Konoha's Peerless Peerless

Chapter 240 The Truth
In the middle of the night, the crowd who celebrated the night returned home to rest, and the brightly lit commercial street had returned to darkness. In the huge Muye Village, there were not many places that were still lit.

In the house of the Uchiha tribe, the cold moonlight came in through the window and shone on the tatami behind the window. Sasuke was lying on the bed, and Lan who rushed over stood not far from him.

The moonlight reflected on Sasuke's face, his eyebrows began to tremble, and as soon as they trembled, Lan, who was standing with his arms folded, opened his eyes.

"Brother... why... no... please don't do this! Don't—"

Sasuke threw off the quilt in panic and sat up, the moonlight shone on his face, looking hideous and terrifying.

"You're awake."

Lan came out from the darkness, sat next to Sasuke and handed him a cup of hot water.

Sasuke was stunned when he saw Lan, then took the hot water and thanked him: "Thank you... did you save me from him?"

"Well, how is it? Do you have any discomfort?" Lan asked concerned.

"No……"

Sasuke shook his head, just as he shook his head, a pain came from his neck, and his face became ugly.

Seeing the sudden change in Sasuke's face, Lan smiled slightly, and pressed the green palm fairy technique on the back of Sasuke's neck.

The cold chakra relieved the pain in the back of the neck a lot. Sasuke picked up the water glass and took a sip, then turned around and put the water glass aside. He lowered his head and said, "Did you come to Konoha to see me?"

Lan can say no?Of course not, his emotional intelligence is not so low, it is better to tell a white lie at this time.

"Haha, that...Of course I came to see you, but I seem to be a step late. Your brother had already left when I found you." Lan deceived.

"Is that so... That's too much trouble for you."

After Sasuke finished speaking, he fell silent. He looked out of the window, the moonlight reflected on his face, and the room returned to tranquility.

Lan was beside Sasuke, Sasuke didn't speak, and he didn't know what to say to Sasuke.

After a while like this, Sasuke stared blankly at the moonlight and said, "You know, that guy just killed his parents for the so-called power. Is power... really that important? I don't understand." , does power attract him more than his clan and family members?"

"..."

Lan is hesitating, hesitating whether to tell Sasuke about Itachi's plan, Sasuke is not his younger brother after all, if he tells him something, it will definitely make Itachi feel embarrassed.

After hesitating for a while, Lan said, "Do you think what he is after is really power?"

"If it's not power, then what else is it? That cold-blooded and ruthless guy only has power in his eyes, and nothing but power."

Sasuke turned his face to Lan and snarled.

Looking at Sasuke who looked like a little lion, Lan stood up and walked to the window. He gently opened the window, closed his eyes, and felt the night breeze.

"You are wrong about Sasuke. There are some things you don't understand. In fact... your brother has more burdens than you can imagine."

After all, Lan made a decision. He planned to tell Sasuke the whole story. As for whether this would cause trouble to Itachi, it was out of his consideration.

"You nonsense! How could that bastard be burdened! When he killed his parents, he didn't shed a single tear. What would such a guy be burdened with!"

Tears flowed from his eyes drop by drop, and Sasuke finally couldn't help crying.

"Ah~"

Lan sat next to Sasuke and wiped his eyes, looked at Sasuke's sad face and said, "Would you believe me if I said that he destroyed Uchiha to save you?"

Sasuke's pupils dilated gradually, he suddenly felt a little suffocated, a guess rose in his heart, maybe Lan was right.

"I……"

Sasuke opened his mouth. After all, he still thinks Itachi has some difficulties. Deep in his heart, he has always had a little illusion about Itachi, but the cruel reality forced him to eliminate that illusion.

Biting his lip and looking at Lan, he said expectantly: "I will believe it, please, tell me everything you know, please..."

Lan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell you slowly."

"The thing has to start from the year you were born. Back then, Obito Uchiha, who owned a kaleidoscope, controlled Nine Tails to attack Konoha, killed four generations of couples and destroyed Konoha, which made the conflict between Konoha and Uchiha put on the bright side. , Some high-level hawks believed that Uchiha should be eliminated to maintain Konoha peace, but they were forcibly suppressed by the third generation.

Although they were temporarily suppressed, they have always been hostile to Uchiha. Under their operation, the relationship between Konoha and Uchiha has become precarious. The Hawks want to completely eliminate Uchiha, and Uchiha is thinking of launching a coup to seize power.

The two are like water and fire, and a civil strife may break out at any time. For the sake of peace, Uchiha Shisui went to look for Shimura Danzo, the leader of the hawk faction, but he took one of his eyes away. Although he escaped by chance, his body was already damaged Become extremely fragile, in order to maintain the peace in his heart, he gave his eyes to your brother, Itachi became the successor of his will. "

Lan told Sasuke little by little, and Sasuke had been in a state of anger since Lan started talking, and he couldn't help but explode when he heard Itachi got Shisui's eyes.

"Why! Why did that damn Shimura Danzo do this? Why does my brother, who has inherited the will of peace, not protect Uchiha? Why on earth!"

"Anger is meaningless, Sasuke, you should understand that some things cannot be changed by your brother. Although he has a kaleidoscope, he can't change the will of Uchiha and Konoha. You Uchihas were ready for a coup at that time, in order to protect you, your brother finally decided to destroy Uchihas."

"To protect me..."

Sasuke started to tremble. He stared at Lan closely, shook his head frantically and said, "No! That's impossible! How could he be protecting me? He's clearly torturing me and hurting me! How could he be protecting me? ...I don't believe it, I don't believe it, you're lying to me, damn it, why are you lying to me—"

"what--"

Sasuke raised his head and roared, tears streaming down his face, he just wanted to cry and roar now, so that he could vent his feelings.

Looking at Sasuke who kept roaring, Lan sighed, he knew that Sasuke had already believed his words, but he couldn't accept it for a while, but also, if this kind of thing happened to him, he would be no better than Sasuke.

After crying and roaring like this for quite a while, Sasuke gradually stopped, raised his hand to wipe his face, and asked in a trembling voice: "Then...then can you tell me why he didn't tell me this? Why did he choose to hide it? I, am I always a worthless younger brother in his eyes?"

"You are too young, and some things tell you that you will not get good results. He is unwilling to say that he wants you to hate him all the time, so that he will have the motivation to become stronger. Your Uchiha's Sharingan needs strong feelings. Stimulation, so that you can become stronger, he wants to train you to be stronger than him, for him, he is enough for the person who bears hatred and pain."

"Is it enough to have him alone? What an irresponsible bastard." Tears welled up from Sasuke's eyes again, he closed his eyes to block the tears back, and said with a firm face: "But...even if this is the case, I will not forgive him either, he killed his father and mother with his own hands, for their sake, I will kill him too."

"You are wrong about Sasuke." Lan put his hand on Sasuke's shoulder, and the warm chakra drilled into Sasuke's body along his hand.

"Itachi killed some Uchiha people, but he didn't do anything to your parents. They actually committed suicide. To deceive you, Itachi did it in the illusion to make you think they were killed by him."

Lan's chakra got into Sasuke's mind, and itachi's illusion chakra left in Sasuke's body was unlocked by him. From then on, Sasuke never dreamed of the scene of the night of genocide again.

Sasuke clearly sensed that something was missing in his mind, and looked at Lan suspiciously.

"I erased the chakra that Itachi left on you, and from now on you will never dream of the night of genocide that he created. Sasuke, the world is dangerous. Itachi did this for you, although I don't think this is the most suitable, but in his eyes, this is the only one that is suitable for you."

Lan smiled, retracted his right hand and said, "But now, I think you don't need these anymore. Your strength can be gradually improved. I will help you find a way for your eyes. When the day dawns, you can go back to Luoxue with me." City, there, I will find you the most suitable master for you."

"The master who suits me best... who is he?" Sasuke asked with hatred.

"Oshemaru among Konoha Sannin, he is the most suitable master for you. I have a cooperative relationship with him. He will give me this little face. Don't worry." Lan said.

"Oshemaru." Sasuke's eyes sparkled, he looked at Konoha in the distance with hatred, and asked, "After I finish my studies, can I take revenge on Konoha?"

"That's your business. You can take revenge on whoever you want, as long as you don't seek revenge from me." Lan smiled.

Sasuke shook his head and said: "How could it be? How could I seek revenge from you? You told me so much and helped me so much. I, Sasuke Uchiha, am not an ungrateful person. When I become stronger, I will definitely repay you. your."

"Haha, repay me, well then, I'll wait for your repayment." Lan smiled.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from the window, Lan trembled, reached out to close the window, and said to Sasuke, who was extremely excited, "It's getting late, hurry up and rest."

"Yeah." Sasuke nodded excitedly, pulled up the quilt and lay down again, after lying down, he looked at Lan who was sitting on the chair and asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"No, I still have some things to deal with and you should rest." Lan said with her eyes closed.

"Then...you should go to bed early." Sasuke said, and closed his eyes.
