41 Two Number 9

Gilgamesh did not expect to take 2 years to fully master the new power he gained from becoming the host of the ten tail, he was no longer a Demigod, he was a god now.

Having absorbed and assimilate the Juubi fully, he was practically Juubi itself. He could transform himself into Juubi form any moment as he wishes.

During these time, quite a lot of things were happening but the most important one was the massacre of the famous Uchiha clan.

Uchiha clan, whose famous for their Dojutsu, Sharingan. Sharingan whos able to read enemy movement and or copy the enemy technique...with just a glance from an Uchiha with

Sharingan active, genjutsu will trap their enemy and thus allowing them to have an easy kill.

All shinobi were taught a lesson to never face an Uchiha one on one if it so, then flee.

The Uchiha clan were feared throughout both in and out of Konoha, such a famous and feared clan...massacered by its own prodigy. This incident weakens Konoha even further

and serve only to make other villages happy.

Hassan had approach Itachi Uchiha as per his master order and made an offer towards the young Uchiha. In exchange for helping to destroy the Uchiha clan, he will join

the Akatsuki. Itachi, seeing no other way out agree to this on the condition that any possible surviving Uchiha member will fall to him and him only to deal with.

Hassan had agreed and carried out the plan with Itachi.

Itachi knew that joining Akatsuki will be the only way for him now when Hassan appeared in front of him suddenly, his entire instinct was not even alerting him at all as if he was not there at all.

it was way dangerous and neigh impossible to do so as he was an ANBU squad leader. Itachi realizes that the enemy that threatens the village is unknown and way too powerful,

there is only one way for him to solve this and that is to become a spy and provide information.

Itachi then went to the 3rd Hokage and beg for him to protect his little brother, Sasuke.

The 3rd Hokage naturally agree to this condition.

For extra precaution, Itachi also warns each of the elders that if Sasuke were to be harm in any way he will become rouge for real and reveal the secret of Konoha towards their enemy.

After everything was prepared, Itachi steeled his already cold heart and proceed....with the plan.

With Hassan and Itachi, the massacre was quick and everything soon boils down to Itachi's family.

Itachi then asks Hassan to meet at the location they agreed upon earlier, stating that he wishes to do it on his own.

Hassan did not say anything but disappear in a pillar of blue flame.

___

'Teleportation technique that is on par with the 4th....indeed the enemy is far too powerful and unknown for Konoha to be able to formulate and combat against this Akatsuki.'

Itachi then walked towards the main branch district...to finish the last family.

"Itachi, what is this meaningless slaughter for."

Itachi then stopped walking and look behind him and said.

"Between the clan future and the village... I choose...the village, and for....sasuke...a better future."

Fugaku then understood his eldest son meaning.

"Sasuke...huh."

Fugaku who was standing behind Itachi then dispelled himself, revealing to a shadow clone.

Itachi then quickly dash towards his home.

Shortly after a while, Itachi reaches his...home one last time and entered, he followed the two chakra signature there were not even trying to hide and arrived at the living room with both his parent back facing him kneeling down.

No matter how heartless and prepared he was, Itachi still could not...force himself.

"Father...Mother."

Her mother then spoke without turning around.

"We know Itachi, we know."

Fugaku then prepares to speak to his son...for one last time.

'....How long has it been since...our family sat down and talk together....it is has been far too long...and far too late...I had failed as a father, in the end... I became the

very person I once hated the most....father. This might be my last act as father..i suppose.'

"Itachi, just promise me one thing. Take care of Sasuke...for us, be the guardian that I had failed to be...and the family that I failed to maintain."

Itachi whos eye had been red from crying agrees to it for it has always been his intention to do so.

"I will...father."

Fugaku decides to speak his mind..for the first time and last towards his son.

"Do not fear Itachi, even if our ideas were different, even if our ways were not the same, know that as a father...I had never been disappointed in you. You are my pride and joy.

You are my son...forgive me Itachi. I had followed in my father footstep subconsciously...I was the same as you Itachi, the only difference is that I had given up on my dream.

You who will walk this path of sadness and guilt, free it from your heart, neither me nor your mother will blame you for this, you had always and will be our...beloved son."

Mikoto then continues with Fugaku's word.

"Just as your father said, Itachi..we had always trusted you and we still do. If you think this is the best way, we shall walk for you, and always remember this Itachi.

We do not blame you...we never did, we are and will always be proud of you...my son.

Itachi...already overcome with sadness gripped his tanto harder and raise it over his head.

"Goodbye...Papa...Mama...i had never stopped loving both of you."

Itachi then swings down his blade...killing both his parent.

Itachi then wipes his tears away and prepare himself for the inevitable.

"NII-SAN NII-SAN WHERE ARE YOU."

a hurried footstep could be heard loudly

"NII-SAN THERE--"

Sasuke who entered the room and saw the dead body of his parents could not speak as his throat was refusing to form voice.

Itachi knew that this had to be done...for the greater good.

"Foolish little brother...who else is in this room...who did you think did all this."

"Nii-san, who did this? How could you let it happen!"

"Foolish little brother.....allow me to show you the truth...TSUKUYOMI."

Itachi then used the unbreakable genjutsu to show the truth towards Sasuke to steel and prepare himself.

After kissing Sasuke forehead for the first time and last...Itachi then teleported away towards the meeting location.

Hassan who had been standing there with his giant sword in the middle simply ask if it was done.

Itachi who couldn't trust his voice right now simply nodded.

A portal then appears in the middle of them and they both entered it.

"Well, you sure fucking took a long time eh? Hassan, this is our new member then I assume?"
