****************
Colt found that he seemed to be using the Tsukuyomi in a rather unorthodox way.
This genjutsu under the Mangekyō Sharingan was originally a super technique that could incapacitate even strong people in one move.
But Colt had been using it to exchange information every time he used it.
The only two victims he used it differently on were Zabuza and the Nine-Tails.
However, this seemed to be fine to him.
'Maybe this is the true use of Tsukuyomi?'
The moment Sasuke knew they were in a Genjutsu, he hurried to talk.
"Colt, I have given you what you asked for, and now I want to know the truth of everything!"
After he heard that Danzo had died, he wanted to rush back to Konoha to understand the situation.
But Orochimaru was by his side, and he didn't get what Colt had wanted by that time, so it was difficult to get any substantive information.
So, he could only suppress his impulses and concentrate on training.
"How far has Orochimaru improved the Curse Mark?"
Colt didn't answer but instead asked.
Sasuke snorted as he didn't hear what he wanted and said reluctantly:
"It's close to perfection, and the control of the Curse Mark is greatly enhanced. It took a lot of effort to get it from Orochimaru, it is absolutely true."
As one of Orochimaru's proud achievements, it was really hard for Sasuke to learn the technique.
Sasuke didn't exaggerate his efforts.
Colt nodded, "If you lie to me now, I will kill Itachi myself, so that you will never get your revenge for the rest of your life."
Damn!
'What kind of devil is this?'
Sasuke felt ants crawling all over his body just hearing it.
Perhaps, if Itachi heard Colt was coming for him, he might just kill himself before.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Just ask if you have anything to ask," Colt waved his hand and immediately changed the subject.
Sasuke's eyes twitched, "Don't touch Itachi! He is mine to kill!"
Colt spread his hands and said innocently, "If you don't get stronger soon, I'm afraid he will die of natural causes before you can kill him."
Tch.
Sasuke snorted, not bothering anymore with replying.
After thinking for a long time, he found that he actually had quite a few questions, and it was a problem to think of where to start.
"Why don't we start with Danzo first," Colt reminded kindly after being dragged into an awkward silence.
"Yes, yes, Danzo - is he the murderer who destroyed the Uchiha clan?"
Sasuke decided on the topic.
Colt rubbed his chin and seemed to organize his thoughts.
After a long while, he said uncertainly: "If you want to say that he is, that can be said to be true... but, he didn't do anything directly. Apart from killing Shisui, he really didn't directly attack the Uchiha clan."
This old Danzo had always been playing behind the scenes.
Even on the night of the massacre, he had sent his Root ninjas to observe.
"Danzo killed Brother Shisui?" Sasuke's eyes widened.
"Don't interrupt me, wait for me to finish," Colt waved his hand.
He hated others interrupting his explanations.
Sasuke shut up rapidly.
"As I said before, there is also darkness at the top of Konoha. Which of course includes Danzo, however, there are also two advisors."
"Those two advisors are indeed scumbags, but their role is very small. If you're interested though, you can kill them, I don't care."
Sasuke's heart went cold.
'Konoha still has some enemies…'
Colt stretched out his hand, created a sofa chair in the Tsukuyomi space, and sat on it comfortably before continuing.
"I won't talk about things that are too far in the past. You just need to remember that the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, hated the Uchiha very much, and his will extended to his students."
"Danzo is the person who implemented this will most thoroughly, and in all of Konoha, he's the one who finds the Uchiha the least pleasing to the eye."
"Why target the Uchiha? Aren't we also the founders of Konoha?"
Sasuke was very puzzled.
He didn't understand why the Second Hokage hated the Uchiha so much.
"You really want to get to the bottom of it."
Colt had a headache, but he sighed and decided to explain patiently.
"The reasons are many. One is the original hatred between the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan, and another is 'Uchiha Madara'."
"But the most important thing is that the Uchiha clan is just too unstable."
"Unstable?" Sasuke stared blankly at Colt.
"Why is it unstable?"
Colt pointed to his eyes:
"You should still remember the circumstances under which the Sharingan can be activated?"
Sasuke thought of the Night of the Massacre where he awakened his single Tomoe, and also remembered being jealous of Colt's strength to awaken the 2-Tomoe.
He thought of the Valley of the End battle, where he awakened the 3-Tomoe against Naruto.
Colt clapped his hands, and a pair of huge Three Tomoe Sharingans appeared in the entire space, hanging above the sky, like a blood moon.
The earth was also stained with a layer of blood, which looked a little creepy.
"As you might think, the process of awakening the eyes is often accompanied by strong emotional stimuli. That's why the Uchiha clan is unstable."
"Just imagine it, who wants to have a group of powerful psychopaths in their village, who can suddenly get stronger and betray them?"
Sasuke was silent.
He remembered that he had seen many extreme clansmen when he was young, and the more extreme people were often in high positions.
He was a little puzzled again, "What about you? Colt, I have never seen you being emotional and losing control."
"And why do you have the same eye technique as Itachi?"
In his memory, let alone being stimulated, Colt accompanied Ino and Hinata every day, and he rarely even saw him getting angry.
"To correct you, mine is stronger than Itachi," Colt vetoed Sasuke's claim with a wagging finger.
"As for my ability to awaken my eyes, it can only be said that my talent is good and I don't need to be stimulated."
Sasuke clenched his fists and wanted to go up and punch Colt twice.
But he chose to endure.
"Go on," Sasuke squeezed the words out through his teeth.
Pat!
Colt snapped his fingers again, and the blood moon in the sky disappeared, replaced by a huge demon fox, roaring up to the sky.
Sasuke was shocked to see that their environment had changed from nothingness to the Konoha Village.
"Although the Second Hokage hated and feared the Uchiha, it was a force in the village after all, and he just chose to limit it instead of taking a more extreme approach."
"He also had a disciple named Uchiha Kagami, who is said to be the ancestor of Shisui."
"Such a policy was also carried over to the Third Generation. Although the Uchiha were isolated at first, they were able to live well in Konoha."
"There have even been one or two war heroes from the Uchiha in the wars."
Colt's voice slowly became low.
"Unfortunately, a sudden Nine-Tails attack broke this fragile balance."
"Countless people saw with their own eyes the sign of the Sharingan in the eyes of the Nine-Tails, and the source of everything pointed to the Uchiha clan."
Sasuke was stunned.
It seemed to him that whoever did this, had a plan to destroy the Uchiha.
"Who was it?!"
Sasuke was angry.
This person was pushing the Uchiha clan into the abyss.
Colt sat up straight and said word by word.
"He calls himself... Uchiha Madara!"

"Impossible!"
Sasuke cried out, "It's recorded in the clan history that Uchiha Madara died long after the Battle of the Valley of the End with the First Hokage."
"That's why he's self-proclaimed as that person as far as I can tell," Colt spread his hands. "However, I've met that person before, and he does have the Sharingan indeed."
Colt didn't tell Sasuke all the information because even Obito called himself as Uchiha Madara at this point. He had nothing to explain.
Sasuke sat blankly on the ground.
He didn't expect that it was his own ancestor who had betrayed his people.
"The next events went smoothly. As the Nine-Tails' rebellion subsided, the higher-ups became more and more afraid of the Uchiha and forced them to move out of Konoha's center," Colt continued.
"The conflict intensified step by step, and the Uchiha finally couldn't help but want to rebel. Shisui once wanted to use his genjutsu to control all the high-level executives and kill the rebellion in its cradle, but Danzo robbed him of an eye beforehand, and then Shisui died."
Sasuke suddenly raised his head, his tone a little agitated, "But what does this have to do with Itachi? He said that he killed the Uchiha to test his own abilities!"
Colt snorted.
"By this point, do you really believe that statement? Why didn't he go and kill Danzo if he wanted to measure his abilities? Uchiha Itachi just felt like he was thinking from the Hokage's perspective and found that only by destroying the Uchiha could the village be at peace. Free from a war."
"Of course, there's also you. One of his conditions for the Third Hokage was to ensure that you would live in peace. After all, he's the older brother who has always loved you deeply."
"By the way, the man who called himself Uchiha Madara also appeared, and it was the two of them who worked together to kill all the Uchiha. Otherwise, Itachi alone couldn't have done it."
Colt's mouth was dry after speaking in one breath.
'Sigh'
Sasuke's whole body was shaking; the amount of information in this explanation was too much. Everything he had always believed in shattered…
Sasuke had always regarded Itachi as his worst enemy, and with this mentality, he was always looking for ways to become stronger. He even abandoned Naruto and Konoha and came to Orochimaru.
But now, Colt was telling him that the person he hated was the one who loved him the most.
"No, it's impossible. You must be lying to me. You and Itachi are a team, just to trick—"
Snap!
Before Sasuke could finish his words, Colt gave him a cold slap that left him stunned.
Colt had always been very easy-going, never using such a heavy hand even with Sasuke.
It wasn't very harmful, but highly insulting.
Sasuke had never been slapped like this, and he was dazed for a while, with a dumb expression on his face.
"You think I'm going to get along with someone who killed his own parents with his own hands?" Colt asked coldly.
Even if Itachi's popularity was high, his talent strong, and his motives grand, Colt was extremely disgusted with him based on this alone.
'What a waste of a human being!'
At this time, Sasuke woke up as if from a dream.
Yes, Itachi had killed his father and mother with his own hands!
Sasuke wished Itachi had killed him too, so he wouldn't have to face this dilemma of the century.
The elder brother killed his parents to protect his younger brother—what should the younger brother do?
"What do you think I should do?" Sasuke asked weakly, having lost the direction of his life.
The only one he could ask for help was Colt.
In his heart, Colt's status was very special.
Because of the Sharingan, he always counted Colt as half family.
"Okay," Colt said, gesturing for Sasuke to sit on a sofa.
Hadn't he wasted so much time speaking just to pave the way for this moment?
"Sasuke, have you ever thought about this? Itachi has never considered things from your point of view from beginning to end. He just imposed what he thought was right on you, and you were manipulated by him like a puppet. In the end, he will also be killed by you under his manipulation, allowing you to obtain the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan."
"What is the Eternal Mangekyō?" Sasuke asked subconsciously.
"After awakening the Mangekyō, as long as one uses special ocular techniques, their vision will continue to decline, and they will eventually become blind."
"Only by implanting the eyes of your own sibling can you prevent blindness, and your ocular power will be greatly increased. That's called the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. That's why I said my eyes are stronger than Itachi's. But, don't look at me; I have awakened the Senju bloodline, which has counteracted this side effect."
Colt made a random excuse to explain it away.
"So, Itachi's purpose is to give me the Eternal Mangekyō? And then return to Konoha with the halo of killing an S-rank rebel?" Sasuke asked.
"That's right."
"Heh, he's really a good brother who thinks about me," Sasuke snorted.
Under Colt's guidance, he was successfully aroused by his rebellious psychology.
Colt was right, however.
Itachi had killed his parents anyway, even if it was to protect him... But had Itachi ever asked for his opinion? Did he think about what Sasuke actually needed?
That being the case, he wouldn't do it.
He would get Itachi's eyes, kill Uchiha Madara, and finally get revenge on his Konoha that he wanted to protect!
Thinking of this, Sasuke looked up at Colt.
"Aren't you afraid that I will hate Konoha and take revenge after knowing all this?"
In the whole affair, Konoha's role was also extremely disgraceful.
Colt smiled contemptuously, "With me here, what can you do? Even if you get Itachi's eyes."
"I'm telling you all this to make Itachi, a scum who killed his father and mother, die in pain and regret. It must be very painful for him when the younger brother who has always loved him, would completely reject what he did in the end, right?"
In the end, Colt couldn't help but laugh.
He really wanted to see how wonderful Itachi's expression would be then!
Sasuke got up slowly, the power in his eyes was about to activate but eventually dissipated.
"You win. I'll kill Itachi, and kill Madara. But you'd better pray that you are always stronger than me, or one day, Konoha will face my revenge."
"I look forward to that day," Colt smiled with satisfaction.
"Now then, since you are so filled with courage today…"
"Let's refuel you with hatred. You will relive the night of the massacre for the remaining time in this genjutsu."
Sasuke's face changed, "Kamiyo Colt, what are you doing?!"
The space changed again, and the scene where Itachi killed his parents with his own hands reappeared.
Again and again...
When he got out of the Genjutsu…
"Ah! Colt, you—!" Sasuke screamed and fell to the ground weakly.
"Orochimaru, take me away!" After struggling to say a few words, Sasuke couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
"Sasuke!" Naruto wanted to rush forward but was stopped by Colt.
"Let him go. The deal with Orochimaru just now has been made clear. Since Sasuke doesn't want to come back, we can't interfere."
"But—" Naruto wanted to say something else, but Orochimaru had already taken advantage of this time to reach Sasuke.
"Colt-kun really kept his promise. I look forward to our next meeting. And you, Uzumaki Naruto, if you don't work hard, you won't even be able to see Sasuke's back. Kukukuku!"
After speaking, the three of them slowly sank into the ground and disappeared.
