The Uchiha clan's territory was surrounded by pitch darkness, like a silent sheet.
"Ugh..."
"Where am I? Was I on a mission to chase down a target?"
"Ahh..."
Sasuke felt his head splitting open, memories flooding in like a tide.
Uchiha Sasuke? Konoha? Did I cross over to the world of Naruto? This feels like a fairy tale. I actually became Sasuke, and a young Sasuke at that.
"Unlucky, this is really bad luck!"
"Well, since I'm here, I might as well settle in."
After a moment of reflection, Sasuke regained his calm. He had always enjoyed reading manga and novels. Apart from carrying out missions, he had no other attachments, so there wasn't much to worry about in this new world.
He looked up at the corpses in front of him, recognizing Sasuke's parents. He didn't fully understand the current situation, but Sasuke endured the pain and stood up, step by step, walking towards Fugaku and his wife.
Tap tap tap~
Tears kept falling, filling Sasuke's heart with unspeakable sorrow. He wiped his tears and said firmly, "I will definitely seek justice."
"Stupid brother, I will correct your mistakes sooner or later with my own fists."
From now on, I am Uchiha Sasuke, and Sasuke is me.
"Ding! Detecting the host's identity, initiating the exchange system..."
"Do you accept?"
With a small movement of his finger, Sasuke murmured, "I accept."
"System binding complete, new user gift package awarded!"
"Hashirama's cells (basic), three-tomoe Sharingan, Eight Gates training method, Yin-Yang Harmony Technique, Explosive Tags *100, Kunai *100."
Hashirama's cells gradually integrated into Sasuke's body without any discomfort, and the Eight Gates training method appeared in his mind.
The Explosive Tags and Kunai were stored in the system space, which had unlimited capacity, alleviating any worries about item storage.
The system also featured a lottery wheel, exchange mall, and task list. It seemed possible to obtain resources through exchanges, or by purchasing items from the mall or participating in the lottery.
Exploring the system, Sasuke tentatively asked in his mind, "System, since you're an exchange system, can I trade items?"
"No problem!"
The cold mechanical voice confirmed Sasuke's guess.
Supporting his father's corpse, Sasuke gritted his teeth, saying, "I want to sell my father's Sharingan." Instantly, Fugaku's eyes turned hollow, the eyeballs disappearing without a trace.
"Transaction complete, exchange points obtained..."
The feedback from the system made Sasuke think. The Mangekyo Sharingan in the mall required a large number of points, and his father's eyes only covered part of it, with some deducted as a fee by the system.
Sasuke didn't mind these details, as he believed he could temporarily exchange for nutrients to preserve the eyes for future transactions.
Securing the Sharingan, Sasuke remained vigilant, pretending to be unconscious on the ground.
His father's blood was still warm. Itachi had left not long ago, and both Obito and Danzo would come to check. They wouldn't suspect a thing.
Sasuke lay silently, feigning unconsciousness, until midnight when a loud bang echoed as the Hokage's ANBU quickly arrived at the Uchiha territory.
"Check the area thoroughly, make sure nothing is missed," Hiruzen Sarutobi ordered, entering the room where Sasuke was.
After being silent for a long time, looking at Sasuke who was distracted, thinking that he could not accept the reality of genocide, the Third Hokage sighed and took the lead to break the deadlock.
"Sasuke, my condolences. Your parents in heaven don't want you to sink like this. The key to reorganizing the Uchiha clan falls on you."
"Thank you, Sandaime-sama, I'm fine." Sasuke came back to his senses. He was just pretending just now in order not to arouse Sandaime's suspicion. After all, a child who didn't feel anything at all after experiencing such a big change would be the strangest.
Thinking of this, Sasuke's eyes became more and more gloomy and his tone was cold: "I will not let that man go, I will make him pay with blood!"
The Third Hokage nodded silently in his heart. It seemed that the seeds of hatred had been planted in Sasuke's heart. He was young and ignorant, and he had a blood feud. Such a child was most likely to accept the baptism of the Will of Fire.
After caring about Sasuke for several days, the Third Hokage left the ward. Sasuke touched his back in the distance with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
Crocodile tears? Although the Uchiha clan's prestige in the village was declining day by day, it was not easily shaken. He would never believe it if the Third Hokage wasn't adding fuel to the fire.
Right now, I still need to keep a low profile, but there are many people peeking at me secretly, such as the wretched old Danzo.
After staying in the ward for two days, Sasuke returned to the Uchiha compound and began his new life, with boring training and practicing ninjutsu day after day. With the body of a sage, he was getting stronger visibly day by day.
