Chapitre 116: Confrontation
Itachi stood in astonishment, his gaze fixed on Naruto with a mixture of disbelief and admiration swirling in his mind. The sheer power emanating from Naruto was overwhelming, not just physically, but in the aura of dominance he exuded.
"Never encountered someone so clueless about conversation. Threatening death if you don't comply? Isn't that a bit extreme?" Itachi mused silently, a hint of irritation flickering across his features. Despite his annoyance, he couldn't help but marvel at the audacity of this eight-year-old.
His Sharingan blazing crimson as the iconic Mangekyō Sharingan pattern materialized. With a swift motion, he activated his ocular technique.
"Tsukuyomi."
Unlike ordinary Sharingan illusions, Tsukuyomi possessed the ability to ensnare the target's consciousness within its ethereal confines. In this alternate reality, Itachi reigned supreme, manipulating time, space, and matter at will.
It was an inescapable technique, a realm where resolution seemed futile. The only defense against its grasp was to avoid meeting the caster's gaze altogether.
Within Tsukuyomi's domain, mere seconds stretched into eons, a torturous eternity where time lost its meaning, and reality warped beyond recognition.
And in the world of Tsukuyomi, Itachi seized the chance to ensnare his enemy in an intricate web of torment, weaving together pain and despair to shatter their resolve.
For Naruto, the transition into Itachi's Tsukuyomi realm was swift, a blink of an eye, and suddenly he found himself engulfed in a void of darkness, where reality seemed to dissolve into nothingness.
But Naruto refused to succumb to fear. While others might struggle to break free or even comprehend their plight, he knew the key to dismantling Tsukuyomi's hold. With his own mastery of ocular abilities, coupled with a power surpassing Itachi's own, Naruto possessed the means to not only dispel the illusion but also to turn its force against its wielder.
So Naruto swiftly opened his eyes, revealing the piercing crimson of his Mangekyō Sharingan, a stark contrast against the surrounding darkness.
"Why do you bear those eyes?" Itachi's voice cut through the shadows, a hint of surprise coloring his words as he emerged from the darkness, his gaze fixed upon Naruto's eyes.
But Naruto met his stare with a knowing smirk. "You've misunderstood," he retorted. "These eyes are my own, and they hold a greater power. Behold, Rinnegan, awaken!"
With a resonant hum, Naruto's Mangekyō Sharingan whirled and shifted, transforming into the majestic form of the Rinnegan.
The sight left even Itachi momentarily stunned. Could it be that the Sharingan, a legacy of the Uchiha, was intricately linked to the legendary Rinnegan bestowed by the Sage of Six Paths?
After all, such revelations remained shrouded in secrecy, hidden from the world at large, and it was no surprise that Itachi remained unaware.
For the Uchiha clan, descendants of the Sage's elder son, Indra, the Sharingan represented a diluted manifestation of the Rinnegan's power.
Yet, divided inheritance left them with the ocular prowess but not the divine form, restricting their abilities to the realm of the Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Itachi, your pupil power may be formidable, but it pales in comparison to mine. Your Tsukuyomi holds no sway over me," declared Naruto with confidence, ready to shatter Itachi's illusion with his own potent abilities.
Unbeknownst to Naruto, a subtle yet intricate expression flickered across Itachi's countenance. With a deliberate motion, Itachi produced a crow-like apparition, its dark form emanating an ominous aura.
A ripple of unease spread among the onlookers, their apprehension palpable even if they couldn't discern the cause.
Yet, despite his outward bravado, Naruto's eyes betrayed a hint of concern as he beheld the crow. Within its left eye gleamed another Mangekyō Sharingan—a sight instantly recognizable to Naruto as belonging to Uchiha Shisui.
While Itachi's Mangekyō resembled a triangular windmill, Shisui's Distinguished Heavenly Gods bore a distinctive four-cornered design.
"It was meant for Sasuke, a failsafe should he stray or turn against the village. But fate has led us here, Naruto," confessed Itachi, acknowledging Naruto's exceptional prowess. "Your potential surpasses even that of my own kin. You may even outmatch me."
Itachi conceded that Naruto's talents soared beyond expectation, a testament to his extraordinary abilities. Were they both the same age, Itachi admitted he'd struggle to contend with Naruto.
Yet, with a five-year age gap (though Itachi was closer to 14), and armed with Shisui's Mangekyō, Itachi had a different plan in mind.
"Naruto, I aim to reshape your destiny. Regardless of your conflicts with the village, remember your allegiance lies with Konoha. Use your gifts to protect it," Itachi declared, poised to enact his will.
His commitment to Konoha unwavering, Itachi was prepared to take drastic measures to ensure its safety, even if it meant compelling Naruto to comply.
Naruto's panic was palpable as he faced the daunting prospect of Itachi's intervention. Confronted by the potency of the
Naruto realized resistance was futile. He scrambled to unravel the confines of the Tsukuyomi, but it was too late.
"Wait!" Naruto exclaimed desperately. "I never intended harm to Konoha. I've been silently safeguarding it all along."
Itachi paused, his gaze piercing. "Do you truly believe I'm ignorant of Akatsuki's existence? Uchiha Madara's legacy, the orchestrator of the Nine Tails incident, weighs heavily upon you."
Inwardly, Itachi was well-informed. Yet, Naruto persisted, fervently denying any affiliation with the malevolent group.
"No, Itachi, you've been misled. The real Madara perished centuries ago. The one who deceived you was Obito, and I've put an end to him. Let's discuss this further," Naruto urged, hoping to manupulte Itachi by weaving a web of lies.
