Help Sasuke Awaken His Eyes, Return to the Night of the Massacre

Early morning, three days later.

Team 7 finally returned to Konoha after completing their mission in the Land of Waves.

Sitting in the guardhouse at the village gate were two faces Lin Fan knew all too well.

Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane.

Also known as the Konoha Gate Guardians.

Because the two seemed to possess a mysterious metaphysical buff; as long as they were on duty, no one dared to attack Konoha through the main gate.

Even the Pain who carried out the famous "rice-carrying incident" had to use the Naraka Path to invade the village from the air first.

"Kakashi, how was your mission this time? Everyone is uninjured, right?"

As the members of Team 7 were registering their entry, Izumo Kamizuki asked Kakashi with a smile.

"Mm, not only are we uninjured, but I, as the teacher, barely even crossed blades with Zabuza Momochi before Lin Fan subdued him."

"This might be the easiest protection mission I've taken since becoming a ninja."

Kakashi spread his hands, looking helpless.

Kotetsu Hagane was shocked upon hearing this. "Zabuza Momochi? You mean the Demon who killed over a hundred classmates during his graduation exam and later defected from Kirigakure?"

Kakashi nodded. "Yes. Under Lin Fan's guidance, Zabuza Momochi has turned over a new leaf and is now living in seclusion in the Land of Waves with his loved one; he won't be doing evil anymore."

"I used to tell my students that they were the worst batch I'd ever led, but facing this little guy, I have to change my tune."

With that, he led Lin Fan and the others into the village with a proud expression.

Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki were left standing there, both completely dumbfounded.

Although they understood that Lin Fan, who could go toe-to-toe with Kakashi, was powerful, they hadn't expected him to be capable of defeating Zabuza Momochi at such a young age.

Lin Fan's future might hold the potential of a Super Kage.

The four returned to the village together, but since Kakashi had to report the full details of the Land of Waves mission to Hiruzen Sarutobi, he hurried off to the Hokage Building alone.

"Let's go, Naruto, I'll treat you to Ichiraku Ramen."

Lin Fan said with a smile.

Having found quite a bit of money in the basement of Gato Company, he no longer had to worry about his living expenses.

"Yay!"

Naruto was exceptionally excited.

Having been away from the village in the Land of Waves for so long, he had been dying to eat the noodles made by Teuchi and Ayame.

"Lin Fan, I..."

Sasuke, that eternal ice-cold face, also began to take the initiative to communicate with Lin Fan.

"Let's go, the three of us will go together. Whatever it is, let's eat our fill first!"

Lin Fan took Sasuke and Naruto by the hands, one on each side, and walked toward their destination.

After eating and drinking their fill, Naruto went home alone to catch up on sleep, as he hadn't rested well during the journey back.

"Whatever it is, go ahead and say it."

Lin Fan asked Sasuke.

"Lin Fan, I want..."

"Sasuke-kun, you're finally back after all these days!!!"

Just as Sasuke was about to speak, Sakura, who was passing by, lunged at him with heart-shaped eyes.

"Get lost, you troublesome woman. Can't you see I'm talking to Lin Fan right now?"

Sasuke brushed off Sakura's arms as she lunged at him and left the ramen shop with Lin Fan.

Sakura was left standing there, her expression instantly dimming.

She felt like a pickled fish standing beside Sasuke.

Sour, pathetic, and completely redundant.

The two later arrived at a relatively quiet spot downstairs from Lin Fan's apartment.

"Lin Fan, please let me enter your genjutsu space once. I want to increase the strength of my Sharingan."

Sasuke said, steeling his heart.

Ever since the Bell Test, he had been quite interested in the genjutsu Lin Fan used with his Sharingan.

To be able to trap Kakashi so deeply that he knelt and repented in reality—he must have seen something in that illusion that struck the deepest parts of his soul.

And it was on the Night of the Massacre that he had finally awakened his One-Tomoe Sharingan.

It was only natural to realize that upgrading the Sharingan was linked to experiencing immense trauma.

"Have you really thought this through? Are you prepared to accept an outcome like the one Kakashi faced?"

Lin Fan asked Sasuke.

"Yes, I accept it!!!"

Sasuke said with absolute determination.

He wanted to witness the process of Fugaku and Mikoto's deaths all over again.

He had to work hard to evolve his Sharingan and then kill Itachi.

Lin Fan couldn't help but smile slightly.

In truth, according to the original story, Sasuke's right eye had already evolved into a Two-Tomoe Sharingan during his battle against Haku in the Land of Waves.

Now that he had already taught Naruto the Rasengan ahead of schedule, he agreed to Sasuke's request, adhering to the principle of treating his companions in Team 7 equally.

As for what he would evolve into next, that would depend on his own fortune.

Soon, Lin Fan's scarlet three-tomoe pupils suddenly flared to life.

"Sasuke, enter the Night of the Massacre I have personally crafted for you!!!!"

Lin Fan shouted sharply.

Inside the illusion.

It was night, with sparse stars and a bright moon.

The Uchiha Compound was brightly lit, peaceful and serene.

At this moment, a slender youth carrying a long sword and wearing a Konoha forehead protector walked slowly toward the main gate.

"Itachi!!!"

Sasuke, within the illusion, felt his eyes split from the intensity of his rage, shouting through gritted teeth.

The youth donned the cat-faced mask symbolic of the Anbu and vanished from the spot in an instant.

The next second, the masked youth drew his long sword, transforming directly into a bloody Asura returned from hell.

He stabbed everyone he met and killed everyone he encountered, his eyes devoid of the slightest hesitation.

"Ah!"

Soon, the screams and wails within the Uchiha Compound merged into a single chorus.

Severed limbs and arms were scattered everywhere, and the sky above the entire compound was dyed a terrifying blood red.

The youth, having removed his cat mask, was already blinded by bloodlust, the blood of his kin splattered layer upon layer across his face.

"Itachi, why? Why would you do this to our clansmen!!!"

Sasuke, inside the illusion, was already sobbing uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face like rain.

Soon, the relentless Itachi finally encountered his father, Fugaku.

"This should be the future of the Uchiha Clan, a future that should be completely destroyed."

Itachi held his long sword, pointing it at the Fugaku before him.

"Perhaps so. Come find me in my room!"

Poof!!!

A puff of white smoke drifted by, and Fugaku's Shadow Clone vanished instantly.

The next second, Itachi pushed open the door.

He saw Fugaku and Mikoto already kneeling on the ground.

"Father, Mother!"

Itachi said coldly.

"I do not wish to kill my own son. It seems you have already chosen your path!"

Fugaku said with a calm expression.

"Father, Mother, I..."

Itachi quickly drew his gleaming long sword.

"Itachi, I understand. This is the path you have chosen; we do not blame you."

"We only hope you can take good care of Sasuke."

At this moment, Mikoto tilted her forehead up by 45 degrees, a crystal-clear tear flowing from her eye socket.

Itachi hesitated no longer, swinging his long sword to pierce directly through their throats.

In an instant, blood covered the floor, and the couple leaned against each other in death.

"Father, Mother..."

"Itachi, why? I must kill you!"

At this moment, Sasuke's One-Tomoe scarlet pupils suddenly manifested, and his intent to kill surged.
