Danzō's words, like sharp knives, deeply pierced Itachi's heart.
"I agree." After a long while, Uchiha Itachi calmly uttered these three words.
"Oh, that's great." Danzō was obviously stunned. He didn't expect Uchiha Itachi to agree so easily.
He was very clear about how determined Itachi was to say these seemingly calm three words, because once he agreed, Uchiha Itachi's life would be ruined, both past and future.
Very good, time is of the essence, you should do it tonight. Also, after exterminating the entire Uchiha clan, you will inevitably become the most disgraceful side of Konoha.
At that time, please collect information that is detrimental to Konoha as a rogue ninja. For your sacrifice of the small family for the sake of everyone, I.
"I have one condition." Before Danzō could finish speaking, Itachi spoke again.
"Oh, what condition?" Danzō raised an eyebrow and asked.
"I want my brother to live. Also, you are not allowed to attack him in the future," Itachi said.
"Brother... just a child. After the Uchiha clan is exterminated, what he will hate is Uchiha Itachi, not the village. It doesn't matter..." Danzō thought secretly.
"I promise you, after the extermination, Sasuke will be the only living member of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village," Danzō said.
I... have no problems." Uchiha Itachi took a light breath and slowly got up. "Danzō-sama, remember what you said today.
If I find out that you are doing anything detrimental to my brother in the future, I will announce today's events without missing a word.
"Don't worry, we are both for the sake of Konoha Village. I know my limits," Danzō said.
Uchiha Itachi stopped talking. His face seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute." Danzō suddenly spoke again, "Can you do it alone? If not, I can send people to help you."
"No need, I have a way," Uchiha Itachi's voice came, but his footsteps did not stop, and he walked further and further away.
"Uchiha Itachi, if Konoha wants peace, it needs a hero like you who hides in the darkness.
Although Konoha doesn't acknowledge you, I will remember you," Danzō said coldly in the dark environment.
After Uchiha Itachi walked out of the cold and damp Anbu, he did not stop and walked straight out of Konoha Village, arriving at a dense forest in the southeast.
"Come out," Itachi said coldly.
Suddenly, there was a wave in the space in front of him, and a masked man appeared in the vortex caused by the wave. It was Uchiha Obito.
"What's the matter? What do you want me for?" Obito said. Uchiha Itachi was the only person in the village who had discovered his existence. He still had to be wary of a genius like Itachi.
"I agree to help you avenge the Uchiha clan," Itachi said.
"Oh? What you said is a bit of a surprise to me," Obito said, "I thought you would......"
"As a condition of exchange, you are not allowed to attack the village again in the future. The Fourth's incident, the Nine-Tails' rampage, once is enough," Itachi said faintly.
No problem. As long as you help me destroy the Uchiha clan, I, Uchiha Madara, will make an agreement with you.
As long as you are alive, I will not have any thoughts about Konoha Village, Obito replied.
"Am I still alive..." Itachi smiled bitterly. He was afraid that his condition of exchange could only be done to this extent.
"When will we start the operation?" Obito continued to ask.
"Tonight," Itachi said.
...
A day passed like this. At this time, it was dusk again. With the sound of the school bell, Wan'er ran to the training ground again.
However, this time there was not only Kaoru on the training ground, but also Uchiha Sasuke.
"Brother, school's out, let's go home!" Wan'er shouted at Kaoru.
"Okay." Kaoru nodded, put away the kunai in his hand, and then turned to look at Sasuke, who was still jumping on the ground.
"What's wrong, Sasuke? School's out, aren't you going home?" Kaoru asked.
"Not so fast yet!" Sasuke's running figure did not stop. Today at noon, my brother taught me a new shuriken technique and bet me that I wouldn't be able to learn it today.
Now I have to practice this move completely before going home!
Sasuke said plausibly and threw out several shurikens again.
"A new shuriken technique, Uchiha Itachi..." Kaoru felt that there seemed to be something hidden in this.
"Okay, brother, don't pay attention to him, let's go back," Wan'er's lively voice interrupted Kaoru's thoughts.
"Let's go, let's go," Kaoru said with a smile and walked out of the training ground side by side with Wan'er.
Arriving at the Uchiha clan's residence, a huge banner pasted on the wall immediately attracted Kaoru and Wan'er's attention.
Due to the recent rampant bandits, the clan leader and other leaders have decided to implement a curfew this week.
Anyone should not walk around after midnight. Violators will be responsible for the consequences!
"Bandits?" Wan'er was full of doubts. "We live here in relative peace. I haven't heard anyone nearby say that there are bandits here?"
"Maybe we're relatively poor, and the bandits don't look at us," Kaoru said like this, but his thoughts were spinning.
Implementing a curfew? The Uchiha clan's high-level officials seem to be planning to take action soon.
In that case, the day of the massacre is also in the next few days. Should he go somewhere else to hide first...?
"There are no bandits in our residence," just as Kaoru was thinking, Wan'er said dissatisfied.
"The biggest bandits here are those stinky police force members who wear ninja headbands and boss people around every day!"
"Shh..." Kaoru quickly covered Wan'er's mouth to prevent her from continuing to speak.
This was the entrance of the Uchiha residence, and there were many people from the police force in charge of security.
"What did you say, you brat!" Sure enough, a ninja with a sharp ear heard it and asked Kaoru's brother and sister sternly.
"It's nothing," Kaoru said faintly, "My sister is young and doesn't understand things. She's just talking nonsense."
After saying that, he pulled Wan'er away in a hurry.
"Hmph, two little brats look down on the police force. Soon the entire Konoha will be in our palms. You Uchiha brat will be soaked our glory..."
Kaoru didn't hear clearly what the ninja said later, because he had already pulled Wan'er's hand further and further away.
And the anxiety and unease in his heart became stronger and stronger.
