Vol.25 Chapter 223 – Sasuke and his Father

Sasuke thought about the tension that had arisen between Itachi and Fugaku, wondering what could have ruined Itachi’s position among the Uchi. From that moment on, however, Fugaku became interested in Sasuke’s development. After he taught Sasuke the Great Fireball Technique in less time than it took to teach Itachi, Fugaku said he was proud of Sasuke for the first time. He added that Sasuke should no longer try to follow in Itachi’s footsteps. Sasuke nevertheless continued to idolize Itachi.
