Kapitel 78: Chapter 78: Tobi Blocks the Way

A blood-red moon hung high in the sky, casting an eerie and almost seductive glow over the night.

As darkness fell, an enormous barrier unknowingly enveloped the entire Uchiha clan's district.

This barrier had no offensive or defensive capabilities, making it difficult to detect.

Its purpose was simple: to isolate the Uchiha district, ensuring that whatever happened within would have no impact on the rest of Konoha.

In other words, it had excellent soundproofing—no matter how chaotic things got here, the rest of Konoha wouldn't feel a thing.

Under the cover of night, Uchiha Itachi walked steadily toward the clan district, his face devoid of any expression, his entire being exuding a cold, chilling aura.

As a member of the Uchiha clan and the son of the clan leader, Uchiha Itachi bore an immense burden in making the decision to raise his sword against his own kin for the sake of Konoha's peace. It was a decision that had caused him indescribable anguish.

However, for the sake of peace, Uchiha Itachi did not regret his choice.

He had made an agreement with the Third Hokage regarding the Night of the Massacre: Sasuke would be the sole survivor of the Uchiha tragedy.

This was a promise the Third Hokage had personally made to him.

But Uchiha Itachi had another thought in mind—Uchiha Akira.

As the greatest genius in the history of the Uchiha clan, and having been entrusted with dual responsibilities by Shisui, Uchiha Itachi also wished to let him live.

He wanted to see what heights Akira could reach in the future.

However, Itachi knew that while the Third Hokage would agree to let Sasuke live, he would never agree to let Akira survive.

Therefore, finding a way to secretly save Akira was an incredibly difficult task.

"Hey, Itachi, you're back!"

A fellow Uchiha clansman, noticing Itachi's return, greeted him with a smile.

Itachi did not respond to the friendly greeting.

"???"

The clansman, noticing Itachi's cold demeanor, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Itachi was usually quite amiable within the clan. He would normally respond to greetings like this, so why was there no reply today?

At that moment, a cold flash of steel sliced through the night.

The Uchiha clansman's eyes widened in disbelief as he slowly collapsed.

Uchiha Itachi's three-tomoe Sharingan glowed in the night, and a splash of blood stained his face.

The crimson blood, combined with the scarlet Sharingan and illuminated by the blood-red moon, made him appear like a demonic entity.

After striking, Uchiha Itachi wasted no time and used the Body Flicker Technique, entering full slaughter mode.

"Clan Leader!"

In Uchiha Fugaku's house, a loud shout rang out.

Several elite Uchiha members barged in without waiting for Fugaku's response. "Itachi... Itachi has begun massacring the clan! No one can stop him!"

Yes, the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan had initially filled the Uchiha clan with pride.

But when that power turned against them, it only inspired fear.

"So, it's happening after all? Just as Akira predicted..." Uchiha Fugaku's face showed a sorrowful expression as he heard the news.

Although Uchiha Akira had warned him and Fugaku had made preparations, deep down, he had hoped this moment would never come. He had hoped Akira's prediction was wrong.

But as the clan leader, Fugaku knew now wasn't the time for despair.

He quickly steeled himself and prepared to confront the situation.

The power of the Mangekyō Sharingan could only be countered by another Mangekyō.

Because Uchiha Fugaku had prepared for this, Itachi's plan to quietly eliminate the guards one by one had failed.

At this moment, five or six elite Uchiha members with three-tomoe Sharingan were surrounding Uchiha Itachi.

But despite being outnumbered, Itachi seemed to have the upper hand.

In battle experience, timing, mastery of genjutsu, ninjutsu, and hand seals—Itachi had no weaknesses.

Even without activating his Mangekyō, he was overwhelming the elite Uchiha with just his three-tomoe Sharingan.

As more and more clansmen gathered, Uchiha Itachi sighed inwardly. The tomoe in his eyes spun, merging into the form of a triangular pinwheel—the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Be careful, it's the Mangekyō!" the elite Uchiha members shouted in alarm as they noticed the change in Itachi's eyes.

But at that moment, Uchiha Fugaku, along with other elite members of the clan, arrived to confront Itachi.

Seeing the clan leader arrive, the surrounding Uchiha members breathed a sigh of relief.

The power of the Mangekyō could only be countered by another Mangekyō!

Thank goodness Fugaku wasn't on the same side as Itachi.

As the surrounding clansmen retreated, Uchiha Itachi paused his assault and turned to face his father.

"Itachi, don't you owe me an explanation?" Fugaku asked, though the truth was already clear before him. He still found it hard to accept.

"The Uchiha are planning a coup, which will lead to the destruction of Konoha. For the peace of the village, and even the peace of the entire ninja world, I have no choice but to do this," Itachi declared, making his stance clear.

Yes, the Uchiha had set their minds on a coup, and when that happened, the people of Konoha would suffer the horrors of civil war.

Konoha's vulnerability would inevitably attract attacks from other ninja villages, leading to another great ninja war.

For the sake of peace, Itachi believed he was doing the right thing.

Hearing that Itachi was willing to sacrifice his own clan for the sake of so-called peace, the surrounding Uchiha members erupted in anger, cursing him.

But Uchiha Fugaku did not join in the condemnation.

Although their beliefs differed—Fugaku fought for his clan, while Itachi fought for the village and the peace of the ninja world—Fugaku still felt a sense of pride in his son's noble ideals.

In essence, Itachi was choosing to sacrifice a few to save many.

But because Fugaku was among those being sacrificed, he had no choice but to oppose him.

Otherwise, from an outsider's perspective, Fugaku might have even helped Itachi.

As the saying goes, "Those who do not share the same path cannot work together."

There was no point in talking any further. Uchiha Fugaku raised his hand, ready to fight.

Uchiha Itachi, too, took a deep breath and raised his bloodstained sword, launching the first attack.

In an instant, the two top-tier Uchiha warriors clashed.

Their battle was so fast and intense that even the elite Uchiha members found it difficult to intervene...

Meanwhile, Uchiha Akira was no longer sitting in his wheelchair. He stood on a rooftop, watching Fugaku and Itachi's fight from a distance.

After observing for a moment, Akira shook his head silently.

Indeed, the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan was immense.

Despite simulating life for so long and experiencing centuries' worth of life, Akira had yet to awaken the Mangekyō himself.

If it weren't for the Eight Gates, he'd likely be helpless against the Mangekyō.

However, now wasn't the time to watch this father-son battle. Akira had his own mission to carry out.

After taking a quick glance at the fight, Akira turned and prepared to leave the Uchiha district.

Tonight's plan had already been discussed with Fugaku: the Uchiha members would delay the enemies as much as possible, allowing Akira to carry out the decapitation strategy.

After all, it wasn't just Uchiha Itachi who would be responsible for the clan's destruction.

Konoha's Anbu, and even members of Root, would likely be involved, though they had yet to make their move.

However, just as Akira turned to leave, he suddenly noticed a figure blocking his path.

Under the moonlight, the figure was cloaked, with a large hood covering his head, making it difficult to see his face.

Of course, even without the hood, his face would have been obscured.

The figure wore a wooden mask with a spiral pattern, orange-red in color.

"This...?" Seeing the figure blocking his way, Uchiha Akira's heart sank.

Judging by the mask, Akira immediately recognized who it was.

Uchiha Obito!

In Akira's mind, Obito was the greatest genius in Uchiha history.

Why? Because he awakened the Mangekyō directly from the two-tomoe state!

In all of Uchiha history, who else could boast such a feat?

In terms of talent, not even Uchiha Madara, Shisui, Itachi, or Sasuke could compare!

In the original Naruto series, many tragedies were deeply moving, but none more so than Obito's love for Rin Nohara.

Of course, as a spectator, Akira was also moved by Obito's story.

But now, they stood on opposing sides.

Kapitel 79: Chapter 79: Kicking Open the Hokage's Door

"Who are you?" Uchiha Akira asked as he looked at the figure before him.

Even though he already knew Tobi's true identity, Uchiha Akira pretended not to know.

The current confrontation was only due to the Uchiha Massacre Night. Once this was over, they would each return to their own business, and there wouldn't be much contact for a long time.

But if he showed that he had already figured out Tobi's identity, Tobi would inevitably focus more attention on him.

Since he didn't yet have the power to crush Tobi, why not save himself some trouble?

The Eight Gates technique was strong, no doubt, but it was a trump card for critical moments, not something to be used as a regular power.

Even if he could successfully exploit the loophole, the excruciating pain that came with opening the Seventh Gate—the feeling of his flesh tearing apart—was enough to make him shudder.

The pain from opening the Eighth Gate would surely be even more terrifying.

"Me? I'm Uchiha Madara," Tobi said, slowly pulling down the hood of his cloak. Behind the mask, his right eye revealed a Sharingan with three tomoe.

He deliberately lowered his voice as he spoke to Uchiha Akira.

"Star-Lord, is that you?" Uchiha Akira suddenly blurted out.

He recalled how, in a past life, in a certain movie, Star-Lord, normally a goofy character, had imitated Thor's deep voice when they first met.

This moment was eerily similar to that scene.

Come to think of it, Uchiha Tobi also had a somewhat goofy personality.

But here he was, intentionally lowering his voice, pretending to be Uchiha Madara!

"???"

Luckily for Tobi, his face was hidden behind the mask, so his expression couldn't be seen.

At this moment, the expression behind the mask was probably one of utter confusion.

He had just declared himself as Uchiha Madara! Akira should have either been shocked, skeptical, or, at the very least, sarcastic.

But instead, he suddenly mentioned Star-Lord—what kind of nonsense was that?

Who was Star-Lord? Had he mistaken him for someone else?

"My bad, just mixed things up!" Uchiha Akira waved his hand dismissively as Tobi remained silent, seemingly thrown off by the remark.

"Is this guy a clown or something?" Tobi thought to himself, internally sighing after this brief exchange.

"This evening, no one within the Uchiha district will be allowed to leave!" Tobi declared in a low, menacing voice, ignoring whether or not Akira was just a fool.

"Oh? And what if I say I'm determined to leave?" Uchiha Akira responded with a calm challenge.

"You can try," Tobi said confidently, his posture unyielding.

"Try, then," Akira replied with a grin.

Forming hand seals, he created a dozen shadow clones.

The clones scattered in different directions, moving away from the Uchiha district.

Tobi's Kamui technique was indeed formidable, blending the intangible and tangible, making it hard to counter.

But the Body Flicker Technique developed by Shisui had a similar effect, making it difficult to distinguish between real and illusionary clones.

Tobi was strong, but blocking Akira's path wouldn't be easy.

As Akira split into a dozen clones and dispersed, Tobi moved with incredible speed, attacking all the clones simultaneously.

His speed was undoubtedly that of a Kage-level ninja.

However, the insight of his three-tomoe Sharingan was sharp, and with each attack, Tobi's strikes simply passed through Akira's body.

The clones made no effort to defend or dodge, allowing his attacks to phase through them.

In just a few seconds, Tobi had struck all the clones.

Yet, Akira's true body had already switched positions twice, avoiding every strike.

In those few seconds of stalling, the clones had spread far and wide, quickly disappearing into the night.

"So this is the legendary Body Flicker Technique of Shisui? What an annoying ability…" Tobi muttered to himself as he watched Akira's distant figure.

He had always relied on his Kamui to easily evade attacks, shifting between tangible and intangible states at will. Apart from the Fourth Hokage, who had once given him trouble, this ability had always been a headache for his opponents.

But now, for the first time, he found himself up against a similar technique.

A dozen shadow clones, with bodies that also seemed to shift between tangible and intangible—he had just experienced his own ability used against him.

"The hunter has become the hunted," Tobi thought with a wry smile, shaking his head.

He decided to let it go. His focus was on the Uchiha clan as a whole.

Though Akira had managed to escape, it wasn't a critical loss in the grand scheme of things.

Once the Uchiha clan was wiped out tonight, he could deal with Akira later.

Shifting his attention back to the Uchiha district, Tobi dismissed Akira's escape as a minor setback, not worth his concern.

"Shisui-sensei's technique really lives up to its reputation. The more focused the fight, the better it performs," Uchiha Akira mused, feeling a surge of gratitude toward his teacher's skill.

Using the Body Flicker Technique alone, without resorting to the Eight Gates, he had managed to slip past Tobi's guard, leaving him with a sense of accomplishment.

The ability to switch between real and illusionary clones, confusing even Tobi, must have been particularly frustrating for him.

"It's no wonder the Murong clan from Heavenly Dragon is so famous for their 'using your own methods against you' technique. It's hard to deal with your own signature move used against you," Akira thought.

There was a certain satisfaction in using Tobi's own tactics against him.

Shaking off these thoughts, Uchiha Akira refocused on his mission.

The Uchiha Massacre had already begun. Fugaku, the clan leader, and the others were buying him time by holding off their enemies. He couldn't afford to be distracted.

His primary objective now was the decapitation strategy: eliminating the Third Hokage.

Konoha's leadership had become thoroughly corrupt, and it was time for Akira to take matters into his own hands, to purge the rot from within.

If not for Konoha's deep roots, the village would have already crumbled under the current leadership's mismanagement.

With Tobi unable to stop him, Akira had little difficulty leaving the Uchiha district.

Once free, Akira moved like a ghost, swiftly making his way toward the Third Hokage's residence.

However, as he was speeding through the village using the Body Flicker Technique, he suddenly paused.

Passing by the Ninja Academy, he noticed that students were still sparring on the training grounds.

What's going on? On a normal day, the Academy would have ended classes long ago.

Why were they still here so late?

Thinking back, Akira remembered that in the original story, Sasuke had also returned home late from the Academy, only to encounter Itachi standing atop a power pole.

"So they deliberately kept the Academy students late to prevent Sasuke from witnessing the massacre firsthand?" Akira mused.

He glanced at the Academy, where Sasuke was sparring with his classmates, though he seemed somewhat distracted.

It looked like even Sasuke's instincts were picking up on the strange atmosphere.

For Akira, this was just a brief moment of reflection as he passed by the Academy.

Without further delay, he resumed his journey, heading straight for the Sarutobi clan's territory.

Crossing Konoha's bustling streets, Akira soon arrived at the Sarutobi clan's grounds.

As the Third Hokage and leader of the Sarutobi clan, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally lived within the clan's compound.

"Who's there!?" Two voices called out as Akira approached.

Two Sarutobi clan Jonin appeared, blocking his path.

Without a word, Akira sent two shadow clones to engage them.

The Jonin quickly drew their swords in response.

But as their blades slashed toward Akira, they passed right through the clones.

"What? Are these just basic clones?" The two Jonin were puzzled.

Using such a basic ninjutsu as clones against Jonin-level opponents?

However, the clones that had been phased through counterattacked immediately.

With solid, tangible hits, Akira's clones sent the two Jonin flying with a cry of pain.

Though only seven years old, Akira's chakra reserves were at the peak Jonin level, nearly touching the threshold of Kage level. Naturally, two ordinary Jonin were no match for him.

After swiftly dispatching the Jonin, Akira made his way to the Third Hokage's residence.

Instead of sneaking in, he kicked the front door with all his might, sending it flying.

Then, step by step, Uchiha Akira walked into the Third Hokage's home.

His eyes shone crimson, and the three tomoe of his Sharingan spun menacingly…
