Chapter 97 Uchiha Yue, let's recall that flutter of the heart!
Chapter 97 Uchiha Yue, recall that stirring feeling!
Uchiha Itachi kept shaking his head, and because of the violent movements, his head fell off his neck. If he weren't already dead, he would be dead now.
"Different? How are they different? Is this your reason for attacking us ignorant civilians? Is this your reason for killing us all but sparing your brother? Hahaha, interesting, very interesting. Uchiha Itachi, admit it, you're a beast, a beast who talks about the Will of Fire but only thinks of himself!"
Uchiha Yue laughed, then ignored Uchiha Rong. In his eyes, Uchiha Itachi was already a dead man, and his soul would become his sustenance after the Edo Tensei collapsed.
"No—no, no, that's not it, that's not it—"
Itachi Uchiha's head lay on the ground, constantly murmuring, "Everything I did was for Konoha, for the Will of Fire. Even keeping Sasuke alive was for the village. Everything was for the village, for the Uchiha clan. How could he have any selfish motives? No, he didn't. 'Itachi, pull yourself together! I still believe you're a good kid!'"
"Yes, Itachi, I admit that I was somewhat prejudiced against you in the past, but now I understand your will, I have witnessed your determination, and I have accepted you. You are a good ninja of Konoha!"
The conversation between Uchiha Tsuki and Uchiha Ryu was not kept secret from Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen. Now, they can communicate normally, although they cannot see each other.
At this moment, after Uchiha Ryu was on the verge of collapse, encouragement came from the two of them.
"Lord Danzo, Lord Hokage—you—"
Hearing the encouragement from the two adults, Itachi Uchiha's collapsing will was rekindled. He was deeply moved, and a surge of passion welled up in his heart. This—this is the trust between comrades?
"Uchiha Tsuki, I know you are a good person. Your will is stronger than anyone else's. You are an ordinary person, but you have never given up your dream of becoming a ninja. You are kind to others and help the weak. Your passion for the village has never been forgotten by the village!"
"Put away your power, Uchiha Tsuki. It's all in the past, everything is in the past. Danzo and Itachi have both realized their mistakes, they have apologized, and they have paid the price for their actions!"
"So, put it away, put your power away. The village is in dire straits now. Only you, only you, Uchiha Tsuki, can become the new Hokage. Only you can lead Konoha to greatness once again!"
"Do you remember? Uchiha Tsuki, remember! Remember that feeling, that love for the village! The village loves you! Everyone in the village loves you too!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his hands, then dropped them to the ground. No ninja could resist the temptation of becoming Hokage. Besides, they had already apologized and bowed in reverence. What more did he want?
Uchiha Tsukuyomi, don't be so clueless!
Uchiha Tsukuyomi's claim of not caring about the village was completely taken as an angry outburst; how could he possibly truly not care?
"Hiruzen, you—"
Danzo Shimura's incredulous voice rang out, "This—this is different from what we discussed when we came in. Didn't we say we were going to come in and persuade Uchiha Tsuki to commit suicide?"
What's going on now? You actually want this beast who dared to harm his fellow villagers to be the new Hokage?
Hiruzen Sarutobi, are you awake?
You should know that Uchiha Tsuki killed you. Assassinating the Hokage is tantamount to betraying the village and trampling on the Will of Fire. You didn't kill him, but you actually want Uchiha Tsuki to become the Hokage?
They've gone mad, they've really gone mad!
"Shut up, Danzo!"
Before Danzo could continue speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted him, fearing that the fool Danzo would interfere with his persuasion of Uchiha Tsukuyomi.
"——"
Danzo Shimura immediately shut his mouth, feeling incredibly uncomfortable as if a wad of phlegm was stuck in his throat. But—but the current situation was indeed a bit off, completely different from their plan. According to the procedure, Uchiha Tsukuyomi should already be weeping uncontrollably, deeply moved and in pain, and then kill himself to find release.
But listen to what Uchiha Tsukuyomi is saying.
He doesn't care about the village at all!
Is it going to fail?
However, judging from Hiruzen Sarutobi's current state, there's more to the story—
"Haha, who cares about the Hokage? Who cares about the village? Hiruzen Sarutobi, have you forgotten? I've never been a ninja. Your tricks for dealing with ninjas won't work on me. Who do you think you are? I just want you all to die! Hahaha!!!"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tsukuyomi looked at him as if he were a clown, and although he was laughing, his eyes revealed utter indifference.
To be honest, what he was seeing was completely unexpected. He couldn't understand what these idiots were thinking, that they would make him commit suicide. Was this even a thought that a human brain could come up with?
What gives you the right to persuade a strong person to commit suicide?
They're a bunch of lunatics, and that old bastard Hiruzen Sarutobi too. What's with all this talk about the Will of Fire and the village? Who cares about that stuff?
"you--"
Upon hearing Uchiha Tsuki's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed, and he immediately wanted to say something, but—
"Fine, I don't want to listen to your nonsensical clown talk anymore. Besides, your time is up, you're due to die!"
With a casual wave of his hand, Uchiha Tsuki absorbed the sound waves, and Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice instantly vanished into nothingness.
It failed? It actually failed—
Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent. He hadn't expected that anyone could resist the temptation of becoming Hokage. They were wrong. Their guesses were completely wrong. Uchiha Tsukuyomi felt no regret whatsoever for what happened back then, and didn't even care!
This is a beast! This is absolutely a beast!
Unworthy to be a Konoha resident!
It's important to understand that even Orochimaru, despite betraying the village, still possessed the Will of Fire and cared about the village to some extent.
But Uchiha Yue—
'It seems that Uchiha Tsukuyomi's refusal to move is not due to guilt, but for other reasons. Could it really be because of a defect?'
Hiruzen Sarutobi silently thought to himself that he needed to change his strategy and methods for dealing with Uchiha Tsuki.
