60 Accepting Disciples (Part Two)

Fugaku turned towards his son Sasuke, who was listening to their conversation from the kitchen and called him over.

"Sasuke come here."

He laid his hand on Sasuke's shoulder and pointed at Takashi.

"This is Lord Takashi, a very powerful ninja. He wants to accept you as a disciple. You have to accept and behave well, then in the future, you will also be able to become very powerful, much stronger than me and your brother."

Sasuke had already heard them talking about this topic before and was still a little unbelievable. Someone even his father has to respect must be very powerful and he is happy to be the disciple of such a ninja, but he is a bit confused about why Takashi would choose him and not his brother Itachi. After all, in his current cognition, his brother crushes him in all aspects, he can't even get his father's approval, because the difference between him and Itachi is so big.

Although Sasuke was confused, he still obeyed his father's words and walked near Takashi.

"Hello Sasuke, as your father said I want to accept you as my disciple. But before you answer, if you accept you will definitely become powerful beyond your imagination, but you will have to follow me, so you won't be able to meet your parents and your brother often. Are you still willing?"

'Sasuke as a child is really cute. The Tsukuyomi torture Itachi put him through really messed up his mental health.'

Sasuke was a bit hesitant when he heard that he won't be able to meet his family often and looked at his father. Fugaku was frantically nodding his head, urging him to accept, even Mikoto had walked into the room and was encouraging him to agree. Seeing the actions of both his parents, Sasuke didn't hesitate any more and spoke to Takashi.

"Takashi-sensei I would like to become your disciple please."

Takashi smiled at him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, come with me then. You can also meet the disciple Madara will accept."

Madara, who had been silent the whole time, also spoke up at this moment.

"Why exactly do I get the Asura reincarnation? He is probably the same kind of idiot as Hashirama. Isn't it more suitable for me to teach Sasuke?"

"No, Naruto is not like Hashirama."

Seeing that Takashi denied his conjecture, Madara was a little surprised. Takashi had told him that both Indra and Asura will interfere with the will of the individual, so he had thought that Naruto would be a goody-two-shoes mega-idiot like Hashirama. But before he could be happy, Takashi's voice sounded again.

"Naruto's brain is worse than Hashirama's."

Abruptly standing up Madara shouted in disbelief.

"How is this even possible?! Does someone more stupid than Hashirama actually exist?"

Fugaku was stunned when he saw Madara's behaviour. Since he came in here Madara has been silent and cold, looking at him as if he was a small bug, why did he suddenly lose his calm like this?

"Takashi! If he really is that stupid, doesn't it mean that he basically mentally retarded? Why do you want me to accept a mentally handicapped person as my heir?"

"Madara calm down, you are used to dealing with idiots anyway, why do you care so much?"

Madara wanted to deny it, but the more he thought about it and the more he found that Takashi's words seem to be reasonable.

Hashirama, Uchiha's with mental problems during his time as the clan patriarch and Uchiha Obito, who brought the meaning of being mental to a new height by his own efforts, he really has an impressive history with dumbasses.

'Takashi is right! With my experience in dealing with people who have negative IQ, there really is no problem with accepting that child Naruto as my disciple...'

"Okay, let's look for Naruto now, I want to meet that boy."

Originally Takashi thought it would be more difficult to persuade Madara.

'That's good. I like Sasuke's character much more than Naruto's.'

"By the way Fugaku, where is your other son?"

"He is on a mission, but if Lord Takashi wants, I will send someone to call him back as fast as possible."

Shaking his head, Takashi indicated that it's unnecessary. He really doesn't want to meet Itachi, when the questions about the Uchiha massacre appear, Itachi will get what he deserves anyway. Then he saw that Madara had already stood up, ready to leave here and spoke to the family.

"Fugaku, Mikoto we are leaving now. Sasuke come with me now."

Sasuke followed behind him but looked a little sad.

"There is no need to be sad Sasuke- Just think about it, the next time you come home, you will be an extremely powerful ninja and your parents will be proud of you."

Mikoto walked toward Sasuke, gave him a hug and comforted him.

"Lord Takashi is right, Sasuke. Remember to train well and be obedient to your teacher, mom will miss you."

"Sasuke cherish this opportunity and become a ninja I can be proud of."

Sasuke wiped away his tears and promised his parents.

"I will!"

Madara was a little impatient, because of their actions, but didn't interrupt. But his expression was a clear signal to Fugaku and he immediately let Sasuke go.

Looking at the stern but deeply worried Fugaku, Takashi couldn't help but think of a saying.

'A father's love is like a mountain.'

Takashi controlled Sasuke with his telekinesis and disappeared from his position instantly, followed by Madara. Leaving the sad Mikoto, who was being hugged and comforted by Fugaku.

"Mikoto, this is a good opportunity for Sasuke and we will see him again soon. Don't be so sad."

"I know..."
