Just like that, 10 days passed, and it was midday.
Ryuu, Obito, Itachi, and Shisui all met up on the cliff.
They wore their Anbu gear while Ryuu was giving them their assignments.
"Shisui, all you need to do is make sure nobody leaves or comes in.
Itachi, you and Obito handle the North and East Side, I'll handle the south and west side, they'll be the most difficult ones.
Itachi, thanks to your efforts for being a spy, Danzo has given some false orders.
Also, tonight Naruto and Sasuke will return home late. A teacher at the academy will be training with them in shuriken jutsu.
This teacher is a fake, a member of the Foundation.
The table is set.
Now all we have to do is head toward the compound."
"Right!" They all nodded.
As they waited, Ryuu went into Nobu's dimension,
Ryuu approached Nobu in their shared mindscape, his eyes fixed on the giant white flaming eye and the white flames on the ground.
"Alright, let's do this."
A few hours later, when it was dark, they all left together, using flying Raijin to reach the compounds.
They appeared on the rooftops, and all four of them had their Mangekyou Sharingan on as they prepared to strike.
Fwoosh!
Within a second, they all blurred out and flickered.
'Just like I planned, my first target.'
Ryuu threw a poisonous bomb into the house, killing the wife standing in the kitchen.
He teleported into the house and silently slid a door open.
"Who's there?" Inabi shouted, Yashiro's friend.
"Did you know him?"
Ryuu coldly asked as he appeared behind him.
"You…" Inabi knew who was behind him, only one man could move that quickly.
"Did you know my father?"
"Your father? What the hell does he have to do with this?"
"Everything."
Without a second to think more, Ryuu's Katana went through his heart, and his blood gushed out onto the door.
Ryuu flickered away and stabbed the other man on the other side of the hallway.
Tekka Uchiha has an amazing ability to sense chakra. Unfortunately, Ryuu countered that ability by having the ability to erase his chakra.
Ryuu snapped his neck and vanished again.
The next target was a husband and his wife, the kids weren't near the compound, and Ryuu ordered an Anbu to distract them as an undercover teacher.
He killed the wife in an instant, stabbing her with a regular kunai.
Ryuu turned around with a murderous gaze, and then he heard a shriek behind him.
This voice was familiar.
The man fled down the hallway, the sound of his feet almost exaggeratedly loud.
He jumped down into the entryway and ripped open the door.
Ryuu went after him as he came out onto the road. He teleported in front of him, His throat was stiff with fear, and he didn't even scream.
"Even if you scream as loud as you can, no one will hear you.
I've already cleared this area."
The man slipped through a stone gate on the edge of the road.
Beyond it was a park.
Playground equipment was set out on the square site.
He pushed past the swings so desperately; it was almost pitiable; and had made it to the center of the open space when he fell head first.
Ryuu stood a sword-length ahead of him, looking down on the man as he tried to find his feet.
"Give up."
The man's white hair shook at Ryuu's cool words.
"Yashiro. Give up."
"K-killing me won't solve anything, you know. There's another leader. Even Fugaku-dono doesn't know about him.
I was being controlled."
"Shut up!"
"I'll tell you anything.
Just don't kill me!" Yashiro closed his eye and tried to look away.
"Tell me… about my father."
"Your father? What about him? We were old friends, ask Fugaku-dono."
Yashiro stopped himself as soon as he saw Ryuu's face,
The face Ryuu made was detestable, it sickened him to see this pity of a man.
"I already know that!" Ryuu stretched his hand and red flames stretched toward Yashiro's neck.
Yashiro was trembling in absolute fear, Ryuu cringed his face at the smell of something awful from Yashiro's pants.
"What did you do to my father?!"
Ryuu glared at Yashiro, one of his eyes had transformed into slitted irises that were on fire.
"You know what I hate? When someone like you thinks they can just do whatever they want.
You've caused nothing but trouble for our village and our clan. And now, you're going to pay for it."
Ryuu tightened his grip on his neck,
"Make no mistake, I will make an example out of you for anyone else who thinks they can defy us."
He moved closer to his ear and whispered,
"I may be a hybrid of two rival clans, but I am far more Uchiha than you'll ever be.
You're not a true Uchiha, you're just a coward who deserves to be wiped from our history." Ryuu's Sharingan activated as he slowly turned his gaze toward him.
"Now I shape the world into whatever I want it to be. I won't let you see the rise of my great clan."
Yashiro's eyes widened and trembled as he looked back at his eyes,
"I-I-I should have known you would be the one to do this.
You're a pathetic excuse for an Uchiha.
Dating a Senju, raising an Uzumaki.
They bred you for betrayal right from the start!
You're just like your father!
That is why…
I am the one who found Hanzo and that Uzumaki bitch and I told the clan leader.
I gained so much prestige that I even got to influence Fugaku's decisions too.
He was nothing compared to his brother, just like you are nothing compared to a true Uchiha."
A sinister smirk formed on Ryuu's face,
"True Uchiha? You have no idea what a true Uchiha is…
But I'll show you."
Ryuu looked directly into his eyes, one eye transformed into his Mangekyou Sharingan as he made a hand seal,
"Tsukuyomi!"
Ryuu cast Tsukuyomi on him and dropped his body.
Shhh…
Blood that was supposed to pour out of his eyes barely made it to his cheek, turning to ash and fading away into the air.
"Maybe you are right after all.
I'm not an Uchiha, nor am I an Uzumaki.
I…
I am a god, and you aren't even worth a single strand of my hair.
Your blood isn't worth staining my clothes or weapon.
You all judge based on misconceptions.
You don't even know how much I grow bored because I lack a reason to go all out; you don't even know what I'm capable of doing.
No… what we're capable of doing…" A fading image of Nobu appeared in his mind.
Ryuu made a hand sign.
A clone without a face appeared from his body, it was made of darkness, almost like a shadow, and had smoke floating around its body like an aura.
"Kill him." The clone nodded.
It formed two weapons out of ash and smoke…
Shink!
Yashiro's head and his upper body flew up into the sky.
Ryuu continued his mission.
It had been exactly 30 minutes into the mission and they were all done with their tasks.
They met in front of the gates.
Itachi squatted on top of an electrical pole and looked down at the world.
Below him, he could see three other Mangekyou Sharingan looking back at him, on his right was Shisui, and on his left Obito.
In the middle, standing on top of the gates to the last family left in the compound, was Ryuu.
He could see the compound's large front gates from there. Behind them, the moon was full, almost frighteningly large.
"Obito, Shisui, leave now.
Obito, take Shisui to the hideout below my house, Itachi, you and I will go to uncle's House."
Obito took Shisui, and they swirled into Kamui.
Ryuu and Itachi entered Fugaku's house.
"You're finally here, Itachi."
Itachi's eyes widened.
Ryuu hadn't told him his full plan, only what he needed to know.
"Father, you knew…"
"No one will know you were here, you knew nothing about this."
Itachi looked at his father in confusion and asked,
"The leaf will cover this up?"
"I made a deal with Sakumo and Ryuu."
Itachi looked down and wondered.
'What deal is he talking about? Big brother didn't mention any deal.'
Ryuu put his hand on Itachi's shoulder,
"The Uchiha clan will rebuild starting tomorrow."
"Too many have died Ryuu," Fugaku spoke from the other side.
"We sacrificed them so we can rebuild the clan, much greater than it ever was. This is necessary."
Fugaku frowned.
"Your plan better work, otherwise all this is for nothing."
Knowing how serious this was, Ryuu knew not to make a joke of this, so he nodded.
"Itachi, your mission isn't finished yet.
The leafs Anbu, the Hokage, plus Danzo will arrive in ten minutes.
Tell Danzo to back off, do whatever you must, to get him to listen, and even use your Mangekyou if you have to.
Just make sure he knows.
Uncle, you make sure those who didn't want the coup d'état are safe."
"What about the people who have died here, big brother?
If I stay here, the Uchiha clan will never forgive me.
They suspected me from the very start.
I have nowhere to go."
Ryuu held his hand out in a fist,
"Hmph, trust your cousin, Itachi.
I have your back.
Just say one of the council members summoned you and everything will flow smoothly, I promise."
Itachi looked at Ryuu and almost hesitated before giving him a fist bump.
He still didn't know what was going on, but he could only listen to Ryuu.
Itachi flickered away and headed towards the entrance of the compounds.
"Fugaku, Itachi is only 12, why did he have to bear such a burden?" Mikoto asked as tears flowed through her eyes while she embraced Fugaku.
"Mikoto, Itachi is a kind child, he is filled with kindness and love for both his clan and village, he's a smart boy who we must trust."
Fugaku held Mikoto close to comfort her.
Meanwhile, as Itachi reached the gate, he saw his little brother running into the compound, panting, his eyes widened, and his pupils shrunk in fear.
'Sasuke…' Itachi could only say his name in his head.
