Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Izumi listened quietly while eating her bento.

Time flies, and it was almost dusk.

For Itachi, his day of training was almost over.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

When Izumi arrived here, Itachi was practicing his ninjutsu one last time, and he was almost out of chakra.

"That's really amazing."

Itachi turned around and looked at Izumi behind him.

"You've already graduated early."

"Ah."

Itachi gave a calm "hmm," then brushed past Izumi and headed home.

Quanmei lowered her head and gritted her teeth.

"Can you teach me?"

Izumi turned around and called out to Itachi.

Itachi stopped in his tracks.

"why?"

"I also want to graduate early---"

Itachi turned to look at Izumi, his serious gaze and his eyes constantly shifting.

Itachi turned his head back and started walking again.

Izumi's expression darkened.

“I’ve been practicing here all along.”

Quanmei's face instantly lit up with joy.

"See you tomorrow!"

Itachi didn't answer, and slowly walked away.

"It's so difficult."

"How much longer until I can graduate early?"

During her lunch break, Quanmei leaned against a tree and sighed.

Itachi was still practicing on the side, glancing over at the other side.

"Well, it's almost time for lunch."

"Did you get Uncle Yue Shu's food?"

Izumi's eyes lit up.

"There's none for you."

Itachi flicked his shuriken and said calmly.

Another year has passed, and everything is almost the same as before. Izumi has been training with Itachi for a year now.

Besides that, Itachi has already participated in the Chunin Exams and passed them very well.

In other words, Itachi is only seven years old and has already become a Chunin.

"Oh dear, how could this happen?"

Quanmei looked pitiful, her eyes brimming with tears.

"I want to eat!"

Izumi's eyes were fixed on Itachi, and she just kept staring.

Itachi sighed, and his movements came to a halt.

"It is indeed lunchtime."

"Here, you still have a long way to go. Keep working hard."

Itachi gave Izumi her share, and then sat down on the other side of the tree. He hadn't brought any food with him; he planned to go home to eat.

Because of her schoolwork, Izumi didn't have much time to practice with Itachi. She spent almost all her free time practicing together with him.

"Going to school is such a hassle. I envy you, but I can't skip it."

Quanmei pouted, with a hint of complaint.

"Just try your best, and you'll graduate early so you won't have to go to school anymore."

Itachi responded calmly.

"Then I'll head back first, you can continue practicing."

Itachi's tone carried a hint of anticipation and excitement, which would be impossible for someone unfamiliar with him to detect. It just so happened that Izumi was someone who knew Itachi well.

"Is it your younger brother again? Aunt Mikoto has been pregnant for several months now."

"Nine months."

"Yes, Aunt Kushina is eight months pregnant. Speaking of which, does Itachi hope for a younger brother or sister?"

Quanmei teased.

Itachi maintained a poker face, showing almost no personal emotion.

"Anything is fine."

Itachi said goodbye softly and then walked away.

"Goodbye, I'll practice a little longer. I'm determined to get back into treading water skills today!"

"Come on."

Izumi waved goodbye to Itachi as he left, then clenched her own fists.

"Okay! We need to work hard!"

Quanmei cheered herself up.

Meanwhile, Itachi was slowly walking home, his pace much faster than before.

"Is it really better to have a younger brother after all?"

"My younger sister seems pretty good too."

Itachi muttered to himself in a very soft voice, so that only he could hear him.

If Izumi were here, she would definitely hear the little bit of excitement in Itachi's words.

Another new member is joining the family.

A slight smile involuntarily crept onto Itachi's lips.

Family is what Itachi cares about most, Hokage is second, this is what Itachi was influenced by from childhood. Tsukiki, because he has a lot of free time, often organizes activities such as picnics.

The family consists of Dad, Mom, and Kushina. Occasionally, Uncle Minato and Hotaru will also be there. Sometimes, there are even big family gatherings where Tsunade, Shizune, and Jiraiya come together.

Itachi likes this atmosphere, this family atmosphere.

Soon there will be a new family member, they must be very cute.

Itachi walked home with a smile on his face.

Back home, Tsukiki was cooking, and Kushina and Mikoto were waiting for the food.

After Kushina and Mikoto became pregnant, Tsukiki became very anxious, just like when Mikoto was pregnant with Itachi. He was busy with everything and worked very hard.

"I am back."

Welcome back.

Itachi heard the response from home and smelled the aroma of food wafting over.

That's how it was; her words were full of care, and the aroma of the food was the taste of home.

"The food will be ready soon."

"I'll help."

Itachi quickly took off his shoes, went inside, and ran towards the kitchen.

Let's rewind to eight months ago, when Mikoto was just one month pregnant.

At that time, Mikoto had already started experiencing early pregnancy symptoms and began vomiting.

"How about it?"

Tsukiki and Mikoto went to the hospital together for a check-up. The medical ninja was able to detect Mikoto's condition through chakra testing.

So, Tsukiki was announced to be pregnant again, becoming a father for the second time.

"Hey?"

A wave of surprise washed over him, and Yue Shu's mind went blank for a moment.

"Mikoto!"

Tsukiki grasped Mikoto's hands, and Mikoto's face was also extremely flushed.

That's right, Tsukiki and Mikoto have been having sex quite frequently lately, but unexpectedly, this has led to trouble.

"He will definitely be a good child."

Tsukiki gently hugged Mikoto, and Mikoto nodded in response.

Then another thing happened.

After Tsukiki and Mikoto returned home, the news of this reached Kushina's ears.

And so the tragedy occurred.

"Is Mikoto pregnant again? What's going on?"
