Uchiha Fugaku faced Uchiha Izumi without resisting or using his Mangekyō Sharingan.
Even the reason he had chosen to pursue them alone was soon... playing out right before their eyes.
"Lord Danzou!"
The shouts of Root shinobi came from the distance.
More than twenty Root shinobi were rushing over from Konoha.
"Hmph..."
Shimura Danzō, who had reappeared, snorted coldly.
There seemed to be a hint of a smile on his face.
As long as his twenty-odd subordinates helped him stall for time,
he could eliminate Uchiha Fugaku in one fell swoop.
Just as he had eliminated Uchiha Shisui back then.

Shimura Danzō replied.
"That Dōjutsu of yours... it isn't 'Tsukuyomi,' is it...?"
Tsukuyomi.
It was Uchiha Itachi's second Dōjutsu.
Unlike Amaterasu, which destroyed everything,
Tsukuyomi could freely manipulate the flow of time within Genjutsu.
For example... one second in reality could be three days in Genjutsu, or even three years, thirty years!

"Tsukuyomi?"
Uchiha Fugaku clearly knew very little about this Dōjutsu.
In this world,
myths and legends did exist.
According to legend, there had been gods in ancient times.
Great gods such as Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi had created this world.
Of course, myths were
