Chapter 705

"Yo, you look quite nostalgic in that state!"

Just then, a voice reached Uchiha Itachi's ears.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Itachi frowned slightly, then looked up, only to discover that there was absolutely no one around.

"Hmph, how do you have the time to come here? Aren't you supposed to be holding off the people from Konoha?"

To this, Uchiha Itachi showed no surprise at all; instead, he spoke to the air as if talking to himself.

"You usually have such an indifferent expression; it's rare to see you in such a sorry state, so how could I possibly pass this up?"

The mysterious voice reached Uchiha Itachi's ears once again.

And this time, accompanying the voice was a series of spatial tremors.

"Why, your face, your body, why are they..."

Uchiha Itachi had long since guessed the owner of the voice; it was the person he truly worried about in his heart—Uchiha Obito.

However, when he saw the figure of Uchiha Obito who had arrived, he froze.

"How about it, surprised? I remember when we first met, I was probably about this big!!"

Uchiha Obito did not mind Uchiha Itachi's surprise and continued speaking on his own.

"Yeah, it really is nostalgic!"

Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi closed his eyes again.

"Amaterasu!!"

A moment later, when he opened his eyes again, the spot where Uchiha Obito had originally been was immediately covered in black flames.

"Hey, hey, hey, no need to start fighting the moment we meet! We're old acquaintances, after all; we can at least chat, right?"

Uchiha Itachi had no interest in knowing about Uchiha Obito's physical changes.

At this moment, he did not have much time left.

Originally, he had wanted to concentrate his last bit of strength to help his younger brother eliminate hidden dangers.

But when he saw who had come, he still couldn't help but strike.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

However, Uchiha Itachi's body, which was on the verge of collapse, could no longer withstand this ninjutsu that placed such a heavy burden on his own body.

In a short while, Uchiha Itachi began to cough up blood.

"Put away your hostility! We didn't come here with malicious intent; someone just simply wanted to meet you!!"

Uchiha Obito walked out of the Amaterasu encirclement with ease.

Then, he looked at Uchiha Itachi with a smile and said.

"......"

Looking at Uchiha Obito's appearance, Uchiha Itachi knew very well that given his current physical condition, there was no way he could kill the man before him.

Yet, he was still unwilling to give up. For the sake of his younger brother, for Konoha, and for the Ninja World, even if the hope was slim, he still wanted to try.

"Stop, Itachi!"

Just then, a voice that had appeared in his mind countless times suddenly rang in his ears.

"Huh!?"

At first, Uchiha Itachi found it somewhat unbelievable.

But when he saw that there was another person beside Uchiha Obito, he froze.

"Fa, Father!!!???"

Uchiha Itachi had unknowingly activated his Mangekyo Sharingan once again.

Regarding the person before him, Uchiha Itachi knew very well that he had already died, because the one who killed him was none other than himself.

But now, he had appeared before him again, which could only mean that he had unknowingly fallen into a genjutsu.

"Have you seen enough? If you've seen enough and confirmed that I'm not an illusion, then extinguish the Amaterasu so we can have a proper chat!"

Regarding Uchiha Itachi's actions, both Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Fugaku expressed their understanding.

Especially Uchiha Fugaku; when he saw his son at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.

This son of his had been wise and calm since he was a child.

No matter what the matter was, he always had his own ideas.

Or perhaps it was because he was too smart, and thus wanted to shoulder many responsibilities that did not belong to him.

And these responsibilities had, unknowingly, left him physically and mentally exhausted...

"......"

Uchiha Itachi took a deep look at his father, then controlled his Sharingan to extinguish the Amaterasu.

Seeing Uchiha Itachi extinguish the Amaterasu, both Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Fugaku silently breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't that they were afraid of Uchiha Itachi's strength.

It was just that given his current physical condition, if a fight were to break out, they would find it very difficult to gauge their strength!

"Who, exactly, are you..."

Uchiha Itachi closed his eyes, gathered his thoughts, and after a long while, opened them and asked slowly.

"You want to ask what kind of things we are, or rather, what kind of people we are, right!"

Looking at Uchiha Itachi's expression, Uchiha Obito couldn't help but ask with a smile.

Regarding this junior, whether it was in the world Uchiha Obito came from or other worlds, he always appeared very indifferent.

Except for one time when he saw Uchiha Itachi laughing wildly in a memory video, it was very difficult to see him with any other expression.

Now that the opportunity was rare, Uchiha Obito couldn't help but want to tease him!

"......"

Uchiha Itachi glanced at Uchiha Obito, then fixed his gaze on Uchiha Fugaku.

Uchiha Itachi knew all too well how unreliable Uchiha Obito was.

Therefore, he did not want to waste time on him.
