Under the moonlight, the office of the Seventh Police Division was bathed in a dim light.
At this moment, a ninja in black stealthily approached, carefully observing the surroundings to ensure no one was around. He slowly opened the drawer inside the office and took out a file that was placed at the very bottom.
From his observations over the past few days, it seemed that Uchiha Yoru was unusually tense when he first received this file. Kakashi, dressed in his night gear, opened the file with a serious expression.
He had taken this risk because Uchiha Yoru had been extremely anxious since receiving this file. He couldn't wait any longer; he feared losing the opportunity to obtain this intelligence.
When the file was opened, it revealed a scroll rather than the usual paper documents. As Kakashi unrolled the scroll, he narrowed his eyes, his mouth slightly biting the small flashlight through his mask.
The scroll contained personnel records of the Seventh Police Division and various logistical details. Although this information was valuable, it wasn't enough to make Uchiha Yoru so nervous.
'Sealing Technique? This is the Uchiha Clan's unique Sealing Technique.'
Kakashi lifted the mask over his left eye and made a hand sign, revealing a spinning Sharingan with three tomoe.
The Uchiha Clan's unique Sealing Technique could only be seen with a Sharingan. As Kakashi activated his Sharingan, the scroll revealed a completely different set of characters.
When he saw the true contents, Kakashi was stunned. This! How could this be!
Suddenly, a cold flash of light appeared, and Kakashi quickly dodged. In the darkness, a blade slashed through the air, and Kakashi hastily let go. A foot came at him from the darkness, and he barely managed to block it with his arms.
The sound of their collision was muffled, and the small flashlight spun through the air, casting chaotic shadows that illuminated the office for the two of them.
A pair of three-tomoe Sharingan eyes stared intensely at the other, one hand gripping a short blade. It was Uchiha Shisui, who was now staring in disbelief at the intruder.
The mask had been torn off during the attack, revealing Kakashi's three-tomoe Sharingan. The two of them met in the dimly lit office.
Bang~ Rumble~
The scroll fell to the floor and rolled away, exposing its contents to both of them. With the three-tomoe Sharingan's ability to perceive and copy, they quickly read the entire scroll.
"Kakashi Hatake!"
Shisui's face was dark as he stared at the other. Although he had suspected that the intruder might be an Anbu spy, he couldn't help but feel a mix of sorrow and anger when he discovered the theft. Why! Why didn't the Third Hokage trust the Uchiha! Why didn't he trust Lord Orochimaru!
In Shisui's mind, the Police Department was not just the Uchiha; it was also Orochimaru's influence.
Kakashi, now exposed, had a terrifyingly grim expression. Just as he was about to escape, the window shattered, and a bolt of lightning flashed.
Caught off guard, Kakashi let out a muffled groan as a lightning-enchanted straight blade pierced his shoulder. The electric arcs caused his body to become paralyzed, and he couldn't mobilize his chakra.
"Night! Big Brother Night!"
Shisui was shocked, but Uchiha Yoru's face was terrifyingly dark as he stared at Kakashi under his blade, his voice hoarse, "Kakashi, we were classmates, I trusted you. Why did you do this!"
Yoru's face was a mask of disbelief and betrayal as he stared at Kakashi, who was now paralyzed and unable to resist. The guilt in his heart made him lower his head, awaiting judgment.
The Kusanagi Sword was slowly pulled out of Kakashi's shoulder. Kakashi's face was ashen, and his body remained paralyzed. Yoru turned his cold gaze to Shisui.
"Shisui! What are you doing in the office!"
The cold voice echoed in the office, and Shisui was speechless. He couldn't have just happened to arrive and discover Kakashi stealing the file; he had also come to investigate.
Because! Over the past three days, Uchiha Yoru had almost been locked in the office, and although he had hidden it well, Shisui had noticed his brother's unusual tension.
Tap tap~
The sound of footsteps echoed in the dimly lit office. Yoru slowly sheathed the Kusanagi Sword and approached the fallen scroll. With his two-tomoe Sharingan, he stared at the scroll, and then, under the shocked gazes of Kakashi and Shisui, he slowly stepped on it.
Crackle~
The scroll shattered and burned, turning to ash. After completing this, Yoru turned his cold gaze to the two of them, and the atmosphere became oppressively heavy.
Kakashi had stolen the information, and Shisui had also come to investigate, but they had met each other head-on.
"You've seen it!"
The hoarse, dark voice echoed in the office. Faced with Yoru's gaze, Kakashi lowered his head in silence, perhaps grappling with the guilt of betraying his comrade. Shisui also lowered his head in shame.
In the oppressive atmosphere, Yoru slowly walked to the desk, closed the open drawer, and looked at the two of them, his head lowered, revealing only his dark, crimson eyes.
"Kakashi! I don't care about your motives or who sent you. If you dare to reveal a single word of what you saw tonight, I won't show mercy."
As he spoke, Yoru's gaze shifted to Shisui, and his crimson Sharingan eyes glowed with a murderous intent.
"This information has never been verified! It's intelligence planted by enemy spies! If it causes unrest in the village, for the sake of the village! For Konoha! I won't spare anyone, not even my comrades, clan members, or even family!"
In an instant, Yoru's figure blurred, and he kicked Shisui, who let out a muffled groan as he was sent flying into Kakashi. The two of them crashed into the wall, their collision causing cracks to form.
Yoru's crimson two-tomoe Sharingan eyes rapidly spun, filled with intense killing intent. Facing him were a pair of three-tomoe Sharingan eyes, an extremely asymmetrical scene, yet it was real.
The two of them groaned as they hit the wall, and the office's walls cracked from the impact. Yoru showed no restraint, his gaze filled with killing intent as he said, word by word, "For the sake of the village! For Konoha! I will mercilessly sever all ties!"
