Chapter 183

......

After Obito finished telling the history of Senju and Uchiha, he also began to explain Itachi's actions to Sasuke and Kanon.

"Sixteen years ago, the Nine-Tails attacked the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan was unjustly suspected."

"Perhaps the charge of attempting treason was pinned on the Uchiha clan, and since then, the Uchiha clan has been under the thorough surveillance of the Anbu."

"Has the Uchiha clan moved its residence to the edge of the village, isolating it?"

"Their suspicion led to the growth of resentment, and suspicion gradually became real."

"The Uchiha clan began to attempt a coup in order to seize the village."

"And the upper echelons of Konoha sent a spy to the Uchiha clan, and that was your eldest brother, Uchiha Itachi,"

"Itachi's hell began from then on..."

Kane's eyes trembled, she was a little puzzled; "The Uchiha attempted a coup, and Itachi was a spy? Are you kidding me!"

"Kane, you were less than six years old at that time, and you had no idea."

"But what I said was true."

"Your father, Uchiha Fugaku, was the mastermind of the coup."

"Itachi was originally a spy planted in the Anbu by his father's order, but the fact was the opposite. Itachi leaked the Uchiha's information to the village."

"That's what's commonly known as a double agent."

"That's a heavy burden, you brothers and sisters can't imagine it."

Kane felt something was wrong, and a cramp seemed to come from her heart again. This was too strange, why, why is it like this.

Everything that happened in the past two days has dispersed her worldview and everything she cares about.

She was like an empty shell without a soul, looking at her brother Sasuke helplessly at this time.

But Sasuke was in no mood to care about his sister at this time. He was dumbfounded: "Why, why did Itachi betray Uchiha!"

The masked man nodded slightly and explained to the stunned brother and sister.

"You who have not experienced war may not understand."

"During the Third Shinobi World War."

"Itachi witnessed the death of too many people when he was four years old."

"He experienced war when he was too young, and war is hell."

"This psychological shadow made Itachi grow up to be a man who does not like fighting and loves peace."

"He became a man who puts the stability of the village as his first consideration and fights for peace."

"A ninja who is not bound by the shackles of the family and loves the village."

"The village's top leaders took advantage of him."

"The top leaders gave Itachi a top-secret mission, an eye for an eye, and Sharingan is needed to deal with Uchiha."

"Yes, that mission is..."

"The one who wiped out all the people in the Uchiha clan, including his favorite sister, that is, you, Uchiha Kanon."

Sasuke lowered his head, bit his lower lip, and looked at it with reluctance. His pupils shrank to the extreme, and he looked at Kanon with tears in his eyes. It turned out that on the night of the genocide, his sister Kanon suffered so much.

The masked man continued, "What kind of mood he was in at that time was beyond others' imagination."

"Itachi faced a terrible choice. Normally, it would be impossible to attack his compatriots and his own sister,"

"But if a powerful clan like the Uchiha caused a civil war, both Konoha Village and the Land of Fire would be shaken violently."

"Other countries will definitely take the opportunity to attack, and it may even become the fuse of the Fourth Ninja World War."

"The selfish thoughts of the Uchiha clan will implicate people who have nothing to do with the ninja world."

"Many people will die again. If you were Itachi, what would you do?"

Faced with the masked man's question, Kanon lowered her head and Sasuke gritted his teeth.

"So Itachi decided to draw the curtain on the history of Uchiha with his own hands."

"He didn't betray because he hated Uchiha, he had no choice."

"It was the result of discrimination and discord that had existed since the founding of Konoha."

"Itachi made the decision to sacrifice himself and shoulder everything alone."

"In fact, I was also waiting for the opportunity to go to war, because I had a grudge against both Senju's Konoha and Uchiha, but Itachi even discovered my spying."

"He was the only one who noticed me. Itachi contacted me and put forward two conditions to me."

Hearing this, Kanon's pupils shrank suddenly, and this time, her expression was filled with despair and pain.

Sasuke didn't understand why Kanon had such a desperate expression.

Seeing Kanon's body trembling, unable to support her body, and collapsed on the bed, the masked man nodded slightly.

"Yes, it seems that you already know one of the conditions."

"Uchiha Itachi will help me to avenge the Uchiha clan. The first condition is that he cannot attack the village."

"The second condition is that he does not want to kill himself.Your biological sister, and then ask me to kill you, Uchiha Kanon. "

As soon as these words came out, Sasuke's pupils shrank suddenly, and seeing Kanon's expression twisted by despair, Sasuke's heart was like a tsunami.

"At that time, only the Sandaime Hokage was still seeking other methods, trying to negotiate with the Uchiha and seek a way of reconciliation."

"But because of time constraints, he failed, and the contradiction between the Uchiha and Konoha was irreconcilable."

"So there was that night."

"Itachi was a mission, as a criminal who killed a clan member, he was stigmatized and became a traitor, all of this was a mission."

"Itachi successfully completed this mission, except for a small failure."

"He could entrust his sister to me to kill, but he couldn't do it to his own brother. "

When these words came out, Hanane and Sasuke were like thunderbolts from the blue sky. The two siblings looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

"He misses you the most, Sasuke, and even gave up on Hanane."

"But he can't tell you the truth."

"So he can only say that..."

Sasuke remembered the night of the genocide. Why did Uchiha Itachi cry at the last moment? If what the masked man said was true, then everything was right.

"He hopes to make you stronger by giving you the goal of revenge against him."

"Sasuke, he also hopes that you can always regard Uchiha as a noble clan in Konoha Village."

"He asked the Hokage to never let you know the truth."

"When he left the village, he had already decided to die in the duel with you."

"In order to give you new power at that time, this is the truth about Itachi. "

Sasuke's face was filled with fear and collapse, and so was Kanon, but Kanon said nothing.

"It's a lie, it's all a lie!"

"You must be lying to me!"

"Nonsense! I was nearly killed by him several times!"

As a result, the masked man slapped Sasuke back to reality from his imagination with just one sentence.

"If Itachi really wanted to take your life, you would have died long ago."

"Asshole, he even used the eye technique of the Mangekyō Sharingan to kill me!"

"What do you say?!"

Listening to Sasuke's words, the masked man just said indifferently: "Even your response was within his expectations."

"Itachi had to force you in that battle. ”

“You should have noticed the reason.”

“What about me…” Kanon, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke.

“In the duel with me, he used all his strength from the beginning…”

The masked man stood up at this moment, stroked Kanon’s cheek, and untied her.

“Because you were the one he abandoned from the beginning to the end.”

“Only by killing you as an unexpected factor, he could let Sasuke go into his plan with confidence.”

“So he wanted to kill you, wanted to kill you from the beginning to the end, even when he fought with you, he wanted to kill you.”

“Uchiha Kanon, you shouldn’t have survived, I let you survive at that time.”

“Otherwise, you would have died at that time. "

After being untied, Kanon never raised her head again. She collapsed on the bed in despair and powerlessness.

Sasuke wanted to comfort his sister and also spoke up for Kanon. Why didn't Itachi choose Kanon but himself?!

The masked man looked at Kanon's desperate expression, and the corners of his mouth in the mask slightly raised. He turned his head and looked at Sasuke.

"Itachi wanted to free you from the curse and the death of the person closest to you. That was also a battle to open your Mangekyo eyes."

"He was fighting Kanon to death the day before and almost died. He dragged his terminally ill body and strong willpower to fight you the next day."

"He played the scene of taking your eyes to the end."

Looking at Kanon lying on her back on the bed, looking at the ceiling in despair and Sasuke sitting silently, the masked man chuckled:

"It seems that you all have begun to understand."
