Chapter 24
At this time, in the Hyuga clan.
Naruto and Uchiha Itachi sat opposite each other.
The two were discussing something, but from a distance, Naruto had a relaxed smile on his face, and every move was indescribably natural and casual, as if everything was under control.
As for Uchiha Itachi, he sometimes lowered his head and sometimes frowned. After Naruto’s words, he was silent, and his face did not show any relaxation.
The reactions between the two were completely opposite.
Especially at this moment.
Uchiha Itachi couldn’t help but frowned, looking at Naruto, and said in surprise:
“Nine-tailed Fox?”
“Yes!”
The smile on Naruto’s mouth was very evil, and he whispered:
“Have you forgotten what they called me in Konoha? Demon Fox!”
“I am a demon fox. Is it a bad thing to let the Nine-tailed Fox come out to breathe fresh air?”
Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi was shocked.
The meaning revealed in this sentence.
First, Naruto has the possibility of releasing the Nine-tailed Fox.
The Nine-tailed Fox in Naruto’s body was sealed, first by the Fourth Hokage, and then by the Third Hokage, and reinforced by the seal of the Sealing Class. With so many seals, can he still release the Nine-tailed Fox?
This made Uchiha Itachi a little confused.
The second is his attitude towards Konoha and Uchiha.
Obviously, he hates Konoha.
Then, for Uchiha, it is possible to cooperate!
However.
Itachi also knows that he can’t pass on this today’s words to the clan at all. Once they know that the Jinchūriki has the ability to release the tailed beasts and also intends to cooperate with Uchiha.
With their nature, they will not think about cooperation, but will directly control the Jinchūriki.
At that time.
It is to force Naruto to release the tailed beasts. As for what Naruto is like, they don’t care. They just need a powerful weapon that can cause chaos in Konoha!
And there is no weapon more suitable than Jinchūriki.
If this matter is told to his father…
Itachi pondered.
His father was calmer about this matter, but after all, his father still stood on the side of the Uchiha clan despite the fierce actions of the clan members.
Once things start completely, there is no doubt that my father will let the clan members do what they want, and at that time, there will still be a result.
What about the third generation?
Tell this to the Hokage?
After a little hesitation, Uchiha Itachi still shook his head and rejected it.
Can’t tell.
Naruto helped Sasuke open the Sharingan, which is equivalent to Uchiha Sasuke, and also Uchiha Itachi’s benefactor.
How can he repay kindness with enmity?
Not to mention.
He knows that Naruto is a very dangerous person. Although he is young, he is actually very thoughtful and has a methodical way of doing things. He never does things without a purpose.
And now, since he can tell this to himself, it means that he is absolutely sure.
If not, it will never be like this.
Therefore, even if he told the Third Hokage about this, either Naruto had a countermeasure, or…
He suddenly raised his head and saw Naruto’s meaningful smile, and he trembled immediately.
Or, he was absolutely sure that he could… kill him here!
“Why…”
Naruto smiled and said:
“It’s just a small matter, why are you so scared?”
Uchiha Itachi remained silent.
Naruto said:
“I said, this is a game of chess, you and me, Uchiha and even Konoha, are just chess pieces. It’s just that some chess pieces are restless and want to control the overall situation, but I am unwilling to be controlled and want to gain freedom.”
After hearing this, Uchiha Itachi felt a chill in his heart.
A simple person who doesn’t want to be controlled and wants to gain freedom, but he has to pay the price, but he doesn’t know how many bones he has to pay, or even… the entire Konoha!
At this point, Itachi couldn’t even tell the difference. The man in front of him was called “Demon Fox”. Was he like a demon fox, or… a demon fox like him!
There was a world of difference between the two!
“You are a smart and interesting person, not as disgusting as other Uchiha, so I can give you some opportunities, you can choose!”
After a moment of hesitation, Itachi Uchiha suddenly asked:
“What about those boring people?”
Naruto looked surprised, “Let them die, let them live, wouldn’t that just cause trouble?”
Itachi Uchiha suddenly felt his breathing stagnate.
It was as if Naruto’s words had strangled hisLike a throat, only a little air can be inhaled by him.
“This world is full of pain. Instead of living and being angry at the village, it is better to leave early, forget about the past, lose the name in life, and return to dust.”
As he said this, Naruto smiled.
But in his eyes, there was a scarlet ferocity:
“Do you think I am doing a kind thing?”
Gurgle!
Uchiha Itachi was startled.
Butcher!
He is a butcher!
A butcher who wants to kill everyone and destroy everything!
No, he is a complete lunatic!
He is even crazier than those in the clan.
However, this lunatic is hiding under the skin of a three-year-old child.
He is wrapped in his crazy and wild heart.
Until one day, this skin is completely broken, and then there will be a river of blood!
He will take revenge and kill all those who have bullied and owed him!
No!
Revenge has begun now!
Uchiha Itachi suddenly remembered that not long ago, Naruto’s Nine-Tail lost control and killed many villagers.
And…
The teacher who died in the ninja school!
It wasn’t the Nine-Tail that lost control, it was him! It was him!
A suffocating feeling, at this moment, deeply caught Itachi.
He seemed to dive into the deep sea and couldn’t swim up at all.
The pressure of the sea water and the suffocating feeling of lack of oxygen deeply entangled him.
Pulled his feet and squeezed his neck.
Especially, being stared at by those scarlet eyes, it was as if there was a demon fox with nine tails, grinning and wanting to swallow him.
Finally.
The scene shattered.
Huh! Huh!
Uchiha Itachi took several deep breaths in a row before he calmed down.
Then he looked at Naruto in front of him in horror.
At that moment before, he actually entered a fantasy.
Forced to enter!
And he didn’t feel anything.
If he hadn’t seen a trace at the end, he might not have gotten out.
When Itachi left the illusion, Naruto was slightly surprised and said:
“Have you opened three magatama? You are indeed a genius of the Uchiha clan, much stronger than your brother.”
At this moment, the three magatama Sharingan appeared in Itachi’s eye sockets.
At this moment, with only a slight test, all his cards were exposed to the other party.
He was like naked, and seemed to have no privacy.
All seen through!
Such a terrible pressure!
“Relax.”
Naruto gradually withdrew everything with a gentle smile.
“You, kid, are under too much pressure.”
Uchiha Itachi was in a trance, but saw Naruto had already arrived in front of him, stretched out his hand, and wanted to touch his head.
But…
Itachi is much older than Naruto now, and he is much taller.
He stretched out his hand, but found that he could not reach his head.
His hand froze in the air for a moment.
Itachi subconsciously lowered his head.
Then the palm suddenly slapped over.
With a snap, it hit him on the head.
When they met again, Naruto had already sat back.
It was as if the scene just now had not happened.
“Why do you have to put so much pressure on yourself?”
Naruto looked at him, crossed his hands, put his arms on the table, and then rested his chin on the back of his crossed fingers.
Uchiha Itachi was a little dazed, but replied:
“The village and the clan are already at loggerheads. As the link between the two sides, if I can’t…”
When he was about to say more, he was interrupted by Naruto’s hand.
“So? It’s just that the village wants to destroy the Uchiha, and the Uchiha wants to resist and destroy Konoha. If both sides fight, one side will be hurt.”
Naruto looked directly at Itachi and asked a soul-stirring question:
“When that day comes, what will you do? Help Konoha to slaughter the Uchiha, or join the Uchiha to resist Konoha?”
Itachi fell silent.
“Is it difficult to choose?”
Naruto chuckled.
“The Uchiha’s strength is not bad, but it is far from enough to resist Konoha. Your clan is destined to die, many people will die, or even be wiped out!”
“So, your final choice is most likely to… help Konoha to deal with the Uchiha clan in turn, so as to seek a way out for some clan members, or only your brother!”
Itachi continued to be silent.
“Since the ending is like this, what are you still hesitating about?”
Naruto said:
“Kill them, we should have killed them long ago, isn’t it better to just end everything?”
“But…”
Itachi said at this time, “Maybe there is another way, the Third Generation has been looking for it,He also hopes that this can solve these problems in a peaceful way! ”
“Yes!”
Naruto nodded, “He also hopes to solve the problems with the Hidden Cloud Village in a peaceful way. As for the final result, you should know it!”
“He paid 900 million taels!”
Naruto laughed and tore through the reality:
“This is peace!”
“Between Konoha and Uchiha, who will bow down?”
“The third generation who holds great power and is invincible? Or your clansmen who have been oppressed for a long time, have gone crazy, and are desperate?”
“As for you… your toothpick-like connection is like a thin line. No matter which end is stretched straight, you will break! Itachi… No matter which end you stand on, you will be the one who gets hurt!”
“I…”
Uchiha Itachi wanted to refute at this moment, but he opened his mouth and didn’t know what to refute.
Because, Naruto is right!
“It’s better to jump out directly! ”
Naruto revealed his intention at this moment.
“You are between Uchiha and Konoha, a pawn and undercover agent of both sides. The Sandaime used you to find out the news of Uchiha, and Uchiha, in turn, asked you to find out the news of Konoha?”
“No matter which side wins, you will not get any good! You have a bright future and good talent, why do you have to do such a thing?”
“Not very wise!”
“It’s easy to save anyone, your brother? Just knock him out and take him away! Who doesn’t listen? Then kill him!”
“The only way to maintain peace is with fists!”
“Whoever dares to show his fangs to you, tear his mouth and let him swallow his own teeth one by one! This is the solution to the problem!”
“Instead of your bitch, trying to get the charity of Sarutobi Hiruzen!”
“Itachi! Look at me! ”
At this moment.
Naruto’s voice suddenly became low.
Uchiha Itachi subconsciously raised his head and met Naruto’s eyes.
He trembled for a moment.
He saw the bloody scene.
Corpses everywhere, blood-stained Uchiha, parents lying in a pool of blood, and crying brother.
The ninjas of Konoha scattered around, slaughtering the remaining Uchiha.
A devastated area.
A fire broke out in the Uchiha clan land.
The fire became more and more fierce, engulfing the prosperity and clan members of the Uchiha, and this fire, with the help of Konoha, burned bigger and bigger.
It was difficult to quell!
And Itachi, himself, stood in place, at the junction of the two sides, staring at all this.
At this time, a voice like a devil’s low hum came to his ears:
“What will you choose?”
“Parents, brother, clan members, or… village! ”
“In front of family affection, is the so-called righteousness so important?”
“In front of righteousness, is the so-called family affection really so hard to give up?”
The voice kept echoing.
Mumbling his two choices, each of which made him extremely entangled and difficult to determine!
He was caught in the middle, in a dilemma and unable to give up!
“How do you choose! ”
Suddenly.
Itachi raised his head.
The scarlet three magatama gradually changed.
Blood slowly flowed from his pupils and eyes.
The blood slid down his eyes and dyed his cheeks red.
At this moment, Itachi’s eyes were a little hideous.
His face was a little scary.
But his back was indescribably sad and bleak.
He was mixed in.
He was a member of Konoha and was entrusted with an important task by the third generation! He took the will of fire as his goal and the direction of his life, and wanted to work hard towards it.
But, he was also a member of Uchiha. He had parents, a dear brother, trusted partners, and clansmen. This was his warm beginning, the place where he grew up.
However, the two fought against each other and were as hostile as fire and water!
Boom!
A terrible momentum erupted from Uchiha Itachi.
His original three-magatama Sharingan changed at this moment and became connected.
Blood was still flowing down his cheeks.
Naruto watched this scene.
He felt quite emotional.
Thinking about the handsome guy who opened the single-magatama angrily, and looking at this one who opened the Mangekyō…
Sure enough, comparing people is so annoying!
Itachi broke free from the illusion.
Panting heavily.
He suddenly looked up at Naruto and asked:
“What… do you want?”
“A chess piece!”
“From now on, you are no longer a member of the Uchiha clan, no longer a member of his Sarutobi Hiruzen’s Anbu, but just a chess piece of mine!”
“But, I allow you to have your own ideas! Allow you to live for yourself…!”
