Naruto: The Beautiful Uchiha is Actually Me?

Do you like Chapter 114?

Their eyes met...

It wouldn't be appropriate for Takita to pretend he didn't see it, especially given the current atmosphere... since their older brothers had this kind of relationship, Takita, as the younger brother, naturally wanted to try to ease the tension with that black-and-white-haired thousand-armed brat.

Watama and Hikaru were a little embarrassed as they let go of each other. Although they had just confessed their feelings to each other in the heat of the moment, their two younger brothers were watching.

Takita, being very self-aware, walked directly to Itama, tugged at Itama's hand as he was still deep in thought, and whispered, "Come with me! Don't just stand there..."

"Ah!" Itama snapped out of her daze, immediately pushing away the hand that was about to be taken, and nodded somewhat timidly, "I understand..."

Unfortunately, Takita didn't really want to interact with Itama, but he had to hold back so as not to make things difficult for his brother.

Itama blocked Takita's hand, only then realizing that he might have overreacted... He was gradually realizing that he couldn't let his brother suffer... He seemed to have acted immaturely again.

"I'm...I'm sorry..." Itama couldn't say anything, and could only apologize inexplicably.

After following Takita to the side, Takita said somewhat angrily, "Why do you always look so wronged? Yan Yi cares about you a lot, what's there to be wronged about..."

Itama was speechless. He could hear the sourness in Takita's words, but he had nothing to say in response. Compared to Takita's cheerful and lively personality, Itama did seem a bit weak and introverted.

"Sigh..." Takita plopped down on the ground, tugging at the corner of the board's clothes, signaling him to sit down as well.

After the two boys, whose relationship was hardly good, sat side by side, Takita finally started trying to find something to talk about...

"Um, you know, I really like Yan Yi, you know? Like, the kind of relationship between my brother and your brother..." Takita cut to the chase, stating his thoughts directly. He wanted to observe what kind of feelings this guy had for Yan Yi. Could this also be considered... a way to clear up the enemy's situation?

"..."

Itama was stunned by Takita's words and glanced at the blue-gray-haired boy beside him with a complicated look in his eyes.

So that's it... This young clan leader really likes Yan Yi, but what about me? I don't even know if I like him or not. I always thought that I and Yan Yi were just very close friends, but now, after hearing what Takita said, I feel that it might be more than that.

"Give me some feedback..." Takita said, his head down, his tone somewhat dejected.

The sound came from Banma, who was speaking softly, fidgeting with his fingers as he casually replied, "I don't know what to say..."

“You… I’m not telling you this to make any stance clear. I’m not qualified to let Yan Yi fall in love with me…” Takita said, his tone becoming even more uneasy. “I can tell that Yan Yi’s feelings for me are just friendly, but he probably has different feelings for you.”

Itama was stunned. Was this how Yan Yi was perceived from the perspective of this young clan leader?

"But I..."

Itama stammered, which made Takita even angrier!

How did this guy manage to get Yan Yi's attention? But Yan Yi really cares about this guy, and even I can tell that Yan Yi probably likes him a lot!

Takita didn't know, and he didn't want to say anything like "You should back out," because he liked Yan Yi, really liked him, ever since he first met him, but...

The more he liked her, the less he could bear to see Yan Yi sad. He was forcing himself to see things from Yan Yi's perspective. He wanted Yan Yi to truly like him back, but it seemed he no longer had that chance.

"I'll just ask you one question! Do you like Yan Yi?"

Takita wasn't going to waste his breath on him. If he said he didn't like it, then Takita wouldn't have to struggle with it anymore. He would give his all to truly win Yan Yi's affection for him.

Itama's eyes darted around, and he seemed hesitant to look the other person in the eye.

He was indeed very weak, he realized it himself... Even now, when he heard Takita say that he liked Genichi, he actually felt a particularly sad feeling in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it.

"Look me in the eyes! Tell the truth!" Takita put his hand on Itama's shoulder and looked seriously at the black-and-white-haired boy.

Do you like it...?

In an instant, Itama recalled so many things... from the first time they met, from finding the little boy who couldn't move and was crying because he had twisted his ankle at the bottom of that small hill, to the little boy whose face was red and feverish that she had held in the cave.

Later, after he was arrested, a little boy often took care of him, helping him bathe, bringing him delicious food, and chatting with him...

During that dark period, with her hands and feet bound and her heart closed off... Itama really felt that she couldn't live without him, and even developed that strange feeling.

Slowly raising her head, Itama looked directly at Takita beside her, her previous weakness gone, and said with unprecedented firmness, "I like him! I like Genichi, he is very, very important to me!"

"Is that so... I understand..." Upon hearing this, Takita's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

It was only for a fleeting moment, really. After all, Takita was still somewhat unwilling to accept it. He loved Genichi, and he had the right to pursue happiness...

After saying that, Itama's face turned bright red instantly.

Although he was forced to this point by Takita, this was indeed the true feeling he finally found in his heart after hesitating!

I like... I want to get closer to her, I want Yan to belong to me alone, to be with me only!

"But...why..." Itama asked.

After all, Taki could have directly told him not to have any ulterior motives and to cut off his thoughts beforehand, but he...

Takita looked distressed, his beautiful blue-gray hair a mess from his rubbing... He wanted to be selfish too, and thought about letting this guy disappear from Yan Yi's sight, but that wouldn't be fair to Yan Yi!

I won't win because of this...

"You! Senju Itama, right? Go confess to Yan Yi! Take the initiative! Let Yan Yi make his own decision. If he chooses you... I have nothing to say."

When Takita said those words, he had already turned his face away, but his tone... and the few drops of clear liquid dripping from the edge of his cheek, completely betrayed his feelings.

Itama felt a pang of pain in his heart. Hagoromo Takita... could he really do this? Seeing Takita silently wiping away his tears, Itama even felt that he really...

Describing Takita as pitiful would be an insult to him. Now that he's offering to put him on the same starting line, it's something Itama will find very difficult to accept...

"I understand... Thank you, Takita."

"Shut up! Don't thank me, I don't need your pity... even though I know I don't stand a chance. But Yan Yi, I want him to be happy, I want him to live a happy life..." Takita didn't turn around, but his back view was more desolate than ever before.

"You can go now... From now on, we should be friends in front of our brothers."
