Hashirama Cells? Godzilla Cells? Uchiha Itachi's Choice!

Itachi weakly opened his eyes. He felt as if someone had inserted chopsticks into his head and then stirred it violently. His whole head felt like it was being stabbed with paste.

The ceiling that came into view made a hint of confusion appear in the eyes of the weasel lying on the bed.

Where am I?

His memory was still stuck on the last moment of his battle with Orochimaru.

He held Sasuke tightly by his side, his mind on edge, guarding against Orochimaru's sneak attack.

Sasuke!!??

Itachi seemed to remember something, and suddenly sat up in bed, completely disregarding his still-unrecovered body, and nervously looked around.

"Sasuke! Where's Sasuke?"

"Don't worry, he's safe now."

The familiar voice coming from outside the door instantly relaxed his tense nerves.

A look of delight appeared in Itachi's eyes.

This sound is...

Future Bro!

Itachi immediately turned his head from the bed to look.

Sure enough, upon seeing that familiar figure, all the tension, panic, and confusion in his heart vanished!

Uchiha Mirai! That's the legend of the Uchiha Clan!

It was also Uchiha Itachi's spiritual belief.

With Brother Future around, anything is possible.

This is Itachi's life motto.

Suddenly, Itachi seemed to remember something and lowered his head in shame.

"Future Brother... I... I..."

"I'm sorry! I let Orochimaru escape!"

The weasel's face turned bright red.

While his father and brother fought a fierce battle against the enemy at the front, he stayed behind to protect his younger brother and clansmen.

Even though he tried his best, Orochimaru still managed to escape.

He felt he had failed to protect his clan and had brought shame upon the Uchiha Mirai.

"Don't say that, you've already done very well..."

Uchiha Mirai's lips twitched slightly.

Is this considered Versailles?

Orochimaru possesses absolute Kage Level strength, and currently, he hasn't undergone much soul splitting, making him more resistant to Genjutsu compared to when the two encountered each other in the original story.

Even so, he was forced to flee in a sorry state by Itachi.

This record is truly terrifying!

Keep in mind, Itachi is only 11 years old right now!

Compared to the original story where he awakened his Mangekyo Sharingan, this was a full two and a half years earlier!

Hearing Uchiha Mirai's words of comfort, Itachi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Gazing at Itachi on the bed, Uchiha Mirai calmly asked, "Itachi, you've awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, haven't you?"

"Um."

Itachi nodded, choosing not to hide it.

"My two eyes each house a different Dōjutsu; the Dōjutsu in my left eye is called Tsukuyomi, and the Dōjutsu in my right eye is called Amaterasu."

Itachi narrated in a clear, flowing voice, revealing without reservation the Dōjutsu of his two eyes.

A hint of relief appeared in Uchiha Mirai's eyes.

He already knew about Itachi's Dōjutsu, but the fact that Itachi was willing to tell him about Dōjutsu without reservation proved Itachi's loyalty to him.

After all, the Mangekyo Sharingan's Dōjutsu are of great importance to the Uchiha Clan, and they would never reveal them to anyone they don't trust.

To this day, no Uchiha Clan member fully knows his Mangekyo Sharingan Dōjutsu.

"Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi? Very powerful Dōjutsu. No wonder they forced Orochimaru to retreat, but..."

Uchiha Mirai paused, her eyes filled with worry as she examined Itachi's body.

"What's wrong, Future Bro?"

Itachi was a little nervous, with a vague sense of foreboding in his heart. He looked up at Uchiha Mirai with worry.

Uchiha Mirai sighed.

"Your body isn't well adapted to this power. The Mangekyo Sharingan's immense power is also a curse. I think you should already feel the pressure from these eyes, right?"

After saying that, Uchiha Mirai into Itachi's eyes.

Itachi fell silent.

Indeed, his eyes were radiating a chilling power that was subtly altering his body.

This change, naturally, did not escape the eyes of Uchiha Mirai.

The Yin Release power represented by the Sharingan is too strong; ordinary Yang Release bodies simply cannot withstand it.

Excessive use will cause blindness, which is a manifestation of the imbalance of the physical body's Yang Release.

In the original work, Itachi awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan at the age of 13.

He suffered from illness for a long time afterward, and only died at the age of 21 after witnessing Sasuke grow up.

The current Itachi is only 11 years old.

Having lost two and a half years' worth of savings, his physical Yang Release is weaker than in the original story.

This also means that his lifespan will inevitably be shorter than in the original story.

"What should I do...?"

The weasel's voice was hoarse.

If it were Future Brother, perhaps he would have a way to change the current situation.

This thought crossed Uchiha Itachi's mind.

"The solution is simple."

Uchiha Mirai said in a deep voice, "Since your body is not strong enough to withstand this power, then strengthen your body so that it can bear it."

At this point, Uchiha Mirai's eyes suddenly turned serious as she stared at Uchiha Itachi.

"As for methods to strengthen the body, I have two; the choice is yours."

After speaking, Uchiha Mirai raised her palm, and two strange substances the size of an infant's fist appeared in her palm.

The two objects are completely different colors.

The palm of his right hand was entirely white, resembling some kind of peculiar lump of flesh.

The palm of his left hand is dark brown, and its texture resembles that of some kind of plant.

One black and one white filled Uchiha Itachi's eyes.
