Can talk... Itachi looked at the crow on Shisui's shoulder in surprise.
"Come on, kid, sign it."
Then, Itachi saw the crow conjure a scroll out of nowhere and handed it to him.
"What's this?"
Zhisui smiled: "Itachi, have you heard of Mt. Miaomu?"
"No." Itachi shook his head and asked, "What is Mt. Miaomu?"
Don't you know... Shisui's eyes narrowed, he touched Itachi's head and said, "This... it's very troublesome to explain, but in short, just sign it."
Itachi nodded obediently, squatted on the ground, unfolded the scroll, bit his finger, and pressed his fingerprint on it.
Shisui nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the crow on his shoulder with respect.
"Oh, by the way, Itachi, I forgot to introduce you. This person on my shoulder is my teacher, Lord Crow Sage!"
"You have to respect it!"
Itachi stood up holding the scroll, followed Shisui's gaze to look at the crow, and saw that the other person's bright yellow eyes were staring at him. To be honest, Itachi was a little scared.
"Fear comes from unfamiliarity. After a while, you won't be afraid anymore."
The crow seemed to be aware of his emotions, flapped its wings, flew to his head and landed, then folded its wings and lay on it.
Will it poop on my head... Itachi suddenly thought this, and goosebumps suddenly appeared all over his body.
"Put away your distracting thoughts, kid!"
The crow's angry voice came from above.
"Well……!"
It seemed like it could guess my thoughts... Itachi's body stiffened, feeling embarrassed.
"...Lord Crow Sage, I am Itachi Uchiha, please give me your advice."
"snort!"
Crow snorted softly, changed into a comfortable position, and continued to lie on Itachi's head.
Zhisui stood aside and watched this scene with a smile.
In this life, he doesn't want to have any regrets anymore.
"Tomorrow is October 10th, the day when Nine-Tails escapes from trouble. If the Crow Sage is here, the village will have a very powerful guarantee."
"I can't pass up this opportunity."
Shisui tightened his grip on the Tianbu Liuyun Sword at his waist.
This was given to him by the Fifth Hokage Namikaze Minato, a relic of Uchiha Mitsuki.
Zhisui turned around and looked in the direction of Hokage Rock. Although it was covered by the night and the big trees, he couldn't see anything.
But in his mind, the smile of Uchiha Mitsuki on the Hokage Rock had already appeared.
"Master, I will protect my family and the village!" Zhisui's eyes were calm and firm.
After a moment of silence, Zhisui looked back at Itachi and the crow above him, and said, "Teacher, Itachi, let's go back to the village..."
The crow was motionless, as if asleep.
Itachi didn't dare to move because of it on his head, and just gave a simple hum.
Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at Konoha's commercial street.
Although it is getting late, there are still people coming and going here and it is very lively.
Uchiha Mitsuki, who was lying on Itachi's head, opened his eyes lazily.
At this moment, in the long street, there are people shopping, taking children for a walk, walking dogs, and patrolling.
Judging from the smiles on the faces of passers-by, Minato was indeed a good Hokage.
At this time, Uchiha Mitsuki suddenly noticed something. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the telephone pole next to the water tower on the right.
Under the moonlight, a lonely figure stood there alone, with those red eyes seeming to cover the entire street.
Such deep, desperate hatred... Uchiha Mitsuki was suddenly startled, because the man's hatred could be clearly felt even if he did not use his spiritual power.
"What's the matter, teacher?"
Shisui noticed Uchiha Mitsuki's movement, and he looked at the telephone pole on the right in confusion.
However, it was empty and nothing out of the ordinary.
"It's nothing..." Uchiha Mitsuki continued to lie on Itachi's head and replied lazily, "It's too noisy here."
"Sorry...teacher!"
Shisui thought that the passers-by had disturbed the Crow Sage, so he quickly gave Itachi a wink.
The two immediately quickened their pace and walked towards home.
…
Pure land.
In front of the illusory passage.
The Immortal of Six Paths stands with his hands behind his back.
"The time has come!"
"Indra, Asura, please bring change to this world again!"
"I will be in the Pure Land, waiting to absorb the souls you send!"
After the Immortal of Six Paths sent a soul into reincarnation, he disappeared into the void again and fell into a deep sleep.
…
Two o'clock in the morning.
Konoha Village, a secret room in the base near Hokage Rock.
This was specially built for the Fourth Hokage's beloved wife Kushina to give birth to her son.
The base was surrounded by powerful ANBU.
Inside the secret room of the base were guarded the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, one of the Sannin Tsunade, and the Third Hokage's wife Biwako.
They were like stars surrounding the moon, accompanying Kushina as she was giving birth.
And Kushina was lying on the thick floor, clutching her stomach in pain, her white forehead already covered with cold sweat.
"It's about to give birth, please work harder!"
Biwako, who was in charge of the natural delivery, looked at half of the baby's head that had been exposed and encouraged Kushina loudly.
"Uh...ah...!"
Kushina held her husband Minato's hand tightly, exerted her lower body, and a loud cry instantly echoed through the secret room.
"Wow...! Wow wow!"
Biwako was very quick with her hands and feet. She quickly dipped a towel in warm water, wiped the dirt off the baby, and then wrapped the baby in a thick cotton cloth.
"It's a boy!"
Biwako breathed a sigh of relief and softly coaxed the baby boy in her arms.
After a while, when the baby boy's crying subsided, Biwako handed the baby boy to Kushina and Minato.
"Come and see, kid!"
"Our...children?"
Minato and the tired Kushina looked at each other, their faces filled with the confusion of being a first-time father and first-time mother.
But when they saw the crying, wrinkled little guy in the swaddle, they both shed tears instantly.
Their lives have continued at this moment.
The indescribable feeling of being connected by blood drove them to stretch out their hands and face the slightly uneasy child.
Tsunade on the side showed a smile: "Although he is a premature baby, he is a very healthy baby."
"when--!"
However, at this moment, a heavy bell suddenly sounded in the secret room.
A big bell suddenly stood next to Kushina's head. At the same time, Minato and Kushina's hands stretched out in the air could not help but freeze.
Because their child is missing!
"Naruto--!"
Kushina held her head and let out a heart-stopping scream!
Minato held his collapsed wife in his arms.
Then, he cast his cold gaze forward——
Look at the man in black robe standing next to the big clock.
At this moment, his and Kushina's child was being roughly held in the hands of that man.
