On the border of the Land of Fire, near a secret base of the Akatsuki organization.
Su Xiao stood in front of a rock wall and stamped the 'Ring of the Sky' on her hand onto the groove of the rock wall.
Rumble.
The rock wall rose, and a passage leading into the mountain appeared. When you walked into the passage, the rock wall behind slowly fell down, and the passage became dim.
There was a faint sound of conversation coming from the secret stronghold, and Su Xiao walked towards the source of the sound.
"It's a lie... it must be a lie. These are obviously lies. Itachi is trying to protect me? It's nonsense. I was almost killed by him several times."
The roar of the two pillars came from the stronghold. It should be Obito and Sasuke telling the truth about Itachi.
"If Itachi was serious, you would be dead a long time ago."
Obito's voice came, his tone calm.
"Impossible, he even didn't hesitate to use the Mangekyo Sharingan eye technique to kill me. His purpose is my eyes, not to protect me at all. If you dare to say such nonsense again, I will definitely kill you."
Erzhu's voice was a little weak, indicating that he didn't believe Itachi would protect him, but judging from the trembling tone, he was wavering.
"Itachi has already calculated everything that will happen during the battle, including your ability, your chakra volume, and how you will respond when he attacks. His purpose is to push you into a desperate situation. The purpose of this... you
You must have guessed it a long time ago."
After hearing Obito's words, Sasuke's mouth opened slightly, recalling the scene of Orochimaru being sealed in his mind. The feeling of relief in his body at that time could not be faked.
Obito continued to tell Sasuke the facts, and Sasuke's defensive voice became smaller and smaller.
Su Xiao pushed the door open and entered the room. Obito, who was wearing a mask, glanced sideways at Su Xiao, while Erzhu lowered his head and his eyes were dull, as if he was doubting life.
"The smell of blood, are there enemies nearby?"
"No, I went to Konoha before."
Su Xiao did not continue, Obito nodded.
Sasuke raised his head and glanced at Su Xiao, his dim pupils were full of confusion, and there was no longer the firm hatred he once had.
"Byakuya, you came just in time, Sasuke, this is Itachi's partner in capturing the tailed beasts when he was alive."
Sasuke's pupils regained some brightness.
"you……"
Sasuke's words came to his lips, but he didn't know what to say.
Su Xiao waved her hand: "I don't know much about Itachi."
Light a cigarette and the smell of cigarette gradually fills the cave.
"Now, I just have one question."
Sasuke's fists clenched.
"Itachi or I...who is stronger?"
As soon as Sasuke's question came up, Su Xiao and Obito looked at each other, and both of them had an idea at the same time, where did this kid get his confidence.
"With all due respect, this is the stupidest question I've ever heard."
Su Xiao exhaled a puff of green smoke, and his aura gradually changed. It seemed that there was blood permeating the Dragon Slaying Flash around his waist. This aura that made living creatures retreat made Sasuke tensed up.
"Who is stronger, you or Itachi? Do you have the confidence to kill me?"
Sasuke hesitated for a moment and remembered the first time he met Su Xiao. At that time, the other party's knife tip was pressed against his throat, ready to kill him at any time.
"Maybe...can't."
"Oh? In other words, you think I'm stronger than Itachi?"
Sasuke nodded. After the previous battle, according to his senses, Itachi was not too strong.
"With your level of three Magatama Sharingan and Thunder Release Ninjutsu, I can kill you within twenty minutes. As for Itachi... I don't want to fight him. There is a 80% chance that I will die."
Sasuke shook his head, as if he didn't believe it.
"Let's not talk about anything else. Let's just talk about the level of genjutsu. I have seen Itachi use genjutsu to control the Jinchuuriki. As for your genjutsu level, hehe~"
Considering that Sasuke didn't know the Jinchuriki's fighting style, Obito spoke.
"Jinchuriki is immune to most illusions. You can imagine that the tailed beast is sealed in the body of the jinchuriki, so there are two kinds of chakra and two consciousnesses coexisting in one body. The tailed beast can release chakra to disrupt the chakra of the jinchuriki.
The structure, the illusion will break itself if it is not attacked.”
With this said, Sasuke understood the difficulty of controlling the Jinchuuriki using genjutsu, which was almost impossible to achieve.
"Itachi really...can control a guy like that with genjutsu? How can genjutsu be effective if the two chakras interfere with each other?"
Under Obito's "fooling", Erzhuzi became more doubtful about life. Su Xiao and Bubuwang sat aside and watched Obito pretend to be beeping.
"You have fought against Orochimaru. When Orochimaru faced Itachi, he was defeated in one confrontation. After that, Orochimaru betrayed the Akatsuki organization and became obsessed with the power of the Sharingan. This was Itachi's plan, and Orochimaru was fully committed to it.
to train you."
Obito gave Erzhu a ‘fatal blow’.
Erzhu stopped talking, and a special chakra surged out of his head.
"This is……"
Obito's Sharingan rotated and eventually turned into a kaleidoscope form.
"Itachi... Konoha senior officials, I want to kill those guys."
Sasuke's head suddenly raised, and the pair of three magatama sharingan rotated, eventually forming the shape of a six-pointed star, and Sasuke's Mangekyo Sharingan appeared.
"Is it a kaleidoscope? This is the first time I've seen it."
Su Xiao looked at Sasuke. As soon as the second pillar turned on the kaleidoscope, his body went soft and fell down. He must have fainted due to too much emotional fluctuation.
"This guy has been in a coma for a few days. The decisive battle between him and Itachi was probably three days ago."
"Always in a coma."
Obito thought for a moment and looked at Su Xiao.
"Thank you for assisting me in my actions before, but I still don't know your purpose until now."
"My purpose? Absorb the tailed beast chakra. This is the purpose of joining Akatsuki."
Su Xiao was so straightforward, Obito was obviously taken aback.
"Have you noticed that the tailed beasts I captured before are all half-dead."
"Oh? Aren't you afraid that the leader will kill you?"
"Of course I'm afraid. The leader is too strong and I'm no match for him. Greed will never shrink from fear. Only when you have enough courage can you become stronger."
Su Xiao vaguely felt that Obito seemed to have something important to say.
"I transplanted the Sharingan I had before."
Obito pointed to his Sharingan eye. This was actually his original eye, not a transplant.
"The ability is pretty good, this Sharingan is of the space system."
"Very good. By the way, there is one more thing. The leader is not going to let you participate in the plan to capture the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails. You should know the reason."
"I thought of it a long time ago."
The tailed beasts captured by Su Xiao were all half dead. Nagato's patience had its limit, and that was two.
"What are you going to do next? Quit Akatsuki? After all, your purpose has been accomplished."
"I haven't thought about it for the time being. I have offended all four major ninja villages: Mist Ninja Village, Sand Ninja Village, Iwa Ninja Village, and Konoha. Except for the Akatsuki organization, other forces will not take in a villain like me. I am just a person with no place.
It's just a killer who has found a place to stay. Xiao can just find a place to stay, so I'll stay here."
After listening to Su Xiao's words, a smile appeared on Obito's mouth under the mask.
If the Su Xiao was not very trustworthy in the past, the current Su Xiao is very trustworthy because he has offended too many forces. This is completely a desperate and rebellious style. But Obito doesn't know that there is a place called reincarnation.
paradise.
"Why don't you do something for me?"
"Help you do something?
Lidya Su grinned.
"You are also a member of Akatsuki and are on the same level as me. Why should I help you?"
"Why? What if I told you that my name is Uchiha Madara."
Su Xiao sneered in her heart, secretly thinking that Obito's bragging was really impressive.
"Uchiha...Madara."
Su Xiao stood up. He was considering whether to temporarily join Obito's strength, although the risk was not small.
If it were before, he would have refused immediately, but now that he has the power to protect himself, it is not impossible to consider it.
Obito has been using Nagato to complete the Eye of the Moon plan, Madara has been using Obito, and Black Zetsu has been using Madara. These people use each other, and their relationship is complicated.
At this point, it is impossible for Nagato to let Su Xiao hunt down the tailed beasts. Nagato's purpose is to use the power of the tailed beasts to rule the world and stop the war. Su Xiao's behavior of absorbing the chakra of the tailed beasts has made Nagato very sad.
dissatisfied.
Obito is different, his requirements are much looser, it doesn't matter how he absorbs it, as long as the tailed beast is still alive.
"If you are really Uchiha Madara, I can understand...are you the real leader of Akatsuki?"
"No, the leader of Akatsuki is neither me nor Pain. He is a dead man named Yahiko. This is the agreement between Pain and I."
Su Xiao extinguished the cigarette between her fingers and looked at Obito: "Anyone can call themselves Uchiha Madara. I will give you an answer after thinking about it."
