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

Chapter 30 Itachi Uchiha's Test

"Thank you, senior." Qianye nodded.

"Don't call me 'senpai' anymore." The ANBU ninja took off his mask, revealing a face shield-like headband, and his tone became much gentler. "Since we're comrades from now on, just call me Tenzo. That's the code name the Hokage gave me."

At this point, he glanced at the Mirror Flower Water Moon at Chiya's waist. "Your sword is nice, but it's a bit too flashy. As an Anbu member, secrecy is paramount. I suggest you stick to the standard Anbu-issue ninja sword from now on."

"I understand, senpai." Chiya nodded. She thought to herself, "Is this the Wood Release ninja Yamato?"

"How many times have I told you not to call me 'senpai'?" Tenzo chuckled, sighed helplessly, patted Chiya on the shoulder, and turned to leave. "Alright, you can change your clothes here first. I'll introduce you to the other members later."

A moment later, Qianye changed his clothes, chose a smiley face mask, and put the Mirror Flower Water Moon into the system warehouse.

When he came out wearing a mask, a group of Anbu ninjas, including Kakashi, Yamato, and Itachi Uchiha, were already gathered outside the door waiting.

Because of his past battles with Kakashi during the night, he did not face the same difficulties that Itachi Uchiha experienced in the original story when he first joined the Anbu.

"Chiya, how are you? Are you adapting well?" Kakashi greeted him, taking off his dog-head mask.

"Thanks to you, everything is going smoothly." With the mask on, Chiya seemed like a different person, behaving extremely humbly in front of Kakashi.

"Oh, that's good then." Kakashi turned his head to look at the tree trunk not far away, where Itachi Uchiha was squatting on it wearing a fire fox mask. "Itachi, come here for a moment."

"Yes, Captain Kakashi." Itachi Uchiha instantly appeared in front of the two and removed his mask.

"This is Uchiha Itachi. As former classmates, you two must already know each other, so I won't go into too much detail," Kakashi said. "Chiya, only the two of you know about the top-secret mission assigned by the Hokage, so I won't interfere further. You two can discuss it yourselves."

"From now on, you just need to report to the Dark Division on time. Under normal circumstances, I won't assign you any extra tasks."

"Yes, Captain Kakashi," Chiya replied respectfully.

"Come with me." Itachi Uchiha glanced at Chiya expressionlessly, put his mask back on, and vanished in a flash.

Qianye used the Instantaneous Movement Technique to follow closely behind.

Before long, the two arrived at a high point in Konoha.

From here, you can get a great view of the entire ninja academy.

"I never expected you to get involved." Itachi Uchiha looked at Sasuke, who was attentively listening to the lecture in the classroom, and said in a deep voice, "Is it because of Izumi?"

Chiya leaned against a nearby pillar, arms crossed. "Aren't you the same? As the young master of the Uchiha clan, the eldest son of the clan head, you actually became a spy sent by the Konoha higher-ups to infiltrate the Uchiha clan. How ironic. Is it because of Sasuke?"

"I didn't expect you to even know this." Itachi Uchiha turned around, his dark eyes coldly staring at Chiya. "Chiya, you're definitely not as simple as you seem."

"Likewise." Qianye removed his mask, his expression calm.

"Before we discuss serious matters, there's something I'd like to confirm." Itachi Uchiha closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again, revealing three tomoe.

The two locked eyes, and the Sharingan was activated.

Qianye was suddenly stunned, his pupils instantly becoming empty, but the next second, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his whole body transformed into cherry blossom petals, scattering around Uchiha Itachi and gradually enveloping him.

The three tomoe in Itachi Uchiha's eyes spun rapidly as he unleashed the original manga's technique, "Mirror Heaven and Earth Reversal," which countered Kurenai Yuhi's genjutsu.

Strangely, although the illusion was broken, it did not rebound onto Qianye, who remained standing in the same spot the whole time, looking at him with a half-smile.

"That was close! As expected of the Sharingan, I was almost hit by your genjutsu. Luckily, you only have three tomoe right now. If you had activated the Mangekyou Sharingan, I would have been in big trouble."

Chiya looked terrified, but her tone was surprisingly relaxed, as if she didn't take the Kaleidoscope seriously.

He then added, "So, have you confirmed what you needed to confirm?"

"I suppose so." Itachi Uchiha gave Chiya another deep look.

Then he thought of the mysterious person who took Shisui's right eye, and his fear of Chiya grew even stronger.

He turned around, put his mask back on, and said seriously, "I will inform the Uchiha higher-ups about your promotion to Jonin and joining the Anbu. Because of Izumi, they will extend an olive branch to you on the condition that Izumi betrothed to you."

"As long as you continue to take Quan home as usual during this period, someone will come looking for you."

"At that time, you will be able to infiltrate the Uchiha clan."

"Is it that simple?" A sense of unreality suddenly arose in Qianye's heart. This Uchiha was far too easy to fool.

"Yes, it's that simple." After saying that, Uchiha Itachi's figure flashed and disappeared from Chiya's sight.

"He really is an incredibly intelligent guy. He's probably already suspecting me about Shisui's right eye being taken from him."

"Why is his emotional intelligence so low? Someone like him was actually tricked into having his clan wiped out by the Konoha F4, and he didn't even spare a single civilian who was unaware of the coup. What a pathetic guy."

Qianye murmured to himself, then his figure flashed and he disappeared from the spot.

Shortly after he left, a giant green pitcher plant emerged from the building's wall, slowly opening to reveal a strange body that was half black and half white. It was a combination of Black Zetsu and White Zetsu.

"Who is this guy? He's actually immune to Sharingan genjutsu. Pretty impressive," White Zetsu asked.

"Itachi didn't use the Mangekyou Sharingan, so the outcome of a real fight is still uncertain. But the chakra that kid unleashed when he released the genjutsu just now shouldn't be underestimated. It seems Konoha has produced another genius."

Black Zetsu answered, his voice hoarse, like leaves falling in the wind, extremely unpleasant to hear.

"So what do you plan to do? Should we inform Obito now... no, inform Madara?" White Zetsu continued to ask.

"There's no need. We can tell Madara later. A genjutsu ninja without the Sharingan won't affect our plans at all. Our most important task now is to find the person who stole Shisui's right eye."

After saying that, Black Zetsu controlled the pitcher plant, reintegrating it into the wall and disappearing as if he had never been there.

As the saying goes, "the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind," not long after Hei Bai Jue left, Qian Ye emerged from the top of the wall and muttered, "It seems that this guy also accidentally saw my Mirror Flower Water Moon somewhere, otherwise, given his ability to conceal his aura, I really wouldn't have been able to find him."
