Naruto: In the name of time, shock the ninja world!.

Chapter 291 Uchiha Itachi, 1 year probation period.

The scorching sun hung high in the sky, scorching the earth and bringing heat to Konoha.

Uchiha clan territory, clan leader's residence.

The sun was shining brightly at this time. Uchiha Mikoto came to the living room holding a little boy, and then knelt on the tatami with dignity.

Seeing this, the clever little boy nearby also started to imitate her.

Uchiha Mikoto covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard that, and stroked his head lovingly.

"Father!" The little guy said in a baby voice to Uchiha Fugaku in front of him, but the two-year-old child was unusually calm.

Uchiha Fugaku nodded slightly, a barely perceptible smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, but it quickly disappeared.

"Itachi, you are already two years old, and you can start laying the foundation." Uchiha Fugaku said to his son with full of expectations in his eyes.

Uchiha Mikoto said worriedly, "This is too early. All the children in the clan start at the age of four. Itachi is too young."

She tried to persuade Fugaku to change his mind. She felt it was too hasty to start exercising for a two-year-old.

What's more, as a mother, no one wants her child to suffer, especially the child of a clan leader, who has an even heavier responsibility.

Hearing this, how could Fugaku not know what she was worried about, but he also understood that Itachi was much more mature than he had imagined. Even though he was still small and not even as long as his legs, his agility seemed to be overflowing.

This forced Fugaku to take it seriously, so he started training in advance to lay the foundation.

"Mikoto, Itachi is our child, I won't harm him." Fugaku's voice was very soft, as if he was negotiating, not like the head of a clan at all.

In the ninja world, men have a very high status and many important matters are decided by men alone, not to mention large families, where the clan leader is the absolute authority.

Mikoto felt very conflicted after hearing this. She laid her hands flat on her legs, tightly grasping the corner of her clothes, and was quite hesitant.

Seeing this, Uchiha Itachi took the initiative to say: "Mother, I can do it."

A "yes" broke Mikoto's hesitation. She sighed softly, then hugged Itachi in her arms and kissed him gently on the forehead.

"Don't overwork yourself. Do what you can. You're just a kid."

Uchiha Itachi nodded seriously, then rubbed his little face in again, looking very enjoyable.

Seeing this, Fugaku couldn't help but sigh and said, "Mikoto, don't blame me for being too anxious. Konoha is about to undergo a major change, and Uchiha needs a pillar."

"If we miss the opportunity in the future, the Uchiha will be overturned overnight."

As he spoke, Fugaku's eyes sparkled and his expression was serious.

"You are talking about Lord Hoshino's ascension to the throne in a year." Mikoto thought for a moment and thought of the big event that was about to happen in Konoha.

Uchiha Itachi in his arms blinked his big eyes and listened to his parents' conversation with curiosity.

Fugaku nodded and said solemnly: "Well, it is because of this incident that the pattern of the unification of the ninja world will gradually become clear, and all forces will be reshuffled at that time."

"As a large clan, we, the Uchiha clan, will naturally be affected, and we may even be among the first to be affected."

Having said this, Fugaku looked extremely solemn, as if a heavy burden of a thousand pounds was pressing on his body, making it hard for him to breathe.

Mikoto heard this and a worried look appeared on her pretty face: "Once Lord Hoshino ascends the throne, the remaining resistance forces in the ninja world will be defeated."

"All the families will be subordinate to Master Hoshino, and Konoha's power structure will be broken down and reorganized."

Being able to be Fugaku's wife means that she has extraordinary qualities. At the very least, her political sensitivity must be quite good and her sense of smell is sharp.

It is not surprising to be able to sense the interests involved in this great change.

"So, the previous promise to Uchiha..." Mikoto suddenly realized this and looked sharply at Fugaku.

But Fugaku just shook his head and said confidently: "Don't worry about that. Master Hoshino never breaks his promise."

Mikoto nodded in agreement, but couldn't help but say, "But there won't be any Hokages in the future, so how can we keep our promise?"

Fugaku said with a smile: "The position of Hokage represents the highest authority, and the highest authority right now is Lord Hoshino."

"No Uchiha would ever compete with an adult. This is unrealistic."

"But now the ninja world is unified, and Konoha's jurisdiction has expanded from one village to the entire ninja world."

"The bigger the pie, the more you get. Even if there's no position for Hokage, it's enough for the Uchiha."

"At the end of the day, what 'Hokage' represents is power, and now, all we have to do is wait."

Fugaku's series of words were clear and logical, and they dispelled Mikoto's confusion at the root.

"I see." Mikoto said suddenly.

"However, it is not so easy to keep this power." Fugaku changed his tone.

Mikoto looked at him in confusion, and Fugaku continued, "With great power comes great responsibility. At that time, it will depend on whether the Uchiha's actions can satisfy Master Hoshino."

Hearing this, Mikoto nodded in agreement. Although the ninja world seems calm now, it is actually undercurrent.

When Hoshino Kaede ascends the throne and consolidates power, it is bound to make people dissatisfied and cause unrest.

Now is the best time for the family and individuals to contribute, and it is also the best time to show themselves to Xingye Feng.

The more effort you put in, the more benefits you will get in the future.

It can be said that this year is a time to examine many families and individuals, and at the same time to eliminate hidden dangers and consolidate the existing structure of the ninja world.

There is no complicated procedure, only simple and crude one. This kind of screening, although rough, is very convenient.

In one year, it will be clear who is a good general and who has bad intentions.

Uchiha Itachi heard every word of their conversation, and his fair and soft face was filled with thought and curiosity.

He was thinking about why his parents cared so much about that Lord Hoshino and why they were so respectful to him.

I am even more curious about who Lord Hoshino is and why the Uchiha respect and obey him so much.

It is better to act than to think. Uchiha Itachi expressed his doubts. His childish voice made Fugaku and Mikoto smile at each other.

Mikoto pinched Itachi's soft face and said softly: "You are still young and don't know what happened in the past. You can find the answers yourself when you grow up."

"You just need to know that Master Hoshino is the undisputed leader in the ninja world. Without you, the Uchiha wouldn't be where they are today."

Fugaku nodded in agreement. His expression was not as relaxed as Mikoto's, but rather stern and serious.

"Your mother is right. Lord Hoshino brought life to the Uchiha. You must respect him in the future and obey his words."

Fugaku's tone was extremely serious, which made Uchiha Itachi even more curious about Lord Hoshino's identity. He secretly made up his mind to find out the complete information, starting from tomorrow.

While he made up his mind, he did not forget to respond to his father. He nodded with a straight face and said, "I understand, father."
