Chapter 697 meet

Afternoon, light snow.

Now it is the coldest time of the year. After the heavy snow, there is light snow again. Under the cold wind, there are many fewer people going out for activities. scarf.

Even the arrogant Uchiha is no exception. Their slightly bloated clothes and shy posture made them seem to lose a little bit of indifference and a little more common sense of intimacy.

Of course, this is only an appearance, and it is an appearance that no one cares about.

The Uchiha tribe naturally exudes an arrogant temperament, especially when interacting with outsiders, which can usually be discerned at a glance. It is actually the aliens in this tribe that make people feel friendly.

In the eyes of outsiders, Uchiha Fugaku is a typical Uchiha, especially he was also named as a genius, and later became the patriarch of Uchiha and the captain of the Konoha garrison. He has been in a high position for a long time and cultivated his majesty. , far more than the ordinary Uchiha.

However, who knows what troubles this Uchiha patriarch has in his heart?

In the restaurant, Uchiha Fugaku put down the tableware neatly, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then looked at his wife and second son who were sitting opposite.

As for the eldest son, Itachi, he received an emergency call from Anbu last night, so he couldn't have breakfast with his family.

This situation is very common for ninjas, and Itachi is still a member of Anbu, which is even more different from ordinary ninjas.

It's just Anbu's convening order, but it once again cast a haze on Uchiha Fugaku's heart, and he became more and more eager for the next thing to see that person.

Of course, even so, he still maintained Uchiha's demeanor and finished lunch with his family as usual.

"Don't go out again in the afternoon, and Sasuke is the same." Uchiha Fuyue said.

"Huh?" Mikoto Uchiha looked at her husband in surprise, and then she didn't ask any more questions. The gentle look in her eyes became a little more serious, and she nodded and said, "I see, don't worry."

Although she only heard about the affairs of the family, as the wife of Uchiha Fugaku, the patriarch, she knew many things that ordinary people in the family didn't know.

But as a qualified wife, even if she doesn't know where Uchiha Fugaku is going, or what to do, who to meet, she trusts each other unconditionally. For a woman who is almost completely devoted to the family, Her husband and children are everything to her.

It's just such an exhortation, but it makes Sasuke a little worried.

He frowned tightly, grabbed the chopsticks and glanced at Uchiha Fugaku for a few moments, but he hesitated to speak after all, and finally vented his depression on the food.

Of course, these small movements could not be hidden from Uchiha Fugaku's eyes. He stood up and paused for a few seconds, recalling in his mind the time when Sasuke wanted to learn the fireball technique.

"Sasuke, practice at home this afternoon, and I will test you later." He said to Sasuke, "If you improve, I might be able to spare time to teach you the art of fire escape."

"Really?" Sasuke's eyes widened when he heard the words, and he exclaimed with joy.

"It's time to eat."

Uchiha Mikoto quickly pressed Sasuke's shoulder, otherwise he might have jumped onto the table now, and couldn't hold back his anger and patted his head.

Leaving home, Uchiha Fugaku walked to a remote alley, and walked out from the other side after a while, but the one who came out directly was just a shadow clone, whose body had already taken a special road, heading towards the suburban area of ​​Konoha Village And went.

The cold wind blows the flying snowflakes, flying in the forest where all the leaves are gone and only the bare branches are left.

It is far away from the area where the villagers live, and the surrounding area is extremely quiet, as if no one has ever set foot in it.

However, Uchiha Fugaku was keenly aware of a breath, and then stopped to follow the feeling, and saw a ninja dressed in Anbe, standing on a strong tree branch and looking at him.

"Please come with me."

When the indifferent words came, the ninja turned around, turned his back to Fugaku Uchiha, and then jumped out.

Without hesitation, Uchiha Fugaku followed closely behind. A moment later, he passed through a barrier, and the scene in the forest immediately changed, and an entrance leading to the underground appeared in front of him.

Combining illusion with enchantment, I never heard that the enchantment class has developed such a method, is it that one?

Uchiha Fugaku silently thought about that person's information, guessing in his heart.

Going deep into the ground along the dark road, the root ninja finally stopped in front of a thick and simple door, then moved aside sideways, and only motioned for Uchiha Fugaku to enter.

Looking at the gate in front of him, Uchiha Fugaku looked calm, nodded slightly, and walked forward.

Amidst the creaking sound, the door opened, and the empty scene inside came into view, followed by the figure sitting on the high seat.

The simple and heavy door closed with a slight muffled sound, and Uchiha Fugaku stopped, and said respectfully and unassumingly: "Thank you Natsuki-sama for giving me the opportunity to come here to meet you in person."

His voice was particularly clear and powerful in the empty space, and upon hearing his words, the young man on the high seat shook his head slightly and let out a soft sigh, as if something was beyond his expectation.

"I really didn't expect that you would be so persistent when I came here, and even handed over the greeting card for the second time." Xia Shu frowned, and said in a low tone: "Tell me, Uchiha Fugaku, you didn't declare war on Uchiha's behalf!"

As soon as these words came out, the cold and gloomy space seemed to freeze suddenly, and the strong murderous aura and coercion poured down from the high seat, all gathered on Uchiha Fugaku's body.

Under this external influence and stimulation, Uchiha Fugaku's body couldn't help shaking, and at the same time scarlet color flashed in his eyes, and he was immediately suppressed by his powerful self-control.

He lowered his head, breathed lightly and said, "It's absolutely nothing!"

"Hmph! Do you know it in your heart?" Xia Shu snorted coldly, and said with a condescending look: "If you came here just to say such a sentence, then turn around and go back directly. Doing meaningless things, in the end it's nothing but Just wasting time."

The tone of these words was cold, but apart from that, there seemed to be some disappointment.

Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but feel anxious, but he still considered for a moment before opening his mouth and said: "Please calm down, Mr. Natsuki, I urgently request an interview because of the status quo of our clan. But regarding the declaration of war, I There is absolutely no such heart.”

"That's just you." Xia Shu said mercilessly, "Although you have the name of patriarch, how many people in the Uchiha clan care about your thoughts?"
