Chapter 376: Interception
Nanga Shrine is a secret place of worship for the Uchiha family, one of the two legendary ninja clans that founded Konoha Village.
Except for the patriarch, the elders of the family, and the descendants who have been licensed, no one else is allowed to enter.
Without opening the writing wheel, it is even more difficult to know where this is located.
Before the catastrophe of the night of the extermination, Uchiha Sasuke had only heard of this place, but had never been there.
It wasn't until he opened the Three Hooks Jade Writing Wheel that he discovered some secrets that he hadn't seen in the past in a family collection.
Originally, the location of Nanga Shrine was not located in Konoha Village, but after two major expansions twelve and five years ago, the current location of Nanga Shrine is already included in the area to be developed.
According to the technique in the book, the door to Nanga Shrine was opened with difficulty, and Uchiha Sasuke walked down very smoothly.
The oil lamp on the wall of the corridor, which has not been maintained for a long time, has been completely extinguished.
Carrying the lamp, under the flickering firelight, the slightly emaciated Uchiha Sasuke slowly moved forward, his heart full of anticipation.
If it weren't for the cultivation of chakra refinement, as well as form changes and nature changes, it would have been really not an easy task to reach the level of the Three Hook Jade Writing Wheel Eyes so quickly.
When he felt a surge of new power from his eyes, Uchiha Sasuke's heart swelled with pride.
One step closer to Uchiha Itachi, the hope of revenge is one point bigger.
At the end of the corridor is a small room that is not particularly large.
Walking here, Uchiha Sasuke was about to light the wall lamp that still had kerosene left nearby, and suddenly, the nearby fire was bright, and Uchiha Sasuke, who was caught off guard, involuntarily reached out to cover his eyes.
When he realized that something was wrong, the young man who took a few steps back to guard saw an emaciated figure kneeling in front of him.
"Who?"
"It's finally here, and I've been waiting for a long time!"
The visitor stood up and turned slowly.
Because she was wearing a night suit and a hood on her head, she couldn't see her face in the shadows clearly, but she could still tell that it was a slender woman, judging by her voice, she shouldn't be very old.
Although I don't know who the other party is, in my eyes, the strange red light, and the three hooks that are the same as myself, make Uchiha Sasuke feel shocked.
"Writing wheels? This...... How can it be? β
"Original...... I don't remember anything! β
Izumi Uchiha, who has regained her fifteen or sixteen-year-old size, has long known that Uchiha Sasuke has been used many times to use clever illusions and modify his memory, and until now, there is still a large part of the key information, which is locked in the depths of his mind and cannot be remembered.
"That stinky fart kid who only knows how to be coquettish next to the ferret has opened the writing wheel eye at such a young age. If the family is still around, you shouldn't be much worse than him......"
"You know me? Besides that guy, there are still people alive? β
"There are too many hidden secrets in this world, you ...... If you all know, I'm afraid you will completely lose the pursuit of beautiful things. β
The slender figure who said lifted his hood, revealing a familiar and somewhat unfamiliar face.
"Are you...... Izumi? β
"Izumi is going to be called! You seem to be more aloof than the Weasel is. You should pay more attention to the people around you, and you should not ignore people outside the family too much, otherwise you will ......"
Once, the man who combined wealth and power to the fullest, when evaluating the Uchiha family in the past, said a word disdainfully, and Uchiha Izumi still remembers it in her heart.
"Thousand hands look at the entire ninja world, and the Uchiha only has a thousand hands in his eyes. The difference in vision and pattern is doomed to the sad end of the family, you ...... Don't repeat the mistakes of the past. β
"But, why are you here, aren't you already dead?"
"It doesn't matter!"
Izumi Uchiha shook her head very calmly,
"The dead should not have been in front of you. It's just that the time when you opened the three-hook jade writing wheel eye was too advanced. Now, it's not time for you to come to this place......"
Children who are too immature in their minds, looking at the inheritance stele here, have been tampered with by Hei Jue, which is bound to cause some unnecessary trouble.
Originally, Gu Shanbu Shui wanted to eliminate this hidden danger in advance, but after actually looking at it, he found that the stone tablet left by the Six Dao Immortals was really not an ordinary thing, and it was modified three times and twice, which might cause some unnecessary trouble.
However, he has not yet become a shinobi, and the bond of the seventh class does not exist now, and Uchiha Sasuke cannot be affected by it.
"I don't understand, the death of a loved one, the betrayal of a fellow countryman, it doesn't matter? Here, there is the most core secret of our family, and the power of revenge can be obtained, why can't I come? β
"Next year's Obon, if you still want this cursed power, I won't stop you, now, too early contact will only usher in an unfortunate end. To a certain extent, the family's fall to the current situation is inseparable from the power of inheriting the stone tablet. β
"Next year...... Obon? β
At the end of August and the beginning of September, there was a difference of nearly 13 months from now, and it was not that I couldn't afford to wait for the beginning of a year.
"Wouldn't it be too perfunctory to tell me nothing?"
"If you knew what was up there, you would know, but unfortunately, I can't tell you ......"
"That'...... All right! β
Uchiha Sasuke also understands that with his current state, he can't hold it with too much strength.
"Are you the only one alive? Or is there someone else? β
"You don't have to look at me so hopefully! You don't even have the qualifications to know now! The mountain people in the village are proficient in mind reading, and even people who have just died can dig out their memories in their brains. For you now, knowing too much is a danger in itself, and muddling is the basis for you to survive until now, understand? Don't ask too much about the so-called 'truth' until you have enough strength, you probably can't afford it. β
"That'...... Where have you been all these years? β
Speaking of which, Uchiha Sasuke knew that he couldn't let the other party take the initiative to disclose the news, so he changed the subject,
"Isn't it too accurate to know for the first time that I opened the three-hook jade writing wheel eye, and then came over to intercept it? Could it be that you're watching me from the side? β
His own secret was actually seen in the eyes of others, and Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but worry.
"Let's go back! Here, without what you want, there will be no happy ending......"
"Hmm!"
The cold light flashed in his eyes, and the desire to forcibly break through under the strong pressure, Uchiha Zuosuke Zuosuke half-turned, as if he was about to leave, and then, in the sight of Uchiha Izumi, he suddenly accelerated and ran to the side, intending to bypass and reach the front of the inheritance stone tablet.
"Really...... It's the same! β
The people of the Uchiha family are so stubborn, it is impossible to give up without giving it a try.
Without any action, Izumi Uchiha didn't seem to expect Uchiha Sasuke to do this, and quietly watched the other party's actions.
Just when the young man who was secretly proud in his heart thought that he had succeeded, suddenly, the world whirled, and he came back to his senses again, and he was already lying on the ground.
"It's ...... Magic? Obviously, there are three hooked jade writing wheel eyes, which can rebound illusions, why ......"
"You...... It's still too far off! β
In Uchiha's sight, a black sole quickly approached, imprinted on his face, and then lost consciousness in embarrassment.
"Ninjutsu qualifications are no worse than any family genius, but their temperament is far worse than Itachi. What do you think, ...... Kimimaro?"
In the shadow of the corner of the road, a white-haired boy walked over, obviously a little smaller than Uchiha Izumi, but his strength was stronger.
"I'm not interested in your Uchiha affairs, as long as I don't delay the young master's mission."
Kaguya-kun Maro very unceremoniously grabbed Uchiha Sasuke's clothes, lifted them and threw them on his shoulders, about to send them back.
"What a simple and terrifying man, how naΓ―ve the former family was, thinking that if you get one or two pairs of kaleidoscope writing wheels, you can conquer the ninja world."
The reality is that even Konoha Village couldn't rush out, and then it was wiped out.
Obviously, it is already an era of one village and one country, stable order, and coordinated development, but he is still obsessed with the so-called ninja clan, and he does not know how to be flexible, and he is not wronged at all when he is eliminated.
"Inexplicably, if you want me to say, you should give him an illusion, just make him forget that there is such a thing, why use such a complicated way?"
"How many illusions set up self-restraint in this little brother's body, how many human interventions to tamper with memories, and how many spiritual seals are there? If you stuff it like this, I'm afraid that sooner or later, the brain will burn into a pulp lake. β
"That's his business, it's none of mine. Who made him so restless and looking for some cursed power that was quick to win? β
Kaguya-kun Marotou didn't look back and left, leaving behind fluttering words that floated underground.
Izumi Uchiha smiled wryly, turned around, and looked at the stone monument behind him.
"Kaleidoscope writing wheel eyes are such a thing that people love and hate. Because of it, the family prospered, and because of it, it went into a desperate situation. β
There are still some Uchiha people who are secretly hidden, but there are no backbones left.
Whether it's Uchiha Itachi or Uchiha Sasuke, everyone's mentality towards them is actually very complicated.
The ones who can revive the family are those children who have qualifications, and the sense of presence of others does not need to be strong.
What was reflected in the eyes of the three hook jade writing wheels was the terrible information of "killing relatives and witnesses" that poured into his mind.
"You...... Interested? β
"I don't know! At least for now, I don't want to do it to my loved ones for inexplicable reasons. β
"That's because you've been through so much and understand the mysteries......"
A translucent liquid emerged from Izumi Uchiha's body, gathering into a humanoid shape not far away, and said to the girl,
"Your family's 'killing relatives' ritual is not the key, as long as it can cause shocking mental fluctuations, it can be. The moment when love gives birth to hatred is the most eye-opening, and the ...... of achieving kaleidoscope writing wheels"
"The current Zuosuke, knowing this, will only degenerate into a demon ......"
Izumi Uchiha sighed,
"I don't know how to build bonds, I don't know the value of love, and I blindly kill, I will only lose the already low possibility."
After a pause, Izumi Uchiha turned her head and asked:
"Lord Young Governor, you are not from the Uchiha clan, how can you know so much about the family inheritance stele?"
"Because...... I know who left the stele and who left the most vicious, demagogic falsification on it. Do you know? In this world, the most deceptive thing is not a lie, but every sentence and every word is true, but it has a crooked original meaning. β
"Tampering? What do you mean......"
"I didn't mean anything! Quanmei, do a good job, one day, the truth will be revealed. β
"Uchiha Itachi...... Will it too? β
"Who knows? Our Gusugi clan is not the protagonist of this family argument in the end, and it is not even an important supporting role, but a dispensable background board. β
"That'...... Are we, the lonely ghosts, the Uchiha also a background board? β
"You ...... I guess it's a sacrifice! β
The incarnation of the ancient cedar water said, suddenly, as if he felt something, he looked up,
"Someone is coming, it's really ghostly! It seems that there are many people who want to find the location of Nanga Shrine. β
Without even investigating, Furusugi Bushui already knew who was following Uchiha Sasuke.
"Medicine Master's Pocket? Orochimaru's dog legs, why are you so positive, it seems that you have to find something to do for him, don't ask around all day long. β
"Is there anything I can help me with?"
"Go back, play the role of Uzumi well, and even, hint that you have a connection with Uchiha Izumi, and it would be more perfect to let Uchiha Sasuke have some associations."
"Young Governor, it's really a bad taste."
"It's not just about looking at each other! The power of the Uchiha family comes from mood swings, especially overly suppressed suspicion and hatred, and when it is released, it is more likely to be promoted. β
"That'...... I won't bother you! β
Respectfully bowing, Izumi Uchiha cleaned up the traces of activity in the basement of Nanga Shrine, and then went back without knowing it.
-----------------
At the same time, after getting the information from Jiraiya, the ape Fei Ri, who was very surprised, was eager to immediately terminate the middle ninja exam, and discuss it with Gu Shanbu Shui, about the Temple of Fire, about the matter of guarding the ninja.
Resisting the idea of verifying as soon as possible, the three generations of Hokage invited Mito Menyan and Koharu to discuss countermeasures.
After reading the information, the two advisers also looked at each other, not knowing how to react.
"Are you sure?"
"Jiraiya, it's still worth believing! My disciple, although he is a little stubborn, never contains a lake in major matters. β
"Is it possible that Itachi Uchiha is delivering fake news, or that he has also been deceived?"
The suspicion of turning to Koharu is obviously more serious than Mitomonitis.
"There is a way to verify it, but I am hesitating at what cost to get the truth."
