Kurenai's Tears

He strolled along the streets of Konoha.

Itachi suddenly stopped and looked up at the cherry blossom trees.

Perhaps he had been away from Konoha for too long.

He felt a sudden pang of melancholy.

He crouched down and picked up a cherry blossom petal.

Scenes from his memories surfaced before his eyes.

Suddenly.

At the street intersection not far away.

Itachi's eyes fell upon Sasuke's retreating figure.

At that moment, Itachi's heart trembled uncontrollably.

"Sasuke..."

"You've grown up..."

As fate would have it, two acquaintances happened to be walking over.

Chuan Yu froze instantly.

"Asuma..."

"Kurenai?"

A moment later, Kurenai suddenly turned her head to look at the two of them.

It had to be said that this woman was truly sensitive.

"Let's go."

Itachi spoke suddenly.

Chuan Yu nodded and turned to leave.

Perhaps sensing something was wrong.

Asuma and Kurenai quickly gave chase.

They walked until they reached a deserted patch of forest before stopping.

Kurenai, who had caught up, suddenly called out to the two of them.

"Aren't you two Konoha ninjas?"

Before Chuan Yu could speak, Itachi turned around directly.

The moment he removed his bell-adorned cloak, Asuma and Kurenai were shocked.

"Miss Kurenai, it's been a long time."

Asuma quickly drew the Flying Swallow from his waist.

"Itachi!"

"You massacred the Uchiha, betrayed the village, and I never expected you to dare show your face in Konoha in broad daylight!"

Itachi smiled faintly. "I'm here to retrieve something. I'll leave once I have it."

"Something? What thing?"

Kurenai asked warily.

"The Fourth Hokage's legacy."

The next second.

As soon as Itachi finished speaking, Asuma charged forward.

Chuan Yu stepped out directly, his long sword from his waist slithering out like water.

Their weapons clashed.

Kurenai behind them suddenly moved!

"Genjutsu!"

In the blink of an eye, Itachi was suddenly enveloped by a large tree.

Kurenai gripped her kunai and climbed out from the stump at the top of the tree.

"It's over, Itachi!"

The next moment.

The two instantly swapped positions, and before they could react.

Kurenai found herself bound to the tree stump.

"Your so-called genjutsu is a disrespect to these Sharingan eyes..."

He kicked Kurenai in the chest.

With a bang.

Kurenai was sent flying directly into the river beside them.

"Kurenai!"

Asuma was extremely anxious, but Chuanyu's attacks were becoming fiercer, and he could only barely fend them off, unable to spare any attention.

Just then.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky.

Behind Chuanyu, Kakashi appeared, holding Raikiri.

However, Chuanyu had already sensed him.

He directly turned and dodged Kakashi's Raikiri, and in the next second, he grabbed Kakashi's wrist.

"Your strength is no less than Itachi's."

"Who exactly are you!"

The ground beneath them suddenly cracked open.

Kakashi's real body, holding a kunai, stabbed directly towards Chuanyu's cheek.

It turned out the Kakashi in front of him was just a clone...

He had been careless...

There was no time to dodge, and the kunai passed directly through the Bell Cloak.

As the Bell Cloak shattered.

Chuanyu's face appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Uchiha Chuanyu! It's you!"

Kakashi's face was filled with shock.

He hadn't expected his former close friend to have now become a member of Akatsuki.

Kurenai, standing on the river, suddenly had tears welling up in her eyes.

Looking at Chuanyu, she couldn't help but let tears fall.

"Shisui..."

Kurenai softly whispered, her lips glistening.

At the same time.

Chuanyu and Asuma were completely bewildered.

What the hell is going on?

Did Shisui do something he shouldn't have when he was alive?

The scene became awkward.

Kurenai suddenly walked towards Chuanyu.

This completely confused Chuanyu.

He quickly looked at Itachi, hoping he could give him some advice.

To his surprise, Itachi completely ignored Chuanyu's call.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Chuanyu immediately prepared to slip away.

But Chuanyu knew that Sasori and Deidara, those two bastards, were watching nearby.

If he left now, Konan would probably be wary of Itachi and him in the future.

Itachi sighed helplessly.

The next second, his Three Tomoe spun and changed.

The moment the Mangekyo appeared.

Kakashi panicked.

"Kurenai! Stop! Neither of you look into his eyes!"

Itachi looked at Kakashi with a blank expression.

The duel of genjutsu between the two quietly began.

"You are not an Uchiha clansman, and it's already very good that you can wield this eye to this extent..."

"But let me tell you the true power of the Sharingan..."

"Die!"

In the next second, Kakashi was directly plunged into the center of a red world.

Countless Itachis drew their long swords and repeatedly pierced Kakashi's body.

Screams echoed endlessly.

[Ding! Itachi's favorability with the host has reached 500 points! Combat triggers incentive rewards!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Dojutsu: Tsukuyomi!]

Good heavens.

This new function the system gave was really quite good.

It was like gambling on the chance to randomly borrow the opponent's skills.

A Divine Skill!

Kakashi finally succumbed and collapsed on the ground.

At this very moment, a mighty man suddenly descended from the sky!

The water's surface immediately rippled.

When the spray subsided, standing before them was Might Guy, carrying Kakashi.

"To injure Kakashi to this extent..."

"Uchiha Chuanyu..."

"I didn't get to fight you in Konoha, but now is a good opportunity!"

"You will ultimately be judged by my youth!"

"Asuma! Kurenai! Take Kakashi and leave!"

Might Guy gathered his strength, ready to strike.

At this moment, he decided to have a great battle with Chuanyu.

Suddenly, Itachi began to cough violently.

Opening his palm, a trace of blood appeared.

Perhaps it was due to constantly using the Sharingan, and having just used Tsukuyomi, Itachi's body had lost its health.

Seeing this, Chuanyu lost the will to fight.

He pulled Itachi and turned to leave.

Behind them, Might Guy trembled with rage.

Just as he was about to pursue, Asuma and Kurenai stopped him.

In the hospital.

Kakashi had fallen into a deep coma.

Team 7's three members came to check on him.

Upon seeing Kakashi's condition, Sasuke immediately understood.

"This is Tsukuyomi?!"

How could he forget the pain he endured in his youth.

Suddenly, an idea surged into his mind.

After some missions and training, Sasuke felt he was no longer an ordinary person.

He had learned Chidori and a large number of ninjutsu.

Even if he went to find Itachi, he might not necessarily lose to him.

The most important thing was to prove his strength to Itachi, and if possible, to avenge the Tsukuyomi!

With this thought, Sasuke turned and ran out.

"Sasuke! What are you doing!"

Naruto, unaware of the situation, quickly chased after him.

Such innocent bonds...

You two deserve to be beaten...

They stopped in a hidden corner of Konoha.

Chuanyu helped Itachi sit down.

Meanwhile, Sasori and Deidara, who had been following the two, felt a wave of frustration.

In their eyes, it was as if Itachi had deliberately gone easy on them.

If they had acted sooner, those three Konoha Jonin would have been dead already.

"I think they still have lingering feelings for Konoha,"

Deidara said sarcastically.

"Doesn't Itachi have a younger brother? It's probably related to him."

Sasori said indifferently.

"Tch! I don't believe it! I don't believe Itachi and that new kid anymore! Not unless Itachi lays a hand on his brother!"

Just as Deidara finished his complaint.

The figures of Sasuke and Naruto suddenly appeared nearby in the distance...

Sensing Sasuke's chakra, Chuan Yu suddenly revealed a wicked smile.

The moment he stood up, Itachi suddenly grabbed him.

"Chuan Yu..."

"Don't be too rough..."
