Naruto: First Love

Chapter 372: Rebellious Ninja? Death?

The next time I saw Itachi was at the Ninja School.

Xinzi was ordered to follow a certain ninja who had been acting strangely recently, and then go see Naruto on the way.

At that time, Itachi was wearing the clothes of the Uchiha clan, not the clothes of the Anbu. His long hair was blown in the wind. He was looking at Sasuke below and smiling warmly.

Itachi rarely smiles.

Xinzi remembers those few times very clearly.

When she joined Mizunotsuki's class, when the Nekomon Temple mission ended, when she came back to life, when Itachi and Shisui came to see her together, when she responded to him on the night of the Sakura Festival, and when she carried Sasuke home, and now Itachi.

Itachi seemed to have not noticed Xinzi's appearance at all, and stood there for a long time before leaving. Xinzi wanted to follow him, but she had a mission to complete, so she left.

After he left, he changed into an Anbu uniform and headed to the Anbu.

This Uchiha Itachi, who did not belong to the Root but accepted the Root's mission, once again received a mission about the Uchiha clan. Similarly, the Uchiha clan also assigned him a mission.

The two tasks were somewhat conflicting, but Itachi completed them perfectly. However, the Uchiha clan did not seem very satisfied. Half a month later, the Uchiha clan held a meeting, and Uchiha Fugaku ordered Itachi to be present.

Realizing his father's intention, Itachi took two of his men and lurked outside the shrine, then went to meet Uchiha Fugaku.

Uchiha Fugaku took him to see the stone tablet passed down by the Uchiha clan.

He was shocked that his father had also opened his Mangekyō Sharingan, and was also shocked by what was written on the stone tablet.

But he didn't agree.

He understood the current situation of the Uchiha clan, but he did not support their rebellion, as that would result in more deaths.

I accidentally mentioned the war to Xinzi, and Xinzi also hated it because her father died in the war and her mother died because of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Xinzi seemed to be trying hard to stay alive, but she also had deep-seated resentment in her heart.

Itachi always thought that she hated the Nine-Tails because of her mother's death. But even though she knew that Uzumaki Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she didn't show any hatred at all. It seemed that she didn't hate that person. Hatred is a must for all Uchiha clan members, because they say that hatred is necessary to stimulate the power of the Sharingan.

Itachi didn't think so.

But in the end, his father's words forced him to care.

Xinzi also possesses the Sharingan, and it is such an advanced Sharingan. He also suffered so much pain to obtain the Sharingan. How could he not care about it?
If the high-ranking officials of Konoha knew that she was also from the Uchiha clan, would they let her go? After all, he knew very well what these people were planning. The Uchiha clan, the entire clan would not be spared, right?
Whether it was him, Sasuke, his parents, or Izumi...if they really took action, could these people win? If the Uchiha clan could not win, what awaited them was endless killing and hatred.

Not only will the entire clan be wiped out, but more hatred will be left behind, and even other hatreds will arise in the future.

And Konoha will also be hit hard.

Both sides will suffer losses, and who knows how many people will die? He doesn't want to see this kind of war.

I still remember that he once said that if war could be avoided, he would be willing to stop it. Shisui, who said this, is now dead, and he needs to inherit this last wish.

That night, Itachi went to see Xinzi again. Xinzi accepted the mission and was leaving the next day. That night, she was sleeping.

Itachi knew that if nothing unexpected happened, he would take action this month. It would be best if Xinzi didn't come back.

He recently met a masked man who called himself Uchiha Madara, but Itachi knew that he was not.

It's not that Itachi is so smart, but this man, wearing a Uzumaki mask, is the same man who appeared in the mission that took Tianma's life.

Moreover, Itachi had seen this man wearing a Uzumaki mask on a piece of paper.

The label on it at that time seemed to be 'obito', and if he remembered correctly, it should be Obito.

Moreover, Itachi knew very well that this person came for him.

Itachi has been afraid to see Xinzi recently, worried that when he goes to see Xinzi, the masked man will follow him and target Xinzi.

After all, as expected, the man was targeting the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Shisui once said that the Mangekyō Sharingan is not the highest level. Above it, there is the Eternal Mangekyō, but it requires the eyes of one's own brother to achieve eternity.

The real brother is Sasuke. Itachi has already started planning his future life.

He was going to separate from Xinzi. Standing beside Xinzi's bed, Itachi smiled bitterly as he looked at the sleeping Xinzi.

Xinzi was not someone who didn't have a sense of alertness. In the past, whenever she was on a mission, she would wake up quickly at the slightest sign of trouble. But when he was alone, even if she sensed something was wrong, she would not wake up immediately, but wait for him to remind her. Maybe she was relying on him?
This dependence made him happy but also uncomfortable.

If something really happens, what will Xinzi do?
Would she blame him for abandoning her?

If it was Sasuke, he could not care, but Xinzi was not Sasuke. Xinzi had grown up and had her own thoughts. She knew what to do and what not to do. She was even an excellent ninja and had experienced enough pain.

He has always admired and loved Xinzi.

She should have stayed at home to take care of her husband and children instead of becoming a ninja and fighting outside.

He couldn't bear to hurt Xinzi, because Xinzi had been with him for so many years and was the person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

He gently placed a kiss on Xinzi's lips, then turned and left, resolute and tragic.

Once I leave, I don’t know when I will see you again.

Xinzi, I'm sorry.

……

The next day, Xinzi packed his luggage and followed a few senior ninjas to the border, one to track and the other to assassinate.

Originally, she didn't want to take this mission because the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha was almost exposed, and she was worried about Itachi.

However, Sandai said that the mission would not take long, at most a week, and the destination was the other country adjacent to the Snow Country. It was said that Fengjian Yexue was seen there, and there was a cute boy beside her.

Xinzi thought, it's only a week, it won't matter, right? Last time, she didn't meet Fengjian Yexue, she just heard some general news, but now, someone said that he saw her, and brought a young man with him, so Xinzi began to waver. Maybe Fengjian Yexue is really not dead? With this feeling, she left Qingfeng here to inquire about the news and left.

But on the fourth night after she left, the Uchiha clan ushered in a bloody night. Except for Uchiha Sasuke, no one in the clan was left alive!

The one who did it was Uchiha Sasuke's brother, the eldest son of the Uchiha clan leader, and the former pride of the Uchiha clan - Uchiha Itachi. Konoha issued an S-level wanted order for Uchiha Itachi.

The Uchiha clan's glory in Konoha has become a thing of the past.

At the same time, Xinzi, who was on a mission outside, also received news from Qingfeng.

Itachi was being hunted down by members of the Root and Anbu of Konoha. Her heart trembled as the enemy stabbed her in the chest and she fell to the ground in the snow...

Look, is it going to end? ?
