In the evening, Uchiha Itachi returned home.

Looking at his father who was sitting at the main seat of the dining table with a serious face even during meal time, he hesitated to speak.

"Itachi, come to my study later."

Fugaku said calmly when he noticed that Itachi's expression was not right.

At the same time, he sped up his eating.

Obviously, he had a lot of questions to ask about the whole day's contact between Itachi, Jiraiya and Naruto.

And these questions could not be heard by little Sasuke.

"Yes, Father."

Itachi nodded in response and also speeded up his eating.

This is a tacit understanding between their father and son.

Similar scenes have happened too many times in this living room.

Seeing this, Mikoto on the side quickly gave Itachi a drumstick

"Eat slowly and don't choke."

Her tone was a little distressed.

As the eldest son, she has suffered too much at a young age because of some things in the clan!

"Mom, I want to eat big chicken drumsticks too~"

Little Sasuke, who was sitting next to his brother, saw this and immediately acted coquettishly towards his mother.

"OK, OK, Sasuke has one too.~"

"It just so happens that you and your brother are one each!"

Hearing little Sasuke's coquettishness, Mikoto's frowned eyebrows relaxed.

Because of the presence of this little son who loves to act coquettishly, the atmosphere in their family is not so serious.

And little Sasuke, who got the chicken drumsticks, also smiled happily. Get up.

He picked up the chicken leg and waved it to his brother, as if to say,

"Brother, look, one of us!"

Seeing this, Itachi's originally extremely complicated mood eased a little.

The worried family finished the meal in a hurry.

Mikoto stayed to clear the table, and little Sasuke ran back to his room and played with wooden shurikens. Itachi also came to the study with his father.

Sit on your knees, face to face

"Itachi, during your contact with Lord Jiraiya today, did he mention anything about Uchiha to you?"

The serious-looking Fugaku looked at the eldest son in front of him, who lowered his eyebrows to show respect, and asked directly.

This is what he is most concerned about at the moment.

Now the gap between the Uchiha clan and Konoha has become more and more serious. Some extreme militants who couldn't see how much they were worth even started to advocate a coup in the village!

They wanted to kill all the Third Hokage and then Uchiha himself sneered at this idea.

As the leader of the Uchiha clan, he is very aware of Konoha's overall strength!

Even though Orochimaru has defected, Tsunade and Jiraiya are also wandering outside the village and not doing much, but if Uchiha really wants to launch a coup!

He will definitely come back as soon as possible!

At that time, the Uchiha clan will face the powerful third generation Hokage, the root leader who is also a shadow level, and the hero Tsunade!

The Hyuuga clan led by the two brothers Hizashi and Hizashi, who have nothing to deal with, and the most staunch Hokage faction that always stands behind the Hokage, there are also a group of small families and civilian ninjas!

With so many powerful enemies, even if Fugaku has activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, he is extremely confident in his own strength.

The best he can do is fight against the Third Hokage, but what if he dies and no one can activate the Mangekyō Sharingan again ? What will the blind Uchiha do to fight Konoha? Even if he wins by luck in the end!

What will the Kage-level strongman and elite jounin fight to the death after hearing the news ? Other big countries? In the end, they are just making wedding clothes for others!

Fortunately , in addition to the group of hawks who all day long want to improve with Konoha.

Although Fugaku does not like the doves who are self-deprecating and timid, they reflect on themselves every day and self-correct.

But it is precisely because of their existence that they create a dynamic check and balance with the hawks.

Fugaku in the middle has room for maneuver.

Otherwise, as the clan leader, he may not be able to suppress the evil fire that is getting stronger and stronger!
