Itachi is My True Love

There's no mistake.

Three years ago, after Itachi became a genin, he was on a escort mission with his teammates when they encountered this masked man halfway.

At that time.

Itachi's teammate Tenma was tragically killed by the masked man while protecting him, causing Itachi to awaken his Two-Tomoe Sharingan on the spot.

Strangely.

The masked man killed everyone present, but spared Itachi.

Was it because they were both Uchiha?

"Don't be nervous, Itachi. Thanks to me, you were able to awaken the Sharingan and gain your reputation as a genius today, weren't you?"

Obito sized up Itachi's Sharingan and teased, "Speaking of which, you should be thanking me."

"I wish I never had these eyes."

Itachi replied as calmly as he could, clenching his fists without realizing it.

Why.

He had lost his cherished companion, yet the murderer, the masked man, claimed to be helping him. His father only cared about congratulating him on awakening the Sharingan, as if Tenma's life was worthless in their eyes.

"These eyes chose you, because you are an Uchiha."

Obito saw the anger in Itachi's heart and opened his arms to him, "Accept your truest self, Itachi. You and I might just become very good friends."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Shing.

The Three-Tomoe Sharingan under Obito's mask suddenly spun, finally transforming into a triangular pinwheel pattern.

Mangekyo Sharingan.

Under the gaze of this eye.

Itachi trembled, enveloped in fear, his body frozen in place, just like three years ago.

He thought he had grown a lot, but he never expected he was still far from enough.

Move.

Itachi shouted inwardly, veins bulging on his forehead, his fingernails digging into his flesh, drawing blood.

Just then.

A large hand gently landed on Itachi's shoulder from behind.

"Mr. Masked Man, Itachi is my nephew, the beloved of my Uchiha Dan. You can't take what others love," Dan said, pulling Itachi back to his side as if he were a chick.

"Uncle."

Itachi looked up, surprised by Dan's words, but at the same time, he felt a sense of... security, as if he were being protected.

Obito chuckled.

With a swish, he drew the Ninja Sword from his waist, pointed its tip at Dan, and said condescendingly, "Uchiha Dan, it's time to continue what we didn't finish last night. Let me see your strength, see if you can please me, and if you are worthy of my training."

Upon hearing this, Dan glanced at Itachi and instructed his nephew to step aside.

To avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Itachi nodded, knowing he couldn't help, but he didn't forget to remind his uncle, "Be careful of the masked man's strange Sharingan, Uncle. He seems to be able to manipulate space in some way."

Before he could finish speaking.

BOOM!

Dan stomped on the ground and charged forward, his entire body like a speeding train crashing into Obito.

He threw a punch, and the gods and demons were startled.

"Oh my, you're quite spirited. Trying to strike first? Too bad..."

Obito's expression was mocking. He stood his ground without moving, completely unfazed, letting Dan's fist, wrapped in a sharp wave of air, smash into his face.

A bizarre scene unfolded.

Dan's fist, and his entire arm, passed through Obito's body without any obstruction, as if the latter were merely an intangible phantom.

BANG!

Dan's punch finally landed on a large tree behind Obito.

With a deafening roar, the tree, which required several people to embrace and stood over twenty meters tall, crashed down with a rumble, startling a large flock of birds in the forest.

"Tsk tsk, you're an Uchiha, yet you possess monstrous strength comparable to the Senju Clan. How terrifying."

Obito feigned surprise at Dan's strength, saying "terrifying" while gripping his Ninja Sword with both hands. His body flashed, and he appeared behind Dan.

Lightning Speed.

A diagonal slash came down.

Dan didn't have time to turn, but he wasn't flustered. Instead, he exerted force, instantly tightening all the muscles in his back.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.

Obito's slash landed on Dan's back, and a string of sparks actually flew out, as if he were cutting not a human flesh and blood body, but a bronze bell.

Dan had long since cultivated Steel Muscles and Bones.

Especially his back, it was the area with the most muscle groups and the strongest defense on his entire body, much harder than a turtle shell.

This slash ultimately only left a shallow white mark on Dan's back, not even cutting through Dan's skin to draw blood.

Not only was Dan unharmed.

Instead, he flexed the muscles in his back and exerted force again, shattering Obito's Ninja Sword with a "bang."

The next second.

Without looking back, Dan violently swung an arm backward, creating a series of air explosions and striking Obito's face again.

However, this attack still passed through Obito's body, hitting only empty air.

Obito retreated a few steps lightly and gracefully, clapping his hands and praising:

"Not bad, really not bad.

Although your speed is a bit lacking, your strength and defense are quite astonishing. To reach this level of physical combat is indeed One in Ten Thousand.

Uchiha Dan, I admit you are qualified to replace that guy Yashiro and become the new leader of the Radical Faction."

Obito's words indicated that he acknowledged Dan's strength and deemed him worthy of being his dog.

But after the praise, he changed the subject, asking Dan with a look of doubt, "However, have you forgotten that you are an Uchiha? Your Sharingan, you haven't awakened it yet, have you?"

Facing Obito's mockery.

Dan remained silent. He reached out and tore off his cumbersome upper garment, revealing a terrifying physique.

"Roar!"

A roar like a Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain erupted from Dan as he charged at Obito again. The veins on his entire arm bulged, channeling the power of his whole body into an even stronger punch.

Before the fist even arrived, the wind from the punch was already causing Flying Sand and Rolling Stones.

Obito sighed and shook his head.

"Don't you understand yet? No matter how strong or fast your punch is, you can't hit me. Because this Mangekyo Sharingan of mine is the true power of the Uchiha."

As he spoke, the familiar scene indeed played out again.

Dan's punch passed through Obito's body once more.

Moreover, due to excessive force, his entire body tilted forward under the effect of inertia, briefly losing balance.

At this moment.

Dan's punch was spent.

Old strength exhausted, new strength not yet born, his whole body was a weakness, completely exposed to Obito.

Obito naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.

With a rustle.

An Iron Chain dropped from his sleeve, the two ends shackled to his left and right wrists, his unique weapon for fighting in conjunction with his abilities.

Taking advantage of Dan's wide-open defense.

Swish.

Obito flicked his hand, using the Iron Chain to bind Dan's neck and body, restricting the latter's movements.

The next second.

He grabbed Dan's wrist, his right eye once again emitting a strong pupil power fluctuation, distorting space, intending to suck the latter into the Kamui World.

When Obito's Kamui activates, everyone except himself will fall unconscious during the process of traversing space.

As long as Dan is brought into the Kamui Space, he will become a prisoner with nowhere to escape, and at that time, for freedom, he will have to kneel and submit to Obito.

Otherwise, he would be imprisoned in the Kamui Space for life, until death.

I've won.

As victory was imminent, a smile couldn't help but curve the corners of Obito's mouth.

But he didn't know that his opponent was waiting for this very moment!
