Chapter 183: Itachi's Lifespan Consumption

"I shall temporarily keep Izanagi."

Ishihara reached out, dug Izanagi from the crow's eye, and stored it away.

Though he could control Itachi's life and death, Itachi had too many thoughts; keeping him in his hands might cause trouble.

Itachi returned to that expressionless look, lowered his head, and said:

"Lord Ishihara, could you also teach me the method to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan?"

Ishihara glanced at him and saw through his thoughts.

"You wish to awaken the second ocular jutsu and Susanoo?"

"Yes, I still hope to eliminate the war that might be triggered by the conflict between the Uchiha and the Konoha elders!"

Itachi voiced his inner thoughts, and his attitude was very firm.

He was a smart man.

Since he could not change the reality of being controlled, the only thing he could think of was to continue strengthening his own power.

As long as his power was strong enough, he could naturally stop the war!

"Very well!"

Ishihara agreed.

He wanted to know whether the lifespan and talent consumed by his secret technique were related.

In the original story, Itachi awakened the Mangekyō on the day Shisui died and awakened Tsukuyomi.

However, awakening the second ocular jutsu, Amaterasu, occurred after joining the Akatsuki, with a time gap of about two years.

What about now...

Ishihara showed an expectant expression and began to dictate the Mangekyō cultivation method.
