I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

As the morning light gradually turned into dim yellow, the Konoha Ninja Academy was filled with the childish chattering of children after school, most of them in groups of two or three.

Seeing her deskmate Uchiha Itachi packing up quickly, Inuzuka Hana asked curiously, "Itachi, is your aunt coming to pick you up today?"

Uchiha Itachi froze, looked at her with a blank mind, and asked stupidly: "What?"

Thinking she had remembered it wrong, Inuzuka Hana waved her hands embarrassedly.

"Sorry, it should be your brother, right?"

Even after hearing her change her name to Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi still couldn't come back to his senses. He clenched the book in his hand until his fingertips turned white.

Until he walked out of the school gate, Uchiha Itachi couldn't remember what the inexplicable emotion that suddenly emerged in him was.

Finally, he found Uchiha Itachi who was lagging behind among the sparse little dots, and Uchiha Shisui raised his hand to greet him.

"Itachi! Over here!"

Uchiha Shisui, who was three years older than him, was much taller than him, making him quite conspicuous among the other parents. His inherent coldness made the other parents around him stay away from him.

Uchiha Itachi saw him easily.

Too easy.

His heart couldn't help but feel sad.

Walking home with Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but stare at him.

Uchiha Shisui has passed the Anbu test and officially became a member of the Anbu. Sometimes when the mission is over quickly, they will come and wait for him to go back together.

Some of them couldn't remember how they knew each other, but Uchiha Shisui could be said to be the person who knew him best besides his family.

Uchiha Itachi pursed his lips, but decided to ask: "Shisui, do I... do I have an aunt?"

"aunt?"

Uchiha Shisui frowned in confusion. He felt that the name was a little familiar, but he didn't know where it was familiar. In the end, he could only scratch his head.

"No, don't you only have one brother?"

"That's right..." Uchiha Itachi forced a smile and didn't continue the topic.

Sensing that he was in a bad mood, Uchiha Shisui raised his hand and put his arm around his shoulders, with the warm aura of an older brother rushing over him, "Do you want to go eat some dango?"

"No, I need to get home and take care of Sasuke."

Uchiha Shisui was not annoyed by his rejection, and said jokingly: "You are a child, and you are taking care of another child."

"I promised to take good care of Sasuke."

As soon as the words came out, Uchiha Itachi was stunned for a moment.

This promise that he had engraved in his heart, a promise that he was determined to fulfill, to whom was it made...

Uchiha Sasuke was only a few months old and could not speak or crawl, but he seemed to know that he had a brother who loved him. Every time Uchiha Itachi appeared in front of him, he would smile and wave his little hands.

Usually while his mother was cooking, Uchiha Itachi would take care of him in the living room.

It was late at night, and when Uchiha Fugaku dragged his tired body home, delicious food had already been prepared for him on the table.

Uchiha Fugaku ate the rice in his bowl slowly, glanced at Uchiha Itachi on his right, and whispered: "I heard that you applied for an early graduation exam."

Uchiha Itachi put down his chopsticks and replied seriously: "Yes, father, the teacher said that my ability is enough for me to graduate early."

"Hmm." Uchiha Fugaku groaned and said nothing more.

Knowing that his father probably had something to discuss in detail after dinner, Uchiha Itachi fell silent and concentrated on eating.

After the meal, Uchiha Fugaku patted the table as expected, signaling him not to leave.

"The masked man who attacked Hokage-sama has been identified. He was assigned to be the Fourth Hokage's subordinate and a member of the Uchiha clan who disappeared not long ago, Uchiha Ihiko."

"He had always hated Konoha, but because of his outstanding abilities and his peaceful personality, he was chosen by the top management."

"Me too, I didn't take precautions early enough. Fortunately, the Hokage doesn't blame the Uchiha... Shisui has already joined the Anbu, so you can also go and gain some experience in the Anbu after you graduate early."

Without explaining the meaning in detail, Uchiha Fugaku glanced at him nodding obediently and was a little dazed.

His eldest son has always been so obedient.

Then, as if touched by someone, Uchiha Fugaku relaxed his brows and patted his shoulder with his big palm.

"But it depends on your own wishes."

As usual, his father would have arranged everything for him and informed him, and Uchiha Itachi would have no complaints. After all, he knew that his father was doing it for his own good, just as he had led him to the battlefield.

What he didn't expect was that his father would give him the right to choose with such a kind attitude.

Uchiha Itachi nodded even more vigorously. The precocious and steady child's eyes were full of sparkles at this moment, showing his admiration and respect for his father.

"Okay, let's have some fruit after dinner." Uchiha Mikoto smiled and brought a plate and placed it in front of them.

There were many exquisite and cute rabbit apples lying quietly on the white porcelain plate. Seeing this nightmare-like existence, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Itachi both changed their expressions.

Seeing their fearful expressions, Uchiha Mikoto burst out laughing.

"Why do you look so grim?"

Hearing that she said "you guys", Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Itachi looked at each other in confusion.

After a few seconds, Uchiha Itachi chuckled and covered his mouth with his hands, while Uchiha Fugaku also raised the corners of his mouth slightly and tried to cover it up by drinking tea.

A warm and joyful atmosphere permeated the entire dining table, while the chair symbolizing the fourth person sat empty in front of the table.

*

It had been a long time since I had had a big fight with Haruko. Although they both pretended nothing had happened afterwards, the tiny crack could not be ignored.

Orochimaru doesn't consider himself a good person. If he hates someone, he will definitely disdain to see that person.

The thought of the fact that I had a past relationship with the other person made me so sick that I couldn't eat.

If he hates the other person to the extreme, he will find ways to retaliate severely. Even if they had a deep friendship in the past, he will torture them to death at all costs, even pulling out their tendons and flaying their bones until nothing remains.

Therefore, when faced with Haruko's mild "disgust", he felt no ripples in his heart.

Just like raindrops hitting the ground without knowing their own strength, no matter how continuous or heavy the rain is, it cannot cause any impact on the hard ground.

It's not that the rain is too weak, but that the ground is too hard.

But even someone as arrogant as him didn't expect the rain to last so long.

The raindrops kept falling with a rustling sound, which didn't hurt but was impossible to ignore. Orochimaru thought casually that it seemed that the rain had never stopped since the moment she appeared again.

I thought they would not have any intersection for a long time, even forever.

But she is always so soft-hearted, no matter towards other people or towards herself who tries extremely hard to possess her.

Catching the soft footsteps outside the laboratory that were different from those of Anko Mitarashi, Orochimaru froze in his experiment. No one was more familiar with this sound than him.

Before he could organize his thoughts and think about what attitude to use to greet their first meeting after the quarrel, the sound of knocking on the door and the clear voice of the girl rang at the door.

"Orochimaru, can I come in?"

Orochimaru heard himself sneer subconsciously, "Do you need to ask for permission when to come in?"
