One-Punch Man World.
"Genjutsu? What's that?" Saitama scratched his head, looking curiously at Itachi and Sasuke, who were motionless in the video.
He remembered that Sasuke and Itachi were just fighting, weren't they?
Why was it that from another perspective, the area Sasuke had previously destroyed was now perfectly intact?
Because the power systems of the two worlds were different, Saitama felt like his brain was starting to struggle.
"It must be some kind of magic trick."
Genos didn't quite understand the so-called 'Genjutsu' either, but based on the previous video, he said, "It's like that Emiya Shirou who cut Gilgamesh's arm. The two of them are fighting in a specific world that doesn't interfere with the real world."
"Speaking of which, Emiya Shirou and that Sasuke sound very similar."
Whenever Emiya Shirou and Sasuke were mentioned, Saitama felt their voices were very alike.
"..."
Tatsumaki didn't say anything. Floating in mid-air, she looked at Uchiha Itachi in the video and frowned slightly. Through some small details, she could sense it.
This guy named Uchiha Itachi was very strong.
She just didn't know if it was her imagination, but she always felt that this Uchiha Itachi was telling his younger brother many 'confidential' matters.
Like just now, explaining how to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan, and how overusing it leads to blindness.
And the remedy was quite simple: obtaining the Mangekyo Sharingan of a close relative.
Fusing the two results in the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which carries no risk of blindness.
'As I thought.' Tatsumaki narrowed her eyes as she watched Uchiha Itachi explaining to Sasuke on the screen. She could feel it.
This guy was doing it on purpose; he was intentionally revealing all that information to his brother.
As for the reason, as an older sister herself, Tatsumaki could more or less guess Itachi's current thoughts. It was likely playing the villain so his brother could live a happy life.
She was tired of seeing this kind of trick.
Naruto World, Akatsuki Organization.
"Genjutsu? Since when?" Deidara looked at Uchiha Itachi with considerable wariness. Even with his mechanical eye specifically designed to counter the Sharingan, he didn't think he could resist Itachi's Genjutsu in a direct confrontation.
This guy's mastery of Genjutsu was truly terrifying.
Back when they first met, Deidara had almost died by his own Ninjutsu because of Itachi's Genjutsu.
The others were also very wary of Itachi's Genjutsu. Within the Akatsuki Organization, anyone remotely sane knew better than to use Genjutsu against Itachi.
"I don't know." Sasori looked at Sasuke in the video and said in a subtle tone, "But Itachi, you really are going easy on your brother."
"Without the Mangekyo Sharingan, just a Three-Tomoe Sharingan shouldn't be able to resist Itachi's Genjutsu."
Pain also spoke up. He had always maintained a cold and aloof image, but now he held a very high opinion of Itachi.
Even for an Uchiha, as long as they hadn't awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, they wouldn't be able to resist Itachi's Genjutsu.
Similarly, even if they did awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan, Pain felt there were few people in this world who could withstand Itachi's Genjutsu.
Itachi didn't say anything; this was probably the least he had ever spoken.
In other videos, he would usually say a word or two, but starting from this video, his words became fewer.
The video continued playing.
Through Itachi's flashback and explanation, Sasuke finally understood why his brother hadn't 'killed' him.
It turned out Itachi was now nearly 'blind' and was waiting for Sasuke to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan so he could take his eyes and regain his sight.
Now, Itachi looked at Sasuke and said calmly, "The current Madara is a loser. He is not the one who holds the true peak of the Uchiha Clan."
Itachi quietly clenched his fist, his tone becoming quite excited as he said, "Surpassing that man... surpassing Madara... I will be the one who truly nears the peak!"
"And now! I can finally obtain power that surpasses Madara!!"
At this moment, Uchiha Itachi's tone was exceptionally excited. He suddenly widened his eyes, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan transforming into the Mangekyo Sharingan. Making a distorted meme-face, he looked at Sasuke and shouted, "Sasuke! You are my new light!"
"!!!!"
Sasuke seemed to have never seen Uchiha Itachi make such a face before; he looked quite surprised.
Not just him, but everyone else who knew Uchiha Itachi also wore quite strange expressions at this moment.
Could that cold and aloof Uchiha Itachi actually make such a face?!
Those who knew Itachi knew that in his daily life, he almost always maintained a very calm expression, as if nothing could cause an emotional ripple in him.
If not for this video, most people who knew Itachi wouldn't have known he could smile or make such... exaggerated expressions.
"You are my spare parts!" Uchiha Itachi reached out, and a four-eyed monster appeared behind him.
This monster had one pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and it was still missing another pair.
"Originally, the Uchiha Clan would kill friends for the Mangekyo Sharingan, all to obtain eternal visual prowess!!"
While Uchiha Itachi was speaking, Sasuke was bound by tentacles from the monster.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Itachi continued to roar, "And then, an ugly clan that takes pride in such power!"
"From the moment you were born into this clan... you were swept into this blood-soaked destiny!!!"
The monster's tentacles spread slightly like human hands, seemingly intending to take the Sharingan from Sasuke.
This scene made Sasuke feel quite terrified, cold sweat sliding down his face.
"Come!" Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan stared at Sasuke as he shouted, "I will kill you! Free you from the clan's destiny, and personally grasp true change!"
"Remove the restrictions and liberate yourself from your own capacity!"
"We are each other's spare parts!"
"This is the bond of Uchiha brothers!"
As Itachi roared, Sasuke slowly closed his eyes, silently removing the bandages from his head and taking off his trench coat, tossing it aside.
At that moment, the monster that had appeared and the roaring Itachi both vanished.
'It seems you have recognized the me in your heart.'
Seeing Sasuke like this, Uchiha Itachi knew he had let go of his doubts and questions.
As if understanding Itachi's scheme, Sasuke looked at Uchiha Itachi and said calmly, "Is it all for this?"
