--------------------------------------------------------------

Sasuke struggled only slightly, fearing he might hurt this uncle of his who wasn't even a ninja.

In the end, he could only bury his face in the man's chest, muttering a muffled protest, "Let me go."

However, the man did not release him. Instead, Sasuke felt a warm, large hand gently touch the top of his head.

Soft words from Uchiha Kaito followed, "I'm sorry, little Sasuke. I came back late. It must have been tough, but you won't be alone anymore. I will take care of you."

Hearing this, Sasuke felt a heaviness in his chest, and tears involuntarily started to flow.

Not alone anymore.

I still have a relative!

No! That's not right!

Uncle is just an ordinary person; he shouldn't get involved in my affairs.

It's better not to entangle him with my life. Let him live well as an ordinary person.

I'm sorry, mom, I can't take care of him for you.

Because I have important things to do!

If I'm still alive after my revenge, then I will protect him.

Uchiha Kaito didn't know what Sasuke was thinking at that moment. Seeing Sasuke start to struggle again, he let go.

Sasuke stepped back, turned his head away, and fiercely wiped his tears, saying coldly, "I don't need your care! Go back to Konoha. I'm leaving."

Uchiha Kaito observed Sasuke thoughtfully and casually asked, "Where will you go?"

Sasuke felt obliged to answer this suddenly appeared uncle because he thought that his uncle, who lacked power, couldn't stop any of his decisions.

"I'm going to find Orochimaru. Staying in the village is meaningless. To kill Uchiha Itachi, I must have power."

"Orochimaru? Indeed, he is a powerful ninja. But I don't think he will kindly teach you."

"It doesn't matter! As long as I can kill that man, I don't care about the cost! Don't interfere! You can't do anything without power!"

So just go back and live your life quietly in Konoha.

If I manage to get my revenge, I will surely take care of you.

After all, you are mom's brother, and she missed you a lot.

Watching Sasuke's obstinate demeanor, Uchiha Kaito sighed softly, "How foolish, Sasuke. Itachi, your sister, and your brother-in-law too."

Sasuke immediately became furious upon hearing this, glaring at Uchiha Kaito and shouting, "What do you know! Don't you dare insult my father and mother!"

Uchiha Kaito wasn't intimidated by Sasuke's fury. He just calmly looked at Sasuke's angry face and continued, "It's because I know too much... Hm?"

Seemingly sensing something, he paused.

"Somebody is coming. It looks like we need to leave here, Sasuke."

Before Sasuke could react, he formed a hand seal Sasuke had never seen before.

At the same time, Sasuke felt the air around him suddenly become heavy and then materialize, completely immobilizing him.

What's happening? I can't move at all!

Sasuke was shocked as he looked at Uchiha Kaito.

"Let's find another place to talk slowly. I can't just hand you over to Orochimaru."

While saying this, Uchiha Kaito grabbed Sasuke by the collar, hoisted him onto his back, and then, with light steps, disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The forest quieted down once more.

Suddenly, a figure all in white emerged halfway out of a distant tree and then silently merged back into the trunk and disappeared.

After a while, light footsteps were heard, and a white-haired man wearing round glasses appeared at the spot where the two had been talking.

"How strange, where did Sasuke-kun go? Could there be others targeting him too?"

Kabuto Yakushi carefully examined the surroundings but found the clues abruptly ending.

"Could they have gone through the air? Or used a space-time ninjutsu? This won't be easy to explain to Lord Orochimaru."

Night fell.

Uchiha Kaito had brought Sasuke to an unknown mountain range, now standing on a cliff several hundred meters high.

Looking down at the scene below the cliff, he then turned to look at Sasuke, whom he was carrying on his back.

Sasuke was still unable to move, only looking at him with uncertain eyes.

Sensing his suspicion, Uchiha Kaito didn't mind and simply smiled, saying, "There's an excellent spot hidden within this cliff. Let's go down. Don't be afraid, Sasuke."

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped down from the cliff, disregarding Sasuke's horrified expression.

Sasuke listened to the whistling wind by his ear, his heart pounding violently.

Then, to his surprise, they didn't fall straight down.

At this moment, he was lying on Uchiha Kaito's back, like a speck of dust riding on a feather, drifting gently with the wind and slowly descending.

What was this? Was it the use of Wind Release ninjutsu?

While descending, Uchiha Kaito observed the surroundings. When they neared a protruding large tree on the cliff wall, he kicked the wall, and they instantly shifted a distance, entering the dense canopy.

Without the large tree's branches and leaves for cover, an opening about the height of a person appeared in front of them on the cliff wall.

Uchiha Kaito, without hesitation, carried Sasuke on his back and bent down to enter the cave.

The entrance to this cave was small and concealed, but the inside was surprisingly spacious. Being on a cliff, there was no groundwater, making the interior very dry.

Indeed, it was an excellent place to settle.

Uchiha Kaito formed a hand seal with one hand, and a breeze blew through the entire cave, then swept the dust out of the entrance.

He looked satisfied at the clean floor, put Sasuke down, and then formed another seal to release the binds on him.

Sasuke felt suddenly lighter and immediately began to move.

He quickly drew a kunai, taking advantage of the cave's entrance for tactical positioning, activated his three-tomoe Sharingan, and kept a tight watch on Uchiha Kaito.

Uchiha Kaito didn't mind the young boy's actions, just casually straightening his clothes and sitting down leisurely.

Then he smiled at Sasuke, who was ready to fight, and gestured for him to come over, "Don't be tense, Sasuke. Come sit, let's continue our conversation."

Sasuke looked at Uchiha Kaito's face, which resembled his mother Mikoto's by ninety percent, didn't attack, but also didn't relax.

With the tomoe in his eyes spinning rapidly, he coldly asked, "Who are you, really?"

"Your uncle, Uchiha Kaito," Uchiha Kaito replied amiably.

"Impossible!"

Sasuke firmly said, "Mom said that my uncle didn't have chakra and couldn't become a ninja! You're clearly very strong, don't fool me!"

"You're being narrow-minded, Sasuke."

Uchiha Kaito narrowed his eyes and then reopened them, revealing a scarlet color with the same three-tomoe Sharingan spinning rapidly.

"The world isn't just about ninjas having power."

Sasuke, shocked at the sight of Uchiha Kaito's Sharingan, also felt a strange energy emanating from the man's eyes.

Similar to the chakra fluctuations when he used his own Sharingan, yet it didn't have the same cold sensation.

Through the Sharingan, he realized that indeed it was a power that didn't belong to chakra.
