The two of them left the Land of Stone.

Near the border of Konoha.

Uchiha Chuanyu found a quiet cave.

"Karin, stay alert."

"Call me immediately if you sense anything."

Karin nodded.

Chuanyu turned and walked into the cave.

He checked his injuries.

They didn't seem to be anything serious.

However, the Mangekyo in his left eye had reached its limit.

It had now lost its ocular power.

In the battle against the White Snake Sage's clone.

Chuanyu had deliberately pushed the Mangekyo to its maximum potential.

His goal was to attain eternity.

He took Shisui's Mangekyo out from the system.

Chuanyu hesitated for a moment.

"Shisui..."

"This day has finally come, after all..."

Squelch.

He gouged out the Mangekyo that had lost its light.

Chuanyu replaced it with Shisui's eye.

He wrapped it in white gauze.

Now, Chuanyu only needed to wait patiently for the eye to fuse.

Year 55 of the Konoha era.

A year had passed.

Danzō had completely run out of patience with the Uchiha.

But now, he seemed even more interested in that Mangekyo of Shisui's.

The reason he had delayed taking action was to track down Uchiha Chuanyu.

Yet, whether in Konoha or the surrounding borders.

There was no trace of him ever appearing.

It was as if Uchiha Chuanyu had simply vanished.

Previously, Orochimaru had helped clear Chuanyu's name.

Danzō had considered that perhaps he knew Chuanyu's whereabouts.

But now, because Orochimaru's insane human experiments had affected the entirety of Konoha.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had taken a series of measures to stop him once he discovered them.

In the end.

Orochimaru defected...

Danzō had truly gone to great lengths.

"Three days!"

"If you still can't find Uchiha Chuanyu!"

"We begin the Clan Annihilation Plan!"

He smashed the table in front of him into splinters with a single punch.

The Root ninja beside him were startled.

Uchiha compound.

Itachi did not go to the Anbu today.

He was usually too busy.

But now, he especially wanted to spend more time with Sasuke.

However, ever since his meeting with Danzō.

Itachi had become restless every day.

He thought about going to see Hiruzen Sarutobi.

It was all for Sasuke's safety.

If the Uchiha had no intentions of a coup.

Everything would be wonderful.

Peaceful.

He knew this was already a foregone conclusion.

He might as well do it himself.

And then, protect his younger brother.

This was likely the only way.

Regarding his clansmen.

Itachi's heart was broken.

"Sasuke."

"If one day I'm no longer here."

"Will you be a good boy and listen to your second brother?"

He pinched Sasuke's round, chubby cheeks.

Itachi's eyes were filled with doting affection.

"Brother, what are you saying!"

"I'll be a good boy and listen to both you and Second Brother!"

"But what do you mean by saying you won't be here one day?"

"Are you going away?"

Sasuke suddenly reached out his small hand and gripped Itachi's sleeve tightly.

His reluctant gaze was mixed with confusion.

At this moment.

Itachi felt a faint ache in his heart.

How he wished he didn't have to carry out that inhumane plan!

It's all for you...

Sasuke...

Three days later.

On the morning of the Clan Annihilation Plan.

Uchiha Fugaku was as he always was.

After finishing breakfast.

He put on his clan emblem.

Itachi happened to walk out of the room.

The two looked at each other simultaneously.

"Itachi, still no news of Chuan Yu lately?"

Fugaku checked the mirror and adjusted his collar.

"Apologies, Father..."

Itachi responded with an expressionless face.

Just as Fugaku was about to head out.

Itachi suddenly pointed to the emblem on his chest.

"Father..."

"The clan emblem has rusted."

Fugaku paused for a moment.

Then he looked down at the emblem on his chest.

The red and white surface was already covered in a thick layer of rust.

"I haven't paid attention for a long time; it really has rusted quite badly."

"I'll need to replace it with a new one later."

"Itachi, thank you for the reminder."

"I'm off."

Fugaku seemed to be in a good mood today.

At the moment he stepped out the door.

Itachi finally felt a weight lift from his heart.

He had just warned Fugaku.

Yet, Fugaku had not cared in the slightest.

After tidying up briefly, Itachi eventually headed toward the Hokage Building.

At the border of Konoha.

Removing the bandage from his left eye, Chuan Yu stepped out of the cave and slowly opened his eyes.

His blurred vision wavered for a moment.

He looked down at his own hands.

Everything finally came into focus...

"Chuan Yu, your eyes!"

Gazing at Chuan Yu's left eye, Karin gasped, covering her mouth in shock.

A rotating pattern overlaid the edges of the hexagonal design.

The blood-red pattern was etched with a distinct, contoured mark.

"An unexpected surprise, it seems..."

"The Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan..."

He had finally waited for this moment.

Chuan Yu spread his arms wide and took a deep breath.

"Tonight..."

"Will be the moment I unleash the slaughter..."

Hokage Building.

Itachi knelt before Hiruzen Sarutobi.

After Itachi relayed Danzō's decision to Hiruzen Sarutobi, He had actually agreed to it.

It turned out that Hiruzen Sarutobi was fully aware of everything.

On the surface, he had not agreed, or perhaps he had remained silent.

Yet, in the shadows, he had already made the arrangements.

Itachi remembered clearly that back then, on the document for the Clan Annihilation Plan, there had been no signature from Hiruzen Sarutobi at all.

"Rest assured."

"Leave Sasuke to me."

After Hiruzen Sarutobi gave his word, Itachi turned and left.

"Hiruzen, I was right, wasn't I?"

"In the end, I won."

From behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzō walked out slowly.

"But since I have already promised Itachi,"

"let Sasuke be..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed helplessly.

To this day, the Clan Annihilation Plan was the most foolish thing he felt he had ever done.

Losing the Uchiha clan.

Konoha is bound to suffer a heavy blow.

For a very long time.

Konoha will have to seclude itself from the world...

He arrived at the stream where he once trained with Shisui.

Itachi could not help but recall the scenes from the past.

At that time, at least Shisui was still alive...

Itachi did not know what he would do if Shisui were standing in his shoes right now.

How he would act.

Suddenly.

Several shuriken flew toward him.

Itachi flipped his body and dodged them quickly.

"Brother Itachi..."

"You were still careless."

Hearing this voice.

Itachi froze.

He whipped his head around.

Chuan Yu was looking at his face with a smile.

The two of them just stared at each other like that.

A full three minutes passed.

"Brother Itachi..."

"I will go find Danzō myself tonight."

Chuan Yu spoke indifferently.

The Eternal Mangekyo in his left eye suddenly appeared.

"You have already reached the Eternal state?!"

Itachi was instantly shocked.

He vaguely remembered.

When he first went to the gates of the Hyuga clan.

Chuan Yu was still just a pitiful child.

"That's right..."

"You should understand what possessing the Eternal Mangekyo symbolizes, right?"

"From the day you gave me that eye of Shisui's..."

"I have been making a decision..."

"As long as one can see far enough..."

"Then one can walk at the very forefront of everyone else..."

"The Uchiha were not wrong."

Chuan Yu looked at Itachi earnestly.

Then, he took out a talisman imprinted with the character for "Mist" from his robes.

"Believe in me..."

"Brother Itachi..."

"I have waited too long for this day."

Itachi's heart was in turmoil at this moment.

Chuan Yu's sudden appearance had disrupted his original plan.

The Eternal Mangekyo was the symbol of the Uchiha's power.

The faith of the clan.

If Chuan Yu appeared before the clansmen now.

He would surely be embraced as their leader.

Including by himself.

At this moment, when Itachi saw Chuan Yu's Eternal Mangekyo, he did not have a shred of hesitation.

"Chuan Yu."

"I have always believed in you."

Itachi responded to Chuan Yu with a faint smile.

The two hit it off immediately.

Without further hesitation.

Chuan Yu crushed the talisman Ao had left behind.

Night fell.

Hiashi Hyuga led a group of his clansmen, preparing to head toward the Uchiha compound.

On the eaves of the Hyuga Shrine.

The figures of Itachi and Obito suddenly appeared.

"I don't quite understand what you're trying to do."

Obito looked at Itachi.

He felt somewhat frustrated.

"Rest assured, tonight."

"I will still leave with you..."

Itachi spoke slowly.

"Fine, I'll listen to you."

The two exchanged a glance and leaped down from the eaves of the Hyuga Shrine.

Root.

Danzō stood beneath a tree, gazing up at the moon in the sky.

Eight quarter-hours had already passed.

There hadn't been a single scrap of news from the Uchiha side.

A sense of unease suddenly stirred within him.

Moonlight flooded the earth.

With the Kusanagi Sword strapped to his back.

Chuan Yu's figure appeared behind Danzō.

A violent wind rose in fury.

The dark clouds in the sky churned rapidly.

Thunder rumbled, shaking the heavens.

A torrential downpour swept in.

The moment the second bolt of lightning struck.

White electric light blanketed the entire forest.

"Wind Style! Vacuum Wave!"

Before Chuan Yu could react.

Danzō had already sensed his arrival!

A sharp, blade-like aura, reminiscent of a kamaitachi, was spat from Danzō's mouth.

Chuan Yu looked at the Danzō before him with a blank expression.

In Chuan Yu's eyes, at this moment.

He was already a corpse.

His left eye slowly closed.

The blood in his body reversed its flow!

His entire consciousness began to fluctuate!

A power he had never possessed before surged over his body!

Suddenly, a flash of green light shot into the sky!

Like a giant long dormant.

A massive arm reached out and grabbed Danzō firmly.

"Danzō..."

"You couldn't have forgotten this scene, could you..."

"The harm you inflicted upon Shisui..."

"Tonight, I will repay it a hundredfold!"

"The third power that exists within the Uchiha!"

"Susanoo!!!"

He suddenly opened his left eye.

Danzō stared in terror at the massive Green Gundam behind Chuan Yu.
