Chapter 469 The Battle Between Itachi Uchiha and Aizen

All along,

The pain of Itachi Uchiha massacring his entire clan haunted him constantly, an image that could never be erased.

But at the same time,

Aside from his pain, he also felt a sense of pride and self-satisfaction.

Although he betrayed his clan, he practiced the Will of Fire and made great sacrifices for it.

The Hokage saw all of this.

Despite being classified as a top-secret file and treated as a rogue ninja, she was never hunted down by the ninja forces sent by the Hokage. In fact, she was entrusted with an important mission and joined the Akatsuki organization as a double agent.

This is the source of Itachi Uchiha's pride and honor; he embodied the dazzling Will of Fire with his own life and that of his clan.

They protect the village.

But now, one of the sources of pride, a top-secret file known only to the Hokage and his advisors, has been casually revealed by a mere Aizen Sousuke.

This attack was like taking the full force of a Kaleidoscope-like eye technique, Tsukuyomi.

Aizen smiled and said, "Mr. Itachi Uchiha, don't be nervous. I am the Hokage's most trusted person. You don't need to worry about your file being leaked."

Am I worried about the files being leaked?

Uchiha Itachi, who was usually not prone to emotional fluctuations, looked rather unwell.

Even Kisame Hoshigaki, who was standing nearby, noticed something amiss and was somewhat surprised.

"It's alright, take me to see the Hokage."

Uchiha Itachi adjusted his mindset and regained his calm demeanor.

Aizen shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Itachi Uchiha, but without the Hokage's permission, outsiders cannot meet the Hokage directly. This is also to protect his safety."

He gave a very prudent explanation.

Because the special abilities of the Reincarnation Game are numerous, unheard of, and impossible to defend against, they are far superior to the strange and unusual ninjutsu of the original ninja world.

Therefore, for impromptu meetings like this, it is definitely necessary to conduct screening in advance to ensure that there is no threat before taking Uchiha Itachi to see the Hokage.

"Protecting my safety?"

Itachi Uchiha's emotions, which had just calmed down, were stirred up again.

A hidden anger rose, but upon closer reflection, there was no reason to refute it. Indeed, as Aizen said, if attacked suddenly by an outsider, it would be impossible to defend against.

But... he himself was Uchiha Itachi, who inherited the Will of Fire, possessed the mindset of a Hokage, and was willing to sacrifice everything for Konoha.

It is indeed necessary to ensure the safety of the Hokage.

But when this approach is applied to oneself...

Itachi Uchiha didn't know what to say. If he thought it was true, it would be too ulterior motive-driven. After all, he killed his entire clan to join Konoha, and what he wanted was not privilege or reward.

But I still felt uneasy.

"Is there a problem, Mr. Uchiha Itachi? If not, please come with me?"

Aizen spoke as if it were a casual remark, turning his head to look at the burly figure beside him, and said, "Is he your comrade? He cannot enter Konoha for the time being and needs to be questioned in Konoha's interrogation room."

He was referring to Kisame Hoshigaki.

He also wore a shattered headband with mist on his forehead, making his identity obvious.

Back then, Mei Terumi, the leader of Kirigakure, sought out Kisame Hoshigaki, hoping to bring him back to Kirigakure, but Kisame refused, as he really didn't want to go back on his word.

He was nearly burned to death by the Water Shadow for this.

"Instead of meeting the Hokage directly, they're interrogating my comrades?"

Itachi Uchiha exhaled, made no further move, and simply nodded, saying, "I want to go with him."

"no."

Aizen smiled apologetically, "The contents of the interrogation cannot be disclosed. Please forgive my rudeness."

Even Kisame Hoshigaki didn't expect that Itachi would be treated like this when he returned to the village.

When Mei Terumi tried to recruit him, she promised that if he was willing to return to Kirigakure, even the infamous Itachi Uchiha could become the captain of Kirigakure's assassination squad.

The two are a stark contrast.

Itachi Uchiha had obviously thought of this as well, but he still didn't act on it.

Aizen clearly knew the contents of his own file; he was still a Konoha ninja, but because he sacrificed himself to carry out missions and fulfill the Will of Fire, this was unknown to outsiders.

This guy actually used the same methods he used to interrogate criminals on me.

Was this truly the Hokage's intention, or did Aizen act on his own?

Itachi Uchiha couldn't believe that he, who was loyal to Konoha and the Hokage, would be treated like this upon returning to the village.

Itachi Uchiha pondered expressionlessly, "It must have been Aizen who acted on his own initiative. Should we teach that guy a lesson?"

He has never been the type to be bullied.

It was only because of their weakness towards the Hokage and Danzo that everyone misunderstood.

For example, Sasuke Uchiha, Orochimaru, and Kakashi—whoever provokes you first will indiscriminately receive a Tsukuyomi attack.

"Come with me."

Aizen seemed oblivious to Itachi's subtle change in expression and continued speaking to himself.

Then he turned around and walked forward.

Another fire-style ninja escorted Kisame Hoshigaki away towards the Konoha interrogation room.

Lush forest,

The two stepped into the Konoha barrier. Aizen, having memorized the incantation, conveyed the message of his people to the barrier's guardian.

The other party allowed them to pass immediately.

The current barrier consists of two layers: the outermost layer is the warning layer, and deeper inside are various attack states of the game's city walls, ghost energy cannons, vampire magic circles, and the vengeful spirit of the Sky Sea Dragon human leader, which was upgraded later.

Even if Itachi Uchiha were a Gold Saint, he would still be stopped.

Furthermore, it will unleash extremely violent energy fluctuations, alarming the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

This is also why Itachi Uchiha didn't sneak into Konoha like before and secretly eat red bean dumplings in the teahouse.

"Mr. Aizen seems to be highly regarded by the Hokage."

Itachi Uchiha stared at Aizen's retreating figure, his eyes flickering.

Even the spells of the game's walls are clear; even I myself didn't have this right back then.

"It's alright. What I want is not to be valued. Protecting the village, protecting the civilians, and letting the light of the Will of Fire shine on every inch of the land are what we should be thinking about."

"If we only consider the Hokage's favoritism, then even if it takes another ten thousand years, the Will of Fire will not be able to spread."

"What do you think, Mr. Uchiha Itachi?"

As Aizen spoke, he politely turned his head to look at Itachi Uchiha, who was following behind him.

"Is that so? As expected of Konoha's Moonlight, the Will of Fire is truly admirable."

Uchiha Itachi said this, but the moment Aizen turned his head, the black tomoe in his eyes spun wildly.

The next second, it materialized into the shape of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Furthermore, it is a second-order Mangekyou Sharingan enhanced by the scroll, Tsukuyomi.

moment,

Aizen felt a blur before his eyes and was pulled into the Tsukuyomi space.

"This is the Tsukuyomi Space."

Itachi Uchiha's leisurely voice came from all directions.

"In this space, all space and time will be under my control. Even if you wish to die, you cannot do so without my permission, Aizen Sousuke!"
