Chapter 60: A Private Meeting with the Third Hokage
🕑 Added 2024-08-17 08:56:31 +0000 UTCIt’s safe to say that Naruto Uzumaki’s "mouth technique" is truly powerful!
It’s practically an unstoppable force, so much so that fans in the real world have jokingly referred to it as "Betsu-Ten-Mouth," showcasing just how impressive it is.
Take Gaara, for instance—a deeply troubled youth whose psyche had been severely twisted. But once "Betsu-Ten-Mouth" was unleashed, he quickly transformed into a bright and loving Kazekage!
Then there's Nagato, who created the Akatsuki organization and wielded the Rinnegan, making him a top-tier villain. With one Almighty Push, he decimated most of the Leaf Village.
But what happened next? Under the influence of Naruto's "Betsu-Ten-Mouth," Nagato immediately turned over a new leaf, sacrificing his life to resurrect everyone he had killed.
And let's not forget Uchiha Obito, another formidable antagonist and even the murderer of Naruto’s parents. What happened to him? He also succumbed to "Betsu-Ten-Mouth."
Not only did Obito help fight against Madara and Kaguya, but even after death, he sent his Sharingan from the afterlife to help Kakashi activate the Susanoo.
Look at the Nine-Tails too! Even it couldn’t resist and ended up as Naruto’s tool, or rather, his tool-fox!
So in many ways, Naruto’s "Betsu-Ten-Mouth" is even more potent than Shisui’s "Betsu-Ten-Shin."
If I had that kind of "Betsu-Ten-Mouth," there wouldn’t be any need to worry about the Uchiha massacre night at all!
“Betsu-Ten-Mouth?” Itachi’s mouth twitched slightly.
He was well aware of Shisui’s "Betsu-Ten-Shin."
Now, hearing Akira refer to Naruto’s talk-no-jutsu as "Betsu-Ten-Mouth," Itachi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Still, Itachi found himself paying more attention to Naruto after hearing Akira’s description.
Seeing the interaction between Sasuke and Naruto, Itachi silently nodded to himself. No matter how you look at it, this doesn’t seem like a bad thing.
“What were you and big brother talking about?” Sasuke asked curiously on the way back to the Uchiha compound, looking at Akira and Itachi.
“We were talking about Naruto Uzumaki. You two seem to be getting along quite well,” Akira replied with a smile.
“Not really. That guy’s just the class clown who won’t stop pestering me. We’re not that close!” Sasuke quickly shook his head in denial.
Watching Sasuke’s reaction, Akira couldn’t help but chuckle.
From the entangled fate of Indra and Asura, every time they reincarnate, these two brothers are bound to both love and battle each other.
It’s destiny—there’s no escaping it.
After returning home, Akira resumed his life simulation, focusing on training in the Eight Gates technique.
As for Itachi, he headed back to the Hokage’s office to report.
It was confirmed that Akira’s ability to predict the future was real.
However, this prediction wasn’t something that could be controlled at will. It was random.
“Understood. Thank you for your efforts, Itachi. This ability is very important to the village. Perhaps it could even help resolve the conflict between the village and the Uchiha clan,” the Third Hokage said, puffing on his pipe and nodding with apparent enthusiasm.
Itachi was touched by the Third Hokage’s words. The Hokage wanted to use Akira’s prediction ability to resolve the Uchiha clan's conflict with the village?
Itachi felt a glimmer of hope.
Could this really be possible?
Akira had mentioned that his predictions were only possibilities, not certainties. They could be changed.
If Akira predicted that Itachi might end up wiping out the Uchiha clan, then surely that outcome could be altered as well?
Once Itachi finished his report, the Third Hokage dismissed him with a wave, and Itachi left the office.
The Third Hokage then called an Anbu member and instructed him to summon Akira to the Hokage's office.
The masked Anbu quickly departed.
“The Third Hokage wants to see me? Alright, I’ll go right away!” Akira nodded when the Anbu delivered the message, not at all surprised.
Since Itachi was ordered by the Third Hokage to investigate his prediction ability, it made sense that the Hokage would want to meet him once it was confirmed.
“Be careful, my grandson!” the elderly Uchiha reminded him, a bit worried as he watched Akira prepare to leave.
After all, the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village had almost completely broken down.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa!” Akira replied with a smile, not feeling overly concerned.
Although Akira viewed the Third Hokage as a hypocrite, he was still a hypocrite who needed to maintain his image of kindness and benevolence.
Therefore, there was no way the Third Hokage would make a move against him.
