Chapter 4 I examine myself three times a day: I killed too early.
Chapter 4 I examine myself three times a day: I killed too early.
The sun slowly moved across the sky, spreading boundless light and heat to the ninja world below.
The Land of Fire truly lives up to its reputation as the most prosperous place in the ninja world; its dense forests are everywhere, no wonder it's called Konoha Village.
Uchiha An lay lurking atop a large tree, staring blankly at the tree's shadow slowly shifting on the ground, his heart feeling empty.
He's starting to regret it.
I acted too impulsively last night and did things without thinking!
They shouldn't have killed Sasuke like that!
Now that he's calmed down, he feels a bit regretful.
Sasuke got off too cheaply!
He should first cut off Sasuke's limbs, then gouge out his eyes, deafen him, cut off his tongue, turn him into a human pig, and keep him in a jar!
Ah, no, let's not gouge out Sasuke's eyes yet. Maybe this kind of stimulation will even get us a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan!
The shock of annihilating his clan was so great that it took that cold-blooded brat to unleash the first tomoe, clearly showing that he and his brother are cut from the same cloth and have no feelings for their clansmen!
These two brothers are both bastards!
These beastly clansmen should be kept in jars!
Then take the jar to show Itachi Uchiha!
By the way, I'd like to ask Itachi, with his great magnanimity, did he feel very satisfied seeing Sasuke like this?
What a pity!
I acted too impulsively last night, my anger got the better of me, and I killed Sasuke in a fit of rage. This great plan has now completely fallen apart.
That shouldn't be!
You must remain calm and composed in the future!
Uchiha An constantly reflected on his behavior, examining himself three times a day.
The Uchiha clan is inherently a group with extreme emotions, and under the influence of the ultimate Yin Release chakra of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha An felt that there was nothing wrong with his thoughts.
Revenge is a matter of course, and no one can stop him!
What constitutes revenge?
Of course, we should make our enemies suffer!
Make him suffer terribly!
Make him regret his actions!
To achieve this goal, Uchiha An is capable of anything!
Uchiha Itachi, he won't let him get away with this!
He won't let Obito Uchiha go either!
He will not let the two masterminds behind the scenes, the Third Hokage and Danzo, go!
He will not let any of those accomplices in Konoha Village go unpunished!
As Uchiha was lost in thought, a group of children came running towards them from afar. The one surrounded in the center, with blond hair, was clearly Naruto Uzumaki.
An turned his head to look at the sun high in the sky and silently praised it in his heart.
Konohamaru and his gang are really efficient; they managed to lure Naruto out so quickly. No wonder he's the grandson of the Third Hokage.
If someone else were to do this, they would most likely be alerted by the Anbu protecting the Nine-Tails.
But now, with three generations of powerful figures in the village, who would dare to investigate his youngest grandson?
Ninjas are ultimately just dogs kept by those in power!
Uchiha An's lips curled into a cold smile beneath his mask as he silently slid down and vanished into the jungle.
A group of children surrounded Naruto and rushed to the base of the big tree. After looking around and confirming that this was the mission location mentioned by the Anbu, they cheered, jumped, and shouted.
"Ah, we're here! This is the big tree!"
"Mission accomplished! Mission accomplished!"
"Where's the ninja master? We're here to turn in our mission!"
"Huh? What mission?" Naruto Uzumaki scratched his head, looking at Konohamaru with a puzzled expression. "Didn't you guys say we were going to play games outside the village?"
"Idiot! We can't alert the target!" Konohamaru angrily punched the friend next to him who was shouting the loudest, then turned around, scratched the back of his head, and laughed at Naruto.
"Haha... Brother Naruto, we're talking about ninja games!"
Naruto sensed something was amiss, but he didn't have many friends and was quite disliked in class. Since someone was willing to play with him, he was happy to oblige. He immediately pretended not to know and went along with it, asking:
"Oh, so, how do you plan to play?"
"Uh..." Konohamaru was speechless, unsure how to answer. He could only look around, trying to find the ANBU ninja who had issued the mission, but there wasn't a single one in sight.
He didn't know if this was another test, and was about to make up some lies to appease Naruto when he heard a soft sound of a weapon piercing his body. Then he saw a figure fall from the big tree next to him, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a lot of dust. Judging from the figure, it was clearly dressed as an ANBU member.
"Ah!" Konohamaru was startled. In his panic, he heard a series of muffled groans, and a series of corpses emerged from all directions, smearing blood all over the ground, and the scene was immediately filled with the smell of blood.
"Ah! It's the enemy!"
Compared to the kids like Konohamaru, Naruto, the half-baked ninja, reacted much faster. He pulled out a kunai, held it in his hand, and assumed a defensive stance.
In the world of ninjas, a slight difference in strength can mean the difference between life and death.
After unlocking the Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha An's strength underwent a qualitative change.
He enhanced not only his kaleidoscope abilities, but also his overall qualities in all aspects, including speed, strength, reaction speed, and chakra levels.
Just as Itachi easily killed An, a Jonin with three tomoe, An can now assassinate those Anbu members with just one strike.
After easily resolving these troubles, Uchiha An appeared and stood in front of everyone, slowly walking forward step by step.
Seeing a pile of corpses lying before them, Konohamaru and the others were terrified and stammered, "..."
"You...aren't you a ninja from the Anbu?"
"Didn't the Hokage send you?"
"Why, why kill them?"
"Aren't they also members of the Dark Guard?"
Only Naruto reacted quickly, stepping in front of the others and anxiously calling out:
"Run! He's not from the Anbu!"
Konohamaru was still foolishly refuting it.
No, that's not it!
"He's from the Anbu!"
"I've seen him with my grandfather!"
"I recognize him!"
Uchiha An completely ignored the two of them performing their stand-up comedy, and just kept a cold face, reciting his lines in a wooden voice.
"The nine-tailed fox, inherently evil, should be firmly controlled by the village; it can't be allowed to roam freely outside like this!"
At this moment, he was filled with hatred, his gaze was icy, and the way he looked at the people in front of him as if they were not human was very much in the style of a Root, making everyone who saw him tremble.
Konohamaru, however, had never experienced the harsh realities of society and still firmly believed in his own eyes. He did not believe that the person in front of him was an imposter, nor did he think that anyone could harm him in Konoha Village. He continued to shout loudly.
"W-what, a nine-tailed fox? There aren't any nine-tailed foxes here!"
But he didn't notice that Naruto's body next to him had begun to tremble.
Naruto abruptly interrupted Konohamaru, shouting loudly:
"He came for me!"
"Run!"
"What?" Konohamaru was taken aback, but instead of running away, he pulled out a kunai from his bag and shouted loyally, "A ninja cannot abandon his comrades!"
"Naruto, run! We'll cover your retreat!"
"Don't worry about the Hokage, I'll plead with Grandpa!"
After shouting, he lunged at Uchiha An.
His group of friends behind him were also inspired by his actions and took out their ninja tools to launch an attack.
"No!"
Naruto yelled and tried to stop him, but it was too late. He only saw Konohamaru rush in front of the enemy and then be cut in two from the shoulder and back.
