Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu!
Natsuki slammed a palm onto the ground, and the Impure World Reincarnation formation lit up beneath it, quickly enveloping the clone.
The Rune Paper scattered away, and Itachi soon appeared in the field.
Sasuke's emotions stirred faintly.
But Natsuki formed hand seals and completely took control of Itachi, not allowing his consciousness to awaken.
"The circumstances aren't right this time. You'll have to wait until next time to catch up with him, Sasuke."
Sasuke was somewhat puzzled, but he still calmed himself. "Why, Lord Natsuki?"

"And he has no bottom line. He'll use all sorts of strange tricks to achieve his goals."
"You'd better warn Sasuke."

Minato kept the Shadow Nine-Tails' words in mind, intending to remind Sasuke when he had the chance.
While Itachi was still entirely unconscious, Natsuki narrowed his eyes slightly.

had eyes that began as One Tomoe, then Two Tomoe, then Three Tomoe, before directly mutating into Mangekyo.
Whoosh...
Orange-yellow Chakra surged forth, and an armored Susanoo
