Bang! Bang!

By a small river in a remote corner of Konoha, two short figures kept flickering and colliding.

If a ninja saw this battle, they would definitely be shocked.

Because, these two children who seemed to be just entering the ninja school actually had strength that surpassed that of ordinary genin.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"

After a neck-and-neck battle in physical skills, the two distanced themselves, quickly formed seals, and used their best ninjutsu.

Kabuto stood on the river, a large amount of water in the river gathered, and finally formed a ferocious water dragon hovering next to Kabuto's young body.

Not to be outdone, Itachi continued to spit out large amounts of flames from his mouth, eventually forming a large fireball that looked like it would explode at any time.

Go Fireball is the Uchiha clan's signature ninjutsu. Although it is a C-level ninjutsu, it is very powerful.

Soon, under Kabuto's control, the water dragon flew towards Itachi.

At the same time, Itachi's huge fireball also flew towards Kabuto.

Sizzle!!!

The huge fireball and the water dragon collided together, and the sound of water being evaporated was heard instantly.

So much water evaporated in one time, and bursts of white mist were produced in an instant, covering the surroundings, and the figures of the two people were hidden in the white mist.

Having lost Kabuto's vision, Itachi didn't panic at all, lightly jumped up and dodged the remaining water dragon.

Because it is by the river, Kabuto's water dragon bullet can use the water in the river, but his powerful fire ball cannot completely offset it.

Itachi silently used the Shadow Clone Technique to separate two clones, making one of the clones run on the shore, while the other clone stood next to him.

call out!

Not long after, the sound of a shuriken piercing the air was heard, and a black shuriken struck at the running clone.

boom!

The shadow clone that was hit by the shuriken turned into smoke and disappeared.

At this time, the white mist produced by the water vapor gradually dissipated, and the figures of the two people began to appear.

After the sound of breaking through the air sounded, Itachi almost instantly threw two shurikens in the direction of the sound.

But Kabuto had already been prepared and left the spot the moment he threw the shuriken.

Itachi's shuriken naturally missed and passed by Kabuto.

But just when Kabuto relaxed his guard, one of the two failed shurikens turned into Itachi.

The weasel on the shore is also a clone!

Itachi, who got close to Kabuto, put a kunai on Kabuto's neck.

"I lost." Kabuto readily admitted defeat.

Itachi put the kunai away and put it in his ninja bag.

"Itachi, you are so strong. You are obviously one year younger than me, but you are so strong." Kabuto praised without hesitation.

Ever since they met here by chance, they both felt good about each other and gradually became familiar with each other. Now they often train together.

This is not the first time the battle has happened. The two of them have won and lost each other, but Kabuto loses more than he wins.

After all, the time he started training as a ninja was still too short, and there was still a certain gap between him and Itachi.

"Kabuto, you are awesome too." Itachi replied briefly.

But this is not a business bragging, but he really thinks that Kabuto is awesome.

In his usual conversation, he learned that Kabuto had only been practicing for four months, and to be able to reach such a level, his talent was definitely not simple.

"But I guess I won't have that much time to practice with you in the future." Kabuto remembered that he was going to Ninja School soon, and then said.

Ninja school starts on April 1st. Today is the last day of March. He will go to ninja school tomorrow.

"Why?" Itachi asked confused.

"Because I'm going to ninja school tomorrow, so I won't have time to come here." Kabuto replied with a smile.

He is looking forward to Ninja School.

After graduating from the ninja school, he becomes a real ninja and can do tasks to make money.

Itachi:……

He is only five years old this year, and his father plans to let him go to ninja school when he is six years old.

Although Itachi's expression did not change, Kabuto's keen sense could sense the changes in Itachi's heart, which made Itachi feel a little disappointed.

Kabuto laughed twice, patted Itachi on the shoulder and said:

"I'm just going to school, not going to another village. If I have time in the future, I will come here to practice.

Itachi, don't relax your training without me, otherwise it will be bad if you are easily defeated by me."

Itachi didn't speak, but his sharp eyes already told Kabuto the answer.

Next time, it will be him who wins.

The two rested for a while and soon started training again.

Where Itachi and Kabuto didn't notice, a ninja left silently.

……………………

Recently, Uchiha Fugaku discovered that the whereabouts of his genius son were very strange.

Every time after lunch, I would go out quickly and then not come back all afternoon, only coming back when it was almost time for dinner.

He asked Itachi what he was doing out there, and Itachi said he was going to train.

Fugaku:?

Uchiha has a special training ground, so why don't you go out to train?

However, Itachi's strength has indeed been growing steadily, so Fugaku didn't say anything.

But he was still a little worried, fearing that his genius son would be led astray by someone waiting outside.

Itachi's talent was so good that he could use it immediately after just watching him perform the Fireball Technique once. Fugaku saw a glimmer of hope in Itachi.

Therefore, Fugaku finally sent someone to follow Itachi today to see what he was doing.

"What did Itachi do?" Fugaku asked, looking at the Uchiha ninja who came back to report.

"Itachi did go to train, right next to a remote creek in the village." The Uchiha ninja replied.

Fugaku nodded. It seemed that his genius son was not a bad student, but why didn't he practice at the training ground within the Uchiha clan?

"However, there is one of Itachi's peers there who is training with Itachi and seems to have a good relationship with Itachi." The Uchiha ninja continued.

Fugaku frowned slightly, this must be because Itachi was not practicing at the clan training ground.

"How strong is that person?" Fugaku asked.

"A bit worse than Itachi."

"Just a little bit?" Fugaku asked again.

He knew Itachi's strength. Even though he was only five years old, ordinary genin were definitely no match for Itachi.

If someone of the same age has a strength that is only slightly inferior to Itachi, then he is definitely a genius.

"Yeah." The Uchiha ninja nodded.

"Can you tell which family it belongs to?" Fugaku thought for a while and asked.

The Uchiha ninja shook his head.

"Investigate the details of that person." Fugaku finally said.

He felt that that person should be a family ninja. Civilian ninjas did not have this condition. There were too few geniuses among civilians.
