What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?.

Chapter 373 Sasuke: Is this Itachi's amazing wisdom? (Happy May Day)
Why did Sasuke know that I was seriously ill? How did he know that?

Coke? What is that? It's in this can, is it a drink?
Wait, Wood Release Cola? How is it related to Wood Release?

Could it be that……

Is Orochimaru researching Wood Release? Or...

Danzo Shimura! ?
At this moment, Uchiha Itachi used his brain, which was set to the highest value by Kishimoto, to think a lot, and even thought of the possibility that Shimura Danzo secretly contacted Uchiha Sasuke and then gave Uchiha Sasuke something called Wood Release Cola.

As for Wood Release, the person who has done the most in-depth research in the entire ninja world is Danzo Shimura, and this was discovered by Uchiha Itachi through investigation after he defected from Konoha. He also knew that Danzo Shimura had been studying the cells of the First Hokage, Hashirama, many years ago, trying to obtain the First Hokage's invincible power that ended the Warring States Period.

Orochimaru was also involved in this regard, so it is completely reasonable for Sasuke to have contact with Danzo Shimura.

But can that old dog Shimura Danzo be trusted? Can we drink whatever he offers?
Who knows what side effects this kind of thing will have. There may even be a backup plan left by that old dog. After drinking it, a special curse mark will be left on you, which can be activated when needed to control Sasuke!
The more he thought about it, the heavier Uchiha Itachi's mood became, and the more he felt that his idea was correct, because this was something that old dog Danzo Shimura would do.

Following this line of thought, it is normal for Sasuke to know about his serious illness, because with the ability of the Root organization, it is not difficult to find out the information about his serious illness, and Danzo Shimura can use this information to gain Sasuke's trust.

Uchiha Itachi knew very well what a simple young man his brother Sasuke was. Although he looked cold and aloof, he was actually very easily fooled. If he met that old dog Shimura Danzo, it would be natural for him to be fooled without knowing the truth about the genocide.

"Damn you Shimura Danzo, how dare you do such a thing!!!"

Uchiha Itachi's heart was filled with rage, so much so that his expression became even colder and more oppressive.

However, while being angry, Uchiha Itachi also understood that it was normal for the old dog Danzo Shimura to do this.

Although he had an agreement with Danzo Shimura in the past, he would use his own existence to intimidate Danzo Shimura and prevent him from attacking his stupid Ododo.

However, when the brothers were about to have a decisive battle, as long as Danzo Shimura knew that he was terminally ill, he would be able to guess that he would let Sasuke win in this decisive battle. Danzo Shimura could then take the opportunity to contact Sasuke and let Sasuke accept his kindness, thus achieving the effect of killing two birds with one stone.

Such calculations are extremely vicious and cunning, and are completely in line with Shimura Danzo's style. As long as the conditions are met, Shimura Danzo will definitely do so. After all, the benefits are so huge that it is completely in line with Shimura Danzo's style of forgetting the greater good for the sake of small profits.

What made Uchiha Itachi feel the most desperate and painful was that at this point, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. Even if he guessed everything, he could not tell the truth. Even if he told it, Sasuke would not believe it.

He believed that all this was within Danzo Shimura's plan.

"So, in the end, I was controlled by that guy from the beginning to the end? Shisui, in the end, I was just like you, being toyed with by him the whole time..."

When he thought of this, the emotions of pain and despair became even more intense, and even caused Itachi Uchiha's seriously ill body to react. A mouthful of blood gushed out, causing him to cover his mouth and start coughing rapidly.

On the other side, Sasuke saw Uchiha Itachi suddenly coughing rapidly and looking very agitated. His mind was full of question marks and he almost couldn't help but make a black question mark face.

He just drank Coke, why did he react so violently? Did he think there was something wrong with the Coke?

That’s right, calling it Wood Release Cola will definitely make people think too much after hearing it.

Sasuke also thought a lot, but he didn't drink Wood Release Coke like others, dreaming of awakening Wood Release. The effect of these colas was simply to enhance his mental strength. If he drank it before a battle, it could improve chakra and eye power recovery. When using the Mangekyō, it could also ensure the eye power consumption of the Mangekyō so that he would not go blind after using it.

It can be said that this Coke has the effect of giving himself a BUFF before the battle, and during the battle, if his pupil power is consumed to a certain extent, he will continue to drink it, or even take out something to eat.

After all, the Fat House Meal is really useful for Uchiha. Although eating too much will make him gain weight like Uchiha Madara now, Sasuke is still young, and even if he gains weight, it will be easy for him to lose weight.

Well, yes, Uchiha Madara has indeed gained weight. Although he is not very fat yet, but according to the White Zetsu, his weight has unknowingly exceeded 150 catties and is heading towards the 160 catties mark.

Gaining so much weight at such an age would be too much for an average old man's cardiovascular system to handle, but as a descendant of the Otsutsuki, his natural number of cells exceeds that of humans on Earth. What's more, the fat house diet is indeed very nutritious, making Uchiha Madara healthier and healthier. It is estimated that even after becoming a fat house weighing 200 kilograms, he can still be full of energy and vigor.

Of course, Sasuke didn't know this. Now that he had opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, he knew that he was at risk of blindness, so he carried a lot of fat otaku meals with him, especially Coke, which was a must-have for him. He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't drink three bottles a day.

There is no other way. Not only can Coke replenish the consumption of Kaleidoscope, but it also tastes good and can really make you happy after drinking it.

So, now Sasuke just felt that Uchiha Itachi's reaction was very strange.

At this time, Uchiha Itachi stopped coughing. He could clearly feel the blood in his mouth and throat, and the wet feeling in his hands also directly indicated that it was coughed up blood.

Uchiha Itachi knew all these things without even seeing them, because he had experienced similar situations many times.

I had obviously taken the medicine today, so there shouldn't have been any physical reaction so quickly. However, due to the drastic emotional ups and downs, my seriously ill body reacted. This was completely beyond my plan.

So, can the plan to seal Orochimaru by fighting with Sasuke and forcing Sasuke to keep exerting more strength and eventually bringing out Orochimaru who is living in Sasuke's body and seal him still succeed?

Wait, where's the curse seal on Sasuke's shoulder?
At this moment, Uchiha Itachi discovered something unexpected, that is, the curse seal that should have been on Sasuke's exposed right shoulder and neck was gone.

Although Uchiha Itachi's vision is equivalent to that of a thousand-degree myopia due to excessive use of the Mangekyō and he cannot see the situation clearly, he can still see chakra after activating the Sharingan, and can also see the situation clearly through the movement of chakra.

And in Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan vision, the Heaven's Curse Seal that was supposed to exist on Sasuke and represent Orochimaru was no longer visible at all.

This made Uchiha Itachi feel difficult to understand and he didn't understand what was going on. You know, not long ago, according to the information given by 'Uchiha Madara', the Heaven's Curse Seal was on Sasuke, and even the Heaven's Curse Seal contained a fragment of Orochimaru's soul. The information that it could be activated and take over Sasuke's body when Sasuke was weak was also provided by 'Uchiha Madara'.

Although that guy is mysterious and scary, the information he provided is basically true, so what happened during this period? Why did the Heavenly Curse Seal suddenly disappear?

For a moment, Uchiha Itachi was very confused.

Poor Uchiha Itachi had no idea what happened in the ninja world during this period. After Deidara's death, Uchiha Madara came to him and said that Sasuke knew about him and would come to find him. During this period, he had been gathering his strength to prepare for the final battle with Sasuke and knew nothing about the news from the outside world. Therefore, he naturally didn't know that the Snake Team had been missing for a while, and he didn't know that Shimura Danzo, who he was full of fear and thought was cunning and still calculating against them, had been defeated.

When the information is completely outdated, no matter how smart Uchiha Itachi is, what he can think of are all pure products of his imagination, and are completely a bunch of fantasies in terms of reality.

Now, knowing that he has not much time left and will definitely die today, Uchiha Itachi decides to try his best. He wants to let Sasuke know some truth. At least, he wants Sasuke to know that Shimura Danzo cannot be trusted!
Otherwise, even if the last resort was used to change Sasuke's mind through Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, it would be useless. After all, Danzo Shimura also had a Mangekyō Sharingan of Shisui!

Once it comes to that point, Sasuke's only fate will be to be completely controlled by Danzo Shimura!
The situation here is actually different from the "original". In the "original" story, before Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke fought, he met with Naruto. During the communication, Uchiha Itachi recognized Naruto's feelings and awareness for Sasuke, so he put Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan into Naruto's body through a crow, and left a spell, which would be activated automatically when Naruto saw his Mangekyō Sharingan.

This was Uchiha Itachi's calculated action against the blackened Obito. He knew that the blackened Obito would definitely find a way to control Sasuke and transplant his Mangekyō Sharingan to Sasuke, so that Sasuke could obtain the Eternal Mangekyō and become the strongest combat force under the blackened Obito.

So, Shisui's Mangekyō was left behind. Once it sensed the power of his Mangekyō Sharingan, it would automatically activate Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, thereby changing Sasuke's mind and making Sasuke gain the absolute idea of ​​'protecting Konoha'.

Of course, in the 'original work', this final back-up plan was not used on Sasuke, but on Uchiha Itachi himself. At that time, he was under control when he was reincarnated by Kabuto Orochi, but he gained his freedom with the help of this back-up plan and later got rid of Kabuto Orochi.

In this changed world, because Naruto spent a lot of time traveling through the main world and stayed in Konoha after returning, Uchiha Itachi had no chance to contact Naruto at all.

So, Uchiha Itachi still controls Shisui's Mangekyō.

Now, having discovered a development that was beyond his expectations and a worse one at that, Uchiha Itachi was ready to overturn the original plan and directly tell Sasuke some of the truth.

If the negotiations don't go smoothly, Uchiha Itachi will have to use Shisui's Mangekyō in advance to make Sasuke the person who protects Konoha, and the thing that is very likely to exist in Sasuke's body, left by Shimura Danzo, must be handled manually as much as possible.

Just like that, Uchiha Itachi thought a lot and made a decision.

Although it seemed like he thought a lot, in fact it only took a few seconds, which fully demonstrated how useful his brain is.

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi stared at Sasuke and said in a deep voice: "Sasuke, Shimura Danzo's words cannot be trusted. Everything he said and everything he gave you have a price tag in fate. The more you get from him, the more unbearable the price you will have to pay in the end."

After these words were spoken, Sasuke was silent for a moment, then tilted his head slightly and stared at Uchiha Itachi in confusion.

Although he didn't say anything, his expression said it all.

"What the hell are you talking about? What Shimura Danzo? Why are you suddenly talking about that old Deng? What did I get from that old Deng?"

The above is what Sasuke conveyed.

Such a reaction made Uchiha Itachi slightly stunned, and then his mind started thinking quickly again.

What's wrong with Sasuke? Didn't he get Wood Release Cola from Shimura Danzo?
How can it be?

Could it be that he got it from Uchiha Madara?

Yes, Uchiha Madara also knows Wood Release, but I used to think that this Wood Release was copied from the First Hokage through the Sharingan, but now it seems that is not the case!

So, Uchiha Itachi stared at Sasuke and asked: "Sasuke, have you seen Uchiha Madara? A mysterious guy wearing a mask."

Sasuke: "..."

The expression is quite subtle.

Uchiha Madara?

Of course he knew.

In another parallel world, Uchiha Madara is still alive and well, and is carrying out the Moon Eye Project. However, he has been addicted to illusion games recently and plays with the Shodaime every day. I guess he has almost forgotten about the Moon Eye Project.

As for this world, Uchiha Madara is already dead. As for the masked man, I know that too. Uncle Qi told me that he was actually Uchiha Obito, who was fooled by this world's Uchiha Madara.

So, why did Itachi ask me this? What on earth was he thinking?
Thinking of this, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but recall Uchiha Kei's evaluation of Uchiha Itachi.

"Uchiha Itachi is a very smart guy, but his intelligence is not used in the right place. He was trained in the wrong way since he was a child, and his thinking has gone to extremes."

"Your father, Uchiha Fugaku, was also a genius. He made a child who had not yet graduated from kindergarten think about the meaning of life, and even took him to the battlefield to see corpses. As a result, your brother became depressed, and then he came up with the answer that life has no meaning."

"Later, he was exposed to all kinds of dark and extreme thoughts that were not suitable for his age, so he became more and more extreme. He was obviously a very smart guy, but in the end he became a seemingly calm lunatic, and then he used his amazing wisdom to carry out the Uchiha clan extermination."

"I can only say that he does have a lot of ideas, but he always likes to think too much and come up with amazing ideas, so it's best not to think about it."

"Why do you say it's amazing wisdom? Tsk tsk, Sasuke, let's not talk about whether it's wise or not, just tell me whether it's amazing or not."

So, is the current situation what Uncle Qi complained about, that is, thinking too much and thinking in the wrong way? Is it the use of amazing wisdom?

When he thought of this, Sasuke felt even more confused.

For a moment, the originally solemn atmosphere of the brotherly confrontation became quite strange.
