Chapter 64: Itachi's despair, Itachi's decision
"It's unimaginable that such a man would leave such a thing behind and commit suicide." The three of them spoke in a few words, and Itachi also finished reading the suicide note of Zhishui.
"I'm tired of the mission, there is no future for the Uchiha clan if this continues, and so am I, I can't do anything that goes against the norm anymore." Reading between the lines, Itachi read the exhaustion and despair of stopping the water, and facing the three people in front of him, he said lightly: "Don't judge a person based on superficial and conjecture (here Itachi is talking about stopping water). ”
"Anyway, the suicide note is placed here for you first, take this, you go and ask the dark department to assist in the investigation!" The tone was slinging, the men said.
"Understood...... "Itachi said lightly.
"It's best if you have a clue!"
"Also, we have other channels of contact with the Dark Ministry, and if you put your application for investigation assistance on hold without authorization, we will know immediately." These words clearly make it clear that Itachi is a suspect.
At this point, the three-hook jade writing wheel eye appeared, and the weasel face was a little hideous and said to the other three pairs of writing wheel eyes: "Just say it directly!" Are you suspicious of me? ”
"Yes! Stinky boy! The man with long black hair confessed.
"Listen up! Weasel! The short-haired gray man said, "If you do something to betray our family, we won't give up!" ”
"Betrayal of the family...... Betrayal of the family...... Betraying the family......" The roar in their hearts became more and more urgent, and Itachi came to them with a teleportation technique.
Then, the speed of the cat and the agility of the butterfly, the same writing wheel eyes, but the three of them had no room to fight back at all, and they all fell to the ground.
"I just said it! Don't judge a person based on superficial and speculative assumptions, I don't care, you judge and doubt at will. Clan...... Clan...... Those of you who talk about this misjudge the size of your own power, and you don't know the strength of my power at all, so you're just going back there now. ”
"Stop the water...... Recently, he has been spying on you, and you have been in the shadows for half a year, and he has seen your recent actions very strangely, what the hell are you thinking? The short-haired gray man said.
"Blame it on a dead man?" With a sneer in his heart, the weasel said coldly: "Obsessed with the organization, obsessed with the clan, and obsessed with anything else, this is a taboo thing that restricts oneself and restricts one's ability." And now, the fear and hatred of the unknown is stupid! ”
Resisting change, when the world is developing rapidly and the ninja clan in the ninja world has evolved to the alliance, the people of the Uchiha clan are still clinging to one clan.
The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and the wrong perception of one's own power is not aware of it, and it is still going further and further in the wrong direction.
"Despair...... Is this the desperation of stopping the water? With such a stubborn heart, I don't dare to take a step into the future, and I am also desperate for the failed family......" Itachi thought faintly in his heart.
"Shut up! Weasel! Suddenly, Uchiha Fugaku came to this side, and he asked Itachi, "I ask you, do you know what you're doing?" Itachi, you've been a little weird lately. ”
"Is it strange? There's nothing strange about it, I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do, that's all. Itachi said lightly.
"Then why didn't you come last night?" Uchiha Fugaku asked again.
"To get close to the top!" With a casual shot, the kunai shot on the wall printed with the Uchiha clan emblem, and Itachi, who had done this, said lightly: "I already feel desperate for this useless clan......
"Useless clan ......" Sasuke, who was observing from the sidelines, recalled the past, at that time, Itachi carried him on his back and proudly said to the family crest of the Uchiha clan: "Since a long time ago, the Uchiha clan has been in charge of the security work of this village, and the Uchiha family crest is also a proof of our clan's pride." ”
At the same time, one night, Fugaku said to Itachi what he wanted to get: "It is worthy of being my son, and I am happy for you from the bottom of my heart when I enter the dark part!" ”
"Why? Brother, why did you become like this? ”
"Because you are clinging to something as small as the "family", you will lose the things that are really important. Real change cannot be constrained by rules, limited by premonition and imagination. ”
"You're so arrogant!" The long-haired man in black said.
"Arrogant? The Great Black Demon King, the World Destroyer, the Black Dragon Princess, the woman called Uchiha Ai that you don't even dare to mention by name, that's the real arrogance! ”
"Enough! That's a taboo for the clan, don't you know! The short-haired gray man said sternly: "If you talk nonsense, we will only put you in prison." ”
"And then? Like the Uchiha Hikari, is it unknown to die? Itachi sneered.
"Arrogance! It's so arrogant! "The fact that they can't see people is publicized, and the intense shame makes them want to kill.
"Brother! Stop! "Going farther and farther on the road of a sober loner, although Sasuke doesn't understand much of the truth, he knows that if he continues like this, his brother won't be able to come back. So, he interrupted.
"I ...... Arrogant? Awakened by Sasuke's words, the excited Itachi regained consciousness, he sighed in his heart, and knelt on the ground, and said with five bodies on the ground: "I wasn't the one who killed Shisui, but I apologize for my gaffe just now." I'm so sorry! ”
“…… Recently, you were so busy with a mission in the shadows that you suddenly threw yourself into the river to stop the water. Presumably, you're a little tired! Uchiha Fugaku said.
"Captain!" Fu Yue's side, the three of them shouted excitedly. Obviously, with this gesture of Fuyue, they knew that he was trying to speak for Itachi.
"The Shadow Department is a direct unit belonging to the Hokage, even if we are a garrison, we can't arrest him without an arrest warrant. Moreover, I'll be in charge of monitoring the matter of the ferret! Please! "Speaking of which, the other three are not good at saying anything.
After that, the matter was settled.
Of course, Sasuke thinks so. As for what kind of turmoil is within the Uchiha clan, what kind of calculations the Konoha high-level is, and what kind of conspiracy is on the side of the Uchiha Yan in the wild, all of this is meaningless.
Because, the reality is a naughty child, what do you want it to do, it will do something unexpected, and the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha Village is no exception.
In the days that followed, because of Shizui's death, the high-ups of Konoha gave Itachi a choice at the last minute.
Is it to choose the family, and Konoha are you alive or dead? Or do it yourself, for the sake of the righteousness of the village?
Itachi chose to kill his relatives in righteousness, which is not because Itachi loves Konoha so much. For Itachi, the choice is a question of choosing fewer or more dead.
Standing at the height of an alliance that is higher than his family and village, he chooses the choice of fewer people to die and puts forward his own demands.
Sasuke Uchiha is a child who doesn't know it, and the Uchiha Miku is the offspring of heroes, and he hopes that Konoha can give both of them a way out.
Eventually, the request was passed by Sarutobi, and Itachi began his own actions......
