"Ninja World Asura, Uchiha Madara, do you know how he obtained those Mangekyo Sharingan that never go blind? He snatched his brother Uchiha Izuna's eyes to finally nurture eternal hatred and dojutsu power!"
Uchiha Fugaku whispered like a devil: "You may have heard of the name Uchiha Obito... the genius who unlocked Three-Tomoe Sharingan at a very young age. Do you know what the hawkish elder Uchiha Setsuna wanted to do with him?"
"He had a lover named Uchiha Rin, a pretty little girl..."
"Setsuna's sinister gaze told me he wanted to use that girl as a tool for Uchiha Obito to attain the Mangekyo. Do you understand what I mean? My son..."
"After hearing these stories, do you think maybe the strongest Uchiha in history, Uchiha Aomi, if not eliminated by Senju Tobirama, as our family's former enemy..."
"Someone as strong as him, how would he deal with me, you, and your mother?"
Uchiha Itachi's mind turned into a muddled mess.
Uchiha Fugaku's information overload was truly overwhelming; it was all about the clan's dark past...
This shattered Uchiha Itachi's small world view, which hadn't even fully formed, regarding the Will of Fire, the clan, and a sense of belonging.
Meanwhile.
Kaguya thought she came to hear Uchiha Fugaku and his son praising Aomi...
But she was deeply shocked instead.
What is this situation?
"Aomi, what... what did you do to this person?" Kaguya hesitantly asked.
Before Aomi could respond, Uchiha Itachi asked a similar question to Kaguya: "Father... but these are just your assumptions! Did Lord Aomi do anything to you? Or issue any threats?"
"Why... Why have I never heard of this before!"
Uchiha Fugaku glared at Uchiha Itachi, furious and exasperated, saying:
"By the time you hear about these things, Uchiha Aomi would have already made his move! I'm telling you this not to judge Uchiha Aomi's merits but to inform you that in this Ninja World, besides family, no one can be trusted!"
"Only I won't harm you, Itachi; I'm your father!"
"Uchiha Aomi's death proves my dojutsu-foreseen future is absolutely correct... I'm telling you this to ensure you tread carefully..."
"Itachi, your future must surpass Uchiha Aomi's! Before that, hide your talents well; don't let those Senju Tobirama people watching in the dark find out... Understand?!"
Uchiha Fugaku grasped Uchiha Itachi's head, pressing their foreheads firmly together.
In Uchiha Itachi's eyes, he could see Uchiha Fugaku's frenzied and contorted expression clearly...
Aomi amusingly shook his head.
This scene felt hauntingly familiar...
In the original timeline, Uchiha Itachi, to supposedly motivate or provoke Sasuke, emphasized the Uchiha Clan's madness and darkness, and even twisted the tale of Uchiha Izuna and Uchiha Madara's brotherhood...
Only Uchiha Fugaku, under the pressure from Aomi, seemed to be on the verge of breaking down and added more fear.
He even recognized Uchiha Setsuna's sinister intentions towards Uchiha Rin at such a level...
"Why... Why Aomi? But aren't you the epitome of the Uchiha Clan?"
Kaguya asked incomprehensibly: "You did nothing to him? Why does this clan leader appear like... like this..."
"Like he wishes for my death, right?"
Aomi naturally picked up the topic: "Don't hesitate to say it, Kaguya, because that's the reality."
"I brought you here to show you that even in the Konoha, that Asuma speaks so highly of, where people's hearts are supposedly united, there exist individuals like Uchiha Fugaku who secretly lurk, wishing for my demise..."
"It's not just Uchiha Fugaku; there may be many like him, only hiding their intentions..."
Kaguya furrowed her brows, with a hint of murderous intent glancing at Uchiha Fugaku, yet speaking to Aomi with an increasingly gentle tone: "Maybe... maybe he's misunderstood?"
"He doesn't know you sealed the Six Paths Sage with your life for the Ninja World..."
Aomi chuckled lightly:
"Whether I died due to Senju Tobirama's possession or in the fight against the Six Paths Sage, does it make a difference to him? As long as I'm dead, he'd naturally be delighted..."
Kaguya remained silent.
Aomi was right...
However, from Kaguya's perspective, Aomi, who sacrificed so much for the Ninja World, such a radiant yet foolishly kind person, being cursed behind his back by his clan feels truly unjust!
Is this truly worth it?
As for the Uchiha Clan's internal strife...
Among the cruel Otsutsuki Clan, any mutual killings within the main family are strictly prohibited...
When Urashiki met Toneri, whose bloodline purity was close to the family's, he said, "After all, I'm not allowed to kill my kind."
Contrary to the Uchiha Clan, they pursue and plunder each other for eyes, even among brothers and father-son, which surpasses Kaguya's imagination...
Unwittingly, Kaguya looked at Aomi with a trace of pity.
In such a family, how did Aomi manage to develop a bright and cheerful personality like a sunny, outgoing boy?
He must have...
Suffered quietly a lot!
[You have obtained "Jutsu: Yomotsu Hirasaka" from facing the target Otsutsuki Kaguya!]
"Aomi... this child named Itachi!"
Kaguya tried her best to comfort Aomi: "See, he doesn't agree with his father's views, which means the majority of your clan still supports you... they're all worth protecting! Don't be disheartened by one person..."
Hearing that Itachi is worth protecting...
Aomi smiled slightly and whispered to Kaguya: "His father's dojutsu, I once copied it... do you want to see what kind of person Uchiha Itachi would grow into in a world without me?"
"Would you help me take a look if I lend you my power?"
Kaguya gently nodded, her eyes resolute as she said, "I'll help you see, Aomi... believe me, the companions you're willing to sacrifice your life for, aside from a few rotten folks, most are worth such dedication!"
Kaguya didn't want Aomi to develop mistrust between people.
After all, she wished to further consolidate the trust with Aomi.
With Kaguya's gradually budding subtle emotions towards Aomi, she didn't want to witness Aomi's efforts going to waste for unworthy people...
"Reverse use Shinbijimi, Kaguya..."
Aomi whispered: "In this way, with your power and status, you should accurately observe what kind of person Uchiha Itachi would become without me in this world..."
"It will also give a clearer view of his disposition."
Kaguya nodded in understanding, cautiously using Aomi's dojutsu, then her eyes suddenly widened!
This kid is even less worthy than his father!
