Chapter 5 Damn it, something's really going to come crashing down.
A chill was in the wind outside the leaf-covered area.
Obito Uchiha stood atop a high hill, looking down at the village that was gradually falling into silence below, his emotions agitated and complex.
He could not shake off a lingering unease, always feeling that taking away Uchiha Awakening's ominous Mangekyou Sharingan was an extremely serious mistake.
Just then, a slender and calm figure slowly emerged from the shadows; it was Itachi Uchiha.
His steps were heavy, and he exuded obvious fatigue and heaviness. His expression was low and gloomy.
Obito glanced at him coldly, a hint of mockery in his voice, and said, "Why did you take so long?"
Itachi lowered his eyes, his expression unchanged, and replied calmly, "I'm sorry, things have become more complicated than I expected."
Obito frowned slightly and continued to press, "Has everything been settled regarding the clan matters?"
Itachi nodded coldly and said in a low voice, "It's over."
A brief and awkward silence filled the air.
Obito narrowed his eyes, staring at Itachi's cold expression, and the pale and eerie face of Uchiha Gen couldn't help but reappear in his mind.
He paused, then casually asked, "Do you know someone named Uchiha Gen?"
Itachi seemed somewhat surprised by the question. He pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said calmly.
"All I know is that there is such a person in the clan. He was assigned to the security department to do clerical work, and it is said that he has not even awakened the Sharingan."
"Haven't you opened your eyes yet?"
Obito seemed to have heard some absurd joke, and a hint of contempt rose in his eyes.
He reached into his robes and pulled out a transparent bottle containing Yuan's eerie Mangekyou Sharingan, which appeared incredibly sinister and ominous in the moonlight...
"You're telling me now that he hasn't opened his eyes?"
A flicker of undisguised surprise crossed Itachi's eyes as he fixed his gaze on those enigmatic eyes, a rare hint of unease appearing in his voice: "This is... his Mangekyou Sharingan?"
"Yes,"
Obito's tone revealed obvious disgust and displeasure, as if he were criticizing Itachi for his serious lack of information.
"Who would have thought that a civilian employee hiding in the security department would have already awakened such a bizarre kaleidoscope?"
Itachi remained silent for a moment, his eyes deep and unfathomable. He recalled his father's strange appearance before his death, as if he were pondering something, but he did not ask any further questions.
Obito did not continue to explain the details.
At this moment, he deliberately maintained the mysterious and unpredictable image of Uchiha Madara, and naturally did not want to tell Itachi that he had almost luckily taken Yuan's eyes.
Even now, the terrifying power his opponent unleashed at the moment of his death still haunts him.
At this moment, he continued to fidget with the bottle in his hand with an air of disdain, speaking casually...
"Although he opened his eyes, he was nothing special, and I easily dealt with him."
Itachi stood in the shadows, silently observing the actions of this man who called himself Uchiha Madara. He knew very well that there was too much embellishment in his words.
But he didn't expose it; he just stood quietly in place, silently cooperating with Obito's self-deception.
After a long silence, Itachi finally spoke, asking the question that truly concerned him: "What exactly is his Mangekyou Sharingan ability?"
Upon hearing this, Obito paused for a moment, then gave a strange smile, as if he had thought of something extremely interesting.
He fiddled with the bottle, slowly turned his head, and fixed his gaze on Itachi's indifferent and calm face. Suddenly, he asked in a meaningful tone.
"Itachi, what is your wish? Is it to make Sasuke an excellent Konoha ninja?"
Uchiha Itachi fell silent upon hearing this.
cut...
Why didn't he get infected?
Why was I inexplicably cursed by him?
Seeing Itachi fall silent, Obito's smile beneath the mask gradually faded.
He tucked the bottle back into his arms with a self-deprecating tone, his voice turning cold and somber once more.
"Fine, it doesn't matter if you don't want to answer. Your wishes mean nothing to me."
Itachi remained silent, his expression as unchanging as a statue.
The moment Obito asked that question, an indescribable sense of vigilance and oppression welled up in his heart.
It was as if the eyes of a kaleidoscope inside the bottle were staring intently at him, trying to drag him into some strange and unknowable vortex.
That Sharingan of Abyss had a hint of evil about it.
A sudden chill ran through Itachi's heart, and he instinctively looked up at the sky.
The night remained deep and cold, with the scarlet moon casting an eerie red glow.
Seeing that Itachi remained silent, Obito simply snorted coldly, turned around, and ignored him.
The night wind blew across the land. Itachi Uchiha and Obito Uchiha stood in the dark wilderness, each lost in their own thoughts.
After tonight, the Uchiha clan will be wiped out...
Not long after, Obito took Itachi Uchiha back to the Akatsuki's secret headquarters.
Throughout the journey, Obito was restless, with suggestive words constantly echoing in his mind, making it impossible for him to shake off his lingering unease.
"Itachi, this is Akatsuki's base."
Upon arriving in the Land of Rain, Obito gave a brief instruction, hastily dismissed Itachi, and then quickly strode through the dark passage to find Black Zetsu.
"Obito, what's wrong?"
"There's something that's causing you a lot of trouble."
Black Zetsu emerged from the shadows of the ground and looked at Obito.
"What's wrong? Weren't you supposed to be carrying out the Uchiha clan massacre plan with Itachi tonight?"
Black Zetsu immediately and keenly noticed the abnormality in Obito's tone and expression.
"Tonight at the Uchiha Police Department, I encountered a man named Uchiha Gen. Before he died, he unleashed a technique that could destroy the entire ninja world!"
A technique to destroy the ninja world?
Black Zetsu initially thought Obito was talking nonsense.
But as he took out the Sharingan from the bottle, along with Obito's description of the ninja world's apocalypse and the scene of planets crashing down, he revealed the Sharingan.
Black Zetsu finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
He quickly decided that he had to personally verify the truth of what Yuan had said.
As the third son of Kaguya Otsutsuki, Black Zetsu possesses many secrets of the ninja world, including those of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon.
He easily located the passage and infiltrated the distant and mysterious moon.
Upon arriving on the lunar surface, Black Zetsu quickly went to a special observation point.
As he looked up into the depths of the universe, a sudden shock struck him. At the edge of his vision, a colossal planet appeared, carrying an unparalleled aura of destruction, hurtling toward the planet where the ninja world was located at an alarming speed.
"Damn, there really are planets!"
Black Zetsu stared in horror at the deadly planet, his pupils instantly contracting...
The surface of that planet was burning with strange and peculiar flames, as if symbolizing the end of the world, and it kept heading towards the Ninja World planet.
According to estimates, it will collide with the entire ninja world within a month.
