13 Uchiha 1/2
"This way, Kuro-kun." Mikoto told me, as we walked inside her huge house.
Soon, we went into the kitchen and I put the shopping bags in the same place she had left them.
Sasuke followed my lead and let out a little snort.
Mikoto smiled and spoke to us, "I'll be preparing food, why don't you two go play?"
"Do you need help, Mikoto-san?" I asked politely.
She waved her hand casually and replied, "Don't worry, Kuro-kun. My husband and Itachi are still outside and they will be late in coming, so I'm in no rush."
"Okay." I nodded and looked at Sasuke.
The Uchiha kept silent and left the kitchen.
"Have fun~" As I followed him outside, I heard Mikoto's voice.
"Hmph!" Sasuke snorted and walked faster.
.
Initially I thought we were going to stay at the house, however, Sasuke headed to the forest that is near the village limits.
"Was there a need to come here?" I asked while looking around.
"Mhm." Sasuke nodded and pointed to a tree. "I want you to teach me the Tree Climbing Technique."
I raised an eyebrow and replied, "Oh? I don't care, but what can you teach me in return?"
The Uchiha showed a smirk and spoke, "The Great Fireball Jutsu."
"I heard that was the specialty of the Uchiha, sure you can teach it to someone outside your clan?" I asked confused.
Although I am aware that other people could do it in the series, it was only limited to the Anime and Games.
Sasuke nodded, "Yes, it is my clan's specialty, but it is not considered a Secret Jutsu. My brother once commented that there were other Shinobi outside the clan who could use the Jutsu."
"Hm." I hummed for a moment before speaking, "And can you do the Jutsu?"
Sasuke blushed slightly, "Yes… but just a little."
"Oh? Then show me."
"Will you teach me the technique if I do it?" Sasuke looked at me suspiciously and asked.
I shrugged, "If you really teach me the Jutsu, I will teach you Tree Climbing."
"Okay, take a good look." Sasuke distances himself and stopped in front of a rock.
He began to form the corresponding hand seals. It was slow but clear enough.
Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger.
Once finished, he inhaled and circled his thumb and index finger around his mouth.
Then he exhaled and a small blast of fire formed, touched the rock lightly and stopped.
[New Skill [Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu] learned!]
"You must accumulate chakra in your body and then turn it into fire, to end up expelling it from your mouth. Do you understand or do you want me to do it again?" Before I could review the skill, Sasuke spoke.
I shook my head and walked towards the rock, "It's not necessary, I get it."
"Hmph! Let's see then" Sasuke said as he pulled away and crossed his arms.
I ignored it and checked the jutsu.
[Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu - Lvl: 1
Allows to eject a Fireball from the mouth.
Hand seals: 6
The cost of CP depends on the distance and size.
Chakra consumption increases due to the user not possessing the Fire Nature.]
I'll think about that later, I have to attack a rock now.
Quickly forming the hand seals, I took a deep breath and exhaled.
Even without the Nature of Fire and being the first time I do it, the size of the Jutsu was at least 80 cm. It crashed into the rock and left a burn mark.
I turned my head and saw Sasuke with his mouth open.
However, when he noticed my gaze he recovered and pointed his finger at me.
"It's not fair! You already knew that Jutsu!"
I shook my head at his accusation. "How was I supposed to know?"
"Argh! So how did you do that!?" Sasuke groaned in frustration and asked.
I shrugged.
Sasuke let out a long breath and spoke, "You know what? It doesn't matter. Now you must teach me that technique."
I nodded. "I know. It's pretty simple, first…"
.
It's been a while since Sasuke started trying the technique.
I gave him the method I used and although it took a while, he managed to stand on the tree trunk.
Now he's trying other things like walking higher, jumping to the ground and back into the tree, running, etc.
I am sitting on the highest branch of the tree, with my back against the trunk.
I looked down and saw Sasuke running up, when he got close enough, he jumped up and hit the branch, his head pointing to the ground.
He was breathing hard, but he was holding on.
The Uchiha jumped back and stood on top of the branch, looked at me and spoke, "Now what?"
"I think we should go back." I suggested while looking at the sky.
Sasuke followed my gaze and nodded, "Okay, let's go."
We jumped out of the tree and went back to his house.
.
"So, will I also be able to walk on water?" Sasuke asked as we entered his house.
I nodded, "Yes, although it is more difficult."
"Eh? Why?"
"Well, unlike the tree, the water has ripples and you have to match your chakra with them." I replied.
Sasuke nodded in understanding.
At that moment, we saw a smiling Mikoto come over here.
"You two, go wash your hands. We'll have dinner soon."
"Okay, Mom." Sasuke answered and started walking.
I followed him and soon we reached the bathroom, washed our hands and followed Sasuke into the dining room.
.
The first thing I saw when I entered the dining room was a table, with 1 chair at the ends and 2 on each side.
At the head of the table sat a strict-looking man with shoulder-length brown hair.
His arms were crossed and his eyes were closed, which opened when we entered the dining room.
"Father, good evening." Sasuke stood up straight and spoke.
Fugaku nodded and looked at me.
"I am Kuro Shizumatta. It is a pleasure to meet you, Fugaku-sama." With a little bow, I introduced myself.
Fugaku looked at me for a moment and nodded at me. "Come sit down both of you, it's time for dinner."
"Yes father." Sasuke answered and sat down at the table.
I nodded and sat down next to Sasuke, who was sitting to Fugaku's right.
There was already plenty of food on the table, from rice, fish, onigiri, and vegetables.
A moment later, Mikoto entered the dining room with a smile, bringing a tray of cinnamon rolls.
She placed it in the center of the table and turned to her husband. "Itachi still hasn't arrived?"
Fugaku shook his head and replied, "No, he wasn't at the barracks today either."
"I'm home!" Before Mikoto could say anything, a call came from the entrance.
She was surprised for a moment, but soon she smiled and left the dining room.
A few moments later, she returned along with Itachi.
"Father" Fugaku nodded.
Itachi then greeted Sasuke and turned to me, "Hm? Do we have a guest?"
"I am Kuro Shizumatta, it is my pleasure, Itachi-san."
"Oh? So you're Kuro, Sasuke has talked about you." Itachi said as he sat down across from Sasuke.
"Brother!" Sasuke said with slightly flushed cheeks.
Itachi only smiled slightly.
"So Sasuke. You were very happy when you came in from playing, did you do something fun?" Mikoto asked with a smile as she served the food.
Sasuke pouted little. "Mom, we weren't playing games, it was training. Kuro taught me the Tree Climbing Technique."
"Eh? It's amazing that you know that at your age, Kuro-kun." Mikoto was a bit surprised and looked at me.
"I learned it by chance and it's not that difficult. Sasuke learned it pretty quickly." The young Uchiha nodded at my comment.
"That's amazing, Sasuke." Itachi spoke with a smile.
Fugaku only nodded, but it was enough to make Sasuke's smile widen.
Mikoto smiled fondly at her youngest son as she finished serving and sat at the other end of the table to my right.
