Konoha Year 55, a blood moon hung in the sky.
A chilling aura permeated the entire Uchiha Clan compound, yet no one noticed.
Uchiha Itachi put on his gear, his short sword sheathed. He gently caressed the Konoha forehead protector on his brow, an emblem of his pride, and his eyes became incredibly resolute.
"A foolish clan, a foolish younger brother… At thirteen, I am so lonely, so tired…" Uchiha Itachi murmured to himself… The first household was Uchiha Kenta's.
Kenta was a Chunin in the clan, gentle-natured, and always greeted Itachi warmly whenever he saw him.
Itachi silently infiltrated the courtyard, and through the paper door, he saw Kenta kneeling before a low table, grading student assignments—he taught at the Ninja Academy.
Itachi's Sharingan glowed with an eerie red light in the darkness. His Three-Tomoe slowly rotated, and he saw the Chakra pathways flowing within Kenta's body, and the most vulnerable artery in his neck.
The paper door was silently pulled open. Kenta looked up, a gentle smile still on his face: "Itachi-kun? So late…"
A flash of a blade, and warm blood spurted from Kenta's throat.
His eyes widened, staring in disbelief at his young clan head, whom he had once been so proud of.
The assignment book was soaked in blood, and the half-graded student name "Uchiha Sasuke" gradually became stained red.
Kenta's wife rushed out from the kitchen, still carrying the late-night snack she had prepared for her husband.
"Kenta? What was that sou…" Her question was forever cut short in her throat.
Itachi's blade pierced her heart, dishes crashed to the floor, and miso soup splattered everywhere.
Children's cries came from upstairs.
Itachi ascended the stairs, his steps as light as a cat's.
Four-year-old Uchiha Shota stood in the hallway, clutching a doll, rubbing his eyes: "Dad? Mom?"
A cold flash… The doll's head and the boy's head simultaneously fell to the ground… Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura were engaged in their usual bickering.
Danzo Shimura's cane slammed against the floor, emitting a crisp "thud."
"Hiruzen! Itachi is about to act, we must go and assist him! My Root members are already assembled! I know your Anbu members are also ready!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly took a puff from his five-million-ryo-a-bag pipe: "No! We cannot lay hands on our comrades in the Village!"
Danzo Shimura's single eye widened: "Hiruzen!"
Beside them, Homura Mitokado and Utatane Koharu, sipping three-million-ryo-a-pack Tamashiki tea, looked left and right, their gazes shifting between their two arguing old friends.
A cloud of smoke exhaled from the Third Hokage's mouth as he "anxiously" paced around the room: "There must be another way. The Uchiha have been our comrades for decades!"
Danzo Shimura snorted: "Suit yourself. I'm going to act! For Konoha's safety, I must go and surround them first."
With that, Danzo prepared to turn and leave.
Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke sternly: "Danzo! Only surround them, don't do anything unnecessary!"
Danzo Shimura spun around abruptly: "What did you say? If the Uchiha react, do you know how many people will die?"
"Root must act!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: "No!"
Danzo: "For Konoha, I must act!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Danzo! I said no!"
Danzo Shimura: "Hiruzen!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi: "I am the Hokage!"
Danzo Shimura: "…Hmph! You'll regret this!"
"Bang!"
Having said that, Danzo slammed the door and left.
Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado exchanged glances, then said: "Hiruzen, although Danzo's tone wasn't good, what he said isn't without reason!"
Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, puffing smoke, his old eyes filled with sorrow: "It's all my fault, for not finding a better way to handle the Uchiha matter."
After trying for a long time but failing to shed tears, Hiruzen Sarutobi continued: "There's a spy disguised as one of our Village Ninja operating in the northeast of the Village. Notify Anbu to blockade that area… Kill on sight!"
…Within the Uchiha Clan compound, a dark figure rushed into a courtyard. A ninety-year-old man, stargazing by the door, was slit across the throat, unable to even make a sound.
The dark figure entered the house, killed a couple and two nursing infants, then flashed to the next household.
The entire process took less than ten seconds. Each time the dark figure moved, it meant another family had been erased.
Having just killed a pregnant woman, taking two lives with one body, the man of the house rushed out. He was an Uchiha Jonin, possessing a Three-Tomoe Sharingan!
"Clang!"
After blocking the dark figure's attack, the man shouted loudly, trying to alert his clan members for help.
However, his voice was blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to transmit. The man stared at the killer's waist, where a peculiar Chakra array stone was located.
"That's… an Anbu Mobile Barrier Stone!?"
"Swish!"
The dark figure's speed was extremely fast, instantly appearing before the man in a flash, and stabbing his heart with a blade.
At such close range, the man finally saw the dark figure's face. He spoke with anger and unwillingness: "Young… young clan head… why?!"
"This is not only a gap in strength, but also a gap in ocular power!"
Uchiha Itachi did not look at the fallen man again. He turned to move to the next house, but his steps suddenly stopped.
He glanced at the bodies on the ground, muttering to himself: "I remember there were five people in Uchiha Saigun's family, not counting the unborn…"
Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan scanned around, quickly pinpointing a location. He went to a wardrobe, opened its door, reached in, grabbed a three-year-old girl's tender ankle, and pulled her out.
The little girl's baby-fat hands desperately clung to the wardrobe, crying out in her still-imperfect speech: "Itachi-nii-san, Itachi-nii-san! Don't kill me… Don't…"
"Pfft!"
With a swift motion of the blade, the snot-and-tear-streaked little head rolled away, and blood splattered everywhere.
The baby-fat hands were still clawing at the wardrobe, the muscles seemingly unaware that their body had already died.
Uchiha Itachi did not delay for a second, flashing to the next house to kill.
A young mother, telling her child the "First Hokage story" to lull him to sleep, suddenly felt a chill at her neck. The next second, blood sprayed onto her child's face.
Even so, the young woman, not yet immediately dead, instinctively fell onto her child, trying to protect him.
However, with a "pfft," the sharp blade accurately pierced through the woman's body, plunging into the heart of the child who had just been startled awake.
The blood moon hung high, and the demon flickered, as life after life continuously vanished from one household after another.
In truth, there were many strong individuals among the Uchiha Clan, but they were facing the clan's top-tier combat power—the Mangekyo Sharingan!
Not only was their proud Sharingan completely useless, being fully countered, but more importantly, everyone was at home in their most relaxed state, while the killer was fully armed!
After all, with the elite of the Police Force present, usually no one would have the opportunity to infiltrate the clan compound.
But no one expected such a filial son to emerge from within the family, catching them completely off guard.
At the same time, the Uchiha Police Force headquarters was also in disarray. A Tiger-Skin Masked Man killed the last on-duty Uchiha Ninja and slowly walked out of the Police Force gate.
Uchiha Izumi, who happened to be passing by, threw a shuriken, accurately piercing the Masked Man's head.
Izumi's lips curled slightly. This was a specialty technique her boyfriend Itachi had taught her!
"Thunk, thunk, thunk!"
However, the shuriken directly passed through the Tiger-Skin Masked Man's head and embedded itself in a wooden pillar behind him, making a crisp sound.
"What?!"
Izumi couldn't help but be startled, her beautiful eyes wide open, her pupils contracting sharply.
She deeply realized the terrifying strength of the Tiger-Skin Masked Man opposite her; she was absolutely no match for him!
"Run!"
At this moment, Uchiha Izumi had only this one thought in her mind!
So, she turned and ran.
However, a pitch-black chain, like a python, coiled around her, instantly binding her hands and slender waist tightly.
Then Uchiha Izumi felt a huge force, immediately lost her balance, fell to the ground, and was dragged across the ground, getting closer and closer to the demon-like man.
"Itachi… save me quickly!"
Tears of despair streamed from Izumi's eyes, and she called out her boyfriend's name, hoping he would suddenly appear and save her.
