"However, these Uchiha didn't know that the so-called number one expert of the Uchiha, on whom they relied, was a complete traitor."

"Itachi completely forgot the kindness of the clan that raised and nurtured him, his heart only belonged to Sarutobi Hiruzen and other higher-ups, not to the village that belonged to everyone, and he unhesitatingly betrayed their plans for a coup to the higher-ups."

"Furthermore, Itachi planned to use his Kotoamatsukami eye technique to modify the will of Fugaku, the pigeon faction leader of the Uchiha clan, who didn't have much say in the clan and was completely controlled by the clansmen, in order to quell this conflict."

"The final result, of course, was that this Uchiha genius, who clearly made a living by killing people, didn't read much, but frantically wanted to pursue peace, failed. He didn't understand the principle that peace can only be achieved through struggle."

"He never expected that he was not trusted by the higher-ups at all. They were very wary of Itachi's eyes, which could silently modify people's wills, and in the end, Danzo snatched away that Mangekyo Sharingan, which was only used to activate the Kotoamatsukami eye technique to prevent the coup from happening."

"And even at this time, he still didn't realize that the fault in the conflict wasn't just with his clan, but also with the step-by-step pressure from these higher-ups he trusted."

"And, using the power of Kotoamatsukami in the remaining eye, whether it was friendship or something else, he passed on the will to protect Konoha to his best friend, who was also Sasuke's brother, Itachi."

"The young Itachi witnessed the death of his brother-like friend Shisui, and awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan at the age of less than eleven, and then began his path of pursuing peace."

"Although he was good at thinking, he still didn't realize the essence of the problem. What caused all of this was precisely the aggressive higher-ups, who stubbornly believed that the Uchiha were entirely at fault. This was a degenerate and corrupt clan, and he was a double agent who vaguely pursued the peace in his heart."

"But the still young Itachi made the same mistake as Shisui. He didn't read enough and didn't have enough experience, so he couldn't understand the essence of achieving peace through struggle, nor could he understand how to alleviate the conflict between the clan and the village."

"Shisui's death temporarily dispelled the Uchiha's idea of a coup, but the appearance of Itachi's new Mangekyo Sharingan reignited their ambition."

"The conflict between the Uchiha and the village's higher-ups also intensified once again, and had developed to the point of being on the verge of breaking out."

"In Itachi's view, if the village and the Uchiha went to war, regardless of the success or failure of either side, it would weaken the strength of Hidden Leaf Village, which would then lead to other ninja villages attacking, ultimately leading to a Ninja World war."

"However, Itachi didn't know that the village's strength and foundation far exceeded his imagination. Every Ninja World war was one against many, and even if other ninja villages came to attack, there would be no chance to take advantage of it."

"And the Uchiha's coup was almost impossible to succeed. Even if they killed the higher-ups led by the Third Hokage with a decapitation tactic, they would not be recognized by the rest of the village because they had no connections."

"At this time, the village's higher-ups took advantage of Itachi's youth and ignorance. In order to reduce their own losses, they gave Itachi an ultimatum on the condition of ensuring the survival of Itachi's younger brother Sasuke, demanding that he destroy the Uchiha clan and maintain the peace of the village."

"The masked man who called himself Madara was also becoming more and more active, and there were faint signs that he would attack the village."

"Itachi, who understood Madara's strength and reputation, was concerned about the future of the village and also concerned about Sasuke's safety. In the end, after much deliberation, he reluctantly demanded that Madara not attack the village, and also demanded that the village's higher-ups protect Sasuke."

"Then, for the sake of the narrow peace in his heart, he wielded the butcher knife against his clan, against his parents who gave birth to him and raised him."

"He bore the crime of exterminating the clan, went to the Akatsuki as a Rogue Ninja to monitor the masked man who called himself Madara, endured mental and physical torment, and waited for Sasuke to have enough strength to come before him."

"Then, he died at Sasuke's hands, awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan for Sasuke, and used his own Mangekyo Sharingan to awaken the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan for his younger brother Sasuke."

"And his death, in addition to that, could also make Sasuke a great hero who killed an S-rank Rogue Ninja."

"In his remaining life, as his age and experience increased, Itachi gradually understood that at that time, he actually had better ways to deal with the conflict between the clan and the village, and he could have trusted the power of others."

"Unfortunately, it was already too late to go back."

"After being reincarnated by Impure World Reincarnation, his original intention to protect Konoha remained unchanged, but he also chose to tell Sasuke everything, trusting his growth and letting him choose his own future."

Without rushing to recall the rest of the memories in his mind, Naruto's eyes were a little complicated at this time.

This conclusion proved that Kurama's Evil Intent Sensing that night was not wrong. That man really had no malice towards him and Sasuke. He bore all of this alone for the peace in his heart.

For the Uchiha clan, he was an out-and-out traitor. For most people in the village, he was an unsung hero. From the perspective of Sasuke's brother, he was worthy of being called a good brother.

However, no matter how many reasons there were, Itachi's actions were wrong in Naruto's eyes.

Killing parents and relatives is not something a human being should do.

Respecting teachers and valuing the Way, being filial to parents, these are Naruto's fundamental values.

Cultivating oneself, managing the family, governing the state, and pacifying the world—these are the teachings of the sages for Naruto.

It means that one must first improve personal cultivation, learn more knowledge to increase wisdom, in order to manage the family in an orderly manner, and then be able to complete the great ambition of governing the country and pacifying the world.

The experiences of Itachi and Shisui, and the distorted values formed by the collision with their desire for peace, once again warned Naruto.

Ignorance makes people narrow-minded!

One must read more books, so that one can clearly distinguish what one is doing!

So that one won't have good intentions, but ultimately do unforgivable evil deeds.

And because of this, Naruto is even more disgusted with those Konoha higher-ups who keep talking about the Will of Fire.

They keep saying they want to protect Konoha, they keep saying they want to protect the villagers, that the people in the village are all one family, constantly promoting the Will of Fire, but they can't treat everyone equally at all.

On the contrary, they are very good at excluding dissidents.

The Senju and Uchiha clans, who created the village, disappeared one after another during Sarutobi Hiruzen's reign, and his Sarutobi clan continued to grow stronger.

Konoha White Fang Sakumo Hatake, who was powerful and qualified to inherit the Hokage position, was forced to commit suicide.

He, the Hero's Son, had a childhood he couldn't bear to look back on.

Even, Sarutobi Hiruzen began to pave the way for his son Asuma to become Hokage.

In order to win the support of the other clans in the village, he arranged for his son Asuma to lead the heirs of the Ino-Shika-Cho three clans, while his daughter-in-law Kurenai Yuhi led the heirs of the Hyuga, Inuzuka, and Aburame clans.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect that he would suddenly pass away, nor did he expect that his son would also die at the hands of the Akatsuki.

What these higher-ups are protecting is never everyone's Konoha, but their own Konoha.

And with this, they still expect others to have the so-called Will of Fire?
