Naruto: Sasuke Uchiha Returns from Soul Society

But he ultimately underestimated his opponent.

They also overestimated themselves.

Sasuke flashed and appeared beside Shisui, looking down at him from above.

The bone mask on his face shattered and dissipated, revealing his indifferent face once more.

"Now, do you still think you can stop me?"

Sasuke crouched down, his line of sight level with Shisui's.

"you......"

Shisui looked at him, his voice weak and hoarse, "Are you really going to launch a coup? That would destroy Konoha..."

"Destroyed?"

Sasuke's lips curled into a disdainful smile. "Shisui, your vision is still too narrow. You don't understand what true strength is."

"With my current power, the so-called coup is nothing more than a takeover with no suspense."

"There is no such thing as mutual destruction. Those so-called resistance forces are not worth mentioning in front of me."

"This village is very small to me."

"I can destroy this place completely whenever I want."

In the past, Shisui would have scoffed at these words.

But at this moment, looking at the boy bathed in moonlight, he couldn't refute it.

Just then, Fugaku Uchiha appeared instantly from the forest and landed beside the two.

He glanced at Shisui lying in a pool of blood, then at Sasuke, his expression complex.

"...Let him go."

Fugaku took a deep breath and bowed his head to Sasuke. "Shisui was also a member of the clan. Although we had different beliefs, he did it all for the good of the clan."

"Moreover, killing him now would only make those doves in the clan even more panicked, which would be detrimental to the next operation."

Sasuke turned his head to the side and let out a disdainful snort.

"Who said I was going to kill him?"

Hearing this, Fugaku secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will spare his life so that he can see with his own eyes how the Uchiha will lead Konoha."

"but......"

Sasuke crouched down and approached Shisui.

"There's no need to keep these eyes."

"What?!" Shisui and Fugaku were both shocked.

"Kotoamatsukami..."

Sasuke murmured the name and reached out his hands toward Shisui's eyes.

He had no time to be constantly on guard against someone who might stab him in the back at any moment.

Especially someone like Shisui, a fool whose mind is filled with nothing but the Will of Fire.

"Ugh..."

A shrill, muffled scream rang out.

Blood splattered.

Sasuke stood up, holding two slightly trembling eyeballs in his hands.

He casually pulled out a scroll from his pocket and sealed the two eyes inside.

Blood splattered like a poignant red flower under the moonlight.

Sasuke stood up, holding two still slightly trembling eyeballs in his hands. He casually took out a scroll from his pocket and sealed the two eyes inside.

After doing all this, Sasuke turned around and looked at the man who had been standing to the side with a complicated expression.

"how?"

Sasuke's voice was calm, without a trace of pride, "What do you think of my current strength?"

Fugaku was taken aback, not expecting the other party to ask such a question at this moment.

He took a deep breath and gave his honest evaluation.

“Very strong, no, I should say amazing.”

"Whether it's the use of pupil techniques or the use of power, it's all perfect."

"If it were you, perhaps you could really lead the Uchiha out of this dead end."

Upon hearing this assessment, Sasuke's face showed a very slight smile.

It was a very faint smile, but under the moonlight, it seemed exceptionally real.

It's like the relief of finally getting a glimmer of light in the long, dark night.

When he was a child, no matter how hard he tried to catch up with Itachi, who was known as a genius, all he ever got in return was his father's stern reprimand.

But now, he has gained his father's approval.

Even though his father was unaware of his true identity, this praise, which was years overdue, still stirred a ripple in his heart.

"......That's good."

Sasuke responded softly, his smile fading, the light in his eyes disappearing, and his usual coldness returning.

Just then.

"call out--!"

A sharp whooshing sound came from deep within the dense forest.

Fugaku's nerves tensed instantly, and he instinctively assumed a fighting stance.

Soon, a dark figure was casually tossed down from mid-air and landed at his feet.

Fugaku looked down and his pupils suddenly contracted.

It's a weasel.

Itachi had already lost consciousness by this time, and his ANBU uniform was tattered and he looked utterly disheveled.

"Itachi?!"

Fugaku was shocked and immediately crouched down, reaching out to check Itachi's breath.

"Don't worry, he's not dead yet."

A spirited female voice came from the treetops above.

Fugaku suddenly looked up.

A purple-haired woman dressed in a black, tight-fitting combat suit was seen squatting on a tree trunk, resting her chin on one hand and looking down at the crowd.

It was Yoruichi Shihouin.

"I just let him sleep for a little while."

Yoruichi nimbly leaped down from the tree, landing silently.

"This kid's skills are indeed interesting, but they're useless against me."

"..."

Fugaku's body stiffened slightly, and he was horrified.

Although the woman in front of him did not deliberately release her aura, it still made his heart pound with fear.

Another powerful individual?!

and......

Fugaku's gaze swept back and forth between Sasuke and Yoruichi.

Are they in cahoots?

Just how much power is hidden behind this mysterious Uchiha boy?

Who exactly are they?

"who are you?"

The blind man on the ground, trembling slightly, struggled to lift his head upon hearing the unfamiliar female voice.

"Is he one of that guy's accomplices...?"

A woman who could easily catch up with Danzo and subdue Itachi?

When did Konoha acquire this person?

Could it be...?

Before they could recover from their shock, Yoruichi seemed to remember something and pulled back with her hand.

"Oh, right, and this too."

With a flick of her wrist, a rope made of golden light was pulled out from the void behind her.

At the other end of the rope was a semi-transparent object emitting a faint blue light.

Yoruichi casually tossed the lump of stuff in front of Sasuke.

"Give."

Sasuke looked down.

The translucent object twisted and struggled on the ground, gradually revealing the outline of a human figure.

Although it has no physical form, that gloomy old face, that single eye, and that signature "X"-shaped scar on his chin...
