Chapter 826: Sasuke's Behavior at School Shocks Mikoto

Uchiha Clan Head’s mansion.

After returning home, Sasuke locked himself in his bedroom and refused to come out, no matter how much Mikoto called him.

At this moment, Iruka came to visit.

“Iruka-sensei, please come in.”

Mikoto knew Iruka, so she politely invited him into the living room. After serving some tea, she couldn’t help asking, “Iruka-sensei, did Sasuke cause trouble at the Academy? He locked himself in the house and refused to come out as soon as he came back.”

Iruka put down the tea cup and said, “It seems that Sasuke’s mother still doesn’t know yet, then let me just say it. In this afternoon's actual combat class, Sasuke sparred with Naruto and… lost.”

“Lost?”

Mikoto blinked her eyes twice, feeling incredulous.

It should be noted that her precious son has already awakened the 2-Tomoe Sharingan, he’s a super genius!

With his TaiTechnique, he can already compete with Genin-level Shinobi, so how could he lose to the student of the same grade?

Moreover, the opponent is Naruto.

She doesn't look down on Naruto, but as a good friend of Kushina, Mikoto has heard her complain about Naruto's mischief and troublemaking, so in Mikoto's impression, Naruto is the representative of naughty children. How could such a child defeat her genius son?

“Iruka-sensei, there is something you may not know yet. In fact, Sasuke has already awakened his Sharingan.” Mikoto felt that there was a misunderstanding, so she casually reminded Iruka.

However…

“2-Tomoe Sharingan.” Iruka nodded and said, “Sasuke’s talent is very remarkable. I believe that among Uchiha Clan, there are only Shisui and Itachi, whose talent can surpass his.”

‘Iruka-sensei already knew?’

‘That means… Naruto defeated Sasuke who used his 2-Tomoe Sharingan?’

“How did Naruto do it?” Mikoto curiously asked.

Although she feels a little sorry for Sasuke, she doesn't have any jealous or hateful thoughts in her heart. It can be seen that she is indeed a gentle and kind woman.

“Naruto has mastered the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.” Iruka did not hide it. After all, there were many people present at that time, and Sasuke was also involved in persons, so there was no need to hide it.

“Multiple Shadow Clone Technique?” Mikoto was startled.

This is a Forbidden Technique. Without a huge amount of Chakra, one can’t successfully use it. If they forcefully use it, they will even endanger their life!

‘Naruto…’

‘That’s right, it almost slipped my mind that Kushina is a Uzumaki Clan’s member. Naruto must have inherited the Uzumaki Clan’s physique, so at such a young age, he already has a huge amount of Chakra.’

Mikoto suddenly realized and asked: “So Naruto defeated Sasuke with a large number of shadow clones?”

Iruka nodded: “Yes, Sasuke was besieged by Naruto's shadow clones and finally exhausted and defeated.”

Mikoto sighed and said: “No wonder Sasuke locked himself in the house after returning. He must be feeling uncomfortable, this child.”

As soon as Iruka heard this, his expression became serious, and he went straight to the subject: “Sasuke’s mother, in fact, the real purpose of my home visit this time is related to Sasuke's mentality.”

‘Sasuke’s mentality?’

“Iruka-sensei, please rest assured, I will properly guide him.” Mikoto said with a smile.

Iruka shook his head and said with a solemn expression: “Sasuke’s mother, maybe…you don’t really understand Sasuke enough.”

“Huh?” Mikoto stared at Iruka in bewilderment, ‘How could I not understand my own child?’

“Although this is a bit offensive to say, but it is indeed the case. Many mothers actually do not really enter their children's hearts, so naturally, they do not know what their children are really thinking.” Iruka said earnestly.

Hearing this, Mikoto showed a thoughtful expression. She thought of her eldest son, Itachi. During the long period of Shisui’s ‘defection’, Mikoto could clearly feel that there was a gap between herself and Itachi that she could not cross, she couldn't get into Itachi's heart and couldn’t see what Itachi was thinking, so she could only stand by and silently take care of him.

Although this gap disappeared after Shisui’s return, this matter has always been a thorn in her heart.

‘Could it be… a gap is also appearing between Sasuke and me?’

Mikoto said nervously: “Iruka-sensei, please be sure to tell me Sasuke's mentality problem, I want to know.”

‘She really is a gentle mother…’ After organizing his words, Iruka said: “The biggest problem with Sasuke’s mentality is… he values the pride of the Uchiha Clan too much.”

Mikoto was stunned: “Our clan… pride?”

Iruka nodded, explained: “Because he values the pride of the Uchiha Clan too much, Sasuke is too prideful at the Academy. This pride makes him think that he is superior to others, makes him look down on classmates who are not from the Uchiha Clan, makes him accustomed to show-off when facing any classmates, and makes him always look… arrogant.”

Mikoto was at a loss upon hearing this.

‘Superior?’

‘Look down on others?’

‘Showing-off?’

‘Arrogant?’

Mikoto couldn't imagine that her son would be like that in the Academy!

‘Just a few days ago, Sasuke still called Big brother all day long, Big brother, hug and lift me high, Big brother, train with me, Big Brother, play with me, Mother, I’m hungry, I want to eat Bonito Onigiri and Tomatoes How could he turn into this at the Academy…’

“Sasuke’s mother, do you find it hard to believe?” Iruka asked.

“I, I…” Mikoto didn’t know what to say.

If the person in front of her is not Sasuke’s homeroom teacher, she would have thought the other party was trying to fool her.

Iruka continued: “Today, when Sasuke sparred with Naruto, Sasuke exhausted his strength and was defeated in front of his classmates. This is just an ordinary sparring, but Sasuke, who is too prideful, cannot accept this reality, so he pretended to be unconscious, thus avoiding the gaze of other classmates.”

‘Pretend to be unconscious…’ Mikoto was shocked, thinking that Sasuke must be helpless at that time, and immediately felt hot on her face. As Iruka said, the spar in the actual combat class is normal regardless of victory or defeat. Everything is over after forming Unison Sign, but Sasuke actually chooses to pretend to be unconscious.

“Sasuke’s mother, Sasuke’s mentality problem is urgent! Unfortunately, I found that Sasuke seems to look down on me as a teacher, so guiding Sasuke’s mentality is something that only you, as a mother, can do.” Iruka got up and bowed, “Please.”

“Iruka-sensei, you are too polite. It is I who should thank you instead. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn't have known that Sasuke had such a big problem.” Mikoto also got up and bowed, “Iruka-sensei, thank you very much!”

At this moment, Fugaku came in from the entrance and happened to see the two people bowing to each other.

“Fugaku, you’re back.” Mikoto hurriedly ran over when she saw the person coming.

“Advisor-sama.”

Iruka bowed his head slightly and said, “Sasuke’s mother, then I'll leave now. I'll leave the rest to you.”

After Iruka left, Fugaku sat on the sofa expressionlessly and asked: “Who is he?”

Mikoto replied: “It’s Sasuke’s homeroom teacher, Iruka.”

Then she told him what Iruka had told her without omission and in detail.

Fugaku frowned upon hearing this: “So you’re saying that Naruto, the son of Yondaime, defeated Sasuke?”

‘And it was when Sasuke had already used his 2-Tomoe Sharingan?’

Facing Fugaku's shock, Mikoto was unusually angry: “Fugaku, don't you pay attention to the main points? There’s a problem with Sasuke’s mentality!”

“As a Uchiha Clan’s member, carrying the pride of Uchiha Clan is a natural matter.” Fugaku said calmly, “Moreover, although Sasuke is indifferent in front of others, he’s showing his true innocent nature at home. This is a sign of maturity.”

Mikoto frowned, staring at Fugaku without saying anything.

“Cough.”

Fugaku coughed slightly and said, “Sasuke likes Itachi the most. If there really is a problem, let Itachi guide him.”

Mikoto finally smiled and said, “Then it's settled.”
