Chapter 38 Let the World Burn

Don't wait to answer.

Itachi said to himself again:

When I was eight years old, my companion Gastrodia was killed by a masked man, which made me open Sharingan.

Father didn't care about my feelings at all when he learned about this. He just happily congratulated me while feeding the fish, saying that I had truly become a member of the Uchiha.

I learned later that for Uchiha, dead companions or relatives are sacrifices that have to be sacrificed in order to obtain the power of Sharingan.

Many clansmen gave up the lives of those they cherished, and used that moment of mental pain to stimulate themselves to open their eyes.

Whoever can endure this kind of pain is a person with 'measure'.

This is the secret of our Uchiha Clan Sharingan Sharingan, what we call 'pride'. "

His words revealed disgust and ridicule towards Uchiha.

"So that's what happened."

Suddenly echoed the sentence, but he had a different opinion in his heart.

Because, he did not experience the pain of losing his loved ones. Instead, he made a major breakthrough in a fitness training, and when he felt very happy, he awakened Sharingan.

Happy eyes open.

However, if this kind of thing is told, the nephew probably won't believe it.

Itachi stopped suddenly, staring at him with a pair of eyes, and asked:

"Uncle, you also moved outside alone because you resisted the so-called pride and glory of the Uchiha clan, right?"

He wants to know what his uncle really thinks in his heart, whether he is also disappointed and disgusted by the ethos of the Uchiha clan like him.

However, itachi was disappointed.

"No, I just wanted to be quiet, I didn't think about it that much." Duan replied.

Itachi lowered his head when he heard the words.

The two continued walking.

After a while, Itachi spoke again and asked Duan a new question:

"Uncle, in the current Konoha Village, no matter the high-level people or ordinary civilians, they all hate Uchiha. Are we really an inherently evil family like the Second Hokage said?"

"Where did you hear that?"

He asked a question, and before Itachi could speak, he shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "Why bother what others say, even if you are born evil, as long as you accept the truest self calmly."

Judgment never cares what other people think.

Even if people from the whole ninja world scold him together, he won't be depressed, he should still eat and drink, and don't take it personally. In the same way, even if people in the whole ninja world praise him together, he won't feel anything, and he will still be himself as always.

This is called deciding the distinction between inside and outside, arguing about the state of honor and disgrace, and then you can get inner freedom.

is the philosophy of Taoism in the previous life.

Itachi was very surprised by Duan's words, and frowned:

"Uncle, your realm is too high, I can't understand."

After hearing the words, a big hand landed on the nephew's head:

"You're still young, it's normal not to understand. Also, don't think like an adult all day long, there are some things you don't need to worry about."

something?

Itachi became excited as soon as he heard it. Did uncle mean the relationship between the family and the village?

He heard what Juan meant, and hurriedly asked:

"Uncle, where do you think the relationship between Uchiha and the village will go, and will reconciliation be achieved in the end?"

Duan glanced at his nephew again, shook his head, and said decisively, "Impossible."

"Why?"

"Since the death of the fourth generation, the restoration of the third generation, and the day when Uchiha was driven to the edge of the village by the high-level Konoha, the rift between the two has been irreparable, and will only grow bigger and bigger until it completely ruptures.

In the past few years, high-level means have been used to suppress Uchiha. Under such high pressure, Uchiha will sooner or later be forced to rebel and embark on the path of a coup. "

Duan said his judgment calmly (spoiler).

Coup?

Itachi turned pale with fright.

Because Zhishui also told him that if the hawks in the clan gain power, the worst case scenario is a coup.

Unconsciously.

The uncle and nephew made a big circle along the mountain road, and finally came to the top of Hokage Rock. Under the feet of the two of them were the majestic and domineering head sculpts of previous Hokages, lined up in a row.

At this time, the sun was setting and the warm wind was blowing. A large expanse of gorgeous fire clouds dyed the far half of the sky red.

Overlooking from here, the buildings of the entire Muye Village are distributed in a fan shape, with a panoramic view of the magnificent scenery.

The streets below are lined with shops and people come and go, which is full of excitement and prosperity.

but.

Uchiha's family land is located in the upper right corner of the fan-shaped area, which seems remote and deserted, and is out of place with other places in Konoha.

Like a group of outsiders.

A gust of wind blew, and the hair and clothes of the uncle and nephew fluttered gently.

At this moment, Itachi contemplated for a long time, and finally asked Duan the last question:

"Uncle, if one day Uchiha decided to launch a coup, which side would you be on, the family... or the village?"

Juan didn't answer right away, but asked back: "What about you?"

"I...I don't know."

Itachi looked confused.

Actually, when he, as a Uchiha, said that he didn't know three words, it already showed that he would not stand on the side of the family, but on Konoha.

In Itachi's heart, the tribe has long fallen into narrow nationalism.

His leader is Uchiha Shisui, and what he follows is the true will of fire represented by Shisui.

Hearing Itachi's answer, he was definitely not surprised.

Although he decided to carry out "personality modification" on his nephew, changing a person's long-standing thoughts cannot be achieved by just beating him up.

More beatings.

But today, I definitely don't plan to beat up this nephew.

"its me."

In Itachi's expectant eyes, he said two words, his gaze wandered into the distance, and he paused for a moment.

The idea of judgment has not changed.

In his opinion.

Kuye Village is a terrorist organization, just like those wonderful small countries in the previous life, it is no pity to destroy it.

The Uchiha clan is not a good thing either, it can be called a typical example of arrogance and self-destruction.

but.

If, as in the original book, Konoha didn't pay any price, let Itachi and Obito destroy Uchiha, that would be too boring.

For a traveler.

Witnessing the Uchiha's genocide night is like watching a movie you've already seen. What's the point?

What I want to see is a vigorous battle between Uchiha and Konoha's senior management, and a fair duel.

In this big drama.

Duan has no intention of being the protagonist, but he doesn't mind being a behind-the-scenes screenwriter, personally destroying Konoha's high-level conspiracy to ensure that Uchiha and Konoha can do it 100%.

let's hit.

Both sides will be hurt, and even all of them will die. The vast expanse of whiteness is really clean, and all the prosperity will disappear.

Then, the world was quiet.

Think here.

Duan showed a half-smile expression, and said to Itachi:

"I don't care about the Uchiha clan or Konoha. But I sincerely hope that the two sides will fight. It must be a spectacular scene, what do you think?"

Thinking of that scene, I can't help but look forward to it, and there is a long-lost...joy in my heart.

It was exactly the same as when he opened his eyes.

Maybe, when that day really comes, he might be able to use this joy to open the kaleidoscope.

Itachi's expression froze.

Uncle's answer made him unexpected, and he was completely stunned for a while.

"Why, why?" Itachi regained his senses and murmured.

"Because uncle and me..."

Rubbing Itachi's head with his broken hand, the corners of his mouth slowly opened, finally showing a bright smile, "I just want to see the world burn."

The voice just fell.

Shua.

A pair of broken eyes suddenly changed into the shape of three hooked jade.

It is also a three-pointed jade, and the broken Sharingan is scarletr than Itachi. In the depths of the seemingly calm pupils, there is a madness that has never been known.

Itachi trembled all over, staring blankly at Duan's eyes.

From the reflection in his uncle's pupils, Itachi saw the entire Konoha Village, which seemed to be shrouded in blood-red flames.

The leaves under the setting sun are beautiful and peaceful, but they are also like a fragile picture scroll. Once ignited, they will burn until they are reduced to ashes.

At this moment, Itachi finally saw clearly the abyss-like darkness of his uncle's heart.

Uchiha Duan is an out-and-out lunatic.
