Looking at Sasuke, unconscious before him, Itachi shed two trails of clear tears from his blood-red eyes. "I'm sorry, Sasuke. This is the only thing your brother can do. Forgive me."
After taking one last deep look at his younger brother, he turned away without hesitation. The short blade on his back left its sheath once more, and the pattern of the Mangekyō Sharingan appeared in his eyes.
This time, there would be no life left in the entire Uchiha compound...
A new wave of slaughter began. This time, Uchiha Itachi used large-scale destructive ninjutsu, awakening the Uchiha clansmen.
But without Uchiha Fugaku's leadership, and with even the hidden guards wiped out in unknown numbers, their attacks posed no threat whatsoever against Uchiha Itachi, who possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Flames began rising throughout the compound. Uchiha Itachi was like an Asura returned from hell, bringing nothing but slaughter and destruction.
Elsewhere, masked Obito turned his head toward the blaze soaring into the sky and murmured, "It's really lively. That Itachi... Looks like I'll have to speed things up on my end too." As he spoke, he glanced aside. Blades gleaming with cold light passed through his body, while three Uchiha ninja surrounded him from the front, rear, and left. They had rushed out after Uchiha Itachi woke them, only to run into Obito.
"It's been a long time since I stretched my limbs. I'll use you to warm up." He muttered, tightening the chains around his wrists. His sole remaining Three Tomoe eye narrowed slightly before he suddenly charged at the three ninja before him.
The bloody slaughter continued for a long time. Gradually, the Uchiha clansmen began to feel fear. The gap between them and Uchiha Itachi was simply too great; they could not pose enough of a threat
