Above Naruto

"cough cough"

In a secret room, violent coughs kept coming, echoing in the deep corridor.

Uchiha Itachi covered his mouth, his body was shaking violently, his face was wet with cold sweat, his coughing became more violent, his breath was not smooth, and there were bursts of tearing pain in his chest.

He was terminally ill and did not have much time left to live. The life force of his body was too severely overdrawn. When the oil was exhausted, death beckoned to him.

He encountered Naruto many times and used the Mangekyou Sharingan one after another. He was already overwhelmed. Even if his soul body could withstand that kind of power, the innate shortcomings of his physical body could never support him.

He leaned against the head of the bed, put down his palms, and slowly dripped bright red blood along his palms.

His eyes were dull, with a gray aura. This was the spread of death, converging, and appearing in the window of the soul.

If Tsunade sees it, she will definitely scream in surprise. This is a sign of death and she may fall at any time.

Uchiha Itachi struggled to swallow the pill, and the dim candlelight illuminated two black shadows.

"Itachi, your body"

Asked Kisame Shin, who was standing quietly at the side.

The relationship between the two in the Akatsuki organization is very good. As comrades, they have a tacit understanding and understand each other. He understands Uchiha Itachi's methods and his good intentions.

For this reason, he is even more worried. He does not understand the path Uchiha Itachi has chosen, otherwise

"It's okay, Kisame."

Uchiha Itachi waved his hand, his voice was very hoarse and seemed weak. He raised his hand with difficulty and placed it on his forehead. There was a broken forehead protector, which represented the Konoha ninja.

Now he is just a rebel ninja, walking between darkness and death.

"I don't have much time left. After all, Akatsuki is not a place to stay for a long time. You have to understand this."

he suddenly said

Kisame Kisaki was stunned for a moment, then showed his trademark shark-like sneer and said: "I don't care, I haven't defeated that brat yet, I must kill him with my own hands."

He gritted his teeth hard, his chakra fluctuated a little, and even the same shark muscles on his back were about to move.

Of course, Uchiha Itachi knew who he was talking about.

He couldn't help but recall the encounters he had had several times. His growth rate was so astonishing that he could no longer fight with him. Even the Mangekyou Sharingan was eclipsed.

There were fluctuations in his heart, and he couldn't help but cough violently again.

A long cough came from the secret room and echoed in the deep corridor.

Itachi Uchiha propped up his body, adjusted his clothes, wiped the blood from his palms, glanced at Kisame Kisaki, showed a rare smile, and patted him on the shoulder.

"I'm going to see Payne. Please be careful from now on."

He turned around and left. Kisame Mikigaki behind him was shaken, clenched his fists, and walked out of the room and walked in another direction.

Small fish were pitter-pattering outside, and the dark sky could be seen through the huge door. It rained here all year round, and I had long been accustomed to it.

Uchiha Itachi stood in the main hall, and on the Iron Throne headed by him, Tendo Payne Yahiko was sitting.

Expressive and cold as iron, this is just a puppet, only representing Nagato's consciousness, but it is also an agreement between Naruto and Konan.

"Uchiha Itachi, what's the matter?"

Tendo Payne looked at Itachi Uchiha, his voice was equally cold.

"Ahem." Uchiha Itachi coughed, suppressing the discomfort in his body and making a hoarse voice.

"I have used the Mangekyou Sharingan many times. There are not many days left. The Akatsuki organization no longer needs my power, and I no longer need Akatsuki. I want to leave."

After Uchiha Itachi finished speaking, he waited quietly.

After a long silence, Tendo Payne just looked at Uchiha Itachi and said nothing.

The two of them were also silent. The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Then, Payne broke the silence.

The corrugated Samsara Eyes were shining with a coquettish purple light, and the pupils seemed to be moving with invisible pressure.

"Akatsuki needs someone."

He just said one sentence.

This also represents what Nagato means.

There was no obvious change in Uchiha Itachi, and he said hoarsely: "What the Akatsuki organization needs is not me. Now only the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails are left. You are already capable enough to obtain what you need. I will take advantage of this period to do my own thing." Intend."

Pain stood up, walked to Itachi Uchiha, and said, "Kyuubi needs your help."

Uchiha Itachi looked directly at Tendo Payne, but he was actually looking at Nagato who was hiding in the dark, and said: "I don't have the ability to take down Uzumaki Naruto, but you and Fei should be enough. After all, you have the Rinnegan, the Six Paths The power is enough."

"I don't owe Xiao anything, and no one can stop my decision now."

Having said this, Uchiha Itachi's eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he wanted to pierce through Payne's pupils. His aura suddenly changed, and the air felt as if it was three cents colder.

The two of them were silent again, eerily silent.

Tiandao Payne has no expression and no emotion can be seen.

It was like an invisible contest. Neither of them spoke. Uchiha Itachi was too strong. He had never disobeyed an order before. This was the first time since he entered Akatsuki.

Perhaps during this time, he had already abandoned Xiao's identity.

"Let's go."

Tiandao Payne's unique cold voice sounded in the hall, deafening.

Uchiha Itachi walked out of the hall, the rain falling on his body, and a chill hit him.

In the main hall, a black shadow appeared, with a face in black and white, and a unique pitcher plant, it was Zetsu.

"Is it appropriate to let him leave like this?"

Bai Jue's voice was out of touch, and he couldn't help but feel regretful for losing such a good player.

"This is his choice, I'm just fulfilling it," Payne said.

Bai Zetsu's voice was filled with urgency as he said: "You should know the power of the Uchiha clan. Even if Itachi's body is not good now, his ability is still there and he can still bring good combat power to Akatsuki. When the time comes, Aren't you more confident about Uzumaki Naruto?"

What Bai Jue said was correct. He was targeting Akatsuki's interests. Uchiha Itachi's ability was extremely extraordinary. Only Payne could surpass the Akatsuki organization. The Killer Demon had already left, and only Payne could suppress it.

If such a person leaves Xiao, it will inevitably cause huge losses. He has to regret it, and his tone is full of complaints.

Payne glanced at the other person and said indifferently: "You don't understand."

"You" Bai Jue choked, a little angry.

"But you continue to follow him and report as soon as you have any information. I want to make sure he is dead."

"You don't need to tell me to understand that he should have gone to find that Uchiha Sasuke. Only at this time, the first person he thinks of is Uchiha Sasuke."

This was Hei Zetsu's voice, which was deeper and more steady.

After saying that, his body disappeared into the ground and disappeared.

"Why don't you let me finish?" Bai Jue.

"Shut up" Black Zetsu.

Tiandao Payne sat on the throne, closed his eyes of reincarnation, and didn't know what he was thinking about.

He had important things to deal with and was waiting to greet someone.

Uchiha Itachi left the Akatsuki organization without alerting anyone, not even Mikigaki Kisame, and he left quietly.

He wanted to finish his work and take advantage of the remaining time.

He left quickly, suppressing the discomfort in his body. He was already on the verge of collapse and might die at any time.

The long-term illness and the use of the Mangekyō Sharingan have already left his body riddled with holes and his life force has been exhausted.

Suddenly, he stopped and looked at the big tree beside him. The void twisted and a figure appeared. Under the threaded mask, there was a scarlet three-magatama eye.

"I have something to discuss with you."

Uchiha Itachi spoke first.
