The blind swordsman of Uchiha

"Itachi, did you know? The only thing that can burn leaves is fire!"

Uchiha Itachi, who was only five years old, did not fully understand the meaning of this sentence.

He just looked at his best friend, Uchiha Chiba, who is also a Uchiha clan, with some doubts.

However, from the words [Leaves] and [Fire], Itachi probably guessed what Uchiha Chiba wanted to express.

"Chiba-san, you mean to say [Where the leaves fly, the fire is endless. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and let the new leaves sprout]?"

This sentence is Konoha's classic inheritance discourse.

From First Hokage, it has been passed down to Third Hokage.

The starting point of this sentence is good, but time will eventually change its meaning.

No, it shouldn't be time, but desire, greed, and even more, the human heart!

Hearing these words at the moment, Uchiha Chiba smiled.

"Itachi, do you really think that the fire will illuminate the village? No… the fire will only become more and more prosperous, and the village will be burned away!"

? ? ?

Uchiha Itachi had a black question mark on his face.

Can this sentence be interpreted like this?

Itachi didn't understand Chiba's meaning, he just stared blankly at this close friend who was the same age as him.

He was holding a cane in both hands, and his black hair was hanging down slightly. However, between the hair, the representative eye belonging to Uchiha was robbed of its brilliance by a piece of black cloth.

His name is Uchiha Chiba, but he is blind.

It's just that Chiba stands in front of Uchiha Itachi, and that kind of oppression is not something a blind person should have.

That kind of oppression has been accumulated over the years.

It has been almost a year since the two had met each other to become close friends.

During this period, the two learned from each other, learning and progressing together, but even if they were to learn from each other, Uchiha Itachi had never beaten the blind Chiba, not even once.

Don't be fooled by Chiba's identity as a blind man.

The crutch in his hand is not just for exploring the way.

The sword hidden in the crutch, every sword, is terribly heavy.

——Although I am blind, I am a swordsman.

This is a saying that Chiba often talks about.

One person, one sword, is enough to travel all over the world, how cliche this is.

This is why the precocious Uchiha Itachi regards Chiba as a close friend.

Some strange words will always come out of his mouth, but they are thought-provoking.

He likes to communicate with Chiba.

Just like today, like this time.

"I don't quite understand what Chiba-san means."

Itachi tilted his head, a little puzzled.

"If you don't understand… it's right, but I hope you can remember this sentence, maybe it's going to be enrolled tomorrow, I'm a bit too talkative, you will know it naturally when the time is up."

It's not that I don't know, but the time has not come.

Enrollment means that you are about to receive Konoha's education from the ninja academy.

Uchiha Itachi's worldview is about to receive a new baptism from Konoha.

As a family of Uchiha, Chiba is also a close friend of Itachi. Naturally, he doesn't want to watch Itachi follow the old path of the original.

That is a road of no return to destroy a clan for a village.

Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi thoughtfully.

Leaves, fire, Konoha, Uchiha.

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi seemed to catch something and looked up at Chiba.

Chiba-san, are you suggesting something?

The village… and Uchiha?

Uchiha Itachi was surprised, but not surprised.

Because he knows Chiba.

Although his eyes cannot see, he can see many things more clearly than anyone.

Just when Uchiha Itachi thought about it.

With a snap.

Itachi's forehead was bounced.

That came from Chiba's right hand.

"Don't think about it, Itachi, sometimes you just think too much, now, there is no need for this!"

Now···

Uchiha Itachi touched his forehead.

He is very good at grasping the key. Now, there is no need for this, what about in the future?

"In this age of war, the only thing you can think about is how to survive, and to recognize where the real enemy is."

"And, are you really going to enroll in early? Some time ago, your father should have shown you the battlefield, right?"

"Enrolling early means that you may go to the battlefield early."

In the original book, Itachi should have enrolled at the age of six. By the time he graduated, the three wars had almost ended. Now, it seems that it was because of his own sake that Itachi made the decision to enroll in advance.

Now, it is during the third Ninja War.

The country of fire, the country of thunder, the country of the earth, and the country of water are inextricably fought.

You can think so–

All outside the village are enemies!

However, the word "real" by Chiba is very intriguing.

Itachi looked at Chiba thoughtfully.

Chiba-san, seems to want to tell me something?

Chiba really wants to tell Itachi something, no, it should be Chiba wants to influence the young Uchiha Itachi through himself.

In the original work, Itachi chose Konoha between Konoha and Uchiha, which is definitely not an easy choice.

Chiba can imagine how painful it was when Uchiha, known as the [Love Clan], swung a butcher knife to his own people.

Therefore, the more important a decision is, the more determined it is once a choice is made.

That can't be reversed by relying on the so-called language.

When Chiba came to the Uchiha clan as a traverser.

His fate is destined to be linked to Uchiha, which is an absolutely unchangeable fact.

The Konoha high-rise is incompatible with Uchiha.

It may not be that step now, but that moment will come sooner or later.

As a fan of the original anime, Chiba can sympathize with Itachi's experience.

But as a member of the Uchiha clan.

To Chiba, Uchiha Itachi is like a demon.

Preventing this from happening is the top priority.

To prevent the Uchiha Itachi genocide in the original book, you must start from the root cause.

Uchiha's enemy has never been an exterminating Itachi.

It's the corrupt Konoha high-level.

"It's too early, Itachi, that's all for today's discussion!"

"See you at the entrance ceremony tomorrow!"

"and also···"

I don't know if it was intentional, Chiba paused.

Looking forward to Chiba's next words, the young man with the law pattern quietly looked at his only best friend.

"If you have anything, you can tell me, as a friend, at least…I will listen carefully."

After speaking.

Chiba walked away with a cane while exploring the way.

Uchiha Itachi looked at Chiba's back blankly, thoughtfully.

As a friend?
