Traveling through Nagato, from conquering Konan to dominating the ninja world

It's not about seeking justice for Sasuke's childhood, but about seeking justice for the beautiful expectations he has in his heart for his parents and brotherly love!

"Itachi, you just said outside that you are Fugaku's only son. Isn't that inappropriate..." As Tiandao spoke softly, his gaze turned to the tightly closed door!

Itachi's pupils suddenly widened: "You, what do you want to do...!!!"

"Boom!"

The lightning illuminated the dim room, and also illuminated the sinister smile on Pain Tiandao's lips.

"Itachi, do you want me to help look after your unborn brother... Sasuke?"

Chapter 26 But Itachi...

The smile and words of the man in front of him made Itachi feel chilled to the bone!

He asked in horror: "You, what are you going to do to my mother...!!"

"What to do...isn't that obvious?" Tiandao took a step and walked towards the bedroom door in the dark living room.

Itachi screamed in terror: "Mom, run away!!!!!"

"Eh!?" In the bedroom, Uchiha Mikoto, who was resting peacefully with the sound of rain outside the window helping her fall asleep, was awakened by Itachi's shouting.

Itachi...is he in danger?

"Knock, knock, knock!" She didn't have time to think. She picked up the flashlight on the tatami and rushed to the door.

With the help of the light...she saw a strange man standing in the living room, and her beloved son Itachi, standing behind the man helplessly!

Mikoto, who has a gentle personality, showed her motherly courage: "Who are you?! Why did you break into my house!!!"

Itachi screamed, "Mom, run away... He's going to do something bad to Sasuke!!!"

"What!?" Mikoto's face suddenly changed, staring at the man in front of her: "You, you...you know the child in my belly, are you Fugaku's enemy?"

Payne said: "Who knows~."

Cold sweat ran down Mikoto's face.

Calm down… The fact that he was able to break through Konoha and the clan's heavy guards and break into this house proves that he is unfathomable. There is no way I can escape.

Besides…even if I escape, what about Itachi?

For the safety of her child, Mikoto forced herself to calm down and tried to negotiate: "Whatever you want, I can cooperate with you! I can even let the baby in my belly and I be your hostage! But I only have one request, you let Itachi go!"

"Oh?" Tiandao raised his eyebrows and said, "You are really mother and son. Your son is also going to be my hostage so that I can let you go."

Mikoto used her nails to pinch the flesh of her palms, letting the pain keep her mind calm. "How can that be? No matter how you think about it, a pregnant woman who can't resist is more of a bargaining chip than a lively child, right?"

Seeing that the other party seemed to be hesitant, Mikoto hurriedly said: "Besides, don't underestimate Itachi... He is very thoughtful. If you take him with you, be careful that he will plot against you!"

While speaking, Mikoto intentionally or unintentionally shone the flashlight towards the entrance, signaling Itachi to run away quickly...

This little calculation... of course couldn't be hidden from Tiandao's eyes. He glanced at it coldly to see how Itachi would react.

Itachi's expression, however, was uncharacteristically calm at this moment.

He discovered something belatedly.

Just now... he cut my arm with a kunai, then collected my blood in a container and asked me to bandage the wound.

His purpose...isn't it to seek revenge?

When I first saw him, I had a preconceived notion that he was seeking revenge for his father.

But at this moment it looks like... not.

Something related to taking blood... Could it be that the other party's goal is the Uchiha clan and the power of their bloodline limit?

And he spared my life...which means I am still useful to him. At least, that’s how I am now!

A bold idea emerged in Itachi's mind: This might... be the only way to make the other party give up.

If the other party refuses to give in, he can do nothing about it, because... he has no choice.

Itachi took a deep breath and said in a strong voice, "You can't hurt Sasuke!"

"Oh? This is, why?"

"Shua!" Itachi put a kunai against his neck: "If you hurt Sasuke, I will end my life and prevent you from achieving your ulterior motives through me!!!"

Mikoto's face suddenly changed: "Itachi!!!"

Oh, he saw through my intentions...this is really not easy.

Seeing that Pain Tiandao was unmoved, Itachi used the blade of the kunai to cut a little skin on his neck: "If you leave here now, you will have a chance to get what you want in the future, but if I die now, you will be very troubled!"

Haha... maybe.

He glanced coldly at Itachi from the corner of his eye.

Nagato's cold thoughts flowed.

But Itachi...you're not my only choice.

At worst, I can remove your eyes and find another suitable person to open them for you. Although it will take some trouble, it is better than you threatening to commit suicide and ruining my mood!

"If you want to die, just die."

Tendou raised his palm indifferently and pointed it at Mikoto.

"call out!"

Under Itachi's horrified and Mikoto's frightened gazes, the latter was pulled towards the sky by gravity!

“Stop, stop it…!!!!”

Ignoring Itachi's screams, a black stick fell from Tendou's sleeves and pierced into Mikoto with a click!

The blood...stained the tatami and made Itachi's eyes suddenly lose focus.

Pain Tiandao's cold words floated towards him: "Once, like this, my parents were also killed by you Konoha ninjas."

"Itachi, you are used to the death of ninjas, but is it any different when your loved ones are killed right in front of you?"

Tiandao said as he took out the blood bottle, squatted down and began to collect blood samples.

The conversation between Nagato and Orochimaru a few days ago is still fresh in my mind.

"Oh right...if the baby is already in the mother's womb but not yet born, how should I choose? Should I wait until he is born?"

"Well, if... the child is already in the mother's womb, we can just take the mother's blood sample."

Use Mikoto's blood... to get Sasuke's blood sample.

Among the five target candidates, Sasuke's blood sample plays a vital role.

Because...he is the reincarnation of Indra.

The power of Indra is an indispensable element in opening the Samsara Eye.

Although, I don't know yet whether this blood sample has enough Indra elements required to open the eyes, but it is always a good idea to get it first.

After collecting all the blood, Tiandao put the blood bottle into his sleeve and stood up.

"Swoosh!" A sound of breaking air suddenly came from behind!

Tiandao waved his sleeves... and the flying kunai was bounced off and hit the wall!

Tiandao turned around and saw that behind him, Itachi had tears in his eyes, and in each of his blood-red pupils there was a shining single magatama...

Oh? He opened his eyes at the age of four... Four years earlier than when he opened his eyes at the age of eight.

Well... this is another unexpected gain from this trip.

"thump!"

Itachi knelt on the tatami, "Hu, ah, hu, ah..." He panted heavily because of the sadness of losing his loved ones and the feeling of powerlessness in the current situation.

He is too weak now. Even if he opens the Sharingan... it won’t change anything.

Pain Tendou pulled the black stick out from Mikoto's 'shoulder', walked past Itachi, and put on his shoes at the entrance.

Before opening the door and leaving, he said: "Itachi, stop your mother's bleeding quickly, if you still want to see your brother born safely..."

"!!!" Itachi suddenly raised his eyes and rushed to Mikoto to confirm the latter's vital signs and injuries.

He immediately used all his strength to move Mikoto onto the tatami, took out the medical kit at home, and used the Sharingan to bandage Mikoto's wound.

"He avoided the vital parts and the wound was not deep... Why? Was he trying to stimulate me and make me activate the power of the Sharingan?"

"Itachi." Mikoto opened her eyes tremblingly and murmured his name.

Itachi knelt on the tatami, held Mikoto's hand, placed it on his forehead, and said softly: "It's all right, Mom..."

Outside Konoha, on the top of a high mountain, in the rain, Nagato sighed: "During the Operation Heavenly Path, the Hell Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Asura Path were all wiped out one after another. Konoha during this period was extremely strong..."

Nagato put two fingers upright in front of his chest.

"We have finally got what we were supposed to get. Now, it's time to retreat."

Chapter 27: Ready to make a move...

Outside the headquarters of Konohagen, rain was hitting the eaves. A man in a black robe, half of his face covered by a white ribbon, his right arm wrapped in a black sleeve, his left hand holding a cane, was listening quietly to the masked man in white kneeling in front of him, reporting the situation to him.

"That's the situation... The invading enemies seem to have the 'eyes' we saw in the Rain Country!"

After listening, he closed his eyes and pondered, recalling the scene half a year ago when he first saw the fledgling red-haired young man in the war-torn Rain Country. When his companion's life was threatened, he accidentally synchronized with the 'Outer Path Golem'. "It appeared earlier than the beginning of this work and in the original animation."

That kind of shock that struck the soul directly... is still engraved in the bones of this man, Shimura Danzo, who is known as the dark side of the ninja world.

That kind of power...is not of this world.

Danzo opened his eyes and said, "The Samsara Eye is not such a cheap power."

"Immediately write a letter to Hanzo, the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, telling him that the Akatsuki thieves who escaped during the last encirclement have appeared in Konoha and have gained new powers. He should be extra careful..."

"Yes!" The Root member asked cautiously, "Then Sir...will the Root take action against the enemy this time?"

"No need. There is no existence in this ninja world that is so strong that the old and new generations of Hokage cannot defeat it together."

"But... the remains left by the enemy must be worth exploring. I want to know the secret of why the Samsara Eye appears repeatedly!"

Boom...thunder and lightning, a dark smile appeared on Danzo's lips.

"Because, the Samsara Eye surpasses the First Hokage and Uchiha Madara. It is the power of the Six Paths Sage. Even if I can't get it, I will destroy this power!"

……

The eastern district of Konoha was reduced to ruins in the fierce battle.

Both the Asuras and the Hungry Ghosts were killed here.

It was Hiruzen who defeated them, but it was Minato who put an end to them.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was in his prime, he was wearing armor, holding Ruyi rod in his hand, standing in the rain, with a sharp glance at Minato: "Minato, you shouldn't kill, it will bring diplomatic problems."

Minato explained the reason in a respectful tone: "Sir, I had no choice but to do this. The enemy who stole the Book of Seals blew himself up in front of me. I am afraid that the two of you will do the same and hurt innocent people. If this causes diplomatic problems, I will bear the responsibility!"

"Alas, there is nothing we can do about it."

Hiruzen sighed softly, hoping that this was an act of treason by the Sand Village or other ninja villages, so that the other party would not be able to take the opportunity to attack Konoha.

At this time, the Ruyi Stick opened its 'eyes', and Yuan Mo said solemnly: "Speaking of which, the abilities of these two are really tricky. The absorption ability of that big guy has made all your ninjutsu ineffective."

"As for the other guy, he's even more troublesome. Not only can he use the Sand Iron Magnetic Release that's as powerful as the Third Kazekage, but his body is also filled with strange and bizarre stuff. If it weren't for my Diamond Body, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to handle it!"

Sand Iron Magnetic Release that is as strong as the Third Kazekage's... these words caught Hiruzen's attention.

"..." He walked forward and used the Ruyi Stick to push away the rocks and rubble that buried Shura Road. He stared at the face that he had not been able to see closely during the battle.

"What!? How could this happen?"

After seeing this, it didn’t matter. His pupils suddenly contracted and his five fingers tightly clenched the Ruyi Stick!

"He... is the Third Kazekage!!!"

"What...!?" Minato and the Konoha jonin present were all shocked.

During the reign of the Third Kazekage, relations between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind were tense, and there were almost no missions exchanged between them. During the war, the Third Kazekage was stationed in the rear, and no Konoha ninja had ever seen his true face!

"The Third Kazekage is known as the strongest Kazekage in the history of the Sand Village. His mysterious disappearance directly led to the surrender of the Sand Village, marking the end of the Third Ninja World War!"

"This strongest Kazekage whose whereabouts are unknown...actually attacked Konoha after the war!?"
