Besides Anbu participating in tonight's operation, the primary participants will also include Root.

Shimura Danzo had already conducted secret transactions with Orochimaru.

With Orochimaru's help, he successfully transplanted Hashirama Cells.

Tonight is the best opportunity for him to seize the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan.

After Itachi flew away from the Hokage Tower, he did not choose to immediately return to the Uchiha Compound.

Although he had already awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, his power alone was not enough to annihilate the entire Uchiha Clan.

Itachi traversed the buildings of Konoha until he stopped in a dense forest to the east.

Standing five meters in front of Itachi was a figure wearing a black robe.

The person wore an orange mask, revealing only a left eye.

Even in the dim light of the forest, the red three-tomoe Sharingan in the left eye was visible.

He held his hands in front of his chest, leaning against a large tree, in a relaxed posture.

It was as if he had anticipated Itachi's arrival and had been waiting for a long time.

"I need your help," Itachi said, his face indifferent, directly stating his request.

"Is that so?" Under the orange mask, Uchiha Obito's mouth revealed a smile.

"It seems you've made up your mind?"

Itachi's calm expression did not waver as he slowly said:

"War between the Uchiha and Konoha will not end well, and will ultimately lead to annihilation."

"In that case, I might as well be the executioner."

"At least it can preserve the peace of Konoha."

"Preserve the peace of Konoha? Hahahaha~~" Obito suddenly burst out laughing.

What peace is there in this shinobi world? There is only killing with scheming and endless war.

Obito did not agree with this idea at all, but he did not say much.

"Helping you is not a problem, but you must also agree to my previous request."

Itachi nodded seriously: "I know, join the Akatsuki you created after it's done."

"Don't worry, after bearing the crime of slaughtering the entire clan tonight, I will have nowhere else to go."

"Joining your rogue ninja organization is my only choice, I won't go back on my word."

"Very good, let the operation to destroy the Uchiha begin now." After Obito finished speaking, a swirling spatial distortion began to appear from his left eye.

As the spatial distortion intensified, Obito was sucked into it and disappeared.

Itachi didn't linger any longer and flew towards the Uchiha Compound.

[You copied a portion of Sharingan Eye Power, Eye Power +36] [You copied a portion of Jonin's overflowing Chakra, Chakra +59] [You copied a portion of Jonin's overflowing Jonin Taijutsu energy, Taijutsu energy +53] [You copied a portion of Jonin's Fire Release Chakra experience, Fire Release Ninjutsu comprehension +63]

At the same time as Itachi met with the Third Hokage, hundreds of clansmen had already gathered in the Uchiha Clan's shrine.

Fugaku also used the power of his Mangekyo Sharingan to explain the final outcome of the Uchiha's rebellion to the clansmen through 'Fracture'.

At this time, without exception, every one of the hundreds of clansmen had sadness and helplessness on their faces.

"Clan Head!! Why? Why did you only tell us this now?"

"Is it really the will of heaven that my Uchiha Clan is doomed and only awaits death?"

"If Shisui were still alive, things might have taken a turn for the better with his Sharingan eye technique abilities."

The clansmen eagerly asked Fugaku about his next plans, and many also expressed their intention to fight Konoha to the end.

"Quiet!! Everyone, wait a moment."

"Mingyou may be the hope for saving our Uchiha Clan."

Fugaku raised his hands slightly, signaling everyone not to rush.

Then he turned to look at Mingyou, who had been keeping his eyes closed, and asked with anticipation, "Mingyou... how is it?"

[Your Eye Power has reached the evolution standard, do you want to start evolution?] [Your Chakra has reached the evolution standard, do you want to start evolution?] [Your Taijutsu energy has reached the evolution standard, do you want to start evolution?]

At the same time as Fugaku asked, the system prompts in Mingyou's mind kept ringing.

"Evolve."

Mingyou issued the command in his mind.

[Evolution successful, congratulations on unlocking the Mangekyo Sharingan.] [Sharingan: LV4 (103/10000)] [Evolution successful, congratulations on your Chakra level advancing to Kage-level.] [Chakra Level: LV4 (86/20000)] [Evolution successful, congratulations on your Taijutsu advancing to Jonin-level.] [Taijutsu: LV3 (306/10000)]

Seeing Fugaku place his hopes on a good-for-nothing son, the Uchiha clansmen were not only puzzled but also felt somewhat angered.

They knew Mingyou's strength all too well.

He only just graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of 13, and even then, he was a repeat student.

"Clan Head, are you confused? Mingyou may be your son, but we all know his strength."

"That's right, Clan Head, what exactly do you see in Mingyou?"

After waiting for a long time, many clansmen became impatient and began to shout loudly.

"Mangekyo Sharingan!!"

Mingyou opened his eyes, and as the tomoe spun, two Uchiha clan crests formed in his red eyeballs.

Mingyou's gaze swept over all the clansmen below with a chilling intensity, and the dignity and confidence he exuded made them all tremble in their hearts.

"Did Mingyou unlock the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

"Is that real? Am I seeing things?"

"There's no mistake, that Uchiha clan crest pattern must be the Mangekyo Sharingan."

At that moment, no one dared to voice any further doubts.

In the Uchiha Clan, not many people had unlocked the Mangekyo Sharingan.

In recent years, besides Fugaku and Itachi, there had only been Shisui Uchiha.

Unexpectedly, Mingyou had now unlocked the Mangekyo Sharingan as well.

Within the Uchiha Clan, strength represented absolute status.

From that moment on, no clansman considered Mingyou to be a good-for-nothing anymore.

"Mingyou... I didn't expect you to actually succeed."

Fugaku trembled slightly with excitement, his hands grasping Mingyou's shoulders, a layer of mist forming in his eyes.

Although he didn't know if Mingyou could bring a better future to the Uchiha Clan, Fugaku also believed that Mingyou was the Uchiha's only hope now.

At the same time, Itachi, who had been searching for a long time in the Uchiha Compound without finding anyone, suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Uchiha shrine.

"Father, are you gathering the clansmen to revolt against Konoha tonight?"

Itachi drew the Ninja Tachi from his back, his pair of crimson Mangekyo Sharingan scanning over everyone present, ready to unleash a slaughter at any moment.

"Itachi, you ultimately made this choice."

Fugaku looked at his son with eyes full of helplessness.

He was the one who personally sent Itachi into Anbu, which led to the situation today.
