"Itachi, the Hokage wants you to come over." An Anbu wearing a cat-faced mask stood behind Itachi and said.

Hearing the voice, when he turned his eyes, Itachi didn't know when Sasuke disappeared from his sight: "Got it."

……

The Sandaime sat at his desk and said, "Itachi, I heard you weren't feeling well today, is something wrong?"

"I just have a stomachache. Thank you for your concern, Hokage." Itachi said calmly. He knew what the Third Hokage really wanted to ask, so he was not touched by the Hokage's personal "concern" for him.

The Sandaime nodded and sighed, "Well, remember to get some rest - how is the situation over at Uchiha?"

Itachi said calmly, "They have calmed down."

"Or... huh? Have you calmed down yet?"

"Yes."

It was obvious that Itachi lied, because he did not try to persuade those tribesmen again, and he didn't know what the situation was on their side. However, he had already said what he needed to say before, and there was no point in saying the same thing again.

"That's good, that's good..." The Third Hokage muttered to himself, and suddenly let out a long breath. After all, if Uchiha still insisted on making trouble, Konoha would inevitably face a very embarrassing situation.

After experiencing the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Konoha's strength is no longer as strong as it used to be. In fact, unless it is necessary, the Third Generation did not want to completely break up with the Uchiha clan.

As for letting the Uchiha clan move back and giving them enough respect and attention, the Third Generation had never even thought about it. What Konoha needed now was absolute stability, and coupled with the people's will, letting the Uchiha clan move out was undoubtedly the 'best' choice.

Of course, this so-called "best" directly ignored the feelings of the Uchiha clan. As for the final result, reality has already revealed it.

The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Sandai couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed. He then looked at Itachi and said, "Itachi, since you are not feeling well, I will grant you a few days off. Thank you for your hard work during this period."

Itachi was silent for a while after hearing this, and suddenly said: "If I can prove that the Nine-Tails Night was not done by the Uchiha in Konoha, can I let the Uchiha move back?"

The Sanda narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, took two puffs of his pipe, and then sighed: "The Kyuubi had Sharingan in his eyes that day, and this has been seen by many people. In other words - even if I believe you, do you think others will believe you?"

"..."

After returning home, Itachi went to the practice field where he usually trained.

He picked up the ninja tool next to him, and with the movement of Itachi's hands, several kunai shot out in an instant! The black afterimages collided and turned in the air, and the sound made by them was like an alternative symphony.

When the sound ended, all the kunai hit their respective bull's eyes. At the same time, warm applause rang out nearby, as if it was the perfect curtain call of a performance.

"Great!"

'Sasuke' clapped his hands. No one knew how long he had been standing there. "From the looks of it, are you planning to suppress the Uchiha again?"

Itachi didn't answer, but asked, "What do you want me to do?"

However, after hearing this, 'Sasuke's' expression suddenly became a little strange: "I hope? No no no... I think you got it wrong, this should be your hope. Hey, I just came here to remind you to do the questions well, maybe there will be a surprise."

"Do the questions?" Itachi frowned, always feeling that this person's way of speaking was a little strange.

Sasuke said in a very easy-going manner: "Of course, you don't have to do this question. You can choose to abstain, which means you can do nothing. Then let's see what happens next."

Itachi wondered, "Aren't you the one controlling this place?"

'Sasuke' shrugged and said, "No, believe it or not, this place exists because you are here. In fact, I am also looking forward to what will happen here next."

Itachi was silent for a moment: "So you are here to watch the show?"

Sasuke nodded and said, "You can say that. After all, this is a good show with the participation of many parties. Wouldn't it be a pity to miss it?"

Hearing this, Itachi subconsciously clenched his fists, but sadly, he didn't even feel like he had the right to be angry about it.

Ignoring Itachi's thoughts, Sasuke seemed to remember something and muttered to himself, "You know what? Sharingan is a good thing, but it's a pity that the person who possesses it doesn't have the strength to keep it. On the night of the genocide, everyone was celebrating the harvest. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle."

Itachi frowned, "Who is it?"

Sasuke's lips curled slightly: "It's 'fate'. After all, this outcome has never been achieved by a single person or thing alone. The general trend is rolling forward. Last time you were dragged down, so this time-"

“I’ll be the one who breaks the ice.”

"No, I suggest you pull those 'watchers' down and give them both a good slap in the face! That would be much more entertaining."

Itachi: "..."

If I remember correctly, did this person just curse himself into prison?

The main reason why Itachi made this decision was that this was not 'reality'. Although it was ridiculous, it did solve his worries.

In this case, he wanted to try and see if the Uchiha clan had any other way out in such a desperate situation!

……

"Sasuke come here! I found him!" Naruto shouted.

"Hmm? Didn't we look for that location before and there was no one there?"

Sasuke came over instantly and asked in confusion. He looked around but didn't see anyone around: "Where is he?"

Naruto's voice came from above: "Sasuke, jump up and look up!"

"above?"

Sasuke jumped up lightly and stood on the top of the bookshelf. He took a quick look and immediately found the man curled up on the top of a book on the bookshelf in the corner with his head down.

Because he didn't know what happened before and fell into an illusion, when he saw Sasuke coming, Naruto felt relieved and put the glass bottle with eyes in front of the man and said, "We don't need your eyes, don't worry, when we get out, I will ask Grandma Tsunade to help you put your eyes back on. Grandma Tsunade is the most powerful medical ninja in the ninja world!"

after awhile……

silence……

The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard.

Well, now the person has been found, but how to get him to speak becomes another problem. Naruto has tried various questions before, but the man didn't respond.

Another thing worth complaining about is that until now Sasuke has not seen this man's face clearly. He had the chance before, but unfortunately there was a large stain of blood on his face, so it was impossible for him to see it clearly in such a short time.
