"No matter what you become in the future, I will always love you."
These were the last words Itachi said to Sasuke after defeating Kabuto Yakushi and releasing the Reincarnation of the Earth.
Itachi, who was about to return his soul to the pure land, looked at Sasuke with happiness in his eyes.
Sasgei, what a stupid Oudou.
In this case, Uchiha's future will be continued by you.
As his soul ascended to heaven, Itachi's consciousness became weaker and weaker, and he seemed to see the heaven above the clouds.
I have no more regrets.
Itachi smiled happily.
....
After an unknown amount of time, Itachi suddenly opened his eyes.
The first thing that catches the eye is a patch of hazy sunlight and many huge, intertwined tree roots.
In the scene in front of me, there are countless colors and all kinds of fish swimming freely.
Through the huge tree roots stretching upward and the wandering fish and weasels, one can realize that this place does not seem to be a pure land.
Looking at this scene, it seems like being at the bottom of the sea.
As early as the first battle against Sasuke, Itachi ran out of Chakra and died of illness. Itachi's soul had visited the Pure Land.
He remembered that the Pure Land world was not like the scene in front of him.
"Then where is this?" Itachi couldn't help but ask.
Itachi tried to sit up, and suddenly he felt his heart beating loudly.
Itachi clenched his fists and touched the tear trough on his cheek. He stood up in shock.
He is not a soul, nor is he reincarnated from the dirt, this is his body!
Itachi walked around and found that he seemed to be on a ship. He saw that the ship was wrapped in a bubble-like substance and was sinking into the deep sea.
Through the vague reflection reflected in the bubbles, Itachi was more sure that he was not in a soul state, but had his own real body!
This is how the same thing!
At this moment, Itachi suddenly heard sounds coming from the front of the cabin.
On the deck of the thousand Sunny, Sanji slowly opened his eyes after hearing what Franky and Zoro said.
"Benefactor?"
"Sanji, you're awake!" Chopper said excitedly.
"Come and eat a bento! A bento from Hinajima Island." Luffy smiled and stretched out his hand towards him.
"Girl Island..."
"Is that guy Xiong really the benefactor..."
"Do you know where I have been for the past two years?"
"What on earth did you practice in a heaven filled with women? Luffy."
Sanji couldn't help but roar as he recalled the horrific experience he had on the Transvestite Island in the two years since he was beaten away by a bear.
"Ah, okay, Sanji-san, I don't know how you suffered, but now let's enjoy our new journey."
Brook took out his guitar and tried to comfort Sanji.
"Let's sing a song together. Let's celebrate our reunion after two years of separation and start a new journey!"
"Stop encouraging me, it will only make me sadder!"
There was no color on Sanji's face.
Itachi frowned slightly as he listened to these people's voices.
It appears to be the crew of this ship.
He doesn't quite understand now. He obviously should return to the Pure Land as his soul, but why would he bring his body to a place like this?
Itachi immediately wanted to confirm whether his body had been subjected to a resurrection spell such as Samsara Again, and then to see if there was Kabuto Yakushi or someone with the Samsara Eye nearby.
"Or is it me who was resurrected by Sasuke?" The more Itachi thought about it, the less he understood.
At this moment, Usopp held the telescope and said worriedly as he walked: "Hey, hey, you actually still want to watch whales."
"Nami just said that there is a 70% chance that the boat going to Fish-Man Island will sink, 70%!
I can't take my time like this anymore. "
Usopp said as he was about to take out his telescope and look around. He walked up the stairs to the sub-mast of the thousand Sunny. Just when he opened the telescope, he suddenly saw a person standing on the deck!
"Wow!"
Seeing Usopp yelling, Itachi, who was still in a state of confusion, instantly became alert.
Usopp yelled and rolled down the stairs, Luffy, Zoro and others rushed over quickly.
"Usopp, what's going on!"
"The ship, there are enemies on the ship!!" Usopp stammered.
"The enemy! Where is it! Where is it?" Chopper shouted along with Usopp.
Zoro had already seen Itachi, and he immediately pushed the knife away from his waist. Itachi habitually wanted to touch the ninja tool on his waist, but he did not have a ninja tool bag on him.
Luffy looked at Itachi carefully, and saw that Itachi was wearing a grid-like chainmail upper body, black pants with knee pads on the lower body, and open-toe short boots on his feet. His deep eyes were paired with a scratched forehead protector. Her long hair is tied back.
Luffy jumped up excitedly.
"What this enemy wears is so cool!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Straw Hats looked at Luffy.
"Luffy, it's been two years and your focus is still so different."
"Yeah, we have to figure out where this person came from." Franky clenched his iron fist and looked at Itachi nervously.
From the time he arrived at the Sabaody Islands to the time he broke away from the Marine pursuit and dived into the deep sea, he had been staying with the thousand Sunny. He had also checked before setting off, and there was absolutely no enemy hidden on the ship.
Robin looked at Itachi cautiously and said, "Could it be a ruthless warrior sent by Marine to take our lives?"
"What you said is so scary, Robin!"
Chopper jumped up along with Luffy.
"Hey, man with the tear trough, where did you come from!" Sanji pointed at Itachi and asked.
"Tear troughs, speaking of which, do I have tear troughs? Oh, by the way, I am a skeleton, so I won't have tear troughs." Brook touched his empty eyes and sighed.
"Don't mess with Brook!" Nami punched him away.
Itachi looked up and down at the people in front of him, wondering how these people were hitting here and there with hammers and sticks.
They don't look like ninjas from any country, except for the green-haired man in the middle, who is dressed a bit like a samurai.
"Tell me quickly, tear trough man, how did you come to our ship, hee hee hee."
Luffy asked with a smile as he rested his head on his hands. He was not nervous at all.
Itachi then discovered that the language they spoke was the same as his own.
"If I say, I don't know why I'm here." Itachi said, his voice still as dull as before.
"Then cut off your hands and feet before asking any more questions!"
Zoro charged with his sword and was in front of Itachi in an instant.
"Hey Zoro! Don't be so impulsive!" Nami tried to dissuade him. Zoro's knife had fallen on Itachi.
I saw Zoro easily cut Itachi in half!
"Ah this!"
Everyone in the Straw Hats exclaimed.
But at this moment, the figure of Itachi, who was split in half, suddenly disappeared and turned into a ball of black crows.
The crows flew away in all directions, making strange calls in the deep sea.
"Devil fruit, what kind of ability is this?"
Zoro immediately wrapped his haki around the blade. When he was in Hawkeye's castle, Hawkeye taught him how to deal with Devil Fruit users. He could use his haki to attach weapons to attack to break his devil fruit abilities.
But just when Zoro was about to release his Haki power, he suddenly felt his eyes spinning. After his eyes settled for a moment, he was in a desolate world full of blood!
This is!?
I'm obviously not on the thousand Sunny, so why would I appear in a place like this?
Moreover, the body...cannot move.
"Hey Zoro, what's wrong with you!"
Luffy rushed forward quickly and found that Zoro was still swinging the sword, but his body could not move.
Moreover, I don't know where the tear trough man went.
At this moment, Itachi's figure was slowly formed by crows, and he stood on the auxiliary mast of the thousand Sunny.
"Look, the tear trough man is there!"
Usopp pointed out Itachi first.
Everyone immediately turned their attention to Itachi.
"Hey Tear Trough Man, what did you do to Zoro!" Luffy shouted.
"Don't worry, he's fine."
Itachi's eyes moved slightly, releasing the Genjutsu, and Zoro collapsed to the ground.
Chopper hurried forward to check on Zoro.
"First of all, I need to make it clear that I am not here to be your enemy."
Itachi looked at Luffy.
