After the end of the day, at dusk.

Xia Nan stayed on Naruto Rock for a whole day, and he just sat on it and watched the scenery. As a result, he forgot about the time. When he remembered that he was going to pick up Itachi who had finished school, it was more than half an hour before the school was over.

Xia Nan, who was completely immersed in Konoha's old days, rushed to the scene and ended up being late.

When he arrived at the school gate, Itachi stood alone in front of the school gate. When he saw Xia Nan who was late, his eyes lit up slightly and seemed to become much more active.

"Ah hahaha, I accidentally lost my way on the road of life. I'm sorry to be late." Xia Nan waved his arm and said, haha. Behind his seemingly natural actions was full of embarrassment. After all, it would be embarrassing to be late for picking up children, not to mention that he has a certain identity as a teacher.

Xia Nan walked over and touched Itachi's little head. He found that Itachi was in the shadow of a wall. The environment here was dark and not suitable for being discovered, but it also had a good vision. Did he master the key points of ninja at a young age? But if he thought so, he would just think too much. With Xia Nan's understanding, he guessed that Itachi was just trying to avoid the crowd.

"Are you waiting for a hurry?"

When Xia Nan reached out her hand to hold Itachi, the latter raised her head slightly and received it from behind without any trace.

"Forehead……"

Itachi looked at Xia Nan silently, and his big black eyes stared at Xia Nan.

I have to say that Itachi was really cute when he was a child. If he had long hair, he would probably be regarded as a girl, right? Although the two tear lines look a little older, this is also a cute one. But the premise is that the other party will not stare at you with a look of "I will just look at you silently, and when will you seriously apologize to me before I will pay attention to you."

Xia Nan had goosebumps when she looked at her.

“…I’m sorry, I’m late.”

Xia Nan lowered her head in frustration and said.

At this time, Itachi closed his eyes with satisfaction, and after making a soft "um" sound, he held Xia Nan's hand that came. When the two of them came, they were asked to do this by Mikoto, so they naturally did this when they left.

As for why Xia Nan did not reject this feeling of intimacy, it was probably because it was not annoying in this world. At least before he was on the wrong path, Xia Nan could not feel disgusted with a little boy of five or six years old.

Or as Bai Quan once said, Xia Nan's tolerance for children is the same as his tolerance for women, and the upper limit is always much higher than when treating men. Of course, it may also be related to the world where Xia Nan came from. Although naughty children are indeed annoying, anyone who is quiet and cute will want to get close to them.

Walking home, Xia Nan asked about some things Itachi encountered at Ninja School.

And Itachi also answered one by one that there was no hidden place.

Overall, Itachi doesn't hate the life and system of the ninja school. It's sometimes interesting to have teachers and classmates in the school, but fundamentally it feels that it's just a waste of time. Itachi has always been eager to graduate from the ninja school in advance and become a ninja as soon as possible, but Fugaku doesn't agree with him doing this.

"My father hoped I could play more with friends from other families at school, but their games were too boring and training was boring. I felt that was just a waste of time."

Itachi lowered his head and carried his schoolbag, complaining and kicked a stone on the side of the road.

"Your father hopes that you can take over his responsibilities in the future. Cultivating relationships from the basics is a good choice." Xia Nan said.

Fugaku's idea should be to plan to plan 10 years later. Xia Nan thought so. After all, from an ordinary perspective, the Fourth Generation is only in his 20s now, and the fourth generation will be in power in the next 15-20 years. But how can Fugaku think about the true lifespan of the Fourth Generation is less than 2 months left?

However, this cannot be said that there is something wrong with Fugaku's idea. After all, let alone Fugaku, even the third generation, they would not have foreseeed this situation.

The collapse problem caused by the death of the Fourth Generation is probably the result of Fugaku's mentality collapse. The rumors caused by the Nine-Tail incident caused Uchiha, who had originally seen a glimmer of hope in the Fourth Generation, also collapsed collectively. It was really like those investors who bought A-shares last week, and this week, who met Tiantai this week.

Xia Nan touched his chin, and he thought about looking back and still had to talk to Fugao. After all, your investment is investment, but risk control still needs to be done. Take Itachi as an example. You planned to foreshadow the relationship network in the early stage. If the next four generations die, you will collapse directly. Not only will your son jump to the fourth-level and graduate early, but he was sent to the secret department as a microphone?

But the rumor was not done well, and the double-faced spy asked the third generation of Naruto to send it back...

After thinking about it carefully, I feel that Fugaku is really miserable.

"But... this is a waste of time. I would rather stay in the family to practice."

"So what? Do you want me to talk to your father so that you can graduate early?"

Itachi nodded slightly red. After all, it was a very embarrassed to use his teacher for the first time. It was like when he was in the late stage of the year, he directly smeared Obito, blinded Penn's supervision, and even played the trick into the great illusion. He didn't even change his expression, and even felt a sense of confidence that he took for granted?

"My father will seriously consider the words of Teacher Xia Nan."

Itachi said so.

Although he didn't understand what happened behind Xia Nan and Fugaki, from Itachi's perspective, Xia Nan does have the ability to influence his father's decisions. After all, not everyone can be called by his father. When he was talking in the study, he was still outside and letting Zuo Emon guard no one was allowed to approach.

Xia Nan rolled her eyes. He felt that Itachi looked down on him a little too much, and he put his own importance too low. Fugao could not listen to him in Itachi's future arrangements. Strong intervening would only attract Fugao's anger and counterattack. The scene would be like he threatened Obito with Lin, and directly from indirect cooperation to a situation that would never end.

Xia Nan has suffered a lot in this kind of thing. He vomited blood for three times and has not recovered until now.

Obviously, I wouldn't have reached this point.

"Itachi, you have to know - walk your own path and wipe your tears by yourself."

"Can't you help me?"

"I promise you that you will definitely take action in the future, but it is not in the sensitive period now."

Xia Nan said with some point, as his eyes looked at Itachi, as if he was looking at some point in the future.

"...I'm sorry, I'm the willful one."

Itachi did not understand the meaning of Xia Nan's words, and regarded it as some kind of rude explanation.

Xia Nan rubbed Itachi's little head and sighed helplessly as he looked at his disappointed expression.
