Second Pillar listened to the other man's account, a sense of absurdity rising within him. He did not believe a word of it.
"Do you think I'd believe such a ridiculous lie?" Second Pillar opened his Mangekyō Sharingan and stared straight at Uchiha Obito.

Second Pillar watched him leave, yet a lingering sense of discord remained in his heart.
He had always remembered what Uchiha Shunichi had said before Uchiha Itachi died. Though he knew the masked man's words were very likely true, Second Pillar still could not bring himself to believe them.

Uchiha Shunichi was also unable to sleep that night. At that moment, he held a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan in his hands, his expression deeply conflicted.
Uchiha Shunichi did not know
