"Boss, let me offer this guy as a sacrifice to the evil god!" Hidan suggested fanatically.

The group appeared relaxed, clearly not taking the other party seriously.

Only Itachi Uchiha had a solemn expression; those black flames were clearly...

In this ninja world, besides himself, who else could possess the Mangekyou Sharingan and unleash Amaterasu?

Who exactly is this newcomer? Itachi was filled with doubt.

"Chief, who is this person?"

Itachi looked at Pain, who had remained silent.

He knew that Pain possessed a secret technique that allowed him to sense the slightest movement throughout the entire Amegakure village.

This ability is incredibly powerful; Pain must know the other party's identity perfectly.

In response to Itachi's question, Pain gave him a meaningful look:

"It's Uchiha Sasuke."

Every member who joins "Akatsuki" naturally has their background thoroughly investigated by Zetsu.

Nagato couldn't possibly be unaware of Itachi Uchiha's past, or his younger brother Sasuke who remained in Konoha.

A look of surprise suddenly appeared in Itachi's calm eyes.

"Sasuke?!"

A young, innocent figure flashed into my mind.

"No, it can't be him. He's only twelve years old, how could he possess such power..."

"On that tragic night, he had only just awakened the first tomoe."

Itachi inwardly denied it, then pondered, was the leader testing him?

"Boss, could it be that you've misread it?" Itachi asked.

Pain chuckled lightly but did not reply.

He turned to the others: "Whoever deals with him, the one who invades the divine realm, will only face death."

Hidan excitedly raised his hand, carrying the Bloodstained Three-Month Scythe, and stepped out from the group.

"Kakuzu, you'll be in his group."

“Happy to help.” Kakuzu shrugged, unconcerned.

This trip seems like it could make a fortune again...

The immortal duo set off immediately.

Pain's attitude weighed heavily on Itachi's heart. Could it be...?

Is it really Sasuke?

“I will go with you. If it is Sasuke, his target will definitely be me. Let me handle it.”

After saying this, Itachi Uchiha intended to go with Hidan and Kakuzu.

But Pain suddenly spoke up to stop him.

"Uchiha Itachi, you stay."

His voice carried an undeniable power.

Itachi paused, his hands, hidden in his sleeves, clenched unconsciously, and a flash of crimson crossed his eyes.

But eventually, he slowly relaxed, and the abnormality in his eyes returned to calm.

Before the truth is clear, it is not advisable to clash with Pain.

Itachi took a deep breath and watched Hidan and Kakuzu's figures gradually disappear into the distance.

....................................

On top of a majestic water tower, Sasuke's partially completed Susanoo slowly faded away, disappearing without a trace like morning mist meeting the sun.

"Doing this should lure them out, right?"

Sasuke whispered, his voice so soft it seemed to be just a murmur to his own heart.

"Hey, Sasuke, what are you doing here?" A voice came from above.

"Pain is not someone to be dealt with easily, especially the Pain who can absorb all ninjutsu. Without Sage Mode, he'll be a real headache."

A small, exquisite nine-tailed fox rests atop Sasuke's head; it is a special "gift" Naruto gave him at the moment of parting.

Naruto was naturally very worried when he learned that Sasuke was going to act alone.

He decided to give half of the Nine-Tails' power within him to Sasuke, ensuring his safety along the way.

Sasuke looked up, his eyes gleaming: "I've wanted to ask you this for a long time, how do you know so much?"

"You even know about Pain? Logically speaking, Pain shouldn't have shown his face in the ninja world yet, right?"

"You've been hiding inside Naruto's body the whole time, where did you get all this information?"

"Besides, Naruto is usually quite clumsy, yet he was able to use your power. This is clearly not something he could do on his own."

"So, the problem must be with you, Nine-Tails."

Kurama's eyes narrowed: "So, you, Uchiha Sasuke, are you interrogating me instead? Aren't you being rather strange yourself?"

"Looking at you now, you don't look like a twelve-year-old boy at all. And those ninjutsu techniques, I don't even have the heart to tell you about them."

"If it weren't for the fact that you still have Indra's chakra in your body, I would doubt whether you are an imposter Uchiha Sasuke."

Sasuke's face darkened, and he couldn't help but ask, "So what exactly is going on with you?"

"You... you've also been reborn?"

Chapter 113 The first to die are the "You Never Die" duo.

Upon hearing the words "reborn," Kurama (the Nine-Tails) was startled. It leaned out from above Sasuke's head, met his gaze, and spoke with disbelief in its tone:

"The same to you?"

The man and the fox looked into each other's eyes, and after a moment, they both burst out laughing, as if all their doubts had been resolved.

"When did you come from?" Sasuke asked.

"During the Fourth Shinobi World War? Or later?"

Sasuke recalled that it was during the Fourth Shinobi World War that Kurama (the Nine-Tails) and Naruto became connected and became true partners.

If Kurama is so friendly, then his rebirth shouldn't have happened any earlier.

"It was later than you think; Naruto was already married and had children by then."

Nine Lamas was lost in deep memories.

"He has a son named Boruto, who is mischievous all the time, just like Naruto when he was a child."

"And when did you arrive?"

After Kurama finished speaking, Sasuke's gaze became meaningful. Instead of answering, he asked a question:

"Then do you know Momoshiki Otsutsuki?"

Nine Lamas did not hesitate:

"Momoshiki Otsutsuki? Of course I know him, that guy is incredibly powerful."

"But in the end, they still lost. However, an even more troublesome move emerged later."

"I paid the price of my life to let Naruto defeat him."

Sasuke pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke:

"Nine-Tails, before we were reborn, we were probably on the same timeline."

"Huh?" Nine-Tails was taken aback.

Sasuke continued, "My last memory is of recuperating in Konoha. After my battle with Isshiki, Momoshiki controlled Boruto and destroyed my Rinnegan."

"In the blink of an eye, we're back in this era."

"I see... What a coincidence."

Nine-Tailed Fox was quite surprised.

"No, this is not a coincidence; someone is manipulating things behind the scenes," Sasuke shook his head in denial.

"Man-made? Who has that kind of ability?"

"You must have heard of Shinomiya Yuuki, right?"

Kurama nodded. "Naruto and he have a very close relationship."

“But in our time, this person didn’t exist,” Sasuke explained.

"He was like a strange visitor from outer space, arriving suddenly."

"History was rewritten silently."

After pondering for a moment, Nine-Tails asked, "So what do you plan to do? Get rid of him?"

"Get rid of him? Why would I do that..." Sasuke seemed somewhat surprised.

"Huh? But aren't you..."

"Isn't it good as it is now? If we could start over, we could make many choices again."

"Look how happy Naruto is now, the Fourth Hokage and Kushina Uzumaki have both been resurrected."

"He will no longer be all alone."

“That makes sense, so it seems like this is a good thing.” Nine-Tails nodded in agreement.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, we have guests."

Sasuke looked up and could vaguely see two figures approaching at lightning speed in the distance.

It was that fearsome, immortal duo—Hidan and Kakuzu!
