Sasuke: Bullshit, I won because I'm that damn good

[Obito: You're lying, right? Itachi lost?]

Obito was filled with disbelief. What was going on? Could someone with the Mangekyou Sharingan lose to someone with only three tomoe?

[Orochimaru: This is unacceptable! Itachi's abilities should be more than this!]

[Ōnoki: Indeed, I could sense something strange during the battle; many attacks that I could have dodged before, I couldn't.]

At this moment, everyone began to discuss the result, after all, the result was too unexpected, and no one was talking about the scene where Sasuke stabbed Susanoo with Shuriken.

Take Orochimaru for example. He experienced Sasuke's strength in the dungeon; a single glance from him could trap someone in Genjutsu.

And then there's Rasa, who understands it the most deeply, after all, he stayed in Tsukuyomi for three days and three nights, so he's the one who can best experience the terror of Tsukuyomi.

[Tsunade: No, I saw Itachi coughing up blood several times during the fight. Maybe Itachi's body is on the verge of collapse.]

This could be the effect of overusing the Mangekyō, or it could be a terminal illness that Itachi himself suffers from.

In any case, the outcome ended in an unexpected way.

At this point, even the heavily injured Sasuke could not hold on any longer and collapsed.

Zetsu immediately relayed the message to Tobi, who was toying with the Konoha.

Then, Jue emerged from the trees beneath Tobi's feet in a very strange posture.

"How did it go?" Tobi asked in his distinctive voice, clearly Tobi very concerned about his brothers' win or loss.

"It's over. Sasuke won. The Uchiha is dead Itachi." White Zetsu's words left everyone present completely stunned.

"Wow! I can't believe it!" Tobi exclaimed as if he had heard something incredibly difficult to accomplish.

However, Tobi then changed his tone. "I was just kidding, just as I expected!"

At this moment, Tobi's accent changed to a different, gloomy tone, and just by listening, you could tell that he was definitely the mastermind behind it all.

"Goodbye." The masked man, whose real name was Tobi but whose actual identity was Obito, didn't want to waste any more time with them and simply used Kamui to leave.

Everyone was left completely bewildered.

[Hozuki Mangetsu: It feels like everything is going according to the masked man's plan. Did he already know that Uchiha Itachi would die at Sasuke?]

Others might not understand the difference between Uchiha Itachi and Obito Uchiha knew it all too well, after all, Itachi was his comrade who led the massacre of the Uchiha Clan.

Obito knew Obito all too well. But that's alright. When Sasuke learns the truth, will he still be able to maintain his original kindness?

Uchiha Itachi, even you have a day you never expected.

Regarding the two brothers, Obito still hoped that Sasuke could survive. Itachi was too cautious, and he couldn't fool him at all. However, his younger brother was different.

At this point, Obito took Sasuke to a valley and began his brainwashing operation.

Sasuke had just regained consciousness, looked completely bewildered. What should I do next? Where am I going? Who am I?

It was as if he lost all purpose in life after killing Itachi.

At this moment, Obito looked at Sasuke's bewildered face and felt a surge of joy. "Didn't expect that, did you? Watch me use my Talk no Jutsu!"

"Well, let me introduce myself first. I'm from the Uchiha Clan, just like you..."

Before Obito could even use his Talk no Jutsu, Sasuke's eyes suddenly began to spin and transformed into the shape of the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Ah!"

Immediately following, an Amaterasu struck Obito, who was just about to introduce himself.

[Kakashi: Seriously? Obito, you actually intend to reason with someone? Have you forgotten you're Kenji?!]

Kakashi emphasized it sharply. He had looked so confident just now, but this is it? This is it?

What's this called? "Dead Zhuge Liang scared Zhongda to death!" Even after Uchiha Itachi died, he still managed to outwit you.

What does that mean? It means they don't take you seriously at all.

[Minato Namikaze: I feel the same way, Obito isn't cut out for this.]

Sasuke was also annoyed by Obito's screams outside. What was that thing just now?

"That's Amaterasu Itachi implanted in your body!" Obito emerged from the darkness once more.

It was as if the attack had failed to harm him.

"That's truly astonishing. As expected of Itachi."

Obito started talking about Uchiha Itachi, but poor Sasuke never knew what his brother wanted in the end.

Or do you think you can defeat Itachi on your own?

"What are you saying! Shut your mouth!" At this moment, it was unclear whether Sasuke was going crazy or simply unwilling to accept the truth.

Although he was somewhat embarrassed, Obito could still use a low-budget version of Talk no Jutsu.

Of course, Obito would never emphasize that he wiped out the Uchiha Clan; that was definitely the Danzo, the despicable 5.5 Hokage of Konoha.

If you can't find anyone to take the blame for this, then hand it over to the 5.5th Hokage Danzo.

With Obito's deliberate guidance, Sasuke's mind quickly became very unstable.

[Kakashi: Obito is deliberately influencing Sasuke's mind. What is he trying to do?]

At this point, everyone realized that Obito seemed to be saying these things on purpose.

[Fugaku: This is probably to provoke Sasuke, so that Sasuke's Mitsudomoe will evolve into the Mangekyō!]

"You must be lying to me, you're talking nonsense!"

"He almost killed me several times!" Sasuke seemed unwilling to believe it, despite how many times he had escaped death.

Now you're telling me it was Itachi protecting me?!

"If Itachi wanted to take your life, you would have been dead long ago!" Obito told Sasuke a cruel truth.

Given Itachi's strength, killing you would be as easy as killing an ant.

"He even used the Mangekyō Dōjutsu on me to kill me!" Sasuke recalled the pain of being controlled by Amaterasu.

[Shisui: Itachi, next time you need to act more convincingly, don't let people see through your act so easily.]

The guy who looked like an aloe vera plant figured it out, and even Obito figured it out, but Sasuke still thought he had killed Uchiha Itachi by virtue of his strength.

[Kakashi: If I'm not mistaken, everything Itachi did was to force Orochimaru out of Sasuke's body.]

"Shut up, everything you're saying is a lie!"

"The proof is that you're still alive!" Obito's last words completely shattered Sasuke's defenses.

Yes, why are you still alive?

You probably just think you can kill Itachi because you're so awesome. Go back to the Uchiha; there's never been a case where the Mangekyō lost to Mitsudomoe.

"Your eyes haven't seen through anything about the weasel."

"I didn't see through any of the illusions itchi had created."

"Itachi killed his friend, his boss, his lover, his father, and his mother."

"But he couldn't bring himself to do it to his own brother. Do you understand what that means?"

At this moment, Sasuke was numb and motionless.

"Because to him, your life is more important than the village!"
