Chapter 14: The Night of Genocide
Later, Shimura Danzo, who left the Hokage's office, found Uchiha Itachi.
Danzo said calmly: "The Third Hokage said it nicely. He wants to solve the Uchiha problem peacefully, but the key is that there is no way to solve it peacefully now, and he will still choose Konoha at the last moment."
"I hope you will make a choice, whether to side with Uchiha and participate in the coup and destroy your family together, or to side with us, keep your brother before the rebellion and then help us kill all the Uchiha people."
Danzo was an explicit threat. He was afraid that Itachi would show mercy because he was a member of his clan, so he threatened him with Sasuke, whom Itachi valued most.
Itachi did not answer directly, but said:
"The Uchiha clan is too arrogant and overestimates their capabilities. They will only destroy Konoha's hard-won peace!"
The implication is that the Uchiha clan 'overestimates their own capabilities', and for the sake of peace in Konoha, he will not show mercy.
Danzo nodded, very satisfied with Itachi's answer:
"But don't worry, your brother is very talented. I will protect and train him so that he can become a unique ninja!"
With no worries anymore, Itachi no longer hesitated. He knelt down on one knee and said with great emotion:
"Thank you, Danzo-sama!"
"Yes." Danzo continued: "Then from tonight on, only our top management in Konoha will know about your affairs!"
"But after this incident, you will become an S-class rebellious ninja who destroyed the clan. You will no longer have a foothold in Konoha, and you will be endlessly hunted by Konoha!"
Itachi nodded heavily, and the expression on his face gradually became firm:
"I have had this realization a long time ago!"
"Okay." Danzo helped Itachi up, "But Konoha will not make a substantial threat to you. After becoming an S-class rebel ninja, you can collect more information that is detrimental to Konoha as a traitor. information, and then bring the information back to the village.”
"In exchange, we will keep Zuosuke a secret and focus on training him. Okay, do what you should do."
"yes!"
Itachi agreed solemnly, and his figure disappeared in an instant.
With the departure of Uchiha Itachi, the third generation came to Danzo's side,
"This is good. In this way, Konoha has avoided civil war, and the peace of the village has finally been maintained. But it is still a pity. Until now, I have not found other suitable ways to solve the problem peacefully."
Then Sandai Dandan turned around and said to the darkness behind him:
"But since that's the case, let's get ready!"
"yes!"
In the darkness, dozens of black shadows suddenly appeared!
After they bowed to the third generation in unison, they quickly rushed towards the direction of the Uchiha clan.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the bright moon in the sky and slowly blew out a smoke ring.
"Danzo, you should also prepare."
"Yeah." Danzo nodded and left the place.
Tonight's genocide operation will be carried out by Konoha's top brass sending their men to cooperate with Itachi.
Of course, it is mainly the roots led by Danzo that do these things.
After all, as a Hokage bathed in the sun, Sarutobi Hiruzen does not need to come forward in person. Danzo will do many dark things for him.
Of course, in order to prevent accidents, he sent out a team of his most trusted ANBU.
Stay next to the Uchiha clan and help him monitor the progress of the genocide. If any fish escape the net, kill them one by one.
Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Hiruzen Sarutobi blew out a smoke ring again and sighed:
"For the sake of the peace of the village, these are unavoidable. But what a pity. The family that has been around for countless years since the Warring States Period is still the hero of the founding of Konoha..."
"After tonight it's just history."
After Uchiha Itachi left, he did not immediately implement the genocide plan, but came to a corner of Konoha.
In this corner, a man wearing a wooden mask was already waiting.
The masked man asked: "Have you made your decision now?"
"Well." Itachi said solemnly to the masked man in front of him, "In order to protect the peace of Konoha, I want to kill all the Uchiha clan tonight, so I need your help!"
"I know." Under the mask, Uchiha Obito couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly and chuckled.
There was a hint of ridicule in the laughter, but also a hint of excitement.
After laughing, Obito said calmly:
"Of course you want my help, but remember the conditions I said before. After this matter is over, you must join my organization and follow my arrangements!"
"I agree to this condition." Itachi answered directly without hesitation.
"That's good." Obito nodded noncommittally, "Go ahead, I will assist you when you deal with the Uchiha. If there is a strong person hiding, I will take action to deal with it."
"As for those ordinary tribesmen, I think you should have no problem."
""
The two briefly discussed it, and Itachi turned around and walked towards the Uchiha clan, while Obito also activated his divine power and left.
Uchiha Itachi stepped into the Uchiha clan and stood in front of the Konoha security force.
Looking at the slightly dilapidated building in front of him, Itachi couldn't help but think of his origin.
The Konoha Police Department is a Konoha police force established by the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama. In order to prevent the next Uchiha Madara from appearing, Senju Tobirama decided to integrate and guide the power of Uchiha.
He built the police department and the prison together, and staffed them with members of the Uchiha clan, so that the Uchiha clan could contribute to the village and be responsible for maintaining law and order in the village.
Because of its special nature, one-third of the clan members gather here, and it has half of the power of the clan.
It can be said that the Konoha Police Force is very strong and is more than enough to maintain Konoha's public security.
However, under the exclusion of Konoha's high-level officials, the presence of the Konoha Guard Force has become weaker and weaker in recent years, and many important tasks have been taken over by the Anbu.
In addition to the daily maintenance of Konoha's public security, only some insignificant or less important tasks will be assigned to the Konoha Police Force.
The current captain of the police force is Uchiha Fugaku, and the deputy captain is Uchiha Baifeng.
Fugaku is very familiar to him, so let's not talk about it for now, and the relevant information about Baifeng directly appeared in Uchiha Itachi's mind.
Three magatama, elite jonin, strong physical skills, and as famous as Uchiha Shisui in the three wars, with quasi-shadow strength.
Since the Konoha Ninja School, he has been training every day. He is a famous self-disciplined maniac in Uchiha. He is not very concerned about the Uchiha coup and belongs to the neutral faction.
In the past two years, he has developed Lightning Release, which, combined with his own ninjutsu, may have improved his strength and reached the level of ordinary Kage.
Such strength is very good for others, but Itachi doesn't care.
Because he didn't open the Mangekyō, no matter how strong he is, it's just so-so.
Itachi, who has opened the Mangekyō, knows the horror of the Mangekyō. Compared with the ordinary three magatama, it is simply a world of difference.
Powerful ability, plus the bug-level Susa Noh.
It's no longer something that ordinary ninjas can touch.
Besides, with the help of the masked man with unfathomable strength, it's not that difficult to deal with the Konoha Police Department.
But I heard that his Lightning Release is very strong, so you still have to be careful.
After solving the Konoha Police Department, other clansmen lived in the Uchiha clan land, which made it easier to kill.
Looking at this slightly dilapidated building, Uchiha Itachi's eyes gradually became cold.
"For Zuosuke, for the peace of Konoha, forgive me!"
