Bloody Hood Slaughter

Chapter 4:

I went back to my house and as expected, I found several dead bodies on the way, since I was already late, I figured that Sasuke had already gone home and had interacted with Itachi. The bodies had their eyes gouged out, probably thanks to Obito and Danzo's work.

I looked at the sky and sighed in relief. The risk I took was enough for me to stop for a second and take a deep breath. Itachi didn't kill me, I'm the same age as Sasuke and we both went to the Ninja Academy at the same time. Unless he made time and went out of his way to kill me, he wouldn't really have the chance to. Well, he could, but I showed potential the other day with my answers, judging by the way he looked at me, I would say he likes me.

Even though there are plenty of children in the Uchiha clan who are close in age to Sasuke, he spared only me. Well, I had a backup plan anyway. In case he's waiting for me to come back home, I'm going to hide, where am I going to hide, well, in plain sight. I didn't go to my house, since it's too obvious, so instead I went to the Police Station and locked myself in one of the cells and waited.

….

I waited for the morning to come by again. Before I could go outside, some ninjas in Anbu masks appeared before me.

"What are you doing here kid?" asked one of the two anbus.

"Well, in case you haven't heard, my entire clan was slaughtered by none other than Itachi, so I hid here." I answered with a flat tone.

The two anbu's looked at each other and then turned their heads towards me, "You're safe now, you can come with us."

"Where to?"

"The third Hokage."

I nodded and followed them.

We entered the Hokage tower and then at the door of the Hokage office, they stopped.

I didn't mind them and knocked on the door.

"Enter." The voice of an old man came from inside.

I opened the door and saw the homage puffing on his puff puff.

"What can I do for you, Lord Hokage?" I bowed slightly and asked as I looked at him.

"The question is what can I do for you, Enyo? It must be tough, losing your mother and then your entire clan." He had saddened eyes.

"I already wasted all my tears on the death of my mother. I didn't know any of them anyway, but I'm also sad I can't find a family to grow close to anymore." I said with a wry smile, while looking down.

"Don't say such things, Enyo-kun. You have the whole village as your family and you can come to me whenever you need someone to talk to." The Hokage said.

"Thank you, Lord Hokage." I once again looked at him.

"Anyways. Since the clan is dead, a lot of property on their hands has gone to Sasuke's hands. But since he can't manage all of it, he said that he'll give you 1/4 of it. However, only when you turn old enough, can I give you the legal claim to it, or you can just sell it from now and get rid of it from your hands."

'They already knew I'm alive!' I thought, meaning that something I don't know goes around. I was also unprepared for Sasuke's actions, but I made up my mind quickly.

The turmoil in my head was unapparent in my face as kept the conversation going.

"No, I'll keep it. I will also assume that the belonging doesn't mean just houses, but also weapons, scrolls, and clothes, right?" I asked.

"That is correct." He replied.

"Okay then. Thank you, Lord Hokage. Is there anything you need me for?"

"Not really, but Sasuke might."

I nodded and then excused myself.

...

I went back home and laid on the bed.

I just got rich.

"Hahahahahahah!" I laughed uncontrollably like a maniac.

Not only rich, but I'll also get powerful due to such a thing. I'll be able to gain various jutsu and materials to practice with.

I calmed down and then assessed the situation.

That old man almost cheated me. Did he really think I was a naive kid who would sell the second I got the opportunity to? Hell no. He would have probably offered a price that an eight-year-old kid would have found unimaginable but was still little.

And with my acting skills, he couldn't really figure out anything from me, other than finding me very mature for my age. He also didn't think that my not caring about the Uchiha clan was weird, since I gave him a good reason why I didn't care, I just didn't know them..

Since I was in a sequence of ecstasy, I started taijutsu training.

Not caring about the chaos in the upper echelons of Konoha.

…

Two days later, as I was making my way towards the academy, I spotted Sasuke. He hasn't come to the Academy ever since for the past two days.

"Yo!" I yelled, his head turned, and looked at me.

'He has already changed so much' I thought as I looked at his eyes, hatred burning deep inside them.

He didn't speak and we just walked, until I looked at him, bored. "So how do you plan to kill him? Dagger to the throat. A slash to the heart, or burning him?"

He looked at me in surprise, "Why do you care about killing Itachi? It's not like you really care about the Uchiha enough to seek revenge, you only entered its circle one week ago."

"I'm just trying to open a conversation, since your head is filled with murderous thoughts, I decided to open up with that. Anyways, you need to set priorities. You're currently too weak to even scratch Itachi's pinky, so focus on training." I said.

"I know that. But one day, I'll kill him and revenge my clan, our clan." He clenched his fist.

"Our? Do you consider me family?" I asked in surprise.

He closed his eyes, "You have the blood of Uchiha in your veins. My mother would want to see us united to kill that scum. It's your choice if you want to join me, in any way, I'll still make sure I kill him."

I smirked, "Good then. Well, let's see where life takes us, little bro."

"Don't call me that. Sasuke is fine."

"Sure little bro."

We spent the way chatting about various things, mostly about training. Sasuke is probably going to need more time to be able to feel free in front of me.

Today, we have a Taijutsu class, so when we entered the academy, we immediately went to the academy grounds. Most of the kids were already there. A fence surrounded us, I saw Iruka there. The previous instructors were replaced by him. After a series of pranks by Naruto, the disagreement of the Nara and the shoutings of Kiba combined with all the others' personalities was fatal to any instructor.. So they quit.

"Alright everyone, gather around. I'll announce the fighters and you'll have a 1v1 spar. And don't forget the unison sign at the end of the bout.

Okay, first is Choji Akimichi and Shikamaru Nara."

"I don't want to hurt my friend sensei. Can I not fight?." Choji was sad.

"But you have to fight Choji, otherwise you'll never be a ninja."

Shikamaru sighed and yawned as he had his hands in his pockets and said, "I'll make it easier for you sensei, I give up."

"Wha-?" Iruka was speechless and sighed helplessly. "Okay, okay. Form the unison sign."

"Next, Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha!"

The next fight was announced!
