Lord God Investigator

In the ninja world, just like Japan in the real world, there is also a method of committing suicide called seppuku.

During the mission in the Kingdom of Birds, counselor Komei was sentenced to commit seppuku. When Sunagakure Village hosted the Chunin Examination, Gaara's Kazekage assisted in the rebellion. After being exposed by Gaara, he also ended his life by committing seppuku.

The method of seppuku in the ninja world is exactly the same as Japan's seppuku in the real world. The person who commits seppuku will wear a white dress, spread a white cloth, kneel on the ground, expose his abdomen, and use a short sword or a long sword. Cut open the abdomen sharply.

The person who performs a laparotomy first cuts from left to right, and then makes a second cut slightly upward to allow the intestines to spill out.

When the second cut was made, the wrong person was holding the head, that is, swinging the knife to cut off the neck of the person who had the disembowelment, but not completely, leaving the head and neck still slightly involved.

Since the sword must be very precise, the person who performs the act of insemination is usually a master of swordsmanship. Generally speaking, the person who does the insemination is a relative, friend or the most trusted subordinate of the person who commits seppuku.

It is possible to commit seppuku without interfering with the wrong person, but the person who commits seppuku will suffer tremendous pain, the death process will be very long, and the death will be ugly.

It can be said that Jie Cuo is the executioner of those who commit seppuku. The person who commits seppuku does not die from seppuku, but from Jie Cuo's head-first stabbing.

Of course Sasuke knew what Itachi said about seppuku and wrong people. He was surprised: "Why do you want to commit seppuku? Didn't Naruto say that you will not be held legally responsible?"

Itachi raised his eyes and looked at the rankings enshrined on the shrine, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "What can judge a person is not only the law, but also his own heart... Right and wrong are meaningless to me. It’s time to give yourself a break.”

"It shouldn't be like this!"

Sasuke shook his head and said: "You were forced by Danzo, Sarutobi and Obito... no, not just them, but also the cannibalistic system of the old ninja world. Why should you bear responsibilities alone that you should not bear? You don’t need to commit seppuku!”

Itachi approached Sasuke, stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, saying: "Stupid brother, I am not punishing myself, I just... want to be free... Can you understand a person who cannot face his past and loses his future? How painful is the target person? Please help me leave this world."

"I...I can't..."

Sasuke never expected that the man he once wanted to kill in his dreams would actually beg him to kill him, but he refused.

"Brother, I won't force you anymore... You can already make the right decision on your own without anyone pushing you from behind."

Not only was Itachi not disappointed at Sasuke's rejection, but he showed an extremely gentle smile.

"You can commit seppuku without interfering with the wrong person. No matter what, I will end my life today, right where I killed my parents. I will use seppuku to feel how they felt when I killed them. The more painful it is." , I can probably understand their pain of being killed by their own sons."

After saying that, Itachi went on his own to prepare for seppuku, put on a white dress that had been prepared long ago, spread a white cloth in front of the shrine, and arranged the wooden box containing the head.

He had even prepared a suicide note and put the folded suicide note aside.

Straightening his waist, he knelt down in front of the shrine. Itachi opened his clothes, exposed his abdomen, took out a dagger, wrapped the blade with a white handkerchief, held the blade and pointed the tip towards his lower abdomen.

Sasuke stared at this scene blankly, not knowing what he should do.

Stop Itachi?

For a person who wants to die, even if he is stopped this time, what about next time?

Watching him die in pain?

Maybe before he knew the truth, Sasuke could happily watch with a cold eye. The more miserable Itachi died, the happier he was, but now, a bit of unbearability arose in his heart.

Simply help him make mistakes, cut off his head with a knife, and alleviate his pain before death?

But isn't this another tragedy of the Uchiha clan's brothers fighting each other? Could it be that the Uchiha clan can never escape the reincarnation of fate?

"Brother!" Sasuke blurted out: "Don't be like this... There are other options... Death is not necessarily relief!"

Itachi turned his head, looked at Sasuke with a smile, and said calmly: "Brother, this is my choice, please respect my choice, please don't resent anyone, let alone the world, because of my 'unwillingness'. I believe that you and your friends have found the right way to change the world, and the future will be wonderful..."

As he spoke, the tip of the knife pierced his lower abdomen. Itachi didn't even grunt, but forcefully cut the abdomen from left to right, blood and intestines gushed out, and fell onto the white cloth, on top of it. A large area of ​​bright red was smudged.

Itachi was already very weak, and the pain from this cut made his body tremble slightly, and the hand holding the knife was unsteady.

Sasuke felt his hands and feet were cold and his eyes widened. The Mangekyo Sharingan emerged and kept spinning.

The Uchiha clan suffers huge mental shock, often producing special Yin-type chakra, and even opening their eyes under strong stimulation.

Sasuke had already activated the Mangekyou Sharingan, but under the stimulation of this extremely terrifying and helpless scene, his power exploded.

Sweat covered Itachi's cheeks, and there was no trace of pain on his face. He pressed his knees tightly together, trying hard to control the hands holding the knife to avoid making deviations in the marks of seppuku.

After this cut, the intestines had flowed out, but the person would not die soon. Itachi started the second cut, first pulling out the blade, then pointing the blade upward, and stabbed it into the lower abdomen again, gritting his teeth and moving upwards.

This is the most painful method of seppuku, which involves forming a cross incision with the transverse knife from bottom to top, all the way to the heart.

When making the first cut, Itachi's movements were relatively clean and neat, but the second cut was a little weak. Even though he had exhausted all his strength, the blade only moved upward slowly, centimeter by centimeter, blocked by flesh and bones.

Veins were already popping up in the hand holding the knife. Itachi used his last bit of strength to try to kill himself, but this effort was in vain. The ribs blocking the blade were not so easy to cut.

"Help me, Sasuke..." Itachi muttered.

Sasuke then remembered that his brother had never asked him for help, and he had never helped him with anything.

However, the only request, the only help, what Itachi asked for turned out to be this kind of thing, extremely absurd, extremely cruel, and extremely true!

Sasuke closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face. He had not cried for many years, but this time he could no longer suppress the sadness in his heart.

There was a flash of light, and the Kusanagi sword was as fast as lightning, gently slicing across Itachi's neck.

The smiling head hung down, and there was still a trace of flesh involved, but it was not completely severed. The body fell forward upright and fell to the ground. The entire seppuku ceremony was flawless and perfect.

With a "clang", the Kusanagi sword on Sasuke's hand fell to the ground, and he knelt down in front of Itachi's body as if he was exhausted.
