178 Chapter 178: Sasuke's Shocker and Mikoto's Embarrassment

"Mikoto, are you really planning to follow Natsuo?" Kushina said with resentment on his face: "What despicable and shameless threat did he use against you again?"

"No, it's my own decision." Mikoto sighed softly. "I can't watch Sasuke and Itachi go on like this."

"You see Sasuke working hard and your eyes are full of envy, but I see him working hard, and all I can feel is worry..."

'I am worried that one day I will really see the scene where Sasuke and Itachi kill each other. At that point, it will be too late for me to do anything.'

and...

"I think you probably won't be able to escape his clutches in the end." Mikoto smiled wryly: "Who let him know our weaknesses..."

"Hmph! I won't give in to him!" Kushina raised her head proudly: "No, it should be said that he should give in to me sooner or later!"

Pakura also snorted coldly. 'Giving in? Impossible!'

Her greatest enemy, Rasa, has become the hero of Sunagakure thanks to Natsuo. His prestige is above all and the Suna Shinobi treat him like a god. And all of this was Natsuo's fault.

"But if you don't give in, will things change?" Mikoto looked at the two stubborn women. "Kushina, can you really stand to see Naruto being discriminated against?"

"Pakura, looking at Rasa's full life, will you really be at peace?"

"The regret in our hearts, if we don't give in, who will help us solve it?"

Mikoto didn't continue speaking, she just shook her head. She believed that the two women would realize this sooner or later.

Then she calmly entered Natsuo's residence and told him her intentions very directly.

"Are you sure?" Natsuo looked at Mikoto and said seriously: "Mikoto, I'm actually not in a hurry, you can still think about it slowly..."

"There is no need." Mikoto took a deep breath: "I've thought about it for a long time..."

"That's good." Natsuo nodded: "I will begin to take care of Sasuke and Itachi's affairs, and make preparations for your resurrection..."

"But in a short time, I can't solve the problem of your resurrection."

For now the best way to resurrect Miko is to prepare a container to transplant the Rinnegan and then control it to resurrect Mikoto. But Natsuo prefers to wait a little longer and find a more perfect way of resurrection. Since this method will only resurrect Mikoto in a state before her death, and he would prefer to revive her with a body that was in the best moment of her life.

For now he has begun to make improvements in ninjutsu together with Kabuto, but there is still no solution.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the matter between Itachi and Sasuke is resolved." Mikoto said softly: "My resurrection....do it if you can, and I don't blame you if you can't.

'Of course you are not in a hurry, after all, as long as the matter between Sasuke and Itachi is resolved, you will be satisfied. Even if you die later, you don't care. But I still need you to have my children.' Natsuo frowned. "I'll hurry up."

Natsuo hesitated to use the Kotoamatsukami on Orochimaru to make him completely loyal to him and make him dedicate himself to researching the things he needs the most, but he feels a little reluctant to use such a useful technique when it is not something urgent. In the end he decided to assign all of his shadow clones to force the investigation forward.

Don't look at Natsuo's daily focus on reviving the Uchiha clan, but in fact, he uses his clones to handle many things related to the Uchiha clan. And due to his strong mental power he can use many shadow clones, this has also caused him to accumulate a lot of knowledge and research experience over the years and can be considered a leading research talent in the shinobi world.

He can't compare to talented scientists like Orochimaru and Yakushi Kabuto, but Natsuo can rely on the system's rewards to give him solid knowledge in many ninjutsu and sealing techniques, along with the accumulation made by his clones.

In Natsuo's opinion, the strongest ninjutsu created by the Second Hokage is the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

"Let's see and arrange a meeting for you and Sasuke later." Natsuo paused and said: "You can also explain to him about Itachi and enlighten him.

...

During the night...

After Sasuke finished today's practice, Natsuo called him over.

"Sasuke, I called you here today because I want you to meet someone." Natsuo paused and looked at Mikoto.

Mikoto was silent for a moment, then dropped her hat, revealing her face.

"Mom?!" Sasuke was taken aback for a moment, but then his eyes widened: "No, she is dead, and who are you with these cracks?!"

It must be said that Sasuke has also grown a lot after experiencing the tempering of the War. He suddenly became alert, jumped back, and at the same time took out the kunai, and the pattern of Sharingan appeared in his eyes.

"This is Mikoto." Natsuo coughed. "This is the ninjutsu left by the Second Hokage, called 'Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation', which uses the DNA of the deceased as a means to summon him from the Pure Land..."

Natsuo then continued: "Sasuke, don't you really want to know the truth about the Uchiha clan genocide and Uchiha Itachi's motives?"

"Why don't you ask the person involved?"

But even if Natsuo said so, Sasuke still had a bit of vigilance in his eyes.

The effect of the Impure World Reincarnation is too surprising, and staying alert against everything is what a shinobi should do. But after Mikoto told something about Sasuke's childhood, Sasuke gradually let go of his guard.

When he heard the truth about the Uchiha clan's genocide and Itachi's motives, he gritted his teeth.

"So the Third Hokage and Danzo took advantage of Itachi's mental instability to manipulate him, and used the clan's rebellion as an excuse to force him to kill them all?"

Although Natsuo vaguely revealed some information before, making him doubt what happened during the clan genocide, he never expected the truth to be like this!

"Yes." Mikoto nodded and then hurriedly said: "But you can rest assured, both the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo were killed by Natsuo."

The Third Hokage was actually killed by Natsuo? Sasuke must have been surprised to hear this news in the past. But now he simply gave Natsuo a complicated look. 'No wonder Natsuo-aniki entrusted me with the task of taking revenge on Itachi. It turned out that he had always set his sights on the real culprit who killed the clan!'

"Natsuo-aniki, you already knew?" Sasuke's expression was complicated.

"Well, more or less." Natsuo nodded: "I am not as young as you, I know the relationship between the clan and the village well, and Konoha's small actions after the destruction of the clan are also visible."

"However, it is a pity that you and I at that time did not have the ability to resist Konoha, and rashly revealing the secret will only worsen our situation."

Sasuke had an ugly expression, he gritted his teeth, his hands clenched tightly, and his nails dug into his flesh.

He was silent for a long time, and couldn't help asking: "Natsuo-aniki, where is Danzo's body? Where is Third Hokage's body?" He couldn't help but want to go to their graves and destroy their corpses to vent his anger.

"Danzo is now in the Uchiha clan's laboratory and although he is still alive, his condition is worse than being dead." Natsuo smiled slightly: "As for the Third Hokage, it seems that he is buried in the Konoha cemetery."

"But you should know that I got the Impure World Reincarnation from Orochimaru... Now, it is more than certain that the Third Hokage's corpse is in Orochimaru's hands, serving as reserve material for the Impure World Reincarnation."

The corners of Sasuke's eyes twitched, and he was sullen, but he had nowhere to vent. Sharingan flickered in his eyes, with a faint sense of anger. Stimulate it again, maybe it can open the Mangekyo directly.

"Cough, cough." Natsuo said: "Sasuke, this is how it is, this is the truth about the genocide of the Uchiha clan... Do you still want to take revenge on Itachi?"

"His health is very bad. In order for you to inherit his eyes in the future without accidents occurring, he deliberately let his illness consume him."

"These things must be resolved, otherwise, whatever decision you make, he may not live until then."

Sasuke opened his mouth when he heard the words but stopped talking. He remained silent for a long time and said with a wry smile: "Natsuo-aniki, I don't know how to feel about Itachi."

"On the one hand, I know it was circumstances that led to his actions, but that can't erase the fact that he killed the entire clan. The only thing I can say right now is that I don't want him to die."

"Natsuo-aniki, in the end he's still my brother..." Sasuke looked at Natsuo with a wry smile, his eyes full of self-deprecation: "I think mom can forgive him, but what about you?"

"Itachi killed not only the clansmen I knew, but also those you knew!"

"Natsuo-aniki, if I let Itachi go so simply, how can I ask you to forgive him for what he did to you?" Sasuke smiled bitterly, his body became weak, and he let out a long sigh.

Of course Sasuke can forgive Itachi.

As the younger brother who loves his older brother the most, the excuse of being manipulated by the Third Hokage is enough for Sasuke to forgive Itachi, no matter how serious the crime he committed, he will forgive him. The same goes for Mikoto, his mother.

But what about Natsuo? Natsuo has nothing to do with Itachi. Sasuke and Mikoto may forgive him, but what will happen to Itachi if Natsuo decides to take matters into his own hands?

Sasuke: 'Natsuo-aniki always took care of me. After the Uchiha clan was exterminated, he has been working hard to clean up the mess left by Itachi. He has paid a lot, working hard day and night to revive the Uchiha clan...'

'A person like that, how dare I ask him to forgive Itachi?' Am I even worthy of saying, I hope you can forgive Itachi too?'

Sasuke laughed at himself with a complicated expression.

Natsuo's expression was strange, but it was different from what Sasuke thought, in the Uchiha clan he had no acquaintances, and he certainly had no hatred towards Itachi.

Furthermore, if Itachi hadn't killed everyone in the clan, he wouldn't have been able to obtain the entire inheritance of the Uchiha clan, and he definitely wouldn't have the strength he has now!

"Actually, you don't have to think about my affairs." Natsuo said: "I have already forgiven Itachi."

Sasuke was surprised, a little confused. He couldn't help but said: "Natsuo-aniki, why did you forgive him?"

"Well... the main reason is that you can tell that Itachi has a relationship with me now." Natsuo coughed, then said: "If you don't mind, you can call me dad from now on."

"..." Sasuke stared at Natsuo, then at Mikoto next to him, who didn't dare look up.

...

Sasuke walked out of Natsuo's room in a daze.

His eyes were empty, and he seemed to have received a major blow. 'I considered you my brother, but you insisted on being my father? This is so...'

Mikoto also had a very embarrassed expression. As a mother, she was embarrassed to talk about these things in front of her son, and she felt very ashamed. "This should settle Sasuke's side." Although when Sasuke left he was a little dazed, the knot in Sasuke's heart had been untied and things were going well.

Next up is Itachi; This is quite simple compared to the young and impulsive Sasuke, the mature Itachi is easier to persuade.

With Fugaku's Mangekyo in Natsuo's hands, the deterioration caused by Itachi's use of the Mangekyo can be resolved. After that, you only need to treat the disease in his body.

Of course, this will take some time. Because although Natsuo has already contacted Itachi and summoned him to the Uchiha clan residence. But he still needs to avoid the surveillance of the other Akatsuki members...

But it will probably be within a month.

However, the issue of Mikoto's resurrection still needs to be resolved. Natsuo wants to revive Uchiha Mikoto as quickly as possible. Enjoy the service of a married woman. Natsuo is excited...
