"Thank you, senior, but you and I are not familiar with each other, so I'd better wait until I go back and ask my father for his advice." Itachi thought for a while and said.

Itachi originally wanted to refuse, but he didn't know the strange man in front of him, so even if he showed great strength, he had no idea.

However, Itachi was afraid that Nagazawa would be unhappy, so he chose to use a more tactful expression.

"It's okay, you should think about it carefully, but even if you are not my disciple, I will leave that ninjutsu to you, and you must do what you say."

Nagaze also saw that Itachi seemed a little reluctant, but he didn't care too much, and smiled and said.

Immediately afterwards, Nagazawa grabbed Itachi's arm and prepared to use Flying Thunder God again to bring Itachi near the dango shop.

This time Itachi concentrated and stared at Nagazawa intently, preparing to see how Nagazawa did it.

But before Itachi could understand anything, the scene in front of him suddenly changed, and he returned to that familiar street.

Itachi was confused, he didn't see Nagaze make any special move, why did he come back suddenly.

However, Itachi is certain of one fact, that is, Nagazawa's unscientific top speed is not achieved by running.

As for how Nagaze did it, Itachi didn't know. He encountered a blind spot in his own knowledge.

"Meet me at the dumpling shop at seven o'clock the day after tomorrow, and I will teach you ninjutsu." Nagazawa only left Itachi with a handsome back, and then disappeared.

'What a weirdo.' Itachi thought.

Just now he was about to say that there was no need to teach that ninjutsu, but before he could speak, Nagaze disappeared.

And I haven't told him his name yet.

Itachi shook his head, turned back to the dumpling shop and bought a portion of dumplings.

In the process of buying dumplings, Itachi suddenly had an idea. That person should be a regular customer of this store, and maybe the boss knew his name.

"Boss, do you know the name of the brother just now?" Itachi asked Boss Watanabe.

"That brother just now? You're talking about Yongze, right? Don't you know him?"

Boss Watanabe handed the dumplings to Itachi and said casually that when he saw Itachi walking up to Nagazawa just now, he thought the two knew each other and were related to each other.

Itachi and Nagazawa were the only two people to buy it just now, so it could only be Nagazawa.

"Ah? Nagazawa?" When Itachi heard the word Nagazawa, he didn't react at first, but he soon thought that this was not the current Hokage assistant, Kabuto Nagazawa, the one he wanted to see the most.

The man's name?

"Just Nagazawa." Boss Watanabe saw that Itachi was still not picking up the dumplings, and was a little confused as to why the kid was so surprised.

"Is it that Nagaze?" Itachi couldn't help but ask, his eyes widened and his face was full of shock.

This news was really shocking to him.

It turned out that Nagaze, whom he had always longed to meet, had actually met him two years ago, and even told him his views on desire.

He even saw it not only once, but also at the birth party of his younger brother Uchiha Sasuke.

"Even if you say that, I don't know who you are talking about is Nagazawa. I only know him as Nagazawa." Boss Watanabe scratched his head and said.

Itachi:……

He was going to be confused by his boss, this Nagazawa, that Nagazawa, and the other Nagazawa. Are there many Nagazawa in Konoha?

'Maybe, it's just the same name.' Itachi thought to himself while holding on to his luck.

After all, there are hundreds of millions of differences between the Nagaze he met and the Nagaze he heard and imagined.

The Nagaze he met didn't seem very reliable.

Out of nowhere, he handed a dumpling to a kid he didn't know and asked him to eat dumplings. He also said that the dumplings from another store were more delicious. If he went to eat, he could tell his name, and the boss would show his true strength, but he didn't say his name.

Then he took the kid out into the wild and offered to treat him to some dumplings. After that, he would teach him ninjutsu. The key was that he actually taught him ninjutsu. Ninjutsu is really a powerful ninjutsu.

How unreliable is this to do something like this?

The Nagazawa he imagined was a man of extraordinary strength, a man of all plans, gentle to others, who inherited the will of fire from his ancestors, and was the most reliable person in Konoha.

This is not his imagination, it is collected from the opinions of people around him about Nagaze.

Suppressing the Nine-Tails Rebellion proved Nagazawa's superior strength.

Captain Nagazawa is always thinking about how to strengthen Konoha, and he is very concerned about the training results of every member. This is Shisui's evaluation of Nagazawa, which proves that Nagazawa has inherited the will of fire.

There are many other people who also have positive comments about Nagazawa, such as Kabuto.

Even his father, Uchiha Fugaku, praised Nagazawa as a ninja destined to become a legend.

This series of comments made Itachi yearn for Nagazawa very much, and he was recognized by so many people, including his most trusted senior Uchiha Shisui, his good friend Kabuto Yakushi, and his father Uchiha Fugaku.

Such a Nagazawa must be a very good and reliable person, Itachi felt this from the bottom of his heart.

So Itachi really wanted to ask Nagazawa about his views on war, how to become stronger, and whether individual efforts can eliminate war.

But if it was the Nagazawa he met just now, Itachi doubted whether the other party could give a good answer.

"Kid, do you want any more dumplings?" Boss Watanabe reminded him when he saw Itachi was in a daze and refused to pick up the dumplings.

"Sorry, I was distracted." Itachi, whose thoughts were interrupted, quickly gathered his thoughts, apologized to Boss Watanabe, then took the dumplings and walked out of the dumpling shop.

If it were normal times, Itachi would definitely have to find a deserted place to taste delicious dumplings.

But now his thoughts were all about whether the Nagazawa just now was the Hokage who assisted Nagazawa, whether he was Kabuto's brother, the reliable senior that Shisui said.

'Let's ask Kabuto when he practices later and ask his brother if he likes eating dumplings.' Itachi thought with a heavy heart.

In fact, he already had an answer in his mind.

At Sasuke's banquet, the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato was sitting next to Nagazawa.

It's just that this answer is a bit cruel, and Itachi doesn't want to reveal it.

If it is true, then what did he do to reject the ninja disciple he most yearned for?

Thinking of this, Itachi felt that the dumplings in his hand seemed to have lost their charm, and he couldn't help but sigh.

…………………………

After leaving the dumpling shop, Nagaze found a deserted place to sit and finish eating the dumplings, then walked towards the Hokage Building.

However, he did not walk into the Hokage's office, nor into his own office, but into the office of the Third Hokage.

Didn't he say before that he would ask the third generation to help guide Kabuto's Fengdun? This was his purpose.

Anyway, Sandai has been very busy recently, so I found something to do for him, so I don’t have to look bitter all day long to remember the days when I worked hard with my old classmates.

Yongze knocked on the door first.

"Enter."

After the knock on the door, Sandai's voice came out quickly.

"Oh, it's Nagaze." Sandai was a little surprised when he saw it was Nagaze who came in.

Although the two are on the same floor, they don't interact much, so they can only chat together when senior executives have meetings together.

Because Nagazawa didn't have much time to come to the Hokage Building. In the Hokage Building, he was either dealing with documents or going to discuss things with Minato, so he had no time to chat with the third generation.

"Sandaime." Nagazawa said hello to Sandaime.

"Nagaze, what's the matter with you?" Sandai nodded and asked.

"I want to ask you, Sandaime, for a favor. I wonder if you, Sandaime, are free?" Nagazawa asked directly without making any pretense.

Sandai took a long puff of cigarette and exhaled a large amount of white mist. He said with a smile: "Tell me, I'm a little curious. There is something that can stump you, Nagaze, and you come to ask me, an old man, for help."

After experiencing the last Nine-Tails Rebellion, Nagazawa refreshed his image in the Sandaime's mind. Not only his strength, but also the Third Generation recognized Nagazawa's will of fire.

Facing danger, Nagaze rushed to the front, and all the enemy's large-scale ninjutsu were teleported away by Nagaze using the Flying Thunder God.

At the critical moment when Kyuubi destroyed the village, it was Nagaze who arrived in time to reverse the situation of the battle.

With people like Minato and Nagazawa in charge of Konoha, the third generation felt very relieved.

"No, the Sandaime is not old and is still in his prime. If the opponent is you, I won't dare to take it easy. If I make the slightest mistake, I will be defeated." After all, he was asking for help, so Nagaze also gave the Sandaime a little bragging.

When Sandai heard Nagaze's words, he couldn't help but touch his mustache and laughed.

If it were a compliment from an ordinary person, the Sandaime would naturally not feel it, because it was a matter of course, and his strength, prestige and achievements deserved to be complimented.

But if that person can easily defeat the Kyuubi and suppress a Kumogakure unit including the Raikage and the Eight-Tails by himself, then the Third Generation will feel very comfortable and useful.

"If I can help, then I will try my best to help." The Sandaime said with a kind smile.

"It's just a small thing. It should be easy for the Sandaime. After all, you are very good at this."

"Oh, what exactly is it?" The Sandaime became a little interested.

If Yongze needs to ask from him, it means that Yongze is not good at it. He is good at it. Is it a matter of government affairs?

"I have a younger brother who has hit a bottleneck in his Fengdun practice recently, and I am not good at Fengdun.

So I thought that the Sandaime's proficiency in the five changes in chakra properties should enable him to break through the bottleneck as soon as possible, so I wanted you to teach him for some time." Nagaze said the purpose of his coming.

"Teach your brother Wind Release..." The Sandaime fell into deep thought.

Nagazawa said that this is what he is good at, which is correct. After all, he taught the famous Sannin of Konoha in the ninja world. It is completely okay to say that he can teach his disciples.
