After all, the number of death certificates issued within the clan during those years was higher than usual, especially since one of them was someone he knew very well, Uchiha Izumi.

The reason why Itachi Uchiha didn't kill them all back then wasn't because he was kind-hearted, but because those people had essentially already broken away from Konoha.

Since they are no longer members of Konoha and the Konoha leadership has not made any statement, there is no need to raise the sword again.

Ignore these people, and consider yourself an Uchiha, not the Uchiha clan of Konoha, and preserve a little bit of your last bloodline.

Looking back now, that act of kindness and leniency back then has caused me a lot of trouble.

Uchiha Itachi looked at the newcomer again.

Because the mask obscured his vision and concealed his tone of voice, he couldn't see what the other person's expression was like at that moment.

If the other party is one of those who escaped the net back then, it means that those who escaped the net have all defected to Yu Yi Xuan Yue.

Sasuke is there now.

No wonder.

The changes in Konoha are so drastic.

Uchiha Itachi's eyelids drooped.

Things have taken the way they least wanted to happen.

"Do you regret not wiping out all the escapees back then?" Hagoromo Gengetsu asked with a hint of curiosity, noticing the change in Itachi Uchiha's expression.

"A bunch of deserters, they no longer measure up to my magnanimity," Itachi Uchiha said indifferently, taking off his straw hat.

"But you, right now, have that right."

Uchiha Itachi raised his eyes, and his three-tomoe Sharingan instantly evolved into the Mangekyou Sharingan with a spin. He coldly looked at Hagoromo Gengetsu and said...

"I'll take the Mangekyou Sharingan from you!"

Regardless of whether it changes Sasuke's will later, or for the sake of Konoha.

The same "Kotoamatsukami" eye technique must not fall into the hands of the person in front of me, or rather, in the hands of Yu Yi Xuan Yue.

Itachi Uchiha had already made plans to retrieve Shisui's other eye and then interrogate him for information.

It is no coincidence.

Seeing that Itachi Uchiha had come to him of his own accord, Hagoromo Gengetsu also began to plan to collect all of Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan.

“Sinners of the Uchiha clan, it is time to repent for your crimes.”

Chapter 142 A Feast of Illusions

Quack quack quack~~~

The battle officially began amidst the unpleasant cawing of the crows perched on Itachi's shoulder.

With a flourish of her hands, Yu Yi Xuan Yue hurled shuriken between her fingers, which she launched with the aid of her Mangekyou Sharingan. The shuriken collided in mid-air before raining down on Uchiha Itachi from all directions at bizarre and unpredictable angles.

At the same time, the same movement was also made by Itachi Uchiha's hands.

Dangdangdang

Numerous shurikens collided continuously in mid-air.

Sparks flew everywhere, and the clanging of metal echoed continuously.

In a very short time, the ground around them was covered with shurikens.

Despite being the parties involved, Yu Yi Xuan Yue and Uchiha Itachi were not even scratched.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Two sharp whooshing sounds rang out.

The ninjas, including Yu Yi Xuan Yue and Uchiha, moved swiftly and charged towards each other without hesitation.

Supported by their powerful pupils, the two moved with perfect precision, each strike aimed directly at the opponent's vital points beyond their reach.

To Yu Yi Xuan Yue's surprise, Uchiha Itachi, whom she thought was sickly, was actually quite good at taijutsu in addition to his proficiency in genjutsu and ninjutsu.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue had long forgotten that in the manga, Itachi Uchiha in his Edo Tensei state could fight Naruto in his Nine-Tails Chakra Mode to a standstill in terms of taijutsu.

The opponent's body is not yet in the extremely bad condition it was in during the final battle with Sasuke.

Without any intention to test the waters, Itachi Uchiha engaged in close combat at maximum intensity. Not only was he not at a disadvantage, but after figuring out that he only had one Mangekyou Sharingan, he deliberately changed his attack direction to his left.

The left eye of this clone is an ordinary eye, while the right eye, the Mangekyou Sharingan, can also protect the left side, but it is a step slower in a true duel between masters of ocular jutsu.

Thus, Itachi Uchiha seized a fleeting opportunity and, taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, unleashed a powerful whip kick that swept forward.

With a "bang," Yu Yi Xuan Yue only had time to block the attack before her feet slipped on the ground, and she was sent flying backward.

Uchiha Itachi gave chase.

"Chidori!"

Yu Yi Xuan Yue, who was retreating, calmly extended her right palm, and fierce lightning instantly enveloped her entire hand.

Uchiha Itachi, who rushed up to him, remained expressionless.

Although somewhat surprised, having already experienced this ninjutsu before, he accelerated and, just as the Thousand Birds attacked, nimbly spun around, dodging the Thousand Birds perfectly, and was about to rush into Yu Yi Xuan Yue's arms.

Yu Yixuanyue's Thousand Birds transformed into a laser-like horizontal slash.

In an instant, Itachi Uchiha was split in two.

"The Thousand Birds' shape changes?"

Itachi Uchiha calmly uttered these words.

The next second, the body that had split in two transformed into dozens of crows, cawing loudly as they scattered in all directions.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue was about to make a move.

Pfft!

A powerful hand suddenly pierced through his chest from behind.

Blood splattered everywhere in an instant.

Uchiha Itachi appeared behind Hagoromo Gengetsu without anyone noticing, piercing through Gengetsu's heart before he could react. His Mangekyou Sharingan gazed at the white vortex mask so close to him, and he said calmly:

"I'm very curious about who you really are."

Feathered Robe and Mysterious Moon?

They don't seem quite alike in terms of perception.

Other Uchiha members?

Even if someone possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, but it's not their own eye, being able to use it to the same extent as the original owner is something that ordinary people cannot do.

Itachi Uchiha was eager to know who the person in front of him was.

Upon hearing this, blood rushed into her mouth, and without the strength to say anything more, Yu Yi Xuan Yue slowly extended her left hand. Under Uchiha Itachi's gaze, she put her index and middle fingers together, suddenly hooked them, and pointed behind Uchiha Itachi, signaling him to take a look.

Itachi, realizing that the person in front of him was powerless to resist, turned his head to look.

Pfft!

A long, slender hand carrying condensed lightning pierced through his heart from behind.

Another figure in feathered robes appeared behind him, watching him with indifferent eyes.

"Illusion?"

As the "Feathered Robe Crescent Moon" he had pierced vanished like bubbles, Itachi Uchiha, coughing up blood, remained expressionless.

Yu Yi Xuan Yue looked at him: "If you want to know who I am, you'll have to show me your true abilities. Sinner of the Uchiha."

"I understand." Itachi Uchiha slowly closed his eyes.

next moment.

Both Itachi Uchiha and Hagoromo Gengetsu returned to their original positions in the blink of an eye.

To be precise, it's not about going back to where you started.

Instead, neither of them moved at all from beginning to end.

At that moment, the cold wind howled away.

There were no shuriken stuck in the ground, and there wasn't even a wrinkle on the hem of his clothes. Not to mention, Yu Yi Xuan Yue, whose chest was pierced, and Uchiha Itachi exchanged a silent glance.

The previous shuriken battles, hand-to-hand combat duels, crows, chidori, and so on, all unfolded within illusions.

This is the Uchiha.

The enemy that everyone in the ninja world least wants to face, according to a poll.

Unlike facing other ninjas, when facing Uchiha ninjas, there's a high chance you won't even know how you died.

This was also the first time that Yu Yi Xuan Yue had experienced such a high level of illusionary combat.

It has to be said that this silent duel is quite interesting.

Fortunately, after the Mangekyou Sharingan was installed in the clone's eye socket, he specifically learned about the application of the Sharingan from the Uchiha clan in order to better understand it.

Otherwise, in the very first match today, my clone would most likely have been at a disadvantage.

As for the claim that Sasuke's three-tomoe Sharingan could engage in genjutsu battles with Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan and even pull off some fancy maneuvers...

It's safe to say that when Itachi Uchiha let go, it was absolutely to the point of causing a massive flood.

Even Hagoromo Gengetsu himself preferred to face the straight Mangekyou Sharingan rather than the curved Mangekyou Sharingan.

In his eyes, powerful illusion-type eye techniques like Kotoamatsukami, which are completely undetectable once one is affected and one never even thinks of breaking the illusion, are more threatening than Amaterasu or Susanoo.

Quack quack quack~~~

The crow on Itachi's shoulder cawed again, sounding unpleasant.

However, unlike before, under Itachi Uchiha's instructions, the crow carrying another Shisui Mangekyou Sharingan on its shoulder cawed and then turned into white smoke with a "bang," returning to its original dwelling.

The person before me was unlike any enemy I had encountered before.

Even Itachi Uchiha himself dared not be careless in the battle.
