"He was the one who beat that kid from the Kurama family to the point of shock a few days ago, and he was really ruthless."

"Yes, sir. Three sixth-year students besieged Uchiha Itachi, only to find that one person went into shock, two broke bones, and are now lying in Konoha Hospital. Despite this, the ninja school did not impose any punishment on the grounds that the three seniors struck first and the Uchiha Itachi was only defending himself. ”

"Really?"

Tuan Zang frowned slightly.

Every teacher at the ninja school praised him, saying that he was a genius from the first day of the ninja school. It is determined that you can graduate early after four months of enrollment. I have already registered for my graduation exams in April next year.

Listening to the words of some admiration from his subordinates, the anger on Tuan Zang's face gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a smile that inadvertently appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"This year, the competition for newcomers in various departments seems to be just yesterday, and in a blink of an eye, it is about to start again."

Danzou picked up the document from the table and flipped through it carefully.

"Yes, sir."

Danzo lifted his heavy body and stood up from his hardwood chair.

As the third generation of Hokage Ape Flying Sun to slash the shadows in the darkness, Danzo, who is responsible for carrying out various dark missions, has passed the golden age of ninjas.

It's not going to be dead soon, but what about ten or twenty years from now?

In any case, there are things that must be done before you are too old to move.

Some dreams, even if they put in a lifetime of hard work and fight for this life, must be realized.

"Haven't you been brainwashed by the Uchiha clan yet?"

Danzang's gaze moved to the window.

Inside the huge underground structure, there is a creepy dark atmosphere in the dim light.

He looked out the window with a fascination on everything.

There was silence in the room.

The dark part kneeling on the ground seemed to be frozen by the cold smell emanating from Tuan Zang's body, and he didn't dare to move.

"Let's find a chance to meet first. The kid named Itachi Uchiha. ”

。。。。。。。。

Deep in the Konoha Forest.

Uchiha Itachi stood at the top of the cliff, staring at the rushing river below, his face full of hesitation.

"The art of the crow clone."

In his previous life, Uchiha Itachi was the best at and most commonly used ninjutsu.

Only a small amount of chakra is needed to create a clone made of crows.

Since it is a living creature, it is difficult for enemies without special pupil skills to see through it.

You can use crows to attack, and you can even disturb the minds of enemies and take advantage of the opportunity to perform illusions.

For Itachi Uchiha, who is known for his illusion and analytical skills, this is his favorite technique.

But to complete this technique, what is needed is not an ordinary crow, but the legendary sacred bird, the "Eight Crows" who can travel between reality and the underworld at will.

In order to find this particular crow, he had been searching in the woods on the other side of the river for a whole month.

But I didn't even see a single crow.

Do you have to jump off this cliff before the crows will appear when they are dying?

The Uchiha's eyes landed on the surface of the river a full few dozen meters from the top of the cliff.

Jumping from here, if there is no eight crows to save you, there will only be death, right?

He hesitated, never taking that last step.

。。。。。。。。

In the previous life, Uchiha Itachi didn't know what went crazy and jumped from the top of the cliff.

By the time he reacted, he was only half a step away from death.

Just before the hand of death touched him, a group of eight ravens suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rescued the six-year-old Itachi.

From that day on, these black crows, who were born with three legs and had blood-red eyes that were exactly the same as the Uchiha clan's blood inheritance limit, the Sharingan, became his closest companions.

accompanied him through a short and dark life, and never left him until death.

。。。。。。。。

Itachi Uchiha looked at the sky.

The sky was so clear and so blue at that time. There is not a single cloud.

What if the friends from the previous life didn't show up?

Then, all the efforts so far, the dream of killing Danzou and saving the Uchiha clan will come to naught.

It's like a beautiful soap bubble that bursts in an instant and then disappears into the air, leaving no trace.

I don't know how long it toes, but Uchiha Itachi finally made a decision.

He bit his lip tightly, controlled his body with unimaginable willpower, and jumped forward gently.

Will he be greeted by heaven, hell, or neither?

The Uchiha Itachi closed his eyes and let his body slam into the river like a rock that had accidentally slipped from the top of a cliff.

The sound of the wind roaring in his ears.

The river breeze on the autumn night was a little cold, and it made his young face ache faintly.

Still, his heart had never been so calm, as if this was what he had been looking forward to.

The roar of the river was getting louder and louder, and the splash was already wetting his black hair.

He knew that he was only one step away from death.

"Flutter. Flutter... ”

The sound of countless birds flapping their wings rang out.

The Uchiha Itachi's rapidly falling body magically stopped in mid-air.

Countless black crows seemed to suddenly appear from another dimension, wrapping his thin body and flying towards the other side of the river.

Relieved, he opened his eyes.

There was a chill that pierced to the bone.

Only then did he realize that his whole body was soaked with cold sweat.

I was still afraid of death after all.

He smiled wryly.

It was as if sensing his thoughts.

A black crow flying directly in front of Itachi Uchiha's body turned its head and looked him in the eye.

There was an undisguised sneer in the blood-colored pupils.

"Don't say it's you, old friend. It's me, and I want to laugh at my current self. ”

He reached out in the air to caress the black jade-like feathers on the crow's body.

The black crow gently leaned his whole body over and rubbed his neck against Uchiha Itachi's face affectionately.

Uchiha Itachi's gaze fell on the three fiery red magatama hanging from the black crow's neck with a black rope.

His body shook, and he was stunned in the air.

"Eight-foot Qiong Hook Jade."

One of the three legendary artifacts.

In the previous life, it took him several years.

Eventually, in a shrine that dates back to ancient times, the artifact that was thought to no longer exist in this world was found.

For the sake of these seemingly ordinary three Magatama, the ancient clan, the Qiongyu clan that has a history of hundreds of years in this world, was finally wiped out at the hands of Uchiha Itachi.

His hands were also stained with the blood of hundreds of innocent people.

In this life, the ancient clan should still be alive and well.

If it hadn't been for the ferret, it might have lasted forever.

But how could the eight-foot Qiongyu jade, an artifact that the Qiongyu clan had worshiped for generations, appear on the crow's neck?
