Is He Really That Man?
Uchiha paused Obito, keeping everyone in suspense.
Seeing the skepticism in Itachi's eyes, he smiled and said, "The reason I can maintain my youthful vitality is thanks to Hashirama's power."
As he spoke, Obito Uchiha Obito his hand.
Suddenly, a tender green sapling sprouted rapidly from his palm.
This sapling, fueled by his Chakra, grew rapidly and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a large tree standing before the two of them.
Upon seeing this, Uchiha's pupils contracted slightly.
"This is... Wood Release... Bloodline Limit?"
"You know quite a lot, kid."
Uchiha chuckled Obito amusement.
Itachi ignored him and instead looked at the towering tree in front of him with suspicion and uncertainty.
This tree exudes a vibrant aura of Chakra and life force.
Uchiha could clearly sense its vibrant life force.
This is absolutely the legendary Wood Release Kekkei Genkai; there's no way it could be fake.
The power of Wood Release Kekkei Genkai was exclusive to the First Hokage, Hashirama; this is probably known throughout the entire Ninja World.
But why does the man before me possess such power?
"If I remember correctly, the power of the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai was lost with the passing of the First Hokage..."
Uchiha was utterly shocked.
He felt a sense of apprehension towards the man before him who possessed both the power of the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai and the Sharingan bloodline limit of the Uchiha Clan.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Obito released the power of Wood Release and then explained, "Hashirama is known as the 'God of Shinobi' by later generations. Besides Wood Release and Sage Jutsu, his most powerful abilities include his miraculous Medical Ninjutsu."
"The reason why Hashirama was able to possess such immense vitality and masterful Medical Ninjutsu is all due to his Wood Release Kekkei Genkai."
"This power is the secret to my eternal youth."
Uchiha 'Obito explanation seemed flawless.
After hearing all this, Itachi was even more unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
However, he still insisted that the man in front of him was unlikely to be Madara Uchiha.
This time, however, Itachi did not express his suspicions.
He now wanted to figure out what this man, who claimed to be Madara Uchiha, was trying to do in Konoha.
However, before he could speak, Uchiha Obito first.
He looked at Itachi.
His gaze went straight into the depths of Itachi's eyes.
"You must be very curious as to why I suddenly returned to Konoha, right?"
"That's right, what is your purpose?"
Itachi immediately nodded and asked.
"Hehe..."
"As the ancestor of the Uchiha Clan, isn't it normal for him to come back and see the village he founded and his clan?"
Uchiha Obito.
"If that's the case, why don't you just go back to the Uchiha Clan's territory and see the other clan members?"
Itachi immediately asked again.
This time, however, Uchiha Obito not answer his question, but instead his eyes darkened.
It was as if she had remembered something unpleasant.
He gave a soft hum.
It sounds rather dismissive.
He then said, "You have an appointment; go keep it first."
"If you want to know about my past, come find me at the back of the mountain."
After saying that, Uchiha Obito Uchiha's reaction, activated Kamui, and disappeared into thin air.
As Itachi watched the spatial vortex slowly dissipate, his emotions remained unsettled for a long time, his eyes flashing with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.
"What kind of power is this?"
"His aura was indeed very powerful, even frightening..."
Itachi glanced at his arm.
He then realized that he had been trembling slightly the whole time.
And this feeling has only ever occurred to me in front of one person.
That man's name is Lin Yan.
"So, is he really Madara Uchiha?"
In order to find out the other party's true identity and purpose in returning to Konoha, Uchiha decided that he must find an opportunity to meet the other party again.
Lin Yan not only heard the conversation between Uchiha and his father, but also the conversation between him and Uchiha Obito.
But at that moment, he said nothing and did nothing.
He simply looked at Uchiha Itachi with a half-smile, "Is the matter resolved?"
These words seemed to have a hidden meaning, which made Uchiha's heart skip a beat.
However, he didn't say much, only gave a soft "hmm" and nodded casually.
"Brother Itachi, you've been gone for so long... We're starving!"
Naruto slumped over the table, speaking weakly.
Sasuke also looked longingly at his older brother.
There was no other way; the two little ones insisted on waiting for Itachi to return before everyone could eat together.
"I'm sorry, Sasuke, Naruto, I've taken up your time."
"The meat is here, let's eat."
After he finished speaking, he also politely looked at Lin Yan.
"Two more bottles of wine, please."
Lin Yan smiled.
Hearing this, Itachi was slightly taken aback, while Naruto asked in surprise, "Uncle Lin, do you want to drink?"
Let's all have a drink together.
Lin Yan still looked at Uchiha with a half-smile.
"No, children shouldn't drink alcohol."
Sasuke responded at this moment.
After he finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at his older brother.
Although Itachi was older than him, he was still a minor, so according to the village rules, he was not allowed to drink alcohol.
"What's wrong with doing it only once in a while?"
"I won't tell your parents."
Lin Yan spoke with a hint of encouragement.
Sasuke and Naruto stared wide-eyed, unsure how to respond.
They also noticed that Lin Yan had been staring at Itachi, and at that moment they all subconsciously looked up at Itachi.
Itachi was actually a little tempted.
I've heard that alcohol can help you drown your sorrows.
He's grown up and still doesn't know what this tastes like.
However, considering there were two other guys here who were much younger than him...
As the older brother, I should set a good example for my younger brother.
Children absolutely cannot drink alcohol.
Itachi shook his head, rejecting Lin Yan's suggestion.
"If you want to drink, you can drink it yourself. Lin Yan, we're not drinking."
"Is that so? Then I won't force you."
Lin Yan smiled gently and didn't press the other party any further.
He waved to the waiter, signaling for two bottles of wine for him.
His every word and action was so casual and unrestrained, and he looked carefree.
At this moment, Itachi suddenly realized for the first time how carefree and easy Lin Yan's life was.
When the wine was served, Lin Yan smiled and opened it in front of everyone. After smelling it, she drank it down in one gulp, and then revealed a satisfied smile.
This scene once again made Itachi envious of him.
"A life without worries is truly wonderful..."
As he pondered this, his gaze couldn't help but fall on the wine pot on the table.
