Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Why... was it that only the weakest of me survived?

Naruto and Hinata are both stronger than me, so why did I survive?

"A member of the Uchiha clan? Are you the reason Uchiha Itachi withdrew from the battlefield?"

The voice came from behind. Sasuke turned around and saw a guy with the same black clothes and red clouds, and the same pupils, coming straight at him.

"boom!!"

A tomoe formed from red chakra shot out, forcing the Human Path back with a single strike.

Meanwhile, Itachi, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Pain, was completely enveloped in Susanoo, with blood trickling from the corner of his eye.

"Susanoo in the form of Karasu Tengu... This is the second time already. Including the several times you've used Amaterasu before, how much longer can your eyes withstand this?"

Pain floated up and stopped in mid-air at the same height as Itachi: "From the moment my original body was fully restored, the power of the Six Paths of Pain has been different from before. Those abilities that would exhaust chakra can still be used once or twice."

"But Uchiha Itachi... how many more times can you use your eyes?"

Inside Susanoo, Itachi calmly looked at Pain: "Facing the Hokage, who has the fastest speed in the ninja world, you still have the mind to focus your attention here... But in doing so, you have at least restrained a portion of his power."

Pain shook his head slightly: "In fact, you and I should both know that the outcome of this war is not determined by you and me, but by Uzumaki Sora and Uchiha Kumo."

Upon hearing this, Itachi also shook his head: "No. Perhaps... we will become the final factor in deciding the outcome."

As soon as he finished speaking, Susanoo brought his sharp blade down with a sudden thud.

Shinra Tensei!

With a single strike, even the massive Susanoo was pushed back.

But at the same time, Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan activated its power again.

Amaterasu!

The black flames suddenly appeared on Pain's body as his gaze fell upon him, but the repulsive force still had a second to cool down.

"Oh!"

The black flames engulfed Pain, and this blurry scene finally brought Itachi a sigh of relief.

however……

Spiritual communication!

Smoke shrouded Amaterasu's fire, and under the Mangekyou Sharingan, something invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared behind the opponent.

has a problem!

Without hesitation, Susanoo swung out the sharp blade in his hand.

"hiss……"

Susanoo stopped halfway through, and the armor in its Karasu Tengu form was gradually dissipating, even making its skeleton teeter on the verge of collapse.

At this moment, Itachi covered his eyes, his body swaying precariously.

Fresh blood kept seeping from between his fingers.

Before the smoke had even cleared, Pain and the Preta Path they had previously killed reappeared completely unharmed.

“I’ve said it before, your eyes can’t sustain your fighting prowess. You awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan during the war between Konoha and Kumogakure, which was over nine years ago…”

The Heavenly Dao floated slowly in mid-air once more: "Your combat experience is that of a true ninja; every step is precisely calculated. The pincer attack just now made excellent use of the instantaneous nature of Amaterasu's fire..."

"However, from now on, you will have no power left to resist me."

Itachi stood up, trembling, his gaze fixed on Pain opposite him: "As the elder brother, I must stand before my younger brother. Even if... I die for it!"

Pain said expressionlessly, "Your death is not meaningless for the sake of true peace."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure that had disappeared behind Pain while Itachi was in a daze suddenly appeared behind Susanoo.

This scene prompted Sasuke to immediately call out a warning, but it was already too late.

Susanoo, already on the verge of collapse, was utterly vulnerable in the face of the resurrected Preta Realm.

Sealing Technique Absorption Seal!

A massive vortex appeared in the center of the Preta Path's palm, and the Susanoo's skeleton, which was already on the verge of collapse, was instantly shattered by the attack.

"boom!"

Itachi fell heavily to the ground, but Sasuke, who was watching his brother closely, caught him.

My brother... failed as well.

Itachi, who had collapsed into Sasuke's arms, now had pupils that had returned to normal, even turning white.

This is a sign of blindness!

"Sasuke."

Itachi's weak voice rang out: "Run..."

With bloodshot eyes and tears streaming down his face, Sasuke gritted his teeth and shook his head violently.

Naruto was killed, the village was destroyed, and even his brother had failed...

escape?

Why should I, who am at my weakest, survive in this world?

"escape?"

A cold, clear voice appeared, and Pain, the Deva Path, stood before Sasuke.

"You are Itachi's younger brother, so you must be the reincarnation of Indra's chakra, the eldest son of the Sage of Six Paths, right? Uzumaki Sora once mentioned that your existence would be a threat to the peace of this world in the future."

So... you should just die!

"Shh!"

The black iron rod pierced out instantly.

"puff!"

The iron rod pierced Itachi's heart, and Itachi grabbed his wrist at that moment.

Amaterasu! !

His black eyes instantly transformed into a kaleidoscope, and Amaterasu's flames spread across Pain's entire body.

The Heavenly Dao, burning without showing any sign of pain, said: "You should know that doing this is pointless. As a puppet, I feel no pain, and I can reappear quickly after killing you."

Itachi, whose heart had been pierced, did not reply. Instead, he glanced at Sasuke, and blood gushed from his eyes once more.

In an instant, endless black flames enveloped the surroundings, leaving only one passage for Sasuke.

"escape!!!"

Amidst the roar, tears streamed down her face from her twin-tomoe eyes.

Sasuke turned and ran away.

At this moment, he knew very well what the meaning of his life was; staying would only make his brother's death meaningless.

Only by living can revenge be taken!

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the enemy who could absorb ninjutsu was still absorbing the black flames, but the others were almost burned to ashes.

My brother's last words also reached my ears at that moment.

"One of the factors that allows for resurrection is the remains, right? In that case, at least you have been truly destroyed by me today."

As soon as he finished speaking, Itachi's figure was also enveloped in Amaterasu's flames.

"elder brother!!!"

In an instant, the two tomoe in Sasuke's eye sockets began to rotate, and a new tomoe appeared.

……

Sasuke wiped away his tears as he fled, while battle raged throughout the village.

Giant summoning beasts were everywhere. More than a dozen ANBU ninjas surrounded a giant dog, but each time they were defeated, the giant dog would split into more.

The chameleon, capable of cloaking itself invisibly, lurks and takes a life every time it reveals itself.

Not far away, the Hokage Building was flashing with golden light, and three giant toads blocked a rhinoceros and a bull.

Meanwhile, in the sky, a Yatagarasu bird kept dropping bombs, destroying houses one after another.

Sasuke, his eyes bloodshot, stopped behind a water tower.

His gaze was fixed on the location of the Hokage Building.

The enemy fighting the Hokage... is actually the previous Hokage?!

"You're surprised, aren't you, Sasuke-kun?"

The sudden sound startled Sasuke, who was now as frightened as a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow.

Turning around, I saw a person with snake-like pupils standing before me.

Orochimaru looked at the battlefield not far away: "Although he had the help of Tsunade and Jiraiya, he truly deserves to be called the Fourth Hokage... Sasuke-kun, the fact that the Hokage of each generation can shine again is all thanks to me."

"So, how about it? Interested in coming to my place?"

Sasuke held a kunai across his chest, his eyes filled with vigilance.

However, Orochimaru did not give up: "Your time is running out. Once the Fourth Hokage and Uchiha Kumo are defeated, even I will no longer have the chance to take you away."

Sasuke's hoarse voice rang out: "A person who can only tremble in this corner is unlikely to give me power. And... you are also my enemy."

"boom!"

The roar interrupted the standoff between the two men.

Giant trees bound Tsunade and Jiraiya, and then a flash of white light appeared, followed by a long sword that killed them both instantly.

The golden light stopped for a moment.

The Fourth Hokage was also stopped by a bolt of lightning. He was momentarily distracted by his teacher's death, which gave the enemy an opportunity to seize.

“That was the Third Raikage. I used the Impure World Reincarnation technique to awaken him. Now your Hokage… is doomed.”

Sasuke clenched his fists: "Not yet! As long as Brother Yun... as long as Brother Yun can kill that Uzumaki Sora, Konoha has not yet failed!"
