Where Are the Eyes? Mikoto Can Stay, Fugaku Is Nutrients, a Bountiful Harvest!

"Sorry... I'm sorry..."

Filial Son held his Ninja Sword, tears streaming uncontrollably down his face.

Naruto, who had sensed everything from the side, nearly burst out laughing.

"Could this be called crocodile tears?"

Inside the room, Filial Son pointed his Ninja Sword at his biological parents.

The two merely knelt there, not moving an inch.

Uchiha Fugaku knew that his eldest son had no freedom to choose.

In the end, he had chosen to draw a line and stand with Konoha.

What Fugaku had not expected was that his eldest son, the one who had always made him proudest, did not even have the freedom to remain a spectator.

Even more despairing was the fact that the executioner wielding the blade was his own eldest son.

Until the moment his son appeared in the room,

he still found it hard to believe that his son would point a blade at his family.

Two blank faces turned their backs on the son who had once made them proud.

"Is it possible that these two don't even want to look at him?"

Kurama's voice sounded in Naruto's mind.

Naruto's lips curled slightly. He neither nodded nor shook his head.

Looking at their faces, though, there was not the slightest expression on them—not even tears.

Then Naruto glanced at Uchiha Obito, who was watching the spectacle from the shadows, and communicated mentally with Kurama.

"This Uchiha Itachi is the Uchiha Clan's savior on the surface."

"Even when he was acting as a Double Agent, those two probably still believed he would lead the Uchiha Clan back to its peak."

"The savior in the shadows is naturally Uchiha Obito, hiding in the dark and calling himself Madara Uchiha."

Kurama fell silent.

It knew this feeling of being stabbed in the back well.

It also understood what the numb parents before them were feeling.

"Didn't you say he had the mindset of a Hokage?"

"Yeah. Look at him. Other than tears, does he show any anger or guilt?"

"He claims he's doing it for peace in the Ninja World. Doesn't that sound lofty? Just hearing it makes people more forgiving of what he did, doesn't it?"

"Oh, right... sacrificing one's family for the greater good."

"Hahaha~!"

Kurama burst out laughing. "He killed his own parents and slaughtered an entire clan, young and old... I sensed it just now, even newborns... Sacrificing one's family for the greater good?"

"If it were really as noble as he says, didn't you mention that... what was it... Body Flicker Shisui? Right, Body Flicker Shisui. If he truly had great love in his heart, why didn't he go take revenge on Danzo?"

"If, like you said, he chooses to defect from Konoha later and uses intelligence to threaten Danzo into not touching that Brat..."

"And Shisui's eye, it was called Kotoamatsukami, right?"

"Didn't you say he later wanted that Brat to protect Konoha?"

"No matter how this old man looks at it, he seems to be doing it all for himself."

Naruto directly blocked out Kurama's endless chatter.

He knew that witnessing Filial Son's Night of the Uchiha Clan Downfall had touched some soft spot in Kurama.

Or perhaps it was shocked by everything Naruto had said before.

"Here it comes, the most ironic line of the Night of the Uchiha Clan Downfall."

Inside, Uchiha Fugaku said expressionlessly,

"Itachi, promise me one last thing. Sasuke is in your care."

"I understand..."

Filial Son raised his Ninja Sword, his hand trembling without stop.

"Don't be afraid. This is the path you chose."

Then came the line Filial Son would never forget for the rest of his life.

"Compared to you, our pain will only last an instant."

Squelch—

Whoosh—

The instant he killed Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto,

Filial Son completely lost control of his eyes.

His Three Tomoe Sharingan automatically evolved into the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Just then, "Big Brother~!"

Tap tap tap—

Uchiha Sasuke's face was filled with disbelief, his eyes thick with terror.

He staggered backward again and again before finally collapsing onto the ground.

"Why?"

"Big Brother!!!"

Uchiha Sasuke practically screamed it.

He had wanted to tell his brother what had happened today.

He could leave out the part about losing, but he could tell him that Uchiha Shisui might still be alive.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Sasuke's mind was completely blank at that moment.

"Why... Dad, Mom... and everyone in the clan... why?!"

Uchiha Sasuke truly was miserable, and truly pitiful.

At the same time, he was also the most normal one.

But... when the sky cleared, the rain stopped.

That day, Uchiha Sasuke's emotions were like a roller coaster, rising and falling before finally plunging into the abyss.

"Because I killed them all."

Uchiha Itachi's face was shrouded in darkness, with only a pair of scarlet Mangekyō Sharingan radiating chilling cold.

At those words, Uchiha Sasuke froze where he stood.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"My brother could never do something like that. There's no reason for it... right?"

Filial Son held his Ninja Sword and slowly approached Uchiha Sasuke, who was too terrified to move.

"Then see it for yourself."

With that, the Mangekyō Sharingan began to spin.

Tsukuyomi.

In an instant, Uchiha Sasuke's pupils contracted to their limit.

Then he entered the Tsukuyomi World.

He watched with his own eyes as Uchiha Itachi slaughtered his way from the ordinary people at the outskirts of the Uchiha Clan Compound to the core area.

He could only watch from the side. No matter how he shouted or raged, it was useless.

The child he had held just yesterday was brutally stabbed through the heart.

Finally, the scene came to Uchiha Itachi standing behind his parents with a Ninja Sword in hand.

Uchiha Sasuke rushed forward, shouting for him to stop.

Unfortunately, this was the Tsukuyomi World.

He could not touch those images.

With a swing of the blade, Filial Son spoke heartfelt words to his parents.

At last, Uchiha Sasuke's grief and rage reached their peak.

"Ah!!!"

When he opened his eyes again, they had become Sharingan.

In his rage, he awakened a One-Tomoe Sharingan.

"Only one tomoe?"

Even Filial Son fell silent for a moment.

"Looks like the stimulation wasn't enough. Let's do it again. Forgive me, Sasuke."

Tsukuyomi!

After going through it once more, Uchiha Sasuke was already on the verge of collapse.

And when he once again saw his parents die before his eyes, at the hands of the brother he revered most,

he cried and shouted, "Don't make me watch anymore! Don't! I don't want to see it again!"

His eyes were still only One-Tomoe.

Filial Son also ended Tsukuyomi.

Looking at his Brother, who was about to faint from excessive stimulation, Uchiha Itachi spoke those classic words.

"My foolish Little Brother..."

"Hate me. Curse me. Then live on in ugly misery like an insect... Until you possess eyes like mine, come find me again."

With that, Uchiha Sasuke fainted on his own.

Filial Son gave his Brother a deep look. Not daring to turn back and look at his parents' miserable state, he used the Body Flicker Technique and left.

Not long after Filial Son left,

Naruto slowly rose up from the ground.

"How is it?"

"Original, they're not cold yet!"

"Mm, take them away. They may be useful later."

"Forget it, keeping one is enough. Fugaku's Nutrients are crucial. They might play a key role in my eyes."

"Yes!"

The Wood Clone took away the not-yet-cold corpses of Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto.

Naruto glanced at Uchiha Sasuke and hesitated for a moment.

Then he created two Shadow Clones.

"Go take all the ninjutsu and Forbidden Technique scrolls. Leave some money for Uchiha Sasuke."

"Understood."

Just then, news came from the Clone.

Root Organization ninjas had entered.

White Zetsu had also appeared.

The two groups were heading this way.

Other than the corpses of civilians, not a single Uchiha Clan ninja—or anyone who had awakened the Sharingan—remained.

Forget the eyes; they could not even find a single hair.

The Clone using the Disguise Technique saw the Root Ninja and White Zetsu appear at the doorway at the same time.

A playful smile curled on his lips as he took the last Kunai and sank into the ground.

White Zetsu and the Root Ninja came up empty-handed.

The two groups stared at the empty room with wide eyes.

"Is that you?!" x2

Outside, Danzo had already been stripped of his position as Hokage Assistant by the promptly arriving Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Look at that. I didn't have to do anything, just come over and put on a show, take a share of the benefits, and finally strip my good buddy of his position as Hokage Assistant.

What an absolute win.

Thinking of the large number of Sharingan that would soon be his, Danzo fell silent. Without another word, he turned and left.

Even after turning away, the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than an AK.

However, when the Root Organization ninjas returned with their report, he completely lost his temper.

"Not a single one?!"

"No... There are still bloodstains on the ground, and they haven't even dried yet, but all the corpses have disappeared!"

"And not a single trace was left behind!"

"Damn it!"

Danzo roared, "Damn Madara Uchiha, you broke your word!"

"Search! Find even one if you can!"

The Spare Eyes were gone!

Could Hiruzen have done this?

Impossible!

He would not go that far... Besides, Shisui's Another Eye might be in his hands... This is infuriating!

On Obito's side, after splitting up with Uchiha Itachi,

he also received news from White Zetsu.

He froze on the spot.

After a long while, he sneered.

"Danzo?"

"You really are something."

Fortunately, he had casually collected some while killing the Guard Team earlier.

Otherwise, they might really have come back empty-handed this time.

How should he put it... smiles never disappeared; they only moved elsewhere.

And sure enough, after arriving at the temporary Supply Storage Point,

Naruto couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

"Ha ha, as expected of Konoha's number one noble clan, the Uchiha Clan!"

"They're filthy rich!"

"Fugaku, Fugaku... what a fortune."

He turned to look at the Wood Clones, sensing that every one of them was filled with Uchiha Nutrients.

"There's too much. Even absorbing it for several days might not be enough. And there are Sharingan piled up like a small mountain... the Mangekyo is guaranteed. The Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan isn't impossible either."

But soon, Naruto frowned and looked to the side.

In the corner, atop a bed of flowers created by the Woods-Woods Fruit,

Uchiha Mikoto and Uchiha Izumi lay quietly upon it.

All the wounds on their bodies had healed.

The thudding of their heartbeats showed that they were both still alive.

They only lacked the final step to awaken them.

As for Fugaku, he had already become the one with the most Nutrients in the Uchiha Clan...
