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

Chapter 369 When Erzhuzi Learns He Has a Stepfather

As night deepened, the area where the Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning met, though ravaged by war, remained brightly lit.

In the still night sky, two white figures met unexpectedly.

"Sharingan? Uchiha clan, the Impure World Reincarnation has been dispelled, so why can you still move? Are you Uchiha Madara?" The speaker was Kato Dan, who had used the Spirit Transformation Technique to gain temporary freedom and had not yet ascended to heaven.

The person he encountered was Uchiha Itachi.

Kato Dan lost his target because Chiya took Tsunade away.

Because Itachi Uchiha lacked sensory abilities, he was unable to find Sasuke.

The two of them were running around like headless flies.

They finally met when their chakra was about to run out.

"No, I'm not. I'm Uchiha Itachi." Itachi recognized Dan's technique and hesitated before saying, "This seems to be a Spirit Transformation Technique. Is it Kato Dan-senpai?"

Kato Dan suddenly realized, "Oh, so you're Fugaku's son. I heard about you from Choza, and I know about you, including things concerning the Uchiha clan."

"I'm so sorry. No one expected that to happen, not even Lord Danzo and the Third Hokage."

"No, it's nothing." Itachi Uchiha didn't want to dwell on the matter any longer, skipping over the previous topic. "You're looking for Lady Tsunade, aren't you?"

"Yes, it seems you were sealed away on the battlefield of the Fourth Division. I searched everywhere there but couldn't find any trace of Tsunade, not even her Spirit Transformation Technique to sense souls."

Kato nodded, a worried look on his face. "I'm very worried about her."

Like his father, another guy who got cuckolded by Chiya? It seems no one has told him about Tsunade and Chiya yet. Uchiha Itachi looked at Kato Dan with a strange pity in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Lady Tsunade is safe and sound, and the other Kage are all still alive. However, Lady Tsunade is married and has a child, and her husband has already rescued her, so..."

He didn't continue, but Kato Dan understood, tears streaming down his face as he gave a bitter smile.

"Oh, that's good then." Kato Dan wiped away his tears and forced a smile. "By the way, you seem to be looking for someone too."

"Ah, I was looking for my brother, but it seems I won't make it in time. The chakra he gave me is almost depleted." Itachi Uchiha's spirit became increasingly transparent. In the end, he still couldn't see his beloved Ottoto.

However, Kato Dan's words rekindled his hope. "Regarding this, I think I can work on it for a while. Although I don't have much chakra left, it should be enough for you to see your brother. This is the only way I can make amends to Konoha for you."

As he spoke, Kato Dan transformed into a streak of light and entered Uchiha Itachi's spirit body.

"I see." Sensing the change in the spirit, Itachi Uchiha suddenly understood.

"The art of spirit transformation allows you to sense the souls of others. I think you should be able to identify your brother from it. My time is running out, so let's set off quickly."

Kato Dan's voice echoed in Itachi's mind. The latter nodded emphatically, quickly determined the direction, and flew rapidly towards Sasuke's location.

"That is."

Madara Uchiha, who had stopped midway to communicate with Black Zetsu and had not yet rushed to Obito's battlefield, noticed the spirit of the filial son and exclaimed in surprise.

"It seems to be Itachi Uchiha, a former member of Akatsuki. He's probably using Dan Kato's Spirit Transformation Technique from Konoha. He's probably going to find his younger brother, Sasuke Uchiha. Should we stop him, Lord Madara?"

Hei Jue answered respectfully.

"My two juniors? No need. That technique can't last long. As for the other one named Sasuke, he'll come to me himself."

Madara smiled confidently, looking up at Obito's direction. "But that Obito guy is really a piece of trash. He was completely outmaneuvered by Chiyo the whole time, and even lost his other eye."

"It seems we have to change our plans this time."

Meanwhile, Sasuke was searching the battlefield for Naruto and the Konoha ninja.

He intends to continue his revenge.

Unfortunately, those without sensory abilities searched for a long time but couldn't find a single person. All that remained in the various places were the White Zetsu.

Until one day on a battlefield, he encountered Red Bean, who had been released by Kabuto.

"Uchiha Sasuke, what are you doing here?" Anko exclaimed in surprise.

"Ah, it's Konoha's Anko. Why am I here? Of course, it's to find you." With his Sharingan activated, Sasuke drew his Kusanagi sword and slowly approached.

"This is the Mangekyou Sharingan." Anko was suddenly startled and quickly looked away, subconsciously looking for an opportunity to retreat. Unfortunately, the power of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan was far beyond her ability to cope with.

They were bound by a mere accidental glance.

However, she wouldn't just sit and wait to die. She bit her tongue and used the intense pain to forcefully break free from the illusion.

But he was quickly captured by Sasuke using Susanoo.

Erzhuzi brandished his butcher's knife, aiming it at Anko who was standing inches away. "Tell me, where have all the ninjas gone?"

"Don't even think about it. Don't say I don't know. Even if I did know, I would never betray my comrades. Go ahead and kill me if you dare."

Hongdou gritted her teeth and said.

"I see." Erzhuzi looked at the curse mark on Hongdou's neck and said indifferently, "Then you might as well die along with Orochimaru inside you."

Just as Erzhuzi was about to strike with his sword, Daixiaozi finally arrived, and with the help of Kato Dan, his entire spirit entered Erzhuzi's spiritual space.

Kato Dan also disappeared due to exhaustion of chakra.

"You are..." Erzhuzi's movements came to an abrupt halt.

"Ah, Sasuke, it's been a long time." The filial son smiled.

Just like in the original story, the two brothers had a conversation.

The filial son finally told everything about himself to this "foolish Ototo".

When the filial son learned that his mother was still alive, he was overjoyed, as excited as a child who hadn't been disciplined.

But when she learned that Qianye had actually become her stepfather and had a child, all that remained was a deep sense of humiliation.

"That bastard." Erzhuzi gritted his teeth in anger, and glared at Anko with his Sharingan again, who immediately fell asleep.

"Oh, I found it, I found it!"

Meanwhile, Jugo and Suigetsu, who were searching everywhere for Sasuke, finally arrived with the help of Kotori.

"What are you doing here?" Erzhuzi looked at Shuiyue and Chongwu with some surprise.

"Of course I'm here to give you a big gift." Shuiyue chuckled and handed over the scroll that could undo the Corpse Demon Seal.

Erzhuzi took it and looked at it, revealing the same surprised expression as Shuiyue had shown before, "This is..."

Shuiyue grinned mischievously, "How about it? My big gift is pretty good, isn't it? Originally, Qianye asked us to find it, but we didn't want to be manipulated by that guy, so we didn't give it to him and chose to come to you instead."
