Chapter 73 Intelligence from both sides
After the Inuzuka mother and daughter walked away.
Fugaku also pulled a short young ANBU to Uchiha Hikari:
"Grandma, this child is the dog weasel I mentioned to you. He is also the most qualified junior in the clan. He is only 12 years old now and has already activated the three magatama and serves in the Anbu... The last time you were in the clan, It's a pity that he couldn't see you because he was on a mission."
"Um?"
Uchiha Hikari raised an eyebrow.
It could be heard that there was a little pride in Fugaku's tone.
This is also the normal psychology of a father.
Although Itachi had already developed a withdrawn and taciturn character at this time, and rarely revealed his true thoughts in front of his tribe and even his family, at least he was still able to communicate normally when getting along with Shisui, Sasuke and others. Fugaku and Mikoto probably never imagined that their eldest son would kill an entire clan two years later in another timeline.
——If you really think about it, the root of this problem is actually Fugaku himself.
Who asked him to bring four or five-year-old Itachi to the battlefield? Even an ordinary child would easily have war PTSD from witnessing those bloody scenes, not to mention the Uchiha clan whose thinking circuits are generally different from ordinary people. It would be a strange thing if Itachi's thinking was normal.
now.
Uchiha Hikari's heart moved, and a thought suddenly came to him -
"Itachi appearing here...is it a coincidence?"
In the original plot, Uchiha Itachi and Obito actually met each other a long time ago - when Itachi was 8 years old, when he went out to perform a mission in the village as a genin, he met Obito and was killed by his companion. , thus opening the Sharingan for the first time.
Two years later, these two young men also cooperated inside and outside to complete the genocide.
Now, the Uchiha light has destroyed the roots. Although Danzo is still alive, he no longer has the ability to capture Shisui's Sharingan. And if Shisui is not dead, Itachi's Kaleidoscope cannot be opened... Even if Obito is optimistic about Itachi's future, It is unlikely that he would be invited to join the Akatsuki organization at this time.
but……
"Judging from the encounter just now, Obito seems to have known for a long time that I have the 'Tsukuyomi' eye technique."
"He has been hiding in the thick fog from the beginning, observing my movements, and after detonating the two Kaguya tribesmen at the right time, he immediately closed his eyes to avoid looking at me... The main point of 'Tsukuyomi' The flaw is that it requires eye contact to activate, and it is impossible to take such targeted preventive measures without obtaining intelligence in advance.”
Thinking about it carefully, Uchiha Hikari has indeed used "Tsukuyomi" several times during this period, targeting Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and people in the root...
On the day when the roots were destroyed, Itachi and Shisui were both present and witnessed the entire process of Danzo being sent away.
certainly……
This cannot be used as evidence that Itachi is colluding with foreign enemies.
Because there were about a dozen ANBU ninjas present that day, plus Sarutobi Hiruzen himself, two consultants, and doctors from Konoha Hospital... all of them might have leaked this information.
There is another person——
Black Zetsu!
This great filial son in the ninja world is an old Yinbi who has lived for more than a thousand years, and pays special attention to the Uchiha clan. It is unlikely that he knows nothing about her "humanoid weapon". Hei Jue may even know that she has "Amaterasu", but he just doesn't know the principle of "Eight Thousand Spears".
(To be on the safe side, let’s try checking Itachi’s memory once the Eight Thousand Spears’ abilities become more proficient…)
(It’s best if you haven’t had any contact with Obito, otherwise...I’m afraid I have to do something with him.)
the other side.
Uchiha Fugaku was still tentatively speaking: "Grandma, if you have time in the future, can you... give some guidance on Inuko's practice? With Inuko's qualifications, maybe he can open the kaleidoscope like Shisui in the future and become an Uchiha clan member. The mainstay.”
"……Can."
Uchiha Hikaru glanced at Itachi, then at Fugaku, and nodded subtly: "In a few days, call the brat named Shisui. I will personally check their level."
"good."
After saying a few words, Uchiha Hikaru said hello to Fugaku and left Nanga River alone.
…
at the same time.
In a forest outside Konoha Village.
A whirlpool suddenly appeared.
Obito, wearing an orange mask, fell out of the air and staggered to the ground. His upper body was almost completely naked, and his black red cloud robe was burned to pieces, revealing half normal and half white skin.
Gudu Gudu——
The soil not far away separated silently to both sides.
A strange creature that looked like a pitcher plant stuck its head out.
"How about it?"
"……monster."
Obito's dry voice came from behind the mask: "Those jounins from Kirigakure Village were just objects of fun in front of her. It wasn't until she saw me that she showed some real skills... In an instant, Susanoo is activated to that extent and can release such a powerful Amaterasu. If I delay for a few seconds, I may not be able to come back."
As he spoke, Obito took off his mask, revealing a vicissitudes of face that did not match his age.
At this moment, the left eye on that face had lost its luster.
——Izanagi.
Because the black flames that were drawn into the Kamui Space with him at the last moment were too large, in order to ensure that his left eye was not damaged, Obito had to use Izanagi once to save all damage.
Although he still had some spare Sharingan inherited from Madara, it still hurt to lose one so easily.
"But it's okay."
"Using such a powerful 'Amaterasu' should have put a lot of pressure on her body, and perhaps even her eyesight has declined... It would be best if she could go blind."
"..."
Jue was silent.
He also learned about the existence of Uchiha Hikari not long ago, and linked her to a member of the Uchiha clan who he thought was dead in the early Warring States period. If it was that person... things might become a little tricky.
"It seems that the action plan to destroy the Uchiha clan may have to be slightly changed. Before getting rid of the two threats of her and Uchiha Shisui, we can't act rashly."
For a long while.
Obito slowly stood up and said, "Let's go."
"The Kirigakure ninjas we brought this time have been completely wiped out. I don't know how much information Konoha can get from them. We need to go back as soon as possible to make the next deployment... I originally wanted to kill all those bloodline families, but now it seems that there is a more suitable way for them to die."
As he spoke, Obito's figure turned into a whirlpool and disappeared.
Zetsu also sank into the mud and quickly followed.
A breeze blew by, and everything returned to silence.
