This Naruto is a player

However, what's strange is that the eyes above this crow's eyes are not those of a crow, but rather a pair of Sharingan eyes.

"Oops!"

Shigaraki screeched, instantly realizing he had been tricked.

However, by the time he realized it, it was too late.

He's been caught in an illusion!

Domain Expansion—Tsukuyomi!

This is a strange space. The sky is an endless blood red, as if an endless pool of blood has been inverted in the sky, full of desolation.

Where is this?

Upon regaining consciousness, Xinle Tanuki found herself tightly bound to a stake, unable to move.

Looking up, the blood-red sky chilled him to the bone, and the black sun hanging overhead astonished him even more.

"This is my Tsukuyomi space."

A familiar voice rang out, startling Shigaraki Tanuki into breaking out in a cold sweat.

That's Itachi Uchiha's voice.

He looked down and saw the figure of that person in front of him.

That shadow was exactly the same as the one in reality.

At this moment, Itachi Uchiha was holding a sword.

"Tsukuyomi Space?"

Despite his inner turmoil at the mention of this term and the strange place, Shigaraki Tanuki's composure as a ninja and his curiosity as a researcher kept his focus on the key points.

"Is this the power of your Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Itachi Uchiha nodded approvingly, "You guessed right."

"Okay, now I have a lot of questions, so please give me the answers I want quickly!"

"what?"

Faced with this situation, Xinleli's first thought was torture.

However, he had even more doubts in his mind.

How did he get to this space? What is reality like? What about time?

Many questions remained buried in my heart.

But then, Itachi Uchiha began to ask questions.

"Tell me, who is the current leader of Root?"

"Ah!"

Shigaraki Tanuki sighed coldly; his loyalty to Lord Naruto was as clear as day.

Is it possible to expect him to reveal the great and supreme Naruto from such a simple interrogation?

That's utterly delusional!

Seeing that he remained silent, Itachi Uchiha raised the sword and thrust it straight at him.

Pfft~~~

"Ahhhh!!!"

Shigaraki Tanuki let out a miserable scream!

pain!It hurts so much!

For some reason, the pain seemed to be amplified infinitely!

This feeling is absolutely bizarre!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"

Shinohara Tanuki was panting heavily, her body covered in cold sweat. When she looked up again, the Uchiha Itachi in front of her had turned into two Uchiha Itachi.

"This"

Seeing Shigaraki Tanuki act this way, the two Uchiha Itachi simultaneously lunged forward.

"Pfft~~~" ×2

"Ah~~!"

Cries of pain rang out again.

The next moment, Itachi Uchiha's numbers increased.

More knives were thrust in.

"Ah~~!!"

In the space, only the screams of Shigaraki Tanuki could be heard for a moment.

"In the world of Tsukuyomi, I control everything, including time, space, and mass."

Itachi Uchiha's voice was icy cold, "For the next seventy-two hours, I will stab your body with a knife every time."

Just now, only one second had passed. Now, there are still 71 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds left.

"72 hours?"

Shigaraki Tanuki's eyes were bulging out of their sockets from the pain.

Did only a second pass even though it was such a long time?

The Mangekyou Sharingan is truly terrifying!

Shinobu felt his mind was a little hazy, but he said fiercely, "My will is as firm as a rock, and my loyalty to Lord Naruto is unbreakable and as clear as the sun and moon! This little bit of pain is nothing!"

"Naruto-sama?"

Itachi Uchiha's eyes flickered slightly.

"Oops!"

Realizing her slip of the tongue, Shigaraki Tanuki sighed inwardly at her mistake.

In an effort to demonstrate his loyalty, he constantly referred to Naruto-sama, only to be used by the enemy!

Uchiha Itachi, you treacherous villain!

On the other side, Itachi Uchiha was deep in thought.

Naruto?

Is it the Naruto he knows?

Uchiha Itachi knew that, if he remembered correctly, shouldn't Uzumaki Naruto be the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?

How can he also serve as the leader of the Root?

Uchiha Itachi fell silent, recalling information about Naruto in his mind.

During his time in Konoha, due to limited time and being busy traveling between the village and his clan, he knew very little about Naruto Uzumaki.

My interest in Naruto only began after he joined the Akatsuki organization, due to his status as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

My continued attention to it came from the Ninja World Daily.

Among countless reports, besides the one about the "God of Ninjas" that left a deep impression on him, there was also the magazine that had to be purchased bundled with the Xiaoyao Pill—"Pretend to Be a Man."

The first character is naturally Naruto Uzumaki!

That magazine was so memorable to Itachi Uchiha, entirely because it contained news about Sasuke!

That issue of the magazine had a subheading: "Konoha Genius So Humble! Top Star in Public, Caring Student Buys His Teacher's Favorite Items in Private!" The story was about Naruto Uzumaki queuing up to buy "Romance of the Five Kingdoms" for his teacher Kakashi.

It was through that report that Itachi Uchiha learned that Naruto was a student in Team 7, taught by Kakashi.

And one of the members of Team 7 is his younger brother—Uchiha Sasuke!

Therefore, Itachi Uchiha was quite surprised, even incredulous, at this moment.

My little brother's companion, a boy who is only 12 years old, has actually become the leader of the Root?

The scene of Danzo Shimura, the former leader of Root, threatening Sasuke's life seems like it was just yesterday.

And today, Sasuke's companion has become the leader of Root?

Life is so dramatic!

but

Despite his inner turmoil, Itachi Uchiha, as a veteran spy, remained outwardly calm.

After learning this information, he became even more curious about the specific changes in Konoha and Root.

"Mr. Shigaraki Tanuki, tell me more about Root and Naruto Uzumaki!"

Itachi Uchiha continued the interrogation!

A long time passed in the blink of an eye!

Xinleli could no longer remember the extent of the torment she had endured.

Finally, after enduring countless hardships, he emerged from that strange place.

puff~

As soon as it came out, Xinle Tanuki collapsed to the ground, its body going limp from near mental breakdown.

"Hey! Tanuki, you rascal!"

Seeing this, Aburame Ryoma quickly came over and helped him up.

Even if they don't get along with each other within the organization, they can still be comrades who can rely on each other when facing an enemy.

After all, Naruto's internal philosophy of love and harmony must be fully implemented.

Kisame, on the other hand, glanced sideways at Itachi Uchiha, who was standing ramrod straight, and immediately understood what had happened.

I've seen this situation many times during the years I've worked with Mr. Itachi.
