Chapter 226
[“Wow, I’ve thought about Konoha’s role in this matter as much as possible, but I didn’t expect my imagination is still so poor!”]
[“This is the same as the Hidden Mist Village. They all like to persecute their own bloodline ninjas. If you don’t want them, give them to our village!”]
[“Other countries want to worship bloodline ninjas, and only big ninja villages like you don’t take them seriously!”]
[“This is a bit outrageous. Uchiha is one of the two original ninja clans founded by Konoha, and they were exterminated in such a trifling way!”]
“Mission!” Sasuke trembled all over and gritted his teeth to say this word, forcing Kakashi on the side to immediately speak up and comfort him: “Calm down, don’t you see what everyone is saying? This may just be a lie made up by the enemy!”
Having said that, Kakashi also understood that even if he wanted to deceive people, he couldn’t make up a lie at the beginning of the topic. If he was found out, all the subsequent speeches would be regarded as false, so the masked man’s words were most likely true.
"Lies... Then tell me the truth!" Sasuke looked at Kakashi with bloodshot eyes, and said hatefully: "Do those Konoha high-level officials dare to tell the truth! I think not only will they not tell it now, but they will also increase their surveillance on me, the remnant of Uchiha. At that time, you will stand on that side, the Sharingan Kakashi who is famous in the ninja world!"
"Hu..." Taking a deep breath, Kakashi did not show excessive emotions to stimulate Sasuke, and said calmly: "Sasuke, you can not believe me, do not believe the high-level officials of Konoha, but at least believe your companions. After knowing your situation, I think Naruto and Sakura will stand on your side anyway. Maybe they are not as powerful as they will be in the future, but you should not be able to deny Naruto's potential influence in the entire ninja world now."
"Konoha will give Uchiha a reasonable explanation. After all, the third generation even handled this matter personally, right? Don't wait patiently."
It is not known whether it was Kakashi's earnest words or his trust in Naruto that Sasuke calmed down temporarily.
At the training ground, Naruto looked at the sky with a worried look on his face. Even though he was not very smart, he could see that if he didn't handle it well, Sasuke's situation would become very difficult.
"Sexy Sage, I want to go see Sasuke..." Naruto looked at Jiraiya who was sitting under a big tree, writing and drawing on a book out of boredom.
Hearing this, Jiraiya looked up at Naruto's serious expression, and seemed to see himself chasing Orochimaru in the past.
Originally, according to his idea, he didn't want to pay attention to such troublesome things, but since Naruto asked him for help, and the third generation seemed to have plans for Uchiha, it would not be difficult for Naruto and Sasuke to meet.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya got up from the ground and said to Naruto: "Let's go. Whether you can calm down that Uchiha kid depends on whether you can speak."
"Hey... I'm not good at speaking..." Naruto muttered and followed him.
【Seeing that Sasuke seemed to have calmed down completely, the masked man began to talk about a more in-depth topic: "To talk about Itachi, we have to trace it back to the time when Konoha was founded. This village had a big hidden danger when it was first established, and this also determined Itachi's life. He was a victim, and the cause and effect that was buried from the beginning caused his sacrifice."】
【After briefly explaining the truth, the masked man once again emphasized that everything he said was true, but Sasuke also raised doubts at the right time, so the masked man retreated to advance, and did not force Sasuke to believe. The only requirement was to listen to him tell the whole story. After deep thinking, Sasuke stepped into the trap set for him. ]
["The topic is getting more and more confusing. How can Uchiha Itachi's story be brought back to decades ago? His father wasn't even born at that time!"]
["Listen to their explanation. No matter if it makes sense or not, it's enough to dig out some secret information from the founding of Konoha!"]
["Although Sasuke tried hard to express his distrust, I already have a hunch that he will be fooled by the other party next!"]
["Ha, this kind of paranoid personality is so easy to deceive!"]
["The story starts from eighty years ago." The masked man first gave a general introduction to the chaotic background of the Warring States Period, and then focused on the opposition between the Senju and Uchiha, and also clarified the rumor that Uchiha Madara took his brother's eyes. ]
["However, one day... the Senju clan proposed a truce to the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan agreed. Both sides were tired of the endless battle for a long time and reached their limit."After a pause, the masked man suddenly became excited: "I am the only one who opposes the truce... Where did the hatred in the past go? What was my brother's sacrifice for?"]
["In the final analysis, Uchiha and Senju are like water and fire. I had a hunch at that time that sooner or later, Uchiha would be expelled by Senju."]
["Humph! You are bragging. You said that Senju and Uchiha are the strongest among all ninjas!"]
["What's there to be angry about? This cognition was generally recognized at that time. Even now, everyone unanimously believes that the strongest ninja is the first Hokage Senju Hashirama, and Uchiha Madara is the only ninja who can compete with him!"]
["Maybe it is still the case now, but it may not be the case in the future. At least I think Naruto in the future can compete for the title of the strongest ninja!"]
["Well, the masked man said that Uchiha Madara's brother volunteered to donate his eyes, which conflicts with Itachi's words!"]
["You have to judge for yourself who is true and who is false, but I tend to agree with the masked man. It's hard to imagine that they would attack their own people in such a war-torn era!"]
["According to the masked man, do we have to wait until all the Senju clan are killed before the fight ends? If so, there will probably be few Uchiha left by then!"]
["The first Hokage is still very courageous. He was able to propose a truce under such circumstances!"]
["We are all human beings. After being in a state of war for many years, even if it is a low-intensity war, one day the spirit will not be able to bear it. At this time, the first Hokage's approach is correct!"]
["It's easy to say, but hatred is not so easy to eliminate. In that kind of environment, even if Naruto is thrown in, it will be useless!"]
"Obito, this kid, is making up stories because no one denies him. The kid called Uchiha Itachi before is also..."
Although Uchiha Madara doesn't care how future generations make up stories about him, it still feels a bit weird to say it in front of him.
