Sasuke: This Is a Technique You Absolutely Cannot Escape!
[Kushina Uzumaki: Hahaha, that one-eyed freak finally got what he deserved!]
[Kushina Uzumaki: Wait… it removed something from his arm?!]
[Madara Uchiha (young): Why do members of the Uchiha clan have their Sharingan on someone else's body?]
[Izuna Uchiha: Danzo, I swear I'll kill you!]
[Uchiha Tekka: I knew there was something wrong with you, you bastard!]
[Uchiha Anbu: @Hiruzen Sarutobi, Lord Hokage, give us an explanation! Why does Danzo have Uchiha Sharingan?!]
[Tobirama Senju: Monkey, stop playing dead and answer! Why are Uchiha eyes on Danzo's body?!]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Teacher… I don't know…]
[Tobirama Senju: You're the Hokage and you don't know?!]
[Danzo Shimura: Teacher, for the sake of Konoha… I had no choice.]
[Uchiha Tajima: For your ass! I'll—!]
[Uchiha Tekka: Danzo, I swear I'll wipe out your entire bloodline!]
[Uchiha Inabi: Danzo, you're dead!]
[Mei Terumi: Wow… everyone's ganging up on Danzo.]
[Uchiha Setsuna: Danzo, you bastard, just you wait!]
[Uchiha Yashiro: Danzo, you're nothing but trash!]
[Danzo Shimura: Hmph. What do you all understand? Everything I've done… is for Konoha.]
The camera continued forward, capturing the faint smirk on Sasuke's face.
Memories surged like a tide—back to the moment he had been struck by Amaterasu.
Sasuke had quickly used Chidori to carve a hole into the ground.
Taking advantage of the moment, he dropped from the rooftop into the hole, creating the illusion that his real body had been burned to death by the black flames.
"I've been waiting for this moment," Sasuke thought with satisfaction.
Immediately, the black curse mark spread across his entire body like a tide.
His appearance underwent a shocking transformation, his body becoming covered in black markings.
[Uchiha Mikoto: My son… you look so ugly like that.]
[Sasuke Uchiha: ...…]
The scene shifted.
Sasuke clasped his hands together, preparing to unleash a technique.
On the rooftop, Itachi had already dropped to his knees, coughing violently as blood spilled from his mouth.
He covered his right eye, his face twisted in agony.
"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
Sasuke expelled blazing flames that shot straight into the sky.
Crack—
The floor beneath Itachi shattered.
"!" Itachi's pupils widened as he sensed danger and immediately leapt away.
Boom!
A massive fire dragon burst through the ground, soaring upward.
Smoke billowed everywhere as Itachi retreated, avoiding the blast.
But the ground continued to rupture.
More fire dragons erupted one after another.
Itachi leapt through the air, but several flames grazed his arm.
Explosions rocked the rooftop, white smoke rising into the air.
As the smoke cleared, Itachi's condition had worsened. His right eye had begun to fail, his vision blurring.
He shut it tightly, enduring the pain.
The rooftop cracked open further, and Itachi finally saw Sasuke's transformed appearance.
[Uchiha Mikoto: Stop! Both of you, stop fighting! Please stop!]
[Minato Namikaze: Lady Mikoto… that night, the rain was very heavy…]
[Uchiha Fugaku: Minato, what do you mean by that?]
[Minato Namikaze: Nothing, Fugaku. Just reminiscing…]
The camera continued forward, focusing on Sasuke's exhausted state.
He crouched low, breathing heavily as he spoke with difficulty, "That Amaterasu earlier… seems to have put quite a burden on you."
Sasuke remained half-kneeling, visibly drained.
"Both of them are completely exhausted. Their chakra must be almost gone," White Zetsu observed.
"Seems that way," Black Zetsu agreed.
At that moment, the curse mark on Sasuke began to recede, and he gradually returned to his original appearance.
"This will probably be my final technique," Sasuke said with a cold smile, a hint of anticipation in his voice.
[Uchiha Mikoto: Sasuke, you look much better like this. Don't use that curse mark again—it's ugly.]
[Sasuke Uchiha: I don't care about that. As long as I can kill Itachi!]
[Sasuke Uchiha (adult): With just your three tomoe? Only after growing up did I realize how ridiculous it is to think three tomoe could defeat the Mangekyō.]
[Uchiha Sarada: Dad, only three tomoe at that age… kind of weak, isn't it?]
[Sasuke Uchiha: What do you know?! I already have two tomoe! And three tomoe is strong, alright?!]
[Sasuke Uchiha: Do you know how many people can awaken three tomoe at my age?!]
[Uchiha Hikari: I was younger than you and already had the Mangekyō.]
[Uchiha Shisui: At that age… I think I already had the Mangekyō too.]
[Izuna Uchiha: Same here.]
[Madara Uchiha: +1]
[Obito Uchiha: ]
[Indra: @Sasuke Uchiha I had Mangekyō at twelve. When did you awaken yours, junior?]
[Sasuke Uchiha: ... ]
The camera moved forward, capturing Itachi's frail figure.
He looked at Sasuke and spoke weakly yet steadily, "The Sharingan can see chakra."
"Stop forcing yourself. I know you've run out of chakra," Itachi said, watching Sasuke's exhausted body.
Sasuke stood up, his gaze fixed on Itachi atop the rooftop.
"The Orochimaru-style substitution you used to escape Amaterasu… it's hard to detect."
"And that kind of substitution requires a large amount of chakra."
Itachi's voice was faint, yet there was an underlying concern.
"Right, because Sasuke sealed Orochimaru," White Zetsu added.
"I see," Black Zetsu replied.
[Jiraiya: Hahaha! Orochimaru, what kind of disciple did you take in?!]
[Tsunade Senju: Orochimaru, you didn't take a student—you took your own boss!]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Orochimaru… sigh…]
[Orochimaru: ???]
Inside a dark cave, Orochimaru stared at the screen in confusion.
"That brat… Uchiha Sasuke actually sealed me…" he muttered, his voice hoarse with disbelief.
The scene shifted.
Thunder roared across the sky.
Dark clouds gathered as lightning tore through the heavens.
"Indeed… I've run out of chakra," Sasuke said calmly.
"Because I used it all up on those fire techniques."
Raindrops began to fall.
Soft at first, then steadily increasing.
The rain pattered against their bodies.
"But…"
That familiar voice echoed again.
"Did you really think I came here to kill you without any preparation?"
Sasuke's tone was cold, laced with confidence.
Another thunderclap roared.
Lightning illuminated his face, revealing unwavering determination.
[Fourth Raikage A: I'm curious… how are they going to continue this fight?]
[Kakashi Hatake: I'm jealous… you guys all have more chakra than me…]
[Hashirama Senju: Huh? They didn't even use that much. How are they already out of chakra?]
[Tobirama Senju: Not everyone is like you, brother.]
[Hashirama Senju: Then why are they forming hand seals? Isn't it just clap your hands and it's done?]
[Tobirama Senju: Brother, stop showing off!]
[Hashirama Senju: @Everyone I'm not showing off… don't you all need hand seals to use jutsu?]
[Kisame Hoshigaki: ...…]
[Deidara: Wow, Kisame got triggered.]
[Tobirama Senju: Brother, shut up! You're making everyone lose confidence!]
[Hashirama Senju: …Oh.]
The camera continued forward.
Sasuke's confident gaze locked onto Itachi.
"This technique… is just like Amaterasu."
"It's absolutely unavoidable."
His voice was filled with certainty.
"Then as you wish… I'll recreate it…"
Before he could finish—
Thunder roared again.
Lightning illuminated his face.
"You dying."
The rain intensified.
Dark clouds swallowed the sky, as if the world itself was preparing for what was about to come.
