Chapter 445 The Shocked Itachi (3 in 1, 420 Monthly Pass Plus)
Feeling the strong aura emanating from Sasuke, Naruto involuntarily took two steps back.
Although the two of them are now friends and rivals, and they occasionally compete with each other, this is the first time he has felt such a strong Sasuke.
Even in Naruto's view, the current Sasuke is completely different from the person in his impression.
In fact, it is not only Naruto who thinks this way, even Itachi at the side also feels that Sasuke's aura is far from the younger brother in his impression.
"It's been a long time since we met, Sasuke."
While speaking, Itachi stood up from the ground.
For Sasuke's growth, Itachi is also very pleased.
However, Sasuke has no plans to greet Itachi.
He looked directly at Itachi.
The tone was somewhat questioning, "Itachi, why did you leave Konoha?"
Sasuke has never been able to understand the reason Itachi left Konoha.
He is not only a well-known genius of the Uchiha clan, but also the eldest son of the former patriarch.
If he hadn't left Konoha, it would probably be Itachi who would take over the Uchiha clan now and become the patriarch.
No……
Sasuke shook his head.
In his opinion, Itachi is better than Qing and Setsuna in terms of combat thinking and actual combat experience.
He can even become the captain of the Konoha Police Department.
However, Itachi, who should have a bright future, chose to betray Konoha and Hefeng.
In his heart, there was really no way to understand.
"Hefeng, it's not as good as you think." Itachi replied without thinking.
"In order to become Konoha's Hokage, Hefeng used unnatural means."
Anyway, Sasuke is now a Konoha Shinobi player.
Itachi also feels that there are some things that should be told to the current Sasuke.
The truth about leaving Konoha.
And what Hefeng did back then.
And when he heard that Itachi's defection to Konoha was related to Hefeng, Naruto on the side immediately cheered up.
"Unusual means?" Sasuke frowned subconsciously, feeling unable to understand the meaning of Itachi's words.
Brother Hefeng became the strongest in Uchiha at the age of fifteen.
Even his father Fugaku is no match for him.
It also contributed to the quelling of wars in the village.
If even such a ninja can't become Hokage.
Who else is eligible to be Konoha's Fifth Hokage?
"Could it be..."
Suddenly, Sasuke who looked at Itachi's eyes widened in shock, as if he realized something in his heart.
"The one who wants to be Fifth Hokage, is that you?"
While talking, Sasuke couldn't help thinking that Itachi had failed to fight Hefeng for power, so he was forced to leave the village.
However, Itachi immediately shook his head and denied it, saying that he did not have such ambitions.
Even his current Ninja Dao still believes that ninjas are the ones who should silently guard peace in the dark.
And Hefeng's way of declaring war on the Kingdom of Thunder with great fanfare undoubtedly ran counter to his Ninja Way.
Then he told the truth of the year.
"Third Hokage has never supported Hefeng becoming Fifth Hokage."
"Master Third Hokage once told me that he wanted the legendary Sannin."
"Master Jiraiya, or Master Tsunade to succeed Fifth Hokage."
"But even so, Hefeng became Fifth Hokage in the end."
Itachi paused for a moment, and further explained to Sasuke, "I don't have any opinion on Hefeng becoming Hokage."
"Only after my investigation, the way Hefeng became Hokage was not because of the support of Third Hokage and daimyo."
"Instead..."
When it came to this, Itachi deliberately raised the volume, and then revealed an astonishing secret.
"Through Sharingan's illusion, turn Third Hokage, as well as the daimyo of the country of fire, into his puppets."
Facing Sasuke and Naruto, Itachi directly revealed the truth of the year.
Perhaps Hefeng is indeed a once-in-a-century genius of the Uchiha clan.
Konoha under his management is also thriving.
But he did use the Sharingan illusion on the Daimyo, and Third Hokage.
This is an unalterable fact.
Also pretty bad behavior.
This is also the reason why Itachi couldn't really recognize Hefeng in his heart.
Even if he and Ten Zang had been to Konoha after Hefeng's reform, he was shocked by the changes in the village.
Also think Jiraiya and Tsunade will not be better than Hefeng.
However, from Itachi's point of view, this is completely different.
Just because Hefeng has done good deeds, the evil deeds he committed cannot be selectively forgotten.
What's more, the illusion that Hefeng cast on Third Hokage was the Distinguished Heavenly Gods left by Shisui.
With Shisui's eyes, he did what Shisui least wanted to do!
Whether it is public or private, Itachi cannot recognize Hefeng.
"It's a question of whether you're on the right path."
After finishing speaking, Itachi looked at Sasuke seriously.
It has to be said that the so-called truth in his mouth really made Sasuke and Naruto feel slapped in the face.
Especially Naruto, his eyes are more exaggerated than a bull's eyes, and his mouth can't help opening into an "oh" shape.
And it was exaggerated as if it could fit a fist into it.
"Cheat, lie, right?"
"How could Big Brother Hefeng use illusion on Grandpa Sarutobi?"
When I think of Brother Hefeng, he is gentle and considerate, and he can cook delicious meals.
Naruto is unwilling to believe that Hefeng will use illusion to control Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage.
Not only him, but Sasuke also felt incredible about what Itachi said.
Brother Hefeng, how could he do such a thing?
"This, this is impossible!"
For a moment, Sasuke quickly shook his head in denial, "Brother Hefeng is a man, he would never do such a thing."
"Also, he has no reason to do such a thing."
"Brother Hefeng, he is undoubtedly the best ninja ever!"
Sasuke's idea is also very simple.
If someone as good as Hefeng is not qualified to be Hokage.
Looking at Konoha, who else is qualified to be Konoha's Hokage?
No!
Since Hokage is none other than Hefeng, why would he do this?
Faced with Sasuke's denial, Itachi was not surprised at all.
"The reason why you think so is nothing more than seeing Konoha now."
"But today, six years ago, it was a different situation."
"At that time, Hefeng was really strong, but he also showed his sharpness."
"Third Hokage is worried that after Hefeng becomes Hokage, he will have Danzo's ambition to unify the ninja world."
"This triggered the Fourth Ninja World War, so I don't think Hefeng is the ideal candidate."
"Hefeng at the time knew this very well, so he chose this extreme method to ensure that he became Hokage."
While speaking, Itachi sighed helplessly.
In any case, he and Hefeng have known each other for many years.
The relationship was also very good when I was a child.
If it wasn't for the solid evidence, he wouldn't want to believe that Hefeng really committed such an evil deed.
So, he further explained the reason why he left the village.
He broke into the daimyo mansion alone.
Thus, the fact that the daimyo was controlled by illusion was discovered.
I wanted to make this evil act public, so that Hefeng would be punished as he should.
However, the people of the Uchiha clan, whether it is Qing or Setsuna, regard Hefeng as the savior.
Even if it was such an evil deed, they not only acquiesced in Hefeng's correctness, but also fully supported it.
"In order not to reveal the truth, that fellow Qing even killed his daimyo."
Uchiha Itachi is powerful and powerful.
No matter which ninja village it is, it is a heinous crime to attack a daimyo.
It is a sin that can never be forgiven.
Only Hefeng.
He didn't just do that.
Even without any punishment, he became Konoha's Hokage!
"You should understand now, Sasuke."
"It should be the person who defected from the S-rank ninja, and the person who should leave Konoha should be Hefeng."
While speaking, Itachi spread out his hands, as if opening his heart and arms to Sasuke.
Hope Sasuke can believe in himself.
It has to be said that this fact has indeed given Naruto, Sasuke's heart, a great impact.
Especially Sasuke.
His brain couldn't help but go blank.
Because all these years, he has always hoped that Itachi can return to the village, to the Uchiha station.
So he also secretly investigated the events of that year.
The result was that Itachi defected to Konoha because of the crime of assassinating Daimyo.
Now I hear Itachi's confession.
The whole thing was turned upside down at once.
The person who killed Daming was obviously Qing.
The captain of the police force who carries Konoha's justice on his back!
"Brother Hefeng, that's not the kind of person!"
But different from Sasuke, although Naruto was also taken aback by Itachi's news, but compared to Itachi.
In his heart, he was more willing to believe in Hefeng.
Even at this moment, Naruto couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and set aside the agreement between him and Sasuke.
"shave!"
Accompanied by Naruto's loud cry, he stepped on his feet dozens of times within a few tenths of a second, and with the help of the reaction force generated by the continuous stepping, he rushed towards Itachi.
The speed was so fast that Itachi and Sasuke were a little unexpected.
And Naruto grabbed his fist with five fingers, released a black-purple airflow, wrapped around his wrist, and finally smashed towards Itachi's chest with all his strength.
"Naruto!" Seeing this, Sasuke quickly stopped Naruto's impulse.
Also use Lightning Style Chakra Mode.
Dazzling thunder burst out from Sasuke's body, activating all his muscles and cells.
In this mode, his speed is slightly better than Naruto's six-style shaving.
In an instant, Sasuke caught up with Naruto who was charging towards Itachi, and used his Sharingan to lock Naruto's attack path.
He stretched out his palm and blocked Naruto's attack before he punched Itachi hard.
In an instant, Naruto and Sasuke collided powerfully with each other.
Rumble!
The loud noise was like thunder falling from the sky.
A terrifying air current was generated at the place where the two collided strongly, sweeping in all directions.
Itachi's chest was the first to receive a strong impact, and he was forced to step back.
Although he has many disagreements with Hefeng, he has no doubts about Hefeng's strength.
With Sasuke's current strength, even looking at the entire Akatsuki organization, they are all existences that can be ranked among the top few.
This is enough to show that Hefeng's teaching is quite scary.
"Sasuke, what are you doing?"
Naruto looked back at Sasuke.
If Sasuke just wants to educate Itachi and bring him back to Konoha, then he has nothing to say.
But now, Itachi is slandering Brother Hefeng.
This made him unacceptable.
"Listen to me, Naruto."
"I can understand your current mood, but the one who defeats Itachi must be me."
However, it is different from what Naruto imagined.
The reason Sasuke stopped was not to protect his big brother, Uchiha Itachi.
Just to teach Itachi a lesson.
"The one who brings Itachi back to the village must also be me."
Sasuke emphasized to Naruto with a serious face.
In any case, Itachi is his big brother.
It is an unchangeable fact that blood is thicker than water.
As for whether what Itachi said is true.
Just go back to the village.
As long as you confront Big Brother Hefeng, the truth will be revealed.
"Sasuke." Naruto frowned.
Although he was very angry with Itachi's behavior, he thought about the relationship between himself and Sasuke.
Think of him as your first friend.
Naruto's furrowed brow finally relaxed again.
"Ok."
He nodded and decided to hand Itachi over to Sasuke himself.
Then, Naruto glanced at Itachi again.
The blame in his eyes increased a bit.
Then, Naruto kicked his feet hard and backed away from Sasuke.
After finishing Naruto, Sasuke turned around. Refocus your gaze on Itachi.
"Moonwalk."
With a low voice, Sasuke walked through the air and chased after Itachi.
Seeing Sasuke's still determined expression, Itachi felt puzzled.
"Even if you know that Hefeng has committed an unforgivable crime, do you still want to stand by his side?"
Itachi couldn't help but question Sasuke.
"Could it be that the current Akatsuki is doing the right thing?"
Sasuke met Itachi's eyes, and turned back without hesitation.
"Running to other villages, not to mention taking away Jinchūriki from other villages, and seriously injuring Kazekage of the other party."
"Is that right?"
"Also, the goal of the Akatsuki organization is to collect all the Jinchūriki, right?"
"This means that whether it is Naruto or Karin, they will all be taken away by them."
"Is that correct too?"
In his eyes, what Hefeng did was at least much more aboveboard than the Xiao organization.
The most important thing is that Hefeng really loves Konoha.
If it weren't for Third Hokage not being optimistic about Hefeng in choosing Fifth Hokage.
Nothing like that will happen.
While refuting Itachi, Sasuke rushed directly in front of Itachi with Lightning Style Chakra Mode, he raised his right leg suddenly, and threw a whip leg at Itachi's left shoulder.
Only this time with the enhancement of Lightning Style Chakra Mode, both speed and strength have been greatly enhanced.
Even a genius like Itachi couldn't resist.
Of course, although he couldn't defend against Sasuke's attack, he responded anyway.
The weasel's body began to crack at a speed visible to the naked eye, transforming into black crows.
"Ahhhhhh..."
The cry of crows was endless.
It means that Sasuke's attack only hit a crow Shadow Clone of Itachi.
The real Itachi appeared behind Sasuke.
Since the reasoning doesn't make sense, we can only see the kung fu at hand.
If their identity is defeated by Sasuke here, they will support the battle on the other side.
As a result, Kisame lost.
It was still about four hours before Shukaku was completely drawn out of Gaara's body.
No matter what, I have to hold on.
However, despite what he said, Itachi still felt the pressure facing Sasuke today.
After all, I only have 50% of the Chakra volume of the body.
Unable to exert full strength.
"Sasuke, now you are more and more like Hefeng."
I don't know if it was influenced by Hefeng, but when he refuted himself, he suddenly saw the shadow of Hefeng in him.
But Itachi just complained about it.
There are clean seals on his hands.
The body takes a big breath and gathers the Chakra down the throat.
The lungs swell with massive inflation.
"Fire Style. Great Fireball Technique!"
In the next instant, Itachi's chest dried up quickly, and a large number of flames gathered together to form a giant Great Fireball with a diameter of more than six meters.
And this fireball is not as simple as maintaining it in front of Itachi.
Instead, it was released directly towards Sasuke.
A wave of heat hit Sasuke.
Naruto also hurriedly reminded Sasuke to be careful behind him at the critical moment.
But why does Sasuke need reminders from others now?
Although his opponent this time was Itachi, he had already made such mental preparations before rushing here.
"I can't lose, and I won't lose."
Sasuke stared slightly, watching the raging fire in front of him.
At this moment, he chose not to dodge or avoid.
Grasping the five fingers firmly together, he aimed at the fireball in front of him and swung it with all his strength.
Boom!
The lightning power accumulated in Sasuke's fist burst out immediately.
Forcibly split the flying fireball into two.
This is where Sasuke's Lightning Style Chakra is now strong.
Watching Sasuke grow amazingly. Itachi was also surprised.
"Moonwalk!"
Relying on the skillful use of the six styles, Sasuke directly chose to step on the air with both feet, and rushed through the gap in the fireball.
"Even if your crow Shadow Clone Technique saves Chakra compared to ordinary Shadow Clone, it's not completely useless."
"And the moves I use are pure ninjutsu, which consume less Chakra than you."
Sasuke snapped.
Wanting Itachi to understand, blindly using the Crow Shadow Clone Technique to evade his own attack is just a waste of time.
He did bring Itachi back to the village.
But he also wanted to beat Itachi head-on.
Use this to prove yourself.
"You may be right."
"An ordinary ninjutsu like Great Fireball is indeed no match for you."
Seeing the menacing Sasuke, Itachi also had to recognize the truth.
Today's Sasuke is no longer the one who can't even protect himself.
He is now a disciple of Hefeng.
It's Konoha's excellent ninja!
Thinking of this, Itachi no longer retained his strength.
His eyes were slightly closed.
Sasuke also used Moonwalk to come to him.
Seeing Itachi with his eyes closed, Sasuke couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Obviously it was a little unexpected Itachi's performance.
But then, Itachi's eyes suddenly opened, widening!
Meet Sasuke's Sharingan.
The two sides looked at each other.
Sasuke watched the three-god jade in Itachi's pupils spin rapidly.
And this kind of picture, Sasuke has seen in Hefeng's eyes!
"This is... Mangekyō Sharingan!"
Surprised, Sasuke couldn't help but exclaimed, and at the same time recalled the warning Hefeng had given himself.
His own Itachi is not only a genius in the field of illusion.
After evolving Mangekyō, his illusion ability was further enhanced.
The ordinary three-go jade could not stop his illusion at all.
After realizing this, Sasuke didn't dare to meet Itachi's eyes anymore, and quickly glanced to the other side.
Fortunately, although Sasuke did not master Observation Haki like Xianglin.
But he can judge the opponent's next move based on the opponent's slight movement.
After avoiding Itachi's Sharingan, Sasuke quickly looked at Itachi's hands and feet.
Find out whether it's your hands or your feet.
Itachi didn't move.
This surprised Sasuke a little bit.
He thought Itachi would definitely seize this opportunity and repel him.
However, although he didn't know what Itachi was thinking, he didn't show mercy.
The five fingers immediately joined together, forming a knife-like hand.
Cut towards Itachi's left shoulder.
Because of using the Six Forms like Moonwalk, Sasuke's feet are on the air.
There is no difference in height.
It's just that Itachi turned on Mangekyō, not to be beaten by Sasuke.
The moment Mangekyō is turned on.
A crimson Chakra spread from Itachi's body.
Seen from a distance, it looks like a flame formed by Chakra completely enveloping his body.
Naruto, who saw this scene for the first time, was quite surprised.
But in the next moment, Naruto saw white bones emerging from Itachi's back out of thin air.
His two eyes also widened a lot.
As for the Lightning Style hand knife that Sasuke swung out, it hit Susanoo straight.
Rumble!
The two forces collided strongly at this moment.
The shock wave that was set off spread out in all directions.
Uproot all the flowers and plants in the vicinity.
Even Naruto, who was standing in the distance, could not escape the impact of the completion of the two.
Stand firmly on the heels on the ground, and slide directly on the grass to go eight feet away.
The blowing wind made it even more difficult for Naruto to open his eyes, so he had to use his arms to resist.
Only then did I barely see the situation clearly.
I saw that the dense white bones not only formed a spine behind Itachi, but also extended to the soles of his feet.
A snow-white arm extended from the shoulder.
Forcibly blocked Sasuke's Lightning Style hand knife completely.
And it's intact.
No one knows better than Naruto the power of Sasuke's Lightning Style hand knife.
Whether it's sharp kunai or hard rock.
It can be easily destroyed.
But now, it's impossible to break through Itachi's ninjutsu!
This really shocked Naruto.
But when it comes to shock, the same is true in Itachi's heart.
Although he blocked Sasuke's attack, the impact came straight to his body through his Susanoo.
If he hadn't experienced it personally, he wouldn't have believed that the current Sasuke would have such exaggerated power.
"Susanoo is one of the strongest ninjutsu I can use right now."
"And those who are forced have to use this trick."
"It just means that Sasuke is becoming very dangerous now..."
For a moment, Itachi couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.
I really don't know what Hefeng has taught in the past six years...
