Chapter 3: We must force-feed the weasel until it's as soft as a cream puff.
Seven-year-old Itachi Uchiha can be described as cute, with a slightly childish face, but he has already graduated from the Ninja Academy and has witnessed the cruelty of war.
Moreover, after being trained by Shisui, the number one genius of the Uchiha clan, his strength far surpasses that of ordinary genin.
"Don't be shy, sit down."
Uchiha Kazuhiko put on his glasses, calmed his breathing, and began to talk.
He had been prepared for Itachi's arrival.
Although the other party is still a child, he is the culprit who will eventually wipe out the Uchiha clan. He is a brother-supporting demon who will sacrifice the entire clan at the slightest disagreement, so he must be treated with caution.
Although I thought Itachi was pretty cool while watching the anime, I was even a little moved at the end.
But if you look at Itachi from the perspective of the Uchiha clan, it's a different story.
That kind of person is insane!
Is it even human to exterminate an entire clan to save one's brother?
Or are you saying that the Uchiha who were killed weren't human?
Moreover, it's one thing to eliminate ninjas, but to commit genocide against ordinary Uchiha who haven't even awakened their Sharingan is pure animalistic behavior.
Therefore, Kazuhiko's attitude toward Itachi is very clear:
This kind of mental illness requires psychological treatment. It is necessary to exert a strong influence on its thinking, deeply reform it, brand it with the Uchiha mark, and mold it into a cream puff.
Of course, if you can't get it, you have to destroy it!
"Have some tea. You're the Uchiha Itachi who's known for having 'Hokage-like thinking,' right?"
Itachi accepted the teacup with both hands, remaining expressionless even after hearing Kazuhiko's praise. "You flatter me, Third Hokage. I still have a long way to go."
"Zhi Shui told me that you have something on your mind that you can't let go of? You can talk to me about it. He cares a lot about your affairs."
Uchiha Kazuhiko sat opposite Itachi, smiling as he looked at him.
Steam rose from the teacups on the table, slightly blurring the view between the two. Behind his black-rimmed glasses, Kazuhiko's eyes seemed to shimmer with chakra.
Sharingan Genjutsu: Hypnotic Illusion, activated!
Judging from Itachi's behavior, it's obviously impossible for a stranger to open up to him through conversation. After all, even his own parents couldn't know Itachi's true thoughts and died by his sword.
Therefore, the only way to reform Itachi's mindset is through genjutsu.
Itachi vaguely remembered talking to the doctor for a long time before ending the conversation and leaving the clan clinic.
Outside, Uchiha Shisui, whom Itachi regarded as his older brother, had been waiting for a long time. He smiled and carried Itachi into the familiar moonlit night.
Something seems off...
Although Itachi's senses were being misled by the genjutsu, his ninja instincts made him subconsciously aware of the abnormality.
"You're very unhappy about returning from this mission."
Before Itachi could think, he was drawn to Shisui's words. The familiar voice made Itachi feel inexplicably at ease, and he temporarily forgot his doubts, falling into the illusion woven by Kazuhiko.
Itachi himself was gently placed on a recliner and fell asleep peacefully.
Kazuhiko mimicked Shisui's tone and began to speak: "Tell me why you're unhappy. It'll make you feel much better if you can talk to someone."
"The ninjas of Kumogakure have no moral bottom line; they slaughter ordinary people and kill children... and we have to do the same thing. I don't understand why we're doing all this?"
"To find the answer to this question, you need to ask yourself: What is the essence of this matter? What is its fundamental purpose? And why are you doing the same thing?"
"Why do such a thing... Yeah, what is it all for...?"
Uchiha Kazuhiko stared at Itachi, whose eyes were darting rapidly beneath his eyelids, indicating that Itachi's emotions were fluctuating greatly and he might wake up at any moment.
He clasped his hands together and began to form hand seals to amplify the illusion.
"Wu, Mao, Yin, Wei, Si, Chen..."
The Sharingan's genjutsu, when used by the Uchiha, requires no hand seals, making it extremely difficult to defend against on the battlefield. If there is a level difference between the two sides, it can easily result in an instant kill.
However, within the Uchiha clan, there are naturally "exclusive genjutsu seals" that amplify the Sharingan's genjutsu, used to enhance the effects of genjutsu and defeat enemies of higher levels.
"Because of the mission! Because of the war!"
The weasel's eyes slowed their movement, and it muttered to itself:
"War robs people of their humanity, and the missions they had to complete turned ninjas into killing machines..."
"Wrong! It's greed, that's the essence of all evil."
Kazuhiko spoke with conviction, forcefully conveying the ideas he wanted to express.
"The massacre of the innocent was merely a side effect. Peeling back the fog of war, the Hidden Cloud Village coveted the rich lands of the Land of Fire, so they launched the war; the Hidden Leaf Village monopolized all the high-profit missions, which led other ninja villages to wage war; ...the villages dispatched ninjas on killing missions in order to completely crush the enemy and achieve victory."
"Greed is at play on all sides here; where there are people, there will be greed."
"Itachi, aren't your eyes also searching for what you're looking for?"
Itachi frowned slightly. "Greed... What do I want?"
What are my eyes searching for?
Suddenly, Itachi's chakra began to swirl chaotically. He jolted awake and sat up, his eyes wide open, staring blankly at Uchiha Kazuhiko, who was still in a hand seal posture.
After a moment of silence, Itachi suddenly realized something and said firmly:
"I want peace! Whether it's between nations, or between the Uchiha and Konoha! I want peace, I don't want any more innocent people to die before my eyes!"
It's a deal!
I hope you will always remember what you said today.
"To be able to break free from the amplified genjutsu, he truly deserves to be called a genius of the new generation of the Uchiha clan."
Kazuhiko wasn't embarrassed. He released the seal and casually served tea and water. "Very ambitious, but it won't be easy to accomplish what you're talking about."
"This doctor," Itachi stood up, met Uchiha Kazuhiko's gaze, and said seriously, "..."
"Thank you so much for helping me find the answer to my problem, but I really dislike your treatment methods!"
Itachi's face showed undisguised disgust. "If the psychotherapy you pioneered is just about using people's trusted people to fool them, then you don't deserve to call yourself a 'psychologist'."

Is it a weasel?
They turn on each other at the slightest disagreement.
All you did was conjure up Uchiha Shisui and have a chat with him, why make such a fuss?
No wonder you activated the Mangekyou Sharingan right after Shisui died. Just wait, I'll use genjutsu to make Danzo, the Third Hokage, Obito, the Sarutobi clan, and everyone who opposes the Uchiha clan slaughter Shisui, and give you a good jolt to activate the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Also, I wasn't originally a psychologist. I only became a psychologist in Naruto because you Uchiha lunatics forced me into this profession!
Ignoring Itachi's expression, Uchiha Kazuhiko walked back to his rocking chair, took out a form, and began recording Itachi's psychological diagnosis.
The causes of mental illness in the Uchiha clan are similar, so even though the conversation was brief, Kazuhiko was able to perfectly write Itachi's psychological diagnosis.
"It seems that the initial psychological counseling can only go this far. You can take a look at the psychological diagnosis results I gave you later, and we'll follow up with the diagnosis report later..."
Before Kazuhiko could finish speaking, Itachi got up and walked outside. "No need, we won't meet again."
