baby was taken to the hospital, at which point Tsunade found out. However, Tsuki happened to be going with Minato to discuss their potential cooperation with Sunagakure shortly afterward.

So Tsunade was still confused, but fortunately Kushina and Mikoto both spoke up to explain in the days that followed.

Tsukiki held the child, touched his head, and, not knowing how to answer Tsunade, simply didn't reply.

Tsukiki walked to Mikoto's side and then revealed the child to her.

Even though it was right in front of her, Mikoto still smiled.

All her hardship, pain, and exhaustion vanished in that instant, disappearing like smoke.

The child quieted down and became very well-behaved, moving his little body slightly without crying anymore.

Everyone around was watching; this was a conversation between Tsukiki and Mikoto. The others, who were also quite tactful, knew to remain silent.

"Tsunade————"

Shizune had just arrived, wanting to check on Tsukishiki's child, but she was caught before she could even make a sound.

"Let's get a name."

Tsukiki and Mikoto laughed.

"Okay, come and get it, Dad."

Mikoto's gaze was so gentle as she looked at the child and Tsukiki.

"Itachi".

Tsukiki seemed to think for a moment, then moved quickly, and soon the word "Itachi" appeared in everyone's ears.

"Weasel?"

"Yes, it's not called Himegami Itachi."

Yue Shu's words startled everyone, but he himself raised the corners of his mouth, his smile wide open.

"Let's call him Uchiha Itachi."

"——————"

Mikoto stared at Tsukiki and the child, the two seemingly becoming one, the blood connection so clearly felt even from the outside.

"Uchiha?"

"Hmm. What's wrong? Is it not allowed?"

Tsukiki smiled, pressing her forehead against Mikoto's, her gesture incredibly gentle.

At that moment, it seemed that such emotions reached Itachi, and the newborn little guy actually laughed, with a smile on his face.

"Look, Itachi himself is very happy."

"Ah."

Mikoto's eyes sparkled as she looked at the person she loved in front of her.

While the Uchiha clan didn't exactly exploit Mikoto, they did have some intentions. Through Mikoto's relationship with Tsuki, they hoped to gradually bring the Uchiha back to Konoha and ease the tension between the two. This was the Uchiha's purpose.

The Uchiha clan rarely intermarries with outsiders to maintain the purity of their bloodline. However, intermarriage with outsiders does not mean that the Sharingan will disappear. Just like Sasuke's daughter Sarada, she also possesses the Sharingan.

Tsukiki had a reason for giving Itachi the Uchiha surname. Himegami's surname was too complicated, and there was no need to involve her own child. Besides, with the Uchiha surname, Itachi would be considered a member of the Uchiha clan. Furthermore, it was simply to follow the original story.

This is something Tsuki has been thinking about for a while. Not only for Itachi, but also for Sasuke and Naruto later on, he plans not to use Himekami's surname.

If things continue like this, Sasuke and Naruto are most likely connected to me.

No wonder Naruto seemed so close to me back in Loulan; that's why.

"congratulations."

After she finished speaking, the people around her offered their blessings, including Kushina. However, the girl still had a face full of jealousy. Mikoto and Tsukiki's behavior was so sweet to others, let alone this official girlfriend.

Yue Shu scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly.

Now that Itachi has been born, Tsuki is a little dizzy, being overly excited about becoming a father for the first time.

"Great! We should celebrate properly tonight. We don't have much work to do, and the hospital isn't busy either. Let's have a nice meal at home tonight. Of course, Tsukishiki will cook!"

Tsunade took it upon herself to start speaking, and the others naturally agreed without any problem; this was indeed something to celebrate.

Tsukiki and Mikoto looked at everyone, exchanged a glance, and smiled knowingly, which made Kushina jealous again, and she immediately grabbed Tsukiki's arm.

Mikoto certainly didn't care, after all, in her eyes she was the real third party, and it was she who had wronged Kushina.

Tsukiki is also Ikushina.

Everyone was chatting for the first time in a long time, talking about tonight's celebration and how they would invite Jiraiya, Kakashi, and the others to join them.

Let's all celebrate!

Itachi seemed to sense the situation as well, and he just stood there grinning foolishly.

She looks just like her parents.

Regardless, today, Itachi Uchiha was born.

Chapter 273: Daily Life (Part 1)

"Hello, Mr. Yue Shu."

"Hello."

"Are you here to see Weasel again?"

"Ah."

At the main gate of the Uchiha clan compound, Tsukiki, carrying several bags, greeted the gatekeeper.

In fact, ever since Mikoto gave birth to Itachi, Tsukiki has been staying here for most of the time. He even expanded Mikoto's house here and planned to live here permanently.

However, due to Kushina and other reasons, this idea has not yet been realized.

"Mr. Tsukiki really loves Itachi and Mikoto."

"Yes, this will improve the situation of our Uchiha clan. Speaking of which, when I went to Konoha recently, the people there were not so resistant to me."

As Yue Shu entered the clan's territory, the guards gathered together and chatted.

Yes, everything is going as expected. The Uchiha clan's relationship with Konoha has been eased due to Mikoto and Tsukiki's connection. In addition, Konoha is no longer under the Third Hokage; Minato is now the Fourth Hokage, and everyone knows that Tsukiki and Minato are practically like brothers.

With this connection in place, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha is gradually weakening. If this continues, the Uchiha will slowly reintegrate into Konoha, leading to greater peace within the village. This is what Minato wanted.

Minato has already fulfilled his dream of becoming the Fourth Hokage. Now, this dream has been expanded to become a Hokage who will be remembered in history and make Konoha a better place.

"Hello, Mr. Yue Shu."

"Hello."

Tsuki's strength was well-known within the Uchiha clan, and many people greeted him along the way, which Tsuki responded to each one.

"Ah! Ah ah!"

As we walked, we arrived at the path in front of Mikoto's house.

Not long after I started walking along this road, I heard a voice that made Yue Shu smile with joy.

The sound was babbling, a very childish sound.

Yue Shu had already seen the source of the voice; it was right in front of her, that small figure.

With her black hair fluttering in the wind, Mikoto, who had just become a woman, looked so beautiful, but what attracted Tsukiki's attention the most was the little guy who could already walk a little.

He walked a short distance, then collapsed again, and it seemed he wouldn't be able to walk much longer.

Just ahead, those eyes looked so bright and deep. He looked over, a smile on his little face.

"Daddy's here!"

Yue Shu couldn't help but laugh, and quickened her pace once more.

The little guy in front barked a few more times.

“wu——”

Tsukiki walked very fast and arrived in front of the little guy in no time. She grabbed Itachi with both hands and lifted him up high.

Itachi was also smiling happily, and his infectious joy was overflowing.

"The eagle can walk now, that's amazing."

Tsukiki gently nuzzled Itachi's cheek with her own. In just a moment, Tsukiki began to cherish Itachi dearly.

Mikoto watched the interaction between the father and son with a smile, and she was already very satisfied with that.

This is the scene that Mikoto has wanted most in her life.

"How have you been lately? Have you been a good girl and listened to Mommy?"

It's been a while since Itachi was born, probably only a few months. Itachi can truly be called a genius. In such a short time, he can already walk a little and even occasionally says "Papa" and "Mama," although his teeth haven't all grown in yet. It's worth mentioning that the first word Itachi said was "Papa," that's right, "Papa," not "Mama," which made Tsukiki very happy for quite a while.

"Oh dear, Dad—Dad."

The eagle waved its limbs, as if to show that it was being well-behaved.

Tsukiki and Mikoto exchanged glances and chuckled. This emotion also affected Itachi, who also smiled with his mouth slightly open.

"Come on, go home."

Tsukiki held Itachi with one arm and took Mikoto's hand with the other.

"Ah."

Mikoto wouldn't do that on her own initiative because she always felt she was in the wrong, so Tsukiki would always take the initiative, even though it was also his responsibility.

A woman who has given birth to his child is someone Yue Shu would naturally not neglect; in fact, he would cherish her as if she were his own flesh and blood.

Although Kushina might be jealous, it won't change Tsukiki's mind.

"It's a bit chilly today, we need to give Itachi some more clothes."
