A month later.

The weather is a bit colder than usual, and the time has changed from late autumn to winter.

Itachi hid himself in a big tree, chewing dry food in ecstasy.

He had just calculated that since becoming a rebel nin, he had fought three times with the pursuit force led by Uchiha Shisui.

"It should be almost done..."

Itachi sighed secretly in his heart.

Itachi felt very tired every time he had to act with his former ANBU friends and teammates...

Obviously he dreams of returning to his beloved village with his friends, but in the end he can only pretend to be hunted down and miserable.

"Don't directly agree to their solicitation, but also reveal that you have heard of the existence of the Akatsuki organization, otherwise it will definitely arouse suspicion from interested people!"

This was what Namikaze Minato once warned him.

However, after acting for so long, Itachi still felt exhausted.

Although he understood that Shisui and the others were pursuing him so "diligently" in order to make his rebellion against the village more realistic and difficult to doubt.

But Itachi just felt inexplicably irritable, and even wanted to return to the village where he was born and raised at all costs.

"Sasuke...how are you doing...?"

Thinking of the little boy who always liked to stick to him, Itachi's eyes were slightly moist and he was in a trance.

"After the New Year, you will be six years old. It's time to go to ninja school...it's so fast..."

Itachi's face showed a look of nostalgia that was inappropriate for his age, but his expression soon changed slightly. He turned to look behind the woods behind him. "It's only been less than half an hour! Is this guy Shisui crazy!?"

He hated it so much that he could only put the dry food in his arms.

Itachi had every reason to suspect that his friend was legitimately playing tricks on him in the name of chasing down the troops!

He gritted his teeth secretly. "Shisui, wait for me!"

Itachi quickly stood up and started heading towards the underground black market again.

No matter how reluctant he was in his heart, he could only cooperate with Shisui to play out the scene well, so he could only run to a crowded place and show his "unbearable pain of being hunted and tortured"...

Pass the past to "Akatsuki"...

"You...it's time to come!"

Itachi kept walking, his eyes looking extremely deep in the cold winter.

......

The country of Sichuan.

Underground black market.

The staff member grinned and accepted the stack of banknotes in his hand, nodded solemnly, and bowed respectfully to Itachi.

"Thank you for the reward, distinguished ninja. Is there anything you need?"

"I would like to purchase the latest information."

Itachi's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly.

"What type of information do you need?"

The staff always smiles and shows a respectful and serious attitude.

Although this is a lawless and disorderly place, there are two 'rules' that constrain their inner morality, namely strength and financial resources!

If neither of these are available, no one will be respected by the staff here, and the underground black market will not be able to become the gray industry chain that bounty hunters most yearn for.

Here, the rich man is the boss!

Those who are both rich and powerful are the big bosses in the underground black market!

It completely satisfies the ninjas' pursuit of status and power!

And Itachi, an S-class rebellious ninja with a reputation for being generous with his actions, in the underground black market of a small country like Kawanoguni, it is no exaggeration to say that he is a god-like existence!

But Itachi's mentality remained neither sad nor happy about this staff member's favor.

The superficial compliment couldn't even offset his one-in-a-million expectation to see his brother!

"It would be nice if I could see you one more time that night..."

Itachi's mood felt depressed for a moment.

But it quickly wrapped up.

This is the underground black market, a place where darkness and sin are concentrated. It is not a place for him to be sentimental.

"I need a piece of information... about the Konoha ANBU's pursuit force in Kawa no Kuni. I wonder if you can provide it to me?"

"Yes! Yes!"

A look of surprise flashed across the staff's face.

As for Itachi's situation, those of them who are well-informed have almost heard about it, but they just pay attention to the difference.

"It's just that what we can provide you with is just random information. After all, the other party is the most elite ANBU member in Konoha. Even if someone happens to see them, they don't dare to get too close to them..."

As he said this, the staff member showed some embarrassment on his face, but he did not hide the truth from Itachi.

"It doesn't matter, just sell me the information you know."

Itachi didn't show any surprise and threw the five million taels of cash directly on the table in front of the other party with his backhand.

He knew what this man said was true.

But no matter how detailed the information was, or even whether it was true or false, it was not his concern.

He just needs to buy the information.

"Okay, please wait..."

After a while, the staff reappeared from the tightly guarded information room and handed a small gray scroll into Itachi's hands.

Itachi nodded with satisfaction, grabbed the scroll and turned around, looking a little anxious.

Seeing him leave, the staff member who was respectful in front of Itachi immediately changed his face and spit on the ground. His eyes were sinister, and the deep jealousy in his tone could be heard even by several ninjas guarding the door of the intelligence room.

"You just have some strength and a little money, so why are you pretending!? He's just a rebellious ninja brat who is being hunted by the village! I think he will die at the hands of Konoha sooner or later!"

......

After leaving the gate of the underground black market, Itachi followed the path to the surface with alert eyes.

Being alone outside was something he was used to as a rebel ninja.

But Itachi never takes the necessary vigilance lightly.

Just as he walked slowly to the ground, his expression changed and he immediately drew his knife in a defensive posture.

In the trees not far away, Itachi once again saw a memorable pig bridle and yin and yang face!

Seeing this, Itachi straightened up and put down his vigilant posture slightly, but did not put down the ninja sword in his hand, but his tone sounded a little impatient.

"It's you, didn't I tell you? I have no interest in joining the organization or anything like that. Don't come to me again!"
