Chapter 18: Saving Sasuke
Sasuke stood there quietly, not saying anything, he hadn't looked at Itachi since he glanced at it just now, as if in his eyes, the person he couldn't ignore for the rest of his life no longer existed.
The scene fell silent for a while, Otsukikoshi and Sasuke looked at each other, and even Naruto, who was usually noisy, didn't say anything more.
"I want to know why," Otsuki said.
"Why?" Sasuke raised his chin and looked at the other party arrogantly, sneering, "Why did you lose?" ”
Otsuki shook his head, "No, I wonder why you want to stop me at all costs?" ”
"You don't need to know" Sasuke said lightly, "Oh yes, I forgot to tell you that the shrine maiden betrayed you a long time ago, a long time ago"
"Wu... Woman? Otsuki Kikoshi seemed to have been hit hard, his pupils dilated, as if he had seen the deepest fear, and he couldn't help but tremble.
"It's desperate, the one you trust the most, the only person around you has betrayed you, people like you are a mistake from beginning to end" A trace of complicated emotions flashed in Sasuke's eyes, and then his eyes became more and more cold, and finally he spit out a faint sentence "It's over, hmm... Ahem"
"Sasuke!" Naruto exclaimed, and hurriedly helped Sasuke, who suddenly fell to his knees.
Naruto could feel that Sasuke was trembling, and his clothes were already soaked with cold sweat, but the temperature of his skin was terrifyingly high, his already pale face was already a little blue, his lips were tightly pursed, and the sound he made was like a scream, it was obvious that he was now suffering from torture that Naruto couldn't understand.
Sakura and Karyo quickly came to Sasuke's side, but they couldn't do anything other than treat some external injuries.
"The internal organs are badly damaged, which... How can it be! Sakura looked at Naruto with a pale face, "I have to go back to Konoha to find Master right away!" ”
"Fuck off! What did you do to Sasuke! Naruto angrily rushed at Otsukikoshi and knocked him to the ground.
"You should ask Sasuke-kun what he did to himself" Otsukikoshi smiled sadly, looked sideways at Itachi, who was always standing motionless, and said sympathetically: "If he dies, the murderer is you!"
"What do you say again, you crazy woman! Dare to hurt Sasuke, I'm going to kill you! As he spoke, Naruto pinched Kikoshi's neck, with enough force to break it.
"Hey, little fox, if you still want Sasuke-kun to live, it's best to keep this woman first" A crisp voice suddenly sounded in Naruto's ears.
Naruto subconsciously turned around to look, and saw a slim girl standing a few meters away from him lazily leaning against the trunk of a tree.
Before Naruto could speak, a figure flashed up to the girl, grabbed her shoulders and asked in a trembling voice, "Sasuke is still saved?"
That figure is a ferret! Itachi has always been imprisoned by fear!
"It's just maybe, I'm not sure" The girl turned sideways to avoid Itachi's heartbreakingly fragile eyes, and said slowly: "Sasuke injected a potion that Orochimaru researched that can infinitely overdraw chakra, and used the split body to launch the Suzaku fire, and attacked the woman's two split bodies at the same time, weakening her strength to the greatest extent, at the cost of burning her own flesh, plus the backlash when launching the jutsu, it will be like this, if nothing else, he should not be able to see the sunrise more than three times"
Itachi closed his eyes in despair after hearing this, he didn't expect Sasuke to be so decisive, it seems that this time... Sasuke really won't forgive him, and even take revenge on him at the cost of his life.
Itachi looked back at Sasuke with a heartache, he had been tortured and fell into a coma, but even so, that face was still full of pain, and Itachi finally felt Sasuke's mood back then.
"Then what did the shrine maiden mean by what she just said?" Itachi asked.
"It means..."
"I won't save him" The big barrel Kikoshi, who was pressed to the ground by Naruto, suddenly laughed loudly, "There is a price to pay for stopping me, I can't succeed, and you can't get better, hahahaha, it's painful, it's this kind of despair of watching important people being tortured to death!" Uchiha Sasuke, it turns out that you are more ruthless than me, hahaha, it is really a natural revenge... Ugh"
"Mad woman! You shut up! Naruto was furious.
"Ahem... Hmph, Sasuke Uchiha is dead, and you don't expect to use that resurrection technique again! ”
"What do you mean?" Itachi asked, he did have such a plan.
"The person who used that technique has signed a contract with Suzaku, and after the end of his life, his soul will not go to the same place as ordinary people to rest in peace, so all resurrection techniques, including the one used on you, are useless," the shrine maiden explained.
"Damn!" Naruto let go of the big barrel Kigoshi, "What the hell do you need to save Sasuke!" ”
"I'm not going to save him!" Otsuki sat up with his neck clutched, looking at Itachi's eyes full of pity and ridicule.
