The Second Past?
🕑 Added 2021-08-07 10:45:57 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 168 ---
Yunlong turned around and saw a familiar-looking man who killed him in his second life.
"Uchiha Itachi." Yunlong's eyes widened in surprise because he didn't expect to meet him here.
Without further ado, Uchiha Itachi suddenly swung his katana toward him, which caused Yunlong to frown because this atmosphere was too good to be an insignificant illusion.
Yunlong dodged the katana slash and quickly observed the room around him slightly, finding not a single way out, which was not a surprise for some reason.
'Let's see...' Yunlong thought while trying to use his martial soul.
Clank!
It actually worked because a golden sword suddenly parried the katana, which caused Uchiha Itachi to frown at him.
"Who are you...?" Uchiha Itachi asked with a cold expression because there is no such skilled sword user in the Uchiha Clan.
Yunlong calmly released a sigh and observed this situation for a second. "Calm down... Let's talk for a moment." He said while looking at Itachi.
"I'm not your enemy, but I won't hold back if you decide to keep your mission." He continued, which caused Itachi to frown a little bit more.
They stared at each other for a good two minutes and drew back each other's swords. "Who are you...?" Uchiha Itachi once again asked, to which Yunlong responded with a sigh.
Yunlong couldn't help but think this joke isn't funny anymore and that angel god should have some hand in this matter.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Yunlong." Yunlong calmly answered, which caused Itachi to become confused.
"You're not Uchiha?" Uchiha Itachi responded with a confused tone because he was sure everyone should be in the clan compound.
"No, I'm Uchiha, but I have already overlooked my former name," Yunlong casually stated while chuckling a little because what he only remembered was a cold katana through his chest.
Yunlong was also weirdly really calm when standing in front of Itachi, even though he knows this man killed him in the past.
"Whatever, that's not important." Yunlong continued and slightly moved toward the window, looking at the red moon shining brightly.
Uchiha Itachi still tightly grasped his katana and was ready to kill Yunlong at any second, but what came next from Yunlong's mouth literally shocked him.
"Is it worth it killing your entire clan for those elders?" Yunlong casually commented, which slightly widened Itachi's eyes in surprise.
Uchiha Itachi activated his sharingan and warily looked at Yunlong. "Just who are you? How did you know?" He asked.
Only a few people know about this operation, which is an exception for one person, Uchiha Madara, but that man should have waited for him outside of the clan compound.
Yunlong once again released a sigh because he doesn't know how to get out of this illusion, which should be a part of the angel god's trial.
He turned around and quietly observed Itachi with a prying gaze because this man's horrible future started from tonight.
"It's the same, huh." Yunlong moved his gaze to the crimson moon, which is the first thing he noticed before he died.
Yunlong closed his eyes and heightened his sense to feel everything around him, which felt familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.
The quiet night winds washed through the Uchiha Clan, and dead bodies lay around on the street, which caused him to shake his head in wonder.
'So, I'm the last person he should eliminate before he kills his own father and mother...' Yunlong thought while moving his spiritual sense to a nice-looking house east side of the clan compound.
Uchiha Fugaku aimlessly looked at the moon with Uchiha Mikoto sitting beside him. They kept the moment so serene even though they knew they were about to die.
'Neo...' Yunlong called his system, and a monotonous voice appeared in his head, which caused him to smirk a little.
[Do you need my help, Host?]
'What's my current situation because there is no way this could be a mere illusion, right?' Yunlong asked.
[Your body was still on Heaven's Stairs, Host]
[However, your soul seemed entered a great illusion realm similar to your past]
'Is there a way out of this place?' Yunlong questioned with a frown.
[Scanning...]
[...]
[You have to solve what you regretted in the past]
"Huh?" Yunlong was baffled in surprise because he doesn't have any regrets.
"Ah, maybe I have one, but...' He continued with a wry smile on his face.
Yunlong actually regrets not deleting his browser history, but that's in his first life, which doesn't make sense because he was in his second life world now.
'My regret...' Yunlong thought while thinking deeply about his second life, which is blurry because it ended almost instantly.
He tried to uncover his past but found nothing except for the boring life of a young man, who had lost everything except one person.
"Who?" Yunlong looked at the person's silhouette but found it blurry because he couldn't even see the person's face.
"I'll be out for a moment. I will find you later, Uchiha Itachi." Yunlong suddenly jumped out of the window and disappeared from Itachi's view.
"Wait..." Uchiha Itachi hurriedly chased after him, but Yunlong had already teleported himself away.
Yunlong looked around at the Uchiha Clan and saw what he sensed before, which was rather unsightly. Especially for someone with a weak heart.
He casually threw a golden needle toward a small mountain behind the clan compound and observed the area, discovering four familiar faces on a wide stone wall.
"Hashirama Senju."
"Tobirama Senju."
"Hiruzen Sarutobi."
"And the fourth... Namikaze Minato."
Yunlong looked at every Hokages's face and shook his head a little because it seemed his regret had nothing to do with them.
A spatial disturbance suddenly appeared behind Yunlong's back, and a masked man came out of space swirls, which was somewhat the same as the Bone Douluo.
"Hee... I thought he had killed everyone except for his parents. But to think one person survived, what a surprise." The masked man commented while looking at Yunlong with his sharingan.
"Well, I only have to finish the job." He continued while swiftly approaching Yunlong.
Yunlong looked at him and dodged his attack by taking a few steps back, which caused the masked man to look at him in surprise.
"Oh, you can dodge that?" He looked at him with a curious gaze.
The masked man's eyes darkened for a second and approached Yunlong again, but he dodged them perfectly without letting him land a single attack.
Yunlong casually brushed a speck of dust off his clothes and casually commented, "Is it fun playing to be someone else."
"Uchiha Obito."
