Night of Clan Extermination

Konoha 59, Night.

The full moon hung high in the sky, appearing cold and serene.

On the edge of Konoha Ninja Village, the Uchiha Clan's compound was unusually quiet tonight. During the day, all clan members had been notified to gather in an orderly manner at Naka Shrine.

Squeak~

Pushing open the gate of the most luxurious building in the Uchiha compound, Uchiha Yoru stepped inside.

"Yoru, what exactly are you doing today? Why did you suddenly issue an order for a clan gathering? Why was even your Mother taken there?"

Fugaku Uchiha sat in the middle of the room, looking solemnly at the person who had entered. The current clan head of the Uchiha Clan, his eldest son, Uchiha Yoru.

Since being forced out of the clan head position by his eldest son half a year ago, he had rarely spoken proactively.

"Has Itachi not returned today?"

Uchiha Yoru did not answer Fugaku's question, but instead asked a question of his own.

"He is still carrying out Anbu missions during this period and has not returned yet."

"Then it should be in these next two days."

Night nodded.

Calculating the days, the night of the clan's extermination that had made him worry for more than ten years was finally coming!

Ever since being sent to this world by a large truck sixteen years ago, Uchiha Yoru always had an unreal feeling.

Was this still the Naruto that he had watched? Why did Fugaku Uchiha have three sons, and he had actually become Itachi's older brother.

He opened his Sharingan at the age of 10, and became a Chunin at 13. Even in the Uchiha Clan, where geniuses emerged in large numbers, Night was an undisputed genius, but in front of his younger brother Itachi's talent, he was still slightly mediocre.

So Night wanted to use love to influence Itachi, cultivating his relationship with Itachi from a young age.

But ever since Fugaku took him to the battlefield at the age of 4, the lively and cheerful Itachi slowly became less fond of smiling, with a bitter and resentful look on his face every day.

"Brother, why does life have to fight?"

Uchiha Yoru could not answer this question, but from that moment on, he knew that Itachi was still the Itachi from the plot, and he had not changed any of his thoughts.

Watching the night of the clan's extermination gradually approaching, Night wanted to run, but he could not abandon his Mother, abandon Sasuke, abandon the innocent clan members around him to run away alone. They had not done anything wrong.

He did not even have any resentment towards Itachi. Uchiha Yoru only felt a kind of pain of not being able to save his younger brother, and only being able to watch him go further and further down the wrong path.

Under the collision of the unprecedented despair of the night of the clan's extermination and the grand desire to lead the entire clan to survive.

Uchiha Yoru finally awakened the clan's ultimate power.

The Mangekyo Sharingan.

After feeling the new power contained in his eyes, Night finally found the most suitable way to break the situation for the Uchiha Clan.

"Father, have you awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Sitting on the tatami mat, Uchiha Yoru looked at Fugaku opposite him and suddenly spoke.

"What are you talking about? Wanting to show off your new power?"

Fugaku opposite him frowned slightly, looking at his eldest son with some dissatisfaction, his eyes full of pity.

Half a year ago, the Uchiha's genius Uchiha Shisui disappeared. Many clan members suspected that he had been murdered by Konoha's Anbu. At a time when the clan was in turmoil, Uchiha Yoru displayed his Mangekyo Sharingan in front of everyone.

Those were the same eyes as Uchiha Madara back then.

With these eyes, Uchiha Yoru instantly gained the support of all the radical faction, and pulled the ever-wavering Fugaku down from the position of clan head.

"The war has just ended, don't cause trouble. It was not easy to get peace, even if it is short, we must try to maintain it. This is the responsibility of the Uchiha. Konoha is not as simple as you think."

Fugaku advised with heartfelt pain.

Looking at Fugaku's flawless expression, as expected, wanting to judge whether Fugaku had the Mangekyo by asking a sudden question was still too naive.

"Itachi has also awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan," Night suddenly revealed.

"What?"

Hearing this sentence, Fugaku Uchiha's expression was a little strained. Itachi was only 13 years old this year, and he had also awakened the Uchiha Clan's ultimate power?

"I know that Konoha is not easy to deal with. Even if I awaken the Mangekyo, I probably won't be a match for the Third Generation, not to mention that there are still Danzo, Might Guy, Kakashi, Jiraiya and others in the village. Itachi is also on their side. I will not lead the Uchiha to their own destruction."

"Yoru, then why did you..."

Fugaku was really shocked this time. He had always thought that Night was taking his clan head position at the gathering, and promising the radical faction a coup d'état was because he had been blinded by power.

"I lied to them."

Uchiha Yoru suddenly smiled, just like he did when he was a child.

"It is impossible to reason with them, and I don't have that much time to persuade them. It's like this time I lied to them that I was going to prepare for an official coup d'état, and asked them to send all the men, women, old and young in the clan to Naka Shrine to hide.

In fact, I never intended to stage a coup d'état. I have used my Mangekyo to set up a new power at Naka Shrine. Everyone who goes there will be sent out of Konoha by me. Konoha no longer has a place for us."

"Yoru, you are too naive. Where can we escape to in the Ninja World? What's more, Konoha is where we have lived for generations. The Third Generation will not kill us all. As long as we..."

Fugaku was really moved. He looked at his eldest son in front of him, and it seemed that he had never understood him.

"That's why I want to become the clan head, Father. You're too indecisive. The Third Generation isn't as benevolent as you think, and Konoha has never been the place where we've lived for generations. Konoha has only been established for a few decades. Since there's no place for us here, why not leave?"

"Does it really have to come to this?"

Fugaku closed his eyes, still appearing somewhat reluctant.

Uchiha Yoru smiled and didn't answer.

After a long while, he spoke again.

"These past two days, there have been many hidden rats around the Uchiha clan grounds, so I guessed they would make their move tonight. Besides Konoha, there are others targeting the Uchiha Clan; a very powerful enemy.

I can't bear to leave Itachi alone in Konoha, but I'm also afraid I won't be able to take Itachi away with my own strength alone.

So, Father, I need you. Have you awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Night asked this question once again.

Now, with his arrangements, thousands of Uchiha have successfully left Konoha. Only he and Fugaku Uchiha remain in the entire clan grounds.

Now that things have come this far, Fugaku can't stop his decision.

If Fugaku hasn't awakened the Mangekyo, then he will send Fugaku away from Konoha.

If Fugaku has indeed awakened the Mangekyo, he still needs to rely on Fugaku's powerful strength to face the upcoming enemy.

"Although there are still many things I don't understand, I trust you. Go ahead and do it, Night."

Fugaku Uchiha stared at Night, his black pupils instantly turning scarlet. Three black tomoe spun wildly in his pupils, and the shape of the tomoe began to twist and stretch...

Looking at the complex pattern in Fugaku's eyes, it was the mark of the Mangekyo.
