Chapter 35 Died
Chapter 35 Died
Uchiha Gen said that if you don't have to worry about eye problems and chakra problems, Susanoo is really convenient to use. The moves are old-fashioned, but they are enough. Naruto even made Rasengan until the end of the series.
Taking this opportunity, Itachi slightly opened his eyes, and the magatama in his eyes transformed into the shape of darts. Suddenly, a burst of black flames erupted from Han's body—Amaterasu!
"What the hell is this?!" Han struggled to his feet and was suddenly shocked, because he had originally planned to jump into the water to put out the fire, but he found that he couldn't put it out at all, and the black fire was still spreading!
Sensing the threat, Han immediately took off his steam armor, which was wreathed in black flames!
However, when Han looked around again, he found that the surrounding environment had returned to calm, as if nothing had happened, including the giant hand that had suddenly appeared earlier.
Damn it! Han looked at the burning steam armor beside him with a solemn expression. He couldn't wait any longer. He secretly mobilized the chakra in his body and kept it in a disordered state.
At the same time, the surrounding scenery began to distort again, slowly revealing reality, but in a daze, 'reality' was about to be covered by illusion again!
Seeing this situation, Han finally started to panic. If things continued like this, he might die here today!
Escape! We must escape!
Seeing that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki was about to enter the next stage of Tailed Beast Transformation, and Itachi didn't make any move, Uchiha Gen thought for a moment and decided that if he helped him with such a big favor, Itachi probably wouldn't refuse to sign an autograph for him.
Using the technique of Suspension, Uchiha Gen suddenly appeared behind the Jinchuriki. After strengthening Suspension, he used Susanoo to enhance Susanoo. In an instant, the arm that had just appeared suddenly multiplied in size, creating a violent whooshing sound as it slammed heavily onto Han!
As soon as the smoke cleared, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki was knocked unconscious before he could even fully transform into his tailed beast form!
Crush them!
After landing and regaining his footing, Gen Uchiha pondered to himself that, to be honest, he hadn't expected the sneak attack to be so effective.
He offered a solution: no matter how strong a Jinchūriki is, if they can achieve overwhelming power in a single moment, it is highly likely that the power of their Tailed Beasts can be suppressed.
Of course, this situation only applies when the person and the tailed beast are too incompatible. After all, the tailed beast and the jinchūriki are essentially two people. In the case just now, the tailed beast could definitely remind the jinchūriki.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Gen greeted Itachi, indicating that he could come over.
Itachi slowly walked out and asked in confusion, "Are your eyes alright?"
"It's alright, let's discuss it. I'll carry him for a while, and you can carry him for the rest of the way back, how about that?" Uchiha Gen said, then suddenly thought of something, "Or you could give me an autograph, and I'll carry him the whole way."
However, after he finished speaking, Itachi noticed that Gen Uchiha's gaze was fixed on his left hand, which was hanging in a sling, as if he was wondering if he could write with that hand.
"..."
Itachi chose to ignore him: "What do you need an autograph for?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Gen gave the reason he had prepared beforehand: "To keep as a memento, to record my first teammate in Akatsuki, even if it was only temporary."
"Okay, can you answer one question for me?"
"?"
The next moment, Uchiha Gen sensed that Itachi was using Tsukuyomi to pull him in, and felt that Itachi probably wanted to say something to him. Uchiha Gen did not choose to resist and successfully entered the blood-red world of Tsukuyomi.
The scene changed, and Uchiha Gen entered Tsukuyomi for the first time. He was a little curious and looked around. Sure enough, it was different from the feeling the system gave him. Speaking of which, the red moon in the sky was really a bit eerie.
Itachi stood before Uchiha Gen, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Are you... already dead?"
Uchiha Gen remained silent for a long time, somewhat doubting his existence. "...Where did I slip up?" Uchiha Gen did not deny it, nor did he bother to deny it. Since Uchiha Itachi had already guessed this, even if he denied it, it would probably be of no use. As expected of Itachi, right?
"It's just speculation." The dead do differ from the living in some details, but Itachi lacked conclusive evidence. Unexpectedly, Uchiha Gen directly admitted, "Did 'Madara' revive you? What was his true purpose?"
Uchiha Gen sighed: "No, this situation is a bit complicated. Anyway, I wasn't controlled by anyone, and that masked guy shouldn't be 'Madara.' As far as I know, if it were Madara, he would have directly overwhelmed the opponent with his strength instead of running around like that."
"...!" Uchiha Itachi was speechless, feeling the immense amount of information conveyed in those words. Could this person in front of him really be a senior member of the Uchiha clan?
Seeing Itachi's expression, Gen Uchiha suddenly thought of something amusing, and his expression turned serious: "Itachi, listen carefully, I'll only tell you this information once..."
When Itachi emerged from the Tsukuyomi space, less than a second had passed in the outside world. He continued forward nonchalantly, processing the massive amount of information before finally calming down after a long while.
Madara is actually Obito. According to Gen Uchiha's speculation, the Uchiha clan's stone tablet may have been altered, and the Infinite Tsukuyomi recorded therein is more like an attempt to unseal a certain being. Furthermore, the Rinnegan evolved from the Sharingan.
Although Uchiha Gen said these were all his guesses, Itachi's intuition told him that they were likely true.
What puzzled Itachi was how Uchiha Gen died. Uchiha Gen chose to avoid the question and did not answer it.
Itachi couldn't help but wonder: if such a person hadn't died, would the Uchiha clan have ended up like this? Who killed him? As he thought this, he suddenly saw double and his vision blurred a little more.
White Zetsu saw the enormous hand from the outside, and then it fell completely silent inside. He had only ever seen a Susanoo of this size on Madara. Was this the end? The Five-Tails Jinchuriki hadn't even fully transformed into a Tailed Beast?
Upon receiving this information from White Zetsu, Obito couldn't help but feel fortunate that he hadn't chosen to confront him head-on and had even recruited Uchiha Gen. Otherwise, even if he had managed to kill him, the price he would have had to pay would have been unimaginable.
Moreover, once he takes action, he probably won't be able to keep up the act of being Madara Uchiha anymore.
……
I disagree.
While sipping her tea and reviewing the documents, Tsunade said, "The place you're going to is too far, and your own strength is rather weak. Do you even realize what being a member of the Uzumaki clan and possessing the Adamantine Sealing Chains, which pose a great threat to tailed beasts, means to other ninja villages?"
"Hmm~ They must know, otherwise they wouldn't have come to Konoha seeking refuge."
"If you already know, why are you asking me?"
"Because I promised someone I would go back to see them during this time period."
"Who is it?"
"A dead person..." In a sense, the original body is indeed a dead person.
"..."
Tsunade, her head throbbing, tapped her fingers incessantly on the table. Suddenly, Shizune knocked and entered, placing a stack of documents on Tsunade's desk.
Because of Danzo's actions, various unresolved issues and the handling of his legacy have resulted in a severe shortage of manpower during this period. Tsunade also lacks the resources to send anyone to protect Uzumaki Reikawa.
This is different from Kagami's Wood Release. Kagami is a special case that cannot be replicated, while Reikawa Uzumaki is a member of the Uzumaki clan, which is fundamentally different.
