Chapter 90: Mangekyo Sharingan
The Light Bulb Spanning a Millennium.
Does this achievement refer to Fahai?
Naruto thought it over and felt that Fahai fit the description quite well.
After all, his head was shiny and bright; calling him a light bulb wasn't an exaggeration.
Furthermore,'spanning a millennium' clearly referred to the legend of the white snake.
So, to put this achievement another way... Fahai, you don't understand love?
Naruto quickly shut his mouth.
He almost started singing it out loud.
In a sense, this song was even more of an earworm.
He glanced at Uchiha Itachi and Orochimaru.
Neither of them spoke.
Uchiha Itachi was waiting for Sasuke, stalling for time.
As for Orochimaru, it was purely because he couldn't beat Uchiha Itachi.
His Living Corpse Reincarnation was good in every way, except that it damaged the soul.
This resulted in a very fatal weakness: he was afraid of Genjutsu.
And it just so happened that Uchiha Itachi was the top Genjutsu Ninja in the Ninja World.
Their last battle had already proven that when Orochimaru faced Uchiha Itachi, he would only be instantly defeated.
Naruto was an outsider.
With nothing to do...
He decided to see what kind of card he could get from this achievement.
[Drawing card... Congratulations, host, you have obtained one item card.]
Naruto's eyes behind the mask suddenly lit up.
It was actually a gold card.
What a pleasant surprise.
As the saying goes, no one knows which will come first: tomorrow or an accident.
On this trip, he could watch a family drama—reminiscing about childhood times watching shows like 'The Temptation of Going Home' or 'Autumn in My Heart' with his mom in his past life—and trigger an achievement to get a gold card.
Double the happiness.
Naruto happily flipped the card over, and his smile gradually froze.
[item card: The Main Pot of Love.]
[Description: Permanent item card. A divine Frying Pan for fighting. Has a certain probability of reflecting Ninjutsu cast by Uchiha Itachi and Orochimaru back at the user.]
[Note: Does not include Taijutsu or pure physical attacks.]
[Note: Probability depends on the host's luck value.]
[Note: This item can only be used by The Fool. Since it is the host's Shadow Clone and has died, usage rights are transferred to the host.]
"???"
Naruto was dumbfounded.
He had never received such a ridiculous card.
What the hell is 'The Main Pot of Love'!
System, you're not right, there's something wrong with you.
It even limited the two targets it can be used against.
Naruto felt there were too many things to complain about and didn't know where to start.
He calmed down and thought about it; although it was very limited, it still had its uses.
For example, in his upcoming duel with Uchiha Itachi.
Imagine suddenly pulling out a Frying Pan in the middle of the fight.
The image was too beautiful; he didn't dare to look.
After a long silence, the two people in the field finally began to talk.
"I'm not here to stop you."
Uchiha Itachi said in a calm tone, "I'm here to kill you. You betrayed the Akatsuki Organization."
Orochimaru sneered and said, "Not sooner, not later, but exactly at this time? If you are really executing Akatsuki's orders, then where is your teammate?"
He was once a member of the Akatsuki Organization.
He knew their rules.
Although they never fought as a group, no matter the operation or mission, they always worked in two-man teams.
In other words, Uchiha Itachi appearing here alone was abnormal behavior.
"Because you are not our real target."
Uchiha Itachi remained completely unfazed, "I just happened to find you and decided to deal with you while I was at it."
"..."
Orochimaru's stomach suddenly ached with anger.
I am one of the legendary Sannin, after all. How can I sound like some random small fry coming from your mouth?
"Are you talking about the Nine-Tailed?"
Orochimaru realized and asked.
"Correct."
Uchiha Itachi did not hide it.
Among those present, both Orochimaru and The Fool already knew.
And Hiruzen Sarutobi's life was about to end.
Whether he knew or not no longer had any meaning.
"???"
Naruto was speechless.
Are you two discussing how to kill me right in front of me?
But hearing this, he did remember the plot of the original work.
After the Chunin Exams ended, Uchiha Itachi and Kisame Hoshigaki came to Konoha looking for Naruto.
Along the way, Uchiha Itachi provoked his foolish little brother.
The northern side of Konoha.
"Something's happened!"
Kakashi pulled down his headband, and his Sharingan activated.
Countless strange and unfamiliar Chakras had appeared in the village.
Sasuke, who was beside him, was also startled.
He wondered how Naruto and Sakura were doing.
Thinking of this, he burst forward with extreme speed.
Lightning flashes flickered on the surface of his body.
Kakashi quickly followed.
The two of them headed straight for the Chunin Exams arena.
"What's going on?"
Kakashi couldn't help but say, "Could Sunagakure and Otogakure have joined forces to attack our Konoha Village?"
Just then, an Anbu wearing an animal mask appeared.
It was Naruto's Shadow Clone.
"Kakashi-sama."
The Anbu quickly explained the cause and effect of the situation.
"I see."
Kakashi looked solemn, but his wealth of experience immediately told him what to do.
As the strongest hidden village, Konoha had its own set of procedures for dealing with invasions.
After evacuating the non-combatant villagers, they would concentrate all Ninja forces for a counterattack.
"Sasuke, let's go help Guy and the others."
"No, I'm going to help Naruto."
Sasuke shook his head firmly, "He's dealing with that monster; I'm worried he might be in danger."
"Very well."
Kakashi didn't say anything more.
He was also worried about Naruto.
"There is one more thing."
The Anbu standing before them said, "Please be extremely careful, both of you. We have spotted traces of the rogue Ninja Uchiha Itachi."
"What did you say?!"
Sasuke instantly forgot about rescuing Naruto. He looked agitated and asked, "Uchiha Itachi?"
Whoever is called Uchiha Itachi, I will end his life!
His hunting time had awakened.
The Anbu pointed in a direction and said, "He was last seen in that direction."
Sasuke instantly vanished from the spot.
"Sasuke?!"
Kakashi's heart tightened. He was about to give chase, but two Sand Ninja rushed at him from both sides.
He had no choice but to engage them.
The Anbu retreated and turned into smoke.
Naruto's body jolted, and he said, "Itachi, no need for nonsense."
Orochimaru found it inexplicable.
The Fool, what exactly are you here for?
But Uchiha Itachi knew this was a reminder.
Sasuke was coming.
"Indeed, no need for nonsense."
Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan emerged, his killing intent cold and sharp.
Orochimaru suddenly became flustered.
Damn it!
He was not willing to experience the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan again.
"Are you really going to kill me?!"
Orochimaru clutched his stomach and questioned, "It's one thing to kill me, but you can even lay a hand on your own flesh and blood?"
Sasuke, who had just rushed to the front of the barrier, heard these words and was completely stunned.
Huh?
My brother's flesh and blood?
And the one speaking was Orochimaru?
"Uchiha Itachi!"
Sasuke snapped out of it and roared loudly.
Well, he's certainly energetic.
Naruto glanced at him.
The Four Violet Flames Formation had been broken by him and Uchiha Itachi earlier, so he easily reached the three of them.
A strange family drama was about to unfold.
"Is what he just said true?"
Sasuke could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
That damn witch actually used my brother's body to do such a thing.
"..."
Uchiha Itachi looked at him calmly and admitted, "Yes, we have a child."
Sasuke was aghast.
Immediately, the blood in his chest surged, and his eyes suddenly began to ache.
The world seemed to turn the color of blood.
A chaotic and cold aura gushed out like a gale passing through.
Residual Chakra, trees, and stone walls all cracked, making a series of creaking sounds.
Orochimaru and Hiruzen Sarutobi felt as if doomsday had arrived.
Even Uchiha Itachi and Naruto were somewhat surprised.
Thanks to Bullet-daughter for the tip. PS: A little contest—what do you think Sasuke's Mangekyoability is?
