Uchiha Fugaku gave Uchiha Miyako a scroll containing the Hashirama Cell Transplantation Technique and tasked her with mastering it and passing it on within the clan. He then created four ordinary Spore Clones and prepared to begin drills for a plan to eliminate Uchiha Shisui.

• Uchiha Fugaku assured Uchiha Miyako that Number One Spore Clone's eye replacement had succeeded, then showed her the Hashirama Cell Transplantation Technique.

• Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyō Sharingan repelled Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami, and Shisui realized Fugaku had also awakened the Mangekyō.

After Kotoamatsukami and the True Illusion both failed, Uchiha Shisui tried to kill Uchiha Fugaku with the Body Flicker Technique. Uchiha Fugaku countered Shisui’s rapid attacks with Ice Release and trapped the area, including himself, in Frozen Prison.

• Uchiha Shisui realized that injuries and deaths inside Uchiha Fugaku’s True Illusion could affect reality, while Fugaku had suffered no real cost from opening the Eighth Gate within it.
• Uchiha Shisui used the Body Flicker Technique to attack Fugaku from multiple directions, wounding him despite Fugaku’s Mangekyō Sharingan.
• Uchiha Fugaku unleashed Ice Release: Ice Spikes and Ice Rain, forcing Shisui to evade and revealing that Fugaku possessed the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai.

• Uchiha Fugaku cast Ice Release: Frozen Prison across the surrounding area, trapping himself and several Shisui clones and preventing them from using the Body Flicker Technique.

Uchiha Fugaku trapped Uchiha Shisui inside a field of ice mirrors that let Fugaku move faster than Shisui’s Body Flicker Technique. Shisui failed to escape or melt the mirrors, while Fugaku continued to wound him.

• Uchiha Fugaku’s ice prison failed to hold Uchiha Shisui, so Fugaku formed a hemispherical field of ice mirrors and hid within them.
• Uchiha Shisui spotted Fugaku’s mirror and attacked, but Fugaku burst out with overwhelming speed and cut Shisui’s throat and chest.
• Uchiha Shisui realized the mirrors were boosting Fugaku’s movement and tried to flee through a gap, but Fugaku caught him and wounded him again.
• Uchiha Shisui used the Great Fire Dragon Technique to attack the mirrors, but they resisted the flames and began to recover.
• Uchiha Fugaku emerged from another mirror, wounded Uchiha Shisui once more, and retreated back into the ice mirrors.

Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Fugaku fought with their Susanoo, escalating to armored third forms that neither could pierce. Uchiha Fugaku withdrew and dispelled his Susanoo, preparing to rely on his stronger Shikotsumyaku instead.

• Uchiha Shisui shattered Uchiha Fugaku’s ice mirrors with his green Susanoo, forcing Fugaku to reveal himself and summon a black Susanoo.
• Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui traded spear and spiral-sword attacks, while their Susanoo shields reflected volleys of arrows and the battle devastated the surrounding area.

• Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui exchanged armored blows, but neither could break through the other’s defenses.
• Uchiha Fugaku withdrew and dispelled his Susanoo, deciding that his Super Kage-level Shikotsumyaku was stronger than his Mangekyō Sharingan.

• Uchiha Shisui drove his third-form Susanoo into the Uchiha Flame Formation, but the barrier held against his attacks.
• Uchiha Fugaku unleashed Shikotsumyaku: Bracken Dance, filling the enclosed area with bones and impaling Uchiha Shisui, who revived with Izanagi.

• A concealed White Zetsu clone observed the fight and was shocked that Uchiha Fugaku possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, Ice Release, and Shikotsumyaku.

Uchiha Shisui tried to stop Uchiha Fugaku, but after exhausting his Izanagi and losing both eyes, he was killed. He died regretting that he had failed to protect Konoha's peace.

• After erasing the battle traces, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Vivi, and Uchiha Hiroshi continued toward the Feudal Lord's Mansion while the elders led the others back to Konoha.

The Third Hokage grew worried when Uchiha Shisui's mission team failed to report and sent Anbu to search for them. Meanwhile, Uchiha Fugaku arrived at the Feudal Lord's Mansion with Uchiha Vivi and Uchiha Hiroshi, having used a visit to the Iwai Family as a pretext to draw out Shisui.

• The Third Hokage ordered Anbu to check whether the Uchiha Clan had sent elite ninja out, and learned that the clan was acting normally.
• The Third Hokage dispatched three Anbu squads to search the route to the Feudal Lord's Mansion for the Crow Squad.
• An Anbu squad found a vast, recently damaged clearing and suspected the Crow Squad had been wiped out, then sent the news back to Konoha.
• Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Vivi, and Uchiha Hiroshi arrived at the Feudal Lord's Mansion and visited Iwai Yoichi, whose family held influential government positions.

The Third Hokage and his advisors speculated that Crow Squad had been wiped out by either the mysterious Wood Style Kekkei Genkai Ninja or a secretly powerful Uchiha Fugaku. At the Iwai Family mansion, Fugaku began melting White Zetsu’s corpse and prepared to do the same with Uchiha Shisui’s corpse to test whether it could awaken his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

• An Anbu Ninja delivered a coded report saying a search team had found evidence that Crow Squad was likely destroyed in a large battle.
• The Third Hokage, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura considered whether Uchiha Fugaku or the Wood Style Kekkei Genkai Ninja had killed the squad.
• The Third Hokage suspected Fugaku had secretly awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan and might have been responsible for Danzo’s death and the destruction of Root.

• At the Iwai Family mansion, Uchiha Fugaku released White Zetsu’s and Uchiha Shisui’s corpses from a Sealing Scroll.
• Fugaku melted White Zetsu’s corpse, confirmed that his Wood Release had improved, and turned to Shisui’s corpse.

Uchiha Fugaku melted Uchiha Shisui’s corpse to strengthen his eyes and successfully evolved his Mangekyō Sharingan into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. After finding that Corpse Melting had only gained a larger storage space, he sensed that True Illusion had changed.

• Uchiha Fugaku decided to destroy Uchiha Shisui’s corpse completely so no one could use it for Impure World Reincarnation.

• Uchiha Fugaku confirmed that he had awakened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, whose pattern remained single rather than becoming a double pattern.
• Uchiha Fugaku found that his left-eye Dojutsu, Corpse Melting, could store more corpses, then sensed that his right-eye Dojutsu, True Illusion, had changed.

Uchiha Fugaku discovered that his True Illusion Dojutsu could now affect targets without eye contact, and he toured the Feudal Lord's Mansion with Iwai Yoichi. After deciding to retaliate against the Third Hokage by killing Sarutobi Asuma, Fugaku left a Spore Clone in his place and secretly headed for the Daimyo's residence.

• Uchiha Fugaku found that True Illusion's activation no longer required eye contact, a change he attributed to Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami.
• Uchiha Fugaku estimated that his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan's Dojutsu would exceed his former strength by more than six times once fully recovered.
• Uchiha Hiroshi and Uchiha Vivi invited Uchiha Fugaku to tour the Feudal Lord's Mansion, and Iwai Yoichi offered to guide them.
• Uchiha Fugaku and Iwai Yoichi spent the day strengthening ties between their clans, and Fugaku learned that they could leave after Iwai's son's coming-of-age ceremony.
• Uchiha Fugaku decided to kill Sarutobi Asuma in retaliation against the Third Hokage, left a Spore Clone to impersonate him, and used the Mayfly Technique to approach the Daimyo's residence.

• Uchiha Fugaku used the Mayfly Technique to slip past the mansion’s guards and sensed the Twelve Ninja Guardians’ residence.
