Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

A moment later, Minato sat down in a chair, and Shikaku walked in at that moment.

"What a tragic scene."

Shikaku sighed as he looked inside.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Minato chuckled dryly twice.

"Let's tidy up."

After Minato finished speaking, Minato and Shikaku silently began to pack up.

"So what happened?"

Shikaku suddenly spoke.

"It's very troublesome, unimaginably troublesome. To be honest, I'm already extremely annoyed."

Minato sighed.

"is it?"

"There will always be a way, don't worry."

Yes, that's right.

"Let's release Itachi's wanted poster first."

"Ok."

The liveliness of Konoha will soon return, but that little Happiness Restaurant will begin to close its doors—

The aroma of the food seemed to be missing something, and for a moment it didn't taste as good.

Chapter 335: The Storm Is Approaching

"What are you thinking, Itachi?"

Fugaku knelt in front of the main hall, looking at Itachi, who was also kneeling in front of him.

"Chieftain, I have my own ideas. Can you please trust me?"

Itachi's eyes met Fugaku's, their gazes clashing repeatedly.

Slowly, their gazes, locked in a deep stare, turned crimson, their ordinary pupils transforming into Sharingan. The first tomoe (magatama) began to emerge and swirl within their pupils, followed by a second, then a third—

Finally, the three tomoe began to melt together, transforming into the Mangekyou Sharingan, which stared at each other. Few people knew that Itachi and Fugaku had awakened what had become the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan.

"You are very important. You know what your status is in the eyes of the Uchiha clan. If you were in that situation, you would know."

Fugaku blinked, his Mangekyou Sharingan vanished instantly, and then he sighed.

"Go, Itachi."

"Thank you, Chieftain."

Itachi stood up and walked into a secret room.

This is the secret chamber of the Uchiha clan, where the history of the Uchiha clan is kept.

"Itachi".

“You are the second person who can reach Uchiha Madara, that pinnacle, I firmly believe that.”

Itachi didn't turn around, listening to Fugaku's words behind him.

"Ah."

Itachi gave a soft "hmm" and slowly walked inside, step by step.

As Itachi looked at the monument inside, his eyes once again transformed into the Mangekyou Sharingan, and the air gradually quieted down.

Itachi exhaled softly, and retracted his Mangekyou Sharingan.

"impossible!"

Sasuke listened to the news with disbelief in his eyes.

"Itachi would never betray Konoha and become a rogue ninja!"

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, but this is the truth. Itachi was also involved in the Konoha Crush plan."

Sasuke sat on the hospital bed, Kakashi in front of him, and Naruto and Sakura peeked out from outside the door.

"Did Itachi betray us?"

Naruto outside the door was also surprised. He couldn't imagine that Itachi would betray Konoha. Moreover, Itachi was someone who aspired to become Hokage, and was even a strong contender for the next Hokage! Even Naruto idolized him, and now it was as if his idol image had collapsed.

"Itachi-nii? You mean that famous genius, right? He's Sasuke's older brother, isn't he?"

Sakura asked from the side. This Sakura was different from the original Sakura. She wasn't as infatuated with boys. Although she still had feelings for handsome men like Sasuke, she was aware of the gap between them and thought more about how she could get closer to him.

It's more accurate to say that Sakura has already worked very hard. She was grouped with the two most abnormal guys in this year's class, and the fact that she can withstand the pressure and keep working hard is already more impressive than that of ordinary people.

"And that cursed seal on your neck, the Hokage has already taken care of it for you, but you still need to be careful and not use chakra too forcefully."

"There are many things going on in Konoha right now. You should rest well. I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

"And you all too."

Kakashi turned to face Naruto and Sakura.

"The Chunin Exams have been cancelled, so all the results are invalid."

"Hey!"

Naruto exclaimed, "Being a ninja involves a process. To become Hokage, you must first become a Jonin."

"Damn it, all that hard practice I put in!"

Naruto grumbled, clutching his head. He wasn't completely unharmed, but the Uzumaki clan's constitution allowed him to recover quickly. He looked as if nothing had happened.

"The warrant for Itachi Uchiha has been issued, and the problem has been resolved."

"Really? Thank you so much, Shikaku."

Minato smiled; he had just finished dealing with a portion of the documents.

"As for the Moon Tree, there is still no news. Akatsuki's location is very well hidden, and the temporary location that Itachi reported earlier has disappeared."

"Is that so? Let's continue tracking the information. Itachi's recent actions may not have broken free."

"clear."

Shikaku withdrew, and Minato looked out the window. Outside, the reconstruction of Konoha was proceeding in an orderly manner. Thanks to the First Hokage's ninjutsu, half of Konoha had been transformed into a forest, resulting in a considerable amount of timber, which somewhat compensated for the losses.

In short, because of this battle, the green area of ​​Konoha has increased dramatically, and now Konoha looks as if it is being embraced by nature.

"Ugh, this is getting more and more troublesome."

Minato sighed, looking at the still energetic Konoha. He was grateful for Itachi's advance warning and Minato's vigilance; otherwise, Konoha would have suffered a great loss. While material losses were not a big deal and Minato didn't value them much, he valued life very much.

"It seems that our peaceful life is finally coming to an end."

Minato's gaze darkened. In the distance, a dark cloud was slowly and silently drifting towards the blue sky.

It seemed to be foreshadowing something, or telling a story.

The storm is about to come; the signs have already appeared, and the thunder is already rumbling.

"How is it, Himegami Tsukiju?"

"How have you been doing here lately?"

Yahiko walked in and looked at Tsukiki, who was sitting against the wall.

"It's a little too dark; it would be better if it were a bit brighter."

"And your food isn't very good either."

Yue Shu's hands and feet were bound, and the threads on her body were still faintly visible.

"You're really something, aren't you? I must say, you're just like me."

"The same applies even if the memory is lost."

Yahiko stood in front of Tsukiki.

"I don't know who you're talking about?"

"I am now Himegami Tsukiki, the manager of Happiness Bistro!"

"scorpion."

The line was pulled taut.

The moon tree was pulled upright.

"cut."

"Do ninjas only attack ordinary people?"

Tsukiki gritted her teeth, showing absolutely no sign of yielding.

"You're no ordinary person."

"Let's go, you're quite useful now."

As the scorpion's fingers moved, the moon tree began to move slowly like a puppet.

"Let's go."

Yahiko gave Tsukiki a deep look, then turned and walked away.

Itachi, meanwhile, remained outside, watching Yahiko and Tsukiki emerge.

Tsuki's gaze fell on Itachi, who had his back to him, and the two brushed past each other.

Chapter 336: The Lonely Darkness

"Himegami Tsukiju, do you know? There was a person, a person who existed a thousand years ago, whose name was the same as yours, exactly the same."

Yahiko and the others dragged the Moon Tree to the ground. It was dark and gloomy there, and it was not comfortable to stay there.

"So, this is your reason for bringing me to this godforsaken place?"
