Chapter 178: Itachi Understands Me So Well!
Kisame once again felt the hatred of the world.
Throughout his life, every time he thought he had found purpose and meaning in life, fate would always come out and give him a blow to the head!
Tell him everything was wrong and meaningless.
Wasn't this too persistent?
"How do you know the Moon Eye plan is wrong?"
Kisame looked at Lux and asked weakly, finally knowing to question her.
Lux rolled her eyes at Kisame:
"Your mind is as stupid as a shark's mind? Can you rely on one illusion to make people all over the world fall into a dream of eternal life?"
"If you're asleep, you don't need to eat, drink, or have diarrhea? You don't need to maintain vital signs?"
"There are very useful illusions. Why didn't the Rikudo Sennin use it back then? Why didn't he use it? You don't understand such simple truths? You're a bunch of idiots."
Kisame's face turned gray, and he froze in place.
What the other party said seemed to make sense!
Why hadn't he thought about this problem before?
We're all trapped in an illusion, who will feed and give us water?
Or is it like a fruit nourished by a sacred tree?
But the fruit will always ripen and wither, and one day the tree will wither and rot.
Putting the entire life of the world on an illusion and a sacred tree was becoming increasingly unreliable the more he thought about it!
❀❀❀
At the same time, Orochimaru also came and listened with great interest.
This kind of secret among secrets wasn't something that everyone could know.
Although Orochimaru wasn't interested in the Moon Eye plan, the Rinnegan and Pain themselves were still quite interesting.
"So, is this Akatsuki's final plan? Crazy to trap everyone in a fake illusion!"
"What's the fun in all the wrong things?"
Orochimaru pursed his lips in disgust.
He was also one of the most resistant to illusions.
How could he learn science if he lived in an illusion all his life?
All experimental conclusions were not objective, so how could he investigate the truth himself?
No, absolutely not!
"It seems that this Eye of the Moon plan does have a big loophole."
Itachi gave his own assessment. Although he was good at illusions, he was also very cautious about the power of illusions.
Never believe that illusions can solve all problems.
Moreover, he himself had mastered Tsukuyomi and knew the power and loopholes of this illusion; an illusion without a basis in reality was ultimately a castle in the air.
"Excuse me, Sir, who is the masked man in the Akatsuki organization who calls himself Madara?"
"Uchiha Obito."
Lux revealed another secret, without saving face.
"That's him! Kakashi's former teammate!"
Itachi was silently surprised. Although he had also investigated the masked man, it was very difficult to connect him with the silly Obito back then.
"How could he?"
"But he was just tricked by Madara and other Black Zetsus, and became an unwitting pawn."
"Then he and Pain?"
Lux could guess what Itachi wanted to ask.
"Don't think about it, they are different from you. They have been brainwashed for too long and there's no cure."
The reason why Obito couldn't wake up no matter how hard people tried to persuade him wasn't because he himself didn't understand the problem, but because the cost of long-term investment in the future was huge.
Make them reluctant to give up, he was willing to deceive himself!
Minato, Kushina, Biwako, etc., every blood debt that died at Obito's hands made him have no way out.
In short, there was no way back!
Unless he witnessed the failure and truth of the Infinite Tsukuyomi with his own eyes, Obito wouldn't be able to give up.
Moreover, Nagato's final plan wasn't the Infinite Tsukuyomi, he just wanted to collect all the Bijuu, rebuild the Juubi, and obtain a 'strategic peace weapon' that could intimidate the whole world.
Theoretically, this path had been set.
So before defeating Nagato, it was impossible to convince him through words.
Although Naruto's Sermon was very powerful, he only had a chance to use it after defeating Nagato.
❀❀❀
Itachi fell silent and thought about it carefully.
Neither Pain nor Obito could be easily convinced.
It would be better to find a way to defeat them, or take their Rinnegan and Sharingan.
At that time, their crazy plan would be detrimental to themselves.
"I know what I have to do! Thank you for the information, Sir."
Itachi nodded in thanks and looked at Kisame again.
"Kisame, to face Pain and Obito, I need your strength!"
Kisame was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly:
"Itachi, do you still want to trust me now?"
"I believe you don't want to let the whole world become fake, or even be destroyed in the fake."
"Ah this…"
Kisame hesitated, Itachi understood him so well!
"But this means betrayal, I really don't want to."
"I need you! I think after everything is over, we can all find our final purpose!"
Kisame's heart was pierced hard, and his line of defense was gone completely.
In the end, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh at himself:
"Alright, Itachi is usually quiet, but I didn't expect you to be so good at confusing people at critical moments?"
"I'm the one who failed!"
"It seems I've become a double agent!"
Whatever the reason, Kisame agreed.
Then basically, there was no need to worry about betrayal.
Besides, it would be difficult for Itachi alone to overthrow the entire Akatsuki organization.
But if Kisame's double agent was added as an internal response, at least the success rate could increase significantly.
The future was promising!
❀❀❀
"Do you have any other suggestions, Sir?"
"You can do it yourself."
Lux was quite satisfied with the result of this 'fierce battle in the rainy night'. Danzo, Itachi, and Kisame started stabbing the Akatsuki organization from behind, and Orochimaru also eliminated the main political enemy.
This result was already good.
"Thank you, Sir!"
Itachi bowed in thanks. Fortunately, Lux didn't make any more excessive demands, but instead provided a lot of valuable information.
Then, let Kisame pick up Sasuke on the ground and prepare to leave.
"Wait!"
Orochimaru beside him spoke, interrupting and stopping them.
"Hokage-sama, do you have any other questions?" Itachi didn't have a good expression towards Orochimaru. A word about Hokage was already the last thing to save face.
"You can go, but Sasuke has to stay here!"
Through the battle, Orochimaru also saw Itachi's poor physical condition and removed him from the list of alternative vessels.
With a sickly body, even if he was reincarnated, he wouldn't be able to last long.
Therefore, Itachi could leave, but Sasuke had to stay here.
Although there was a threat from Madara, Orochimaru wasn't ready to take action against Sasuke in the short term.
However, Sasuke didn't have the courage to seize his body.
But in the name of teaching and training Sasuke, he still had the courage to secretly learn the secrets of the Uchiha bloodline and the Sharingan.
Not only that, it was also very huge!
Itachi could only frown when he heard that Orochimaru wanted to force Sasuke to stay.
The fundamental purpose of his arrival in Konoha was to ensure whether Orochimaru became Hokage.
If he was found out, find a way to eliminate him.
If he really couldn't eliminate him, take Sasuke away to prevent him from becoming Orochimaru's vessel!
"You still want to take action against Sasuke?"
"Of course, I don't dare. I don't want to fight Uchiha Madara while he's watching."
"But… Sasuke is safer staying in Konoha than being taken away by you!"
Orochimaru licked his lips and said with a smile.
"Hm?"
Itachi frowned, he knew Akatsuki wasn't in good shape.
But pride was still difficult to keep Sasuke safe.
Orochimaru continued: "First: The Akatsuki organization isn't a place for this young Sasuke to stay. Second: Since you are also preparing to seize the Rinnegan, I can also reveal a little bit. The Akatsuki organization will soon be overwhelmed by itself."
"What do you mean?"
"I've already sent an invitation to the Five Kage Conference. When the formal talks are held, I will announce the existence and ambitions of Akatsuki at the meeting."
"Then call the five great villages to besiege Akatsuki together, thus annihilating this organization! At that time, facing the cooperation of the five great villages, can you still perfectly protect Sasuke in Akatsuki?"
Orochimaru raised his lips and revealed part of his plan.
Since he became Hokage, he had been devising a plan to mobilize the entire ninja world, and began to implement it step by step.
Get rid of Danzo, trick Itachi into Konoha, hold the Five Kage Conference.
It was all just part of the plan.
In this plan, Danzo would definitely die no matter what, and Itachi, who had exhausted all his energy fighting Danzo, would most likely not be able to escape his grasp.
If Uchiha Madara hadn't jumped halfway, the final winner tonight would most likely be Orochimaru.
Although Itachi was also hiding the Kusanagi Sword and maintaining the chakra from the last time he used Susano'o, but he wasn't actually completely sure that he could seal Orochimaru with one move.
Even if Itachi was lucky enough to escape alive!
Orochimaru was also prepared for the worst possibility, when the Five Kage Conference began.
If the five great countries joined forces to attack the Akatsuki organization, Itachi would most likely be crushed to death by the ninja world!
At that time, Itachi and Akatsuki, who were tired of fighting, would be even less likely to face Orochimaru alone.
Hearing this, Itachi naturally understood immediately, connecting all the clues, and understanding Orochimaru's plan.
He couldn't help but look at Orochimaru and sigh with emotion:
"Orochimaru, an amazing plan!"
"Hahaha! Itachi, thank you!"
"Do you really want to start another world war? Sandaime wouldn't agree."
"I'm not Sarutobi-sensei, and he can't order me anymore. After all, no one knows the strength and threat of Akatsuki better than us, right?"
"Are you sure?"
"I wasn't so sure before. But now that you two are inside, I have a much greater chance of winning. And if you want to complete the mission and seize the Rinnegan, isn't this also a good opportunity?"
"..."
Itachi fell silent, there was no way to refute it.
If he could really provoke a war, it would be more conducive to his Rinnegan planning.
After Pain died, if successful, the Akatsuki organization might not be able to develop at all.
