Chapter 557: The Complex and Contradictory Itachi

Qianyu now completely couldn't understand what Uchiha Itachi was thinking. No, perhaps Qianyu had never understood Uchiha Itachi from the beginning.

For the sake of Konoha, he could be so cruel as to massacre his own people and kill his own parents.

However, he couldn't bring himself to kill Uchiha Sasuke.

Say he loves Uchiha Sasuke, uses Tsukuyomi to show a 7-year-old child a 72-hour loop of slaughtering clan members, killing his parents, destroying Sasuke's mind, and torturing Sasuke's spirit.

To put it nicely, it is called mental torture; to put it bluntly, it is forced brainwashing to the point where the independent personality is destroyed and the mental picture collapses, and the person can only survive by relying on a glimmer of belief in revenge.

This is why Uchiha Sasuke wanted to gain power at all costs and was even willing to let him carve a seal in his brain.

Before his clan was exterminated, Uchiha Sasuke was cheerful, willful and lively.

After his clan was exterminated, Uchiha Sasuke became silent, vicious, and hateful.

Itachi Uchiha's behavior is tantamount to severely destroying Sasuke Uchiha's personality and then stimulating him to slowly reshape himself.

Thanks to Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Sasuke blocked his heart in the process of reshaping himself, and even caused mental distortion.

But it is definitely not true to say that Uchiha Itachi did not love Uchiha Sasuke.

Uchiha Itachi was ready to die at Uchiha Sasuke's hands to help Uchiha Sasuke. If he didn't love him, he would never have done this.

Qianyu looked at Uchiha Itachi and shook his head: "What a complicated and extremely selfish guy. Itachi, let me ask you a question, do you love Konoha or Sasuke? If it were the current Konoha, would you still slaughter your own people for Konoha?"

Uchiha Itachi remained silent.

The current Konoha...probably not.

Qianyu sighed, "Since you don't answer, it means you won't. Don't you know about the darkness of Konoha? You can't not know that the Uchiha clan did go too far, but the Konoha high-level officials also went too far. You chose to massacre your own people, which is equivalent to blaming all the faults on your own people.

You hope that Konoha can have peace, so you even killed your own clansmen for this, but you did not kill the guy who caused the real instability in Konoha. If it weren't for Danzo's interference, maybe Shisui could have really succeeded, but because of Danzo, Shisui lost everything, was captured by the Dazzling, and was hunted down by the Root.

I hate the Uchiha clan, but I have to ask you, is all this really the Uchiha clan's fault?

You thought you were very righteous. For the stability of Konoha, you killed your clansmen, friends, and parents. You were simply a great sage. Konoha restored peace because of you, but you left an unstable factor for Konoha, that is Sasuke.

Not everyone knows what happened that night. As the parties involved, Obito and I know about it. So it is possible that Sasuke knows the truth. If Sasuke knows the truth, will he take revenge on Konoha?

If what happened to Minato Namikaze had not happened later, and Sasuke, who knew the truth, chose to take revenge on Konoha, would you choose Sasuke or Konoha?

Because of your own subjective imagination, you turned your knife against your own people. Also because of your subjective imagination, you forced Sasuke to take such a path of revenge at all costs.

It's really too contradictory and too selfish. I really don't understand what you are thinking. You want peace but you don't seem to want peace. You want to protect Sasuke but you don't seem to protect Sasuke.

Uchiha Itachi, can you tell me? What on earth are you doing? I am really confused by you now. "

Uchiha Itachi clenched his fists and said nothing.

Because he was also a little confused at the moment.

At that stage, because he was only 4 years old, he witnessed the cruelty of the Third Ninja World War. That witness made Uchiha Itachi instinctively hate war and believe that war is hell.

So Uchiha Itachi believed that the war must be stopped no matter what the cost.

The Third Ninja World War was the reason why Uchiha Itachi hated war.

The reason why Uchiha Itachi no longer valued his own ninja clan was because of Uchiha Shisui.

Uchiha Shisui was able to show that he was not obsessed with narrow-minded tribalism, which deeply influenced Uchiha Itachi.

He hated war and was not influenced by narrow-minded tribalism. He also promised Uchiha Shisui that he would protect the village and the Uchiha name.

Therefore, when the Uchiha clan was about to launch a coup against Konoha and start a war, Uchiha Itachi chose Konoha instead of the Uchiha clan.

He protected the village, so in order to protect the Uchiha name, Uchiha Itachi handed over to Uchiha Sasuke.

Uchiha Itachi bears all the sins and is ready to let Uchiha Sasuke kill him and take all the glory.

Therefore, at this stage, Uchiha Itachi felt that he had done nothing wrong.

But at this stage, Konoha fell into a dictatorial rule after Minato Namikaze returned to power, and Uchiha Sasuke took the path of extremes.

Even if Uchiha Sasuke killed him, there would be no more glory.

What really made Uchiha Itachi feel heavy-hearted was that it might be true as Chiba said, that Uchiha Sasuke had become a twisted person because of him.

So at this stage, Uchiha Itachi began to question what he had done in the previous stage.

He wanted to protect, but it seemed like there was nothing he could protect.

Qianyu said sarcastically: "It seems that you are also questioning yourself. You don't regard your brother Sasuke as a person with a complete personality, and you don't take Sasuke's own will and ideas seriously. You are high above and manipulate Sasuke's life and destroy everything for Sasuke.

When you were in Konoha, you hoped that Sasuke would be a puppet brother who would listen to you and protect Konoha. But now, because Konoha is no longer the Konoha you wanted to protect, do you want to continue to control Sasuke's will?"

Uchiha Itachi's eyes have unconsciously opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, which shows that Uchiha Itachi is now very upset.

Uchiha Itachi let out a long breath, looked at Qianyu with sharp eyes and said: "These things have nothing to do with you, I just want to know how you can remove the seal in Sasuke's brain!"

Qianyu pointed at Uchiha Itachi's eyes and said, "Since you want to help Sasuke remove the seal on his brain so much, then give me your eyes. Your eyes only want to see what you see, and cannot see other things. They are no different from decorations, so just give them to me."

Uchiha Itachi was silent for a while and then confirmed: "As long as I give you the eyes, you will remove the seal on Sasuke's brain, right?"

"Correct."

Uchiha Itachi simply stretched out two fingers and poked towards his eyes.

"Do you think I will be grateful to you if you do this, Uchiha Itachi!"

Uchiha Itachi's hand suddenly stopped and he looked behind Chiba in disbelief.

Uchiha Sasuke walked out from behind the wall and looked at Uchiha Itachi with hatred.
