RNP Chapter 91 Blonde Idiot
Chapter 91 Blonde Idiot
Boruto hesitated when faced with Sasuke's question. After all, Itachi Uchiha was the culprit who destroyed the Uchiha clan. If Sasuke knew that Itachi Uchiha was in the village, it would inevitably trigger an overreaction.
Just as Boruto was about to find a suitable excuse to cover things up, Sasuke suddenly said, "I hope you won't hide it from me."
Boruto could only sigh and say, "Itachi Uchiha appeared in Konoha."
When Sasuke heard Boruto mention Itachi Uchiha's name, his face instantly darkened, and his eyes were filled with anger.
"Uchiha... Itachi!" Sasuke's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth, every word filled with hatred for the name Uchiha Itachi.
His fists were clenched so tightly that he could almost hear his knuckles cracking, and his nails dug deep into his palms, leaving bloody marks.
Sasuke gripped Boruto's shoulders tightly and said in a deep voice, "That guy actually came back to this village! What's going on? Did he come looking for me?!"
Boruto's gaze swept past the direction of Konoha's gate, then turned to Sasuke, gesturing for him to continue the conversation as they walked.
On the way, Boruto told Sasuke about Itachi Uchiha injuring Kakashi-sensei.
Sasuke gritted his teeth, never expecting that man to actually appear in Konoha! And he even had his eye on Naruto.
Sasuke's face tightened as he said, "If that guy catches Naruto, he's dead for sure. We absolutely can't let him succeed! Do you know where Naruto is right now?"
Boruto thought for a moment, then said, "Naruto and the others only set off this morning. Judging by the time, they should be almost at the vicinity of Shukuba Town by now."
Sasuke muttered to himself, "If we're going to the post town, it's not far from here."
At this moment, on a high mountain not far from Konoha, Itachi Uchiha and Kisame's gazes fell on the backs of Jiraiya and Naruto, who were walking along the rugged mountain path.
Kisame looked at Jiraiya in the distance and said slowly, "He may be an opponent you can find a way to defeat, but I may not be so sure. After all, we are not on the same level."
Itachi Uchiha: "If we fight him, we will all be killed. The best outcome would be mutual destruction. Even if we increase our numbers, the result won't change."
Kisame: "I never expected that the person protecting the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki would be the legendary Sannin. If the opponent is him, both the current Uchiha clan of Konoha and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist will become nameless."
Uchiha Itachi slowly said, "Yes, but... even the strongest person has weaknesses."
......
Boruto and Sasuke arrived at Shukuba Town, where various inns and taverns lined both sides of the street.
With so many places to stay, finding Naruto and Jiraiya wouldn't be easy. To improve efficiency, they decided to split up and search one place at a time, hoping to find their targets in the shortest possible time.
Sasuke entered an inn, glanced around the interior, and then asked the innkeeper directly, "Excuse me, have you seen a blond idiot and a white-haired uncle here, both around my age?"
Sasuke thought that with Naruto's obvious features, finding him should be easy.
Sure enough, the shop owner crossed his arms and nodded, saying, "Yes, although I didn't see the white-haired uncle, I did see a blond man who was about your age."
Sasuke's heart tightened upon hearing the shopkeeper's words, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is he now?"
The shopkeeper pointed behind Sasuke, indicating, "He's in that inn across the street. Look, he's walking towards us now."
After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Sasuke quickly turned around and looked in the direction the shopkeeper was pointing. He saw that Boruto had just finished asking about an inn and was walking towards them.
With a disappointed expression, Boruto, having found nothing, asked Sasuke, "Sasuke, how did things go on your end? Did you find anything?"
The shopkeeper looked at Boruto and Sasuke and said with a smug tone, "See? Aren't they just like you described, blond idiots about your age?"
Upon hearing the shopkeeper's words, Boruto pointed at himself incredulously and said in confusion, "...Me? Blonde idiot?" He then turned to Sasuke beside him, wanting an explanation.
......
At this point, Jiraiya left Naruto alone in the inn room, citing the reason that "the adult world is about to begin."
Naruto lay listlessly on his bed, complaining, "That perverted sage is always like this! Does he even want to guide my training?"
Naruto was sitting in his room when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He sat up from the bed and said jokingly, "What? You got dumped so quickly, so you're back now?"
When Naruto opened the door, the smile on his face froze instantly. Standing outside was not Jiraiya, but a strange man with the same Sharingan as Sasuke.
Kisame Hoshigaki stepped out from behind Itachi Uchiha, a look of surprise on his face, and said, "I didn't expect that this brat could seal that Nine-Tails."
Naruto stood at the door, cold sweat involuntarily pouring from his forehead. How could these guys know the secret of the Nine-Tails inside him?
Itachi Uchiha said calmly, "Naruto, please come with us."
Kisame Hoshigaki sneered, staring sharply at Naruto, and said cruelly, "If this guy gets away, things will get very complicated. We might as well cut off one of his legs first..." He clearly did not intend to give Naruto any chance to escape.
Boruto and Sasuke arrived at the inn where Naruto was at that time, and they immediately saw Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki standing in front of Naruto.
"Water Release: Waves!"
Without hesitation, Boruto immediately activated his ninjutsu, unleashing a powerful water-style ninjutsu that hurtled towards the two, attempting to force them back.
Kisame Hoshigaki sneered at Boruto's Water Release chakra. He quickly raised Samehada in his hand and used it to absorb the Water Release chakra.
Kisame smirked and said, "It's you again? You really are a persistent ghost. But it's no use. My Samehada can devour your chakra."
Uchiha Itachi stood there without turning his head and calmly said, "It's been a long time... Sasuke."
Sasuke's body trembled slightly upon hearing Itachi's voice, and he glared at Itachi with a ferocious expression: "Itachi Uchiha!"
