As the saying goes, don't slap a smiling face. While Chen sighed at their attitude, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I am here to look for someone. May I ask if your Patriarch Uchiha Kagami is here? "
"Our Patriarch?" The two of them looked at each other with a puzzled look on their faces, they then turned to Uchiha Chen and asked, "Do you have an appointment?"
Although the relationship between the Uchiha and the villagers has become much gentler, not everyone can see the Patriarch whenever they want.
In any case, Chen is still the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, and even if it's the other clans of Konoha, not everyone can see the Patriarch.
Although the Uchiha Clan is now open to the outside world, they still need to prevent people from causing trouble, so the two were more cautious. Although they don't believe that someone would dare to cause trouble in the Uchiha Clan, they can't relax their vigilance, so they whispered to Chen.
Chen smiled and didn't care about their cautious gazes. Instead, he took out a letter written by Tobirama from his sleeve and handed it to them, "This is a letter written by Tobirama Senju."
"A letter from Nidaime Hokage-sama?" One of them took the letter suspiciously, glanced at it, and then whispered to his teammate, "It is indeed a letter from Hokage-Sama, there is a seal on it."
"Then …" His teammate hesitated for a moment.
"I'm sorry, our Patriarch is still on the battlefield and hasn't returned yet. Please allow me to give this letter to the Patriarch. You can leave your contact information, and if our Patriarch returns, we will inform you." He thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Then … Alright." Chen nodded and didn't say anything more, turned around and left. Apart from those few people, there is no one in the Uchiha Clan that he cares about, and even if he goes in now, he doesn't have a good reason to approach them. It's better to wait for Uchiha Kagami to come.
Just as Chen was about to leave, a child of about three or four years old suddenly came out of the alley.
"This is …" Chen's pupils shrank, "Uchiha … Itachi?"
"Why did he …" Suddenly, Chen realized: "Yes, Itachi is six years older than me and Sasuke. World War III didn't last long. According to the current timeline, World War III should be over in a few years. Sasuke and I were born one year after the end of World War III."
"But why is he here?" Chen frowned, "Isn't it time for school? Why did Itachi suddenly come home? "
Shen remembered his mother saying that because of the war and Itachi's extraordinary talent, Uchiha Itachi entered the Ninja Academy when he was three or four years old. Because of his outstanding performance, he graduated from the Ninja Academy when he was seven years old. It could be said that this caused quite a stir at that time.
While Chen was lost in his thoughts, Itachi had already arrived at the entrance.
"Master Itachi, why are you back so early today?" The two guards at the entrance opened the door for him and asked with a smile.
Uchiha Fugaku's father, Itachi's grandfather, was an elder of the Uchiha Clan. He was also very prestigious in the clan, so as the grandson of an elder, Itachi also had some privileges in the clan.
"The sensei had a group meeting this morning, so he asked us to go home and prepare. We will go to school in the afternoon," Itachi said flatly.
He looked at Chen curiously, not understanding why this person in front of him came to their clan. Although the relationship between the Uchiha and the villagers is now calm, there is still a lingering influence. If it is not necessary, not many people are willing to come to the Uchiha Clan.
Seeing Itachi's gaze on Chen, the guard couldn't help but smile, "This gentleman was introduced by Nidaime-sama to the Patriarch. At present, the Patriarch is still on the battlefield, so …"
Hearing this, Itachi's eyes flashed. As the son of Uchiha Fugaku, although he was young, his status in the clan was very high, so he knew some information that ordinary people didn't know.
"Guest? Is he … the orphan of the Uchiha Clan? "Itachi couldn't help but think secretly.
"Since he is a guest, why don't you invite him in?" Itachi couldn't help but ask.
"This …" The two were a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain. After all, Chen only said that he came to look for the Patriarch. At present, Uchiha Kagami wasn't in the clan. With their status, they weren't qualified to know some things, so they didn't know that the Patriarch was on his way back.
"How about this, mister? If you don't mind, please come to our clan and sit for a while. The patriarch is on his way back and should be able to make it back this morning. If mister doesn't mind, please come in and have a cup of tea."
Itachi didn't mention Chen's identity. Although he was young, he wasn't a political fool. Chen's information was a confidential matter in the entire Konoha. If he wasn't the son of Uchiha Fugaku, who was the next Patriarch, he wouldn't be qualified to know this information. Even this piece of news was something he had heard from the elders of the clan when he was at the door.
Shen looked at Uchiha Itachi in surprise. He didn't understand what his older brother in the original world was thinking, but he wasn't afraid. Instead, he nodded and said, "If that's the case, thank you."
Itachi said flatly, "You're welcome." His little face was full of seriousness, and he tried hard to put on a serious look, but in Chen's eyes, it was clear that he was a little kid pretending to be an adult.
This strong sense of contrast made him almost laugh out loud. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. After all, this was one of the few dark histories of his brother. If he knew that there would be such a drama, he would have brought a camera and recorded it.
Seeing that Itachi had already lifted his leg and walked towards the door, Akira sighed in his heart, 'What a pity!' and followed behind him.
Walking in the Uchiha Clan, Chen couldn't help but sigh. This was once a familiar layout. It turned out that when the Uchiha Clan was driven to the edge of the village, they still built houses according to the original layout in the center of the village. Walking on this road, although it was an unfamiliar environment, Chen knew the layout of the surroundings like the back of his hand. After all, this was a place where he lived for more than ten years. How could he forget it so easily?
"I really miss it!" Chen couldn't help but sigh softly.
"What are you talking about?" Itachi didn't hear clearly and asked subconsciously.
