"You mean, Itachi Uchiha... took Kisame to Konoha?"
[Black Zetsu's voice was deep.]
[Obito Uchiha lies on the experimental table.]
Regularly check half of your body.
[A moment of silence.]
It slowly said:
"Let's probe Konoha's true strength."
"Also, send a few White Zetsu along to investigate."
"If he doesn't come back... hehe."
"Even if they return, have the White Zetsu's true form send them somewhere else."
["..."
[Obito Uchiha said a lot.]
But Black Zetsu had no time to consider such trivial matters.
There's no need to be wary of White Zetsu.
[It's highly likely that it's been affected by some kind of illusion or magic powerful enough to influence it.]
As for the White Zetsu sent out, their memories of the base are erased each time.
If you want to come back, you'll have to go to the cover used to conceal this underground base first.
Therefore, Black Zetsu is not worried about these things.
It glanced at Obito Uchiha, whose eyes were vacant and lost in thought.
[He cursed inwardly.]
He then made an excuse to leave.
["waste!"]
[call--]
Black Zetsu shook his head.
[Then he submerged underground and swam towards the outside of the underground base.]
If it weren't for the Konoha incident, its first thought would probably be to go check out Amegakure.
But now, that's not its primary concern.
[Obito Uchiha, after completing the examination, also entered the Kamui dimension.]
[...]
[at the same time. ]
[Across the ninja world.]
All the various factions and groups received meeting notices from their leaders.
[...]
["Cough cough..."]
[Itachi Uchiha is kneeling on one knee.]
[His body was hunched over, and blood kept flowing from between his fingers.]
Even if it tries its best to restrain itself.
However, he still couldn't stop coughing up blood.
[At the same time.]
[Itachi Uchiha's fiery red Susanoo, third form.]
It is also deteriorating at a visible rate.
[The armor of the Tengu is removed.]
Then even the flesh and veins disappeared.
Only a huge skeleton remained.
But then...
The situation has stabilized again.
Clearly, unlike Sasuke, it didn't immediately exhaust itself and even lose its initial form.
[Seeing this.]
The spectators all frowned.
Only Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju remained calm.
Both brothers knew the Uchiha clan very well.
[Especially since their opponents were the Uchiha brothers.]
[Susanoo and such.]
[It's nothing unusual.]
[and. ]
[Regarding Hashirama Senju.]
This Susanoo couldn't even stir any emotion in him.
[Weak, too weak.]
[It's not even in the same league as Madara's Susanoo.]
["snort!"]
Sasuke snorted coldly.
[Stand up immediately.]
[His eyes have reverted to the three-tomoe Sharingan.]
[Just about to forcefully activate the Mangekyou Sharingan.]
[It immediately backfired.]
He groaned in pain, clutching one eye.
["hateful!"]
[Then, blood and qi surged.]
[They charged straight at it.]
[Sizzle—]
[Chidori.]
[And on the other side.]
[After taking a few deep breaths, Itachi Uchiha...]
They've recovered.
It slowly rose to its feet.
The fiery red Susanoo rotated its massive skull, its empty eye sockets staring at Sasuke.
"Still too weak."
"Even the Mangekyou Sharingan can't be activated anymore?"
"Is this what you mean by your pain being greater than mine?"
These words, like a sharp sword, pierced Sasuke's heart.
"Shut up!"
"Damn beast!"
"Even without activating the Mangekyou Sharingan, I can easily defeat you!"
[This tone of voice...]
Everyone shook their heads helplessly.
[They've arrived.]
Although Sasuke has indeed grown a lot.
[He is also able to control his emotions.]
But what if the setback is too severe?
[My brain will be controlled by chakra again.]
Tobirama Senju: "That's right, that born evil Uchiha brat is just that pathetic."
Uchiha Izuna: Hahaha~
Uchiha Izuna: Tobirama, how were you when he was his age?
Tobirama Senju: I have begun to take over my father's work within the clan.
Uchiha Izuna: Tsk tsk tsk~
Uchiha Izuna: Did you hear that? Little Sassa, come on~
Uchiha Sasuke: "..."
...
[Whoosh—]
Sasuke's figure disappeared from the spot.
Itachi Uchiha lowered his eyes slightly.
Somewhat disappointed.
[Relying too much on the power of the eyes.]
Is this all there is to it, since you don't have eyes?
Suddenly.
Itachi Uchiha seemed to have sensed something.
His pupils contracted sharply.
At the same time, deeply buried memories resurfaced in my mind.
"Body Instantaneous Movement..."
It murmured.
Then he glanced sideways.
Sasuke then attacked from another direction.
His face was contorted with rage, and the hatred in his eyes was almost overflowing.
[Next.]
Numerous illusory clones emerged from Sasuke's body.
["Still water..."]
[Itachi Uchiha unconsciously uttered this name.]
Meanwhile, Itachi Uchiha was already surrounded by Sasuke.
["Lightning Release: Earth Walk!"]
[Sizzle—]
[Razer dived directly into the ground.]
[He rushed to Itachi Uchiha's feet.]
But at the moment it breaks through the soil.
However, it was blocked by the fiery red Susanoo.
[Behind Itachi Uchiha.]
Sasuke's shadow clone rapidly formed hand seals.
The shadow clone moved as follows.
The other two shadow clones also activated simultaneously.
["Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!"]
[Boom!]
[soon. ]
[Three walls of dog heads appear.]
[But none of them were directly in front of Itachi Uchiha.]
The dog-head wall hasn't been erected on its front yet.
[Instead, it was Sasuke who attacked using phantom clones.]
[Sudden. ]
Itachi Uchiha felt unable to move his body.
Sasuke appeared before them.
[A beam of light shot out from the Thousand Birds in his hand, piercing directly into its heart.]
A sharp pain struck.
However, Itachi Uchiha's face remained expressionless.
[Click—]
Suddenly, a shattering sound rang out.
[In an instant.]
[The screen is broken.]
Itachi Uchiha watched expressionlessly as Sasuke used the Body Flicker Technique to move among his phantom clones.
Too young.
But they did put in a lot of hard work.
You've gotten stronger.
[Sass gives.]
But... it's still not enough.
Even now, you still can't...
Itachi Uchiha closed his eyes.
A thought suddenly occurred to me.
The fiery red Susanoo immediately raised its hand and swept it forward.
[Countless phantom clones of Sasuke were covered within it.]
[They're all illusions, so naturally they won't be hit.]
Itachi Uchiha slowly opened his eyes.
[Look at the location where Sasuke's true form is.]
["it's over."]
"It's over."
Itachi Uchiha was taken aback.
Then he looked into the distance.
That's where Sasuke's true form is located.
What it just saw was actually... a shadow clone!
The shadow clones are using Uchiha Shisui's signature technique, Body Flicker Technique, as a feint attack.
The real attack... is hidden behind.
