Chapter 66 Live on humbly
Space suddenly distorted, and the Kamui vortex spun wildly, completely engulfing Itachi Uchiha's body.
A hint of surprise flashed across Tobirama Senju's eyes. He was about to step forward when he found that the other party had vanished without a trace, leaving only faint ripples in the air, as if nothing had ever happened.
Kamui, the number one space-time ninjutsu in the ninja world, is among the best in escape techniques. Even someone as strong as Tobirama was helpless against it for a time.
"Second generation sir..."
The members of the secret service looked at each other, completely bewildered as to what had just happened.
Tobirama shook his head...
Itachi Uchiha likely didn't have a high chance of being infected...
The masked man probably saved him because he didn't want all the Mangekyou Sharingan to be destroyed...
The logic is very simple...
Exactly, why is the masked man's intelligence gathering speed so fast?
Is that Kakashi?
Or perhaps someone else...
Meanwhile, Obito, carrying the unconscious Itachi Uchiha, traversed space and arrived at a desolate and gloomy canyon on the remote border of the Land of Fire.
As soon as he landed, Obito's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he kicked Itachi in the chest without any mercy.
Itachi's body slammed into the rock wall behind him like a kite with a broken string, instantly kicking up a cloud of dust.
His violent coughing echoed in the darkness, accompanied by excruciating pain. Itachi slowly opened his eyes, his consciousness gradually returning.
When Itachi's gaze refocused and he saw the figure wearing a familiar mask, his expression changed drastically, and intense vigilance and anger instantly surfaced in his eyes.
"Your gaze seems to indicate you're quite displeased with me?"
Obito looked at Itachi's eyes, which were full of anger and wariness, and his voice carried a faint sarcasm and disdain.
Itachi Uchiha stared coldly at Obito: "You broke our agreement and took Sasuke away without permission."
Upon hearing Itachi's words, Obito suddenly chuckled: "Who broke the promise and betrayed us first?"
The figure moved suddenly, instantly grabbing Itachi's neck and slamming him against the rock wall. The chilling killing intent was like a blade aimed straight at Itachi's heart.
"Listen, I saved you not out of kindness, but because you still have some use to Sasuke."
"So, you'd better just live obediently and not think about making any futile resistance... I believe you also hope that your lovely little brother will be safe and sound, right?"
Upon hearing this, Itachi's angry eyes immediately turned dark and pained.
Seeing Itachi's reaction, Obito felt a sense of satisfaction and pleasure.
Last time in Amegakure, this guy teamed up with Nagato to force him to leave Akatsuki...
This debt will have to be settled sooner or later...
"You have been captured by Uchiha Gen..."
"It doesn't matter. I know he's been influencing me, but as long as he can create my ideal world, I don't care what he does..."
Obito grabbed Itachi by the neck: "You begged Konoha to take you in everywhere, and in the end you still ended up like a dead dog in my hands? Would Tobirama even take you in?"
Clenching his teeth, Itachi Uchiha spoke softly, "It's all because of you and Uchiha Gen... that the entire ninja world now believes the Sharingan is a cursed eye..."
"Hopeless..."
Spitting, Obito released his grip on Itachi's neck, watching Itachi collapse to the ground, and coldly said...
"You should know very well that you are no longer an ally of this ninja world. Whether it's Konoha or anywhere else, there is no place for you."
At this point, Obito paused, then lowered his head and sneered, "So, the only thing you can do is obediently follow the script I've prepared for you."
"When Sasuke grows up, I will personally present your Mangekyou Sharingan to your younger brother."
Itachi struggled to prop himself up, his eyes filled with complex and sorrowful emotions.
His inner struggle and pain had reached its peak, yet he was powerless to make any changes.
He silently watched Obito, his hands clenched into fists, his body still trembling.
At this moment, Obito ignored Itachi's struggles and pain, and slowly snatched a Mangekyou Sharingan that had already dimmed from Itachi's hand...
That eye originally belonged to Uchiha Shisui.
It's such a waste to leave Shizuku's kaleidoscope like this...
Obito muttered to himself, gazing at the Sharingan in his hand that had lost its power, his expression becoming meaningful.
The Sharingan had just used the forbidden Uchiha technique Izanami, and now it was completely closed and could no longer be opened.
Strangely, the withered wood release within Obito's body seemed to resonate with something, subtly stirring, as if it held a great interest in this discarded Sharingan.
Obito slowly withdrew the Shisui Sharingan from his hand, quietly sensing the unusual activity within his Dry Wood Release cells—that restless yet greedy power...
Like a hungry beast, it constantly assaulted his body, eagerly craving to devour more energy.
Suddenly, a chilling smile crept across his lips...
An idea popped into Obito's mind...
Thinking of this, he reached out and grabbed Itachi Uchiha's head tightly.
Itachi tried to struggle, but found that his body had already become like a clay sculpture, losing all ability to resist, and he was at Obito's mercy.
Countless withered and rough wooden branches, like tentacles from hell, stretched wildly from Obito's palm, mercilessly piercing Itachi's brow, and blood gushed out instantly.
The intense pain nearly drove Itachi to the brink of unconsciousness, but he didn't even have the strength to scream...
He could only watch helplessly as these withered trees cruelly tore his forehead apart, carving a bloody and terrifying gap between his skin and bones.
The Shisui Sharingan in Obito's hand, which had long lost its power, seemed to be awakened by some invisible force, slowly emitting a dim yet eerie light.
Slowly, he inserted the Sharingan into Itachi's forehead, which had been torn open by the dead wood, forcibly embedding it as if to create an artificial third eye.
The power of the Dry Wood Release erupted completely at this moment, and countless withered branches coiled around the closed Sharingan like vines, quickly merging into Itachi's body.
A terrifying and chilling cursed power spread rapidly, completely engulfing every nerve and cell of Itachi.
At that moment, Itachi's body convulsed violently, his face turning ashen white...
The third eye on its forehead began to tremble slowly, emanating a chilling aura of life, as if it had acquired its own independent consciousness.
Countless wooden spikes pierced Itachi Uchiha's brain nerves, forming a special cursed seal sealing technique...
The closed Shisui Sharingan continuously drew out Itachi's chakra, greedily and frantically converting it into its own energy.
The Sharingan, which had lost its power, gradually regained its vitality under the influence of the curse of the Dry Wood Release, and finally slowly opened its eyes, forming a brand new Sharingan with one tomoe.
The moment the third eye fully opened, a sharp and chilling whisper suddenly echoed in Itachi's mind!
The voice was like a curse from the abyss, striking straight into the depths of the soul, plunging Itachi into an extremely strange and painful trance.
Seeing this, Obito's smile grew even more sinister and crazed. He leaned close to Itachi's ear, his voice low and deadly seductive:
"Uchiha Itachi, what exactly is your wish?"
As soon as the words fell, Itachi's heart felt as if it had been pierced by countless sharp blades. The deepest pain and longing hidden in his heart were instantly ignited by these words.
"My wish...my wish..."
Itachi's consciousness was caught in a deep struggle and confusion. His lips trembled, his body convulsed violently, and the strange third eye on his forehead seemed to be dominating his consciousness.
Sasuke...
Just as he was about to say those words, a strong will stopped him from speaking...
"The indomitable will of fire, are you still resisting?"
Obito didn't seem to care much about success or failure...
Anyway...
As the cursed Sharingan's power grew stronger, the changes accelerated...
Itachi Uchiha will eventually become a puppet under the curse of the Sharingan.
The next moment, he looked down at the disheveled Itachi before him: "Uchiha Itachi, just play your role well, don't disappoint me again..."
After saying that, Obito once again used Kamui, and his figure gradually blurred and disappeared into space, leaving Itachi sitting alone among the desolate rocks.
Under the pitch-black night sky, the wind brushed against Itachi Uchiha's face.
He lowered his head dejectedly, closed his eyes, and let the sadness and helplessness completely engulf him.
He knew that he had to persevere no matter what.
Sasuke was his only concern and the only reason he insisted on living.
The third eye on his forehead was constantly tormenting his body...
But Itachi slowly stood up and walked across the wilderness...
