Chapter 35

A single tomoe quickly spun in Sasuke’s eyes. Itachi gently closed his eyes, and the bloody scene filled with corpses vanished from Sasuke’s sight.

Sasuke dropped to his knees, gasping for breath, eyes locking onto Itachi with deep hatred.

“Why did you do this?! What’s wrong with you?!”

When Sasuke clearly saw Itachi’s calm face, his heart exploded with overwhelming anger.

He had killed their parents with his own hands—and yet he ...

“But how do you guys even use these eyes? Dig them out again and just... put them back in?”

Hatake Satoru leaned on Shisui’s shoulder and reached out to grab the bottle.

“?”

Shisui gave him a weird look, unsure if Hatake Satoru was joking or actually being serious.

He pulled the bottle away and held it to the side, just in case the guy actually tried to snatch it.

“I mean, we’re talking about eye removal here. Why does it sound ...

Chapter 33

Near the entrance of the Uchiha compound, bodies were scattered everywhere. These war-hungry radicals had at least managed to fight Hatake Satoru before dying.

Up ahead, the ground was marked with large, web-like craters, and some corpses were even smashed into the earth.

Each body looked like it had been hit by a powerful force of gravity.

But could someone really cause such destruction in just a moment?

The Root members who rushed over quickly scann...

Chapter 32

With just a couple of lines, Hatake Satoru gave away his identity.

Even though he wore a mask and looked a bit silly, anyone could tell at a glance—he was from the village's side.

But to the Uchiha clan, whether it was Anbu or Root, none of them were seen as good people.

“Only sneaky people wear masks! If you’ve got guts, take it off!”

One loud shout set off a wave, and in an instant, the crowd burst into noise.....................................

PAGS Chapter 31

Chapter 31

As soon as he entered the Uchiha district, Itachi rushed home. He had to stop his father before the coup began.

As long as he still had a choice, he wanted to protect his family.

His chest was filled with a wave of joy, especially after seeing that person.

Shisui—he might still be alive.

Everything that had been falling apart might still have a chance to turn around.

Ever since he became a double agent for both the village and the Uchiha clan, ...

PAGS Chapter 30

Chapter 30

Itachi looked up at the gate of the Uchiha compound and took a deep breath as he put on his mask.

He didn’t have much time left—he had to finish before Sasuke got back from detention.

Clang!

Just as Itachi was about to rush in, a kunai suddenly flew from behind and stabbed into the ground right next to his foot.

The sharp blade stuck in the earth and kept shaking, making a low ringing sound.

Itachi’s Sharingan spun to life. He grip...

Chapter 29

Obito's figure quickly disappeared into the dim forest. In the trees, a boy with a bandage on his face quietly revealed a single red Sharingan.

The two figures vanished, and the leaves rustled as they fell from above.

“Why do I have to stay for detention with you?”

Naruto laid his face flat on the desk, grumbling with no energy and full of complaints.

The classroom was totally empty now. Only the cold, white light above their heads stayed ...

PAGS Chapter 28

Chapter 28

Itachi’s figure quickly disappeared into the shadows of the forest. Hatake Satoru was just about to jump down from the branch—

When a kunai suddenly flew past and nailed itself into the tree right next to him.

“An ordinary person?”

Obito, who had already started walking in another direction, was somehow now standing under the tree.

His Sharingan couldn’t detect cursed energy, and he couldn’t sense any chakra from Hatake Satoru eithe...

Chapter 27

The solid feel of the attack gave Danzo a bit of relief.

If Hatake Satoru had been able to move, Danzo wasn’t even sure he could’ve landed a hit.

But now, it looked like there was no way he’d survive.

The sharp smell of blood filled the air. His white mask was now stained with red.

He stayed standing in the same pose as before, unmoving.

The wind spheres had punched huge holes right through his body, and the cuts from the wind blades left t...

PAGS Chapter 26

Chapter 26

The air around the black sphere spun faster and faster, all pulling inward. The moment Hatake Satoru spoke, the sphere shot forward.

That speed.

That power.

There was no way to dodge it.

“Damn it! When did you get down there?!”

Danzo gritted his teeth. He hadn’t expected the guy to be under him.

Just a second ago, all of Hatake’s movements were going upward.

The energy blast shot straight through Danzo in an instant and blaste...

PAGS Chapter 25

Chapter 25

People had broken into Root before, but never like this—walking in bold as day, not even trying to hide, with this kind of attitude? That was unheard of.

The mask was clearly for hiding his identity, but on this guy, it felt more like a way to mock them.

He walked in like he owned the place. It was obvious—he didn’t take anyone in Root seriously at all.

“Hey—Danzo, not here?”

Before the words even finished echoing, kunai rained dow...

PAGS Chapter 24

Chapter 24

Shisui glanced at the happy look on Hatake Satoru’s face, raising an eyebrow in hesitation.

If Satoru hadn’t clearly said it was his clan getting ready to act,

Shisui would’ve thought he was excited about a dessert sale next door.

“I know you’ve been looking forward to this.”

“But to everyone else, this is a serious matter... I think.”

So please wipe that huge smile off your face.

Shisui couldn’t help but com...

PAGS Chapter 23

Chapter 23

Shisui’s face darkened, looking pretty bad, and he stayed silent.

He was the one who threw that kunai.

He knew that if he died, everything would fall onto Itachi.

But he never expected that the clan would suspect Itachi had something to do with his death.

For a moment, he regretted the whole suicide plan.

He had meant to leave everything to Itachi, but not like this. He didn’t want his death to become a burden on Itachi’s shoulders.

H...

PAGS Chapter 22

Chapter 22

Hatake Satoru and Shisui had worked all night, and finally managed to transplant the Sharingan into Shisui’s eyes.

The two of them slept straight into the afternoon and missed most of the rumors that were going around.

Shisui was adjusting well to the new eyes, but he couldn’t handle bright sunlight yet.

He sat in front of a mirror, a little amused as he looked at his new look.

His curly hair had been straightened and now fell neatly on both sides ...

Chapter 21

Inside the Uchiha clan grounds.

Candles were lit inside the forbidden area, casting a dim glow on a stone tablet engraved with writing.

Outside the door, two Uchiha clan members stood guard on each side.

Fugaku stood in front of the tablet with his hands behind his back.

He had just recently heard the news of Shisui’s death, but word hadn’t yet spread within the clan.

By tomorrow morning, though, everyone would know.

Shisui’s death wo...

PAGS Chapter 20

Chapter 20

A spinning leaf floated down into the waters of the Nanga River.

Itachi stood silently at the edge of the cliff. The red Sharingan in his eyes spun rapidly with three tomoe.

At the moment the tomoe came together, he closed his eyes.

With Shisui’s death, Itachi was bound to awaken his eyes.

Leaning against the tree, Hatake Satoru quickly moved off the cliff.

Just a second before Shisui hit the water, Hatake Satoru grabbed his clothes and pulled ...

PAGS Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Before the smoke had even fully cleared, a glowing orange tomoe could be seen inside.

Then, a wave of green, glowing chakra arrows shot out.

The arrows rained down on the masked Root members like a storm.

Though the attack was powerful, it wasn’t very accurate.

The men dodged quickly, and once the arrows passed, the smoke finally cleared.

“What the hell is that?!”

One of them couldn’t help shouting, and the others tensed up.

E...

PAGS Chapter 18

Chapter 18

Danzo quickly raised his hand to block the sudden smoke and waved it away.

One of the Root agents nearby was suddenly thrown into the air. None of them had seen it coming.

Danzo turned to look at the man who was now smashed into a tree and gritted his teeth.

“Go after him! He’s badly injured—he can’t have gotten far!”

Right now, the priority wasn’t figuring out how the guy flew—it was catching Shisui.

Shisui already knew what they w...

PAGS Chapter 17

Chapter 17

The day of the Uchiha coup was getting closer.

The tension between the Uchiha and the village kept growing.

Hatake Satoru didn’t even need to ask around to know what was going on—just walking to and from class, he could see two or three arguments between Uchiha and villagers on the streets.

The Uchiha Police Department didn’t try to calm things down like before either. Now they looked more like, “If you’ve got a problem, we’ll beat you up.”

PAGS Chapter 16

Chapter 16

“We really couldn’t find a better place, so Itachi suggested we come here.”

“And as we walked over, we did notice there were fewer people the closer we got.”

Shisui picked up the conversation, pressed his palms together, and gave a friendly smile.

“It’s fine, don’t bother with all the polite stuff—just make sure you brought snacks.”

Hatake Satoru squinted his eyes and held out his palm to the two of them.

Shisui and Itachi exc...

“Is your new mission to admire the scenery here?”

A teasing voice suddenly spoke up.

Tenzo was peeking from behind a tree, completely focused, and the sudden voice from behind nearly made him jump.

He quickly made a hand sign, and with a “poof,” left a Wood Style clone in his place.

“Sa... Satoru?”

Tenzo jumped to the side and looked at Hatake Satoru with lingering fear.

Satoru rested one hand on the wood clone and leaned his fa...

Chapter 14

“Just Taijutsu...?”

Perched on a tree branch not far away, Orochimaru observed Satoru’s every move.

If Satoru couldn’t even handle this snake, then there was no need for Orochimaru to take action himself.

But now, things were getting interesting.

Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue, clearly amused.

The giant brown python twisted its body and pushed forward with all its strength.

But Satoru’s sing...

PAGS Chapter 13

Chapter 13

"Listening to him won’t help. There’s no other way now."

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was about to ask Shisui something, Danzo quickly cut in.

The Uchiha issue needed to be resolved as soon as possible. Shisui was an Uchiha himself, so he would definitely try to delay things and play both sides.

They couldn’t let him control the conversation now.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was well aware of Danzo’s desire for the Sharingan.

But after all,...

PAGS Chapter 12

Chapter 12

“Ah, who?”

Hatake Satoru paid, still holding the cotton candy, and turned around, looking a little confused.

“Satoru-san, you really are clueless about what’s going on...”

Tenzo glanced at Hatake Satoru, a few dark lines appearing above his head.

The situation was almost about to turn into a fight, and this guy hadn’t even noticed.

"Oh, that's right, this is the sarcasm I taught you before."

"I just want to eat this."

PAGS Chapter 11

Chapter 11

"So that’s the situation."

"Kinoe was his code name in Root. Now, he’s called Tenzo."

If it weren’t for the fact that the Hokage’s orders were absolute, Kakashi would never have agreed to this.

His forehead protector was tied loosely around his neck, and he stood at the doorway with his usual cold expression.

Beside him, Tenzo stood stiffly, holding a bag of sweets in his hand.

Hatake Satoru wore his usual black goggles, with a ...

PAGS Chapter 10

Chapter 10

The two guards at the door nodded slightly before taking the summons and heading inside.

After failing his mission, Kinoe was directly escorted back by Kakashi to face the Third Hokage.

Kakashi briefly explained the situation to Hiruzen but deliberately kept the details about the serpent’s defeat vague.

There was no logical way to explain it. At the time, Kinoe had been inside the serpent and hadn’t even noticed that person’s presence.

An...

Chapter 9

Hatake Satoru shook his wristwatch. The hands showed that there was still some time before class ended.

If he wasn’t mistaken, these little ones must have skipped class and snuck out.

Thanks to his genius little brother, Kakashi, Hatake Satoru had used his name to advertise himself as a tutor.

“My little brother is the genius ninja Kakashi, so of course, I know a lot about ninja studies too.”

If Kakashi ever heard that, he would definite...

PAGS Chapter 8

Chapter 8

The giant snake tilted its head back and swallowed Kinoe whole.

The small snakes that had scattered earlier quickly regrouped. Even though Kakashi wielded a kunai, he could only take down a few of them.

"Damn it!"

A few severed snakes fell to the ground, but Kakashi’s arm was still caught in the writhing mass.

Countless small white snakes coiled around him, layer upon layer, swallowing him up. Soon, the two of them would be completely consumed...

PAGS Chapter 7

Chapter 7

The secret base Orochimaru once left behind.

The massive door in front of Kakashi had been blasted apart, reduced to rubble. The ground still trembled faintly from the force of the explosion.

Orochimaru had long since abandoned this place. All that remained were some of the old traps he had set up.

As the dust settled, a foul stench—something rotten, mixed with the damp smell of earth—filled the air, revealing the ruined base inside.

It was ...

"Yes!"

The moment Naruto heard Hatake Satoru’s question, he instantly perked up, jumping high into the air.

"How about ramen? Do you like it?"

As he spoke, Hatake Satoru grabbed Naruto’s hand and led him toward Ichiraku Ramen.

Naruto blinked and looked down at their joined hands, his heart beating just a little faster.

Just like kids who have parents—this person was holding his hand!

And now, this person was even treating h...
