The Uchiha clan, which was wiped out entirely, lacked vision.

Chapter 288 I must pave the way for Itachi

"Itachi's already gone?"

While performing surgery on the "trial warrior" sent by the ninja clan, An casually asked a question.

"Yes, we left the village this morning, and judging by the direction, it is indeed the direction of the Land of Grass."

"Silent, who was acting as an assistant, answered."

That would be wonderful.

An looked ecstatic, leaving the "hero" on the operating table unattended, and began to daydream, nodding and swaying his head.

"Konoha Village, the curtain is finally falling!"

"I can't wait to see what expression Itachi will have on his face when Konoha is destroyed by his own hands."

"Hehe————Haha————"

"Ha!" Shizune gave a stiff, forced smile. "I completely don't understand your thinking."

"If you wanted to destroy Konoha, you could have done it long ago. Why did you have to do these inexplicable things?"

"What you're saying isn't right." An glared at him and explained seriously, "How can the destruction of Konoha by my hands be the same as its destruction by Itachi?"

"I have a grudge against Konoha Village, so it is only natural for me to destroy Konoha Village. No one will feel sorry about it."

"But Itachi is different!"

"Itachi's greatest wish was to save Konoha and restore peace and tranquility to the village."

"Itachi, who had such thoughts, ended up single-handedly causing the destruction of Konoha Village. That's what makes it so comical!"

"To achieve this goal, I first repeatedly attacked him, then repeatedly wore down the village's fighting force, and destroyed the villagers' sense of belonging to the village. I went through so much trouble!"

"Not to mention, to better guide him, I personally participated in the trials, transforming him into a Wood Release ninja while simultaneously implanting the 'Curse of Binding and Transformation' into his eyes, subtly influencing him little by little."

"I've poured so much effort into this, and only today have I finally guided him onto the right path!"

"Do you think it's easy for me?"

As if echoing Ann's words, the "Trial Warrior" on the operating table, because no one was paying attention, completely exploded and turned into a pile of rotten flesh.

"Bang!"

A large cloud of flesh and entrails sprayed out in all directions like freshly popped popcorn.

However, with a wave of her hand, the falling blood was caught by the repulsive force and sprayed towards the other side of the operating table.

Blood splattered all over the ground, but An didn't even glance at it, simply waving his hand away.

"Please welcome the next one!"

As soon as the door opened, someone pushed the bed in with a "whoosh," sending the new "trial warrior" onto the "trial platform."

Over the past few days, the people in this "trial room" have been gradually brought under An's control.

Since they usually live here and don't go out, outsiders wouldn't notice anything unusual.

After the new "Trial Warrior" was placed, An casually stabbed him, then threw the Wood Release cells inside and left him there, chatting with Shizune as she went.

"I heard the Hyuga clan hasn't disbanded yet?"

"Yes, we all underestimated Hinata!" Shizune's voice carried a hint of admiration.

"That night, apart from Hinata, who had been locked in the courtyard, all the other members of the Hyuga main family were dead."

"But she's the only one left in the main family."

"She was originally a timid person, but after experiencing so many things, it seems that this young girl has been stimulated and has become bolder."

"In the absence of a leader, she resolutely stood up and announced the abolition of the main family's branch system and the 'Caged Bird' curse seal, which would never be synthesized into the Tenseigan again."

""

"To prove this, she rejected the suggestion to transplant the Byakugan of the fallen main family members into her and decided to live the rest of her life with the eyes of an ordinary person."

"Through sincere words, heartbroken weeping, and long periods of prostration, quite a few branch families were actually willing to stay."

"However, quite a few people have left."

"Hinata went to see Lord Mizuki to plead for the branch family members who wanted to leave Konoha, hoping the village would allow them to leave freely."

"Under normal circumstances, how could the village allow such a thing to happen?"

"But the current state of Konoha is not normal!"

After careful consideration, Lord Mizuki finally agreed to Hinata's request with a heavy heart.

"Hahahaha—" An was overjoyed and clapped her hands repeatedly, cheering, "What a great wingman!"

"I was worried that Konoha Village wouldn't easily disintegrate!"

"Now that we've learned from past mistakes, the number of people fleeing Konoha will only increase!"

"Ah, I must pave the way for Itachi, and wait for him to toll the final death knell for Konoha!"

Just as in response to An's words, with a "bang," the "Trial Warrior" on the operating table exploded again.

"Next up!"

Soon, new "Trial Warriors" were sent to the "Trial Platform".

An looked down and found that it was someone she knew.

"Oh, it's Nara Shikamaru!"

"Is the Nara family finally getting restless?"

Although the Hero Trials had been held for a long time, only ordinary ninja clans came; none of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans ever showed up.

The fact that none of the three families appeared together must be the Nara family's idea.

However, An didn't care about that; it didn't matter who came.

This time, all the direct descendants of the Nara family appeared in the "Trial Room." Clearly, even the usually calm Nara family is starting to get restless.

However, while other families start with members from the periphery, the Nara family is different; they sent their future clan leader in first.

Is this because they're worried about other members of their tribe becoming disloyal?

That's bold!

"Go and see if there are any members of the Akimichi or Yamanaka families outside."

Shizune went out for a walk and came back to report to the leader: "Akimichi Choji and Yamanaka Ino are also outside."

11

really!

An nodded with satisfaction and raised his hand to inject the Wood Release cells into Shikamaru's body.

"You're lucky to be chosen as an example."

After undergoing numerous surgeries, An is now highly experienced in transplanting "Uchiha An-brand Wood Release cells" and can control them with ease.

He intended to set another trap for the "Ino-Shika-Cho" trio, so he showed leniency and let Shikamaru go, allowing him to successfully become a Wood Release ninja.

However, Choji Akimichi and Ino Yamanaka didn't fare so well; one died and the other survived, leaving only Ino Yamanaka to pass the "trial."

The Nara family's secret technique is genuine Yin Release, and he also wanted to know if combining this level of Yin Release with the Yang Release of Wood Release could produce some kind of higher-level reaction.

If Shikamaru's strength increases significantly as a result, the Nara clan might send a large number of people to join the "trial"!

Unfortunately, the Nara clan was too cautious. Once they obtained Shikamaru, a successful Wood Release ninja, they refused to send another person.

The Yamanaka clan also stopped sending people, while the Akimichi family sent several more in succession.

Knowing that the pig-deer-butterfly family would bite the bait and run away, An naturally wanted to lift the hook in time and catch as many as possible.

As a result, the unfortunate Akimichi family "trial participants" failed one after another, with not a single one succeeding.

After a while, perhaps it crossed the Akimichi family's psychological bottom line, so the Akimichi family stopped sending ninjas.

An doesn't care; if something comes along, he'll use it; if not, he'll just let it go. His main philosophy is to go with the flow.
