The Muscle God of the Uchiha

Duan pulled his nephew up from the ground.

ten minutes later.

Itachi opened the bathroom door and walked out wearing a white T-shirt with cartoon patterns on it and a pair of black shorts.

a bit big.

"This is the clothes the curator wore when he was three years old. There is no smaller one. You can make do with it."

Samyi said while covering her mouth, trying not to snicker and trying to maintain her iceberg beauty persona.

Itachi: "..."

No wonder the style is so childish.

at this time.

With a bang, the door of the gym was pushed open, and two masked ninjas walked in.

"Itachi Uchiha, come with us." The two came to Itachi and said in a voice without any emotion, like a robot.

Itachi's pupils narrowed, recognizing the other person as Genbu. He nodded silently, and then bowed to Duan and Samyi:

"Uncle, senior Samyi, I'm going back first."

"etc."

But Dan stretched out his big hand to stop Itachi and asked, "Are they your ANBU colleagues? I remember that your colleague is obviously a white-haired guy, I think his name is Kakashi, right?"

Hearing this, the two root ninjas took a step forward and warned him coldly:

"Uchiha Dan, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

"You know me?"

Duan was a little surprised, and then replied naturally, "As an uncle, is there anything wrong with me caring about my nephew?"

When he said these words, he put his big hand on Itachi's head.

Itachi froze, and the words he wanted to explain to his uncle were suppressed.

The two of them looked at each other, but after all they didn't push back. They seemed to know that this person was a bit difficult to deal with.

One of them finally told their purpose:

"We were ordered to take Itachi to see the Hokage to assist Danzo-sama."

really.

He knew right away that the other party was not an ANBU, but someone from the root.

The root belongs to the Anbu and is nominally the training department of the Anbu, but in fact it is not under the control of the Third Hokage and is only loyal to Danzo.

Regarding nephew Uchiha Itachi.

Duan was too lazy to take care of it before, but now he has decided to take care of it, and he will take care of it to the end, and will not allow Danzo to harm his nephew again.

then.

He pressed Itachi's head and said to the two roots without thinking:

"Itachi is my sister's son, so he is my son after all. As a parent, I don't want him to go out alone at this late hour, so I want to go with him."

"Impossible!" The two flatly refused.

"Why, is there something shameful? Then I have to go. If you don't agree to my request, get out of here."

Duan Mian said expressionlessly, his tone was obviously very calm, but he was not angry or intimidating.

"Jiang, don't be ungrateful!"

The two Genbu couldn't bear it anymore and immediately prepared to take action.

At this moment of tension.

"Mr. Danzo, Lord Danzo has ordered you and Itachi to come and have a talk." A voice came from the door.

Discontinue the sound.

The person speaking was a man wearing a black cloak, black sunglasses, and a purple mark on the right side of his face.

Aburame Ryoma.

This person is Danzo's confidant and once served as Danzo's bodyguard together with Orochimaru. After Orochimaru defected, Aburame Ryoma became Danzo's top general.

After hearing Aburame Ryoma's words, the two roots immediately put away their hostility towards Dan and honestly stepped aside.

"Then let's go."

Duan was very happy, put his arm around Itachi's shoulders, and walked out the door.

In a dark alley.

Ryoma Aburame put her hands in her pockets and walked at the front.

Dan and Itachi followed behind him, while the two roots were on the left and right, faintly surrounding the uncle and nephew...

Chapter 25, Danzo’s Tea

After exiting the alley.

The group did not go to the root base, but came to a teahouse built under the willow tree on the bank of the Konoha River.

"Danzo-sama has been waiting for a long time, please come in."

Aburame Ryoma turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

This teahouse is built with wooden tiles and covers an area of ​​less than ten square meters. Especially the opening for entry and exit is very low.

It is a square of only 60 centimeters.

"Is this a dog cave? How can I get in with such a small entrance?" Duan frowned, after all, he was too big.

When Itachi saw this, he was worried about misunderstanding, so he took the initiative to explain:

"Uncle, guests must bend down and kneel before entering the tea room. This is not to make things difficult, but to reflect the spirit of equality and humility in the tea ceremony.

Any guest entering in this way means leaving their identity and class behind and entering a non-secular world.

I think Danzo-sama asked us to meet in the tea room to show us equality and friendship. "

Although his speech was a bit leaky because he lost his teeth, Itachi still tried his best to explain the tea ceremony etiquette clearly.

He was born into a wealthy family and had been exposed to this knowledge since he was a child by his father, the patriarch.

"Itachi is right."

Aburame Ryoma expressed his appreciation for Itachi's words, and warned Dan calmly, "Mr. Danzo, Danzo-sama has taken the initiative to humble himself. If you still act arrogantly, don't come in."

"Uncle, let's go in quickly."

Itachi didn't want to embarrass Dan too much, so after saying that, he walked to Yuguchi, took off his shoes and climbed in.

However.

I still go my own way.

He walked to the entrance, grabbed the connecting window above the entrance, and stretched out his hand to pull.

A tearing sound.

Under Aburame Ryoma's stunned gaze, the entire window was taken off and thrown aside.

"The hole is bigger now."

Duan muttered to himself, walked towards Yukou with his burly body, and squeezed into the tea room.

Aburame Ryoma frowned and followed in. The two roots were standing guard at the door.

The tea room is simply decorated.

Although it is small, it is fully equipped with tatami mats, tea tables, tea stoves, and tea sets. Flower arrangements are placed in the corners of the room, and a picture hangs on the niche with the four Chinese characters "He Jing Qing Ji" written on it.

The owner of the teahouse, Danzo, was wearing a kimono, sitting on his knees at the end of the tea table with his eyes closed, his body straightened and his hands on his thighs.

It seems very formal.

Itachi walked quietly to the opposite side of Danzo, and knelt down in the same standard posture, with a serious and polite expression.

I definitely don’t like to sit on my knees.

So he sat down next to his nephew. His huge weight of three hundred kilograms made the entire tea room shake.

It also made Danzo open his eyes.

Duan did as he pleased from the moment he entered the house, didn't follow any rules, and broke all the etiquette that he shouldn't have.

Danzo didn't seem to take it seriously, and just said slowly to Duan:

"Uchiha Dan, I finally meet you. You are indeed an informal person as rumored."

"Excuse me, Danzo-sama."

Duan casually crossed his legs and asked straight to the point, "You didn't come to us just to drink tea at night, right?"

"Don't worry, young man."

As Danzo spoke, even though only his left arm could move, he still brewed tea skillfully, and he knew the tea ceremony at first glance.

soon.

A bowl of steaming, emerald-green matcha was pushed in front of Danzo with one hand by Danzo:

"please."

"I don't like tea," Duan said.

"If you don't drink it, how would you know you don't like it?" Danzo said calmly, a pun with a profound meaning.

Duan frowned, but picked up the tea bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

"puff!"

As soon as the tea entered his mouth, Dan felt an unusual bitterness, and he couldn't hold back the tea and immediately squirted it out, all over Danzo's face.

The next moment.

"Be bold!"

Several voices sounded at the same time, and several root ninjas sprang out from nowhere, placing various weapons such as ninja swords and kunai on the broken neck.

A small tea room can actually hide so many people.

"Everyone, stand down."

Danzo, however, did not remain angry and gave serious orders to a group of men. Then, he took out a handkerchief from his clothes and slowly wiped away the bitter tea stained on his face.

He asked Duan to drink tea as a test.

Danzo believed that Suan deliberately sprayed him in the face, which was just a childish provocation that only children would do.

The young man in front of me has a simple mind, well-developed limbs, and a very immature personality.

Such people are actually the best to control.

"I'm sorry." Duan apologized sincerely, because he really couldn't hold it back.

"It doesn't matter."

Danzo forgave Duan's offensive behavior and was neither angry nor angry, showing his unfathomable fortress and magnanimity as the Hokage's assistant.

He put it aside for now.

He brewed another bowl of bitter tea, pushed it towards Itachi, and said:

"Itachi, I told you that your life will be full of chaos. Drinking this cup of heart-clearing tea will relieve the anxiety and pain in your heart."

"Thank you, Danzo-sama."

Itachi was shocked in his heart. He sat down and bowed to Danzo. Then he picked up the tea bowl with both hands, brought it to his mouth and drank it all in one gulp.

Danzo was kind to him, and without his recommendation, he would not have been able to enter ANBU.

He also promised Danzo that he would become the latter's eyes and ears and monitor the Uchiha clan.

"Well……"
