- “I expect that I know everything about the Uchihas.” The masked man’s
- bouncing was replaced by a no-nonsense step as he moved toward Itachi. He
- walked very much like a ninja now. “My objective is that old man’s life. If
- you sit and watch quietly, I will spare yours.”
- “I’m a ninja of Konoha—” He felt a pressure like he was being choked, but
- he desperately forced his throat open enough to spit out the words.
- Like a frog under the watchful eye of a snake, his body wouldn’t move the
- way he wanted it to. Perhaps because of the man’s wordless pressure.
- Perhaps his instincts, sensing the difference between his own abilities and
- those of the man, refused to let him fight. Or perhaps all the blood in his body
- had collected in his head, as his brain frantically tried to analyze the
- inexplicable phenomenon that was the man’s body.
- Whatever it was, the fact remained that he could not move.
- I can’t come up with a clear solution to a situation I’ve been put in ...
- This was the first time in his life anything like this had ever happened to
- him.
- The masked man came up beside him. On his approach to the daimyo, it
- felt like he stopped next to Itachi. “Could you say what you said before one
- more time?” The man cocked his head to one side.
- “I am a ninja of Konoha,” Itachi said, hoarsely.
- “Does that indicate the you wish to die?”
- Die ... he thought vaguely.
- “You can become a good ninja. There’s no need for you to rush to your
- death here. Still, if you say you wish to die, then I won’t try to stop you.”
- Move, Itachi ordered his body.
- “Ngh!” As the half-groan escaped him, Itachi managed to move just his
- right arm. He beat at the mask with his right hand, bereft of even a kunai.
- Just like Tenma’s hand, his fist slipped through the face, and came flying
- out the back of the man’s head. He was sure the man was standing there
- before him, but no sensation of touch was communicated to his brain. The
- fear that he had already fallen prey to the man’s genjutsu grew in Itachi’s
- heart.
