Chapter 34 Preface Mission 2: Prepare to Get Your Eyes Back
Itachi eventually left the village.
The Uchiha rebellion was buried before it even began, and the Uchiha members who were originally preparing to launch a rebellion became innocent villagers who were "annihilated", and all the faults and guilt were taken away by Itachi alone.
The Uchiha clan was wiped out overnight. Such a horrific tragedy spread throughout the village almost instantly. Even Minato Namikaze and Kushina, who were investigating alien ruins, hurried back.
Minato Namikaze and Kushina do not know the truth about the extinction of the clan. In order to protect the only two survivors, Manabu and Sasuke, Minato Namikaze decides to move the two to next door to his house, and they are protected by the Anbu who is secretly responsible for protecting Naruto.
The original Uchiha clan territory was sealed off in the name of investigation.
From the time the incident happened to the time he moved into his new home, Sasuke had been in a state of detachment. His brain automatically activated a protection mechanism, excluding all those overly absurd realities.
Shingon stayed with Sasuke the whole time, and the two of them stayed quietly in their new home until the ninja from the Anbu came to the door and the silence inside the room was broken.
Facing the investigation of the Anbu ninja, Zhenyan only said three words: "I don't know."
The Anbu ninja wanted to ask something else, but when he met Shingo's dark eyes, the words he was about to say were inexplicably stuck in his throat.
The Anbu ninja left, and Sasuke gradually came back to his senses from his detached state and began to connect with reality. He turned to the truth and spoke the first sentence, but it was a little incoherent: "Why is Itachi... those people outside..."
Sasuke felt like he was about to be torn in two, and the one tearing him apart was Itachi, the legendary clan-destroying killer, and the other half was Itachi, the gentle brother in his memory. Pulled between the two sides, he was completely lost...
Sasuke's eyes were empty, his lips were pale, and his whole body was shaking. He looked like he was going to fall down at any second.
Shingon put his hand on Sasuke's shoulder to steady him. He said, "Sasuke, do you remember what I said to you?"
Sasuke looked at Shingon in confusion, not knowing whether he had forgotten or had not heard clearly what Shingon said.
Shingo looked at Sasuke, and he exerted a little force on his hands, as if he wanted to convey his message: "If you want to know whether the rumors are true or not, and want to know what Itachi is thinking, then work hard to become as strong as Itachi, stand at the same position as Itachi, and see the scenery that Itachi has seen. Then, the answers to all your questions will appear before your eyes."
Sasuke needs a target now. It was Itachi before, so let him target Itachi now.
Perhaps it was because he felt the power transmitted by Zhenyan, or because he heard what Zhenyan said, but Sasuke's trembling gradually stopped, and his vision focused, and his eyes fell on Zhenyan, who was supporting him like a lighthouse in front of him.
Sasuke's fists tightened little by little, he took two deep breaths, and the color on his face began to return: "Brother Zhenyan, I want to practice, I will become stronger!"
At this moment, Sasuke made up his mind that he must become stronger, stronger than Itachi. He wanted to find Itachi and ask him in person.
...
On the other hand, unlike the two Uchiha survivors who have calmed down, Konoha is still in a state of chaos. The villagers who don't know the truth are bound to panic, and the senior officials who know the truth have to pretend not to know and investigate the matter.
The result of the investigation could only point to Uchiha Itachi who defected from the village.
Minato Namikaze had many doubts about the Uchiha clan extermination incident. First, he felt that the investigation process was too brief, and second, he felt that the results of the investigation were too hasty. So he found the Third Hokage and wanted to ask why such a big case was closed so easily?
Among Konoha's top leaders, only the Third Hokage, Danzo Shimura, Koharu Utane and En Mitokado know the truth about the extinction of the clan.
Whether it was to calm people's hearts or to hide the fact of Uchiha's rebellion, the four of them unanimously decided to keep the matter secret and never mention it again.
So in response to Namikaze Minato's question, the Third Hokage just sighed and said, "The Anbu has searched the Uchiha clan territory three times and found no clues. The Uchiha clan didn't even leave any bodies behind, and there were no signs of fighting at the scene. The only one who could do this is probably Uchiha Itachi, who is also an Uchiha."
This explanation could not completely convince Minato Namikaze, but Minato Namikaze noticed the attitude of the Third Hokage, so he did not continue to ask, but went to the Uchiha clan to investigate in person.
Shingon's teleportation was indeed done very cleanly, but it did not mean that there were no clues at all. The teleportation array he drew actually left some traces, but those traces were very inconspicuous and in the corners, so they were ignored by the Anbu ninja.
In the process of investigating alien ruins, Minato Namikaze came into contact with many runes, so when he saw the traces left by the teleportation array, he immediately paid attention to it, because the runes of the teleportation array were similar to the runes he found in the alien ruins, and both used very ancient carving methods.
Namikaze Minato wrote down the remaining runes in the Uchiha clan's land and asked Kushina to help decipher them. However, Kushina just shook her head after reading them, because there were too few remaining runes and they could not be deciphered at all.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence." Kushina said, "After all, the Uchiha is a big family. The family may have collected some ancient books, so those rune traces were left behind."
In short, this genocide incident is full of doubts. Perhaps only by finding Uchiha Itachi who defected from the village can the truth be revealed. For this reason, the Fourth Generation couple decided to leave the village again to investigate. This time, in addition to investigating the alien ruins and the masked man related to the Nine-Tails incident, they also have to track down Uchiha Itachi's whereabouts.
Before leaving, Minato Namikaze came to see Shingon and Sasuke. This happened while he was away from the village, and he felt very guilty in his heart, so he wanted to take care of the two children as much as possible and wanted to ask them if they needed anything.
"Uncle Minato." Shingon did need Minato Namikaze's help with something. During this time, he stayed at home with Sasuke and studied the Tailed Beast Ball of the Ten-Tails. Now he can compress the chakra pearl he wants, but there is still a problem, which is that he can't maintain it.
After the Tailed Beasts condense the Tailed Beast Ball, they will push it out as quickly as possible, otherwise it will explode in their own mouths. The same is true for the super mini version of the Tailed Beast Ball compressed by Mantra, but it does not have the explosive power of the Tailed Beast Ball.
Shingon placed a small black chakra pearl on his fingertips and asked Minato Namikaze: "Uncle Minato, do you know how to maintain this chakra pearl?"
Seeing what was in Shingon's hand, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Is this chakra compression?"
Shingen nodded. He was studying the Tailed Beast Ball under the guidance of Minato Namikaze.
The color and compression molding method of the Tailed Beast Ball met his requirements very well. It just had one imperfection: the duration of its maintenance was too short.
Chakra is a power extracted from the human body, so it naturally needs to be controlled by humans. Once it is out of control, it will be difficult to maintain. This is determined by the form of chakra's existence.
However, there are ways to maintain the chakra, such as sealing technique, which is a type of ninjutsu that can seal the chakra.
The sealing technique is what the Uzumaki clan is good at. Although Namikaze Minato has learned some from Uzumaki Kushina, he is not as proficient as Kushina. So he went back to ask Kushina for advice. When Kushina heard that it was Managa's need, she quickly gave a solution, which was to engrave the sealing technique on the cup of drink.
Not only did Kushina provide a solution, she also told Managa which specific sealing technique to use.
Shingon was very grateful for Kushina's help and wanted to invest Kushina's technology, but Kushina not only refused, but also thanked him instead.
Shingo was a little confused and a little guilty, because Naruto listened to him and actually developed a facial seduction technique, so he felt unworthy of Kushina's thanks...
Kushina was grateful to Shingon because this time when she came back, she learned about the rumor that a demon fox appeared in the village.
Although the Third Hokage quickly dealt with the rumors, the words that had been spread could not be taken back, and Naruto's identity as a Jinchūriki was still exposed.
Kushina is also a Jinchūriki, and she knows very well the prejudice against Jinchūriki. That's why she and Minato chose to hide Naruto's identity. In addition to protecting Naruto from being targeted by his enemies, they also wanted to give Naruto a healthy environment for growth.
Now that the secret has been revealed, Naruto has not suffered much negative impact, all thanks to the truth.
Kushina was very glad that she had made the decision at the time. It was indeed a wise decision to let Naruto and Shingon learn more.
Minato Namikaze has always been grateful to Shingon, because without Shingon, their family might not be able to reunite here. In addition, he is also grateful for the positive influence of Shingon on Naruto. This time when he came back, he communicated with Naruto and found that Naruto was not opposed to the existence of the Nine-Tails, and this is exactly what he wanted to see.
In the previous Ninja Village War, Minato Namikaze had fought against the Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village. The Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village, Killer Bee, could completely transform into a tailed beast and fully exert the power of the tailed beast.
It was because of seeing this form of cooperation between humans and the tailed beasts that when Minato Namikaze was re-sealing the Nine-Tails, he thought of splitting the Nine-Tails into two and sealing half of it for Naruto. In other words, he was saving a cheat for his son in advance.
Namikaze Minato hopes that one day in the future, Naruto will be able to unleash the power of the Nine-Tails like the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
During this time, Minato Namikaze has been investigating matters related to alien ruins. He is becoming more and more certain that there are unknown enemies coveting the ninja world. He doesn't know when the enemy will arrive, so he can only prepare as much as possible before that.
Namikaze Minato and Kushina left the village again, and the Uchiha clan extermination incident caused a sensation for a while, but gradually subsided. Sasuke returned to the ninja school, and Shingon went to Zabuza because Shisui woke up.
Ever since being rescued by Bai, Shisui has been recuperating in a wooden house outside the village, and now he has finally woken up.
Shingon wanted to help Shisui get his eyes back, but Shisui refused to reveal who took his eyes away.
Shisui was reluctant to say, but Shingen guessed something from Shisui's attitude. The person who took away Shisui's eyes was most likely an acquaintance in Konoha Village, as Shisui was so secretive.
Shingon remembered that before the accident, Shisui was often with Itachi. He guessed that Itachi might know something, so he contacted Itachi using the communication crow left by Itachi.
Itachi went to the Akatsuki organization through the introduction of Shingon, and he found out that everyone in the Akatsuki organization was an S-rank traitor...
After discovering this fact, Itachi also wanted to talk to Shingon, so he found an opportunity to return to Konoha, and the two met at the Valley of the End.
"Itachi, do you know who took Shisui's eyes?" Shingon asked first.
Itachi was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's here with me."
True words: “???”
Shinyan looked at Itachi in disbelief: "What did you just say?"
Itachi summoned a crow on the spot and showed Shisui's eyes to Shinon.
Before, Shisui entrusted his left eye to him, so for safety reasons, he put Shisui's eye on the summoning beast.
Shingon looked at Itachi, then looked at the Sharingan in the crow's eye sockets. He didn't know what to ask for a moment...
Why did Itachi take away Shisui's eyes? Why did he give them to Crow after taking them away?
Is Uchiha's Sharingan a universal plug-in? The kind that can be matched with an eye socket? !
