After much deliberation, she still said:
"I will not leave Naruto's side, at least not for the next few years."
Tsunade wanted to wait until Naruto was older and had the ability to protect himself before making any moves.
Kawasaki, with a faint smile on his face, said:
"It's alright. Even if we withdraw from Konoha, we can't withdraw all at once. Your condition won't change in the short term."
...
Sasuke is not young anymore, even though his master failed to become the Fifth Hokage today.
But everyone seemed completely unsurprised.
Sasuke knew that.
All of this was part of the teacher's plan.
Since Sasuke became his disciple, his master has always been this calm and composed.
Everything was under his control, and Sasuke had hardly ever seen his teacher train him over the years.
Even Itachi and Shisui, and even Fugaku.
Sasuke had seen them on the training field.
I've never seen my master go to the training ground.
Master doesn't seem to like fighting. He won't resort to fighting if a problem can be solved without it.
Master rarely takes action, but every time he does, the entire ninja world knows about it.
Since becoming his apprentice, the living conditions of the entire family have changed a lot.
All the Uchiha clan members lived a good life.
When his master became the clan leader, his prestige within the Uchiha clan reached its peak.
A previous baby boom resulted in many more children for the Uchiha clan, most of whom are now four or five years old.
Under their influence, all the children greatly admired Kawasaki.
After experiencing the loss of sight of his father and brother, and now, despite his recovery, he is unable to use the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Sasuke made up his mind to work hard.
First defeat the older brother who can no longer activate the Sharingan, then defeat Shisui.
Awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan and become the pillar of the next generation of the Uchiha clan!
Since Itachi went on a mission last time, Sasuke has been practicing taijutsu rigorously every day.
He wanted to wait for Itachi to return so he could defeat Itachi fair and square in terms of taijutsu.
And today, the opportunity has arrived.
Sasuke and Itachi stood facing each other in the training grounds inside the Uchiha clan.
"Brother, your eyes have only just recovered. Why don't we try again in a while?"
Although eager to try, Sasuke was still concerned about Itachi's health.
Itachi smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry about me, Sasuke, my eyes are completely healed."
Itachi did not activate his Sharingan.
Sasuke was unaware that the recovery Itachi spoke of was different from the recovery he understood.
Chapter 224 The Sarutobi Clan! Itachi VS Sasuke!
"Then, brother, you go first!"
Sasuke said confidently.
Itachi chuckled and said:
"Not even bringing ninja tools, underestimating your opponent is a bad idea, Sasuke."
Itachi's figure vanished instantly.
Sasuke awakened his Sharingan; the three-tomoe Sharingan granted him extraordinary dynamic vision!
"Brother! I'm not a child anymore!"
Sasuke was full of fighting spirit.
Suddenly, Itachi appeared and engaged him in a fierce battle.
His right hand precisely gripped Itachi's left wrist as he held the kunai.
But Itachi's right hand pressed down on Sasuke's left hand, which was just about to draw his sword.
It even prevented Sasuke from drawing his Kusanagi sword.
Sasuke was shocked. His brother across from him clearly no longer had the Sharingan, so how could he keep up with his speed?
Sasuke exerted force on Itachi's hand, but found that Itachi's hand did not move at all.
Using the momentum, Sasuke flipped himself up from the ground and kicked Itachi with both feet.
Itachi bent his knee and pushed Sasuke away.
Sasuke formed hand seals in mid-air and unleashed a powerful fireball technique.
The itachi below took a solid hit from a Fireball Jutsu.
As Sasuke landed, he was startled and thought: I've been caught in a genjutsu?!
No! My brother no longer has the three-tomoe Sharingan, I wasn't affected by the genjutsu.
Bang! The weasel below suddenly exploded into a cloud of smoke.
When did my brother use Shadow Clone Jutsu?!
Sasuke's Sharingan spun rapidly, and he was startled to suddenly see a figure appear behind him.
My brother is so fast!
Having sensed Itachi's presence in advance, Sasuke drew his Kusanagi sword in time.
In an instant, Itachi threw out more than ten shuriken, which Sasuke quickly blocked with his Kusanagi sword.
As Itachi threw the shuriken, his other hand was already forming a hand seal.
Following the shuriken, a powerful fireball technique flew over and crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Itachi's figure shifted amidst the smoke and dust as he approached Sasuke.
Sasuke frantically blocked the sword in his hand and dodged the fireballs on the ground.
At that moment, Itachi used a Body Flicker Technique to slip in and kicked out.
Although Sasuke had seen through Itachi's movements, he had no time to defend himself.
He could only use his remaining left hand to defend himself.
Instantly, a tremendous force struck, and Sasuke felt a sharp pain in his arm.
His body was sent flying instantly.
My brother is so strong!
As Sasuke flew away, Itachi had already completed the hand seals.
The balsam flower has red claws.
As the itachi exhaled flames, he threw shurikens.
The shuriken exploded like scattered fireworks, crashing down on Sasuke like falling meteors.
Sasuke lost feeling in his left hand after being kicked by Itachi.
He had no choice but to hold the Kusanagi sword in his right hand and defend himself, albeit with limited strength.
Sasuke didn't notice that a shadow was moving silently in the smoke from Itachi's first fireball explosion.
Itachi rapidly approached Sasuke.
While moving at high speed, he threw three waves of shuriken at Sasuke.
Sasuke struggled to defend with one hand, and only managed to block Itachi's hidden weapon attack after sustaining injuries.
Sasuke strained his left hand, holding the sword and gazing intently at Itachi.
When Itachi approached Sasuke's body, he did not directly enter the attack range of the Kusanagi sword.
Instead, it suddenly stopped and jumped backward.
Another Itachi has appeared behind Sasuke.
Sasuke was startled. Could it be during the Great Fireball Technique just now?
Sasuke's Sharingan spun rapidly. Although he could see Itachi's movements clearly, he still couldn't tell which one was real.
Seeing his punches and kicks clearly doesn't mean you can defend against them, especially with his left hand injured.
Both Itachis rushed towards Sasuke, but even though Sasuke's Kusanagi sword was sharp, it was still no match for Itachi's bare hands.
In the blink of an eye, the two weasels passed each other, bang! bang!
Four hands reached out and grabbed the Kusanagi sword from his hand.
He grabbed Sasuke's hand and twisted it, locking Sasuke in place.
Bang! The weasel behind him turned into smoke and disappeared.
Itachi smiled and looked at Sasuke, saying, "Sasuke, you lost."
Sasuke smiled smugly and said, "No, brother, you lost."
Sasuke unleashed the power of his three-tomoe Sharingan.
Illusion!
The opposing Itachi stopped instantly!
