Chapter 527 Uchiha Sasuke Chapter Head
Chapter 527 Uchiha Sasuke Chapter Head
Back in the present, the Konoha ninja dug all the living people out of the ground and gathered them together, looking at Uchiha Obito before them.
At first, he was wary and distrustful, but he soon realized that they had nothing left for him to deal with.
At this moment, Obito Uchiha said to them, "What I'm about to tell you will shock you, but it's all true. The ninja world no longer has a place for you to live, not even overseas!"
"So are we really going to die here?" someone asked, and sadness instantly spread through the crowd.
"Everyone, quiet down!" Obito waved his hand, silencing everyone. "That's why I said I might be the hope in the prophecy."
After saying that, he walked towards the other two people, or more precisely, the other two children, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.
When Naruto saw his father Obito approaching, he couldn't resist going up to him and hugging him, saying, "Dad Obito, where have you been all this time?"
Obito Uchiha hugged Naruto tightly, stroking his head. "I'm sorry, I've made you sad these past few days. Father, I've gone through a very, very long emotional journey. But now I'm no longer lost, I've found myself again."
He then crouched down, looked directly at Naruto, and said to him earnestly, "Naruto has something very important for you to do. Can you help me?"
"Yes!" Naruto Uzumaki wiped away his tears and nodded emphatically. "I will help you, Daddy."
"Alright." Obito smiled at Naruto, then walked up to Sasuke. "I know you dislike me and even harbor thoughts of killing me. But I have to tell you something: when that incident happened in the Uchiha clan, I did have the opportunity to intervene, but I didn't. I apologize for that. I don't ask for your forgiveness, I only ask that you cooperate with me from now on."
"Obito Uchiha, why should I listen to you? Why should I be at your mercy? Konoha deserves its current state!" The stubborn Sasuke Uchiha turned his head away, unwilling to listen to any explanations.
But when he saw the ruins and the children suffering from the loss of their parents, he felt a pang of pity.
There was nothing he could do; he was only eight years old after all. His heart was ultimately kind, and the Uchiha clan possessed great love within them. Only those who love the world can understand their suffering, empathize with them, and awaken the eyes that were born of love.
"What does this have to do with me?" He turned his head and continued to hypnotize himself.
At this moment, Tsunade stepped forward and said, "Uchiha Sasuke, I sincerely apologize to you! I admit that the old man went too far. Now they are all dead and have paid a heavy price for the decision he made."
"This is also a village built by your ancestors, filled with the blood and sweat of your Uchiha clan. Are you really going to just watch it be destroyed?"
Tsunade still looked old, but her attitude was serious. She placed her withered hands on her chest and said earnestly, "I, the Fifth Hokage, swear to the heavens that I will never allow such a thing to happen again."
Sasuke Uchiha was indeed somewhat moved, but in the end he forced himself to turn his head away.
"Who needs your guarantees? What's done is done, and it's irreversible. If apologies were useful..."
"Let me do it." At this moment, the last reanimated body, Itachi Uchiha, stepped forward and interrupted Sasuke Uchiha.
He crouched down, becoming a head shorter than Uchiha Sasuke. "Sasuke, I used to want to control your thoughts and manipulate your life. I thought it was for your own good, but now I realize I was wrong. People are free, and so are their thoughts. I can't impose my own ideas on you. Now the choice is yours. You can choose to let Konoha perish, or you can choose to save Konoha."
"Uchiha Itachi, you're like this again...you..." But before he could finish speaking, he saw Uchiha Itachi, turned around and walked to Uchiha Obito.
He turned back again, looking tenderly at Uchiha Sasuke, and said, "Sasuke, goodbye! Pursue...pursue the choice in your heart."
As he spoke, his impure body began to shimmer and gradually condensed in Obito's hand, turning into a red pill that glowed with the light of its eyes.
This is a Chakra Dan, one of the powers lent to him by the Sage of Six Paths, but it can only be used once and is only for the soul.
The Sage of Six Paths once told him that if he wanted to achieve the final redemption, his own power alone would not be enough; Itachi Uchiha's special chakra and Tsukuyomi were equally crucial.
"Brother..." Seeing his brother turn into a phantom eyeball, Uchiha Sasuke choked up halfway through his sentence, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably.
He touched his wet face and realized that he was still sad inside.
"Sasuke..." Hinata called softly from behind, but someone came forward before her and hugged Sasuke tightly. Naruto Uzumaki held him in his arms tightly and gave him tenderness.
"If you want to cry, just cry."
"Although we haven't known each other for long, I know very well that you're proud and awkward. You clearly want to save others, but you're held back by certain things."
"But you've forgotten, we're just kids. Remembering so much hatred will only make us more and more exhausted, and eventually, we'll be crushed by it. They're all dead! Sasuke, after you've cried this out, please let yourself go!"
"Naruto...you bastard, who needs your comforting..."
Although Sasuke Uchiha said that, he buried his head on his shoulder and burst into tears.
It's strange. He's taller and bigger than Naruto, and he looks like an adult, but why is he less resilient and more fragile than Naruto?
Soon Sasuke lifted his head from his shoulder, and Naruto reached out again, looking up and saying, "Hehe, they all say we are saviors, and they also say we are reincarnated rivals, but some even say we were brothers in our past lives! So let's make up completely starting from this life."
"Okay!" Sasuke grabbed his hand and replied.
The sunlight finally dispelled the darkness in my heart and awakened the love within. The thousand-year-old entanglement was finally resolved at this moment.
Everyone was happy, except for Gaara, who was filled with resentment and jealousy: Damn it, I was here first!
