After transforming, I became the wife of all Naruto fans.

Chapter 176 Strike First

after a while.

Uchiha secret base.

Sasuke and Itachi stood facing each other.

Both of them were scrutinizing each other with their Sharingan activated.

As for Sasuke, Itachi hadn't changed much. He still had that cold, expressionless face, his entire body hidden under the thick Akatsuki robes, with only his left hand casually resting in front of him, arrogant and indifferent.

But for Itachi, Sasuke's changes were much greater. His handsome face, inherited from his mother, had fully matured, retaining his original good looks while gaining a more sculpted, chiseled appearance.

At the same time, his thin and short body became taller, and his bulging muscles were clearly visible under the thin Uchiha traditional round-necked robe.

"He's grown up!" Itachi thought to himself.

But unlike his feelings of joy, happiness, and relief, Itachi's words were as cold and hard as a stone in a latrine: "Why aren't you charging at me recklessly like before, yelling and shouting?"

Is it because your sweetheart is outside?

"Don't worry, you don't need to be so reserved in front of me. Keep yelling and charging at me. All I need are those eyes. I'll spare your life."

"Enough! Stop with the nonsense. Do you think I'm still the same kid I used to be?" Sasuke waved his hand impatiently. "I have something to ask you, Itachi!"

"What is it?" Itachi's expression remained unchanged.

"You know perfectly well why I'm asking. Of course, it's about the night of the massacre!" Sasuke said seriously, "Itachi, I've already obtained a statement about the massacre from Danzo, and now I need yours!"

"Danzo..." Upon hearing this name, Itachi's usually expressionless face showed a flicker of emotion for the first time.

He thought that someone like Danzo would keep his secrets even if he was captured, but he didn't expect that, according to Sasuke's words, Danzo would also reveal information about the night of the massacre!

"Surprised? That guy's mouth is indeed very tough, but even the toughest mouth softens in front of those eyes!"

Sasuke closed his eyes, then opened them, and a dazzling six-pointed star appeared before Itachi's eyes.

In response, Itachi's eyes silently transformed into blood-red windmills.

The two pairs of kaleidoscopes stared at each other, their icy gazes barely touching in mid-air, yet the space around them distorted and blurred like an oil painting splashed with water by a mischievous child.

Realizing this, Sasuke and Itachi simultaneously deactivated their Mangekyou Sharingan.

"That's about enough, Itachi... no, Onii-chan!"

Sasuke's expression turned serious: "If you didn't have anything to say, why did you pull me into this genjutsu space?"

"..." Itachi remained silent.

Actually, he just wanted to test Sasuke's genjutsu skills; he wasn't planning to say anything.

Unexpectedly, Sasuke's Mangekyou Sharingan also had a tendency towards genjutsu, and his control over genjutsu was just as good as Sasuke's.

This showdown, which Itachi had been planning for nearly ten years, spiraled out of control right from the start.

No, it should be said that everything started to get out of control as soon as Sasuke teamed up with that little girl named Phoenix Temple Chiba.

Otherwise, Sasuke wouldn't have acquired the Mangekyou Sharingan without Sasuke's knowledge.

Itachi understood.

In this situation, it would be unreasonable for him not to say something.

But when asked to talk about what happened back then, Itachi really couldn't bring himself to say it.

After a long silence, Itachi finally managed to utter a dry, curt sentence: "What did you say?"

"Don't play dumb, of course it's about the Uchiha clan massacre!"

Sasuke frowned impatiently, pressing on: "I told you, I've already pried Danzo's mouth open!"

After extracting Danzo's tailed beast, taking advantage of the gap in Danzo's death, Chiba released the various seals in Danzo's body, then abolished his chakra, and used the Reanimation Jutsu to temporarily revive him. Together with Sasuke, they took him to a secret space unknown to White Zetsu for interrogation.

So Sasuke now truly knows everything.

The more Sasuke acted this way, the less Itachi could say: "Now that you've pried Danzo's mouth open, what else do I need to say?"

As soon as Itachi said that.

The atmosphere in the illusion space instantly plummeted to freezing point.

The two brothers, as stubborn as mules, faced off, neither willing to back down an inch.

Outside the illusion space, Jue's face emerged from the wall, looking at the two motionless figures with their eyes closed. Bai Jue asked in bewilderment, "What are those two doing? Why haven't they moved since they came in?"

"The battle between the Uchiha is also a battle of eyes. A battle of eyes is a battle of ocular power and spirit. The two of them should be having a genjutsu duel in the mental space right now!" Black Zetsu explained.

"That must have been an extremely fierce battle!" Bai Jue said with a hint of regret. "It's a real pity we can't see it."

Upon seeing Bai Jue's emotional reaction, the live chat immediately erupted in laughter.

"Now I suddenly understand why only virgins can write sweet romance novels."

"Intense! That's incredibly intense!"

"I can testify that He Jinyin... oh no, he single-handedly subdued Sasuke!"

"Wait a minute, wasn't Sasuke supposed to lock down one against seven?"

"You're all wrong. It was Yi Da Qi who let out a soft moan and collapsed into Sasuke's arms. At that moment, Yi Da Qi's eyes were filled with seductive allure, her tender lips parted slightly, and she exhaled a breath as sweet as orchids..."

"Brother, please, just give me another 50 cents, I'm running out of time, this is all I have today!"

"Oh, well, go read Jin Ping Mei yourself."

Those who saw this were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Seeing that Sasuke and Itachi were not going to fight for the time being, the live stream camera suddenly switched to the outside of the building where Sasuke and Itachi were.

At the massive doorway, Kisame and Chihiro stood like door gods on either side.

"Aren't we going in to take a look?" Kisame asked. "A battle between brothers is bound to be exciting, right?"

"No, there's no need. The outcome is already predetermined anyway!"

Qianyu glanced at Kisame, without saying that she could watch from here: "If you want to watch, you can go in and broaden your horizons. I'll guard here."

"You might even exclaim after watching this that Itachi's Water Release is superior to yours!"

"Itachi-san's Water Release is superior to mine?" Kisame's shark-like face showed a puzzled expression: "I don't quite understand."

"However, I do agree with your point that the outcome was predetermined!"

"The one who comes out will definitely be Itachi!"

The voice just fell.

Kisame suddenly drew Samehada from his back and delivered a powerful sweeping blow to Chiba.

With a casual gesture, Chiba blocked the attack, and the surging wind formed a wind shield, using the constantly scouring wind to stop Samehada.

Chiba was confused by Kisame's attack: "Kisame, what are you doing...?"

Qianyu didn't finish speaking.

"Pfft!"

With the bandages removed, Samehada pierced through Chiba's back and then scraped out between her two mounds of white jade.

The menacing barbs have left painful, bloody scratches on food that many people hold in their mouths as if it were going to melt.

At that moment, Kisame, who had just swung his blade, froze, then turned into a puddle of liquid and vanished.

Kisame, wielding Samehada, appeared behind Chiba.

Seeing Chiyu's astonished face, Kisame smiled cruelly: "I told you, I would strike first!"
