He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 287 I Want One of Your Eyes (Third Update)

"Now let's see how you exert your strength!"

Kisame watched as the giant water sphere completely enveloped him and Li Chuan, swam around quickly in the water, and revealed a smug expression.

This giant water sphere has no offensive power and requires a large amount of chakra to take shape.

However, once fully formed, it can significantly enhance itself and weaken the enemy.

Firstly, in his shark form, his speed in the water becomes extremely fast, and even if the opponent has strong physical skills, they will find it difficult to exert their strength in the rootless water without any leverage.

Secondly, in this form, he can breathe freely underwater, while his opponent needs to hold their breath, which also greatly affects the battle.

After finally fusing with Samehada, his chakra reserves increased dramatically, his physical strength increased dramatically, his ninjutsu power increased dramatically, his sensory abilities increased dramatically, and he was even able to absorb enemy chakra by touching their bodies.

Therefore, if the enemy is only strong in physical combat, there is absolutely no way they can defeat you.

"Summoning Ninjutsu: Thousand Shark Eaters!"

Just to be on the safe side, he clapped his hands together and used a psychic technique to summon thousands of physical sharks to join him in attacking Li Chuan.

"Making such a big water balloon will definitely be spotted by the rescue ninjas from the village. Looks like we can't keep playing around like this."

Li Chuan, inside the water sphere, watched as Kisame, accompanied by thousands of sharks, charged towards him, and then instantly vanished from the spot using Phantom Teleportation.

Where are they?

The cruel-looking Kisame saw Li Chuan disappear right under his nose and immediately stopped in his tracks, using his sensory abilities to perceive what was happening.

"impossible!"

The next second, he sensed the location of Li Chuan's chakra, and then his face was filled with disbelief.

Because that spot was right behind him, less than half a meter away.

"goodbye!"

Li Chuan appeared behind Kisame, instantly opening all eight gates, and gently tapped Kisame's back with his right hand.

"boom!"

Kisame immediately felt as if he had been hit by a meteorite, and was shot out of the water sphere, crashing heavily into the muddy ground below. All his bones were shattered, and he passed out like a lump of mud.

If it weren't for Samehada within Kisame's body desperately transferring its chakra to Kisame to sustain his life, Kisame would have been sentenced to death after taking that blow.

Actually, Li Chuan deliberately held back. If he really wanted to kill Kisame, he would have released his flying sword from the start, and Kisame wouldn't even have a chance to fuse with Samehada before having his head chopped off.

Kisame fainted, and the giant water sphere bound by his chakra naturally disappeared, and the summoned sharks were also sent back.

Li Chuan also directly deactivated the Eight Gates Formation mode.

"Kisame actually lost!"

Itachi, who was watching from a distance, saw Kisame severely injured and unconscious, and his expression changed once again.

Kisame's strength is among the best in the entire Akatsuki organization, yet today he was defeated by an unknown young ninja.

The key is not the narrow victory in the back-and-forth battles, but the overwhelming strength from start to finish, which is terrifying.

"This is troublesome."

Seeing Li Chuan appear not far from him again using space-time ninjutsu, Itachi inwardly cried out in alarm.

He didn't want to hurt the Konoha ninja in front of him, but the opponent's strength was no longer something he could easily control. If he didn't use his full strength, he might end up like Kisame.

"Don't be nervous. I think we can talk first, because I know you're not really a Konoha traitor."

Seeing Itachi's three tomoe spinning rapidly, about to transform into a kaleidoscope, Li Chuan smiled and said.

Upon hearing Li Chuan's words, Itachi's pupils contracted sharply, and his Sharingan temporarily reverted to the three-tomoe form.

"Excuse me, I don't know what you're talking about. If you don't want to fight, then I'll be leaving with my companions."

Only four people in the entire Hidden Leaf Village knew his identity as a spy: the Third Hokage, Danzo, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu. Under normal circumstances, they would not tell others about their identities.

Therefore, he cannot admit his identity based on Li Chuan's words alone.

Li Chuan knew that Itachi wouldn't admit it so easily, so he directly recounted everything that had happened back then:

"The Uchiha clan massacre wasn't actually because of you; they wanted to launch a rebellion. You joined forces with a mysterious man who called himself Uchiha Madara to kill the other clan members for the sake of peace in Konoha and Sasuke's safety."

Afterwards, you made a deal with the Third Hokage to allow Sasuke to grow up safely in Konoha and rebuild and strengthen the Uchiha clan. In return, you joined the mysterious person's organization, Akatsuki, as a rogue ninja to gather intelligence for Konoha.

Am I right?

As for Itachi, well, Li Chuan doesn't dislike him, but he doesn't approve of what Itachi did back then.

Perhaps he's a selfish person. If he were in Itachi's shoes back then, he would never have compromised with the Konoha leadership.

Although the Uchiha clan would inevitably lose if they launched a rebellion, Konoha would also suffer a severe blow and eventually be swallowed up by other ninja villages.

Using the threat of rebellion as leverage, the Konoha leadership might not actually dare to take action.

Even if they fight to the death and ultimately lose, they can still escape Konoha with some elites and their families and become rogue ninja.

Afterwards, Konoha's strength was greatly diminished, and it had to face attacks from other ninja villages, so it was impossible for it to have the energy to hunt them down again.

It's better than ending up saving only Sasuke.

It can only be said that the ninja academy established by Konoha has been far too successful in brainwashing the new generation of ninjas.

Itachi, or rather the entire Uchiha clan, are people with naturally extreme personalities—either extremely good or extremely bad.

"Who exactly are you?"

When Itachi heard Li Chuan reveal the whole truth from back then, he was stunned.

If the other party had only revealed a few details, it might have been information leaked by the mysterious person who claimed to be Uchiha Madara. But the other party revealed everything, including the agreement between him and the Third Hokage.

"Me? The prince of the Land of Fire, the fourth disciple newly accepted by the Third Hokage of Konoha. You can call me Madoka. You can easily find out my identity when you go back later."

However, the truth about the Uchiha clan massacre wasn't told to me by the Third Hokage.

Li Chuan raised his hand and gave a brief self-introduction.

After a few seconds of silence, Itachi looked at Li Chuan seriously and said:

"So what do you want to do now?"

"I want to make a deal with you, a deal that will be very beneficial for both of us."

Li Chuan stopped wasting words and directly stated his purpose:

"I want one of your Mangekyou Sharingan eyes."

"Are you kidding me?"

Upon hearing Li Chuan's words, Itachi's eyes immediately transformed into kaleidoscope shapes.

Regardless of whether Li Chuan's identity is real or not, even if it were true, let alone the fact that Li Chuan is the Third Hokage's disciple and a prince of the Land of Fire, even if Li Chuan were the Third Hokage himself and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, he would never agree to such a request.
