Chapter 169 What is the truth?

At dusk, in a corner of Konoha, within the Uchiha clan.

Sasuke has returned from school and is walking in the deserted Uchiha clan. The buildings around him have long been unkempt.

The surrounding desolate scenery has no human habitation, only houses that silently talk about everything.

Sasuke has become accustomed to this kind of scenery, and these buildings and the remaining black marks on the walls.

These things can make you remember yourself better, remember everything that happened that night, and confirm what you are living for, to avenge that man.

But now, Sasuke's eyes looked a little dull, even a little confused.

Orochimaru that night, that familiar pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, and that man's life or death, he couldn't know.

His steps were heavy, and now he had no thoughts, just as confused as a walking zombie.

Because that man is the pillar that supports him in living like this, and that heart of revenge makes him want to live no matter how hard it is, and his goal is to become stronger.

Now everything has changed...

As his pace stopped, Sasuke raised his head and looked at the man standing in his courtyard. His eyes slowly focused and turned into three magatama sharingan eyes.

His arms were slowly placed in the ninja tool bag on his waist, holding a kunai tightly, ready to launch an attack at any time.

"Who are you?"

Uchiha Sasuke shouted at the figure, as long as the opponent made any changes, he would choose to attack without hesitation.

No one from Konoha will come here, not even ninjas.

When Naoki heard Sasuke's shout, he slowly turned around, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his black pupils transformed into three Magatama Sharingan eyes, looking at Sasuke.

This made Sasuke's pupils shrink and he showed an expression of disbelief: "Are you... from Uchiha?"

Naoki shook his head slightly and walked forward slowly, but Sasuke immediately shouted: "Stop!"

As the rope tree stopped, Sasuke took a few steps back and then said: "Just keep the distance now, who are you? No one should have survived that night, and I don't know you either."

Shengshu smiled: "Not bad vigilance, but a little confused."

Naoki didn't care about Sasuke's warning and walked directly towards him.

Whoosh!

A kunai drew a line, but was gently pinched by one of the hands of the rope tree.

Sasuke let go and immediately retreated, and the moment he landed, vines rose from the ground and directly restrained him.

Sasuke lowered his head suddenly and looked at the roots of the tree on his feet. He struggled hard but could not move at all, forming a seal in his hand.

"Fire Escape, a powerful fireball technique!"

Take a deep breath, puff up your mouth, and blow out a fireball.

The scorching fire ball is as big as a person, and its power has become a bit stronger due to the awakening of the Sharingan.

"Mu Da Da!" (It's useless!)

Nousuki's palms fused instantly, like a ball of slime that directly swallowed the fireball. It also came to Sasuke and grabbed his arm.

Hiccup~

A burst of fire came out of his mouth, and Naoki's eyes slowly turned to look at Sasuke.

The next moment, the scenery in front of Sasuke was spinning, suddenly frozen in distorted colors, like broken lenses, shattering piece by piece, until he completely lost his footing and fell into the dark abyss below.

Just as he was panicking, the soles of his feet instantly fell to the ground again. With lingering fear in his heart, he bent his palms to touch the ground, but saw black flames burning all around.

This made Sasuke startled, and a familiar figure came from the distance, it was Itachi Uchiha.

The person Itachi was facing at this moment was the man he saw, and the man named Orochimaru.

The three people were wearing uniforms, but they were on opposite sides at the moment. Soon...

A battle began, and when Itachi showed his Susanoo, Sasuke showed an indescribable expression.

"Is this the truly powerful power of the Uchiha clan?" The faint voice sounded from beside Sasuke, which revealed Sasuke's inner thoughts at the moment.

Sasuke suddenly came to his senses, he was under an illusion, and that man...

"I forgot to introduce myself. I am Senju Nezuki, the one who left Konoha with your brother, Itachi Uchiha, that night."

"Similarly, your brother Uchiha Itachi was also killed by me."

Sasuke watched the battle continue. As the two giants appeared, he found himself standing in the air again.

Looking at the man next to him, the man who killed his brother, Sasuke only felt a sense of emptiness.

As the battle ended, Uchiha Itachi fell, his pair of Mangekyō Sharingan eyes were dug out, and the surrounding area fell into darkness.

"Did you kill him!?"

Sasuke confirmed again with a hoarse voice, and Naoki nodded slightly.

Sasuke was not crazy, but was extremely calm. Seeing the man's death, he was very disappointed.

That man was too weak. It was because he was too weak that he died. He could not kill him with his own hands.

"He was too weak, so he died." Sasuke muttered softly, his eyes somewhat losing focus.

The rope tree whispered like a demon again: "So what are you going to do?"

"Avenge him? Kill me, or thank me? Or live in confusion?"

Sasuke was silent, and when he lowered his head, everything around him changed again, and the blood-red moon rose high in the sky.

The silent night seemed to return to that bloody night again.

Shengshu's faint voice sounded again: "But... is everything really the same as what you know? Is what you know the truth?"

Sasuke suddenly raised his head and looked around. The strong wind blew by, as if it was going to blow everything away.

The surrounding buildings were blown up to the sky by the wind, and the ground was blown apart, and other things in the distance came with the wind.

The huge walls on both sides crashed down, and the huge steel fell. It was about to hit Sasuke, but the next moment it passed through illusory and landed at the feet of the two of them.

And a gust of wind blew by, Itachi was half-kneeling in front of the two of them, talking, and Sasuke suddenly looked behind him.

The Third Hokage, wearing Hokage costumes and a three-character bamboo hat, stood on the steel pipe.

"Itachi, thank you for your hard work..."

"This is what I should do, Third Generation-sama!"

Along with the conversation, every word fell into Sasuke's ears. At this moment, Sasuke's eyes were already filled with bloodshot eyes.

And Naoki continued: "Thank me, or do you want to kill me? Sasuke-kun!"

Sasuke was silent and said hoarsely: "Is this the truth?"

The rope tree smiled, the blood moon in the sky was covered by shadows, and darkness enveloped everything around it.

The lights on both sides of them suddenly lit up, like a long tunnel lighting up the surrounding darkness.

The claustrophobic space, the brown walls, suddenly burst out with light, and two huge shadows were reflected on the wall. Danzo stared at Itachi and spoke one sentence.

Sasuke's eyes widened, his fists were clenched, his teeth were clenched, and there was even a trace of blood.
