In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 185 Uncle Sasuke and the Filial Son Confess Their Hearts

"This is..." Kakashi exclaimed in shock, recognizing Sasuke as well. His face was filled with disbelief.

Recalling Chiya's words, that the Third Hokage and Danzo were the culprits behind the Uchiha clan's extermination, could this person really be the future Sasuke?

He traveled from the future specifically to see his older brother, Itachi.

"Kakashi, have those two already left?" Namiashi Raido and Yamashiro Aoba opened their eyes.

Kakashi nodded slowly.

Just then, Might Guy arrived to provide backup. His eyes widened as he looked around. "Where are the enemies?"

"They've already gone far." With a sigh, "Things are getting more and more complicated now."

On the other side, not long after leaving Konoha Village, Itachi stopped and landed on the ground. "Kisame, wait for me up ahead."

"What's wrong?" Kisame asked, standing on the tree trunk and turning around.

"Someone's chasing us. You go first, I'll handle the rest." Itachi turned back to the direction he came from, his back to Kisame.

"That's quite strange, you actually took the initiative to participate in the battle today." Kisame curled his lips, but he didn't delve into it. He continued forward and disappeared in a few leaps.

Soon, Uncle Sasuke caught up.

"Sasuke?" A gentle voice sounded, and Itachi's cold expression melted away, revealing a warm smile.

At this moment, in order to make his brother recognize him, Sasuke had already activated the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan in his right eye, and the Rinnegan in his left eye was also revealed.

"Yes, it's me, brother." Uncle Sasuke trembled, his eyes involuntarily welling up with tears. "These past years, brother, you must have had a very hard time all by yourself."

Itachi shook his head, the coldness on his body gone. He approached Sasuke, placed his right hand on his shoulder, and looked closely at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, his brows full of smiles. "It seems you've really grown up."

"Brother, it's me."

Before Sasuke could finish speaking, Itachi interrupted him with a smile, "You don't need to say anything, I understand."

"But brother, you'll die." Uncle Sasuke choked on his words, finally managing to squeeze them out after a long while.

Even though he knew the person in front of him wasn't his real brother, he still couldn't help wanting to change something.

"Since the future is already predetermined, why force anything? I'm already very happy to see you all grown up." Itachi's face showed a relieved and gratified smile.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Sasuke could no longer hold back his tears. Still unwilling to give up, he took out a photo of Sarada from his pocket. "This is my daughter, your niece Sarada. She is my daughter with Sakura. She is almost thirteen years old. She is very talented and has already awakened the Sharingan."

"That's great."

Itachi took the photo and was momentarily stunned, unable to react for a long time.

Then, Sasuke's voice rang in her ears again, "I hope you can watch Sarada being born and growing up. I think the Sasuke of this world, after learning the truth, will feel the same way I do."

"Go back, Sasuke. I am a heinous criminal, and fate cannot be changed. Don't make me hate you." Itachi didn't understand what Sasuke meant, only thinking that he was talking about the real world and the future world, not a parallel world. Not wanting to change history, he returned the photo.

He took a few steps back to his original spot, his expression turning cold once more.

Silence fell, and at that moment, Itachi could feel the wavering in his heart.

Although he also really wanted to see his little niece born and then watch her grow up.

But at the same time, he also knew that he was a heinous criminal.

After his clan was wiped out, as he grew older and gained more experience, and as he often heard Chiya reveal the darkness within Konoha's upper echelons, he gradually realized that he was wrong.

Chiya wiped out the Sarutobi and Shimura clans in order to protect Izumi.

For the sake of Konoha and his younger brother, he annihilated the Uchiha clan, killed his parents, and murdered many innocent clansmen.

The two chose two completely different paths.

The results were also different.

He has no right to blame Qianye, nor can he forgive himself for the crimes he committed in the past.

What he had to do was to do his last bit of help for his younger brother, and then go to hell to repent for his sins.

Seeing the determination in Itachi's eyes, the middle-aged Sasuke couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It seems that no matter what, I can't dissuade you."

"Take care." Itachi nodded slightly, took one last deep look at Uncle Sasuke, and then turned and left in a flash.

Only a bewildered middle-aged man, Sasuke, was left behind.

He gave a wry smile, turned, and headed towards Konoha to reunite with Boruto. He was already happy to see his brother again; more important than dwelling on the past was protecting Naruto, the hero of this world.

No sooner had Uncle Sasuke left than Chiya and Yekura emerged from the shadows.

"I never imagined that these two brothers, who love and hate each other so much, would have this side to them," Ye Cang exclaimed.

Qianye said, "Let's leave aside this older version of Erzhuzi for now, but Itachi showed no mercy when he wielded his sword against his own people and parents. If he could be forgiven with just a few words of repentance, then the lives of his parents and his people would be utterly worthless."

"Although most of the Uchiha are mentally unstable, anyone can kill them except for Itachi Uchiha, who is the son of the Uchiha clan and the young head of the Uchiha clan, and who enjoys the resources of the Uchiha clan as he grows up."

Ye Cang nodded, neither confirming nor denying, skipping over the previous topic, "So what are you going to do next? That old man Sasuke just now possesses both the Mangekyou Sharingan and the Rinnegan."

Qianye smiled and said, "Let this uncle Erzhuzi go. When the time comes, he will return to his own time and space. All we need to do is wait patiently."

Waiting for that bastard Urashiki Otsutsuki to come back and deliver his head to the enemy.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Because Kakashi recognized Sasuke, he informed Jiraiya about it. Ultimately, without Naruto's knowledge, Sasuke and Boruto, as traveling magicians, set off with Naruto and Jiraiya.

And then, Urashiki finally arrived.

"Is this the enemy you were talking about besides Akatsuki?" Jiraiya looked at the pitch-black void that suddenly opened up in the sky. A man in white robes with pure white pupils, holding a fishing rod that emitted a faint red glow, and a fish basket of the same color hanging at his waist, walked out of the spatial passage.

"Yes, that's him. His name is Urashiki, and his target is the Nine-Tails inside Naruto." Sasuke drew his sword.

As Jiraiya and Sasuke sized up Urashiki, the latter also turned his gaze toward him.

Looking at Jiraiya and the other three standing on the ground, Urashiki said in a flippant tone, "Yo, fox, I didn't expect you guys to be out of Konoha. I've been looking for you for ages. But it's alright, I've encountered an unexpected surprise today. Those two lowly creatures have been sneaking around following this fox all this way. Come out."
