The next day, morning.
"I'm leaving now."
After breakfast, Watergate said to the Naruto siblings after tidying up.
"Okay, goodbye daddy!" Qian You nodded obediently.
Watergate rubbed her soft hair and looked at Naruto.
The lack of confidence in Naruto's eyes yesterday had disappeared.
"Good luck."
With a chuckle, Watergate stretched out his other arm and punched Naruto.
Naruto was stunned for a moment. Then, he stretched out his arm and bumped fists with Watergate. He nodded his head vigorously.
Watergate smiled at them and disappeared in front of the Naruto siblings.
"Okay, time to start cultivating!"
Naruto's fist and palm collided with each other. He seemed to be full of energy.
As he spoke, Naruto walked to the courtyard and sat down cross-legged.
His hands suddenly started to form seals.
After encouraging Naruto yesterday, Watergate told him that Naruto's foundation in physical techniques was not weak. He was even stronger than Sasuke.
His only weakness was the control of Chakra.
However, this kind of cultivation was not something that could be improved with just anyone's guidance. The most important thing was to accumulate and have a certain amount of talent.
It's just that Naruto's talent isn't bad, but his practice of Chakra control is fundamentally different from others.
Therefore, even Watergate could not find a way to solve this problem for him.
"Phew …"
In the courtyard, Naruto slowly closed his eyes. He focused all his attention and sank into his body and mind.
"Phew … Phew …"
The boy's breathing gradually became even. The most basic and important thing to practice controlling Chakra was to have perfect control of one's body.
Whether it was movement, breathing, or heartbeat …
In front of the door, Qian You leaned against the wall. Looking at Naruto's back, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
...
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, nearly a year had passed.
In Naruto's office.
Watergate looked at the scroll in his hand with a solemn expression.
"As expected of one of the Sannin, the third generation Naruto's favorite disciple …"
He sighed. This scroll was sent by Jiraiya -sensei to Wood Leaf by the toad of Mount Myoboku. It recorded the information about Orochimaru's whereabouts.
Naruto was already five years old.
The masked man's attack on Wood Leaf, Orochimaru's defection, and Jiraiya -sensei's departure from the village all happened during that time.
For the past five years, Jiraiya -sensei has been tracking Orochimaru's whereabouts, but he has never seen him.
But through the information collected over the years, coupled with what Orochimaru did in the village at that time.
This guy seemed to be conducting some kind of human experiment with an unknown purpose.
Jiraiya -sensei also found several experimental bases one after another over the years.
"Sensei is an expert in this field, but even he can't catch his specific whereabouts."
Watergate said and handed the scroll in his hand to the black-clothed man in front of him, naturally, it was Uchiha Yan.
Uchiha Yan, as the captain of the Anbu, of course, also paid close attention to these things.
He read the information sent by Jiraiya and showed the same expression as Watergate.
"The masked man, the black-clothed man, and Sasori seemed to have evaporated in the world over the years, there is not much valuable information to be found."
Over the years, the Anbu has never given up on tracking the masked man's group.
It's just that those people are all S-class wanted criminals, and it's easier said than done to find them.
Wood Leaf has collected some information about Kakuzu over the years.
That guy has been hunting ninjas on the black market's bounty list, and from time to time, he would appear in the black market's exchange office, exchanging corpses for money.
Wood Leaf's ninjas have also tried to encircle him several times, but every time, they failed.
After all, Kakuzu was a ninja of the same era as Naruto, and with his rich experience, with his strength, how could he be easily caught?
"Don't worry, one day, they will appear in front of us by themselves …"
Watergate nodded, it's useless to be anxious at this time.
He concluded that the masked man will make a move again one day, but at that time, the object he wants to conquer will be Wood Leaf, or … the whole ninja world.
In addition to being afraid of the masked man's special ability, what makes Watergate even more difficult to figure out is the identity of the masked man and the black-clothed man.
Even today, he has checked all the files and information he can read, but there is no information about them.
The masked man has the Sharingan, but even in the records of the Uchiha Clan, there is no record of this person.
It's as if he appeared out of thin air, leaving no trace or information in this world.
The two no longer entangled in this matter, Uchiha Yan pondered for a moment and asked Watergate, "What about the thing I told you last time?"
Watergate heard this and immediately took out a file from the drawer of the table in front of him.
In the name column of the file was [Uchiha Itachi].
It recorded all the information of Itachi from his birth to the present.
"With this child's quality, he is indeed qualified to enter the Anbu."
Watergate nodded, now Itachi is only ten years old, but he is already a very good ninja.
"What's more, when Waterstop entered the Anbu, he was not much older than him, so I think there should be no problem."
He smiled, Itachi can be regarded as a child that Watergate watched him grow up, if he can become an Anbu directly under his own jurisdiction, of course, it would be better.
And Itachi is mature, he has calmness far beyond his age.
"Well, they are all good seedlings."
Uchiha Yan nodded, and when he mentioned Waterstop, his expression showed a kind of relief.
Waterstop was brought into the Anbu by him, and at this time, his strength and reputation in the Anbu is second only to him, the captain.
Seeing him grow so much in just a few years, the joy in his heart is indescribable.
"Oh, you really changed a lot …"
Seeing the kind of expression in his eyes, like a father seeing his child's achievements, Watergate couldn't help but smile.
"Speaking of which, you are not young anymore, it's time to start a family …"
Over the years, Watergate has mentioned this to Uchiha Yan more than once.
The two were born in the same year, and his child is about to enter the Ninja School, but Uchiha Yan is still alone.
"This doesn't seem to be within the scope of work."
Uchiha Yan's face immediately became serious, he lowered his eyes and looked at the scroll that Watergate just gave him.
"It's just out of concern as a friend, it's not work," Watergate said.
Uchiha Yan raised his eyes and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go first."
"Uh …"
Watergate nodded helplessly.
Uchiha Yan immediately turned and left Naruto's office.
