Inside the ward of Konoha Hospital.

Sasuke, whose eyes were red, sat on the bed and sucked hard.

But this small gesture accidentally touched the wound on his face.

"Shhh

Sasuke gasped and tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"Damn! This guy really doesn't have any mercy at all! ”

Moreover, he has been beating his handsome face just now!

Thinking of this, Sasuke glanced to his side with an indignant expression.

But he happened to meet Naruto's eyes, which directly made his body stiffen

The teasing in those azure eyes couldn't have been more obvious.

"Humph!"

Sasuke's bruised little face was slightly red, and he tilted his head aside in some embarrassment.

Hell knows why he couldn't stop crying just now!

Obviously, you can bear it!

Outcome......

"Damn! This matter will definitely be laughed at by Naruto for the rest of his life! ”

Sasuke hammered the quilt with some irritation, and the sadness and resentment in his heart dissipated somewhat.

That's just at this time.

"Sorry to bother you at this time."

A lazy voice interrupted Sasuke's thoughts, bringing him back to his senses from that mixed emotion.

"However, as the sole survivor of this incident, we still have some things that we need to ask you to check."

Kakashi Hachiki stood in front of Sasuke's hospital bed, holding a notebook and a pen and asked, "According to the information we know, Uchiha Itachi is the culprit who wiped out the Uchiha clan. ”

"So, what is his purpose?"

Hearing the man's name, Sasuke subconsciously clenched his fists, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

And the ...... in the depths of the eyes

Fear.

Call!

Sasuke let out a sigh of relief and forced the emotions in his heart and said, "That man said that he killed his clan to test his strength and gain more power. ”

Test your gas and gain strength?

"That's right."

Kakashi bit the tip of his pen with a distressed expression on his face, and said in a complicated tone, "This is really a speechless reason." ”

Although the whole incident seems to reveal a strange flavor.

However, Sasuke, who was an eyewitness, insisted that the extermination of the clan was done by Uchiha Itachi.

After the incident ended, the Shadows launched a manhunt for the masked man and Uchiha Itachi who claimed to be in the Heavenly Palace.

But the night of the extermination has been more than ten hours now, and the Uchiha Itachi has not been traced.

I'm afraid he's already gone to Konoha a long time ago.

Although the entire Konoha is shrouded in a sealing enchantment, it is not difficult for Uchiha Itachi, who was once the captain of the Dark Part, to obtain a way to open the Konoha enchantment.

In this case, there should be no second possibility other than absconding in fear of crime...... bar.

However, there are still some doubts.

Like, where did the eyes of those Uchiha go?

Another example is the Uchiha who didn't find their bodies.

Were they left dead in battle, or were they ......

They weren't dead at all?

The most suspicious point is why the Uchiha Itachi wiped out the Uchiha clan under Konoha's nose?

Even if you use the identity of the same clan, it is impossible to do it, right?

"Is it ......?"

Kakashi's dead fish eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly remembered the dozens of corpses near the Uchiha clan's land.

According to the survey, those were root ninjas.

This had to remind Kakashi of something that wasn't so good.

Moreover, it seems that the three generations of adults intentionally or unintentionally let the patrol area of the dark ninjas avoid the Uchiha clan.

Only Sarutobi Shinnosuke's team was left there.

Oh, no.

It should be said that only flesh and blood were left.

"I don't know if the three generations of adults can accept such a big blow."

Thinking of this, Kakashi sighed a little helplessly.

Xuan even stood up and said goodbye to Sasuke, "Then thank you for your cooperation, please take a break, I'll leave first." ”

Then he turned and left.

But at this moment.

"Excuse me, what are you going to do with this incident?"

Naruto's indifferent voice rang out, and Kakashi's footsteps couldn't help but stop.

"How?"

A hint of irritation flashed in Kakashi's dead fish eyes, "I'm sorry, these things aren't for you guys to know. ”

In fact, he didn't want to say it so ruthlessly.

According to the investigation and analysis of the intelligence department, there were three main participants in this extermination.

In addition to the Uchiha Itachi who killed the Uchiha Jinachi, there is also a man wearing an orange spiral mask.

Kakashi suspects that he is the one who created the Nine-Tails Rebellion in the first place, and this time the police force was also dealt with by him alone.

He was already hostile to Konoha, and destroying the Uchiha clan could effectively weaken Konoha's overall strength.

It's not surprising that such a thing could be done.

In addition, it is the man who wears a three-eyed cat-faced mask, is extremely powerful, and claims to be in the Heavenly Palace.

The origin, identity, purpose, everything is unknown.

And it is not certain that there are only these three people.

Since the founding of Konoha, there has never been an extermination of such a bad nature.

The three generations of Hokage are still in a coma, and the Minister of Darkness has also been confirmed dead.

He was only a small captain of the dark part, and he had no authority to make a choice about such a bad incident.

…… It's like he can't resist the Hokage's order to be in contact with the Mizumon-sensei's children for a long time.

"Really, what am I thinking about again?"

Kakashi shook his head, shaking the bold idea out of his mind for a moment.

In an instant, his figure disappeared in front of Naruto and Sasuke.

The ward also fell into an eerie calm for a while.

"Why aren't you leaving?"

Sasuke glanced at Naruto and said, intentionally or unintentionally, "I don't need your care. ”

Naruto, who was on the side with his arms around his chest, heard this, and a smile appeared on his face.

The man who should have gone is gone, but he can't go now.

"So, have you determined that Uchiha Itachi and the masked man are the murderers of the Uchiha clan?"

As soon as these words came out, Sasuke couldn't help but be stunned.

Or else?

Isn't that something obvious?

"It's weird, you used to be smart."

Naruto raised an eyebrow and said meaningfully, "Don't you have any doubts?" Why was the Uchiha completely slaughtered by Uchiha Itachi alone under the protection of Konoha? ”

From Kakashi's words, he already roughly understood the extermination incident.

The Uchiha, known as the No. 1 wealthy family in Konoha, has countless people who have awakened the Sharingan, and is an important piece of the puzzle for Konoha.

But such an eye-catching wealthy family was wiped out overnight?

What about the dark parts and roots of Konoha?

If you think about it on your toes, you can know that Konoha must have played an extremely important role in this extermination incident.

"Huh?"

Sasuke had regained his basic sanity by this time.

And after Naruto's little push, he frowned for a while.

Just like facing Naruto, Uchiha Itachi has always been an omnipotent presence in his heart.

But after getting along with Naruto for a long time, he gradually learned to think calmly.

Also unconsciously.

A gentle feeling gradually spread throughout Sasuke's body.

It cleared his mind and soothed the fear and confusion in his heart.

"yes."

Sasuke frowned and muttered, "If you want to eliminate the Uchiha clan in the village silently, not only must you bypass the patrols and guards in the village, but you must also eliminate everyone silently. ”

However, that night was by no means "silent".

A large number of flares were fired into the sky over Konoha and the entire sky above the Uchiha clan land.

Thinking of the anomaly that happened that night, a glint flashed in Sasuke's eyes.

"In other words, the Shadows and Roots didn't choose to support the Uchiha clan in the first place when the Uchiha clan might be invaded?"

Suddenly, Sasuke's mind was full of thoughts, and the doubts in his heart became more and more.

"Sasuke."

Naruto on the side suddenly spoke, "In your eyes, what kind of person is Uchiha Itachi?" ”

What kind of people?

When Sasuke heard this, he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces he had with that man in the past.

There is no doubt that the man is a calm, sane and at the same time very gifted guy.

Honestly, if it weren't for the events in front of you.

Sasuke couldn't imagine that the man would do such a cruel and ruthless thing as slaughtering the entire clan.

But to talk about that man's shortcomings......

A bit reticent when dealing with other people, not very good at communicating, and having a strained relationship with his clan.

Wait a minute!

Nervous, why?

"After school last night, I actually wanted to go to the Uchiha clan to find you."

Looking at the thoughtful Sasuke, Naruto reminded again, "But it seems that the dark department has long known that something will happen, and directly intervened to stop me before I left. ”

"And as far as I know, the Uchiha clan doesn't have a good reputation in the village."

The Uchiha clan has been a wealthy family in the ninja world since ancient times, and the history is even longer than that of the five great powers.

It's just that the Uchiha who is now in Konoha has only Sasuke left as a lone seedling.

I have to say, this is an amazing move.

Naruto even wondered if the Konoha higher-ups had spies sent by Mako or other organizations.

And Sasuke also thought of more in combination with the details he usually observed.

The truth about that man's slaughter of the entire clan is more than just what it seems.

"Could it be because of the compulsion of the Konoha high-level and the masked people?!"

Thinking of this, Sasuke's face couldn't help but show a touch of joy.

That's it!

Doesn't that mean that the ferret is actually ......

But just when joy and rejoicing rose in his heart.

"Sasuke, I feel like I need to be reminded."

Naruto's expression was very cold, and he said in a low tone: "There may be other hidden circumstances in the extermination incident, but what Uchiha Itachi did is by no means fake. ”

"Uchiha Itachi is the executioner who brutally slaughtered a clan, and there is no possibility of being controlled."

Looks like Sasuke seems to be a little lucky, huh?

How can this work?

And Sasuke couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

The cheeks, which had just regained a little rosiness, instantly turned extremely pale.

"Humans are extremely complex creatures, and you can't understand the mind of a madman."

Looking at Sasuke, who was pale, Naruto's eyes were deep and meaningful: "Whether or not anyone coerces him, the powerful Uchiha Itachi has no sign of resistance!" ”

"The fact that he killed his own parents and people with his own hands is in front of him!"

"There is no doubt that he is a cruel and stupid executioner!!"

As soon as these words came out, that scene couldn't help but appear in front of Sasuke's eyes again.

In the monthly reading space, a scene that repeats infinitely.

A cruel, bloody, disgusting scene!

Itachi Uchiha, that man, he killed his clan with his own hands, killed his parents with his own hands!!

Even those children, those old people, did not escape his butcher's knife!

"I see!"

Sasuke's eyes gradually changed from fear to determination: "The undead of Uchiha need redemption, they need to be redeemed with that man's pain and death!" ”

Since he is still alive, then the Uchiha clan is not destroyed!

From now on, he's not just Sasuke Uchiha!

He's still an avenger saddled with the undead of Uchiha!

At the thought of this, Sasuke's eyes turned scarlet.

The four magatama began to spin rapidly, and even faintly appeared afterimages.

Then under Naruto's playful gaze.

A wave of extremely energetic chakra burst through his body, and Sasuke suddenly felt his brain become clearer.

The next second.

The two magatama that were originally rotating gradually slowed down, and finally completely became three magatama.

"yes, that's it."

Sensing the increasingly powerful pupil power in Sasuke's eyes, Naruto smiled and said, "No matter what the truth is, it's just a few more people to take revenge on." ”

At the same time, it was getting dark.

A small freighter, which had been adrift for a day and a night, skirted the Strait of the Land of the Wind along the sea and gradually approached the port of the Land of Snow.

At the same time, the lowest compartment of the freighter.

He sat lazily on the bed, quietly looking through the information in his hand about the Snow Country.

Brush~

Suddenly, the movement of turning the page stopped, and slowly looked at the bed on the other side.

I saw a long, straight black woman lying quietly on the bed with her eyes closed.

But if you look closely, you will see that her expression is sometimes peaceful, and sometimes it becomes hideous.

It seems to be constantly switching between sweet dreams and nightmares, and the chakra and pupil power in the body are all fluctuating strangely.

"Oh? Has it already begun? ”

The numbness of the face became playful: "Do you want to indulge in false beauty, or do you want to face the cruel reality?" ”

………………

Inside a mansion in the Uchiha clan.

Izumi Uchiha sat outside the courtyard, his arms wrapped around his legs, and his temperament was quiet and elegant.

It seems to be perceiving something.

She slowly looked up at the full scarlet moon overhead.

The red moon was reflected in Izumi's dark eyes, making those eyes even more hazy and confused.

Looking at the bewitching and perfect moon, she couldn't help but sigh intoxicatedly: "The moon tonight is really beautiful." ”

It's just that how do you feel as if you've forgotten something important?

I can't remember, is it a delusion?

Just when she was distressed.

A gentle, familiar voice suddenly reached her ears from inside the room.

"Izumi, it's time to eat, I have your favorite meatballs today!"

The voice......

The hazy trance of the dark eyes gradually faded, and the eyes of the Uchiha Izumi became completely clear.

"Mom!"
