Chapter 120

"From the moment you ambushed me just now, you had already lost." Kuchiki Senya said coldly: "I have been waiting for you to show your flaws; how could I not be on guard against you! I knew your personality would never surrender obediently, so I stayed hidden nearby to observe, but I wanted you to completely relax your vigilance, so I didn't strike immediately."

"You are too confident, arrogant, and conceited. I just tempted you a little, and you couldn't wait to jump out and court death. If you don't die, who will?" Kuchiki Senya sneered: "In this world, there is only absolute strength; everything else is just floating clouds!"

Kuchiki Senya reached out and pulled out the long sword stuck in Uchiha Itachi's body, blood spraying out and splashing onto Kuchiki Senya's snow-white skin, adding a sense of enchanting charm to him.

"Pfft—" Uchiha Itachi opened his mouth and spat out a large amount of blood. He struggled to crawl away, but his body was soft.

Kuchiki Senya looked down at Uchiha Itachi struggling on the ground, and he walked slowly to Uchiha Itachi's front. "I know you possess the power of the Nine-Tails, and I have also obtained the Nine-Tails' chakra, but the difference between you and me is too great. Even if you possess the Nine-Tails' chakra, your realm is still too low!" Kuchiki Senya said coldly.

Kuchiki Senya pressed his right hand on Uchiha Itachi's head, and chakra surged rapidly into Uchiha Itachi's body.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Uchiha Itachi screamed in pain, but he didn't lose consciousness, because he knew that all of this was an illusion; these chakras were just illusion techniques used to interfere with his thinking.

But Uchiha Itachi didn't dare to resist at all, because if he moved randomly, Kuchiki Senya would definitely launch a killing move immediately!

For a long time, Kuchiki Senya withdrew his arm and wiped the blood from his hands.

"Your potential is indeed extraordinary!" Kuchiki Senya praised. "But your age has exceeded the limit, so you will never succeed in this life..."

"And your soul is not enough to support your success!" Kuchiki Senya shook his head and said.

"Soul?!" A flash of brilliance flashed in Uchiha Itachi's eyes.

"Yes, your chakra and your physical strength fit perfectly, even surpassing me. But this is because you were originally a Shadow-level expert." Kuchiki Senya looked at Uchiha Itachi. "And now that you have lost these, how long can you hold on?"

Uchiha Itachi's face was terrifyingly gloomy; he had to admit that what Kuchiki Senya said was true.

"The only way for you to survive now is to find a quiet place to hide and recuperate!" Kuchiki Senya said. "I won't pursue you. After all, a genius like you will definitely become a Hokage or even a Shadow-level expert in the future!"

"Are you very eager for revenge? Then I will give you a chance!" Kuchiki Senya said with a smile. "When you recover, come and find me for revenge. Then you will discover how strong my true strength really is!"

"Hmph!" Uchiha Itachi snorted and left.

Kuchiki Senya didn't stop Uchiha Itachi from leaving, just with a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth. He knew that once Uchiha Itachi ran away, he might never be able to find him.

But Kuchiki Senya was confident that he could find him and then kill him!

Kuchiki Senya's figure disappeared; he had returned to the Hidden Leaf Village silently.

Kuchiki Senya was in a good mood; after all, this plan went very smoothly, and most importantly, he had gained another pawn.

And this pawn was the newly promoted Shadow-level expert of the Hidden Leaf, Uchiha Itachi. Kuchiki Senya had already decided that once his injuries healed, he would go find Uchiha Itachi and subdue him!

Uchiha Itachi was the man who possessed the Nine-Tails; Kuchiki Senya didn't want to let him fall into someone else's hands.

And Uchiha Itachi had already returned to the Hidden Leaf at this time; his injuries had recovered, and he had even broken through to the level of a Chunin!

But Uchiha Itachi was not happy; he knew his strength was not enough to contend with Kuchiki Senya!

Uchiha Itachi now knew Kuchiki Senya's name and identity, and it was precisely because of this that his heart was filled with anger and hatred!

159. Itachi, how about we make a deal?

Kuchiki Senya, this bastard!

Back then, Uchiha Itachi was not yet a Chunin, just a Genin. As a veteran Chunin of the Hidden Leaf Village, Kuchiki Senya had the obligation to take care of Uchiha Itachi, so Kuchiki Senya would go to guide Uchiha Itachi every two or three years to help him improve his strength.

Before Uchiha Itachi became a Chunin, his strength was already on par with Kuchiki Senya's, but Uchiha Itachi was still no match for Kuchiki Senya! Kuchiki Senya's talent was truly too formidable. With Kuchiki Senya's help, Uchiha Itachi's strength soared, but he still couldn't do anything to Kuchiki Senya. Kuchiki Senya also had a place in the Kuchiki family.

It wasn't until Uchiha Itachi reached the peak of a Genin, just half a step away from a Chunin, that Kuchiki Senya suddenly appeared.

"Itachi, how about we make a deal?" Kuchiki Senya looked at Uchiha Itachi with a smile. "I can make you a Chunin for a short time, and you need to help me achieve my goal!"

Uchiha Itachi's face was ugly. "What exactly do you want to do!"

"Although your strength is not bad, it is ultimately too weak." Kuchiki Senya said with a smile. "You can't help me at all! The most important thing for you now is to improve your strength as soon as possible! Once your strength improves, perhaps I won't have expectations for you anymore, and you will be qualified to help me complete that matter!"

"Why should I believe you!" Uchiha Itachi questioned.

"You have no choice now." Kuchiki Senya said with a smile. "In any case, you were once the Kazekage, you should know how to make trade-offs, right?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi was silent for a while.

"I agree!" After a long time, Uchiha Itachi raised his head and said firmly. He had to improve his strength now; otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to get out of Kuchiki Senya's place, let alone take revenge!

"Then follow me, Itachi, you are lucky, you will become the disciple of the Second Hokage!" Kuchiki Senya laughed.

Kuchiki Senya took Uchiha Itachi and left the Hidden Leaf Village.

………………

In a valley, Uchiha Itachi and Kuchiki Senya sat on the grass.

"I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, you won't be in mortal danger now!" Kuchiki Senya said with a smile. "I guarantee you will become the disciple of the Second Hokage!"

"However, since you want to become the disciple of the Second Hokage, you always have to pay something." Kuchiki Senya said lightly, but his tone was full of strong threats. Kuchiki Senya was determined to make Uchiha Itachi a pawn in his hands.

Uchiha Itachi was silent; he had already guessed what Kuchiki Senya was going to do next. Uchiha Itachi knew this was very dangerous, and if he wasn't careful, he would be controlled by Kuchiki Senya!

But he had no choice; his current state was too bad, and Kuchiki Senya could send a few people to take Uchiha Itachi away at will.

"Heh, I forgot that you are still a piece of trash now!" Kuchiki Senya teased, his eyes staring at Uchiha Itachi, as if he wanted to see through him.

Kuchiki Senya knew that Uchiha Itachi's talent was excellent, but for some reason, Uchiha Itachi's strength was stagnant!

"However, I can tell you a secret!" Kuchiki Senya revealed a mysterious smile and handed a scroll to Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi took the scroll and studied it carefully: "This is a cultivation secret book I obtained from a small world. As long as you succeed in cultivating it, your strength will definitely soar!"

Uchiha Itachi raised an eyebrow; what was this cultivation secret book?

Uchiha Itachi examined the scroll.

"Sealing Jutsu?" Uchiha Itachi muttered to himself.

The content of this scroll was indeed a Sealing Jutsu.

Uchiha Itachi fell into deep thought as he looked at this Sealing Jutsu. This was a Sealing Jutsu very suitable for him, but the value of this scroll was too high.

"What do you think of this Sealing Jutsu?" Kuchiki Senya asked. He admired Uchiha Itachi very much and believed that Uchiha Itachi would definitely choose this Sealing Jutsu.

"As expected of Senior Orochimaru, to have such a heaven-defying Sealing Jutsu!" Uchiha Itachi whispered.

"Orochimaru?" Kuchiki Senya was stunned for a moment. "What did you say?"

"My master is named Orochimaru!" Uchiha Itachi said in a deep voice.

"You said Orochimaru?" Kuchiki Senya's eyes widened.

He had heard rumors about Orochimaru long ago, and there were many legends about him.

It is said that Orochimaru was an existence that amazed the entire ninja world, possessing incredibly powerful illusion skills and equally terrifying physical skills.

"I didn't expect you to be his disciple; it's truly moving!" Kuchiki Senya shook his head bitterly.

Back in the Hidden Leaf, Uchiha Itachi was also a genius, and he had tried to pursue Uchiha Itachi, but he failed. He lost at the hands of Uchiha Itachi, and that crushing defeat left him depressed and unable to recover.

But it was precisely because of this that Kuchiki Senya got to know Uchiha Itachi, which could be considered fate.

However, Uchiha Itachi disappeared completely later on. Kuchiki Senya had searched for Uchiha Itachi but found no clues.

Kuchiki Senya had been wondering if Uchiha Itachi had fallen, but he didn't expect to meet him again now.

"Where is Master Orochimaru now?" Uchiha Itachi asked, looking at Kuchiki Senya.

"Master Orochimaru is in the Uchiha clan; let's set off immediately." Kuchiki Senya smiled slightly.

530

Uchiha Itachi pondered for a moment, then agreed. He wanted to become strong!

Uchiha Itachi also understood that this trip was very dangerous and could even lead to death, but he still had to go.

Only by becoming strong could he save his parents, and his grandfather, Uchiha Madara, was also waiting for him to rescue him!

Uchiha Itachi stood up and clenched his fists tightly.

Kuchiki Senya also stood up and stretched his muscles.

"Itachi-kun, are you ready? I don't like to waste time!" Kuchiki Senya's mouth hooked into an evil arc, and he revealed his sharp teeth at Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi snorted and ignored Kuchiki Senya.

Kuchiki Senya was not angry; he knew that Uchiha Itachi was still in grief and pain, so Kuchiki Senya decided to let Uchiha Itachi calm down slowly.

Uchiha Itachi and Kuchiki Senya left the Hidden Leaf and set off on the road to the Hidden Mist Village.

"Itachi-kun, where is our destination?" Kuchiki Senya asked Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi closed his eyes and didn't speak.

Kuchiki Senya was not angry either; he knew Uchiha Itachi must be heartbroken.

Two months later, Uchiha Itachi and Kuchiki Senya arrived at the Hidden Mist Village.

"Is this the Hidden Mist Village?" Uchiha Itachi opened his eyes and looked around. "The chakra here is leaking very seriously!"

160. Only I can control it!

Uchiha Itachi and Kuchiki Senya walked on a street. There were no pedestrians on this street, and it looked very desolate, with only a few sparse people.

"Itachi-kun, the Hidden Mist Village is like this; countless people sacrifice themselves every year, and many children die here." Kuchiki Senya sighed.

Although he hated the Daimyo, this was a human country after all, and his ancestors were human; this point could never be changed!

"What are you two doing?" Suddenly, a voice rang out, attracting the attention of Uchiha Itachi and Kuchiki Senya.

Uchiha Itachi looked toward the source of the sound and saw a young man standing there looking at them.
