The blackening of the heavens begins with Hokage

The screen changes.

Returning again to the time when Uchiha just died.

Until Uchiha Itachi's death, Naruto still stood there in a daze, not realizing what was going on. He held the scroll in one hand and Uchiha Itachi's 'entrustment' in the other.

I couldn't speak for a long time.

My mind went blank.

I don't know how long it took, but Naruto, who seemed to be awakened by the excessively quiet atmosphere, finally realized that something was wrong. Why... why was there no movement from Sasuke's brother?

He yelled twice in a daze.

"Weasel?"

"Itachi Uchiha?"

Seeing Itachi Uchiha lowering his head and showing no reaction, at this moment, Naruto still didn't know what was going on?

‘Crack!’ a sound.

Naruto's legs were weak and he knelt down.

However, this is not the kind of kneeling that Uchiha Itachi used to express his regret.

Instead, he was so shocked by this cruel reality that his soul collapsed, his legs became weak, and he knelt helplessly. Naruto looked at Uchiha Itachi in front of him in disbelief, and then looked at the hand in his hand.

Two items.

The actions of the village and the tragedies caused made him feel extremely chilled.

Why?

What happened to the village?

What's going on with this world?

Why do these things happen around me?

Why do these things happen to people I care about?

My mind can't help but recall all the past events.

He thought of his father, the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato. It can be said that he has been making contributions to the village his whole life. Even if he became Hokage, he would rather sacrifice his life, his wife, and even himself for the sake of the village.

's son.

But what did he get?

What is it that is being protected?

He thought of his mother, Uzumaki Kushina. She became the vessel to seal the Nine-Tails in the village. Her life was greatly threatened and she was not free.

But what did she get?

Who is she protecting?

He thought of his mother clan, the Uzumaki clan. They were the eternal allies of the village and fought for the village through life and death. But what did they get?

A man who was abandoned by Konoha and refused to save his family ended up being exterminated?

Thinking of myself.

Both parents and family have made great contributions to the village.

Since he was a baby, he has been a new generation of Nine-Tails container.

It can be said that my own destiny is also out of my control and is firmly locked by the village.

But what did he get?

All this in exchange for being looked down upon since childhood? In exchange for being deprived of freedom? In exchange for being imprisoned and living a miserable life?

Or is it to be replaced by the person he is today, threatening himself with the person he values ​​​​?

Soul value:23/40

The degree of blackening...

63%…

64%…

65%…

66%…

Naruto, who was slumped on the ground, took out a brand new scroll by accident, and first put Uchiha Itachi's 'entrustment' into this brand new scroll.

Then he placed the bundle of scrolls that Itachi Uchiha gave him on the ground.

Open slowly.

The movement did not stop, and Naruto murmured to himself while operating: "I will call you Brother Shisui. Although I don't know you, I believe that your influence on Brother Itachi must be very profound.

if not you……

Maybe Brother Itachi wouldn't have taken such an extreme path.

if not you……

Maybe Sasuke wouldn't have such a tragic experience.

His temperament would not have changed drastically back then.

Next, let me see the world clearly for you..."

Uchiha Itachi said to himself. Although Naruto was still in a daze at the time, he still heard what he said. After a little analysis, he made a guess and came up with these words.

After a while.

The scrolls spread out on the ground were stained with scarlet blood.

at the same time.

The power of the Kyuubi was also constantly repairing the wounds on Naruto's eyes.

The excruciating pain in my eyes gradually disappeared.

The closed eyes began to slowly adapt to these eyes. The eyeballs moved left and right and up and down. When Naruto opened his eyes again, it was Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan!

It was at this time.

There was some movement behind Naruto.

He turned around and saw that it was Hiruzen Sarutobi who had been lurking for a long time!

Because the area affected by the battle between the two was too large, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who originally wanted to hide in the surrounding area and wait for the opportunity to strike secretly, had to retreat far away.

When the two huge monsters disappeared at the same time, even the sound of fighting stopped.

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately rushed over from his hiding place.

When I first arrived at the scene, the first scene I saw happened to be the moment Naruto turned around and stared at him with the Mangekyō Sharingan!

Naruto's cold gaze coupled with the terrifying Mangekyō Sharingan.

Immediately, Sarutobi Hiruzen was so frightened that his whole body couldn't help but tremble. He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Naruto in front of him: "You...you...you...how do you have these eyes?!"

He looked at Naruto.

Then he looked at Uchiha Itachi who was motionless.

Sarutobi Hiruzen only felt more and more frightened and angry!

Naruto, who mistook him for being cold-blooded, had already captured Uchiha Itachi's eyes.

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen coming alone, Naruto guessed the old guy's thoughts in a moment. Just like Kakashi, the Mangekyō Sharingan returned to the state of the three magatama and could no longer be closed.

The three Magatama Sharingan looked directly at the old guy in front of him and asked, "What's wrong? Do you want to silence me?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned.

Naruto guessed his thoughts and he didn't feel ashamed.

This only made him more determined to kill Naruto!

Gritting his teeth, he secretly felt cruel in his heart: Okay——! Sure enough, you are the hidden danger! Then it is impossible to let you go!

Not planning to respond to Naruto.

At the same time, he didn't intend to give Naruto a chance to react!

Quickly form seals with both hands!

The target is locked on Naruto!

'Ghoul Seal!'

That’s right!

Regardless of whether Uchiha Itachi or Naruto survives today, he is prepared to use the 'Ghoul Seal' as the last resort to perish together with the surviving party!

If the one who survived was Uchiha Itachi.

That would be perfect.

He only had to wait a moment for the 'others' to approach, then take action in front of everyone and die together with Uchiha Itachi. Then he could truly realize his great contribution of sacrificing for Konoha.

But if Naruto is the one who survives...

Then there is nothing more to say!

You must take action to deal with Naruto before others arrive here!

If there is no proof, others will only think that he, the Hokage, rushed to the scene to deal with the enemy in order to protect Konoha.

Even if someone from the Yamanaka Clan actually spies something into the corpse’s brain, it doesn’t matter!

Sarutobi Hiruzen is very confident that at most only a few people know the truth, and his old friends will definitely help him hide the truth.

After all, these old guys wouldn't want to hear about what happened back then...
