Naruto: If I ask you to practice gentle fist, will you drive a Gundam?

"what happened?!"

Asuma and Hong blurted out the words almost at the same time.

During this time, the two of them had been listening to sounds and determining their location. They could only judge everything that was happening around them by their ears. Although they were very anxious, they did not dare to open their eyes rashly.

"One vs. Seven-San, what's wrong with you? Did you really overuse that move?"

Kisame raised his sword to block Itachi and asked with concern.

"What!?"

Kakashi, who was kneeling on the ground, was observing the situation with his last breath because he was worried. At this time, he was half asleep and half awake, but he suddenly became alert after hearing about what happened to Itachi.

Seeing Itachi kneeling on the ground and suddenly falling into such a state of extreme exhaustion, Kakashi knew that this was not a sign of overuse of the Sharingan, but that he had encountered the same technique as him!

"Is there anyone else..."

Kakashi looked around vigilantly, wanting to see who was helping him.

But in fact, before he turned his head to observe, he already had the answer in his mind.

Sasuke is the only one in Konoha Village who can use the Sharingan at this time. It is ridiculous to expect the current Sasuke to defeat Itachi in illusion.

Then it would be even more impossible if Itachi was not defeated by the Sharingan but by other illusion ninjas.

Jiraiya, who had been watching from a distance, was also confused. He thought he would see Neci take action, but he didn't expect Itachi to fall down by himself before Neci could make a move. Isn't he too weak? His chakra ran out so quickly? Jiraiya thought.

"You lecherous sage! Can we go support Kakashi-sensei now?!"

Naruto asked with great concern.

During this period of time, in order to prevent the enemy from discovering Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Jiraiya kept holding him by his side and preventing him from moving.

Although only two members of Akatsuki have appeared so far, there may be others lying in ambush nearby.

Exposing yourself rashly without knowing the enemy's number and strength will only cause unnecessary trouble.

It was also thanks to Jiraiya who was always there to hold Naruto, otherwise he would have rushed out long ago.

"No hurry, Kakashi is out of danger now..."

Looking at Itachi who was kneeling on one knee, Jiraiya whispered.

"but!.."

Naruto was about to say something, but was immediately stopped by Jiraiya's serious look.

Although this lustful immortal is usually not serious, he can immediately switch to the identity of a strict teacher in critical situations.

"That road... these people are targeting you!"

Jiraiya had a serious expression on his face as he spoke to Naruto word by word.

"What?!..."

When Naruto heard this, his expression froze instantly.

Such a powerful enemy is actually looking for me? You know, that person can even knock down Kakashi!

Feeling a strong sense of crisis, Naruto also realized the seriousness of the situation. He swallowed his saliva and stayed where he was silently.

Seeing this, Jiraiya nodded, looking at the people confronting each other while also being alert to potential enemies around them.

As for Itachi, the look in his eyes when he looked at Neji was still full of shock and confusion.

He doesn't understand,

He didn't understand how a young man from the Hyuga clan could use the Sharingan. He didn't understand how an outsider could use the Sharingan to suppress a genius from the Uchiha clan like him.

And if I remember correctly, he had the Byakugan in the previous moment and the next moment it turned into the Sharingan!

How on earth is this done?!

Time goes back a few seconds.

At that moment, just when Might Guy kicked towards Kisame, diverting everyone's attention.

Neji seized the opportunity, switched to the Mangekyō Sharingan before Itachi's gaze left his eyes, and used Itachi's signature skill - Tsukuyomi - on the opponent.

A moment later, in Itachi's vision, all the scenes around him changed color, as if the film was overexposed.

"Illusion? When?"

Itachi immediately became alert and began to think.

But instead of thinking about when he fell into the other party's illusion, he would rather think about who has the ability to make him fall into the illusion?

With his current abilities, in the entire ninja world, if Itachi says he is second, then no one dares to say he is first...

Moreover, in the current Konoha Village, there are only a few people present who have some ability in using illusion techniques.

One is Kakashi with the Sharingan, and the other is Kurenai Yuhi.

But obviously, the one who was knocked down by him and the other who closed his eyes in fear were not these two people who cast the illusion on him.

At this moment, a soft and familiar boy's voice came from behind Itachi, attracting his attention immediately.

"Nissan... woooooooooooo"

Hearing this voice, Itachi's detection radar responded immediately. This was exactly the voice he had been thinking about day and night.

"Sask!"

Itachi said eagerly as he turned to look.

Not far behind him, he saw Sasuke crying with his face covered with his hands. He looked exactly like the young Sasuke on the night of the genocide.

Next to Sasuke were the bodies of their parents, Fugaku and Mikoto.

"Nissan... why... I'm so scared..."

Sasuke cried and complained, his voice trembling, and he looked very desperate and helpless.

Seeing this scene, Itachi felt as if his heart was stabbed by a knife. Although he knew that this was an illusion and that he was trapped in the enemy's illusion, years of longing and guilt still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Sasuke..."

Itachi just called out Sasuke's name but didn't take a step forward.

Because of his strong rationality, Itachi did not act on his emotions in the heat of the moment.

Just when he thought he had overcome the illusion created by his enemy, Sasuke took his hands away while crying and raised his head.

"elder brother..."

This raising of his head frightened Itachi greatly.

Sasuke took his hands away, and the skin on his cheeks was mostly ulcerated, but under that young face there was another face:

It was a pale face with long purple eye shadow on both sides of the nose and a long tongue sticking out from the thin lips.

This face was very familiar to Itachi, it was none other than Orochimaru who had been coveting the body of his Uchiha clan for a long time!

"Haha! One against seven, and your brother's body will belong to me!"

Orochimaru, who had taken over Sasuke's body, spoke as he slowly tore off Sasuke's face. Such a slow movement made people feel extremely cruel and bloody.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Itachi's tense nerves were suddenly violently touched, and he let out a terrified cry:

"No! Sasuke!"

This scene was exactly what he was most worried about.

But the next second, the surrounding scene changed again, and Itachi came to another place.

But this time, the person standing in front of him was not the young Sasuke, but another familiar figure.

The figure stood in front of a cliff, with his back to Itachi, and said quietly:

"Itachi, I failed to stop Danzo, and he took away one of my eyes. I am powerless to change what is about to happen. I can only place my hope in you..."

The figure turned around as he spoke, and in the pale moonlight, Itachi saw the man's face clearly. It was the young Shisui.

But at this time, Shisui's eyes were sunken, leaving two scarlet blood marks, but there was still a smile on his face.

He had something tightly clenched in one hand and turned to face Itachi.

"Shisui..."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Itachi's painful memories were awakened again. He reached out his hand to touch it, but Shisui suddenly stopped smiling.

Shisui suddenly opened his eyes, revealing two empty black blood holes, and growled at Itachi in a sad tone:

"I clearly asked you to protect the Uchiha clan, how did you do it!!!"

After Shisui finished speaking, he opened his mouth and let out a sharp howl. This terrifying and creepy sound once again pushed Itachi's emotions to the brink of collapse.

"Do not!!!"

Itachi was trapped in an endless cycle of nightmares, with no way to escape. He could only be forced to watch the things he least wanted to see over and over again. . .
