Naruto: First Love

Chapter 396 Past Events

Although he didn't know whether what Xinzi said was true or not, Xinzi's words sounded convincing, so Sasuke still had some doubts.

He remembered Shisui's death most clearly.

It was during the time when Zhishui died that the man became like that, it was terrible.

The relationship with my father also began to become strained.

At that time, the Uchiha clan still suspected that Shisui's death was related to that man, but he didn't believe it at all.

Shisui had a very good relationship with him, and she even came to his house to visit that man several times.

"I was there that night too. I wanted to find Shisui because of a mission, but I watched Shisui jump off the Minamiga River, so..." Xinzi said, opening her eyes, with three black magatama flowing in her red eyeballs.

Sasuke knew what the words meant even before they were finished.

Because she watched Shisui die, she opened her Sharingan?
Or, did he open the three-magatama Sharingan after seeing Shisui die? The Sharingan is not an easy bloodline limit to reach heaven in one step, it needs to evolve, and he only has two-magatama Sharingan now. Shinko's eyes are already three-magatama Sharingan, I'm afraid he has encountered a lot of things.

But Sasuke didn't want to explore too much, so he nodded and planned to listen to Xinzi continue.

"Then Konoha was in turmoil during that period. It was not peaceful at all. I went out on a mission and my team was wiped out. I was seriously injured. It was also during that time that I met Orochimaru. Orochimaru is not a good person. He is capable of murder and arson. He is also very powerful. After knowing that the Uchiha clan was in trouble, I was entrusted by someone to return to Konoha and come to find you."

"Entrusted by someone?" Sasuke frowned immediately when he heard this word.

Is it that his heart is not willing to take care of him?
"I only know that something happened between Konoha and Uchiha, so the subsequent genocide happened so quickly, overnight..." Xinzi paused here.

Sasuke remembered it immediately. Yes, overnight, and not even overnight, the Uchiha clan was wiped out. How could that man be so strong?
"Later, I checked various sources and found out that there was also a masked man who took action that year."

Xinzi thought that the conflict between Uchiha and Konoha could not be directly revealed, but there had to be a process, so it would be better to give Sasuke some preventive measures first.

As for Afei's affairs, whether Itachi took the initiative or was passive, they were closely related to him.

He is indeed pitiful, but isn't it hateful that he inflicts his own suffering on others?

She had heard a saying, "There must be something hateful about pitiful people", which probably refers to people like Ah Fei.

"What masked man?" Sasuke asked anxiously.

He remembered what Xinzi told him that day, that Izumi and Naruto had the same enemy, could it be that person?

"He's probably a very powerful person, and seems to be from the Uchiha clan, but his identity is still unclear. We only know that during the Nine-Tails incident... that was the year you and Naruto were born, Naruto's parents died. You probably don't know it yet, but there is a real monster in Naruto's body, the Nine-Tails. He is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and that Gaara is the One-Tails Jinchuriki. They are both Jinchuriki, and only when they are called monsters will they understand each other's feelings."

Koko tried her best to keep Sasuke safe, and specifically pointed out that the reason Naruto was able to defeat Gaara was because he was also a Jinchūriki.

Sasuke naturally thought of how sometimes people in the village would call Naruto a monster, and so this was the case.

He is not a wicked person at heart, he is just stubborn and has gotten himself into a dead end. He only thinks about Itachi and revenge, which is why he turned evil.

"I heard from my master that the person who controlled the Nine-Tails and brought disaster to Konoha, causing the sacrifice of the Fourth Hokage, was a man wearing a mask. Because the Sharingan can control the tailed beasts, some people in Konoha suspected that the Uchiha clan did it. Therefore, the people of Konoha and the Uchiha clan were not very harmonious in those years and did not talk much to each other."

"I still remember that, besides Izumi, I only remember Kiba's sister. The others didn't talk to me much. It was only after I changed my name to Usami that I got to know more people."

In fact, when Xinzi was called Uchiha Xinzi, she had no friends except Izumi, and she didn't know anyone outside - except the people around Fengjian Yexue.

She had not experienced much of the rejection of the Uchiha clan by the Konoha villagers, but she had witnessed Itachi endure such rejection.

Itachi only has Shisui as his friend, and even with Tianma, the relationship between them was built up slowly.

"I was in the same class with Itachi at that time, but when I was 8 years old, I met a masked man while on a mission. He killed Tianma, who was our teammate. I was also injured and wandered away. I came back later. After I came back, I no longer used my previous name because everyone thought I was dead. I didn't want to live my previous life anymore, so I changed my last name to follow my master."

I don’t know whether what happened later is true or not.

Koko's words sounded convincing, mixed with true and false, so Sasuke began to believe them.

In other words, we have to find the masked man first before we can find out many things?
"What are the characteristics of that masked man?" Sasuke's eyes were filled with hatred and were gloomy.

Xinzi looked at him and breathed a sigh of relief knowing that he had transferred all his anger to Ah Fei.

A Fei is really pitiful, but he released Kyuubi, killed his mother, and caused so many people in Konoha to die. Naruto lost his parents and became Kyuubi Jinchuriki. How many eyes have he received over the years?
In addition, because the Konoha high-level officials suspected that it was the Uchiha clan that released the Nine-Tails, they were very suspicious of the Uchiha clan, which led to the complete alienation of the Uchiha clan and the subsequent events.

Xinzi didn't know whether it was Ah Fei who killed Tianma, but the mask was real.

Xinzi later thought, maybe, it was Afei who set up a plan to make Itachi open the Sharingan and use it for his own benefit?

There is nothing wrong with Sasuke placing his hatred on Afei.

It's just that Ah Fei himself is pitiful after all, but in this kind of situation, can we tell who is right or wrong? Obviously not.

"I only know that he has a hole in his right eye, revealing one eye, and his mask is swirly-shaped. Later, when I was with Orochimaru, I met that man. He looked crazy, but he was very powerful. He only had one eye, and his illusions were particularly strong. I suspect he has the Sharingan."

It's just a suspicion, Xinzi didn't say anything definite.

"Don't just think about strengthening yourself and ignore everything else. You are the last descendant of the Uchiha clan. Do you think it is appropriate to pay the price of the Sharingan for strength? I hope you will think about it carefully. Naruto is so miserable, but he can live so well..."
