No one knew which Uchiha made the first move, in any case, a group of people madly charged toward Itachi.
A sky-shaking hatred surged to the heavens.
Uchiha Itachi was torn into pieces, in the physical sense.
Afterward, his Edo Tensei body reassembled.
Then, it was torn into pieces again.
Just like that, Itachi was torn apart again and again, again and again, until all the Uchihas had vented their anger once, only then did they stop.
Throughout the whole process, Itachi did not resist, but calmly accepted it.
Sasuke, though a bit distressed, had no reason to stop them.
After all, his brother was already dead, otherwise, the clansmen might really eat Itachi alive.
Although the clansmen had stopped their hands, the accusations continued without end.
"Itachi, tell me, why?" [T/N: Ain't nothin' but a heartache]
The one asking was a usually kind elder of the Uchiha.
He wept old tears, "You can kill me, but why go after my just-born grandson, he was still so small, knew nothing, he had only just arrived in this world."
Itachi only lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, at that time the village and the clan were already in a state of possible war at any moment, I did it for peace, only then…"
The elder blew his beard and glared, "Bullshit from your damn mouth!"
"You tell me, what's your surname? Who gave birth to you and raised you?"
Another Uchiha added, "Elder Shishou has always been part of the moderate faction, he advocated resolving problems peacefully with the village, and also advised…"
However, before the words were finished, the elder Uchiha named Shishou already roared: "To hell with peaceful resolution, this old man wants to perish gloriously with Konoha!"
The Uchiha who had just spoken quickly corrected himself, "Now Elder Shishou is no longer moderate nor radical, but part of the Hawk Faction!"
Then, his eyes turned red, "I'm also part of the Hawk Faction, better to shatter like hawk than survive like doce, let's fight Konoha to the death!"
This declaration sparked an uproar, "Exactly, we're already dead, yet have undying bodies, we can go to war with Konoha at any cost, anything that doesn't kill us will only make us stronger!"
"Exactly!"
"That's right!"
"Agreed!"
"Destroy Konoha!"
The voices rising higher and higher made Itachi's heart bleed.
Compared to being torn apart countless times by these frenzied Uchihas, what he feared more was his clansmen making trouble for Konoha.
Then what meaning would everything he did have?
Why had things turned out this way?
Kabuto looked at the uncontainable sorrow on Itachi's face, feeling very satisfied, "Itachi, your arrogance ultimately destroyed yourself. What you thought was the right thing to do, brought about the greatest tragedy."
A group of Uchihas all looked at Kabuto.
Though the power of this group wasn't much before Kabuto, being stared at by so many Sharingan still gave him a lot of pressure.
Kabuto instantly shut up. Though he could seize control of these Uchihas anytime, if he did that, how could he continue enjoying this good show?
Only by letting these Uchihas act recklessly and lawlessly could he inflict torment on Itachi.
At this time, the highest-ranking Elder Shishou looked toward Sasuke, "Sasuke, what about you, are you going to stand on your brother's side?"
"After all, so many of us died, only you survived, so Itachi must have shown you special treatment, huh, what a brother-loving good big brother."
Uchiha Sasuke bit his teeth hard, his whole body trembling as he said, "I… I don't know."
Seeing this, Itachi immediately said, "Everything is my responsibility, it has nothing to do with Sasuke, he is the only remaining sprout of the Uchiha, under no circumstances can he be harmed."
Shishou said dissatisfied, "Shut up, you have no qualification to interrupt here, or are you, the number one expert of the Uchiha, trying to kill us again?"
Regardless of Itachi's attitude, Shishou continued, "Sasuke, we now want to take revenge on Konoha, you…"
Before Shishou finished, Sasuke already clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "I'll go with you!"
However, Shishou immediately cursed, "Get lost! Stay the hell away, under any circumstance, don't come back, find a place, and give birth, reproduce the Uchiha population for me!"
Sasuke was stunned, didn't expect he wasn't the only smart one. This secret he had just realized, yet the clansmen had long known.
He said with grief and indignation, "I will, I will make the Uchiha prosper again!"
Only then did Shishou nod in satisfaction, "Though I can't stand Fugaku, and I also can't stand you and that weasel Itachi, there's no choice, you're the only remaining sprout of the Uchiha, you must shoulder the clan's responsibility!"
After speaking, Shishou finally looked again at Uchiha Itachi.
"You're also dead, die well! That masked man's identity, you know it, right? Is he dead?"
Itachi shook his head, "Not only is he not dead, he still wants to destroy the world, most of you were killed by him, if you want revenge, go after him first."
Shishou was very displeased, gave Itachi a fierce glare, "Trying to divert hatred, huh, you can't do it!"
"But your words do have some sense, tell me who that person is. As a member of the clan, attacking his own kin, that's unforgivable!"
Itachi slowly said, "His name is Uchiha Obito, he had been using the name of Madara, even deceived me."
Once this was said, a group of Uchihas revealed strange expressions.
Among them, the one who least looked like an Uchiha, kindhearted, often helped old ladies cross the street, Uchiha Obito, was the real killer?
Now he even wanted to destroy the world?
That was really damn unscientific.
But now, there wasn't time to worry about that.
Uchiha Shishou said, "Tell me where he is, we'll go find him!"
Itachi let out a sigh of relief, going after Obito was fine, he had truly feared this group of Uchihas would charge toward Konoha. At Konoha's current defensive strength, the village might not survive.
He said, "I also don't know where Uchiha Obito is now, but the war was started by him, he will definitely appear on the battlefield. You only need to inquire a bit, and it'll be easy to find out."
Shishou, having received the intel he wanted, stopped talking, and said to the surrounding Uchihas, "Let's go."
Just like that, a group of Edo Tensei Uchihas departed, they were going to stir up chaos in the Fourth Great War.
Of course, not all of them left. Uchiha Izumi stayed behind.
She looked at Itachi with a complicated gaze, "Itachi, I will always follow you, and go nowhere else."
"In the dream you gave me, you were the father of my child, my husband, I hate you, but I can't abandon you either!"
At the side, having enjoyed a good show, Yakushi Kabuto clapped his hands and walked to Itachi's side, "How's the gift I prepared for you, are you satisfied?"
Itachi suddenly raised his head, "I've finished getting revenge on you too, say it, what do you want, so you'll be willing to undo the Edo Tensei."
Kabuto pushed his glasses, "I have to say, you truly changed me. Now, I'm not opposed to ending this jutsu."
"Of course, the main reason is, my agreement with Obito has been fulfilled. Naruto and the Eight-Tails have already headed to the battlefield, the rest, I'll leave to him."
"However, I have one condition: revive Lord Orochimaru. If you can do that, I'll undo all Edo Tensei except for the Uchihas."
"As for the Uchihas, hehe, I'm really looking forward to how Uchiha Obito will face them…"
