"Oh!"
After a helpless sigh, he turned and left.
Time slowly passed.
By eleven-thirty in the morning, Uchiha Jin, having finished his ablutions, opened his door with a yawn, preparing to go to Teuchi and Ayame's home.
After all, they had agreed yesterday to celebrate his becoming a ninja.
However, when he opened the door and saw Itachi training at the entrance, his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Yes.
He had completely forgotten about his disciple.
Clearing his throat awkwardly, Uchiha Jin could only speak.
"Uh, Itachi!"
"I'm really sorry, I overslept a bit."
"What time did you get here?"
Itachi's expression was calm.
He had already gained a basic understanding of his unreliable teacher.
--- Please give me flowers --- "It's fine, Teacher." Itachi spoke softly: "I came at six-thirty; I can train here too."
Hiss!
Hearing this, Jin gasped.
Truly, it was Itachi!
He was genuinely impressed by his disciple.
No wonder he would become a powerful figure in the future, stirring up such great storms in the Shinobi World.
He was a genius, yet so disciplined.
It would be an injustice if he didn't become strong!
He glanced at the dark circles under Itachi's eyes; it was clear that he hadn't slept well last night.
He wanted to offer some advice.
But considering Uchiha Itachi's temperament, he ultimately chose to give up.
Shaking his head helplessly, he couldn't help but speak.
"Being too diligent isn't always a good thing."
"Since you didn't rest well last night, you don't need to train today."
...
"The human body has its limits."
"When training, the foundation is the most important; if you train like this, your body will break down."
"Don't tell me about others; since you chose me to be your teacher, you must listen to me regarding your training."
"Now, come eat with me."
"Then go straight back to sleep, wake up around five in the afternoon to move around a bit, and continue sleeping by eleven at night at the latest."
"Come find me for training first thing tomorrow morning."
Uchiha Jin's expression was serious.
Because of chakra, the Shinobi World didn't focus on foundations at all.
But as someone who had lived two lives, he clearly understood the importance of a solid foundation.
Although he had various dislikes for Itachi in the original work,
after truly interacting with him, this child was so sensible it was heartbreaking.
He was the son of the Uchiha Clan Leader, the top young master of a prominent family in the entire Shinobi World.
If it were in his previous life, he would be a top-tier second-generation rich kid.
Under such circumstances, he not only remained grounded but also worked hard and was sensible to this extent; you couldn't even find any flaws in him.
Therefore.
Since he had already taken him as a disciple, he naturally wouldn't be perfunctory.
Uchiha Itachi: "..."
He wanted to retort, but looking at the serious Jin, he ultimately chose to remain silent.
Even if he didn't understand, he still chose to accept.
He could see that Jin was doing it for his own good!
He truly admired his teacher through their conversation last night.
Since his teacher said so, he would listen.
"Alright then."
"I'll listen to Teacher and go back to sleep soon."
Chapter 76: The Uchiha's Bad Reputation? Give an Example!
Konoha, Commercial Street.
A simple two-story building was the residence of Teuchi and Ayame.
Because they were just commoners, even with a restaurant, their life was still a bit tight.
Uchiha Jin brought a large pile of gifts and arrived directly with Itachi.
"Uncle Teuchi, Ayame!"
"Thank you so much today; you even have to delay opening the shop."
Jin said with a smile.
Itachi followed him, and upon seeing Teuchi and Ayame, he also bowed and greeted them.
It must be said.
Although the Uchiha were arrogant, they were, after all, a prominent Konoha family, and Itachi's upbringing was truly exceptionally good.
Teuchi Ichiraku smiled.
Regarding Uchiha Jin's words, he just smiled, shook his head, and then said with a laugh: "It's no trouble at all; why did you bring so many things?"
"Hurry up and wash your hands. I'm almost ready here; we can start eating directly."
"And, Itachi-kun, right?"
"Welcome! Please go wash your hands quickly."
"We're about to eat."
Uchiha Jin shrugged.
However.
Because he had spent enough time here, he naturally wasn't a stranger.
He went to wash his hands in the small courtyard, and Itachi naturally followed him.
After the two finished washing their hands and returned, Teuchi had already set the food on the table, and upon seeing them return, he raised his wine glass.
"Jin-kun, congratulations on becoming a ninja."
"Thank you, Uncle."
Just as the two clinked glasses, Ayame also raised her glass: "Me too!"
"Yes, that's right." Uchiha Jin said with a smile: "Thank you too, Ayame, you worked hard today."
Looking at Ayame, who was still wearing an apron, he naturally understood that Ayame must have been very busy helping him celebrate today.
Ayame had a proud expression.
But a moment later, she still spoke helplessly.
"Seriously, why must there be war?"
"I originally invited Minato-niisan and his three disciples today."
"But, unfortunately."
