Naruto, Be My Son

Chapter 17: Chapter 17: The Newcomer of the ANBU - Uchiha Itachi! A Filial Son In The Ninja World



Although Kakashi didn't know much about the Root, Among the dozen Root ninjas, he felt that at least two of them were Jounin.

 The rest of the Root members were either special Jounin or chunin, and there wasn't a single henin among them.

 But what did he see?! !

 "Isn't this too exaggerated?" Kakashi felt a dryness in his mouth as he watched Whitebeard deliver a single punch into the air. 

 The atmosphere seemed to shatter into pieces with a clear, glass-breaking sound.

 It was definitely not an illusion!

 The violent shaking of the air caused a strong wind, and the buildings beneath their feet trembled slightly. This was most likely the result of Whitebeard's strange abilities.

 Otherwise...

 Naruto's house wouldn't just experience a slight tremor, it would be filled with cracks, just like the other buildings.

 This single punch affected the entire street.

 Not a single building remained unscathed, and not an inch of land was left undamaged.

 As far as the eye could see,

 it was a scene of devastation.

 -Fire! Earthquake! The residents on the street panicked, rushing out of their homes. "How could there be a sudden earthquake? It's been years since the last one!"

 When they ran outside, they saw the widespread destruction.

 They also saw a "giant" standing there.

 They were so shocked that they didn't dare to make a sound.

 The aura emanating from that giant made them shiver as if they had turned into ants, and the giant was a mammoth.

 The sense of oppression was overwhelming! !

 Kakashi glanced at the civilians and felt a headache coming on. "I wonder if anyone got caught up in this. Those under the command of Shimura Danzo don't seem to care about the consequences of their actions on Konoha Village."

 "And now, all of them..." Kakashi widened his expressionless eye. "Are they all dead?"

 The ground was stained with crimson blood, making it even more striking.

 A dozen of root ninjas were blasted into pieces.

 Not a complete corpse was left!

 Kakashi turned to look at Naruto in the room and found that he had not been awakened by the commotion outside. "This kid... sleeps like a log, maybe he's just too tired from the day."

 He looked back at Whitebeard's figure.

 At that moment, 

 Kakashi realized that the new "Father" recognized by Naruto was even more powerful than anyone had imagined.

 Perhaps this Whitebeard...

 Could fight the Hokage?

 .....

 "Hmm? An earthquake?"

 At the same time, Shimura Danzo, who was waiting for news from the ANBU assassination squad, felt a slight tremor in the ground. His brow furrowed deeply.

 For some reason, He had a bad feeling.

 "Could it be... the root ninjas couldn't handle that Whitebeard? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

 Danzo shook his head.

 Two Jounin, two special Jounin, and ten chunin ninjas. With a squad like this, even experienced elite Jounin ninjas would probably have to sacrifice their lives if they encountered them.

 He didn't believe that an outsider had the strength to escape from the root ninjas.

 If the other party was really that powerful.

 And with so many spies planted in the village by the anbu, allowing such a powerful outsider to enter the village and even establish a bond with the Jinchuriki...

 What were they doing?

 It was a serious dereliction of duty!

 "Sarutobi, you've grown old and are no longer the ninja you once were," Danzo muttered, gazing at the candlelight, his expression unchanged. But his ambitious eyes showed that he was determined. "Since you can't make certain decisions, I'll make them for you."

He dispatched the Root to assassinate Whitebeard without informing Sarutobi Hiruzen. This was an unauthorized action from the Root.

Danzo believed he was doing the right thing.

 "I'm doing it for the sake of Konoha!"

 .....

 In his office, Sarutobi Hiruzen was working late, but the sudden tremor caused his pen to break.

 He perked up his ears and faintly sensed something in the distance.

 Hiruzen's expression changed.

 He dropped the broken pen and rushed to the window.

 He looked at the scene in the distance, and his expression wasn't very pleasant. He addressed the air to his side, "Itachi! Go check what's happening at Naruto's place! If there's trouble, help Kakashi to deal with it."

 "Understood!" Uchiha Itachi, who had just turned 11 last month and had become a new member of the anbu, responded from beneath his anbu mask.

 A nearly invisible black shadow passed by the window, resembling a raven, heading towards Naruto's house.

 Back in the office, Hiruzen's expression grew stronger.

 In the dim moonlight, he could see the street in the distance, shrouded in a faint dust cloud.

 That was where Naruto lived.

 Something must happen!

 .....

 "Despite having a frail body, they can breathe fire, control water, and manipulate earth and strong winds." Whitebeard remarked, clicking his tongue in amazement. "These shinobi in the ninja world are all so peculiar."

 With that said,

 Whitebeard no longer paid attention to the scattered remains. He turned to Kakashi and asked, "White-haired brat, are you planning to assassinate me too?"

 "No!" Kakashi quickly responded. "The Hokage only tasked me with protecting Naruto, there were no other orders given."

 He immediately distanced himself from the root members.

 He didn't want to experience the terrifying power of Whitebeard's punch, which reminded him of Lady Tsunade.

 "Then clean up this mess!" 

 Whitebeard's tone was authoritative. "Gurararara. Since you've accepted that ridiculous Hokage's order, I assume you don't want Naruto to wake up and see that the ground is filled with corpse, do you?"

 Kakashi wanted to say something to Whitebeard, "I'm not a battlefield janitor. I've never done such work."

 But the look in Whitebeard's eyes made him swallow his words.

 "I'll clean it up," Kakashi mumbled to himself. He figured a few subtle Water Release jutsu would be enough to wash away the Root members' remains into the sewer.

 After all, these Root members were shrouded in the dark side of the village, and many didn't even have names.

 Concealed behind masks during their lifetime

 After death, they are disposed of in the sewers.

 Yes, that seemed fitting.

 "White-haired brat, you seem like someone who can manipulate earth, right?" Whitebeard directed another command. "Then fix the cracks in the ground. As for the cracked walls, they can stay that way. It's the price they pay for bullying my son."

 Hey, isn't that taking it too far? I'm not some maid with white hair, and yet I'm being asked to do this menial work?

 Kakashi's head was filled with black lines.

 but ....

 But he did it anyway.

 Kakashi performed several Earth Release jutsu to repair the ground.

 He felt like a Jounin ninja working as a construction laborer.

 Fortunately, there were no people he knew nearby and no one who knew him. This way, he wouldn't lose too much face, right?

 "Kakashi-senpai?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind. "The Hokage has sent me to see what's going on."

 It was Itachi, hidden behind the anbu mask.

 "Senpai, what are you doing?"

 Itachi seemed puzzled.

 Kakashi: "..."

 "Damn it!"
