The next day, Aoba, who had had a good night's rest, met up with the others in Mikawa Team, and then began to receive the village's praise for their contribution.
In addition to verbal rewards, there were also very affordable material rewards.
Aoba decisively chose the Shadow Clone Technique, as well as the chakra nature change, as well as the handwritten copy left behind by, the 2nd Hokage.
In fact, at the beginning, he wanted to choose a few relatively powerful long-range ninjutsu to enrich his attack section.
However, among the ninjutsu that Konoha had collected, Fire Release had the most, and he had the least lightning.
Earth Release had many choices, especially Sarutobi, who was a doctor of ninjutsu, who had deep attainments in Earth Release's field of view, and could give him some pointers.
But his family knew that Akatsuki was his own family, and his talent in ninjutsu could be described as 'mediocre'.
His current strength basically relied on crazy death and hard work to get himself to death.
For other people, personally teaching him was definitely a benefit and honor that could not be obtained.
But for him, it was not a big deal, and it was easy to expose his identity as a bad student.
Aoba did not want his 'genius' halo to be destroyed because of such a small matter.
Therefore, instead of wasting a lot of energy in areas that he was not good at, it was better to just assume his title as a genius and study Kekkei Genkai.
Coincidentally, he was also very interested in Kekkei Genkai, who was able to fuse his lightning and earth attributes.
In any case, he just wanted to try his luck, if he saw a ghost, he would really succeed!
As for Shadow Clone Technique, which was a necessary cheat artifact for a transmigrator, he naturally would not let it go.
After all, due to the rules, Itachi had no way to teach him before.
However, now that he had obtained the Shadow Clone Technique, he would be able to learn it sooner or later.
He wasn't sure what reward Mikawa-sensei and Itachi wanted, but Gekkou Hayate had also chosen the Shadow Clone Technique. This technique was very compatible with him, but he didn't know if the clone could use Escape Technique. If it could, Hayate's combat strength would soar!
After choosing the reward, Aoba and the others left in satisfaction.
Mikawa-sensei had already arranged for people to drink together, so even though it was not time for horse to eat, he left in a hurry, making people wonder where they were drinking.
Could it be that in order to welcome the return of the heroes, some places that would be harmonious would also open so early?
Or maybe there would be discounts?
Aoba and the other two were not interested in the gathering activities between those old men.
"There are only the three of us left. Are we going to train the newly obtained ninjutsu or find a place to relax?"
"Let's forget about training. Anyway, this day is not far away." Gekko Hayate could not help but complain. He had already worked hard enough, but compared to these two freaks, it was really not enough. Moreover, his physical condition was not enough to support a very high intensity training.
Itachi hesitated for a moment and said, "Sasuke is still waiting for me at home."
Aoba and Hayate immediately covered their foreheads speechlessly. Everyone knew that you were a disciple complex, but there was no need for this.
"Why don't we bring Sasuke along? We can walk around the village. Maybe we can even hunt and make a picnic or something." Hayate suggested.
Aoba touched his smooth chin, "I think it's not bad. Take Sasuke with you and I'll go pick up Naruto so that the two of them can have a companion."
Only then did Itachi nod his head. He felt that this suggestion was not bad. Sasuke was indeed a little too clingy now. Although he did not dislike Sasuke being like this, in the end, Sasuke still needed his peers and playmates, not being his follower all day long.
And Aoba's suggestion was actually to probe, wanting to see what the bottom line of Sarutobi and the rest of Konoha's higher-ups was.
After all, Naruto would grow up sooner or later, and as Kyuubi Jinchuriki, Naruto had to walk the path of ninja.
Even Sarutobi would not allow Naruto to not contact anyone.
In the original work, didn't Naruto also go to the Ninja School, and he was also assigned to the same class as Sasuke.
It had to be known that at that time, Uchiha hadn't been exterminated. It was only when Sasuke happily took first place in the school in the first exam that Itachi launched the extermination operation.
Therefore, Aoba felt that it was necessary for him to understand how much the village feared Uchiha Clan at this time.
It was simply playing with fire for Naruto, who was Kyuubi, to have contact with the people of Uchiha Clan.
It was no longer as simple as touching the sensitive nerves in some people's brains, but pulling out the whole chicken to play - You are too beautiful!
Aoba was very curious about Sarutobi's reaction.
After settling the itinerary, the three of them moved separately. Aoba and Itachi went to pick up Naruto and Sasuke respectively. The poor Gekko Hayate did not have a younger brother or sister, so he could only go home and prepare pots and pans to spice things up. Today, whether everyone had a good meal or not depended on him.
Logically, it was impossible for the Anbu members stationed around Naruto's house not to know who they were going to see and what they were going to do next.
However, no one came out to stop Aoba until he successfully met up with Itachi and Sasuke with a curious and excited look on his face.
Was he going to wait and see, or did he not want to attract too much attention and expose Naruto's uniqueness?
Aoba was uncertain, but since Sarutobi did not stop him from bringing Naruto out to play, then it was a good thing.
Anyway, he did not want to do anything, and it was impossible for him to harm Naruto.
Could it be that Sarutobi trusted him very much?
Aoba's expression immediately became very strange.
The two people who took the baby over did not wait for long before Gekko Hayate arrived as if he was moving.
"We are going to have a picnic, not a war. Aren't you exaggerating a little too much?" Looking at the big and small bags in Hayate's hands, Aoba was very speechless.
"It's rare that both of you brought your family here, so I prepared more. I will show you later." Hayate smiled embarrassedly.
Hearing the word "family", little Naruto twisted his body a little nervously. However, when Aoba touched his head with a smile, little Naruto immediately became happy.
Yes, Big Brother Aoba is my family!
"You know how to cook? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"I've decocted a lot of medicine. It's almost the same."
Although the smile on Gekko Hayate's face was very bright at this moment, Aoba and Itachi could hear the sadness and unwillingness in it.
"Why are you all pulling a face? Hurry up and divide the things. You won't bully a sick person like me and let me take so many things by myself, right?"
"Ya, Naruto, why are you running so fast? Wait for me!"
Naruto was dragged away by Aoba with a confused face.
"En? A match of speed? Very good! I, Uchiha Itachi, will accept this match! Hold me tight, Sasuke!"
With a whoosh, Itachi also disappeared.
