Looking at the indestructible giant before him, Sasuke truly fell into despair.
For every step Itachi took forward, Sasuke's body uncontrollably retreated one step.
Until, in the end, he had nowhere left to run and leaned back against a stone wall.
At this moment, the arrogance he had shown at the beginning was already gone.
Facing Itachi's ice-cold gaze, the fear and terror from many years ago surged up inside him once again.
But the death he imagined did not come. Instead, Itachi simply looked at him in silence.
Very quickly, Itachi arrived in front of him. Sasuke was so frightened that he desperately tried to shrink back, pressing himself tightly against the stone wall behind him.
Then, Itachi raised his finger and gently tapped Sasuke's forehead. His mouth seemed to move as he said something.
This scene left Sasuke stunned.
This action was something Itachi had loved doing to him in the past. Every time he did it, that movement carried Itachi's affection and indulgence toward him.
And this time was no exception.
His finger gradually slid down from Sasuke's forehead.
The life that symbolized Itachi's arrival at its end seemed to reach its conclusion at this very moment.
And in Sasuke's mind, as well as in the minds of the viewers before the screen, only the words Itachi spoke before his death remained.
"My foolish little brother… forgive me. I will always love you. Farewell."
As Itachi slowly collapsed, the video gradually came to an end.
After watching, everyone maintained their usual good habit and once again began posting all kinds of comments on the dimensional platform.
Yato: "Wuwuwu, this scene of deep brotherly love is too touching."
Natsu: "??? Upstairs, where exactly did you see deep brotherly love? Wasn't everything Itachi did clearly acted out?"
Jiraiya: "No… Itachi really did love his younger brother very much. But that said, Mr. Itachi losing to his little brother… no matter how I look at it, I find it hard to believe."
Tobirama Senju: "Upstairs, you don't need to question that little fellow named Itachi. At the time, he was already seriously ill. If it were an ordinary person, forget fighting such an intense battle—just standing up would probably already be extremely difficult."
Hashirama Senju: "Tobirama is right. And as an older brother myself, I understand that feeling very well. From beginning to end, his desire to protect his younger brother never changed."
Madara Uchiha: "As a fellow member of the Uchiha Clan, I understand this more clearly. The reason that little fellow overused his power to such an extent was that, by the final battle, he was practically already blind. And the burden brought by forcefully activating Susanoo was the final straw that crushed his life."
Looking at the flood of messages on the dimensional platform, especially when he thought back to Itachi's final words in the video, Sasuke's heart became chaotic.
The person he had always wanted revenge against seemed to have been protecting him all along.
And because his eyes had previously been blinded by hatred, he had never once been able to calmly analyze it.
Now that he had finally settled down and thought carefully, Itachi slaughtering the entire clan seemed to be filled with suspicious points.
And all of those questions pointed toward one place.
The higher-ups of that damned village!
From the looks of it now, he had to find an opportunity to escape the village and go find Itachi to question him face-to-face.
Once this thought appeared, it slowly took root and sprouted inside Sasuke's mind.
Rin Aokawa was also watching everyone's comments on the dimensional platform. Originally, he had wanted to guide the discussion a little, but now it seemed there was no need at all.
He understood Sasuke's personality. Once Sasuke saw these discussions, there would only be one result.
That was to make Sasuke harbor hatred toward the village, ultimately developing into revenge and killing.
Rin Aokawa leaned comfortably back in his chair. After relaxing, he began considering his next plan.
Right now, everything in the Naruto world could be said to be progressing according to his will.
Then it was time for the next world.
One Punch Man!
According to Rin Aokawa's understanding, there were far too many powerful people in this world to count.
And among all these powerful figures, Rin Aokawa already had the best candidate in mind.
Time passed silently.
Very soon, after a full day of editing, the work was finished.
With one click, he uploaded it.
[Top 7: Twisted Good, the Lone Hero]
The moment the video was uploaded, it immediately attracted countless viewers.
Inside an immaculate dojo, dozens of people wearing identical uniforms were practicing martial arts in a rigid and disciplined manner.
Just as everyone was training in full swing, the dojo's front door was suddenly opened, causing all of them to turn around in unison.
They saw a silver-haired man dressed in a dark tight-fitting outfit, his eyelids drooping as he lazily yawned. Unhurriedly, he walked toward the interior of the dojo.
"Senior Brother! Good morning!"
After seeing who had arrived, everyone immediately straightened their backs and greeted him loudly in perfect unison.
That was right.
The person who had arrived was Bang's most outstanding eldest disciple.
Garou.
In the face of everyone's enthusiastic greeting, Garou showed them no respect at all. Instead, after sweeping his gaze across the entire room, he casually grabbed someone and asked,
"Where's Master? Why don't I see the old man here?"
The person who had been grabbed was already used to Garou's fierce eyes. How could he dare resist? He immediately spilled everything he knew like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
"Earlier, someone came and said they wanted to invite Master to join an association. Master didn't say much and agreed. Counting the time, he should have left with those people by now."
"The Hero Association?"
Garou more or less understood this so-called association.
But unlike the others, he had no interest in this Hero Association. In fact, one could even say he was extremely disgusted by it.
In his view, the Hero Association was nothing more than hypocritical goodness.
Could it be that villains could not have kind hearts?
Did they absolutely have to be defeated by the so-called heroes people spoke of?
No!
Those principles were wrong.
They were one-sided.
Since even Master has betrayed me and chosen to join the Hero Association, then I'll prove by myself that villains can win too!
Then I'll start by becoming a villain!
After thinking this through, Garou slowly clenched his fists. In an instant, his gaze became terrifying.
After coldly sweeping his eyes across everyone present, Garou moved.
Flowing Water Rock-Smashing Fist!
With a burst of superhuman speed, he moved freely through the crowd. Before anyone could react, he had already easily dealt with several people.
Only ten minutes!
The entire place was already flowing with blood. Everyone had been beaten into severe injuries, and pained groans continued endlessly.
Garou stood in place as if enjoying it.
When the viewers outside the video saw this, they began posting their thoughts one after another.
Ash: "This guy is definitely mentally twisted. Evil is evil, and bad is bad. How can there be any such thing as a kind villain?"
Meliodas: "I don't agree with the person upstairs. According to what you're saying, does that mean all villains are bad?"
Yato: "I don't agree either. There is no absolute good or evil. It's just that everyone's starting point is different. Take Obito, for example. Although he was also a villain, if you think from his perspective, he actually didn't do anything wrong."
