Chapter 239: Naruto
"Sasuke, come here. Today, I'll take you to my friend's house, so that you can meet a new friend." Mikoto Uchiha waved at Sasuke who was still running around in the courtyard.
It had been seven months since Sasuke was born. Perhaps it was because his parents were both Shinobi. Although he was only seven months old, he learned to speak very quickly. Now, he could speak fluently and he was very healthy.
"A new friend? Wohoo." Sasuke's eyes lit up when he heard Mikoto wanted to take him to meet a new friend.
Because of the war with Kumogakure, Fugaku asked Sasuke to stay at home for his safety although Konoha didn't receive any damage.
Itachi, however, was different, because unlike Sasuke, he was already strong enough to protect himself.
That mature part of Itachi that was clearly beyond his age had always made Fugaku feel very assured.
This made Sasuke very bored as he could only play with all kinds of toys in the yard every day and wait for his brother to come back.
But sometimes, when Itachi saw that Sasuke was bored, he wouldn't hesitate to skip a day of training to accompany Sasuke.
"Sasuke, slow down. Be careful!" Uchiha Mikoto saw Sasuke running over and gently reminded him.
It was as if she forgot that she was a Jonin, who could easily catch Sasuke even if he did fall.
"It's fine, I won't fall." Sasuke successfully arrived next to Uchiha and Mikoto safely and smiled confidently.
