Uchiha Itachi's End

Because they were his beloved ones, Madara Uchiha would not allow Uchiha Tajima and Uchiha Izuna to be subjected to any seals or coercion.

Incidentally, Uchiha Chiri also received preferential treatment and became a free Impure World Reincarnation) user.

The greatest advantage of a free spirit is the ability to unleash 100% of the body's fighting power, but the downside is that one might be persuaded by the enemy and lose the will to fight.

For example, although Uchiha Tajima didn't believe his son could be so stupid, he also completely lost the urge to fight his juniors.

Well, it's also possible that he hasn't Awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan yet, and he feels completely insecure facing a group of Mangekyou Mangekyō Sharingan juniors.

He was the elder of all the Uchiha present. If he were to be beaten up by a fifth-generation descendant and have to rely on his son for help, he would lose all face.

The key issue is that the current Uchiha Clan Head leader is a young girl. If they can't beat their granddaughter, they'll lose all face.

Uchiha Izuna was a good-natured brother-complex child who never liked fighting and was even less willing to fight his clansmen.

Unless Madara Uchiha appears here and points at Uchiha Izumi saying "Hit her," he will not set aside his reservations and kill according to his brother's wishes.

As for Uchiha Chiri, she was overjoyed to see a female Clan Leader. If the old Clan Leader hadn't looked so dark, she would have jumped over and hugged Uchiha Izumi, asking her how she became the Clan Leader.

That's truly a source of pride for the Uchiha Ninja!

As a result, no fighting broke out along the way. Instead, they started discussing family trees and tracing bloodlines, creating a harmonious and joyful atmosphere.

Among the Akatsuki, four were most familiar with Konoha, and Uchiha Itachi was one of them.

He led Kisame Hoshigaki through a maze of paths, avoiding numerous surveillance cameras, until they reached the Valley of the End, less than 100 kilometers from Konoha.

Uchiha Itachi came here to rest temporarily, as constantly activating his Sharingan to search for surveillance equipment was quite taxing on him.

But as soon as he entered the valley, he saw his younger brother.

Actually, there are also Kakashi Hatake and Naruto Uzumaki, as well as Might Duy and his son Might Guy, but this brother-obsessed guy automatically ignored everyone else and only saw his own brother.

--

To Uchiha Itachi's delight, his foolish younger brother was radiating the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan; he was now Mangekyō Sharingan Ninja.

All he needs to do now is entrust his eyes and will to his younger brother, so that his brother can become his perfect Inheritors, inheriting his will and ideals, and fighting to the end for Konoha and the Uchiha Clan!

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi had no idea what kind of Konoha and Uchiha Clan he truly desired.

He dared not even think about it, because he would go crazy if he did.

Uchiha Itachi just wanted to end it all as soon as possible, to return to the peace of death, and to no longer suffer the torment of his soul and the agony of his memories.

He didn't want to live anymore.

Chakra is a miraculous power, Mangekyō Sharingan is an even more the Miracle power that can influence reality with willpower. When Uchiha Itachi no longer wanted to live, his Kekkei Genkai illness worsened at a rate ten or even a hundred times faster.

Nine years had passed, Uchiha Itachi's body was already broken and tattered. He should have died long ago, but he was only Isshin that "he shouldn't die now" and was just maintaining his vital signs with the power of his Mangekyō Sharingan.

But no matter how excited he was, Uchiha Itachi's face remained unchanged.

He removed his straw hat and said in a calm tone, "It's been a long time, Kakashi- senpai. And... Sasuke."

Naruto Uzumaki sneered, "The mouth can deceive with words, the eyes can deceive with some emotions, and facial expressions are the most deceptive of all, but the brain doesn't lie."

"So, stop trying to be cool, Uchiha Itachi."

"My [Magnet Style: Mantra] can sense your brain. You're extremely excited right now; you're almost going crazy with joy."

Naruto Uzumaki had a high reputation in Konoha, and his words were completely believed by the Konoha Ninja. When they looked at Uchiha Itachi, they all felt that he was just pretending.

As a result, Uchiha Itachi's carefully cultivated demeanor became a joke, and even Kisame Hoshigaki secretly looked at his teammates with suspicion.

Might Duy burst into hearty laughter. "Haha, you shark-faced Shark Face over there, that big sword on your back looks familiar. Shall we go somewhere further away and discuss the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist?"

Kisame Hoshigaki's attention snapped to this, and after scrutinizing it several times, enduring the intense visual discomfort caused by the green bodysuit, he recognized Might Duy's identity.

"So it was you! Konoha actually resurrected a monster like you. Is the Fifth Hokage really not afraid of Kirigakure turning against him?"

"Alright, alright, I do want to talk to you about the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Kirigakure can be washed away today!"

Kisame Hoshigaki left Uchiha Itachi behind and followed Might Duy and his son into the depths of the valley.

Uchiha Itachi didn't care much about Kisame Hoshigaki's departure; on the contrary, the departure of Might and his son made him feel much more relaxed.

Might Duy's record of eliminating the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist in one battle was too astonishing. Even the Fourth Raikage felt uncertain when facing him, let alone Uchiha Itachi.

Speaking to the two Ninja he feared, Uchiha Itachi immediately activated his Mangekyō Sharingan. He wanted to clear the area and have a proper conversation with his younger brother.

[Mangekyō Sharingan · Tsukuyomi]

Despite further damaging his eyesight, Uchiha Itachi pulled Kakashi Hatake, Naruto Uzumaki, and Uchiha Sasuke into the Tsukuyomi Genjutsu space.

But to his shock, the Konoha Team 7 (excluding Sakura Haruno) in the Tsukuyomi Genjutsu space were not bound to crosses; it was Uchiha Itachi who was bound!

"That's impossible!"

Naruto Uzumaki said, "No, this is only natural."

"Uchiha Itachi, you seem to have forgotten that you once pulled my teacher, the Fifth Hokage Shazo, into your Tsukuyomi Space."

Uchiha Itachi's pupils contracted sharply, but he still found it impossible. "No, I haven't forgotten!"

"But I have reclaimed the Tsukuyomi Space, and based on my previous experience, I have made complete changes!"

Uchiha Sasuke and said, "My foolish brother, that was the Fifth Hokage! How could you so easily clean up the place he once set foot in?"

Uchiha Itachi: "Even if the Fifth Hokage left a backup plan, how did you manage to Turning the Tables and seize my Tsukuyomi Space?"

Sasuke pointed to his eyes, which immediately transformed into the intricately patterned Mangekyō Sharingan.

He said, "Of course, it's by relying on the Mangekyō Sharingan, with its overwhelming ocular power, and taking advantage of the Fifth Hokage's backup plan to seize the reading space."

Uchiha Itachi scoffed, "You? My dear brother, your eye power is nowhere near as strong as mine. You're simply not qualified."

"Sasuke means that Team 7 has more than one pair of Mangekyō Sharingan."

After Kakashi Hatake finished speaking, he pushed aside the Forehead Protector covering his left eye, revealing a Mangekyō Sharingan.

Uchiha Itachi was stunned. "How could you possibly Awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan—no, this, this is Obito Uchiha's Mangekyō Sharingan!"

Uchiha Itachi's eyesight has deteriorated significantly, but he can temporarily regain his sharp vision by expending a large amount of his ocular power.

Within the Tsukuyomi Genjutsu space, he could see Kakashi's Mangekyō Sharingan pattern without paying any price, and it was exactly the same as Obito Uchiha Mangekyō Sharingan.

Shocker, he looked at Naruto Uzumaki: "You don't have the Mangekyō Sharingan either, do you?"

Naruto Uzumaki shook his head and said, "I don't have the Mangekyō Sharingan."

"However, I have my teacher transcribing the Rinnegan's power and Dōjutsu in my right eye."

Uchiha Itachi: "Huh?"

Naruto Uzumaki kindly explained, "Our teacher said that you're always so arrogant and like to win by cheating, so you'll definitely drag people into the Tsukuyomi Space as soon as you meet them."

"Therefore, the teacher transferred a Dōjutsu into my eyes and infused it with a large amount of pupil power as a trap to ambush you."

Uchiha Itachi suddenly broke down, screaming hoarsely, "Rinnegan? How is this possible? And what about your techniques and eye power?"

Naruto Uzumaki: "Of course it's automatically activated and used up when you cast [Tsukuyomi]."

"I already said, this is a trap set for you. Aren't you, in your current state, the prey that has fallen into the trap?"

Uchiha Itachi:

He was unable to refute it.

Uchiha Sasuke reached out and grabbed a Ninja Blade from thin air. He walked up to Uchiha Itachi and plunged it into his brother's body without hesitation.

"Uchiha Itachi, this stab was done for my father!"

Pfft

"This knife is the life you owe your mother!"

Pfft

"This cut is for myself!"

"This is for Elder Shifo Uchiha!"

"This is for Uchiha En!"

"This is for the innocent and tragic death of Uncle Teyaki Uchiha!"

Uchiha Sasuke suddenly felt his mind go blank, unable to recall any other victims, and he no longer had the urge to punish Uchiha Itachi, as if he had exhausted all his energy.

Uchiha Sasuke is actually a brother-complex character.

Naruto Uzumaki took the Ninja Blade from Sasuke and then looked at Kakashi Hatake: "Kakashi-sensei, want to try a few hits?"

Kakashi Hatake shook his head. "No, I have nothing to retaliate against."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded, but suddenly swung his sword and slashed at Uchiha Itachi's body.

The change happened so quickly that even Uchiha Itachi exclaimed in surprise, "Do you have a grudge against me?"

Naruto Uzumaki laughed and said, "There's no hatred, but there's resentment!"

"When I was four years old, I was bullied by the children in the village. Seven or eight of them pinned me to the ground and beat me, hitting my head with stones, and you happened to be passing by."

"You clearly scared those kids into stopping, so why did you leave silently after I asked for help?"

"Don't you know that doing this will only make them beat me even harder?"

Uchiha Itachi: "I—I know."

Naruto Uzumaki: "Didn't you recognize me as Naruto Uzumaki? Didn't you realize that my mother and your mother are best friends?"

Uchiha Itachi: "I've got it."

Naruto Uzumaki raised his voice and asked, "Then why didn't you save me?"

Uchiha Itachi: "I... I don't know, I don't remember."

Naruto Uzumaki roared, "Do you know what? I didn't hate you before because I didn't know you at all, and I didn't know what our relationship was. But your example made me lose trust in the Konoha Ninja, and I'll never dare to ask anyone for help again!"

"It wasn't until my teacher reached out to me and pulled me out of the Abyssal One that I truly believed in people and in the Konoha Ninja again."

"You, Uchiha Itachi, almost ruined me."

Uchiha Itachi lowered his head. "I was wrong about this, Naruto Uzumaki. You can cut me a few more times as punishment."

Naruto Uzumaki looked at him curiously and asked, "From what you've said, you think you were wrong in this matter, so you're willing to accept punishment. And before, you remained silent and were stabbed by Sasuke because you thought you were right?"

Uchiha Itachi suddenly became agitated. "I did nothing wrong!"

"The Uchiha Clan is plotting to rebel against the village, Third Hokage Uchiha Clan on guard against them. The two sides are on the verge of war, and Civil War in Konoha is imminent!"

"Purge the Uchiha Clan is the only way I can think of, after careful consideration, to save Konoha and the Uchiha Clan simultaneously—the only way!"

Kakashi Hatake firmly stated, "No, the Fifth Hokage proved with facts that that wasn't the only solution; on the contrary, it was a mistake to act as a henchman for Obito Uchiha and Shimura Danzō."

Kakashi shattered Uchiha Itachi's flawed reasoning with facts, and Itachi suddenly went mad. "No, that's not true!"

"It's all an illusion, an illusion!"

"The Fifth Hokage shouldn't be Shazo; the Fifth Hokage should be Tsunade. I should have killed all the Uchiha, shouldered all the sins of the Uchiha and Konoha, and become fertilizer for Sasuke's growth!"

I saw it----

"That's how it should be, that's how it should be!"

Kakashi Hatake looked awkwardly at Sasuke: "I didn't mean to drive him crazy, I—"

Uchiha Sasuke and said, "Kakashi-sensei, don't feel guilty yet. You'll find that he'll adjust on his own in a while, forget what you said about the Fifth Hokage, and continue to believe that he was right."

Kakashi Hatake: "Huh? You can even do that?"

Naruto Uzumaki stared in disbelief. "Was I just arguing with a madman?"

Sasuke sighed deeply, "I feel sorry, but that's just how it is."

"For the past three years, every time the Fifth Hokage does something big, Itachi comes to me and goes on a rampage."

"Once he's vented, he'll hypnotize himself to forget everything, act as if nothing happened, and continue trying to brainwash me."

"My foolish brother has long since gone mad."

Kakashi Hatake sighed, "Poor guy, I don't even want to kill him anymore."

Naruto Uzumaki: "Honestly, I feel a little embarrassed."

Uchiha Sasuke, "We've trapped him in this snare today, so let him be free from it completely."

Naruto Uzumaki and Kakashi Hatake both said at the same time, "Okay."

The three of them concentrated all their Chakra and, following Shazo's method, used the power of their three Mangekyō Sharingan as a trigger to detonate the entire Tsukuyomi Space.

As a result, Uchiha Itachi suffered a backlash from Tsukuyomi and died from a mental breakdown.
