Chapter 119 Naruto: How could this be? It can't be real!
The pain was terrifying; his eyeballs twitched constantly, as if he were about to open them at any moment. However, the presence of a large dose of anesthetic and sedative prevented Naruto from waking up. Not far away, on an experimental table, Uchiha Sasuke was struggling and cursing.
Several ninjas stood beside Sasuke, holding chakra scalpels, and cut open Sasuke's body. While he was still conscious, amidst Sasuke's frantic cursing and lamentations, they inscribed sealing jutsu runes into his body.
"Bear with it, Sasuke, for the sake of the village!"
"We'll be able to inscribe these incantations for you very soon. Don't worry, it won't fail!"
"Our technology is not yet mature. The surgery can only be performed while you are conscious. This is all for your safety. If we don't conduct this experiment, you will die before you see Uchiha Tsuki!"
These words, which sounded like words of comfort but were actually incredibly cold and showed no regard for Sasuke as a human being, came from the mouths of these ninjas.
"You beasts! Brother Uchiha Yue should have killed you all!!!"
Uchiha Sasuke cried out in despair and struggled, but to no avail. He couldn't even awaken his Sharingan because they had removed his eyes beforehand to prevent him from awakening the Hidden Flower Sharingan.
Sasuke is now just a useless blind man.
Besides Sasuke, the laboratory also contained a large number of experimental subjects. These subjects were wild people that Konoha ninjas had found in the wild. All sorts of inhumane experiments were performed on these wild people from the Land of Fire. They were even more miserable than Uchiha Sasuke. At least Sasuke is still alive now.
And what about these wild people from the Land of Fire?
During the research, no one cared about their lives or deaths.
God knows how many lives they sacrificed to develop a special barrier that could be used on living people. Moreover, the surgery could only be performed while the patient was conscious, which meant that they had to personally experience the pain of being disemboweled, having their hearts touched, and feeling the blade sliding between flesh and internal organs.
"What's going on—Sasuke, is this all fake—is it a dream? I must be dreaming, right?"
At this moment, in the laboratory, a phantom stared blankly at this scene, his face full of disbelief. He did not trust everything he saw and heard. If this was the so-called reality of the village, and the so-called Will of Fire, then what did everything he trusted mean?
Naruto knelt on the ground, covered his eyes, and his body trembled.
His intuition told him it was true, but he couldn't believe it. Had Granny Tsunade lied to him?
He didn't have low blood sugar at all; he was captured and used for experiments. Yes, although his diet wasn't very healthy, he was still full, so how could he have low blood sugar?
"However, Naruto seems to have a pretty good relationship with that damned Uchiha Sasuke. What if he asks where Sasuke went? What if they start fighting?"
"Besides, there needs to be an explanation for being in a coma for so many days!"
"That's simple, just say you don't know. After all, Uchiha Sasuke already had a reason to flee the village!"
"As for the reason, just make one up. I think this kid is quite simple-minded and easy to understand!"
"Haha, so that's how it is—so that's how it is."
"Sasuke never left the village. He's dead. He died at your hands, Lady Tsunade, Lady Jiraiya."
"Haha, the Will of Fire, so this is what they call the Will of Fire? So this is what they mean by 'Will of Fire'—they'll sacrifice everything for a greater reward. And what about comrades? Hahaha—"
"So, all my trust in you, my trust in the village, my trust in the Will of Fire—in your eyes, it was foolishness!"
Naruto covered his head, squatted on the ground, and looked confused and helpless, as if his beliefs had collapsed.
"No, no, this isn't real, this isn't real, it's a dream, it's a dream! Sasuke just disappeared, it's just a nightmare I had because of low blood sugar and my random thoughts! Wake up! Wake up!"
The next moment, Naruto shook his head violently, as if everything in front of him was a dream, as if everything was a nightmare, and as long as he woke up, it would all be over.
"Kid! This isn't a dream!"
Just then, everything in front of him seemed to blur, and a huge prison appeared in front of Naruto, with a terrifying giant beast lying silently inside, coldly watching Naruto.
"Who are you?"
Naruto looked up and stared blankly at the giant beast.
"Hehe, don't you understand yet? I am the power within you. The chakra they extract is drawn from me." The Nine-Tails looked at Naruto, leaned closer, and spoke in a deep voice.
"No—. This can't be, it must be a dream. When did you come into my body? How come I don't know about it? I must be dreaming. Impossible! The village can't be like this! Will of Fire. Will of Fire Naruto took a step back, clenched his fists, and shook his head repeatedly, denying everything in front of him."
"Hahaha!!!"
"Hahahaha!!!"
Seeing Naruto like this, Kurama laughed wildly, as if mocking Naruto's naivety.
"What are you laughing at?!"
Naruto gritted his teeth, staring intently at Kurama as if he had been provoked.
"Hahaha, brat, now that you've seen the truth, are you still deceiving yourself? Are you still unwilling to face the darkness of Konoha?"
"This isn't a dream, this is reality. Everything you just saw was real. This is Konoha! The beautiful village you imagined never existed! Now, tell me, having witnessed the darkness of Konoha, how long are you going to keep lying to yourself?!"
"Sasuke didn't leave the village, he died! He was pushed into the fire by those guys who kept talking about the Will of Fire and their comrades!!! He's dead! Hahaha!!! This is what you call Konoha! This is what you call ninjas!!!"
"Look, look—hahaha!!!"
The Nine-Tails laughed maniacally, and the scene of Sasuke's suffering appeared before Naruto's eyes once again. In addition to Sasuke, there was also the horrific scene in the laboratory.
"No--.-"
Naruto shook his head as he watched this scene, then plopped down on his stomach with a look of utter despair on his face. So this was the Will of Fire!
"Little devil—"
