He just told the truth about the genocide, and what he got in exchange was not moved and trusted but Amaterasu.
But I also understand that a person who has been carrying a secret for so many years is suddenly exposed by a twelve-year-old brat. Even if the other person is a friend of Sasuke, Itachi's first reaction must be suspicion.
I wonder if this person is a test sent by Danzo, and what his purpose is.
"Itachi Uchiha, that's it."
Naruto looked at Itachi Uchiha and said calmly, "I know you have done a lot for Sasuke."
"But I'm also Sasuke's friend."
"We are not enemies."
Itachi covered his right eye, which was still aching, and re-examined Naruto in front of him through his increasingly blurred left eye.
Just now Naruto expressed his inference without hesitation.
If this insight is really out of protection for Sasuke, then having such a friend by Sasuke's side may be the only thing Sasuke can have after losing everything.
"Naruto Uzumaki How much do you know?"
Itachi spoke slowly, and this time his voice no longer had the cold murderous intent before, but instead contained a calmness after exhaustion.
"I will become Hokage in the future."
Naruto looked directly into Itachi's eyes. "In addition, Sasuke is my friend, so I know him better."
"Konoha will need Sasuke's power from now on."
"So I can't let him destroy himself out of hatred and being led astray."
"Whether it is as his future Hokage, or as his current friend."
Itachi was silent.
In the distance, Kisame and Jiraiya are still fighting fiercely.
After a moment, Itachi slowly straightened up and put down the hand covering his left eye. Blood stains were still flowing on his left cheek.
He looked at Naruto carefully again.
Naruto's tone and eyes when he said he wanted to protect Sasuke were not fake.
Itachi was happy that Sasuke could have such a friend.
Happy from the bottom of my heart.
"So, while they are still fighting and no one is around, let's talk?"
"What do you want to talk about?" Itachi asked.
"Before this, how far can your eyes see? Itachi Uchiha."
Itachi Uchiha was stunned.
This sentence was asked by him.
But when it came out of Naruto's mouth at this moment, it had a completely different meaning.
"Naruto Uzumaki, have you done any investigation on Mangekyō Sharingan?"
There was a trace of uncertainty in Itachi's voice.
"Did some research."
Naruto nodded without denying. "Mangekyō Sharingan is above Three-Tomoe Sharingan, but Mangekyō Sharingan has side effects. After one use, the vision will permanently decrease until complete blindness."
"But as long as you transplant Mangekyō Sharingan, your direct brother, you can evolve into Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan."
"For example, Madara Uchiha's eyes."
"So I can roughly guess your final arrangement for Sasuke."
Itachi Uchiha did not interrupt Naruto throughout the whole process.
But when Naruto said Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, his fingers tightened unconsciously.
If it was said that Naruto's insight into analyzing the truth behind the genocide had already made him wary.
So now the fact that Naruto revealed the final plan that he had hidden deep in his heart almost knocked him to the ground.
"Since you already know my final arrangements for Sasuke, what do you want from talking to me alone now?"
"Sasuke is my friend."
"But the mental stimulation required to advance to Mangekyō Sharingan, you know, will inevitably be accompanied by ideological extremes."
"I'm worried that he will go astray, so I want to have a chat with you first to confirm your true position on this matter."
Naruto shook his head.
Itachi Uchiha heard this and let out a deep breath from the bottom of his heart.
It turns out that Naruto has said so much, and after such a big circle, the final destination is still Sasuke.
He didn't ask for anything, and he didn't exchange this information for any benefits. He was just worried that Sasuke would go astray, so he confirmed with himself the last insurance of the entire arrangement.
"The relationship between you and Sasuke is really good."
There was a hint of relief in Itachi's tone.
"Uchiha Sasuke That stinky guy always bullied me before, now it's my turn to bully him."
Naruto smiled, with a hint of familiarity in his tone that he had experienced with Sasuke.
Itachi Uchiha nodded.
He can now be completely sure that Naruto's feelings for Sasuke are real and are not for the purpose of disguise or exchange of interests.
This is the kind of complicated friendship that only exists between two people who have disliked each other since childhood.
Itachi Uchiha made a seal, and with a burst of white smoke, a black Crow flew out, and then stopped quietly on his shoulder.
"Put this away."
Itachi handed Crow to Naruto.
"If one day Sasuke really goes astray, it will change Sasuke."
Naruto glanced at Crow's left eye.
There is a Mangekyō Sharingan in the left eye, but the pattern is different from Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan pattern.
Naruto knows whose this is.
Mangekyō Sharingan of Shisui Uchiha.
It contains the most powerful illusion - Kotoamatsukami!
Kotoamatsukami can directly rewrite a person's will without being noticed.
Itachi Uchiha gives Crow and the eye inside to Naruto.
"Mangekyō Sharingan?"
Naruto didn't ask any questions, he took out a blank Sealing Scroll from the ninja bag, spread it out, made several Sealing Technique seals with his hands, and then sealed the Crow together with the Mangekyō Sharingan from Shisui Uchiha into the scroll.
After Crow was sucked into the scroll, it turned into an ink rune printed on the paper. Naruto rolled up the scroll and put it back into the ninja bag.
After doing all this, Naruto raised his head and found that Itachi Uchiha was looking in the direction of Kisame and Jiraiya on the battlefield on the water in the distance.
At this time, the water level of the artificial lake created by Kisame has been lowered by more than half, and Gamabunta's sword is splitting the last round of Thousand Feeding Sharks's sharks.
"Thank you for thinking about Sasuke."
"He is lucky to have you as a friend."
Itachi withdrew his gaze from the direction of the battlefield and looked at Naruto again.
Naruto said nothing, just waved his hand towards Itachi.
Itachi Uchiha nodded, said no more, turned around and jumped in the direction of Kisame.
After a few ups and downs, he jumped out of the woods and came to the lake.
The moment his figure appeared on the edge of the battlefield, Kisame immediately withdrew the two sharks that were fighting with Gamabunta.
"Kisame, let's go."
"Ah? Mr. Itachi, don't you want to fight?"
"I haven't fed Samehada yet."
Kisame took back Samehada and put it on his shoulders. Although he asked this question, his movements had completely stopped.
"Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is very strange and can be immune to my illusion."
"Coupled with the fact that Jiraiya, one of Sannin, is beside us, the longer this battle drags on, the worse it will be for us."
"Konoha's reinforcements may arrive at any time, and we don't have enough time to spend with them here."
Itachi Uchiha tell the current situation.
"Okay, Mr. Itachi."
