Under the mask of Homusubi, Ho's lips curled a grin.
Defeating Itachi was not a difficult task for Ho, but Ho still felt a certain achievement that was difficult to understand, after all, the person that Ho defeated was Uchiha Itachi, who was the only one who was defeated by Ho, The same Uchiha Itachi who is undefeated throughout the Naruto series. .
While Ho feels a certain achievement that boosts Ho's ego, certain changes occur that suddenly shock Ho, and Ho's smile freezes in the middle of the road, “This.?”.
Caw.. Caw.. Caw.. Caw.. Caw... Caw... Caw... Caw... Caw.... Caw... Caw... Caw.... Caw... Caw... Caw…
Almost at the same time Ho noticed, Itachi who was pinned to the tree trunk by Ho broke into many crows and scattered throughout the battlefield.
"The Crow Clone Technique!?" - exclaimed Ho.
And as soon as countless crows scattered across the battlefield, Ho noticed from his point of view that so many metal wires suddenly appeared all over the battlefield.
Seeing Kunai and Shuriken being fired at him, Ho understood that he had fallen into a trap set by Itachi.
With just one glance, Ho can judge that retreat is not an option now.
Looking at Shuriken and Kunai who were about to stab him, Ho smiled bitterly and inevitably thought, 'Huh, why am I not surprised by this development? And is this what they call instant Karma?’
This is Ho's last thought as rain shuriken and Kunai stabbing Ho. It severed his left arm and also some wounds all over his body.
As Shuriken and Kunai approached Ho-san, Itachi who was hiding somewhere else could not help the sweat flowing down his temple with hope and nervousness.
But seeing Shuriken and Kunai actually stabbing Ho, Itachi was shocked.
Ho has a Mangekyou Sharingan, so blocking this Shuriken and Kunai rain should not be a problem for Ho.
Itachi did not expect that Ho not only did not use Susanoo to block, but Ho also did not even try to dodge, and Itachi instantly knew that something was wrong.
His conjecture was only confirmed when the bodies pierced by the many shuriken and Kunai, including the left hand lying on the ground broke into countless Crow.
Caw.. Caw.. Caw.. Caw.. Caw... Caw... Caw... Caw... Caw.... Caw... Caw... Caw.... Caw... Caw... Caw…
Itachi was obviously surprised, “This..ini..is a Crow Clone Technique!”.
But Itachi did not get shocked as the crow flew out of Ho's Crow Clone, starting the battle with the crow that flew out of Itachi's Crow Clone Technique, and Itachi was more surprised to see the number of crows. steadily increasing and increasing covering the entire daytime sky, they even surrounded him obscuring his field of vision.
No matter how much Itachi tried to eliminate these crows, which had previously disappeared in a puff of white smoke but at the same time, more crows appeared.
“No, this is not just the Crow Clone Technique!?” itachi muttered while killing the crow that kept attacking him.
"You're right Uchiha Itachi, this isn't just the Crow Clone Technique, it's a combination of the Crow Clone Technique and the Thousand Crow Scattering Technique!"
Just as he heard the sudden bewitching sound next to his left ear all the crows surrounding him and blurring the sky disappeared, and Itachi also froze in place.
He could not move, because if he did, his entire body would be mutilated into several pieces.
"It's my defeat." – Itachi said as he lowered his head in defeat.
Itachi was still a child, and it took all of his skills and experience to face Ho up to here, so he had no more energy, either, and as soon as the metal cable was removed by Ho Itachi instantly collapsed to the ground.
Looking at Itachi's disappointed face, Ho said, "There's no need to blame yourself, you can defeat my Crow Clone, you've been very good, and you'll only get better once your training is over." Ho's words were certainly a little sentimental.
Compared to Itachi, when Kuroto was at this age, Kuroto was not even able to face chunin in the same place let alone face a powerful individual like Homusubi.
So Itachi's potential is very, very, very high as long as he doesn't go through what he did in Naruto's original story, and that's obviously not going to happen because Itachi's chosen path here is different.
After resting for a while, Itachi said, “Ho-san, you are also a member of the Uchiha Clan, right? But if that's the case, why do I feel like I've never seen you inside the clan?
Based on Ho's fighting style, Itachi had found the answer.
Ho said, "You don't have to worry about these details for now."
Itachi fell silent and nodded after thinking a little.
Ho said again, “Alright, today's assessment ends here, I need to have an understanding of your ability to formulate your formal training plan, we'll start your official training starting tomorrow, be sure to come here tomorrow around the same time, the location of your training area will keep changing as we cannot stay on site more than once, he said, so be sure to follow up on the information I will send you.”
Itachi nodded, "Thank you very much Ho-san."
'Ho' nodded and said, “I'm sure you've understood this, but you have to make sure that no one knows where you're going or coming from, even Shisui in this case, otherwise, you will be instantly disqualified, be sure to always remember it.
Also, be sure to always be on the lookout for Shimura Danzo, and Orochimaru, there is a high chance that one of them might target you, understand?”
'Danzo-sama and Orochimaru-san?' Itachi thought of Ho's words a little, and then immediately nodded, "I understand."
Along the way home, Itachi analyzed the battle he had with Ho, and the actions he could take the next time, and before he realized it, Itachi was already back home.
Entering his house, Sasuke greeted him, "Nii-san, where did you go today?"
Itachi said with a gentle smile, "I went to practice Sasuke."
Itachi's cheeks puffed up with a funny frown, "You're so cunning nii-san, you always sneak away to practice alone or with Shisui-nii-san, you don't take me with you, huh!"
Itachi shook his head helplessly and started taking off his shinobi sandals.
Sasuke put both his hands on Itachi's back and said with a complaining look, “It's so boring toying with those kids, they're not even as good as me, ne-ne, nii-san, they're not, next time you go out to practice, will you take me with you?"
Itachi, who had taken off his Shinobi sandals, motioned for Sasuke to come closer.
Sasuke was pleased and quickly moved his head a little closer.
As Sasuke's head approached for a possible hug, Itachi flicked Sasuke's forehead and said, "Not now Sasuke, maybe another time."
After that, Itachi got up and walked towards the inner courtyard, his face thinking like before, as if he was considering some things, while Sasuke pouted while rubbing his forehead.
…
And a month passed.
In this one month, Itachi had to go through intensive training, no one was unfamiliar, the most benefit Itachi had was in his Taijutsu, which he was not familiar with, even if he can perfectly imitate most of the Taijutsu style because of his Sharingan, training it and understanding it. on a deeper level still makes a big difference. Thus, Itachi Taijutsu was most developed with his regular training and confrontation with Ho.
Itachi's growth speed was so fast that even Kuroto was very surprised, but when he thought that the person he was thinking of was Uchiha Itachi, then there was nothing more to think about.
In addition to training Itachi, Kuroto is also wary of the possible chaos that Hiruko might cause.
But to Kuroto's surprise, there was no movement from Hiruko's side, as if she did not plan to attack Konoha or any other shinobi village at all, and this caused both confusion as well as concern for Kuroto.
Shaking his head helplessly, Kuroto who had just finished her Anbuya task today returned to her home.
It was a quiet and peaceful night, a little too peaceful, and a little cold.
The sun had long since set, and the moon was already overhead, the street lights were already on, lighting up the streets.
Walking leisurely on the road, Kuroto thought, 'Either Nagato managed to temper Hiruko, or something was wrong with Hiruko's state, and the Kekkei Genkai he absorbed, or perhaps Obito was planning something, he said, otherwise, it was hard to imagine that Hiruko would have been quiet for so long.'
But Kuroto will bet on the last possible scenario.
Since Kuroto intuitively felt that something big was going to happen, and Hiruko would definitely be a part of something big that, otherwise, it was almost impossible to stop it for so long.
Walking to his house, Kuroto sees an Anbu shinobi with two children waiting at the gate of his house.
Kuroto frowned, even more so when she realized who the two children were.
Walking closer to home, Kuroto asked, “Hah... Shion-chan, you....what are you doing in Konoha?”
As soon as Shion smears Kuroto, she immediately rushes towards him in tears, “Kuroto-oniichan.. please... please save... Oka-sanku!”.
