Chapter 810: Sasuke Awakens the Mangekyo. Indra's Reincarnation.
"Cough, cough... Sasuke."
Uchiha Itachi's eyes had completely lost their sight. He could only tremblingly raise a hand and keep feeling Second Pillar's face.
It was as though he wanted to imprint Sasuke's appearance into his mind.
He had been too arrogant before, believing that wiping out the Uchiha Clan had been for the sake of his younger brother. But now, it seemed that his own arbitrary decision had only left his brother trapped in guilt and anger.
Even...
All these years...
Sasuke had also borne an invisible rage.
Perhaps Sasuke had suffered the most these past years.
"Get up. I'm not allowing you to die yet!" Second Pillar let Uchiha Itachi's bloodstained hand continue to feel across his face, his voice filled with conflict.
He would not allow Uchiha Itachi to die so soon.
"Cough, cough... I'm afraid I can't get back up anymore." Uchiha Itachi spoke weakly, though his tone was gentle. "Sasuke, I wronged you all these years and dragged you into hatred and torment. I was wrong. I wronged the clan, and I wronged those clansmen I killed. I hope that, once I reach the Pure Land, I'll have a chance to atone for my sins!"
Uchiha Itachi offered his younger brother a sincere confession, and he had truly realized his mistakes.
Now, he wanted to atone, but he no longer had the chance.
Second Pillar said nothing. He had spent all these years pursuing the truth, only to receive an apology and confession. Because of Uchiha Itachi's momentary mistake, things had ended up like this.
"Xuan Yu... Kisame has also left Akatsuki. I hope you'll spare his life. He may never appear in the Shinobi World again. Cough, cough..." After saying that, Uchiha Itachi spoke again.
