**************
At dinner time, Hinata and the others prepared a sumptuous meal.
Colt's stomach, which had been empty for ten days, was finally satisfied.
He also inquired about any recent events.
He had already made an agreement with Jiraiya to go to the Hidden Rain Village after his training.
But he hadn't expected it would take so long.
Colt was relieved to hear that Jiraiya hadn't gone alone, but had returned to Mount Myōboku to train with Naruto.
He had worried that if Jiraiya had been in a hurry and couldn't hold back, he might have gone first, and the plot would have returned to its original starting point.
After dinner, Hinata and Ino returned to their respective homes.
They had been staying at Colt's house for the past few days out of concern for him, but now it was time to go back.
As for Kurenai, and Temari, one was alone, and the other was from Sunagakure, so they had been living in Colt's house.
The two naturally stayed.
However, it was good that one other person was there.
Colt couldn't do whatever he wanted at night, as that would be treating Yakumo as deaf and blind. With her there, he was still a little shy.
In desperation, he could only sleep in plain sight.
The next day, Colt was going to find Jiraiya's communication toad left in the village to tell him that it was time to go to the Land of Rain.
But before going out, Colt felt that a [Flying Thunder God] mark was activated.
Swish!
His figure disappeared from the courtyard and instantly appeared by a small river outside Konoha.
Seeing the shark swimming there, Colt knew it was Kisame's doing.
After seeing him, the shark spat out a scroll and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Are Sasuke and Itachi going to fight?"
After reading the information, a playful smile appeared on Colt's lips.
How could he miss such a good show?
He sent a Wood Clone back to pass on the news, while Colt himself rushed towards the Uchiha hideout mentioned by Kisame.
At the clan grounds, Itachi and Kisame had arrived first.
Looking at the dilapidated and overgrown with weed buildings, Itachi fell silent.
When the Uchiha were strong, he had visited many times.
Unfortunately, it had all been swept into the ruins of history now.
"Kisame, help me stop the others later. Don't let them disturb my fight with Sasuke Uchiha."
Leaning against what was once his father's position, Itachi spoke softly with a dignified expression.
This might be the most difficult battle of his life.
He needed to put pressure on Sasuke and let him win without leaving a doubt in Sasuke's mind.
The level of difficulty required him to be cautious again and again.
"No problem. I heard that among Sasuke Uchiha's companions, there is a descendant of the Hōzuki clan. I'd like to play around with the guy," Kisame said, looking at Samehada as he went out.
In a dark place, Obito and White Zetsu were hiding, ready to watch the battle.
Obito was also very wary of Itachi.
The guy's intelligence and eye abilities were top-notch.
If it weren't for the drawbacks of the Mangekyō Sharingan, he would be even more dangerous. Obito was also unsure of Itachi's thoughts.
Had he saved Sasuke in order to transplant his eyes and restore his sight? Or were there other plans?
If it was the former, then he must destroy Sasuke's Sharingans and prevent Itachi from succeeding.
But if Sasuke won, it didn't matter.
With Sasuke's intelligence and character, awakening the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan wouldn't be a big deal either.
On the contrary, he could be a useful tool.
Meanwhile, Kisame stood outside the shrine to greet Sasuke's team.
Samehada swept out, forcefully blocking the path of the four.
"Sorry, only Sasuke Uchiha can enter here."
Suigetsu wanted to say something, but Sasuke stopped him.
"Exactly. I feel the same way. You don't need to interfere in the matter between Itachi Uchiha
and me."
After speaking, he ignored Kisame and walked inside.
The remaining three stood vigilantly in place.
Suigetsu eyed Samehada with interest.
"Shark face, want to have a little match?"
Suigetsu's ambition was to collect the seven ninja swords, and now that he had met Kisame,
his hands were itching for a fight. Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Little brat of the Hōzuki family, I also want to see how much you've inherited of their
power."
There was a smile on Kisame's face.
It would just be a warm-up. But one he would enjoy.
"Hello, hello, can you hear me?"
At that moment, Colt's voice sounded in Kisame's mind.
"Colt-san?"
"Good, it seems to be working. You should wait for me and..."
"Are these Sasuke's new teammates?"
Through Kisame's vision, Colt also saw the situation in front of him.
"What kind of secret technique is this? It's amazing," Kisame thought silently, realizing he
could communicate with Colt this way.
"It's an improvement on the Yamanaka clan's technique. Now then, did Sasuke just go in?"
Colt's voice sounded a little excited.
If he hadn't been concerned about revealing his presence, he probably wouldn't have let the
duel between the two brothers proceed.
He would have come over in person long ago.
Now he could only hide far away, and through the Yamanaka clan's technique, project his
spiritual body onto others and share their vision.
Kisame naturally heard the excitement in his boss's voice and was a little speechless.
Was it appropriate to be so eager to watch two brothers fight to the death?
"But I still have to stop these guys in Sasuke's group, so I can't go in and watch the battle."
Suigetsu found it strange that Kisame had stopped attacking.
"Shark face, if you don't make a move, I will."
With that, he slashed at Kisame with his executioner's blade.
Clang!
Using Samehada to block the executioner's blade, Kisame kicked out, and Suigetsu
immediately flew back.
"Don't bother me." Kisame suddenly had a different demeanor.
Now the one controlling Kisame's body had become Colt.
Like the Mind Body Switch Technique, Colt could also manipulate the body by suppressing
the consciousness of others.
"I'll help you deal with these people, and then let's go in and watch the show."
Chakra energy converged towards the eyes.
Kisame's small, green eyes turned into the Three Tomoe Sharingan.
"[Genjutsu: Sharingan]!"
Faced with the huge gap in strength, Suigetsu, Jūgo, and Karin fell into the genjutsu instantly,
unable to move.
But their hearts were in turmoil.
What the hell?
How could this person have the Sharingan?
Could it be that Kisame was also an Uchiha?
Uchiha Kisame?
"Okay, it's done. They won't be able to move for a while."
Kisame, who had lost control of his body, laughed bitterly inwardly.
It was truly domineering.
But that was fine.
After all, it was Itachi-san's last fight, and Kisame would love to see it end with his own eyes.
At the same time, inside the clan grounds, Sasuke and Itachi were staring at each other intently, motionless.
