Chapter 65 Why didn't you stop me sooner?
Uchiha Itachi stared at Shisui's Sharingan in his hand, and his Mangekyou Sharingan power suddenly erupted!
The powerful chakra fluctuations tore through space, and the two consciousnesses instantly intertwined and merged, forming a strange and cold connection.
In an instant, a thick, blood-red mist spread wildly, completely engulfing the itachi.
In the mist, his consciousness was suddenly pulled away from reality, falling into a dark and empty space of consciousness...
It was pitch black here, as if there were no boundaries, with only faint light and shadows intertwining and floating.
Uchiha Itachi stood in the void, staring at the scene before him with a slightly shocked expression.
This was the day Shisui died.
The power of consciousness rewind brought Itachi back to a past he had never witnessed.
Itachi saw that on that night, Uchiha Shisui had made up his mind to leave the clan territory alone and go to Konoha's higher-ups to negotiate.
But just as he was about to step out of the clan's territory, Zhishui suddenly stopped, his expression changed slightly, and he turned back again.
Shisui went straight to the Uchiha Police Station.
The place was brightly lit, yet eerily silent.
Under the lamplight, Uchiha Gen sat quietly alone in the center of the room, holding black and white Go stones, slowly playing a game against himself.
The sound of black and white chess pieces falling was clear and calm, which seemed particularly eerie in the silent space.
Upon seeing this, Itachi was immediately shocked, his eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.
He never imagined that Shisui would actually come back to see Uchiha Gen before heading to the Konoha leadership!
The moment Shisui stepped into the room, Uchiha Gen's voice suddenly rang out, flat yet filled with cold sarcasm...
"My dear brother Shisui, you've finally arrived."
Uchiha Gen gently picked up the black chess piece and sighed softly...
"Even if I said something wrong in the past, or even angered you, forcing you to use Kotoamatsukami to control me for so many years... shouldn't that be enough by now?"
Upon hearing this, Shisui remained silent, his face revealing undisguised pain and struggle.
"you..."
"Perhaps you've forgotten?"
Uchiha Gen's tone was unusually calm...
"Although you control me with Kotoamatsukami and suppress my thoughts, at the same time, you can never reveal my existence and abilities to anyone..."
A smirk crept onto his lips, revealing a sinister smile.
For many years, Shisui had been bound by Uchiha Gen's strange abilities, and even his closest brother Itachi and the Konoha leadership could not reveal any information about Gen.
All the words intended to warn others vanished like the wind the moment they were uttered...
All attempts to uncover Yuan's true nature seemed to have been erased without a trace by some strange force.
Despite years of painstakingly suppressing the other party, he has instead become a stepping stone for the other party to continuously grow stronger and hone their will.
Because when Shisui used Kotoamatsukami to control Uchiha Awaki, he was trying to make him loyal to Konoha and to embody the Will of Fire.
Therefore, Uchiha Hideyoshi swore an oath to himself...
"My wish... is to serve the village silently and anonymously before becoming a qualified Will of Fire ninja."
These words do not contradict the modifications made by the controlling will of Kotoamatsukami...
However, this prevented Shisui from revealing any information about Uchiha Abyss...
Their pupil powers intertwined...
Modify, control...
"Yuan, if you continue to cling to those crazy and dangerous ideas, I will not hesitate to take your head off myself."
Uchiha Gen listened quietly to Shisui's threat, showing no panic or anger, and slowly nodded, displaying an understanding and composed demeanor...
"You don't need to be so wary. I am still an Uchiha clansman who deeply loves the village."
"Haven't you seen my ninja academy assignments?"
Upon hearing this, Shisui felt an inexplicable chill creep into his heart.
He simply couldn't comprehend the bizarre and dangerous presence before him.
After a moment of restraint, Shisui finally couldn't contain his anxiety any longer: "What exactly are you going to do?"
In the dimly lit room, the burning candlelight flickered slightly, casting orange shadows.
Uchiha Gen slowly raised his head, a bright smile appearing on his pale yet handsome face.
"Just reflecting on my own life..."
"Is it more interesting to live freely and do whatever one pleases, or to meticulously plan everything and achieve one's goals step by step?"
Uchiha Gen slowly raised his head, his gaze leisurely falling on the ancient and gloomy window.
The night seemed to freeze, and the candlelight in the room suddenly flickered, emitting a faint but jarring sound, making the already gloomy atmosphere even more oppressive and unbearable.
At that moment, the image of Uchiha Itachi was reflected in the originally dark and cold window.
Itachi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and an indescribable chill and fear instantly rose in his heart.
His body trembled slightly as he stared at the window that should have been empty, his heart pounding wildly.
Uchiha Gen walked step by step toward the window.
With each step, a heavy and eerie echo reverberated on the floor, like a whisper from the depths of hell.
At this moment, Uchiha Gen slowly reached out his hand towards the window, his fingertips gently touching Itachi's face reflected in the glass.
Just as Itachi was about to look away, the image in the window suddenly distorted and changed violently...
The eyes of Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha, the husband and wife duo, had now become two black, empty sockets...
Blood was gushing out of the hole, streaming down her face and dripping onto the window, forming hideous and terrifying streaks.
"What exactly are you afraid of?"
Uchiha Gen spoke softly, his voice seemingly possessing a certain magic that stirred the hearts of those who heard it.
Upon seeing his parents' faces, Itachi Uchiha staggered back a step...
But just as he stepped back, Uchiha Shisui, who had been standing beside him, slowly turned around.
His face turned deathly pale, and his eyes transformed into two endless, dark abysses.
Blood slowly dripped down, and Shisui's expression carried a chilling calm and sorrow, as if telling of a despair from the deepest part of hell.
"Why didn't you stop me sooner?"
Shisui's empty, bloodshot eyes seemed to be silently staring at Itachi, his voice low and cold, "Do you see? This is everything you caused..."
Itachi tried to speak in his defense, but found himself unable to utter a single sound...
Only at this moment did Itachi Uchiha realize a terrifying reality...
Uchiha Awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan very early on...
As he continued to make arrangements, his pupil power has now reached a terrifying level.
At this moment, Uchiha Gen slowly raised his hand, and strange flames suddenly appeared on his fingertips.
These flames, like those of the underworld, emitted an eerie light, their coldness tinged with a mysterious allure.
In an instant, the flames transformed into countless exquisitely beautiful fire moths, which danced gracefully, their flapping wings emitting chilling giggles and whispers.
The entire room...
Suddenly, it was rapidly covered by countless withered trees, which coiled and entangled like man-eating tentacles, spreading quickly.
As the moths and withered wood intertwined, they instantly ignited into a raging inferno, spreading wildly and fiercely in all directions, shattering the entire illusion.
Itachi Uchiha was instantly engulfed by the all-encompassing flames...
Amidst the raging inferno, Uchiha Abyss stood motionless, neither joyful nor sorrowful...
"I've already repented, and accepted the fate of the Uchiha clan's annihilation..."
As the words fell...
Izanami...
break!
Before he could finish speaking, reality shattered like a mirror. Itachi Uchiha's pupils dilated abruptly, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious like a puppet with its strings cut.
Tobirama's figure flashed to the scene, his cold, sharp kunai pressed precisely against Itachi's head, his killing intent palpable.
However, just as Tobirama was about to stab the kunai, the void twisted, a divine vortex appeared, and the masked man's figure emerged from the spatial rift like a ghost.
Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed Itachi's shoulder...
His red Sharingan gleamed with a cold light as he met Tobirama's gaze indifferently!
"Who are you?"
"I am Uchiha Madara!"
Tobirama: "..."
Why did this masked man get the news so quickly...?
On the other side, Kakashi and Naruto were leisurely enjoying Ichiraku Ramen at a makeshift stall...
