Chapter 252: Itachi-San, Let Me Tell You a Story Too!
There was nothing wrong with Itachi’s analysis.
The only thing that was not clear was that Uehara’s goal was not to get Kotoamatsukami but to completely destroy the two Kotoamatsukami’s Mangekyo Sharingan.
The strength of Uehara would definitely become stronger and stronger, sooner or later, no one in the entire world would be his opponent. Uehara also did not want to have such a dangerous ability in the world.
Moreover, Uehara wanted to treat Sasuke as a contractor who provided the progress of his main mission, no matter what, he had to use Sasuke for a period of time, how could he let Sasuke be arranged by Itachi!
In the world of ninjas, only the real mastermind could arrange others’ fate.
This mastermind could only be Uehara himself.
Itachi looked at Uehara who was gently clapping his hands. His eyes were slightly dim, “I have to say, I am very curious about your intelligence channels. Unfortunately, Kotoamatsukami’s Mangekyo Sharingan has already been destroyed by me…”
“Then there is no other way.”
Uehara clapped his hands towards everyone and said with a smile, “Hey, everyone, since Itachi-san has already destroyed Kotoamatsukami’s Sharingan, then do you think there is any meaning for us to keep Sasuke?”
“Hehehe…”
Obito’s gloomy laughter fell into everyone’s ears. He said coldly, “Of course it’s meaningless! We are not an orphanage or shelter!”
“It’s not good to insult an orphanage, is it?”
Kabuto pushed his glasses and rebuked Obito. Then he looked up at Itachi and chuckled, “Maybe there is something you don’t know. Your Mangekyo Sharingan is also in my hands, and Sasuke is still waiting for me to transplant it for him!”
After saying that, Kabuto took out a small bottle with two eyes from his pocket and slowly shook it at Itachi.
Kabuto’s movement was like shaking a potion.
A potion that could break through the defense of Itachi’s heart.
Itachi’s complexion suddenly became somewhat unsightly. That was the Mangekyo Sharingan he had left behind, and also the power that Sasuke would use to be able to stand at the apex of the world of ninjas in the future!
What exactly was going on with his younger brother?
Itachi frowned, and said in a low voice, “It seems that it was you who stole my Sharingan and lured Sasuke to join?”
“No, what should I say?”
Kisame rubbed his brows and raised his head to look at Itachi, “Itachi-san’s younger brother’s brain is really a bit abnormal. After Itachi-san died, Sasuke actually entrusted all of his future to us.”
“And the time…”
The smile on Kabuto’s face was very shallow, but with a touch of extreme confidence, “It was only a few hours before Itachi-san died. We didn’t even try to persuade him. Sasuke decided to join us to destroy Konoha.”
“Hey, Kabuto, I’ve been persuading him for a few hours!”
After Uehara frowned and refuted Kabuto, he looked at Itachi and chuckled, “Unfortunately, I have been trying to persuade him to go back to Konoha to live peacefully. I didn’t expect Sasuke to insist on joining us…”
The smile on Uehara’s face gradually became a little proud, “He is simply like an orphan who has no home to find a place to rest. He can’t be driven away. He insisted on following us, inheriting your so-called last wish, and going with us to destroy this rotten world.”
“…”
Kisame, “…”
Naraku-sama, don’t you know why that little fellow Sasuke refused to leave?
With your methods, no one in the world can escape, right?
The words that Uehara persuaded Sasuke, even a sensible person like Kisame almost doubted life. Even Kabuto, a well-known spy, had not seen such a magical operation.
When Itachi heard Uehara’s words, his expression became even uglier. What was going on with his younger brother? Why did he have to believe this group of fellows!
And why did he have to hand over his brother’s eyes to others for safekeeping!
If it were possible,
Itachi really wanted to rush over and snatch the eyes back, but unfortunately, his body was controlled by Kabuto and could not move.
At this time, Itachi could not help but think of Kotoamatsukami who he hide in Naruto’s stomach. If Kotoamatsukami could change his will now, he might be able to break free and fight.
Unfortunately, that Kotoamatsukami was not here!
Uehara looked at Itachi’s face and suddenly said, “Itachi-san, don’t hold your thoughts in your heart. If there is anything unhappy, just say it. Maybe what other people encounter is worse than yours?”
Uehara stretched out his finger and pointed at himself with a smile, “Just like how I was in a bad mood on the way here just now. But after seeing you, I felt much better…”
“…”
Itachi was very calm.
Compared to the other people’s expressions of helplessness and astonishment, Itachi still had that calm expression on his face.
In the face of Uehara’s ridicule, there was no point in arguing with him.
Now, he had to gather information!
As long as he gathered enough information, Itachi believed that he would be able to find a turning point. Perhaps he could persuade these guys to sincerely accept Sasuke?
As long as they believed that Sasuke’s strength could bring them benefits, then it was not necessarily a chance to turn the tables. Therefore, Itachi believed that he must first think of a way to let Sasuke obtain the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
“Forget it, let’s talk openly!”
The expression of Itachi gradually calmed down. He whispered, “I am somewhat curious, why did Sasuke choose to join you?”
“Huh?”
Uehara rubbed his forehead. He looked at Itachi and said, “What’s the problem? Why did Sasuke join us?”
Uehara seemed to see something happy. He smiled and said, “Of course it’s because… we are Itachi-san’s friends! We are Itachi-san’s best friends. We are even friends who care enough for Itachi-san to entrust his future affairs and his last words too!”
Itachi, “…”
What kind of nonsense was this!
How could he have such a group of bad friends!
Moreover, how could a person like him have friends?
Did Sasuke not think of this? As a person who had even slaughtered his own kin, how could he have any friends?
Unless… this group of people made up evidence that was no different from the truth!
“Itachi-san, haven’t you always loved to tell stories?”
Uehara waved his hand and created an ice chair. He leisurely sat on it and said with a relaxed smile, “Then let me tell you a story today! How about you listen to this story if it is qualified enough?”
“…”
Itachi’s heart sank bit by bit.
Uehara tilted his head and used his fist to support his face. He slightly narrowed his eyes, “Where should I start this story? Why don’t we start from eight years ago, because that is the source of the change in your brother’s fate?
Eight years ago, the Uchiha clan was still the most powerful Ninja clan in the Ninja world.
Unfortunately, the war in the Ninja world had ended, and the strength of the Uchiha clan had become a hidden danger in the village. Their existence had aroused the fear of the higher-ups of the village.
Although the Uchiha clan had always lived a life of standing aloof from worldly affairs, their clan was full of geniuses, and their Sharingan was the number one bloodline limit in the Ninja world. Their existence was the original sin.”
When Uehara’s story came to this point, he looked at the expressionless Itachi and continued to smile, “How is it? Is the role of the Uchiha clan in this story very innocent?”
“… I see.”
Itachi slowly nodded.
If Sasuke, who did not know the truth, heard Uehara’s story, he would indeed have the idea that Uchiha was innocent.
In this way, after the inherent concept fell.
Once Uehara talked about the persecution of the higher-ups of Konoha, it was easy to arouse the indignation of Sasuke.
Sure enough.
Uehara’s following story made people feel even more indignant.
“The higher-ups in the village realized that the power of Uchiha’s clan was flourishing. Sooner or later, they would replace their position. Therefore, the higher-ups decided to use the villagers to humiliate this group of Uchiha who valued their dignity.
The higher-ups of the village wanted to use this method to force these proud Uchiha to fight with the villagers and even resist the orders of the village. This way, they could have a legitimate reason to suppress them and completely destroy the entire Uchiha clan.”
After Uehara finished speaking, he looked at Itachi and smiled, “How is it? After listening to this, does Itachi-san also think that Konoha’s higher-ups are bad?”
“Your words are indeed very confusing.”
Itachi nodded silently and whispered, “Even I after I heard it couldn’t help but believe what you said might be the truth.”
“Because this is the truth.”
Uehara chuckled. He looked at Itachi and said, “Second Hokage Tobirama, personally made the policy to prevent you Uchiha from merging with Konoha. He hates you Uchiha to the bone!”
“…”
Itachi fell into silence again.
Uehara looked at the silent Itachi and suddenly smiled, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Next is the most exciting part of this story, because Itachi-san, your father and mother will play a very important role in it.
Just as the conflict between Konoha and Uchiha was getting more and more intense, Hiruzen and Danzo found a genius ninja of Uchiha. Coincidentally, this ninja had a weakness in his heart, and that was his younger brother, Sasuke, who he personally brought up.
Hiruzen and Danzo offer a price for protecting his younger brother, asking this genius ninja called Itachi to kill the Uchiha clan, otherwise, the entire Uchiha clan would be destroyed.
The moment the blood-colored moon shone down, the entire territory of Uchiha was covered in blood. Screams filled the air as corpses with scarlet eyes scattered on the ground.
After Hiruzen’s trusted aide, Obito, and the newly surrendered Itachi killed all of their kin, Itachi entered his own home and faced his parents, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto.”
“…”
Itachi’s expression changed.
Because what followed next was what he hated the most in his heart.
This was also the most difficult scar in Itachi’s heart to erase!
However, Uehara did not hesitate at all and continued, “Itachi suddenly discovered one thing, that is, his father Uchiha Fugaku also has Mangekyo Sharingan. He thought that a father and son war was about to begin.
Unexpectedly, after Fugaku and Mikoto learned the truth, they decided to let their son kill them without resistance and bet their lives on the future of their youngest son, Sasuke. “
“… Yes.”
After a moment of silence, Itachi slowly raised his head and said in a low voice, “I didn’t expect you people to be able to find out what happened that night.”
“There is nothing we can’t find out.”
Uehara narrowed his eyes, looked at Itachi, and continued to smile, “Next, the wonderful story has just begun, because we will soon see the great love of an elder brother to his younger brother.
Itachi learned the weakness of the Sharingan and the way to evolve it. He decided to use his own way to force his younger brother Sasuke to become stronger, so he chose to force and humiliate his younger brother against his own will, in order to let his younger brother awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan.
This matter is clearly very clear to all of us. Itachi-san does not need to argue, because the more exciting story is still to come. “
Itachi, “…”
These words are enough to make a lot of ups and downs…
How wonderful can other stories be?
Uehara looked at Itachi and slowly curled up the corners of his mouth, revealing a kind smile, “Because after slaughtering a clan, there was no place for Itachi to stay. After threatening the higher-ups to protect his younger brother with the secrets of the village, he joined an organization called Akatsuki with a young man named Uehara.”
“…”
Itachi suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Why did Uehara mention his name for no reason?
If Itachi felt that he had guessed correctly, his story should have made a big turn after this, right? How bad would the rest of the story be?
Sure enough, Uehara did not disappoint Itachi.
“Although Itachi and Uehara are similar in age, Itachi’s strength and experience are higher. Therefore, because Uehara respected him, he always wanted to be his friend and get his teachings.
Unfortunately, Itachi refused to contact anyone, and even refused to agree with Akatsuki’s goal. It was not until he found that some of the members of Akatsuki’s organization were also secretly harmed by the jealousy of the higher-ups of the village. He finally began to learn to communicate with people and gradually became friends.
Just as these friends intended to work hard to change this world, Itachi’s brother Sasuke defected to Konoha. In order to protect his brother, Itachi went to pull his brother who defected into the organization.
In order to protect his younger brother who had not yet grown up, Itachi decided to give up those dangerous thoughts and chose to distance himself from his friends.
When he was about to die, Itachi chose to return to his friends and entrusted them with his everything and his friends tearfully agreed.
Therefore, after Itachi died in battle, his best friend Uehara told Sasuke all the truth and would choose to help him transplant Itachi’s Mangekyo Sharingan so that Sasuke could protect himself and understand his brother’s painstaking efforts.
Moreover, Uehara hoped that Sasuke could follow Itachi’s wishes and return to Konoha to be an ordinary ninja to get married and have children.”
“…”
Itachi’s expression was very ugly.
To tell the truth, Itachi’s mood was a little broken.
Damn it, why did the ending of the story become like this!
Uehara has made up the story like this. Sasuke, who has a strong personality, how will he agree to return to Konoha!
Uehara looked at Itachi’s expression, and his mood gradually became better. His face showed a touch of regret, “Unfortunately, Sasuke decided to inherit his brother’s dream and follow his friends to change the world. No matter how Uehara persuaded him, he refused to change his mind…”
Uehara’s face showed a touch of sadness.
As Itachi listened, he really couldn’t help but want to hit someone. How could there be a person like Uehara in this world!
This was clearly a half-real and half-fake story that tampered with the lives of others!
To be honest, apart from the last part where Uehara broke in, this story was indeed beautiful, and most of it was his real life.
However, it was the Uehara who broke into his story that completely destroyed this story and all his plans.
For so many years…
Itachi had never put Uehara in his eyes.
He didn’t expect Uehara to be so shameless as to put himself in his life story and use it to deceive Sasuke’s feelings.
Itachi’s face became darker and darker. He slowly closed his eyes and said in a low voice, “So this is the story you made up for Sasuke?”
“Yes~”
Uehara nodded faintly with a hint of sadness on his face, “Itachi-san, this is the life I made up for you. Do you like it?”
“…”
Itachi did not want to answer.
