- “I didn’t want you to worry if we ran away, and then you came home, so I
- waited for you.”
- “Mm hmm.” His mother nodded, tears spilling down her face.
- Eyes that had been narrowed with the tension of having to protect his little
- brother relaxed to some degree. But this was fleeting. When he noticed
- something closing in from behind his mother, those eyes quickly regained
- their original grimness.
- “Mom!” He practically threw Sasuke to his mother. And then he flew.
- A boulder tossed into the air by Nine Tails shattered near their house, and
- the pieces danced above their heads. One chunk was falling toward his
- mother’s back. He looked down at her, clutching Sasuke to her chest. Her
- surprised eyes chased after him; he could see the question there, her
- wondering just what was happening to make Itachi leap up so suddenly.
- The rock was enormous, large enough to easily crush a mother and her two
- children.
- “I’ll protect you,” he murmured. He clenched his fist tightly.
- The physical arts of the ninja were not about strength. He might have been
- a small child of five years, body as yet undeveloped, but as long as he
- managed to knead his chakra properly, he could smash even this enormous
- rock.
- He brandished his fist high in the air. Chakra filled his arm, covering it in
- faint blue flames.
- The rock slammed into Itachi’s fist, and exploded with a shriek.
- Even a child could effortlessly destroy boulders, as long as they simply
- kept up their ninja training.
- Showered in a rain of pebbles, he landed soundlessly on the ground.
