Hokage: Ryo’s Path - Chapter 324

[Chapter 323 Choice]

After the Uchiha clan’s clan meeting ended, Itachi and one person left Nanga Shrine.

Itachi knew very well that Uchiha’s decision would bring irreversible consequences to Konoha, but at this time Itachi was very confused and didn’t know what to do.

Uchiha Fuyue looked at Itachi’s back and sighed, and then began to look for those clansmen who opposed the coup.

It was late at night, and Itachi was wandering alone in the village, thinking about what he was going to do next, and at this moment, Itachi noticed that there seemed to be someone behind him.

But when he turned back, there was nothing.

Itachi can be sure that what he perceives is not an illusion, there must be someone behind him, but this person is hidden in a special way.

Thinking of this, Itachi opened his kaleidoscope and looked behind him, but unfortunately still found nothing.

Obito, who was in the time and space of Shenwei, didn’t expect that he would be discovered. The two were separated by a space. He only used his mental power to perceive Itachi’s actions, and he would still be discovered by him. This made Obito more and more interested in Itachi.

After confirming again and again that no one was behind, Itachi muttered to himself, “Is it an illusion?” While saying that, he relaxed his vigilance on the surface, but was still secretly guarding against the mysterious person behind him.

Itachi pretended to be aimless and walked to the forest of death. Itachi was going to ask Ringtone for help, but he forgot that Ringtone had already gone home so late.

In the forest of death, there was no one around, and Obito was not hiding. He came out of the Kamui time space and stood behind Uchiha Itachi.

Facing the sudden appearance of Obito, Itachi seemed very calm. Without the slightest hesitation, he made a mark with one hand in the dark, and spit out a few small balls of fire at Obito.

Looking at these small fireballs, Obito said with a little surprise: “Is there a mark with one hand? It’s surprising.” After speaking, he directly entered the space of Kamui, and Itachi’s fireball passed through him.

Seeing this, Itachi frowned, opened the kaleidoscope, and looked at the eyes of the masked man. What he didn’t expect was that the kaleidoscope’s pupil technique [Yue Du] was actually ineffective for the person in front of him.

“It seems that you have already turned on the kaleidoscope. You have turned on the kaleidoscope at the age of 12. It’s interesting! It’s really interesting!” Obito sighed about Itachi’s talent.

“Who the hell are you? What’s the purpose of coming to Konoha? Why are you following me?” Itachi ignored Obito’s words and asked directly.

“The current junior is really not cute, can’t you guess my identity?”

‘Ignoring Konoha’s enchantment, strange abilities, and even ignoring the kaleidoscope’s [Homitsu], is it really Madara Uchiha’

Thinking of this Itachi’s face turning pale, he subconsciously took a few steps back and opened the distance from Obito: “You are really Madara Uchiha? But didn’t you die in the Valley of the End? How could it be!”

“Haha! The world thought I was dead at that time, but now I’m still standing here.”

“What is your purpose in coming to Konoha?”

“Purpose? Of course it’s to watch the show! Let’s see how the Uchiha clan who once betrayed me lost both sides with Konoha. By the way, let’s see if there is a chance to do something to this rotten village by the way.”

After listening to Obito’s words, Itachi’s first reaction was that this person was crazy, but then Itachi understood that with the ability shown by the person in front of him, what he said could really be done.

“Mara, do you really have such a big hatred for Uchiha?”

“I will not hate a family that betrayed me, but the person who betrayed me must die.”

“Then, if I help you solve the Uchiha clan, can you spare the village? Why don’t you take action against the village?”

At the moment of meeting “Uchiha Madara”, Itachi, who has been confused, made his decision.

“Oh? Are you willing to help me?” Obito looked at Itachi with interest.

“Well! As long as you promise me that I won’t do anything to the village, I will help you solve the Uchiha clan together.”

Itachi’s voice was very flat, without any emotional fluctuations, Obito stared at Itachi’s eyes, and finally said with a smile: “Okay! Since my lovely junior is willing to help, then I will wait and see.” The figure of Obito disappeared in place.

Itachi was stunned for a moment, and then broke into a cold sweat: “How can you still use time and space ninjutsu? It seems to be even more than Yuan-sama…”

Itachi, who made the decision, immediately ran towards the Hatake clan.

Unlike Uchiha, the Hatake family didn’t have many people, and naturally they didn’t have such strong defenses. Uchiha Itachi sneaked in easily.

But when Itachi first entered the Hatake family, he was discovered by Hatake Sakumo and Kakashi.

Hatake Sakumo was afraid of waking up his wife, so he got up cautiously, but Kakashi didn’t have so many taboos. He directly picked up the dagger at the bedside and ran into the courtyard to stop Itachi.

Itachi did not wear a mask and did not hide his identity. Kakashi recognized it as Uchiha Itachi at a glance.

“Itachi, it’s a little inappropriate to “visit” so late!” Although he recognized Itachi, Kakashi didn’t mean to let him go directly.

“Captain, I have something to do with Hokage-sama, can you tell me?”

“this late…”

Just as Kakashi was about to refuse, Hatake Sakumo’s voice rang in his ears: “Let him in!”

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then took Itachi to the living room.

“Kakashi, get out!”

Kakashi nodded, turned and left, Hatake Sakumo glanced at Itachi and asked, “Is something wrong?”

Itachi hesitated for a moment, but did not say anything about the encounter with “Uchiha Madara”, but told Hatake Sakumo that the Uchiha family was going to coup.

To Itachi’s surprise, Hatake Sakumo was not shocked at all, as if he had known it for a long time.

“Lord Hokage, did you already know?”

Hatake Sakumo nodded, and Itachi continued to ask with a wry smile, “Lord Hokage, is the village ready to attack the Uchiha clan?”

“Itachi, you’ve been in Anbu for so long, you should also know that if you betray the village, the village can’t just sit idly by.”

“Lord Hokage, I know the rules of the village. But if I’m willing to help you get rid of the Uchiha clan, can you go to the side and let Sasuke go?”

Hatake Sakumo shook his head when he heard the words, Itachi thought that Hatake Sakumo was against it, his eyes dimmed instantly, but then Hatake Sakumo’s words made Itachi happy.

“Itachi, don’t worry! Because of you and Shisui, I know that not everyone in the Uchiha clan is against Konoha, so the village decided to only target the Uchiha clan with coup intentions.”

Itachi’s eyes lit up: “Lord Hokage, are you serious?”

“Of course! Anyone who has no intention of coup d’etat will be fine this time.”

Itachi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words and then said with a firm look in his eyes: “Lord Hokage, please leave these clansmen to me!”

Itachi’s words made Hatake Sakumo stunned for a moment, then he sighed and thought: ‘It seems that everything is really as Yuan and Fuyue planned. ‘

Thinking of this, Hatake Sakumo agreed to Itachi’s request without hesitation.

After the two discussed the specific action details, Itachi left the Hatake clan.

At the same time, Uchiha Fugaku also summoned those clan members who opposed the coup in the clan meeting just now, along with children under the age of 12 in the clan.

Looking at the hundreds of Uchiha people in front of him, Uchiha Fuyue sighed, then broke an ice scalpel and called Yamanaka Ryo.

“Far, there are only these people, please!”
