It was just like a young boy being caught in a romance by his parents.
Wait, could it be.. Uchiha Itachi's heart sank. Was Sasuke about to tell him that he and Uzumaki Naruto were together?
Ever since he learned of the connection between the First Generation, Uchiha Madara, Sasuke and Naruto, he had been having dreams where Sasuke was holding Naruto's hand and telling him that the two of them were together, every time, he would wake up startled.
I.." Uchiha Sasuke opened his mouth, under the other's gaze, he still spoke those words, "Naruto and I have a child.
-----------------------
Author's Note: Actually, it's a bit short of ten years, but for the sake of the plot development, let's ignore that.
Chapter 69
As expected, it was this matter. Uchiha Itachi's expression grew solemn, he silently told himself to remain calm.
He was already a mature older brother; Sasuke must be panicking right now, so he had to remain calm and composed; he couldn't put any pressure on Sasuke at a time like this.
It's okay, Sasuke, it's just.." Uchiha Itachi suddenly faltered. He had only just realized what he had just heard, repeated it in disbelief, "You and Uzumaki Naruto.. a child?
It wasn't that he and Uzumaki Naruto were together, but that they had a child.
Uchiha Itachi's gaze shifted downward, toward Uchiha Sasuke's abdomen.
Killing intent suddenly erupted in an instant.
Uzumaki Naruto, who was currently trying to get close to Tsunayoshi, felt the hair on his body stand on end, he alertly turned his head to meet Uchiha Itachi's gaze, which was overflowing with killing intent.
Seeing his brother's gaze and this sky-high killing intent, Uchiha Sasuke immediately understood that his brother had misunderstood,
“No, no, brother!”
It's not what you think, I'm not the one who's pregnant!
It wasn't Sasuke. Uchiha Itachi froze for a moment, his original killing intent vanishing, as his gaze turned toward Uzumaki Naruto with an indescribable expression.
Uzumaki Naruto looked down at his stomach, following the other's gaze.
"Ah, why is Itachi-san looking at my stomach with that kind of expression?" he thought, his face full of confusion.
“It's not like Naruto is pregnant either,” Uchiha Sasuke explained quickly.
Although he still didn't know what was going on, it was a good thing that he didn't have to see a heavily pregnant Uzumaki Naruto. Uchiha Itachi breathed a sigh of relief. "What exactly is happening?"
Sasuke pursed his lips, thinking about how to say it.
In fact, the child was no longer in their hands; as long as he and Naruto didn't say anything, no one would ever know about this. However, he felt that some things still needed to be told to the parents, especially sharing this matter with Uchiha Itachi.
So, Uchiha Itachi subsequently heard about a series of twists and turns in the incident, his usually calm and composed face rarely showed such emotional fluctuations.
He went on an ordinary mission and encountered a mother and daughter, only to find out in the end that they were both Special Grade Cursed Spirits?
It's fine, it's no big deal. It's normal to encounter some characters that exceed the mission's intensity while on a mission.
Finally, it was discovered that the mother and daughter were actually man-made Special Grade Cursed Spirits?
It's fine; human experimentation is something he is very familiar with. Orochimaru specializes in this, he is always peeking at their clan's bodies.
They used a Special Grade Cursed Spirit and Yin-Yang Release to create a child?
It's fine, it doesn't matter.. No, no, no, it's actually a bit important.
This child will be rejected by the world, so he was sent to the parallel world of Yokohama?
Huh? But that's the newest generation of the Uchiha Clan!
The child on the First Generation's side hasn't even been born yet, seeing how infatuated Uchiha Madara is, it's hard to say whether this child will take the Uchiha name or the Senju name.
As for the other half of this child coming from Uzumaki Naruto, the Uzumaki Clan has long been gone; he said this child belongs to the new generation of the Uchiha Clan.
“You guys are quite fast.” Uchiha Itachi managed to squeeze out a sentence; this progress was ten months ahead of the First Generation's, resulting in a painless birth.
"Naruto and I also thought it was quite easy; perhaps it's because a Special Grade Cursed Spirit was used as a vessel, which is why it went so smoothly." Uchiha Sasuke's lips curled slightly, his face full of self-satisfaction.
This isn't a compliment!
Moreover, the child would just be left behind in another world like that, Uchiha Itachi thought, hesitating to speak.
Forget it, I'll find him when I have the chance, Uchiha Itachi thought. In any case, Sasuke had left ocular power on him, so using that ocular power as a coordinate in the future, it wouldn't be too difficult to find him again.
The child can be found, but can his brother be found?
Watching Sasuke run off to find Uzumaki Naruto immediately after finishing his conversation with him, Uchiha Itachi felt deeply that his brother would never return.
If he had known this opportunity was coming, he wouldn't have entrusted Sasuke to Uzumaki Naruto so early!
Tsuna!" Uzumaki Naruto had already finished making himself well-acquainted, even calling Tsunayoshi by an intimate nickname with practiced ease, "Since you're Itachi-san's disciple, then we're brothers!
“I-Is that so?” Tsunayoshi was a bit overwhelmed by such an enthusiastic airhead.
Of course!" Uzumaki Naruto's eyes sparkled with curiosity as he asked the thing he had been wanting to know since just now, "So what was that just now, that could actually allow people from the future to swap?
That's the Ten-Year Rocket Cannon," Tsunayoshi explained. "It allows people from the present and ten years in the future to swap places.
Although it was difficult to tell these things to ordinary people, seeing these people's reactions to the Ten-Year Rocket Cannon, they were clearly not ordinary people, so knowing this was no problem.
Anyway, Laufen didn't stop it either, which meant there was no problem, he thought to himself with a clear conscience.
"Is it really this amazing? Can I do it again?!" Uzumaki Naruto's desire was plain to see.
My future self ten years from now—who wouldn't be curious!
He must have already become Hokage and brought Sasuke back!
Thinking about the child he had been forced to let go, he added a thought to his heart: he would also bring back his and Sasuke's child!
When the time comes, he'll have one child in his left hand and Sasuke in his right; hehe, this is probably the peak of life in novels.
“You'll have to ask Lambo about that.” Tsunayoshi looked down and pointed at the child in the black and white cow suit behind his legs. "That's his stuff."
Uzumaki Naruto immediately crouched down to meet the other's gaze, "Hello, I am Uzumaki Naruto."
Your name is Lambo, right?
"That's right, I am the great Lambo." The child in the black and white cow outfit stood with his hands on his hips, shaking his hair, which looked like it had been struck by lightning.
"You're so small, how can you be so amazing!" Uzumaki Naruto exclaimed, looking at the child who didn't even seem to walk very steadily.
"Right, right, right, Lambo-sama is indeed very amazing." Lambo nodded, feeling very happy to be praised.
Then can Lord Lambo do it one more time!" Uzumaki Naruto's eyes sparkled. "Just like before, turn this big brother into his self ten years from now!
He pointed at Geto Suguru.
Lambo, who was essentially just a child at heart, could hardly handle such an enthusiastic reception; he immediately pulled the Ten-Year Rocket Cannon out from his curly hair.
Accompanied by Uzumaki Naruto's "waaa!" and Tsunayoshi's scream, the Ten-Year Rocket Cannon fired at Geto Suguru once again.
With his back to the others, Geto Suguru, who was still engaged in a serious discussion with Gojo Satoru, felt a familiar heat.
..
Watching the smoke spread once again before him, Gojo Satoru remained quite calm.
In his mind, no matter what kind of Geto Suguru appeared, it couldn't possibly be worse than the Geto who was on the verge of death after losing an arm.
So, Gojo Satoru spoke with a smile, "Geto.. who are you?"
Geto Suguru, wearing monk's robes and with a hideous scar running across his head, appeared before the crowd.
Heading toward Shibuya, prepared to capture Gojo Satoru and eliminate the obstacles trapping him, he stared in shock at the group of people before him.
“This is also Geto Suguru?” A hint of doubt appeared in Uzumaki Naruto's wide eyes. "His aura doesn't really seem like it."
“He is not Geto.” Gojo Satoru was shocked to the extreme, to the point where he no longer felt any emotional fluctuations.
"It's just that this body belongs to Geto." He stated his judgment calmly.
Sua scanned the people around him, focusing his gaze on Gojo Satoru.
Although the plan was to seal Gojo Satoru away, that was under the assumption that Gojo Satoru would be alone and surrounded by helpers. Now, the situation was exactly the opposite, which was clearly disadvantageous to him; he had to escape this place first before making any further plans.
Anyway, as long as this face is still here, taking down Gojo Satoru won't be a problem.
Saku stared at Gojo, his figure quickly bolting outward.
Gojo Satoru also moved, but in the next second, he came to a sudden halt.
"What on earth is this?" Uchiha Obito said, grabbing his head.
With his space-time abilities, he was the ultimate master of escape; trying to run away from him was no joke!
"It looks so familiar, like I've seen this look somewhere before?" Uzumaki Naruto stared at the stitches on the other person's head, lost in thought.
"Jasmine," Uchiha Sasuke reminded.
Ah, right, right, right, that noble!" Uzumaki Naruto slapped his thigh. "That's exactly it.
I thought I would have to search for a long time after returning to find any clues, but I didn't expect to see the culprit who turned Jasmine into a Cursed Spirit right here.
He and Uchiha Sasuke exchanged a glance.
Possessing both a host and having lived for so many years, it seems the conspiracy is quite significant.
"Why does this thing feel so similar to Black Zetsu?" Uzumaki Naruto muttered to himself. He could also undergo possession, he could also live for so many years.
Upon hearing this, the Uchiha members cast particularly unfriendly looks, vowing to dig the conspiracy out of his mouth.
No one could keep a secret under a pile of Mangekyou Sharingan, Sasuke was no exception.
As he spat out one secret after another, everyone eagerly began to gossip about the Jujutsu World.
Whoa, Geto is dead," Uzumaki Naruto exclaimed. "I couldn't tell, you really had the nerve to do it!
Gojo Satoru clenched his fist; he hadn't expected something like this to happen either.
“Hasn't Geto Suguru just defected? There's no need to be so ruthless."
You should learn from me," Uzumaki Naruto said seriously. "Back then, Sasuke didn't learn his lesson either; he ran off with people from outside the village.
Uchiha Sasuke shot him a glance but said nothing.
Then I certainly can't agree, with your single-minded determination to bring him back!
And then I made up my mind that no matter what, nothing could stop my determination to bring Sasuke back.
