25 The Spar with Itachi

" I am Itachi Uchiha " Itachi said in a low voice , as he was taken by surprise . As he was greeted by someone who he hadn't met before. Suddenly Itachi realised the name Aryan said. 

" You are the son of the fourth hokage. " Itachi said in shock. 

" That I am , but no need to be formal with me as I am smaller in age that you and we are gonna be classmates form now on, so let's get along , Itachi" 

Aryan said with a bright smile on his face and forwarding his hand for a hand shake. 

Itachi shook his hand . 

" Let's get along. " Itachi said as he was pleased to talk to someone around his age. 

" So you wanna go to the class together, Itachi, " Aryan said as he started walking. 

" Ok " Itachi said as he started walking behind Aryan. 

It's been a few months since the academy started, and without any surprise Itachi and Aryan always came out on the top of the class, whether it be a shuriken practice or studies. they were always number one or two. 

" How the heck did I score less than a 5 years old child, it kinda hurts my pride as a 18 years old boy to get less score than a 5 year old child, well it's Itachi so I will let it pass " Aryan thought as his test report card was in his hand . 

After the written test there  was only a sparring test left. While going to the sparring test Together both Aryan and Itachi had a conversation. 

" I still can't believe it ,  you beat me at the practical test and shuriken test, but I won't loss when it comes to sparing, Itachi " Aryan said with a bright smile on his face. 

" You can try, Aryan, '' Itachi said as chuckled quietly with a hand in front of his face. 

" Kyaaaaaa!!!! Itachi kun and Aryan kun are walking together. ahhhhh look at that, look at that Itachi kun , smiled. He looks so cute when he smiles " A bunch of girls said while grouping in the hallway. 

After all the students gathered in the sparing area the matches started to take place. 

After 4 matches the teacher announced . 

" Next match between Aryan Namikaze VS Itachi Uchiha, both of the participants get ready " After hearing this both Aryan and Itachi got excited when they heard that they are going to fight each other. They had become really good friends in the time of the academy together , but they never trained together nor spared together so this was the first time they would see each other fight. 

" Both of you get in position, ready and fight!" The teacher waved his hand to start the fight. 

Both Aryan and Itachi smiled at each other and ran towards each other to start the spar. 

In the fight Aryan chose to attack first. As he was running towards Itachi he jumped to land a kick at Itachi's face, but Itachi grabbed Aryan's leg and used the momentum to throw him across, as Aryan fell in the land. " puff" was a substitution jutsu. Everyone was surprised, even the teacher, as he didn't know that Aryan could perform jutsu. 

Aryan didn't give Itachi any time to think properly. He went behind him and went for a punch Itachi, but Itachi blocked the punch just in time, Itachi this time went for a counter attack and went for a puch himself, but Aryan was successfully able to block it. Right after that Aryan went for a kick towards Itachi's stomach being this close and kick come from a point blank range, it would had been very difficult to dough, as Itachi thought that it would be easy to block it, as the kick was powerful , it had an impact on Itachi he was pushed back and took a hit. 

" This is not working, I need to make a clear opening to win this. If only I could use subayai ( the other kekkei genkai , with instant jutsu one) this would have been over by now. I need to make a bigger opening to do that" As Aryan thought, Itachi came after this as he knew that giving Aryan time to think and perform any more jutsu would now be good for him. After trading some blows with each other, Aryan successfully thought of a plan to use his jutsu. As he thought that Itachi landed a kick on Aryan which sended him a few feets away from Itachi. At first glance it looked like Aryan  took a major blow , but as Aryan did a jutsu  sign and said " Wind style :- gale palm " He faced his palm towards the ground and created a smoke screen which blocked everyone's vision . 

" Shadow clone jutsu , pufffffff " Out of the blue three clones jumped at Itachi and he was taken by surprise . When the smoke cleared there was a clear winner. Aryan had won the match . 

" I didn't think you would be able to use wind style and use 3 shadow clones  , it was my total defeat. " Itachi said as he walked up to Aryan for the Union sign. 

" Told you that I would win when it comes to sparing, " Aryan said as he moved his hand forward to make the union sign. 

( yaaaa guys just imagine stupid random girls shouting in the background, I tried to write it but it was too cringe to write again) 

" Ahhhhhh!! , it would have been good if Itachi kun could have won " Izumi said with a huge sigh . 

" I could have won the match if I didn't hold back, I see that it doesn't happen next time " Itachi thought as was returning to his position. 

After the sparring match the results were released of every individual. 

" Itachi, that's my boy, you got first in everything leaving sparring, well done, but can you tell who you lost in the sparring match? '' Fugaku asked Itachi. 

" He was Aryan Namikaze, " Itachi said in a lower voice. 

" Aryan Namikaze? You mean the adopted son of The Fourth Hokage ." Fugaku asked as he was surprised. 

" Yes, he is, " Itachi said in the same tone as before. 

" Aryan? You mean your friend? Mikoto asked Itachi. 

" Yes, he is my friend. " Itachi said. 

" He is your friend, don't tell me you went easy on him because he is your friend? " Fugaku asked Itachi. 

" No dad! I didn't go easy on him. He just took me by surprise, with his wind style and shadow clones " Itachi explained it to Fugaku and Mikoto. 

" What?He can use Wind style and Shadow clones at his age " Fugaku said as he was extremely surprised. 

" It looks like the son of The  Hokage is a prodigy and a good one at that, " Fugaku said. 

" Well you must learn from this Itachi , you must never let your enemy take you by surprise, it can be a matter of life and death in the world of shinobi. " Fugaku said to Itachi. 

" Yes father, I will remember, " Fugaku said. 

As things were lively in the Uchiha household, things were going pretty good in the Namikaze household too. Kushina was happy with Aryan's results and was cleaning Aryan's room. At the same time Minato and Aryan were outside buying things for the dinner party tonight. 

" What is this book? I have never seen this book in Aryan's Study table. " As Kushina opened the book she was extremely surprised because what she saw was...
