Chapter 468: Itachi Uchiha: Aizen?

After Danzou replaced Hiruzen Sarutobi, he naturally inherited everything belonging to the Hokage.

Including Itachi Uchiha,

this blade that was sharp enough.

Even Danzou had to admire that this blade was truly too easy to use, executing every order and procedure issued by the Hokage as perfectly as a robot.

Just like back then, when Danzou instructed the other party to kill the Uchiha Clan who wanted to incite internal strife.

It was just that, Itachi Uchiha had actually returned on his own initiative? Without his permission! Danzou's face turned gloomy, and he said in a low voice, "It's not very good for a blade to have its own thoughts."

The reason a blade is sharp is precisely because it can only listen to the opinion of the one holding it.

If the blade starts to have its own thoughts, that is also when it needs to be destroyed.

"Fine, since you delivered yourself to my doorstep, then let's completely sever these things that cannot be brought into the light."

While speaking, Danzou raised his head, looked at Aizen who was processing official business, and asked, "Can you do it?"

The gentle-looking Aizen stood up upon hearing this and said respectfully, "Thank you for your trust, Lord Danzou. Although my strength cannot defeat Itachi Uchiha, with the help of the 【Shadow Organization】, it is not difficult if I want to kill him."

"Go."

"Yes."

Aizen tidied up the unfinished documents and placed his ballpoint pen between the pages, thinking he could continue working after he returned.

There seemed to be no excessive emotions, such as the solemnity and trepidation after being entrusted by Lord Danzou, the panic in the face of a strong enemy like Itachi Uchiha, or any other signs of unease.

Seeing him in this state, Danzou nodded with satisfaction.

Such an Aizen, perfectly loyal to him, was the right-hand man he wanted.

Itachi Uchiha?

To have selfish motives even after killing his entire clan, letting his own younger brother Sasuke Uchiha go, causing him to almost be killed by the other party.

A guy like that dares to say he is loyal to Konoha? It's all nonsense and lies.

"Are we finally going to meet, Mr. Itachi."

Aizen walked with a standard gait until he left the Hokage Building, then flashed toward the direction of the barrier at the edge of the village.

At any time, fully respecting the status and power of the Hokage is something a subordinate should do.

Watching Aizen leave, Shimura Danzou, standing before the floor-to-ceiling window, revealed a satisfied smile.

Soon,

Aizen arrived at the place where the barrier had been triggered; within the lush forest, two figures stood.

"Mr. Itachi Uchiha?"

Aizen's gaze landed on the young man in the black robe leading the way, and he smiled: "Hello, I am the right-hand man of the Hokage, Aizen Sosuke, currently serving as the Leader of the 【Shadow Organization】."

"Konoha Moonlight."

Itachi Uchiha slowly spat out this title.

Aizen was one of the very few weaklings whose strength was only 【Second Tier (Elite Level)】, yet he was a player who had risen to fame within the Samsara Game.

It was precisely because of the other party's perfect personality.

His attitude toward partners was generous and warm, like sunshine and rain, able to help everyone within his power.

His attitude toward enemies was cold, yet held respect and admiration.

He was somewhat like the Fourth Hokage, who had been a flash in the pan, but compared to the Fourth Hokage, who was like a dazzling sun, Aizen was better at discovering the difficulties of ordinary people, civilians, and even children; he would not forget anyone.

He was like a handful of moonlight, gentle as water, flowing and nourishing everything in Konoha Village.

Therefore, he held the title of Konoha Moonlight.

"Konoha Moonlight..."

Before Aizen could answer, Itachi Uchiha repeated the title. He rarely envied others, because he was the most prominent genius; in terms of family background, he was the son of the Uchiha Clan Head; in terms of talent, he could learn the Fireball Jutsu with a single glance and awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan before adulthood; in terms of vision, he possessed a mindset no weaker than the Hokage.

There was simply no one around him worth envying.

Therefore, Itachi Uchiha had never experienced the emotion of jealousy.

But after seeing the smiling Aizen, he suddenly felt a blockage in his heart, for no reason at all.

Why...

He had to bear and carry the deepest darkness, while the other party could walk nakedly under the sunlight.

When he returned to the village, he was treated as an intruder who triggered the barrier, while the other party had become the Leader of the 【Shadow Organization】 in just a few short months.

Even,

in the eyes of most players, Aizen Sosuke was synonymous with the Will of Fire.

Clearly, he was the one practicing the Will of Fire; for the sake of the Will of Fire, for the sake of the Hokage's mindset, he had even killed his own parents and did not spare the old and young of his own clan.

Why? Itachi Uchiha's breathing became a bit rapid, but he quickly reacted and hurriedly adjusted his state of mind.

He continued to maintain an expressionless posture.

Aizen maintained his smile, thinking to himself: "Not bad, his mental attribute is at least above 【170】; he was actually able to resist my psychological suggestion."

【Mind Seed Lv. max】: Inflicts mental pressure and suggestion on the enemy; after a period of time, the seed sprouts, causing massive damage.

This was a very useless skill.

Although it was of the mental type, most mental-type players were unwilling to cultivate it, and it was even more impossible to cultivate it to the max level.

Because the release condition for 【Mind Seed】 required using various mental suggestions to stir up the enemy's emotional fluctuations, and only then could one brand their Mind Seed onto the other party, like tearing open plastic wrap.

The difficulty of this condition alone was very high.

Some players who redeemed the 【Mind Seed】 skill had tried spouting trash talk during battle.

This behavior was only effective against those irritable and hot-tempered players with weak wills.

If they encountered players with firm wills, or those who didn't take trash talk to heart, the Mind Seed was of no use at all.

There were also players who, before the battle, would kidnap the enemy's partners and relatives, and then, when the battle began, would harm or execute them in front of the other party.

The effect of this move is very obvious, but its drawbacks are also significant.

That is, it cannot be used in an encounter battle, and furthermore, kidnapping an opponent's partner in advance for the sake of a broken skill is not worth it no matter how you think about it.

It would be better to just cultivate and learn other skills.

Moreover,

This skill has another setting: the greater the mental shock and damage the enemy receives, the stronger the damage the Mind Seed will erupt with in the end.

It can even ignore rank barriers.

However, such harsh triggering conditions and damage-boosting requirements mean that in the entire Samsara Game, perhaps only Aizen has cultivated this skill to Lv. max.

"I am Itachi Uchiha; given your status, you are not yet qualified to know my file."

Itachi Uchiha said in a cold voice: "However, when you came, the Hokage should have already instructed..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the smiling Aizen, who said: "Itachi Uchiha, in order to maintain the stability of Konoha, you slaughtered the entire Uchiha clan that wanted to incite civil unrest with cruel means, and then bore the name of a rogue ninja, but in fact, you are a spy planted by Konoha in the Akatsuki."

He spoke out Itachi Uchiha's file with ease, as if reciting family treasures.

Such fluency could not possibly have been told by the Hokage just now; it was absolutely known long ago.

Itachi Uchiha took a deep breath, the corners of his expressionless face twitching slightly, and whispered: "You... how is that possible?"

His file, which was classified as top secret, was actually known by Aizen, who had just become a Konoha player?
