A Passing Dog Would Get Hit by Amaterasu Too

"It worked! That's wonderful!" Uchiha Sasuke muttered to himself in delight. "Now all that's left is Uchiha Itachi!"

Uchiha Sasuke was flushed with excitement. This time, he would definitely kill the man named Shimura Danzō earlier than he had originally.

Unlike Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Itachi paid more attention to the mention of the Five Kage Summit, where the Five Kage were busy dealing with Sasuke.

The Five Kage sitting together to hold a summit was already an extremely rare occurrence. When had the last one been?

That would have to be traced back to the era of the First Hokage, right?

And now, the Five Kage had gathered together for the first time ever to deal with Sasuke?

What had Sasuke done to make the Five Kage join forces against him?

Uchiha Itachi was very concerned about this. According to his plans, Uchiha Sasuke would take his head, become Konoha's hero, and restore the glory of the Uchiha Clan.

But now, it seemed that future Sasuke would not only fail to return to Konoha and restore the glory of the Uchiha Clan—he would even become a target wanted by the Five Kage.

This was completely different from what he had envisioned before. In fact, it was the exact opposite.

Which step had gone wrong?

Uchiha Itachi was very concerned about this.

"Will there be a battle between Sasuke and Danzo next?"

Just as he was eagerly awaiting it, a video indeed appeared in the diary.

Sunny Sasuke VS the Darkness of the Ninja World! A classic scene: stabbing Susanoo with a Kunai!

Sasuke was still in his Sunny Sasuke phase at this point. Even a passing dog would get hit by an Amaterasu. The Mangekyo that went blind the fastest in history truly lived up to its name. The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and Uchiha Sasuke thought he was awesome again.

Upon seeing this assessment, Uchiha Sasuke's face instantly turned red. He was only twelve years old at this point. Although he put on a cold face and liked to act cool, he was still far from thinking he was the greatest person in the world.

He had never understood why Kitahara Kaede called him Sunny Sasuke. Now he did.

The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and Uchiha Sasuke thought he was awesome again.

Although it was teasing, it was still enough to make Uchiha Sasuke's face burn with embarrassment.

Unlike in the original history, he no longer shouted in front of others that he would kill Uchiha Itachi and take revenge. In the past, he had dared to make such grand declarations only because he did not know how powerful Uchiha Itachi was.

But with Kitahara Kaede's diary right there, he had come to understand many things. For example, the gap between him and true Jonin like Hatake Kakashi and Zabuza was already as vast as the heavens and the earth.

Yet above these Elite Jonin was a realm known as Kage Level.

Uchiha Itachi was a powerhouse firmly standing within that realm.

Just thinking about the gap between himself and Uchiha Itachi was enough for Sasuke to understand it. Yet he had still shouted about revenge. Even if others did not know, he himself felt deeply ashamed whenever he thought about it.

So although he had graduated as the top student of his year, Uchiha Sasuke was currently maintaining an unusually humble attitude. Today, he had followed Hatake Kakashi on a mission. Even though he found the mission boring and felt that it could not improve his strength,

the moment he thought about how Uchiha Itachi had gone through the same process, he calmed down.

If Uchiha Itachi could persevere, there was no reason he could not.

He was his father's son. Was he not?

Furthermore, having seen Hatake Kakashi's battle with Zabuza in the Land of Waves ahead of time, he understood the gap between himself and a top expert like Hatake Kakashi. As a result, he no longer held the faint disdain for Hatake Kakashi that he had in the original history.

Although Hatake Kakashi was far inferior to people like Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi, teaching the current Uchiha Sasuke was still more than within his ability.

The clearer all of this became, the more embarrassed and humiliated Sasuke felt now that he understood what Sunny Sasuke meant.

Hatake Kakashi finally understood where the nickname Sunny Sasuke came from as well, and could not help laughing. But then he remembered that Kitahara Kaede's mischief was not aimed only at Uchiha Sasuke. He had not said anything nice about himself either.

Sunny Sasuke was not a flattering nickname, but was Hatake the 50/50 any better?

Unlike the other two, Uchiha Itachi was more concerned about the line saying that even a passing dog would get hit by an Amaterasu.

Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Sasuke had no reaction to Amaterasu because they had no idea what it was. Uchiha Itachi, however, was different. Of the unique Dojutsu possessed by his Mangekyo, one was Tsukuyomi, while the other was Amaterasu.

Adding in Kitahara Kaede's later joke about it being the Mangekyo that went blind the fastest in history, he could roughly understand what had happened.

His first reaction was delight. This meant that Sasuke had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, which meant that his original plan—to have Sasuke take his Mangekyō and thereby advance to the Eternal Mangekyo—was feasible.

Regardless of whether he was dead by then, the plan was still viable.

Had one of the Dojutsu in Sasuke's awakened Mangekyō Sharingan also been Amaterasu?

As far as he knew, the Dojutsu awakened by the various Mangekyō Sharingan throughout history had all been different. As for whether there had ever been a case of two brothers awakening the same Dojutsu, he did not know.

The reason was simply that there were too few Mangekyō Sharingan. Moreover, not every generation produced one, and many records had been lost long ago because of the lengthy gaps between them.

So he did not know much either. Still, he felt that Amaterasu was a decent Dojutsu. It was not weak.

It could be called the strongest physical attack. Once something was touched by it, it would burn until it died. The only ways to stop it were to withdraw the flames himself or seal them with Fuinjutsu.

But he was also startled. The assessment that it was the Mangekyo that went blind the fastest in history had already revealed a great deal of information.

The Mangekyō Sharingan could go blind. Over the years, he had always conserved his Dojutsu Power, avoiding the Mangekyō whenever possible. Even so, he could vaguely feel that his vision had deteriorated severely. Things already looked somewhat blurry, and he often needed to concentrate before he could see clearly, as though he had developed farsightedness.

And if Sasuke really used Amaterasu on every passing dog, as Kitahara Kaede had said, then it was entirely possible for him to exhaust his Dojutsu Power in a short period.

No, he had to find a way to warn Sasuke, or use some other method to let him know that the Dojutsu Power of the Mangekyō was not renewable.

Even if the Eternal Mangekyo remained as a backup plan, using his Dojutsu Power so recklessly was itself a sign of an unsound mind.

"The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and Uchiha Sasuke thought he was awesome again." Uchiha Sasuke felt nothing but shame and embarrassment upon hearing this sentence. To Uchiha Itachi, however, it evoked an entirely different feeling: Uchiha Sasuke's strength had surged greatly in a short period, but his state of mind was incapable of controlling that immense power.

This was not good news.
