Chapter 128 Brothers and Sisters (2)

Stepping back on that familiar yet unfamiliar road, Sasuke's steps were heavy and slow. Every step seemed to be stepping into the abyss of memory, awakening past events that had been buried by the years.

The bright moonlight sprinkled on his face, reflecting his complex eyes. At this moment, his thoughts surged like a tide, completely submerging him in the ocean of memories.

It was on this day that everything began to change.

But this time, with the Mangekyō, he could see Itachi's actions that night more clearly.

Itachi moved like a ghost, silently moving through the shadows of every household.

His figure was swift and agile, and every move he made was accurate, leaving no trace.

However, his coldness and determination were fully exposed in the bloodstains he left when he left.

The bloodstains, like bright red threads, connected broken families and endless sorrow.

Under the sky dyed blood red by the setting sun, Itachi gradually walked to the door of his home. His footsteps seemed unusually heavy, and every step seemed to step on the scars in Sasuke's heart.

Even though he already knew what he was about to face, his heart began to beat involuntarily. But the long-suppressed emotions still surged like a tide, making him unable to control himself.

"Sasuke!"

That familiar yet distant call, crossing the shackles of time and space, once again rang clearly in his ears. This voice was the warmth he had pursued in his dreams countless times.

Those were the voices of his parents. No matter why they could recognize him now, their calls made Sasuke's eyes moist in an instant, and a gleam of tears flickered in the afterglow of the sunset.

He couldn't help but open his arms, wanting to embrace this long-lost family affection tightly.

Poof—

However, just when he was about to touch that warmth, everything became so sudden, so cruel, and so natural.

Itachi's figure flashed in his sight like a ghost, and the sharp blade was like the scythe of the god of death, ruthlessly piercing his parents' bodies from behind.

The blood was like a blooming red lotus, drawing sad and beautiful arcs in the air.

He knelt on the ground, and with trembling hands he took over his parents' lifeless bodies. Even though he knew it was an illusion, he felt an unprecedented coldness and heaviness.

It was not just the temperature of the body, but also the abyss of his soul.

The air around him seemed to freeze. Sasuke lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly. It seemed that he was still immersed in the illusion of the Mangekyo.

"My foolish brother, you also saw what happened on the night of the genocide. I was the only one who slaughtered the entire Uchiha clan. I was not ordered by anyone, and I had no helpers."

The kaleidoscope in Itachi's eyes kept spinning, and he used almost all of his pupil power. He wanted to change Sasuke's memory.

"So...why on earth did you do this?"

Sasuke's voice no longer sounded like that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child. It became hoarse like that of an elderly person who was terminally ill.

"I wish you could have eyes like mine, so I can have an eternal Mangekyo that will never go blind. I will surpass all the Uchiha and become the new pinnacle!"

Itachi's expression gradually became exaggerated, and things seemed to be really as he said.

"Sasuke! Give me your eyes! As long as I have your eyes, I can regain my sight!"

"To me, I have never been that gentle brother of yours! And you, Sasuke, are just an accessory to me!"

Itachi's aura suddenly became distorted, completely inconsistent with his originally rational and calm self.

"The Uchiha clan originally wanted to obtain the Mangekyō, so they were willing to kill their best friends. In order to obtain the eternal eye power, they were willing to turn fathers and sons against each other, and brothers and sisters killed each other."

"And they are a filthy clan that has always been proud of this power! When you are born into this clan, you cannot escape this bloody fate!"

Itachi threw down his ninja sword and walked towards Sasuke step by step. He stretched out his hand, his fingers trembling slightly. That posture undoubtedly announced the cruelty that was about to happen. He was going to deprive Sasuke of his eyes.

"Alright, come on! Brother! I'm going to kill you and free myself from the Uchiha fate!"

However, facing Itachi's madness, Uchiha Sasuke unexpectedly calmed down. He gently placed the bodies of his parents aside, and his eyes that were once full of hatred became unusually deep, as if he could see through the essence of everything in the world.

He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the kaleidoscope pattern of the six-pointed star was already shining in his eyes, which was proof of the heavy fate that Sasuke was carrying.

As Sasuke's mind moved, streams of natural energy gathered into his body like streams, interweaving with his chakra to form an unprecedented powerful force.

This power not only strengthened his body like never before, but also caused subtle fluctuations in the surrounding space. Cracks began to appear in the virtual world created by Yuedu, as if it would collapse at any time.

"Thanks, Itachi, for letting me see my parents again."

"Kaleidoscope, when did you open these eyes!"

Itachi's voice contained both incredible surprise and deep worry.

He stared at Sasuke. Those eyes that were once as clear as water were now flashing with the mysterious light unique to the Mangekyō Sharingan, as if they could see through the essence of all things in the world, yet revealed an indescribable loneliness and heaviness.

The guidance of the Tsukuyomi space completely failed. With the Mangekyō, Sasuke could not be easily controlled by Itachi using the Tsukuyomi. Even if he succeeded now, it would be ineffective after his death. So he could only use that trump card.

The newspaper did not describe in detail the fight between Ye Lan and Sasuke before leaving Konoha. It was more about Konoha's persecution of Uchiha and other incidents of framing their companions, so it was also the first time that Sasuke's Mangekyō Itachi was seen.

"Itachi, I didn't realize you had a talent for playing a clown. I'm afraid you must be quite disappointed that your clumsy performance didn't work."

The two returned to reality and confronted each other again. Sasuke was no longer a child who could be fooled by anything.

Ye Lan had already told him the secret of the Eternal Eye, and he had already obtained one, and another one was in Itachi's hands.

"You've become stronger, Sasuke. If your father were here, he would be very proud of you."

Itachi's eyesight has deteriorated a lot, and he can no longer see Sasuke's appearance.

"You have no right to mention my father!"

Sasuke's mood was like the sky covered by dark clouds, heavy and depressed. He was no longer willing to be bound by the entanglement of words, and directly used the Uchiha clan's signature fire escape.

Faced with Sasuke's sudden attack, Itachi's reaction was unusually calm.

He flashed and quickly retreated, while forming seals with his hands. A clear vapor rose from the ground and quickly condensed into a solid water wall, stretching between him and Sasuke.

Excluding the ability of the Mangekyō, Itachi's water jutsu is no worse than his fire jutsu.

However, at this critical moment, Sasuke showed extraordinary strength.

Sasuke's fire escape, after receiving the blessing of natural energy, became more and more fierce, as if it was the most primitive anger of nature, burning fiercely. The flame contained the power to destroy the world.

Although the water wall was strong, it seemed powerless in the face of this violent fire. The flames hit the water wall like a violent storm, and every collision stirred up layers of steam. The entire space seemed to be distorted by an invisible force.

The water wall was broken, and for the first time, Itachi's eyes showed solemnity. The power of this fire escape technique was already beyond that of most people.

Sasuke did not stop, huge fire dragons roared out of his mouth and pounced towards Itachi fiercely.

At that moment, the entire Uchiha ruins seemed to be engulfed by the raging flames. The ancient buildings and broken walls collapsed one after another under the ravages of the fire dragon and turned into ruins.
