What is Chapter 375?
When things developed to this point, Chaolu vaguely realized that she should step aside and give the stage to them, but she did not move.
She looked at Sasuke, who hadn't responded to what he had just said, wondering if he had understood it or not.
Sasuke felt that she should understand. Although he couldn't read her expression or mood, he felt that she seemed to be thinking.
She looked at him like this, thinking about him, and just thinking about it made Sasuke feel a kind of anxiety and restlessness that was about to burst out.
But now was not the time to wait for her response, so Sasuke gently urged her to leave: "Asaro."
Asaka would never let her companions get involved in a dangerous battle alone, but since Sasuke said this was a battle between "me and me", she couldn't justifiably intervene.
Chaolu looked at the tyrant opposite, then looked at Sasuke in front of her, and said seriously: "If you die in front of me... I will never forgive you."
Sasuke was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, "Okay."
His smile was always rare, like a spring breeze blowing across the cold winter, instantly melting the ice and snow. But Chaolu thought about it and realized that after she met him, she had actually seen him smile a few times.
She glanced at the tyrant opposite her again and slowly backed away.
The battle begins.
The tyrant who possesses the tailed beast unscrupulously uses the Nine-Tails form with Susanoo as armor. Even though people know that he is "Uchiha Sasuke", it looks like Sasuke is fighting against another Sasuke and Naruto alone.
Chaolu kept a close eye on the changes on the battlefield, wanting to make sure that if Sasuke showed signs of weakness, she could protect him in time.
Is Sasuke okay...?
Can you win?
According to the strength on paper, Sasuke should not be as strong as the Tyrant. Asaka originally planned to fight the Tyrant together with Naruto, but now it becomes Sasuke fighting the Tyrant alone.
It seems to be very difficult to make things go according to plan.
The two had only started a few rounds when Naruto's chakra was rapidly approaching. He was obviously worried, so after placing the others in a safe place, he hurried back.
When he was about to rush into the battlefield, Chaolu stopped him.
Naruto was a little surprised: "Asaro?!"
Chaolu said helplessly: "Sasuke said... this is his fight."
Naruto's eyes subconsciously revealed worry, but he knew Sasuke. If Sasuke said so and he ignored it, it would be very disrespectful to Sasuke.
The blond boy stopped beside Chaolu and stood with her to closely monitor the situation on the battlefield: "...I understand."
How long did the battle last?
Perhaps it wasn't long, because the sky didn't seem to change much, but to Chaolu and Naruto standing there, it felt like a very long time had passed.
Several times Sasuke was at a disadvantage, and the two men subconsciously gasped and tried to rush over, but soon they would see Sasuke reappear, seemingly fine;
Sometimes the chakra vibrations of the two of them would create dust like a sandstorm, covering the sun, and even Chaolu could not see Naruto beside her with her naked eyes when she stood there;
Sometimes there were flashes of lightning and thunder, and the space between the sky and the earth was filled with the screaming of thousands of birds, which seemed to tear the air apart;
Sometimes powerful chakra overflows, so dense that it is almost hard to breathe...
Looking at the endless dazzling moves, even now with the power of the Otsutsuki, Chaolu admitted that Sasuke was difficult to deal with.
——That kind of indomitable spirit, coupled with battle-hardened fighting skills, is enough to control the situation.
Chaolu even felt that at the end of the battle, it was no longer about who was stronger, but about who had a stronger desire to survive.
Finally, the tyrant was shot down from the sky.
Sasuke fell down next, as if to pursue the victory, but the war did not break out again.
The sudden silence made Chaolu and Naruto hesitate for a moment - has the winner been decided?
Really?
Is the dust settled?
It doesn't feel real!
……
Sasuke looked at the tyrant lying on the ground and saw that he no longer had the will to fight, "You didn't try your best."
"That's enough." The tyrant stared at the sky, his gloomy expression that always showed deep hatred and deep hatred finally revealed a trace of relaxation and trance. "It's meaningless to continue fighting."
Sasuke asked calmly, "Is this enough?"
"...That's enough." The tyrant said softly, "I'm tired."
He avoided Sasuke's gaze and looked in the direction of Asaka and Naruto.
Because he can never accept seeing pity or regret in the eyes of others, even if that person is "himself", or especially himself, especially "another self".
The tyrant almost whispered, "They have been with you, waiting for you to return."
"Suigetsu, Jūgo, and Karin... aren't they waiting for you?"
"You know different."
He finally looked at Sasuke, and to his satisfaction, Sasuke's expression remained calm.
This is good.
He doesn't need others to feel sad for him, that makes him feel sick.
Just keep a blank expression.
but……
Deep down, he still felt a little empty.
"Why do you like that woman?"
"Morning dew?"
"Ah."
Sasuke didn't think about it for too long, because he knew that these were the last moments of the tyrant's life, and every minute and every second should not be wasted.
"Perhaps it's because only in her do I see the possibility of happiness."
"Does she like you?"
"……I have no idea."
"The way she looks at you is... different than the way Sakura used to look at me."
"Really? She probably doesn't like me."
"Why? Because you're not strong enough? Did you lose to Naruto, or you can't beat her either?"
“Not everything is about strength.”
The tyrant laughed.
It was a weak smile with some sarcasm, but because it was a smile, for a moment, his expression still vaguely showed the shadow of the handsome young man who was full of vigor and vitality back then.
"I never thought that one day, I would say that power is not everything... Haha."
Sasuke crouched beside him and held his cold hand.
The tyrant said coldly: "What are you doing?"
"In a way, we have the same blood... In this world, we are the closest people to each other." Sasuke said: "... If we are not the same person... then we can probably be considered brothers."
The tyrant was startled.
"My parents...my brother...I didn't give them a proper farewell. At least, I can give you a proper farewell."
"What is this..." The tyrant said, "If it were me... I would never say such a thing even if I die."
Sasuke lowered his eyes: "Because... I am surrounded by people who speak their mind. If some people don't speak, you will never understand."
"What does it matter if I don't understand?"
Sasuke shook his head.
The tyrant didn't understand this matter and wasn't interested in it, so he didn't ask any further questions.
After a while, he whispered again: "Do you know where people go after they die?"
"It is said that you will see your deceased relatives and friends coming to greet you."
The tyrant remained silent, thinking about something. Suddenly he said, "I don't want to go with them."
Sasuke looked up and saw that his eyes were wide open, but his pupils were dilated and out of focus.
……
"What that guy said was actually true..."
In the dark, mysterious space between matter and consciousness, between life and death, the tyrant looked at the figure not far away, but only a habitual sneer appeared on his face.
"Sasuke..."
Uchiha Mikoto and Uchiha Fugaku stood together, and there seemed to be tears of sadness in their eyes.
And beside them, was the most familiar figure - one he would never forget or mistake - Uchiha Itachi.
He looked at him tenderly: "Sasuke..."
"Sasuke!"
Then, it seemed like the only bright color in this black world——
The blond boy pretended to be cheerful, not wanting to make the situation seem too serious, and said, "You guy, you didn't last long at all!"
"Sasuke," Fugaku said with the attitude of the head of the family, "We are here to take you home."
The tyrant looked at them coldly.
"Home? You guys have been absent from my life for such a long time, stop pretending to be a great parent!"
The Uchiha were stunned.
Even in the world after death, he still stood stubbornly against them, refusing to reconcile, refusing to feel relieved, and refusing to let go.
"You all abandoned me, and now you're pretending to take me home?" The tyrant looked at his parents and said sternly, "Did you ever think of me when you were going to die? Before you died, you actually told Itachi that Sasuke was in your care. Are you kidding me? What could he do? When you died, take me with you!!"
He glared at Itachi fiercely again: "Why do you think you can do it!? You think that as long as I survive, nothing else matters?! They entrusted me to you, and you entrusted me to Konoha. What do you think of me? A burden? A trouble? An extra souvenir? Passed from hand to hand? You manipulated me like a puppet. My mood, my pain, my anger - have you ever responded even once!? You should have killed me first, and then fulfilled your noble ideals!"
Finally, he looked at Naruto fiercely: "Useless guy! You said you would definitely stop me, why did you die in the end!?"
Naruto shouted in grievance: "Because I still hope that you can live, Sasuke!!"
"Idiot! Idiot!! You are the last one holding us back!" The tyrant was furious. "Each of you only know how to arrange me according to your own ideas! You clearly said that if you can't stop me, you will die with me. Why didn't any of you do it?! Why did you suddenly change your mind and insist on letting me live? You didn't even ask me what I thought!!"
Naruto yelled angrily: "Stop making trouble here!!"
After venting, the tyrant seemed to calm down: "So, I won't go with you."
Naruto said anxiously: "Hey, where are you going?"
The tyrant turned around and looked behind him. In the black mist, Sasuke's figure gradually emerged.
The tyrant stared at him: "I hate them, you know that, right?"
Sasuke glanced between them and said nothing.
The tyrant held his wrist and refused to give in: "My chakra is given to you."
That was because he, as the ruler of this world, devoured the huge chakra of the nine tailed beasts.
"You said we were brothers..." He murmured in a low voice, "Until the end, you didn't abandon me."
He raised his face and looked at Sasuke seriously: "Although you said that strength is not important, this is all I can give you... You said you saw the possibility of happiness... When that time comes... Remember to tell me, what exactly is the so-called happiness?"
