Itachi's Correction Mission: Kirigakure Attacks
Chapter 98 Itachi's Correction Mission: Kirigakure Attacks
Itachi Uchiha is currently three years old and has already learned to refine chakra. His chakra attributes are fire, wind, water, yin, and yang.
Mo thought it was a bit too early for a three-year-old to refine chakra, but fortunately Fugaku didn't go so far as to directly teach him ninjutsu. Perhaps he didn't think a three-year-old child could master real ninjutsu.
Among the geniuses Mo mentioned who would be able to control Samehada in the future was Uchiha Itachi, but no matter what, he was still too young. At this stage, Shisui was more than capable of teaching him.
(P.S.: The only Uchiha who has mastered and used Water Release techniques—)
Therefore, Uchiha Mo's purpose in appearing on this open space was mainly to teach Shisui his training, but the two of them did not avoid him.
"The Sharingan is proof of the Uchiha clan. To use the Sharingan effectively, one must embody the Uchiha's fighting style: agility,..."
Highly effective, and deadly.
As he spoke, a crimson light appeared in Mo's eyes as he looked down at the two little ones sitting cross-legged on the ground below.
Shisui looked serious, like he was listening attentively, while Itachi sat next to him, looking hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to, appearing very reserved.
"Shisui, what do you think is the most powerful ability of the Sharingan?"
"It's an illusion! None of our enemies dare to look us in the eye when we fight, because they all know our illusion abilities are incredibly powerful!"
Mo shook his head. "Since everyone knows to avoid it, then it can't be called the most powerful ability."
As he was speaking, Mo was about to continue imparting his experience in using the Sharingan to Shisui, but then his gaze shifted and he suddenly noticed Itachi raising his small hand, looking at him with a somewhat frightened but still determined expression.
"What is it?" Mo asked Itachi with a calm expression.
Shisui, seeing this, turned his gaze with some confusion. Itachi lowered his small hand and slowly asked, "Um—Clan Head, I'd like to ask what exactly the Uchiha clan is? Is it only those who have awakened the Sharingan who can become our clan members? I see everyone seems to place great importance on awakening the Sharingan—is the Clan Head the strongest Sharingan user? Father said that he lost his position as Clan Head precisely because he was inferior to you—but I don't see that's the case with other clans—"
As a child, Itachi Uchiha possessed an extremely strong curiosity. After going to the battlefield, he asked his father why ninjas fought each other. When he met Orochimaru in the cemetery, he took the initiative to ask him about the meaning of life. Even after learning the Great Fireball Technique, he still asked Fugaku about the principle of chakra flow.
Shisui blinked, recalling what his older brother had told him years ago. He immediately opened his mouth to tell Itachi to "see with your own eyes," but Mo spoke first, saying calmly, "If that's the case, why do you classify yourself as part of the Uchiha clan?"
"Huh—?" Itachi's face froze for a moment, then he lowered his head and thought for a while. Instead of being embarrassed or annoyed, he replied earnestly, "Because everyone has been so kind to me, I've already etched the idea that I'm a member of the Uchiha clan into my mind."
The answer was obvious—his belief that "family ties among the Uchiha only exist among the strong" instantly crumbled.
Instead of stubbornly clinging to his own views, Itachi quickly began to re-examine himself.
On the other side, after Itachi fell silent, Mo didn't care and continued to teach Shisui his own experience and techniques in using the Sharingan.
Time flew by, and it was evening. Itachi was picked up by Fugaku, who had temporarily finished his patrol, while Shisui and Sumi returned to their own tents.
"Nii-san, this isn't fair! You wouldn't answer any of my questions before, but when Itachi asked you, you answered his question."
Zhi Shui sat on the stone chair with her arms crossed, a hint of dissatisfaction on her face.
Mo Wenyan's lips curled up slightly, and he reached out and ruffled Zhishui's hair.
"That's because I believe that even if Shisui were to see things through my own eyes, he would become the person I envision him to be."
Among all the brothers in Naruto, Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha are undoubtedly the most impressive pair. Itachi's love for Sasuke is beyond doubt; he was even willing to pave the way for Sasuke with his own life.
However, Itachi's love was twisted and arrogant. He arrogantly believed that "Sasuke is just a child who doesn't understand anything." Therefore, Sasuke's entire first half of life was firmly controlled by his twisted love, and even the second half of his life was in his plan.
Itachi believed the Uchiha clan was too arrogant, but he failed to recognize his own arrogance. He taught Naruto to trust in everyone's strength on the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War, but then refused Sasuke's help on his way to find Kabuto.
Mo, however, believed from the bottom of his heart that Zhi Shui could become the person he envisioned through his own power and his subtle influence.
Therefore, he almost refused to instill any of his own subjective thoughts into Shisui. But with Itachi, Su decided to take a different approach.
Children who are too curious and too deep in their thoughts can easily become unstable bombs if they are not guided. Of course, the most important reason is that Mo doesn't care about Itachi; he needs Itachi's power to serve the Uchiha clan.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shisui's lips curled up into a satisfied smile.
"So, Nii-san thinks Itachi needs guidance from someone else!"
Mo nodded without avoiding the question.
"I believe Itachi might become an enemy of the clan in the future, so I need you to turn Itachi into a warrior of the Uchiha clan. Can you do that?"
Upon hearing this, Shisui's expression froze for a moment, and he asked, "Is this the first task Nisan gave me?"
"Hmm." Mo withdrew his hand and responded softly.
"Okay! I guarantee I'll complete the task!"
Zhi Shui sat upright, his face serious, and said this.
Mo's lips curled slightly. Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the tent.
"Lord Mo! The reconnaissance team reports that Wuyin has begun its operation!"
Mo quickly moved to the outside of the tent, lifted the curtain, and said in a deep voice, "Proceed according to the original orders."
"yes!"
The person responded quickly and then vanished from the spot in an instant.
Before long, Konoha's army was fully equipped and assembled outside the camp.
Mo arranged the Uchiha clan's Jonin to be positioned on the flank near the center, while the Chunin were simply stuffed into the very center of the army without any pretense.
However, neither the ragtag troops who arrived on the battlefield with the Uchiha clan first nor the reinforcements that arrived later had much to complain about.
Firstly, I dare not.
Secondly, Uchiha Mo, as the commander-in-chief, led the army from the very front, with Uchiha Fugaku by his side.
In fact, Mo didn't really want to bring Fugaku with him. He had scouted the Kirigakure camp this morning and found many unfamiliar faces, while also sensing several powerful chakra. He might have to keep an eye on Fugaku's life on the battlefield.
However, Fugaku had only just awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and needed to engage in intense combat to adapt to this power and awaken his own eye techniques.
