You're not Fugaku at all!

"Ha! Ha!"

Uchiha Tekka struggled in agony.

Countless splinters caused him excruciating pain; even more terrifying, those splinters were sucking his blood...

This kind of death is even more terrifying than being stabbed to death!

Bang!

Obito threw him directly into the air, sending him crashing into a section of wall.

He was about to move on to the next one.

Lin struggled to get up.

"Obito! Grandma, how is Grandma?"

"Grandmother?"

Obito was in a daze when a sliver of clarity returned to his mind.

Right!

grandmother...

"Lin, Grandma is badly injured! Please, please help me! Please save her!"

"I will, I will!"

Lin's forehead was also bleeding; the brief lack of oxygen had left her mind foggy and buzzing.

After walking a few steps, Obito immediately helped her to her grandmother's side.

She barely managed to stay upright.

Investigate and examine injuries.

Lin suddenly became more alert.

This injury...

She Hand Seals, extracted Chakra, and the Mystical Palm Technique appeared in her hands.

The Chakra slowly healed the old woman's internal and external injuries.

But.

The aura emanating from the other party was still slowly fading.

She looked at Obito, her lips trembling.

Obito's eyes were filled with panic.

"Lin, save her!"

"Obito..."

"Save her! Please!"

Obito sobbed softly.

"I'm trying to save them!"

Lin's tone also carried a sense of helplessness.

She was trying to save them, but...

There are many illnesses that even Medical Ninja are powerless to treat, let alone given her current poor condition.

The breath slowly faded from the old woman's body.

Obito slumped helplessly to the ground, knowing his grandmother was beyond saving. Watching Rin trying her best to save her, he forced a smile.

"Lin, I'm very grateful to you! But that's enough..."

"No, there's still hope! Let me try again!"

Lin made one last effort.

At that moment, all she wanted was to save a patient.

However.

At that moment, streams of Kunai, Kunai with an Explosive Tag attached, shot towards them from afar.

"You actually killed Brother Tekka! You two should both die!"

Obito's pupils contracted, and he instantly turned his head.

A dozen or so Explosive Tag!

At a time like this, these people actually wanted to kill them both!

Obito's hatred, anger, and despair erupted in that instant, just like the Explosive Tag earlier...

Call out!

The space before them distorted, transforming into a spatial Uzumaki.

Boom!

Within the space-time tunnel, faint sounds of explosions could still be heard, but the Kakkō only spread over a small area and did not affect Obito and Rin.

How is that possible?

The other Uchiha clan members were stunned.

Is this Ninjutsu, the Flying Thunder God?

But.

Where did Obito Uchiha learn the Flying Thunder God Technique?

This guy has absolutely no chance of accessing that level of Ninjutsu, unless...

"Flying Thunder God Technique! This guy is a traitor! This is a trap set by Konoha!"

Someone shouted loudly.

but.

Soon, the spatial Uzumaki reappeared, quickly tearing them all into it.

Obito's eyes were bleeding and filled with tears.

Blood and tears are no longer indistinguishable.

He roared to the sky, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Lin lay on the increasingly cold body, weeping silently...

She can't be saved!

"Teacher, Teacher, there must be a way!"

"And I need to get the message out!"

Lin immediately picked up the old lady and rushed towards Konoha Hospital.

The next instant, Obito appeared in the middle of the group, and a fierce storm of wooden spikes erupted from his body.

Kamui!

His terrifying Space-Time Ninjutsu, combined with the Wood Release he gained from transplanted cells, engulfed everyone around him.

No matter how strong the Sharingan, or how clearly it can see the trajectory of the wooden spikes, the surrounding space is chaotic, making it impossible to discern the correct location.

The Uchiha clan members immediately let out a piercing wail.

They died.

Blood was everywhere.

Obito Uchiha stood on the roof of his house, utterly bewildered.

Grandma died.

Home...

That's all!

He clutched his head, howling in pain, wanting nothing more than to escape and leave this world.

The next instant, Obito vanished from his spot.

White Zetsu and a portion of Black Zetsu emerged from the earth.

"What terrifying power!"

"This is the Mangekyō Sharingan. Now, he truly deserves to be called a tool."

The Black Zetsu clone replied indifferently, "Let's go check out the other side; it should be starting soon there too."

Uchiha Clan Compound, the location of the clan head Fugaku Uchiha.

Suddenly--

The screams were deafening.

Fugaku was covered in cold sweat and instantly sat up in bed.

"What happened?"

"Ah?"

Mikoto Uchiha looked bewildered.

She didn't hear anything unusual.

but...

She trusted her husband's judgment.

"Perhaps, there's been another conflict within the family?"

"Hope is just a contradiction."

Fugaku quickly dressed, fully armed in less than half a minute.

Be careful!

"Um."

Mikoto nodded.

She also put on the ninja vest and equipment that she hadn't used in a long time.

If internal strife truly erupts within the family, Fugaku is held back, then...

In the family, the only one who can protect Itachi is herself!

But in reality--

Within the clan, most people looked completely bewildered.

Which direction is that?

That area...

They do not recall having any combat objectives.

"It seems to be the traitor's grandmother's house."

There is only one "traitor".

Obito Uchiha.

If it weren't for Obito Uchiha, they wouldn't have ended up like this today.

Even if this was entirely their own choice.

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

At this moment, an elder sneered.

"It must be Tekka and his group. Tsunade's disciples often come to the Uchiha, and Tekka has long been dissatisfied with her. It must be them."

Then, he squinted and chuckled, "Fugaku should have gone, so... that's our chance!"

You mean...?

"Capture Mikoto Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha, and recruit Fugaku and Shisui to our side!"

The old man said in a low voice.

Even though they disagreed with Fugaku and Shisui on political matters, one thing had to be acknowledged—

These two are extremely powerful!

Only with their help could the Uchiha truly give their all.

"The elder is right. Let's go to the Fugaku head together and ask him and his mother to persuade him to change his mind!"

"Yes, yes!"

"Persuade the clan chief to change his mind!"

They quickly found a perfectly legitimate reason.

It wasn't about betrayal or coercion, but rather a hope that the mother and son could persuade Fugaku not to let the family kill each other!

The eyes of the group were filled with excitement.

Upon arriving at the scene, Fugaku saw corpses scattered everywhere and traces of Wood Release techniques, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

His first instinct was to visualize the battle in his mind—

Tekka and his gang planned to ambush and kill Rin Nohara, who had come to provide free medical treatment.

Then, somehow, Kyohiko arrived by Flying Thunder God and instantly killed everyone!

If that's the case, Uchiha and Konoha...

but.

As Fugaku trembled, yet had to examine the situation carefully, he quickly realized something was wrong.

because...

Too weak!

Although Fugaku had never seen Kyohiko's Wood Release, he had heard that Kyohiko's Wood Release was comparable to that of the First Hokage, and that he could wipe out a ninja army of hundreds from Sunagakure by himself.

and.

Kyohiko's strength in other areas is also undeniable.

Did we really need Wood Release to deal with people like Tekka? Did we really need to fight them like this?

Are you kidding me?

Furthermore, Tekka's throat was pierced by countless wooden splinters, and he was nailed to the wall with wood.

It seems his enemy harbors a deep-seated hatred for him!

in addition...

What about Rin Nohara and Obito's Grandmother?

Fugaku stood before a solitary stain of blood, an unbelievable and terrifying thought flashed through his mind.

Could it be...?

Obito Uchiha?

"Not good!"

Fugaku suddenly realized--

He thought a large-scale conflict had broken out here, which is why he rushed over, but that was not the case.

That...

The house is in danger!

He knew those old folks in the family all too well.

They lack the courage to confront the strong head-on, but they are very bold in bullying the weak.

"Itachi, don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! Mom will protect you! Mom will lead you out of here!"

Mikoto gripped her Kunai, watching the elders outside tremble.

She hasn't fought in a long time.

and.

Those were all members of our clan!

Why did the Uchiha reach this point?

She felt sadness, but even more so, anger.

These people are just saying nice things; in reality, they just want to capture them to threaten Fugaku!

"Mother, we must hold our ground. Father will surely come to our aid, and Shisui and the village will not stand idly by."

Itachi Uchiha said calmly.

Mikoto paused, then nodded absently, "Yes, we should hold on..."

She felt somewhat ashamed.

As a mother, she should have stood in front of Itachi, but now Itachi is calmer than her.

Hold fast!

She took a deep breath.

"Everyone, Fugaku is asleep. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Asleep? Mikoto, how can he sleep when the family is in such turmoil?"

Outside, Yoshinori let out a cold laugh.

As he spoke, he activated his Sharingan and scanned his surroundings.

After confirming there were no traces of Chakra, they led the way forward.

"Mikoto, I'm afraid Fugaku isn't here. How about this, you and Itachi come out and come with us to talk to Fugaku."

Yoshinori Uchiha's face was filled with coldness and murderous intent.

If they don't come out, he'll have no choice but to fight his way in.

Mikoto was silent for a moment, then looked at Itachi beside her, handed him Kunai, and took a sword from the shelf next to her.

"We fight side by side!"

"Um!"

The mother and son nodded.

The footsteps outside grew closer.

Yoshinori Uchiha couldn't wait any longer.

The sword was slowly drawn from its sheath.

There is no turning back in this battle!

Crack!

A sharp sound.

Yoshinori moved forward more than ten steps in an instant, and in a flash he was in front of the gate, cleaving it in two with a single stroke.

In situations like this, all that's missing is someone to make the first move.

The instant Yoshinori Yoshiki made his move, several figures rushed forward without his permission, heading straight for the Fugaku Uchiha.

A fierce battle is inevitable!

"Charge in and grab them!"

Elder Yoshinori waved his hand.

The men chopped down the door, and in an instant—

Boom!

A violent explosion occurred inside the house!

Yoshinori Uchiha's pupils contracted, not expecting Mikoto Uchiha to be so resolute, directly setting up an Explosive Tag trap in her home.

The first few people to rush in were severely injured in the explosion, and some even died instantly.

The dozen or so people who followed immediately stopped in their tracks.

this...

They looked at each other, then finally glanced at Yoshinori Uchiha behind them.

"Elder, what is this?"

They dared not kill Mikoto and Itachi, but the enemy could use various Explosive Tag to kill them; this was not a fair fight at all.

If things continue like this...

They might not be able to capture Mikoto and Itachi before Fugaku Uchiha returns.

Yoshinori Uchiha's gaze was icy. "Since that's the case, we don't need to worry about it. Just leave one behind!"

"Yes!"

Swish!

One figure after another instantly slipped into various parts of the Fugaku mansion, observing and monitoring from all directions before sneaking inside.

Mikoto hid in a corner of the room.

She knew she couldn't go to the basement.

I don't know Earth Style is a type of magic technique), going there would be a dead end!

Itachi and she stood back to back.

They could feel each other's heartbeats.

This is a battle for survival.

The room where they were hiding didn't last long; in just a moment, a knife pierced through from the outside.

Then--

Boom!

A huge flame blasted in from the outside.

Mikoto Uchiha's pupils contracted, and she quickly Hand Seals. However, before she could complete the Hand Seals, Itachi beside her had already finished Hand Seals.

Fire Style: Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!

The flames partially neutralized the fire, allowing Mikoto to catch up with her Chakra output.

Boom!

Flames collide and neutralize.

Several people suddenly attacked from his side.

Bang!

Smoke exploded on the ground.

Itachi threw down a smoke bomb, then grabbed his mother and ran away quickly.

There are too many people!

We can't beat them!

but--

"Mikoto, you should give up. I don't want to hurt you. I just want you to talk to Fugaku together so that it doesn't lead to infighting among your own kind."

"Don't force us to take action!"

Yoshinori blocked their escape route.

Mikoto Uchiha said coldly, "Isn't that exactly what you're doing right now?"

"We're on the right track, but Fugaku is too foolish, stubbornly insisting on cooperating with Konoha... We're just trying to force him to join us."

"Put down your weapon, or... I will kill you!"

Yoshinori Uchiha.

He really didn't want things to come to that, but with such a huge commotion, Fugaku Uchiha returned quickly, and he had to subdue either Mikoto or Itachi before they came back.

Choke!

His answer was a knife.

Yoshinori Uchiha was old, but Mikoto hadn't been on the battlefield for many years, and women are naturally weaker, so their clash resulted in a 50/50 split.

"Kill her!"

Yoshinori Uchiha took a step back, his tone icy.

moment...

The wind howled!

Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!

As the smoke cleared, four or five people charged towards Mikoto, and in an instant—

Choke!

A figure appeared in Body Flicker Technique, attacking Yoshinori Uchiha.

Yoshinori Uchiha and instantly drew his sword to defend, but in the blink of an eye, the figure in front of him turned into a blur.

Shadow Clone?

The next moment, a tremendous force came from beneath my feet.

Double Suicide Decapitation Technique?

Wrong!

Genjutsu!

Yoshinori Uchiha's eye power rebounded, and he dodged to the side, but the blade, writhing in flames, instantly swallowed his throat.

Ninja Blade Technique!

"Fugaku" stood beside Yoshinori Uchiha, holding a sword in one hand.

"I've killed Yoshinori, so if you spare me, I'll only punish the ringleaders!"

The entire room fell silent.

Mikoto's eyes lit up with joy as she led Itachi toward Fugaku.

Can...

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

"The patriarch doesn't need to launch a sneak attack at all, and the flow of Chakra within him is off. He's definitely not the patriarch!"

Someone shouted.

"Now, we have no way to back down. Killing him will reveal who it is!"

Damn it!

Shisui harbored a deep resentment.

He had thought that assassinating Yoshinori would quell the war, but things didn't turn out that way...

These people really intend to lead their clans to betray Konoha!
