Within a thirty-meter radius of Jiryoku, the air crackled with an intense gravitational force, causing the ninjas from Root to instantly feel the weight of six times the normal gravity. Sensing their impending doom, they braced themselves as Jiryoku unleashed his technique, the Storm Slash. Despite their valiant efforts to defend themselves, the Root members found themselves powerless against Jarou's onslaught.
The devastating power of the Storm Slash cut through their defences, claiming the lives of several Root members in a single stroke. Jiryoku, displaying his mastery over gravity, strategically left the remaining Root members trapped within the merciless Gravity Field, ensuring their escape was impossible. He swiftly turned his attention to the Root members on the periphery, knowing they were their only chance for escape.
Empowered by the Storm Chakra mode, Jiryoku became an unstoppable force, cutting through the Root members as effortlessly as slicing through vegetables. Each swing of his blade spelled death for the Root ninjas, leaving no member capable of withstanding more than two slashes. The battleground resounded with the clash of steel and cries of pain.
Having killed every last Root member, Jiryoku stood in the aftermath of his triumph, his presence exuding both power and tranquillity. The black circles on his hands, a testament to the first stage of EAM (Enhanced Active Mode), dissipated into nothingness. Feeling weakness overtaking his body, he decided to leave immediately.
He approached the box full of Sharingan and, with his Command System tool, removed all the 3-Tomoe Sharingan and the remaining 2-Tomoe Sharingan that he didn't need. However, he refused to let Danzo get his hands on them, so he destroyed them using Thunder Chakra. With his task completed, Jiryoku vanished from the place.
As Jiryoku disappeared into the night, the Gravity Field he had created slowly dissipated, returning the environment to its normal state. An eerie silence spread throughout Uchiha Clan compound, a testament to the events that had unfolded.
...
Finally, after 30 minutes, Hiruzen and Danzo arrived with members of the Anbu. When they saw the corpses of Uchiha clan members throughout the Uchiha clan compound, both felt a sense of satisfaction deep within their hearts. For Danzo, an evil family had been removed from Konoha, and he could now harness their power to unify the world. As for Hiruzen Sarutobi, a potential rebellion had been eliminated from the village.
Hiruzen looked somber and turned towards the Anbu members, saying, "It seems Itachi has strayed from the path of the Will of Fire. Go and see if there are any survivors in the family," he said knowingly, aware that Itachi's brother, Sasuke, should still be alive.
Upon hearing the Hokage's words, the Anbu members nodded in acknowledgement. While they remembered Itachi as a fellow member of the Anbu, they didn't have time to dwell on the past. They went to carry out the orders of the Hokage.
After searching for 10 minutes, two Anbu ninjas came forward and respectfully knelt in front of Hiruzen. The one with white hair spoke, "There is one survivor in the Uchiha clan. His name is Uchiha Sasuke."
Hiruzen nodded, as he had anticipated this outcome. It was part of the deal with Itachi.
Hiruzen then addressed Kakashi, "Kakashi, take Uchiha Sasuke to the hospital. He must be traumatized after this incident."
Kakashi nodded in response and left to fulfill his duty.
After Kakashi departed, another Anbu member spoke, "We found the bodies of 30 Root ninja members."
Upon hearing this, Danzo's face changed, and he shouted at the Anbu member, "Why didn't you speak up sooner? Take me there!" However, the Anbu member remained in place, unfazed by Danzo's outburst. Recognizing Danzo's status as second only to the Hokage, Hiruzen calmly intervened, saying, "Go and lead us to the location."
The Anbu ninja complied and guided them to the site. As they surveyed the deceased Root members, the Hiruzen commented, "It seems the attacker possessed a unique chakra nature combination of wind and thunder. If I'm not mistaken, it resembles the Storm Chakra nature transformation mastered by the Third Raikage's disciple. Their movements also appear to have been restricted by some means. Additionally, it seems that some of the eyes here are destroyed, likely Sharingan collected by the Root ninjas."
Hiruzen, renowned as the Professor of Ninjutsu, wasted no time in analyzing every detail of the battle. As he explained, Danzo's gaze fell upon the eyes, and he felt a profound loss. While he didn't hold much regard for his subordinates, viewing them merely as tools, the Sharingan held a significance he couldn't dismiss.
With a glimmer of hope, Danzo turned to the Anbu ninja and asked, "There must be intact Sharingan in most of the Uchiha clan members, correct?"
The Anbu ninja replied, "No, I checked all the bodies, and no Sharingan was found."
Danzo was filled with despair. Not only had he failed to obtain any Sharingan, but he had also lost elite members of his Root organization. Now, there were only about 20 surviving Root members under his command.
