"A thousand years ago... Kotone..."
Suddenly, the Impure World Reincarnation Kotone before Wuye raised her head again.
She murmured softly, her gaze fixed firmly on Wuye's face. "You... are my child..."
"Yes... I'm your child..."
Wuye spoke in a low voice, his gaze dropping uncontrollably as he did not want to look into her eyes.
The tenderness and excitement within them left him at a loss and unable to act.
"My child..."
Impure World Reincarnation Kotone could not help shedding tears again.
Yet she raised a hand to cover her eyes and said hoarsely, "Do whatever you want. If you want my soul, take it... Don't... don't let anyone threaten you."
"I'm sorry..."
Wuye's eyes reddened.
He suddenly stepped forward and embraced her.
"I'm sorry..."
The Thousand-Pulling Stone blazed with light.
This time, her body did not tremble, because she did not resist his actions at all.
But against Wuye's shoulder, Impure World Reincarnation Kotone's eyes suddenly turned black. A kunai appeared in her hand and stabbed straight at Wuye's heart.
At that instant, Wuye's body shifted sideways by ten centimeters. Even if he were struck, he could easily recover.
How could he possibly fail to guard against Impure World Reincarnation Kotone being controlled again?
But Impure World Reincarnation Kotone's movement suddenly froze.
Her raised hand stopped steadily in midair.
She smiled.
"I will always... love you..."
"My child..."
Before her words had faded, she fiercely drove the kunai in her right hand into her own forehead!
Wuye: "!!!"
His mind was utterly shaken by the sight.
At that very moment, a figure clad in Uchiha attire suddenly emerged outside the Susanoo, the pinwheel Mangekyō Sharingan in his eyes spinning.
"Itachi!"
Uchiha Shisui cried out in alarm.
"Tsukuyomi!"
The next moment, Wuye found himself in an isolated genjutsu space, tightly
