Aoi was startled, then his expression froze as he looked at Sarutobi in a daze and muttered, "How is this possible? How can Itachi's big brother do that? He was so kind." He started scratching his head, confused, looking at Sarutobi, then glanced at the Yamanaka ninja beside him.
Yamanaka Ninja nodded solemnly in return. Aoi then became extremely depressed, looking at Sarutobi. "It seems I can't eat lunch prepared by my sister Izumi anymore."
Sarutobi, Yamanaka, and the Anbu Ninja were shocked. Looking at his depressed expression, 'Lunch???,' Their mouths twitched, and visible veins protruded out on their foreheads.
Sarutobi sucked the smoke pipe deeply, then puffed the dense smoke. disappointment flashing through his pupil, 'It seems not only this child is physically ill, there is a defect in his brain also. Well, we should leave him alone; this child has no future.'
"Thank God Sasuke survived; I can take him to play around." Aoi then muttered,
Everyone's muscles twitched again hearing his comment; they controlled the urge to beat someone.
Sarutobi couldn't take it anymore, waved his hand, and said, "Yamanaka Shin, take him away and leave him near his residence."
"Yes, Hokage Sama." Yamanaka Shin hurriedly nodded, picked Aoi up in his arm like a briefcase, and walked outside the building.
"See you later, legendary Hokage Sama." Aoi's voice sounded before leaving the hall. Sarutobi sighed evicted the anbu embarrassingly, and turned his head, looking outside through the window.
Aoi was soon dropped inside his residence and walked inside his courtyard, looking at the fish in the pond. He appeared beside them and sat down, looking at them, his mouth curled.
'After meeting Sasuke, then I will leave the village and roam freely in the outside world,' Aoi thought to himself,
His vision blurred a little more. 'It seems my resurrection talent isn't repairing my Mangekyō vision; definitely it will be repaired once they lose the light completely. They will be upgraded to the eternal mangekyō, I think.' Aoi thoughtfully grabbed few fishes in order to eat them,
…
Next day,
A ninja appeared and informed him. Sasuke Uchiha has woken up, and Hokage wants him to visit the hospital.
Aoi then appeared in the hospital, looking at Sasuke lying on the bed in a daze with a dark vibe flickering around his body.
"Sasuke, how are you feeling?" Aoi asked, walked inside,
Sasuke was startled, turned, and glanced at him. Then hatred and tears flowed out of his eyes, and he spoke resentfully, "Aoi, you also survived; I heard all of our Uchiha clan was massacred by him. My parents and everyone else were killed by him."
"I also knew about it yesterday. I didn't expect your big brother to do such a horrible thing. If I were in my house, I would also have been dead by now." Aoi then spoke, sighed in relief,
Sasuke then shouted, "He is not my brother; he killed my father and mother. I will definitely kill him and avenge my parents."
Aoi was startled and fell silent, hearing his loud shout. Looking at him, 'I have to act with him; an old pervert guy is peeking at our conversation right now.'
"I hope you recover quickly, and I also know the pain of losing loved ones." Aoi then spoke calmly, fell silent, and didn't say anything anymore.
Sasuke's expression froze, then he turned around his back in Aoi's direction, covering himself in a blanket. "Leave me alone; I don't want to talk to anyone."
Aoi glanced at him, hesitatingly wanting to say something, then turned around and left the room with a depressed expression.
Sarutobi is sitting inside the Hokage office, looking at the Sasuke and Aoi interaction. Through the crystal ball in front of him,
'An avenger, it seems everything happened according to your plan, Itachi.' Sarutobi thought to himself and puffed the smoke.

Meanwhile, After leaving the hospital, Aoi started walking through the whole Konoha street's
Looking at Naruto and others who walked by him, going toward the hospital,
Aoi then turned his head away and walked toward his house, but he didn't know the Ninetails inside the Naruto body shivered, and all his hair stood up, raised his fox head, and opened it's huge vertical eyes. "This sensation, is it those two guys?" He muttered in amazement,
Naruto halted, sensing something, turned, and glanced at the back of Aoi. Looking at the Uchiha symbol on his clothes, he was surprised. Others were also startled by him.
"Are there other survivers beside Sasuke, didn't they say only Sasuke survived." Sakura muttered thoughtfully,
"He lookslike a lonely person." Naruto muttered looking at Aoi back.
"Let's go Naruto." Sakura called and then took away dazed Naruto along with them.
Aoi then walked near the village entrance, looking at people moving inside and outside through the entrance.
He bumped into a ninja, then apologized. The ninja didn't care; he just walked outside the village while Aoi returned to his home.
Inside his house, he left a wooden clone and wore a simple village dress.
Flying Thunder!!!
then signed and instantly appeared beside the ninja he just bumped into, he was leaving the village for traveling purposes.
Aoi stroked his neck and let him fall unconscious. Looking at the pathway leading through the forest all the way to the valley at the end, he moved forward while looking for a tree that was burly enough to have a trunk. Finally, he found a target, looking at a wide tree in which he could easily stay.
He patted it and then hollowed it out using wood limit. He also left a kunai with a flying thunder mark inside.
"Well, this will be my first transition point for now. After leading outside the village, it's time to visit the outside world. My wooden clone inside the house is enough to hide my identity for a while." Aoi muttered thoughtfully.
Aoi then moved toward the valley of the end, after transforming his appearance to that of a normal boy in village clothes.
