After Yugao left, Sasuke leaned against the wall alone in Ningguta. His injured body had healed, but his injured heart had nowhere to rest.
He felt like a ship that had lost its way in the sea. A group of people were fighting for the helm, and they didn't even consider his own fate. He hated this feeling very much!
"You all treat me like a child, a fool!"
Dong! Sasuke punched the wall.
"You all have bright eyes and glib tongues! You all know the truth and understand the truth. You all make it seem like everything is my fault! "
Dong! Dong! Dong! Sasuke punched the wall again and again!
"Why do I have to suffer this torment! Why is it that every time I do something that I think is right, there will be a group of people giving me orders! "
"Why is it that I'm kept in the dark about the so-called truth? Why is it that when I'm not satisfied with the results, I will come out and criticize? If that's the case, why didn't anyone tell me what to do in the beginning?! Damn it! Damn it! "
Kacha!
Dark red blood flowed on the red wooden wall. Sasuke suddenly quieted down.
"Soga, Soga, I understand … It turns out that my thoughts are not important at all. I'm just a tool to show off your superiority."
Sasuke covered his face with his bloody hands. Blood flowed through his fingers.
Whoosh!
In the dark and empty tower, the candlelight flickered violently. Sasuke raised his head and laughed wildly, "Ahahahaha …!"
Whoosh!
The Rinnegan relief on the tower wall released the familiar whirlpool again!
"Who is it this time … Enough, I've had enough of this! I don't care about the truth, I'll kill whoever comes, kill kill kill kill kill! Jie Jie! "
Sasuke grinned hideously. Blue lightning crackled in his palm. He launched a sudden attack at the descending shadow!
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!
On the tower wall, Chakra chains shot out and turned into shackles to bind Sasuke's body!
"Don't underestimate me!"
The lightning in Sasuke's palm turned into a 'spear' and extended forward!
The man wearing the animal mask had just landed when he saw the lightning spear approaching his face!
Sizzle! Under the mask, his right eye shone brightly!
Yujia Hun Ming!
Crack!
The lightning in Sasuke's hand dissipated without a trace.
"Nani?!" While Sasuke was stunned, the same Azura Thunder Spear was born in the opposite man's hand, and he waved it!
Sasuke subconsciously closed his eyes!
Cha! Cha! Cha!
With a crisp sound, the Chakra chain binding Sasuke was cut off!
Plop! Sasuke sat on the ground, looking at the man in front of him in disbelief.
The man looked at the cyan lightning in his palm and murmured, "So that's how it is. This is Kamo Birei. In all the Lightning Release, there is nothing more destructive than this. Sasuke, you have really gained great power …"
Familiar Dojutsu, familiar voice, Sasuke's pupils trembled, "You, you are …"
Buzz! The lightning dissipated, and the man raised his hand … and took off his mask.
Slender eyelashes, delicate facial features, white skin, iconic tears … For Sasuke, he never needed to think of his brother's face, nor would he ever forget it!
"Itachi!?" Seeing this face again, the memory of the life and death battle not long ago was awakened. Sasuke instinctively wanted to retreat, but he forced himself to stop. As if there was a ball of cotton stuck in his throat, he opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally, he said in a trembling voice, "Brother … is that you?"
Itachi clenched the mask and tried to calm himself down, "It's me."
Fine cracks, dim pupils, these were the characteristics of an Edo Reincarnator!
"Is that so …" Sasuke's eyes were red, but he couldn't wait to confirm, "Not long ago, a guy named Kabuto told me a lot of things. Itachi, let me ask you, the person who killed father and mother, the person who destroyed the Uchiha Clan, is it true that it's not you?"
Since he chose to face it, Itachi said frankly, "Yes, it's not me!"
Sasuke couldn't understand, "Then why did you bear all of this for Konoha!?"
Itachi said in a low voice, "I don't want you to take revenge on Konoha after knowing the truth …"
Sasuke asked, "So, you single-handedly led the fire of hatred to yourself, and let me kill my only remaining family in this world! Let the bloody truth be buried in the darkness forever! Is that so, answer me, Itachi!? "
Itachi said heavily, "Yes … I planned to do so from the beginning!"
Sasuke shouted, "What a joke! What right do you have to make your own decisions? What right do you have to decide my life? Do you know that it's because of you! How painful it has been for me all these years!! "
Itachi said in pain, "I know … so I've been hesitating."
"…" Sasuke's eyes dimmed, and he glanced at the two pieces of paper with Itachi's handwriting not far away. He raised his eyes and said, "Then why did you appear in front of me again!?"
"Because I found that I was wrong. I imposed the will that I thought was right on you, and ignored your feelings from beginning to end …"
Itachi said and shook his head, "No, in the final analysis, it's because I never looked at you seriously. I assumed that you couldn't have the same 'tolerance' as me. I assumed that after you knew the truth, you would definitely embark on the path of revenge!"
"I was too conceited, conceited that I never thought of discussing with you, and didn't try to trust you, which led to things step by step beyond my expectations. Sasuke, I let you have the power to surpass me, but the price … is the distortion of your heart!"
"I once wanted to let you discover my existence through my handwriting. I wanted to leave another possibility for our ending …"
Itachi clenched his fists tightly, and his voice trembled, "But when Ibiki took my handwriting and said those words to you, I suddenly realized that I didn't even know my brother's handwriting, but I wanted you to recognize my handwriting! Whether it's as a brother or as a ninja, I'm far from mature enough! "
"Therefore, I decided that from now on, I will face my own incompetence, and also face your potential! So, I'm thick-skinned and appeared in front of you again. This time, I decided not to hide anything from you, and let you decide for yourself what to do in the future … "
"…" After a long silence, Sasuke took a deep breath and said, "Then, tell me about it …"
"Look at my eyes!" Itachi's eyes turned into Mangekyo.
– Genjutsu: Sharingan!
With the projection of his eyes, Itachi's mental journey over the years appeared in Sasuke's mind!
