Chapter 755 Someone's Ambition

"Father, I went out to practice."

Putting down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, Uchiha Itachi bowed respectfully.

"...Itachi, have you encountered anything happy recently?"

After staring thoughtfully at the figure in front of him for a moment, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly asked.

As the saying goes, there is no better son than a father. Although due to his status as the leader of the Uchiha clan and the complex situation in the village today, he has little energy to spend time on his own small family, Uchiha Itachi has been He could still see the changes that had occurred over time.

The most obvious change is that when the other party went out to practice in the past few days, his steps became much lighter.

“…”

Stopping, Uchiha Itachi was stunned for a moment.

When his father asked this question, almost subconsciously, a petite figure emerged in his mind.

Under the noon sun, the girl sitting in the shadow of the mottled trees said words that would change the entire ninja world in a relaxed tone. The sun at that time seemed too dazzling, so dazzling that he could not even see the expression on the girl's face clearly. .

After returning that day, he made a special effort to check on the girl.

After the Nine-Tails Riot a year ago, only the other person was left in the other party's home. He had always wondered why the other party only had so many hard rice balls at lunch, and he finally had an answer. .

But even though he was alone, even in this difficult situation, he did not see any complaints or resentment in the other person, but instead some kind of positivity and sunshine that could not be expressed in words.

He didn't understand why the other party had that kind of mentality, but when he was infected by the other party's emotions, he would always unconsciously want to get closer to the other party.

"If you don't want to say it, then it's up to you."

As if seeing his hesitation, Uchiha Fugaku waved his hand, and then lowered his head again.

"But you have to remember that you are the eldest son of the leader of the Uchiha clan. You carry the name of Uchiha. Your competitors will never be those of your peers. Soon, you will be enrolling in the ninja school. When signing up, I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer by then.”

"...I understand, father."

After a brief silence, Uchiha Itachi nodded.

Without any further delay, Uchiha Itachi left his home after taking his ninja bag and related items.

Although he is a genius, there will always be someone in this world who is more talented than you, and what is even more terrifying is that the other person is not only more talented than you, but he even works harder than you...

After arriving at the old place, looking at the girl who was already sweating on the training ground, Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but have a look of helplessness on his face.

He tried his best to hurry up, but every time the other party got there first.

He had no intention of disturbing the other party. After finding a place to put down his things, Uchiha Itachi silently began his daily training today.

Although Mu Qingzhi said she noticed Uchiha Itachi's arrival, she did not pay too much attention and continued her training.

Her current training is mainly based on laying the foundation, trying to improve the shortcomings in physical fitness as much as possible, and at the same time occasionally taking into account the practice of the Three Body Technique. This is all her daily training.

As for ninjutsu, there is no need to practice too much.

The only ninjutsu she knows now is the C-level Fire Release Technique. This ninjutsu is not too difficult for her. The only difference now is the amount of chakra. After practicing it several times After that, she lost interest.

Compared to this, she is now more interested in ninjutsu similar to shadow clones or flying thunder gods...especially shadow clones.

"You are still young, there is no need to work so hard."

Looking at the girl lying on the lawn in front of him, after a little hesitation, Uchiha Itachi finally spoke.

Only after close contact can we understand how crazy the girl's training is. She doesn't take her body seriously at all, and will shock anyone who sees it.

...Then he saw the girl roll her eyes at him.

Uchiha Itachi: "..."

In fact, it wasn't that Mu Qingzhi wanted to do this, it was mainly because now that her physical strength, energy and chakra had been completely exhausted, she didn't even have the strength to speak, so she could only express her thoughts by rolling her eyes.

Compared with the initial period when he had to lie on the ground for at least two hours to regain his mobility, after half a month of special training, it only took Mu Qingzhi about half an hour to regain his mobility. He sat up from the ground, and the progress could be said to be very significant.

After taking a few big sips of the water that Uchiha Itachi put next to him, he turned around and looked at Uchiha Itachi who was a bit autistic and practicing shuriken throwing techniques alone. Mu Qingzhi couldn't help but feel a little agitated. funny.

No matter how precocious he is, after all, the other person is still a child under six years old now. She did not expect that Uchiha Itachi would have such a character when he was a child.

"It's not that I want to work hard, it's mainly because my foundation is weak. If you want to make up for your shortcomings in the shortest time, this method is the fastest."

When the other party's eyes turned towards her, Mu Qingzhi put down the water glass in her hand and explained something in her mouth.

"Also, it's not that I didn't speak just now, it's mainly because I didn't have the energy to speak at that time."

"The shortest time... do you want to enroll in the ninja school?"

After a moment of daze, Uchiha Itachi quickly reacted.

"But you are not old enough now, right? The admission time standard for the ninja school is six years old, and besides, with your current strength, I think it is enough..."

"No, the ninja school is just a short-term goal."

Raising a finger in front of him, Mu Qingzhi looked serious.

"If you want to change the world in a real sense, becoming a Genin, Chunin or Jonin is useless. Only becoming a Hokage can be regarded as the first step to achieve the goal in a real sense."

"Hokage... is just the first step?"

Turning his head to look at the girl in front of him, Uchiha Itachi was completely stunned there.

——After these few days of getting along, he has barely kept up with the girl's jumping thinking.

"Well... the second step."

After thinking about it for a while, Mu Qingzhi nodded.

"The first step should be to become the head of the Uchiha clan. Only in this way can I be qualified to run for the position of Hokage."

Looking up at Uchiha Itachi in front of him, Mu Qingzhi was full of interest.

"How about it, what do you think of my plan?"

Uchiha Itachi: "………"
