Chapter 31

After Orochimaru was defeated he was able to open his scroll and use the seal to move, his team turned into something like fire, and began to slowly burn as if they were turning into flames and disappeared, the raikage was of course angry that he had lost them, but he was overjoyed that his comrades had survived, and the guests from Konoha had helped them well in the defense of his village, Itachi also noticed that his black t-shirt had a scratch on the chest area, and it was a little torn, "I guess during the fight with the second hokage, his suiton got me..."Itachi thought to himself, placing his stuff near his bedroom, his pouch near the nightstand, his water and glass next to it, and his duffel inside the nightstand, he didn't have much stuff, as he was always more comfortable traveling light, Hiashi was already asleep in the next room, and Itachi knew that he was glad to be on this mission, at least he was distracted from the supremacy of his Hyuga clan, Itachi lay on the bed thinking about the second Hokage.

"Before I sealed his body, I looked into his mind and saw his childhood, and even Sarada herself, although I had imagined everything exactly like that, even when I read his diary in detail, also in his memoirs I saw his 25 years of age, he then wondered about the fact that until souls are reincarnated, there is still a trace of the previous life in their blood, so they can be summoned with them, and also if you write the seal of hirayshin in the scroll, and smear it with blood, it can really call those in paradise to life, but he also realized that this requires a price, namely a human body, and if his soul is already in another body, he can not be called, because now he has another vessel of another body, and blood, and that life does not disappear but becomes a memory and they remain in paradise, and the worst lives of people are simply destroyed, because Kami-sama knows that there is no point in keeping them".

"Tobirama-senju initially created this technique to resurrect the love of his life, but then he realized that sooner or later he would have to undo the technique, because she wouldn't be the same flesh and blood, and it's even sad, but he decided not to summon her, He knew that if he summoned her, even just to talk to her, he would open up his wounds from his childhood, so he didn't even start, he used the edo-tensei mainly to interrogate prisoners from the first world war shinobi, when he took two stubborn hostages, one he killed in cold blood because it was war, and after taking his blood, he used the body of the other prisoner, and used edo-tensei to force him to tell him all the weaknesses of the enemy, and it always worked well for him, Konoha was always one step ahead, because his technique made him talk and subdue even the most stubborn, he even wanted to use Hashirama, but did not interrupt him from paradise, because he knew in his heart it would hurt him to kill people for the sake of victory.... and so realizing he was a weapon, that's why Tobirama only spoke to him in his grave, he probably thought Kakuzu felt like a God for killing him, but if he got caught he'd be a corpse for sure, all these thoughts I saw in the second hokage when I looked into his mind with the sharingan, and yet it's a shame he didn't have the chance to live in love, and I'm sure he found out that Izumi was her reincarnation, since he personally saw her soul leave paradise..."

Finishing his contemplation he closed his eyes, lay back in bed, fell into peace again and fell asleep.

Waking up early in the morning, they packed their belongings and started to go outside the gates of the cloud village and they were escorted personally by the raikage, and Darui along with Shi, reaching the gates of the raikage starts:

-Thank you again, if it wasn't for you, the village would have had a very hard time against the two hokage," the raikage said with a smile, and looking towards Hiashi to speak, "If it wasn't for your improved sensory skills, Hiashi-hyuga, we wouldn't have discovered Orochimaru, our village is in your debt.

-It's been a long time since I've been to a mission, much less a rank-S, but I'm glad I ended up here-" Hiashi replied with a slight smile, and the raikage did as well and extended his hand, and Hiashi shook it.

-It's been an honor to fight shoulder to shoulder with you-good luck to you-" Shi replied, folding his arm across his chest and smiling proudly.

-And thank you Itachi Uchiha, because not only were you able to stop Orochimaru's plans, but you also defeated the second hokage," said the raikage looking towards the protagonist, Itachi answered him with a nod, meanwhile Darui shook hands with Hiashi and walked towards Itachi adding:

-You know... your art-amaterasu is impressive, you used space distortion in the form of fire, but if you master the lightning element, you can use not black-fire, but black lightning, which is superior to mine-" Darui said and shook Itachi's hand with a smile, and he nodded as he realized that his theory was true.

-I think we should go, it's been a pleasure staying here, but I guess mission accomplished means we should go, and take care of yourselves-" After Itachi answered, he pulled out his dark cloak with the blue lock from the scroll and put it on.

-I'll be glad to come back here again if I get the chance," after Hiashi's words, they nodded with a smile and headed back to their village, the two travelers already walking towards Konoha through the dense forests.

-You know... - Heashi began, but Itachi looked at him and continued to listen. "In the beginning I wasn't happy that we were going to Cloud Country, because I know that my little brother died because of them, and they even tried to kidnap my daughter," Heashi said thoughtfully.

-Don't judge an entire country by one person, because minor side effects shouldn't go from spark to flame, and people shouldn't be judged by first impressions either," Itachi replied, looking ahead and continuing to ponder everything.

-I agree, but after the missions with them, and even those times when we fought shoulder to shoulder with them, it was like we were from the same village, and we worked very closely together, and especially when you and Darui went after Orochimaru, and I stayed with Shi.... that rank-S mission, also working with the cloud village, and especially you, changed my understanding completely," Hiashi answered honestly.

-I'm glad that everything is going smoothly and under control, and now it's time to get to Konoha, if we're lucky we'll get there in 2 days - having finished the phrase, Itachi smiled to himself that he had improved the second time line again.

***

It had been about 2 days since the two travelers came out of the lightning country, they could have sped up to Konoha like lightning but there was no point, so they got there slowly and got there, Izumo and Kotetsu were at the gate, they were bored of being sentries, so they bought themselves two rubik's cubes, Itachi watched the whole thing with his sharingan, and even smiled slightly when he saw that they weren't too bored, now they were already entering Konoha through the gate, and Izumo and Kotetsu waved at them, Itachi nodded, and then they continued to assemble their colorful cubes.

Now they were on their way to the hokage's residence to inform the third hokage of the successful completion of their missions, Itachi and Hiashi entered the building and headed towards the hokage's office, upon reaching the door Itachi opened it and saw the third hokage sitting in the office, Kisame and Kakashi, Kisame was wearing his black cloak like Itachi, and Kakashi was wearing his black jonin outfit, and they turned around to see Itachi and his partner.

Itachi's POV

-Heheh, here-so meeting Itachi-san looks like you've completed your mission- -Kisame began with his grin full of teeth.

-The mission has been completed," I said, looking at the third man, who was glad that everything was okay, and turning my gaze to Kisame and Kakashi, I continued, "What are you guys doing here?" I said.

-We have a ranga-A mission, the nukenin from the sand village are going to attack the water country, they have special puppets that can take the exact form of their enemies, and our mission is to help them," Kakashi answered looking at me, and decided to add, "By the way, as you already know, recently there was a graduation at the academy, I was glad to hear him say that everything was going smoothly and Kakashi continued - he decided to move back to his first one, where his student lives next to him, I think his name is Rock-Lee - said Kakashi, though he will meet his real students in a year.

-Kakashi nodded as he and Kisame left for the mission together, Kisame looked in my direction before leaving and said, "I'm glad I'm back on missions again, heheh, I've forgotten my adrenaline cravings for the past 3 years, I was the teacher of the class, I was personally the teacher for Rock-Lee's class, and they obeyed me right away, they were probably afraid of my appearance, heheh, we're going to have a nice vacation Itachi-san," Kisame said with a smile, and as I walked out the door I answered him with a smile on my left lip.

-After I return from the missions, I'll be back at my house again, and I'll see you later Itachi-san - Kakashi said with a slight smile, taking Kisame's habit of calling me by suffix, and leaving with Kisame for the Ranga-A mission, in the hallway they continued their conversation -By the way, that's an interesting cloak you have, maybe I should buy one, too.... - Their voices began to fade, and it was rather silent after the door closed.

-Sandaime-sama, is that it, or are there still missions left?" asked Hiashi, looking at the third, and from the outside it looked like he wanted more missions.

-No Hiashi, this is a difficult mission accomplished, I think you could use some rest after a hard day," said the third, inhaling smoke from his own tobacco, and exhaling added looking in my direction, "the fourth reikage told me in a letter that you were able to prevent the resurrection of the first hokage, I'm glad my method of chakra suppression in the kunai worked, that's what the second one taught me, but about the second one, Orochimaru revived him almost to his full strength, but you still managed to defeat him, good job, Now I think that Orochimaru will heal his wounds for a long time in one of his own caves, he was always interested in them when he was interested in snakes - a little sadly said the third remembering Orochimaru as he used to be, and transferring his gaze to me continued - Hiashi, Itachi the mission is completed successfully you can go home, and have a nice rest Itachi-sama - I smiled and left the office, from the fact that not only Kakashi took the example of Kisame, but the third one too?, Heh...

Now we walked out of the hokage building residences with Hiashi, he looked in my direction and decided to start with a slight smile:

-I'm glad I'm back on the missions, it was a great time, it's a shame I have to go back to my clan duties, I think my people took good care of it while I was gone," Hiashi said as he looked forward.

-I'm sure nothing has changed in such a short time, we've only been away from Konoha for four days," I said to Hiashi.

-Really... - He said the word, he was silent for a couple of seconds and added, "By the way, I'm sure my daughter's house has already prepared dinner, would you like to stay?

-Of course," I said with a smile, since I was really hungry and wanted to save money and also I still wanted to go to the Hyuga Clan in the evening, but going now is a much better option heh.

We went to the Hyuga quarter and already reached it, the sky was pure blue, it felt life and joy, not a single cloud in the sky, I walked in my own black cloak, dark blue lock, and dark blue color on the inside, from the collar they clearly visible, I even like that I got exactly the cloak that I wanted, and that well symbolizes me, and going into the clan-hyuga, many people immediately noticed the head of the clan and bowed slightly, and looking in my direction also bowed, because I am the main hero who saved Konoha, they call me that, although I do not feel like a hero for having exterminated the entire clan, but over time I have gotten used to it, and just accepted it as a small reward...

We started walking towards Hiashi's house, and suddenly one of the Hyuga clan people ran towards us, and his name is Ko, I know who he is, he was Hinata's bodyguard when she was a child, I've learned a lot about a lot of people in the clan during these 3 years, and in paradise I saw him too, he was wearing a chunin outfit, but now he was wearing a black kimono, and he started running towards us:

-Head Hero of Konoha, it's an honor to welcome you," he bowed lightly, and I nodded with a slight smile, and he looked over to Hiashi and continued, "Hiashi-sama glad you're back, the clan was fine, all the instructions went smoothly as you left them.

-Kou did a great job, and now I'm going to rest, I think I could use the rest, because the mission was difficult as it was - answered the clan leader, Kou nodded and vanished in white smoke, as it was his shadow clone.

-Ko-hyuga, the rumors about him were true, he really is a man of honor," I began, smiling slightly, for I was interested in the Hyuga clan.

-He's not just a good friend, he's a member of the family, after his brother died, it was like he was trying to fill the void and became a brother himself, and for Hinata, he was like a guardian angel too, I'm sure my late wife would have been happy to have him home as family," Hiashi said sadly, remembering his late wife, she died of brain cancer, I've learned a lot about her too, even that she was a good mother and loved Hinata and her youngest daughter named Hanabi.

-I sympathize, I understand what it's like to lose someone close to you- I answered honestly, and he pulled a sad face in front of his daughters and we had already reached his house.

This house was exactly like mine, back in the Uchiha quarter, the same foundations, the same walls, and the corridors inside were the same, I could see the whole house with my sharingan, and when I entered the threshold of the house I naturally took off my sandals, and the atmosphere was much more pleasant, and when I went into the hallway with Hiashi, two girls came out of their rooms with presents for their father, and when they saw me they were surprised because they knew who I was, Hanabi blushed when she saw me, and Hinata bowed slightly and said:

-Good to see you Itachi-san make yourself at home-Hinata acted like an adult and greeted me personally, and Hiashi added a smile, seeing how responsible she was, and she presented her gift to her father, my sharingan was off, but I guessed it was a pure white kimono, because the look of the box was similar.

-Hanabi handed me a second gift, and Hinata looked at her strangely for a moment, and I took the box and found a sapphire glass, which was like a real blue sapphire, and reminded me of my cape that I was wearing.

-Thank you," I smiled with my left lip and added, "I appreciate it," she blushed after I said that, I saw that look when I was in academy well throwing kunai at me some girls looked at me like that, and among them was even Izumi, maybe she has a childish love for me, Heh.

-Hinata, did you set the table? -Hinata, we have a guest tonight, I think it's time to start eating-" Hiashi asked looking at Hinata.

-I followed them, but I hid the gift from Hanabi in a scroll. When I reached the kitchen, I saw 13-year-old Neji Hyuga, who I'd also gotten to know well during the year I'd been in paradise, and now he was setting the table for dinner, soup bowls filled with homemade ramen.

-Head Hero of Konoha, I'm honored to have you as our guest-" Noticing me Neji even smiled.

It was even interesting, because he wasn't like that in the first timeline, at first he was frowning and indifferent, but now he was like that, but maybe he's only like that with me, but I'll understand the reason later, but right now everyone sat down at the table and started to eat lunch, and it was very tasty, just like in Ichiraku, during lunch I asked who cooked, and it was Hanabi's handiwork, and Hinata helped, and I found out that Neji Hyuga was on Team Gai, which made me smile, because I knew that the second timeline was under control, and Hiashi told me the story of the mission, and I decided to keep quiet about the resurrection of the first and second hokage, because I knew that Hanabi was afraid of ghosts, and edo-tensei is a similar technique, but it's not ghosts, heh...

The meal was over, I thanked Hiashi for such a nice meal, he nodded and shook my hand, when I wanted to leave the house I was stopped by Hinata to ask:

-Itachi-san, do you see Naruto-kun often?" she asked, blushing slightly as she remembered Naruto, I nodded with a smile, and she continued, "Do you know where he lives?

-I'm sure you'll find out soon enough, but I don't want to change your fate," I replied with a smile and walked out of the house, she was glad that I hinted that they were going to meet soon, and she got the hint from my philosophy.

I put my sandal back on and walked away from the house, but decided to take a last look at their conversation, and activating my sharingan I saw Hanabi walk up to Hinata and fold her arms across her chest with a bit of anger.

-What was that you were talking about- Hanabi asked.

-Hanabi are you still in love with him," Hinata interjected with a smile as she looked at Hanabi, still replying, "We were talking about academia and our own.

-He's the main-hero of Konoha who saved us from another fox demon attack, and he's so handsome and smart and smells so-pleasant," she said the word with a smile as if she was flying in a cloud.

-Silly, he's almost 8 years older than you," Hinata replied with a smile as she looked at her little sister and continued, "and by the way why did you give him the gift we were preparing for dad?

-Because I said yesterday that my father wouldn't like gifts like that, after the missions return, he'll be satisfied with a fresh white kimono, and Itachi will consider it his well-deserved reward, and when we get married and have lots of cute kids, we might remember about this gift.

Hinata responded by abruptly closing her mouth with her hand covering her mouth to keep from laughing.

-Don't laugh, I mean it!", Hanabi said offensively to her older sister, and Hinata continued to laugh lightly.

I deactivated the sharingan, smiling at the sisters' interesting conversation, and moved on, leaving the beautiful Hyuga neighborhood, though people didn't stop bowing to me easily, when I left the Hyuga clan, I headed to the castle-kikyo, I started to ponder, thinking about how much I had changed, was it worth it all to continue? or what Shisui is thinking, what he's doing now, is he planning a revenge plan for Konoha, just questions, but soon I'll find out why he's in Akatsuki, I sat down on the porch of the castle-kikyo, took off my dark cloak, and put it back in the scroll, and even quickly changed my black T-shirt to my pure black T-shirt, my T-shirt, which was a gift from Hana, was a little torn, but no problem, I'll mend it later, I've been sitting here for about an hour, thinking about things, and I'm going to go home, so I pass by the ninja academy, I noticed Sakura there starting to throw a 4kunai in a trajectory, she's changed too much in the month I haven't seen her, the last time I saw her was near the main street of Konoha when I was on my way to buy my groceries, we said hi, I asked her about her inner version, She said she had learned to keep it all together, she still had that pink blouse she wore then, but now she had a red light dress with the Haruno clan symbol on it, and her hair was longer, I approached her to ask how she was doing, and she smiled at me as she stood on the training field.

-Hi Sakura how's your progress with the kunai?", I smiled lightly starting the conversation.

-It's perfect! She took one kunai in each hand and threw the right kunai between the first and second targets, and threw the second kunai between the third and fourth targets, then she took another kunai in each hand and threw the left kunai to the left and the right kunai to the right, and they hit each other, changed trajectories, and all four kunai hit all the targets, right in the center.

-Impressive," I say smiling, folding my arms across my chest, and she turns her gaze back to me and wonders.

-How did your mission go Itachi-san, I heard that you met a particularly dangerous criminal, although I don't know his name, but they say he's as slippery as a snake-" she said as if she had seen Orochimaru in person, although if she had, she would have reacted that way.

-The mission was successfully accomplished, I'm fine too, and the hokage is happy too - I said again rubbing her hair, it was already a habit of mine, I also added -you've honed your skill in trajectories well, have you thought of developing it?

-Of course!, show me how to throw eight kunai already, I'd appreciate it, -she replied smiling and looking at me, I knew it would be easier to teach her because she already knew the basics, I showed her back then, and now I nodded.

And I started to take in my hands, in each inter-finger 4 kunai, and seeing 8 targets that surrounded me, I made a jump and threw between each target, and again I threw with the rest of the kunai that I had in my hand and hit each target, in the center, this time I was without sharingan, because for such a long time I had developed my skill well that, possible even blindly could throw, and even hit a couple of targets, Sakura smiled in surprise, she started to try too, although I knew she wouldn't be able to do it right away, but one day she would use it with all the kunai, I practiced with her for another hour, then we decided to rest for a while, we started to walk down the main street of Konoha, on the way she started to talk about her classmates, when she mentioned, the name of two classmates who have been studying with them for two years now, the names were Sai and Torune, I realized that Danzo had made sure that these kids didn't waste their lives in the anbu, but instead lived good lives in the academy and found great friends, not the cold-blooded ones in the anbu, Danzo may have even found a way to make Torune Aburama, could control his poison, or even give him special medicine and drugs so that his purple poison wouldn't infect any of his peers, I was even happy for him, and Sakura continued to tell me details about his classmates, I could tell from her that Ino was trying to spend more time with Sasuke, and he was rejecting her with a cold response, and then when Sai showed up, Sakura said it sounded nice, she described them well, that they have a lot in common, they often talk and even sometimes go out after academies, and Sakura is trying to be the best in the class, but so far she is not equal, she praised herself with a smile, finishing the chocolate ice cream that I bought her when I walked her home, she said thank you for the ice cream and for taking the time to teach her, I smiled and headed towards home, it was already night, as the sunset was ending, so I took a shortcut towards the park with benches to get home and get some sleep after such an exhausting day, the stars were beginning to appear, the moon was also rising and the sunset had finally set, I noticed the background of the moon at the side of the castle-kikyo, it was already night, I continued walking through the park, and it felt good, I began to walk slowly enjoying the beauty of the land, and the stars that can be seen from here, and I will not let Sasuke destroy this world, his end will be me, and by doing so I will even save him from himself, even without the essence of Indra, he has his own anger and revenge, while I was thinking about this, I was looking at the full moon at the castle-kikyo, and as I looked forward I noticed a funnel, I recognized the funnel immediately, it was Toby, out of the funnel he started to come out, he had an orange mask and a black cloak with red clouds, and now he was wearing a pure black t-shirt, and I didn't even have a pouch, I wanted to get the scroll, get the pouch out of it, but Toby started:

-You're only 17 years old, and already the Hokage is treating you like yourself? Interesting," he said in a calm voice and continued, "Calm down, I'm just here to talk.

-And what about? I suppose you've been following me all day...? - I asked, holding the kunai I'd taken out of the scroll in my right hand, because I didn't trust Toby.

-Actually... I even enjoyed your day, dinner with the Hyugami, and training with that pink-haired girl, I'm sure she'll make a great kunoichi in time," he said with a little laugh.

-So what do you want to do? Attack Konoha?" I asked him with a serious look on my face.

-Actually, I wanted to talk about Shisui"-I raised an eyebrow and listened to him calmly-"I don't know his purpose, or the real reason why he's with us, but he told me the reason for joining, and his purpose is to kill you Itachi"-After he said that, I could tell from his voice that Tobi was telling the truth.

-But why? - I asked the question with my head slightly lowered to the ground

-At first my theory was that he wanted revenge on Konoha for wiping out his clan, but he confirmed that it's not even close to being true, his real reason is to get back at you for doing something worse than wiping out your clan, so tell me what is it? - Toby questioned me.

-I have no idea what it is, but I'm curious why you're suddenly informing me," I answered honestly, and looked at Toby questioningly.

-I must admit that Shisui scares me sometimes, with his koto-amatsukami he can even awaken Madara with a single blow, his grandfather Kagami Uchiha spent years accumulating natural chakra, standing on the peaks to feel not just nature but the cosmos as well, it's not just a technique called koto-amatsukami, legends say this technique was used by the Gods, and if he ever uses this technique on me, he can destroy all my plans to save the world, and I'm sure that only you can stop him, then his koto-amatsukami will stop working on me - he finished his speech looking at me intently.

-I'm sure you're telling me this for another reason too, you want to see who's the stronger of the two of us, and if I kill him in revenge, and when I'm distraught, you'll take advantage of that by trying to recruit me into your ranks? Akatsuki?" I said, noticing how surprised he was, though he didn't look surprised, I continued, "I wiped out my clan, and I'm sure you've realized that I'm not emotional, and you can't manipulate me even if I'm an Edo-tensei.

-Now I understand why they call you a genius, or a protagonist, and you're right it's the second reason, you would have been a great shinobi in my organization... sorry... - he started to disappear on the funnel, and finally added, "We'll meet again Itachi...".

I lowered my head and thought about his words, what did I do to Shisui that he wants to kill me, so that's his reason for joining, but I'll find out soon, although Toby was wrong about one thing, koto-amatsukami won't go down even if the one who used it dies, it was obvious that he didn't know much about God level techniques....

-Maybe he'll be back, but we'll be ready for him... - I turned sharply in the direction of that voice, which sounded in the direction of a tree near the park, and saw a third hokage dressed as the hokage, but listening to us the whole time, begin to emerge.

-Third... I asked him, and he nodded, indicating that he had been there for a long time.

-Shisui has always seemed good, but I'm sure you'll save him sooner or later," the third man said confidently, and continued, "Two years ago, you once told me a theory that Shisui could use the koto-amatsukami technique on Danzo, causing him to become emotional, I ordered his right hand Fu Yamanaka to look into his mind, and that theory turned out to be true, but Danzo still can't talk about it, although I think Shisui made a nice gift before he left the konoha, and the reasons for it are not clear, but I'm sure you'll find out soon enough.

Fu Yamanaka used this technique while Danzo was asleep, and yet few people know about it, Fu still stayed at the anbu headquarters, and decided not to follow Torune to the academy, even though he knew it was the best decision, the anbu was his home.

-You know Itachi, I'm sure you know who the man in the orange mask is, when the time comes he will be defeated too, because the will of fire of all the shinobi of the world can't be extinguished so easily, -when the third one said that, I remembered the moment when Obito became the jinchuriki of the 10-tails, and all the shinobi really worked together to defeat him and still pulled the chakra out of him.

-What were you doing here, by the way? -And how did you know he was following me? - I asked, and he closed his eyes and prepared to explain.

-Actually, I didn't know, when I finished all my work as hokage, I took this scroll - he took out a blue scroll from his left pouch and continued - I was coming your way to give you this scroll - he gave me a scroll and when I read the name I realized it belonged to the second hokage, I smiled that he had entrusted me with such an important thing, after all, these things can't be touched by anyone, they were in the castle-kikyo, But since the world depended on it, I guess even the second hokage wouldn't mind if I used them, and the third one took out another yellow scroll, it had the inscription of the fourth hokage, I took it too, and then he added - when I found you, I found a strange vortex, so I decided to follow you, hiding behind a nearby tree, and I was preparing to call my shinobi to the anbu, but I didn't want to risk it being too strong.

-I am honored that you gave me these scrolls, they hold all the secrets of the techniques of the hiraishin, the second hokage and an improved version of the fourth hokage, I will master them and not fail - I said hiding these scrolls in my storage scroll and the third nodded with a smile.

-Itachi Uchiha, now all hope is on you... - When he said that, I felt a strange de-ja-vision, then I remembered that the sage had told me the same thing, and the third one had mentioned it at the beginning, when I was creating the second timeline, -I'm sure you'll master them faster than Minato, and you said once that if a star is blue and massive, it's faster, so become the blue lightning of Konoha, because philosophy is your element.

-I don't think anyone should see this, and especially not to know that I saw the leader of the Akatsuki, it will cause panic among the population, see you later third - said I took out a black cloak, and put it on, and the third nodded with a smile, understanding my hint, so that the inhabitants do not worry, and passed by as if he had not met.

I went home, and going into my apartment, first of all opened these scrolls, and began to read each instruction, and did not miss any detail, and printed to the end, there were even a couple of kunai, already with ready-made seals I memorized them, and studied, now I can create such kunai myself, and know how much chakra should be added to it to make it work...

***

It had been almost a year since I started training with the hiraishin techniques, I had mastered them perfectly in the first few months, but then I started to hone my other skills, having learned the wind element well, and mastered it to a good level so far, I had to prepare to meet Tobi, or worse, Shisui, or the rest of the Akatsuki organizations, and this technique would probably help me in the end, When I was studying hiraishin and wind style for six months, I mostly practiced in open fields where there were only clearings, or trees and grasses, over the next six months, I was able to develop my hiraishin technique to the fastest level, now the lightning was turning yellow, but recently I was able to speed it up even more, and even adjusted the seals, improving them, and applying my physical speed, while moving the lightning was turning blue... Now I'm ready for anything, and I'll protect Konoha personally this time, graduation is coming up, and Kakashi will soon become the leader of Team-7, and they'll finally get to know each other, and my main goal is to protect them so they can become the heroes they should be...

The end of Itachi's POV

Over the years he had also learned immunity to electricity, by training on the electric urchin fish that were in the lake near the Kyuga clan, Hiashi had suggested this type of training, and Itachi had agreed, because he knew it wouldn't be unnecessary, now no lightning would paralyze him or cause damage, He began to lower his hands on the electric fish, and even swam with them they lightly electrocuted him, with time the pain was less, although if he gets hit by the cutting lightning then it can cause harm, even if he is immune to electricity, still the cutting mass, like a knife can cause a cut, scratches, but not a shock from the current... Itachi thought about all this while standing on his castle-kikyo, looking up at the stars in his black-cloak, blue-zipper, and kept looking up at the stars and closing his eyes felt the slightly cool breeze...
