Don't be fooled by the appearance of the Third Hokage, who seems to represent the moderate fa, and the two advisors who seem to be pulling the strings. Iy, these three high-ranking individuals pyed roles in the Uchiha 's annihitiohat were er thahless hardliners. They were all unsavory characters who couldn't stand the light of day.

  Moreover, it was clear that the events of the 's annihition differed from the inal story in some way. While it couldn't be firmed one hundred pert, Naruto believed that in all likelihood, there were some clues exposed by Uchiha Itachi before he took a. These clues might have been discovered by the hardliner Uchiha members who were already pnning to rebel, leading to a partial uprising among the Uchiha . Otherwise, there was no way to expin the massive disturbahat occurred st night.

  And it must have been a partial uprising, quickly suppressed.

  Otherwise...

  The subsequent developments wouldn't make seher.

  After all, the Leaf Vilge's high-ranking officials had openly annouhe annihition of the Uchiha , leaving only the rogue ninja Uchiha Itachi and the surviving Uchiha Sasuke. This information was believable. In other words, the result of the Uchiha 's annihition was the same as in the inal story. From this, one could easily deduce the clusioioned above.

  After all, the Uchiha was the rgest the ninja world.

  If it had been a full rebellion, not just a partial one...

  Regardless of whether it could be fully suppressed or not, even if it could, it wouldn't have been so easy. Who knew how many high-level Uchiha shinobi there were in the Uchiha ? How many were at the in level? Plus, with the power of the Sharingan, often referred to as the best eye teique in the ninja world, even if the Leaf Vilge could kill all Uchiha ninjas as in the inal story, the process would have been much more difficult, and the resulting uprising wouldn't have appeared as chaotic as st night; it would have been more subdued.

  Of course, these thoughts were just Naruto's personal specutions, turning in his mind a couple of times.

  Naruto wouldn't pay too much attention to them.

  He didn't have the time or the energy to focus on such matters.

  Or should he say...

  At the moment, Naruto didn't have the capital or the qualifications to focus on them.

  As always, living his life to the fullest was the most important.

  ___________________________________________________________________________________

  Even though su event happe night, life at the ninja academy tinued as usual.

  However, when Naruto arrived at the school,

  He wasn't surprised to find that Uchiha Sasuke's presence was missing. He could evehat for some time to e, this Uchiha survivor wouldn't show up at the ninja academy. It wasn't just because of the impact of the 's annihition st night. If Naruto remembered correctly, st night Uchiha Itachi had used Tsukuyomi on Sasuke for the first time. It could be sidered a genjutsu ceiling that existed in the inal story for a long time. Even if Uchiha Itachi trolled its power to some extent, given the circumstances where Sasuke had witnessed his entire being killed, his dearest brother itting the murders right in front of him, and then subjected to Tsukuyomi,

  Whewo traumas were bined,

  This level of psychological trauma couldn't be healed in a short period. Even with the special care of the Third Hokage and access to the best medical ditions, such psychological wounds couldn't be healed by treatment alohey required time to recover.

  And it wasn't beyond Naruto's expectations.

  Starting from the night of the 's annihition,

  A whole month had passed.

  Only after this entire month had epsed did Naruto see Sasuke's figure once again in the .

  And this time, Sasuke, who had returo the ninja academy, was enveloped in an icy aura from head to toe. It wasn't the usual facade of ess, but a genuine sense of darkness and ess, as if he had fallen into darkness.

  And it was at that moment, upon seeing Sasuke,

  Something inside Naruto also twitched slightly.

  Because Naruto uood that the Uchiha Sasuke before him was no lohe same as the one who had seemed somewhat cool but was actually a bratty kid.

  He had transformed into an avenger with eyes filled only with the color of blood.

  On that day,

  The group of girls who had been hanging around Sasuke earlier

  Had bee unusually quiet.

  After all, although they were infatuated, they weren't stupid.

  In the wake of the Uchiha 's ret annihition,

  It would have been foolish to approach him.

  "Puy..."

  Looking at Sasuke, who had no expression on his fad still seemed somewhat numb in his eyes,

  Naruto shook his head quietly.

  In a sense,

  Sasuke and Naruto shared many simirities.

  "Perhaps this guy bee an important asset iure,"

  Naruto thought as he looked at Sasuke's profile.

  He couldn't help but recall the se in the inal story where Sasuke would eventually defect from Konoha after learning the truth about Itachi and the Uchiha 's annihition.

  To be ho,

  In this world,

  There robably no family mullible than the Uchiha .

  This gullibility seemed to be a tradition that had existed sint times.

  Starting from the earliest known period, the elder son of the Sage of the Six Paths, Indra, to notable individuals like Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha in ter geions.

  Even in more ret history, figures like Itachi and Shisui could be sidered gullible.

  Even the seemingly rational and opinionated Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui had a certain level of foolishness in Naruto's eyes.

  Of course, this was a very subjective and personal opinion.

  But when Naruto looked at these Uchiha individuals,

  He couldn't help but feel that they were easy to deceive.

  Especially Sasuke.

  Throughout the entire Naruto story,

  Sasuke never really had his own vis or opinions.

  He was easily swayed by his beloved brother, Itachi, and ter by Tobi.

  In the end, he was still deceived, wasn't he?

  So, all in all...

  Sasuke was gullible!

  And not to mention...

  Naruto held a huge trump card in his hands—the truth behind the Uchiha 's annihition!

  He couldn't say it was a hundred pert certain,

  But Naruto was fairly fident that he could use this knowledge to persuade Sasuke to bee an asset iure.

  Naruto thought to himself i.

  Of course, at this stage, it was still just a temporary pn.

  When to say it, how to say it, how to make Sasuke believe him, and other pros and s,

  Naruto would have to sider all of them carefully.

  A pn for the future.

  It was gradually taking shape in Naruto's heart.

  In this world, Naruto would undoubtedly carve out a different and brilliant path for himself.

  "The future..."

  Looking at the bustling sery outside the window,

  A faint golden glow shimmered in Naruto's blue eyes.

  What he o do at this moment was to tirengthening himself.

  In this way,

  His future self would have the qualification to influehe chessboard of the ninja world.

  And it was in such a situation that

  Five years passed by rapidly.
