Before the Sharingan, He Only Smiled

Konoha, the territory of the Uchiha.

Gorō Satoru stood there, his Azure eyes gazing quietly into the distance.

Six Eyes is no joke; he could see the two people having a secret conversation clearly from a great distance.

Deep in the woods.

"We'll make our move tonight, "Uchiha Itachi said calmly.

The masked man opposite him glanced at him.

"Okay, as we agreed before, I'll help you."

"Then let's do as agreed." Uchiha Itachi turned around, his gaze falling into the depths of the forest.

The Masked Man crossed his arms over his chest; the mask completely covered his face, preventing him from revealing any emotion.

"I'm helping you wipe out the Uchiha, not just for revenge, but for other reasons as well."

"Just pretend you didn't see these things."

"You're telling me not to use my Sharingan to record your actions, "Uchiha Itachi said without turning his head.

"Yes, that's proof that I spared your brother's life." The Masked Man nodded.

A brat without Sharingan is useless to me.

"So I can rest assured now?" Uchiha Itachi's voice was completely unreadable.

"Besides trusting you, I have no other way to go."

"If you ever really reach the end of your rope, you can come to me," the Masked Man added.

"Where are you?" Uchiha Itachi asked softly.

Her name is Xiao.

Gorō Satoru withdrew his gaze, a few strands of his short white hair falling down.

Tonight.

The timing was perfect.

After he passed the message to Shisui Uchiha...

He turned and went into Uchiha Fugaku's study.

The two of them closed the door and talked for quite a while.

That conversation stayed with Uchiha Fugaku for many years.

Even after so much time has passed, he can still clearly recall the radiant boy in the study.

And then there were those methods he mentioned that sounded like fantasy, but in practice, every single one of them was feasible.

He could never forget the feeling of being stunned.

Perhaps genius really has nothing to do with time or age.

There are always some people who are born to break the mold and the rules.

Night falls.

"You're leaving this to me?" Shisui Uchiha asked, puzzled.

Does he have other things to do?

Why did you suddenly say something like that?

Gorō Satoru tossed his tousled hair and grinned broadly.

"Didn't I mention it to you already?"

There's still one Masked Person we haven't dealt with, so...

"You go and ransack the house, I'll handle holding them back!"

Shisui Uchiha's expression immediately turned ugly.

No.

"You never mentioned it at all."

He didn't utter a single word about such a big matter.

He only found out about this incident now.

Shisui's gaze grew increasingly dangerous, and his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

His body seemed to be emanating black mist.

Gorō Satoru's raised lips froze on his face.

Um?

This is bad, Shisui about to turn evil?

Even in this state, he still recklessly continues his antics.

Hahaha...

"Then let's say I've said it now."

Shisui Uchiha tried his best to suppress the fire in his heart.

Tell yourself that this person is the founder of their base.

You can't hit him, you can't hit him.

I endured it, I held back.

After a long while, he finally opened his mouth.

"If that's the case, let me stall him."

"You can't afford to make any mistakes now."

Since he specifically mentioned this Masked Person, this man's abilities must be extraordinary.

So Shisui Uchiha immediately proposed this plan: to stop Gorō Satoru from going off on his own.

He single-handedly built the entire new Uchiha base, and everyone there relied on him fervently.

He is now the pillar of the entire base; if the pillar collapses, everything built before will be destroyed.

He can't afford to get into trouble right now.

Gorō Satoru in hand, let out a merciless laugh without hesitation.

"You're kidding me!"

"With only one Mangekyo left, you can only fool kids now."

"For example, it might work to fool Itachi."

"I have a way of dealing with that Masked Person."

Shisui Uchiha had a terrible headache, looking at Gorō Satoru in front of him who kept mocking him.

"Do you have your own way?"

"Who do you plan to send to make the move?"

"Don't tell me you're going by yourself?"

"And who exactly is that Masked Person?"

What is his skill level?

Why did he get involved?

Gorō Satoru looked at Shisui Uchiha, who had turned into a walking encyclopedia of questions, with a complicated expression.

He shook his head and let out a long sigh, as if reciting a line from a script.

"Time is a scary thing."

"In the blink of an eye, a promising young man can be turned into an old woman."

"I really didn't expect this..."

In the blink of an eye.

Shisui Uchiha's face immediately darkened, and his lips twitched.

He gritted his teeth and cursed silently to himself.

Who ruined all of this for him?

If he hadn't been scammed so many times, would he be so long-winded?

We've had enough laughing and joking.

Gorō Satoru wiped the smile off his face completely, and his entire demeanor changed.

His expression turned cold, and his tone became quite serious.

"That's settled then."

"You have other work to do."

"The two scrolls I gave you are enough for you to smoothly relocate the Uchiha Clan and stage the fake death."

"With your Genjutsu and the help of your father and the others, you'll have more than enough to fool Itachi."

Shisui Uchiha looked helplessly at Gorō Satoru in front of him.

Half a day passed.

He slowly nodded, his tone returning to calm.

"Okay, kid."

"Since you put it that way, then we'll do as you say."

He now somewhat regrets how swiftly he gouged out his eyes.

Otherwise, he might have been able to put in more effort today.

However, he still chose to challenge Nobunaga Gorō Satoru this time.

This person is mostly unreliable.

But sometimes, he really is someone you can trust with your back.

Konoha, the Uchiha Clan Compound.

When Gorō Satoru saw that the Masked Person Obito Uchiha, a slight smile appeared on his face.

They were just wondering how to separate and lure Obito Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi away.

He was also dressed in that Spiral Mask and black robe.

A mysterious person bumps into another mysterious person.

Everyone here is a mystery today.

How perfect!

If he can stall them for a while, his task for today will be complete!

Gorō Satoru's lips curled up slightly, but his heart remained quite calm.

He calmly observed Obito Uchiha had already arrived.

He chose the perfect moment and threw out a few Shuriken with just the right amount of force.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Several Shuriken, gleaming coldly Obito Uchiha.

who?

Obito Uchiha's gaze suddenly sharpened.

He easily dodged the several Shuriken thrown at tricky angles.

He soon spotted the culprit.

A person dressed exactly like him was fleeing rapidly into the distance.

Obito Uchiha's expression tightened, and he pushed off with his feet to give chase.

A mysterious person dressed exactly like him immediately put him on alert.

who is he?

How did they end up here?

And why are you dressed so similarly to him?

"Kamui!" Obito Uchiha silently activated his Ninjutsu, disappearing from his spot in an instant.

This is a unique Ninjutsu possessed only by his Mangekyō Sharingan.

It allows you to throw yourself and anything else into your own unique alternate dimension.

Although it takes a while to inhale, the ability to inhale and release allows for quick movement without any problem.

Gorō Satoru looked at Obito Uchiha, who had suddenly appeared and blocked his way, and chuckled to himself.

Unexpectedly, this outfit brought such an unexpected benefit, easily luring Obito Uchiha over.

Obito Uchiha coldly at Gorō Satoru.

He exuded an overwhelming killing intent.

"Who are you?"

Gorō Satoru's lips curled slightly, but his Azure eyes remained devoid of any emotion.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" he said in a rather light tone.

"And why are you here?"

Obito Uchiha cold, and he was too lazy to waste any more words.

He swiftly swung the chain at Gorō Satoru.

But as someone who's also skilled at manipulating space, he's not so easily entangled by chains.

With a simple, short-distance movement, he was on the other side of Obito Uchiha in the blink of an eye.

"So easily flustered?" Gorō Satoru said calmly.

Obito Uchiha on the other side suddenly paused.

That's strange.

That moment just now looked incredibly familiar.

It feels like I've seen it somewhere before.

Is it because they are all Space-Time Ninjutsu?

He must have just used Space-Time Ninjutsu.

It's somewhat similar in design to its own Kamui, Kamui.

but.

Even his Kamui has its limitations when activated.

For example, it takes Kamui a relatively long time to absorb himself.

Moreover, even the Flying Thunder God Technique requires corresponding Cursed Technique to be used in conjunction with it.

But when he moved just now, it seems like he didn't leave any trace.

How did you do that?

Did he not see clearly just now?

Obito Uchiha Mangekyo suddenly lit up, his gaze locking onto Gorō Satoru's Azure eyes.

Gorō Satoru isn't wearing his blindfold today.

He just casually put on a mask that wouldn't obstruct his view.

So at that moment, he met Obito Uchiha's gaze directly.

"Fool." Obito Uchiha scoffed.

He hadn't expected that someone would actually dare to make Sharingan.

That's fine, it saves him the trouble.

He still had other things to do.

"Genjutsu." Obito Uchiha uttered two cold words.

The Mangekyo slowly began to spin, and the Genjutsu was cast in an instant.

Genjutsu can cause the opponent to see a terrifying illusion for a fleeting moment, then immobilize them in place.

"Now tell me who you are," he said in a low voice.

The words had barely left his mouth.

Gorō Satoru immediately stopped moving and became completely quiet.

The black robe billowed back and forth in the wind.

"I am..." he slowly began.

Obito Uchiha stared at him coldly, patiently waiting for the answer.

What will he say?

Suddenly, out of the blue.

"Pfft!" Gorō Satoru out laughing.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."

I couldn't hold it in any longer, how about we do it again?

Beneath the mask, the corners of his mouth turned up, but his expression didn't change much.

His posture was relaxed and casual, yet he exuded a subtle coldness.

Obito Uchiha stared at him in utter astonishment.

How is that possible?

He actually...?

He was completely unaffected after making eye contact with Mangekyo?

This is outrageous!

Although his Mangekyo wasn't specifically for Genjutsu.

But the Sharingan is something that was born for Genjutsu techniques).

It inherently possesses ridiculously strong abilities such as replication, hypnosis, and observation.

When fighting someone with Sharingan eye techniques, the most you can do is cut off their line of sight to avoid being hit.

This was the first time he had encountered someone Sharingan and didn't react.

How did this guy do that?

Obito Uchiha into his eyes and tried again.

After casting the Genjutsu, the man in black remained calm and composed, showing no change whatsoever.

This time he was certain that the man in black before him indeed possessed the ability to ignore the power of the Sharingan.

How did you do that?

Who exactly is he?

In an instant.

All sorts of questions flooded my mind at once.

This time, Obito Uchiha didn't press him about his identity; he simply asked about his purpose.

He had a gut feeling that the man in black in front of him was quite difficult to deal with.

If you were to fight him, the outcome would be uncertain.

In that case, he wouldn't be able to finish the Uchiha Clan Massacre.

He looked intently at Gorō Satoru.

"What brings you here?"

"I have no interest in fighting you as long as you don't get in my way."

Gorō Satoru shook his head slightly, a few strands of hair fluttering in the wind.

What a pity.

He wouldn't want to waste his time here if it weren't for the need to drag things out.

But we can't just let you go now.

Gorō Satoru's eyes darted around, and he curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.

"That won't do," he said calmly.

"I'm here to avenge my sister."

It's time for Hatake Satoru-ko to step up and contribute his remaining energy.

His current identity is Hatake Gojo.

Kakashi Hatake and Hatake Satoru-ko Hatake Gojo.

???

Your sister?

A hint of confusion flashed in Obito Uchiha's eyes.

Which one?

He killed quite a few people, and it's unclear which one was his sister.

However, he quickly composed himself.

Okay, let's do it this way then.

Let's show him what he's got!

He was also quite curious as to what this man, dressed in similar attire to his own, was planning to do at this time.

Are there any other plans?
