"Go to the Police Force first. The ninjas here will be dealt with; they can't escape!"
Uchiha Itachi, still affected by having killed children and women earlier, decided to first eliminate the core strength of the Uchiha clan.
These women and children...
They can wait until the end. They pose no threat to him—they're like sheep waiting in the pen to be slaughtered.
"Is the real hunt about to begin? Haha."
Obito laughed, his voice filled with amusement as he followed Itachi. "Now this is interesting!"
Both of them carried an aura of killing intent.
Their first target was the Uchiha Police Force, followed by the ninjas at the Merchant Association.
By now, the moon was already high in the sky.
The bloodlust emanating from the two ensured the night would be anything but peaceful.
At the Police Force, in a hidden corner...
Genya opened his eyes, looking in the direction of Fugaku and the Second Elder.
"Itachi has already started? How ruthless. To begin by killing his own parents and massacring his entire clan!"
A cold light gleamed in Uchiha Genya's eyes as he slowly stood up.
With his Dual Pupil, he could see Fugaku and Mikoto being killed. Then, Itachi moved to the Second Elder's home and wiped out the entire family.
When Genya saw the chakra of those two small figures fade away, his expression turned ice-cold.
The Second Elder, who had always sided with Konoha, could die, and that would be one thing.
But those two children… What could they have done?
Itachi showed no mercy, even to them.
For Konoha's sake, he went this far?
What a truly cold-blooded man.
Muttering softly, Genya stepped forward.
Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Furin were leading a team stationed at the Police Force.
When Shin, who was nearby, saw Genya walking out with such a heavy expression, his own face grew serious.
"Genya, what's wrong?" Uchiha Shin asked, his voice full of concern. "The Root ninjas outside haven't made a move yet. Where are you planning to go?"
They had been monitoring the movements of the Root ninjas, but seeing the serious expression on Genya's face, Shin felt something was off.
Especially when Genya put on his monkey mask and draped the black cloak over himself.
Shin felt even more uneasy.
"Uncle Shin, the massacre has already begun!" Uchiha Genya's tone grew heavy as he looked towards the Uchiha clan's direction. "Uchiha Itachi just killed his parents and wiped out the Second Elder's family!"
Huh?
Shin was stunned when he heard Genya's words.
His face showed disbelief.
Looking at Genya, he asked in shock, "Genya, did you make a mistake? Uchiha Itachi is one of us, the son of Clan Leader Fugaku. How could he possibly do something like this?"
"How is that impossible?" Genya narrowed his eyes, observing Uchiha Itachi heading toward the Uchiha Police Force Division. He knew that these two were likely planning to eliminate the Jonin of the Uchiha clan first.
This gave him a chance to speak with Uchiha Shin!
Let those with Fugaku suffer a little first, lose a few people, so they could wake up to reality!
Genya calmly continued, "Uncle Shin, I saw it clearly with my own eyes. Especially Itachi's chakra signature. They're heading to the old Police Force Division headquarters, probably to massacre those inside!"
"Bastard!" Hearing Genya's firm statement, Uchiha Shin's anger flared. "How dare Itachi? He is the Uchiha clan's future clan leader! How could he do something like this?"
"Why not?" Genya met Shin's gaze. "Don't forget, he's also a member of the Konoha Anbu!"
Looking at Uchiha Shin, Genya continued, "From now on, when we see Uchiha Itachi, he's our enemy!"
"Understood!" Uchiha Shin nodded solemnly, but the anger on his face didn't fade!
The fact that one of their own clan would turn against their own... was simply despicable!
"Genya... what's going on?" Uchiha Kinya walked into the room from the next. Seeing Genya already in his cloak, his expression turned serious as well.
Today, he had been feeling on edge, and hearing movement from Genya, he hurried over.
Seeing Genya in this state, Kinya couldn't help but worry.
Behind him, Uchiha Fūrin followed. At this moment, Fūrin had already reached the rank of Jonin.
Upon seeing Genya's current appearance, his eyes widened in shock. Could it be that the assassin who had caused such panic in Konoha recently was actually Genya?
How could that be?
How old is yGenya? How could he possess such combat strength?
But everything before him made him believe it was true.
No wonder, the other day, Genya ordered him to monitor the mission board and see which Konoha Sarutobi clan members were accepting missions. It turned out that it was all orchestrated by Genya.
"It's like this. Uchiha Itachi defected to Konoha side. He's leading a group to slaughter our Uchiha clan," Uchiha Shin repeated Genya's words from earlier, his tone growing colder.
"Genya, you plan to stop Itachi and the other person alone?" Uchiha Kinya looked at Genya, feeling uneasy.
Genya nodded. He intended to face these two by himself.
After all, they were very strong.
Uchiha Kinya felt a sense of foreboding as he saw Genya's determination: "Genya, this time, let your Uncle Shin and Fūrin go with you."
Uchiha Kinya was worried. After all, Itachi had unlocked the Mangekyō Sharingan. In a life-and-death battle, he feared Genya might suffer.
"No need… Dad, they're needed here to protect you. I'll go alone!" Genya shook his head.
Both of them were Jonin of the Uchiha clan. Even Uchiha Fūrin, under Uchiha Shin's training, had grown stronger.
"The Police Force Division has three Elite Jonin and ten Jonin. I won't get injured!" Uchiha Kinya spoke with absolute certainty.
His meaning was clear!
If he didn't bring Uchiha Shin and Fūrin along, he wouldn't allow them to go.
"Genya, take us with you. With them at the Merchant Association, there shouldn't be any accidents!" Uchiha Shin also looked at Genya, and Fūrin shared the same sentiment.
Looking at his father and Fūrin's stance, Genya thought for a moment. As long as he could hold off Itachi and the other person, the Police Force Division would be safe.
In the end, he nodded.
"Then, you hold onto my clothes. I have a Flying Thunder God mark next to the Police Force Department headquarters. I'll take you there!" Genya said, then began to sense the space, preparing for a space jump.
Lately, he had been getting better at Flying Thunder God. After many attempts, he could achieve a space jump about once out of every ten tries.
This time, bringing others with him made it a bit more difficult.
Once, twice… still trying, again and again.
Flying Thunder God was always faster than his own running speed.
At the Uchiha Police Force Department Headquarters, Uchiha Itachi stopped with Obito. Itachi took out a mask from his chest and put it on, then walked in directly.
"Heh, interesting!" Obito smiled and followed him in.
However, just as they walked in, a young girl stepped out from a small alley nearby. Her eyes flashed. "Itachi? Why are you wearing a mask to go to the Police Force Department?"
The person was Uchiha Izumi!
