Chapter 118: The End of Uchiha Itachi
There was no need for further words—today, Uchiha Yuta was going to utterly destroy Uchiha Itachi.
In other words...
Uchiha Itachi would be thoroughly tortured and killed.
Originally, Yuta had regretted letting Uchiha Itachi escape on the night of the Uchiha clan's extermination. But now? Itachi had returned to Konoha of his own will—shamelessly.
Perhaps, just like in the original timeline, death truly was the best destination for Uchiha Itachi.
Whoooosh—!!
The moment Uchiha Yuta's fully manifested Susano'o appeared, a terrifying pressure erupted without warning. In the blink of an eye, it completely overpowered Uchiha Itachi's aura.
Now—
As the acknowledged god of the ninja world, even Yuta himself might not fully comprehend how overwhelming his presence had become. But one thing was certain—
He was far stronger than Whitebeard now.
> "What terrifying pressure!"
> "Even if Uchiha Itachi enters Sage Mode, his Susano'o can't compare to Lord Fifth Hokage's..."
> "Lord Yuta is truly a monster..."
After the enormous blue Susano'o took form, the Konoha shinobi, though long aware of how strong their Hokage was, still gasped in astonishment as they felt that oppressive might once again.
"Let's get out of the way."
Hinata Hyūga, visibly relieved by the sudden turn, picked up the wounded Nara Shikaku and quickly retreated to a safer area.
"Very well."
Uchiha Fugaku cast a fierce glance at Itachi's red Susano'o, then turned and left. This path was one Itachi had chosen himself—he would face the consequences alone.
> "Such overwhelming power and majesty...!"
> "Amaterasu...!"
Whoooosh—!!
In the next instant, a dense wave of ocular power surged outward.
Everyone watched as Itachi's red Susano'o raised the Totsuka Blade, now enveloped in black flames and infused with Sage Chakra. The energy was overwhelming.
> "Die!"
Swish!!
With a roar, the red Susano'o slashed at Yuta's blue Susano'o using the blazing Totsuka Blade.
"Well done."
Seeing Itachi take the initiative to attack, Uchiha Yuta remained calm. With a low command, the blue Susano'o raised its titanic Cloud-Cutting Blade, now empowered with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Shockwave. Without hesitation, he counterattacked.
CLANG!!!
The weapons collided in a blinding flash.
The impact from the clash between the Totsuka Blade and Cloud-Cutting Blade unleashed a monstrous shockwave, making the entire village of Konoha tremble violently.
> "Is... is the real battle beginning?"
Many Konoha ninjas swallowed hard at the sight.
But...
The battle stalemated for only a few seconds before Itachi's red Susano'o began to falter. It was pushed back, staggering dozens of steps, leaving two deep trenches in the ground.
> "What incredible power..."
Inside the red Susano'o, Itachi's face twisted in disbelief. He had not expected Yuta's complete Susano'o to possess such overwhelming strength.
Even though both had manifested full forms, the gap between them was unmistakable...
> "Too weak."
Controlling the massive blue Susano'o, Uchiha Yuta smirked coldly. "Itachi, this farce of yours ends now."
At those words, Itachi's face turned pale.
Because—
Under his gaze, Yuta's Cloud-Cutting Blade erupted with an even more terrifying force and came crashing down upon him.
> "I can't dodge...!"
Itachi gritted his teeth and hastily raised the Totsuka Blade to defend.
CLANG!!
This time, Yuta was no longer holding back. The moment their blades clashed again, the black flames and Sage Chakra surrounding Itachi's sword were shattered by Yuta's glowing shockwave power.
And that was just the beginning—
CRACK—!
With a crisp snap, the Totsuka Blade shattered under the combined force of Armament Haki and shockwave power, allowing the Cloud-Cutting Blade to cleave straight through the red Susano'o.
BOOM!!!
A deafening explosion echoed through the battlefield.
Before countless stunned gazes, Itachi's red Susano'o was cleanly sliced in half, revealing his battered form inside—blood streaming from his Mangekyō Sharingan, his right arm mutated from Hashirama's cells, with an eerie white mass protruding from his chest.
> "Impossible...!"
Staring in horror at his broken Susano'o, Itachi's face was pale with disbelief. Despite transplanting Hashirama's cells and mastering Sage Mode, he had still been utterly crushed.
> "Die!"
Swish—!
Without mercy, Yuta shot out from his blue Susano'o and grabbed Itachi by the throat midair.
> "So fast...!"
Itachi's face twisted in panic. He wanted to move—but it was too late.
Uchiha Yuta's cold gaze bore into him as he slowly tightened his grip.
"Hahaha..."
Unexpectedly, Itachi laughed.
This—this was the moment he had been waiting for.
> "Izanami...!"
Itachi forced his bloodied Sharingan to activate, hoping to use the forbidden Uchiha technique.
But—
POP—!!
Just as he activated it, darkness swallowed his vision.
With a casual motion, Yuta plucked both of Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan from their sockets.
> "AAAHHHH—!!"
Itachi screamed in agony.
> "Trying to use forbidden jutsu in front of me? You think too highly of yourself."
Yuta sneered as he glanced down at the bloody Sharingan in his hand. "These eyes—thanks for the gift."
> "You...!"
Itachi collapsed completely.
He had been waiting for the perfect moment to trap Yuta in Izanami, to place him in eternal repetition.
But Yuta saw through everything.
> "White Zetsu. Go back and tell Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito—I'm coming for them all."
SLASH!
With that, Yuta thrust his hand into Itachi's chest and yanked out the white Zetsu clinging to his heart.
> "Uchiha Yuta, you—"
BOOM!!
Before it could finish speaking, Yuta crushed White Zetsu into dust.
A gaping wound opened in Itachi's chest. After a brief spasm, he lost all will to resist.
> "Why... why...?"
> "I only followed the Will of Fire. Why must it end like this? Why doesn't anyone understand me?"
> "Hahaha... I slaughtered the Uchiha clan, killed my parents—for Konoha... Was I truly wrong?"
Each blow shattered a piece of Itachi's fragile spirit.
He still didn't understand why Uchiha Yuta had appeared on the night of the massacre...
> "Sasuke... I'm sorry..."
CRACK—
Still trapped in his delusion, Itachi didn't resist as Yuta clenched his fist and twisted his neck.
For a traitor—no redemption.
Death was the only answer.
