My clan was exterminated when I was three years old, and you want me to beat Uchiha Itachi? Chapter 049

Previous attempts in the simulations had proven that the idea of defeating the invading enemies was completely unfeasible!

Among Itachi Uchiha and Obito, even Obito, who had weaker basic qualities, inner flaws, and let his guard down, could still hold his own against Uchiha Setsuna. This was despite Setsuna only possessing such power after transplanting future Sharingan.

But even with such power, and the intelligence on Obito’s Kamui provided by Uchiha Kirin, Uchiha Setsuna could only take a one-sided beating. His dōjutsu power and lifespan continuously drained, making him weaker with each passing moment. Once Obito activated Wood Release, it was a dead end!

Ultimately, it was through Uchiha Kirin’s psychological warfare, relying on his foresight to expose Obito’s weaknesses, that caused Obito and Itachi to wear each other down.

After dispelling Obito’s vigilance, Kirin ambushed him in the Kamui dimension while Obito was dealing with Itachi, forcing him to use Izanagi. Then, by fighting Obito, whose chakra was almost depleted, Kirin narrowly managed to kill him…

However, compared to Obito, Itachi Uchiha’s innate stubbornness made his heart completely flawless. Furthermore, his ninja skills were almost maxed out; he was extremely calm, showed no emotional changes, countered every move, and acted without any hesitation.

Anyone with slightly less strength than him couldn’t possibly defeat Itachi Uchiha!

After so many simulations, even though he still wanted to stand and fall with this clan, reason and the brutal reality made Uchiha Kirin completely understand one thing: no matter how much effort or unity the weak put in, it was meaningless in front of true power!

The strong were meant to brutally humiliate the weak!

The current Uchiha clan, excluding the complacent Fugaku Uchiha, had only a few elders and a handful of clan elders from various branch families as their strongest members on the clan’s side.

Although they possessed strength above that of a jōnin, their aging bodies prevented them from fighting for extended periods. Even with the clan territory as their base and activating the barrier in the ancestral shrine, consuming their Sharingan reserves without restraint, they could at most hold their ground. Ultimately, they would still be devoured by Konoha!

If Uchiha Setsuna, who had transplanted Kirin’s Sharingan, was included, he could be considered a semi-Kage level expert. Yet, this semi-Kage level expert struggled immensely against a holding-back Obito, let alone facing Itachi Uchiha, who was at his peak before the bloodline disease flared up!

Even if Uchiha Kirin had the ability to integrate all the Uchiha clan’s powerhouses within half a day and mobilize the entire clan, they would most likely not be a match for Obito and Itachi Uchiha!

Even if they miraculously defeated these two, Konoha would have no reason to spare the severely weakened Uchiha clan!

Not to mention, the Uchiha, who had enjoyed a long period of peace, could not be integrated by a three-year-old child like him in just half a day!

“No time to train, can’t win the fight… I guess I’ll just have to run away!”

While the act of abandoning ship when disaster strikes might be considered extremely immoral for both Qi Lin, who grew up under the red flag in his previous life, and Uchiha Kirin, who is now a member of the “clan of love,” things had come to this, and there was no other option…

Trying to save the Uchiha clan from the combined might of two Kage-level experts, or even the two strongest individuals currently known in the ninja world, was simply wishful thinking.

Fortunately, through these numerous failed attempts, Uchiha Kirin had gradually conceived an escape plan with a certain degree of success.

And now, it was time to test and refine it!

“Simulator, activate!”

[Simulation begins]

[ 5:00 AM]

You knew deep down that Itachi Uchiha and Obito were unbeatable, so you chose the cowardly act of fleeing.

You took out the contract scroll and token to summon Boss Black Cat, and explained your preliminary plan to him.

Boss Black Cat immediately scolded you, but still reluctantly agreed to assist you with your escape plan, and also taught you the Summoning Jutsu for easy communication.

[ 6:00 AM]

You used the Transformation Jutsu, maintaining your harmless child-like appearance, and obediently finished breakfast at Granny Xuena’s house.

Meanwhile, Boss Black Cat suppressed his chakra, pretending to be an ordinary black cat, and stealthily ran out of the clan compound to scout ahead.

Through mental communication, you learned that no ninja were stationed around the Uchiha compound, but along several main roads leading to the compound, you found suspicious individuals, seemingly ninjas, walking back and forth on the streets, or staying in shops occasionally looking up to observe the street.

Such hidden sentries were actually very common in Konoha, as the essence of a ninja village was a military stronghold.

After Boss Black Cat found a secluded and bustling alley, you decided to set off immediately.

[ 7:00 AM]

You bid farewell to Granny Xuena, using the excuse of going out for exercise.

After buying two skewers of dango within the compound, you ate them as you walked, swaying, until you reached the outskirts of the compound.

You squatted on a raised stone, using the time it took to finish the dango, and secretly activated your Sharingan under the combined disguise of Chakra Suppression and Transformation Jutsu, observing your surroundings.

After confirming again that there were no suspicious individuals, you, relying on your small and inconspicuous stature, skillfully maneuvered through the ninjas returning home from missions.

[ 8:00 AM]

You continued along the main road, occasionally stopping to pick up stones from the ground and play with them, or chase butterflies fluttering in the grass, rolling and playing in the damp soil, making your once clean and tidy clothes muddy and wrinkled.

The Uchiha family crest, resembling a ping-pong paddle, on the back of your clothes was completely covered.

After this disguise in the mud, you now looked nothing like someone from the Uchiha clan, Konoha’s most prestigious family. Instead, you resembled a wild child who had just left an orphanage, living alone and curious about everything.

[ 9:00 AM]

With your disguise complete, you were not far from the end of the main road. Ahead, the road split into three forks:

The widest road in the middle led to Konoha’s commercial district. Continuing straight past the Hokage Office, you could reach the Ninja Academy and the other side of the village.

The road turning right was a bit quieter but the cleanest. This way led to the clan compounds of the Hokage’s direct lineage, as well as the Hokage Rock and the Anbu headquarters.

As for the dirt road on the left, it was the narrowest and dirtiest. In a chaotic shantytown populated by refugees and orphans from all over, countless winding paths branched off, eventually connecting to the main road that led directly to the outskirts of the village!

This area was a mixed bag; unknown civilian orphans could rise to become jōnin, while many refugees quietly died from fighting and hunger. At the same time, many spies from other villages with ulterior motives, selling information, also lurked here…

And this road was the escape route you had chosen for yourself.

Just as you were about to enter the messy street on the left, Sasuke’s figure flashed across the corner of your vision.

You instinctively activated your Sharingan and turned to look, finding Sasuke happily following behind Itachi Uchiha, chewing on a sweet treat, with a ninja tool pouch tied to his waist, clearly on his way to school.

Good, very good!

You dared not look further, quickly flashing into the shantytown.

But at this moment, Itachi Uchiha seemed to sense something. He motioned for Sasuke to stop and not wander off, then with a flash, he leaped into the path you had just taken.
