"Father, did you just say that brother isn't dead?"
The six-pointed star fluttered in his eyes. Uchiha Sasuke looked at his father.
At the same time, countless questions flashed through his mind.
'If Uchiha Itachi isn't dead, why hasn't he appeared in the exam space twice in a row?'
'If he was alive, why couldn't the exam space find Itachi?'
'What the hell is going on here?'
Looking at Sasuke's expectant eyes, Uchiha Fugaku glanced at Mikoto and Izumi and saw that they both looked shocked. Uchiha Fugaku sighed.
Originally, he didn't want to say it.
He wanted Itachi to have a hero's death, just like the Fourth Hokage from Konoha.
What's more, Mikoto would give birth in a few months, and he didn't want Mikoto to experience a big emotional disturbance at this time.
But now that the word was out, Fugaku couldn't hide it.
"On the night of genocide, Itachi, who should have gone back to the future, died in his own Amaterasu, but the Itachi, who was the one who was supposed to exterminate the clan, didn't die."
"He just got blown away by a Shinra Tensei from a scroll."
"I once asked Orochimaru to summon Itachi with the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but it failed."
Uchiha Fugaku said, then he stopped talking and looked at the three people who were stunned at the moment.
Hearing Uchiha Fugaku's words, Mikoto and Izumi's eyes erupted with a burst of light.
They believed that Itachi wouldn't easily die! He must be alive somewhere!
At the same time, Uchiha Sasuke, who had been shocked and numb by the bombshell news coming one after another, kept repeating 'not dead' in his head.
'Not dead! Not dead! Not dead!'
Itachi! His brother was still alive!
Suddenly, Uchiha Sasuke's expression fiercely changed, as if remembering something, frantically rummaging through his own pockets.
The hectic movements seemed to tear up all the pockets on his clothes.
Soon, under the puzzled eyes of Fugaku, Uchiha Sasuke took out a blue card.
Crack!
Without thinking, Uchiha Sasuke directly crushed it.
At the moment when the card crumpled, a translucent blue light curtain appeared in front of the four.
This scene caused the other three to freeze, followed by instant joy!
'Reward from the exam space!'
They knew what Sasuke was going to do!
Sure enough, as if to verify their idea, after the blue screen appeared, the mechanical and ethereal voice rang in the ears of the four.
[Uchiha Sasuke, you have used the Problem Resolution Card, you have three chances to ask a question.]
'Three chances?'
'That's enough!'
Uchiha Sasuke stared at the screen and couldn't wait to ask, "I want to ask, is Uchiha Itachi still alive?"
[Yes.]
The one-word answer directly shocked the four Uchihas!
'Alive! Itachi is still alive! He is still alive! He's really alive!!!'
Happy!
Joy!!
Heartfelt joy instantly enveloped the four.
This was a confirmation from the exam space, and they immensely believed it!
"Sasuke, Sasuke, ask where your brother is!"
Uchiha Mikoto's eyes were indisputably streaming with tears of joy at the moment!
She gripped Fugaku's arm tightly with both hands, and her ten fingertips were already white from squeezing too hard.
The same was true of the nearby Uchiha Izumi, holding her hands tightly together and looking at Uchiha Sasuke with expectant eyes.
At the moment, they didn't look like they were powerful shinobi at all.
One was a mother looking forward to her son's return and a little woman looking forward to her boyfriend's return!
Beside the two, Uchiha Fugaku's gaze was also intensely fluctuating. At this moment, even his Eternal Mangekyō was revealing the fluctuations in his emotions.
"Great exam space; I want to ask, where is Uchiha Itachi now?"
[Beyond the shinobi world, a forbidden place.]
As the voice sounded, this time, on the blue screen, images began to appear.
"Video?"
The four people looked at the screen in confusion. They didn't expect that there would be video analysis.
First of all, what caught the eyes of the four people was a blue water planet, beside which there was a small planet covered in potholes floating quietly.
"This is the shinobi world."
Uchiha Fugaku slightly frowned and explained it to everyone.
He didn't understand what this video from the exam space meant.
Before Uchiha Fugaku could react, the picture suddenly pulled out in a certain direction, and the planet representing the shinobi world instantly disappeared from the picture.
Under the gaze of the four, the video moved quite fast. It was unknown for how far and how much distance had been crossed.
Until a group of behemoths appeared on the screen, the speed of the video decreased.
" That... that's...!!!"
The moment he saw the huge creatures, Uchiha Fugaku felt like he fell straight into an ice cave, and unspeakable fear directly engulfed him!
All the hair on his body stood on end, and his scalp felt numb.
He didn't expect to see these things again!
"Father, do you know what they are?"
Hearing Fugaku's startled cry, Sasuke was stunned.
He didn't understand. This image was clearly countless distances away from the shinobi world; how did his father know these creatures?
What surprised Sasuke, even more was that his father didn't seem to hear his cry.
At the moment, his eyes were staring at the video, at those fish-like creatures.
The video drew closer, and in the blink of an eye, those huge fish-like creatures appeared in the middle of the screen.
It was only at this moment that Sasuke realized the magnitude of these monsters.
Their bodies were boundless. Even with the screen from the exam space, they could only see a corner of it, not the entirety.
But in the starry sky, the size of the star and the moon beside them weren't even as big as the scales on their bodies!
'This...'
'This...'
Sasuke looked at the dense scales on these monsters in horror, and his whole body was frozen in place.
'How could there be such a terrible monster?'
'What the hell is this?'
The picture continued to draw closer as if facing the monster—the screen passed by those beasts, which allowed the four people to see their scales directly.
Suddenly, the four swallowed at the same time.
On those scales, each of them had a bizarre pattern, as if a silent and powerful evil spirit was sealed in it.
It was as if each scale had a soul trapped in them!
The four looked at the screen in disbelief, and then a huge pair of eyes appeared on the screen.
"No, no, no, no! This is impossible!"
At first sight of those eyes alone, Uchiha Sasuke collapsed.
He looked at the pupils with horror. 'Those were densely packed bodies!'
One by one, they are stuck on the pupil of the monster, as if they were paying for their sins.
One by one, their eyes were opened as if they couldn't die.
On their faces, horrified expressions were solidified, as if in life, they saw something unimaginably horrifying.
"Six Paths?"
"These people, are they all Six Path ranked? All dead?"
They looked at the Rinnegan in those people's eyes and the white robes they were wearing.
At this moment, the eyes of the four people were full of disbelief.
'How is this possible?'
'How can there be so many people at the Sage of Six Paths' level?'
'Besides, they are all dead!!!'
When four people were about to feel numb, the screen approached a monster with a height of about 10,000 meters.
Although it was 10,000 meters tall, it belonged to the weakest batch among all the monster groups.
Its body, among the group of monsters, didn't even look like it was their cub.
Seeing the pupil in the giant beast's eyes, the four instantly fell into silence!
They looked at the scene in the picture in disbelief, already in despair.
In the middle of the picture, the pupil of this giant beast had a figure set right in the middle of it.
His eyes were wide open, and the Mangekyō pattern was slowly turning in his eyes.
"Itachi!"
"Oniisan!!"
Seeing the figure, Mikoto and Sasuke suddenly cried out. They never thought that Itachi would be there!
For the moment, Fugaku, still not completely alleviated from shock, heard the two shout, subconsciously looked, and was once again surprised.
This wasn't the first time he had seen this kind of beast. Last time, he also saw this terrible monster in Uzumaki Nagato's future.
Originally, he thought that it was just an interpretation of Uzumaki Nagato's future, which had changed with the changes in the shinobi world.
But he never thought that he would see them again!
Moreover, his son Itachi, like those Six Paths people, was caught by it!
"Damn it!"
Watching Itachi's pupil power being slowly withdrawn, the veins on Uchiha Fugaku's face popped up.
He didn't understand how Itachi could be there. They were so far away from the shinobi world.
Even if he was hit by Shinra Tensei, even if he flew out of the shinobi world, it was impossible for him to fly so far away!
'Wait!'
Uchiha Fugaku suddenly narrowed his eyes.
He looked at Uchiha Itachi's waist in horror, where a red string was tied...
'String?'
Fugaku's eyes quickly followed the string, only to find that the other end of the string was tied to a red fishing rod.
And the fishing rod was being held by a pale-white arm.
Not only an arm but half a shoulder.
Below it, there was a single chipped right leg. Next to the right leg, a red-fish basket.
