Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Familiar? Of course!

As the captain of the ANBU task force tasked with monitoring the Uchiha clan, he was naturally familiar with this scene after years of surveillance.

The man known as the Dark One of the Ninja World has always been a synonym for darkness.

"The suicide of Konoha's White Fang was quite unexpected, and such a heart shape is indeed unsuitable for the position of Hokage, but that is no excuse for the perpetrator to go unpunished."

Uchiha Yun chuckled lightly, "Nine years ago, Kumogakure forced Konoha to hand over the Hyuga clan members. You should also be aware of that incident, right?"

"After that, the Hokage committed suicide, and Konoha was on the verge of collapse under those two. Do you think they were guilty?"

Kakashi remained indifferent, while Guy, standing to the side, listened with a confused expression, though he caught a fraction of the key points and was now frowning in thought.

After a long while... Kakashi remained silent, but Guy seemed to understand.

"Snapped!"

With a clap of his hands, Ah Kai looked up and said, "So these two are the big bad guys!"

Kakashi raised his head and said in a deep voice, "You said one of the two is the Third Hokage."

Uh!

Akai, belatedly realizing what was happening, was completely bewildered.

Uchiha Yun stepped forward and patted Kakashi on the shoulder: "Take good care of Naruto Uzumaki, he will be the future of this village. Although he is a bit silly, it won't be long before you discover his strengths."

"Hiruzen Sarutobi won't live much longer, and I've wiped out Root as well. I know you often go to the memorial monument, so remember to stomp on that old man's head a few times for me, whether you have time or not."

"It's just that they don't want to get involved too much, otherwise, how could someone like that be placed on the memorial tablet? It's outrageous!"

After saying that, Uchiha Yun walked out, and judging from his figure, he was probably going to change shops to eat.

At this moment, Guy nudged Kakashi and asked in a low voice, "What that person just said, was it all true?"

Kakashi thought for a moment and nodded.

This answer left Akai speechless; he didn't know what to say next.

Are they enemies?

Based on what was just said, the other party destroyed the Root organization and then attacked the village's ninjas, so they are naturally enemies.

But it seems that because of this approach, Konoha's future will be bright.

After thinking for a moment, Guy looked at Kakashi.

Are you going to the memorial stone?

"Ah."

"Let's go, I'll come too."

What are you going to do?

"I want to ask my dad, is the blooming of youth for them or for the future?"

……

Konoha Hospital.

After the Third Hokage left, Naruto lay on his hospital bed looking out the window.

But soon, the door to the ward was opened again.

Three figures squeezed in. Yamanaka Ino brought a bouquet of flowers, which she placed in a vase after entering.

None of the four people spoke.

After a long while, Naruto looked at Shikamaru and said, "I'm sorry."

Shikamaru shook his head: "You can't control such power. Nobody knew his Sharingan would reach this level, right?"

Ino hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Was it really Sasuke... who killed Asuma-sensei? He... he shouldn't have that kind of power."

Shikamaru looked over upon hearing this.

He knew very well that Ino had liked Sasuke Uchiha since school, but now, to them, Sasuke was an enemy, the enemy who killed their teacher.

"I saw it with my own eyes."

Everyone was stunned by Shikamaru's words.

Ino frowned, her hands clenched, and her eyes showed a hint of helplessness.

She simply couldn't understand how such an approachable Sasuke, who often helped those around him at school, could kill Asuma-sensei.

"Boom."

The potato chip bag was crushed, and Choji's eyes reddened.

Although they hadn't known each other for long, Asuma-sensei was the only teacher who would treat him to unlimited barbecue, even if he had to ask the owner to let him eat his fill.

"Shikamaru...do you think Sasuke did something wrong?"

Naruto's voice rang out, and Choji and Ino looked at him in disbelief.

Asuma-sensei is dead, is that still the right thing to do?

However, after a while...

Shikamaru sighed and replied, "From his perspective, he's not wrong. So many members of the Uchiha clan died, leaving only three. It's just revenge; what's wrong with that?"

"But similarly, our teacher was killed. Our teacher was very good to us, so it's not wrong for us to want revenge."

"I knew some things, so I helped him. That's why I survived. Otherwise, as a newly graduated genin, I would have no reason to live."

Naruto looked at Shikamaru, his gaze gradually hardening.

"I will become Hokage and bring Sasuke back! I will also shoulder the hatred between you and Sasuke! Believe me, I will!"

Something inexplicable surrounded Shikamaru and his companions, something they couldn't explain, yet a sense of trust surfaced in their absurd hearts.

Absurdity stems from reality, but trust arises inexplicably.

……

Chapter 384: The Choice After the Truth

The border between the Land of Frost and the Land of Thunder.

The spatial portal opened, and Uchiha Kumo appeared beside the three waiting people.

"I went to Konoha to take care of some business, which delayed me for a while."

Yun smiled as she spoke.

But Sasuke, standing to the side, pouted and asked, "Is the takoyaki tasty?"

Uh!

Sasuke exhaled and looked at Yun: "Brother Yun, you will eventually leave, won't you? Before that, Yun Village will definitely accept us and won't dare to make any moves, but the fear will eventually fade with time..."

Then Sasuke looked at Izumi and asked, "And Izumi-neechan, Kumogakure isn't your friend, is it?"

Izumi paused for a moment, then reached out and placed her hand on Sasuke's head: "You've grown up, Sasuke."

Sasuke turned aside, shaking off the hand on his head, still looking at Izumi: "Before this, joining Kumogakure was a last resort. Also, in Izumi's plan, the benefits of the nine Sharingan and the message she left me in her mind would gradually put their guard down. But now..."

"Fear fades with time and greed. From initial caution to eventual oppression and silencing... these are things a great ninja village will inevitably do, aren't they?"

Uchiha Hazuki, who was resting nearby, glanced at the two of them, and finally her gaze settled on Uchiha Yun.

Son of another world?

After pondering for a moment, Uchiha Hazuki did not voice her guess, because she felt that the person in front of her had his own plans.

He... seems to be intentionally putting pressure on Sasuke, forcing him to grow.

"That memory has indeed changed you a lot, perhaps also due to the guidance you've received from Izumi and others over the years."

Uchiha Yun looked at Sasuke and said, "So... do you want to know the truth about the annihilation of the Uchiha clan?"

the truth?

Sasuke was stunned. Was there any truth he didn't know?

The Root organization of Konoha was involved, but the Third Hokage turned a blind eye, choosing to let the Root organization destroy this troublesome entity, and then appear before him in a righteous and glorious image.

what else?

"In fact, what you saw that day was not the whole story."

Yun glanced at the two people in front of her, then casually found a rock and sat down.

"Four years ago, Izumi had already awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan. With those eyes, he was qualified to participate in the Naka Shrine clan meeting. So... you should know that at that time, the Uchiha's militant faction did indeed have the intention of a coup."

Uchiha Izumi nodded: "But the clan leader was hesitant. At that time, I didn't quite understand, but now it seems that the clan leader's hesitation may be because of Uchiha Itachi."

"Once the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan reaches the Mangekyou Sharingan level, the special eye techniques will cause the Uchiha's combat power to increase dramatically. In this case, Itachi Uchiha's stance is extremely important."

"Later... he chose to... slaughter the entire Uchiha clan."

Yun looked at Quan and sighed: "That guy has been mentally unstable since he was a child. He was taken to the battlefield by Fugaku when he was young, and the trauma was probably too great."

"However... that's not what I wanted to say."

Then Yun looked at Sasuke: "Based on the highly probable coup attempt by the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Shisui was committed to seeking a peaceful solution. In the end... the dim-witted man told Hiruzen Sarutobi and other high-ranking officials about the abilities of his Mangekyou Sharingan."

"Kotoamatsukami can control a person's mind for a long time without their knowledge. He told the Konoha leadership about this ability, trying to control Fugaku in order to achieve a peaceful outcome."

Sasuke on the other side shook his head slightly.

“That’s impossible. Although I didn’t experience that time, it’s clear that you’re talking about the martial arts faction, not my father’s decision. He himself was also hesitant.”

"It is clear that controlling my father will not solve the problem at its root. Doing so will only push my father to the opposite side of the militant faction."

Another little surprise. Yun smiled as she looked at Sasuke, who was deep in thought.

It was just a small change, along with his living environment and the guidance of Izumi and Hazuki Uchiha, that taught Sasuke, who should have been owed a debt by the whole world, to think and to have his own opinions.

Sasuke Uchiha wasn't stupid; a stupid person couldn't have seen through Deidara's weakness in such a short time.

“You’re absolutely right, and Danzo and Hiruzen Sarutobi should have seen the same thing. Don’t doubt the wisdom of a seasoned politician with decades of experience; it was precisely because he saw this that the subsequent tragedy occurred.”

Izumi, who was standing nearby, also remembered the Sharingan that had been given to the Third Hokage back then.
