Chapter 200 Still Water: My eyes were opened again just to kill you!
After a moment of shock upon seeing Shisui, Itachi Uchiha quickly calmed down and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.
Since Shisui is dead, what appears before him is most likely an illusion, or a transformation technique used by someone with ulterior motives.
However, these ninjutsu techniques have nowhere to hide from his eyes; he can see through their true nature with just one glance.
However, when he activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, the person in front of him did not change at all.
"Shisui, is that really you? Aren't you already dead?"
"Uchiha Itachi!"
Shisui had lost his mind. With bloodshot eyes, he kept swinging the kunai in his hand and used ninjutsu to attack Uchiha Itachi.
The person standing before him now was no longer his close friend who shared the same ideals and worked hard for the village and family, but the enemy who had wiped out his entire family and had a blood feud with him.
"I understand now. So, Shisui, you're just like the other Uchiha clan members. Is this all the magnanimity you have? Then I'll send you to your death."
Even if Uchiha Shisui were standing in front of him at this moment, it would not change his mind. On the contrary, it would make him more convinced that what he was doing was right.
The Uchiha clan is a narrow-minded clan; keeping them around will only cause trouble sooner or later.
For the sake of Konoha, I must take action. As for the Uchiha clan, I have already preserved their lineage.
“Shisui, even though you were once my best friend, you have now become an obstacle. So please forgive me, Shisui, and let me send you back to the Pure Land.”
Red light flashed in Itachi's eyes.
"Amāteras! (Amaterasu!)"
With the activation of his pupil technique, a ball of black fire appeared out of thin air and directly burned Shisui's body.
Shisui immediately launched a series of instantaneous movements to retreat.
"Amaterasu Black Flame?"
Shisui, who had studied under Izuna for a while, immediately recognized what kind of eye technique it was: Amaterasu, a divine fire known as an inextinguishable flame that would completely burn its target to ashes.
But actually, controlling this flame is quite simple.
Shisui directly took off his vest, throwing the vest, which was burning with black flames, on the ground—a classic "stripping and breaking the sky" move.
When Itachi saw Shisui remove his clothes and break Amaterasu, he was clearly stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered.
The Mangekyou Sharingan was activated again, unleashing another Amaterasu.
However, this time, Shisui was prepared and used the Body Flicker Technique to evade.
He is a master of the Instantaneous Movement technique, which made him famous on the battlefield.
The continuous use of Body Flicker made it impossible for Itachi to lock onto Shisui for a moment. Even though the Sharingan has powerful dynamic vision, Shisui was still an Uchiha. The Uchiha know the Uchiha best.
Knowing their own strength, they naturally also know how to control their own kind.
After all, the Uchiha clan, which values strength, has sparred with its own members quite often.
"That's enough, I've lost all my patience."
Do you think you're the only one losing patience?
Shisui launched the first attack from behind Itachi.
"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"
Feeling the intense heat coming from behind, Itachi turned around.
"Tsukuyomi!"
With the activation of his pupil technique, Shisui was instantly pulled into the illusionary space.
"Immerse yourself in the genjutsu of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui. In the real world, only a single breath has passed, but in the genjutsu, you will live a perfect life."
"Still Water, my dearest friend, this is the last gift I can give you."
With that, Itachi planned to use Amaterasu to personally send his former best friend away.
"No, all of this is just an illusion, Uchiha Itachi! No matter how beautiful the world of illusion is, it is still false, and no matter how cruel reality is, it is still reality. But I will do my best to make this cruel world perfect. This is my reality, Uchiha Itachi!"
Shisui roared, and his eyes turned blood red again. A magatama appeared in his blood-red eyes and began to rotate, two, three.
The three magatama beads are connected together, forming a kaleidoscope.
"The Mangekyou Sharingan? How is this possible?!"
Itachi was stunned when he saw Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan. Wasn't one of Shisui's eyes taken by Danzo and given to Itachi instead?
Even if he is still alive, his eyes should just be ordinary eyes now, so why did he awaken the Sharingan again, and right away it was the Mangekyou Sharingan?
"Tsukuyomi!"
Although it was quite unexpected, Itachi still planned to continue using Tsukuyomi to control Shisui.
However, at the same time as the reading was activated, Shisui's left eye's kaleidoscope began to rotate, and Tsukuyomi immediately lost its effect.
"Unable to activate Tsukuyomi? Is this the power of your new Mangekyou Sharingan?!"
Itachi did not hesitate and activated the power of his other eye again.
"Amāterasā! (Amaterasu)"
The black flames erupted once more.
This time, Shisui didn't use the Body Flicker Technique to dodge, but instead accelerated and charged towards Itachi.
However, the moment the Amaterasu black flames appeared, Shisui's right eye unleashed an astonishing suction force.
All of Amaterasu's black flames were devoured in an instant.
"The flames have been consumed!"
Itachi was stunned. One eye could ignore Tsukuyomi's genjutsu, while the other eye could devour Amaterasu's flames.
You really are my best friend. The new abilities of both eyes are all for yourself, right?
"Uchiha Itachi! You are unworthy of the name Uchiha! These eyes of mine were awakened once more to kill you!"
Shisui roared, and his green half-body Susanoo rose from the ground. The Susanoo giant swung its spiraling spear and thrust it toward Itachi.
Seeing the Susanoo Giant swing its spear toward him, Itachi unleashed the power of his Mangekyou Sharingan.
The orange-red Susanoo giant rose from the ground, raising a round shield to block the spear's attack.
"Good heavens, is this the ninja world version of using one's own spear against one's own shield?"
Seeing the two Susanoo fighting, Tetsuya exclaimed that they were experts.
Tobirama, who was standing nearby, inquired.
"Shisui broke his promise. Aren't you going to stop him?"
Tetsuya smiled.
"Why try to stop him? I'm worried he might act impulsively."
Tobirama understood; he realized that this was all a scheme Tetsuya had set up for Shisui.
"You really are frightening. You actually set up such a huge scheme for the sake of a single drop of water."
"Sigh, I can't say that I set up such a big scheme for Zhishui. It just so happens that there was something I could manipulate and take advantage of."
Tetsuya said with a smile.
"Rather than saying I was someone who set up the scheme, it would be more accurate to say I was someone who was just riding the wave of the situation. After all, I can't bear the blame for the grand scheme that led to the annihilation of the Uchiha clan."
Trying to shift the blame for the annihilation of the Uchiha clan onto oneself is absolutely unacceptable. After all, one is not the one to blame; that's Danzo's position. So, let Danzo take the blame.
