On the night of genocide, it would be reasonable to annihilate the Shimura clan.

ANBU.

Itachi, who was feeling complicated about the imminent annihilation of the Uchiha clan, suddenly received news that he was summoned by the top management of Konoha.

"Huh!? The Third Generation-sama and Danzo-sama came to find me together, and the place of summoning was not the Anbu, but the Roots. Is there something you want to report?"

Itachi asked Kaoru next to him.

For some reason, he had a vague premonition!

"have no idea!"

A’s answer was concise and to the point.

"Did anything unusual happen in the village today?"

Ever since Itachi was told that he would carry out the Uchiha genocide plan in a few days, he had been shutting himself in a small room in the ANBU...thinking about whether he should perform a righteous act of annihilation for the sake of the village?

His news has been closed these days.

Coming out at this moment, he also wanted to know if anything big happened in the village these days?

"have no idea!"

Unfortunately, A’s answer was the same as before, and he couldn’t get any news at all.

We can only take one step at a time!

Helpless Itachi followed A and quickly rushed to the root base.

…

"Sandaime-sama, Danzo-sama, I wonder why you two asked me to come here?"

Itachi asked respectfully after saluting the Sandaime and Danzo.

"snort!"

Danzo turned his gaze to one side and did not look directly at Itachi. He was a little unhappy that his name was listed behind the third generation.

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a kind smile and said gently:

"Itachi! You're here. I called you here this time to tell you about Uchiha."

"I have received information from a spy, and Uchiha will stage a coup tomorrow!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was solemn and a little helpless.

"So, in order to prevent Uchiha from being accused of betraying the village, and for the sake of peace and stability in the village, I decided after discussing with Elder Danzo to attack Uchiha tonight!"

After hearing this, Uchiha Itachi said in shock:

"Sandaime-sama, didn't you say that you won't decide to take action until five days later?"

"Alas~"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, with a heartbroken look on his face.

"Your tribe is close to crazy. I don't want things to turn out like this, but... alas! There is really no way!"

"We must take action tonight, otherwise tomorrow, the Uchiha coup will occur, and the entire Konoha will be transformed into a battlefield, and all life will be reduced to ashes!"

"By then, countless innocent people will die because of Uchiha's mistakes. Not only that, other ninja villages will also take advantage of the situation."

"If Konoha is destroyed, Uchiha will be a sinner for the ages!"

Speaking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked sad, showing his true feelings, and there was a faint luster in his eyes, as if he really saw Konoha turned into ruins.

When Danzo next to him saw this, he felt contempt in his heart. Hiruzen was really hypocritical.

Unlike him, he only cares about Konoha!

The third generation didn't care what Danzo thought and continued his performance. He said sadly:

"Itachi! As the heir to the Will of Fire, you definitely don't want that to happen, right!?"

Itachi lowered his head so that no one could see his expression clearly.

After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice:

"I understand! Lord Three Generations. But you agreed to my request before..."

"rest assured!"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

He said sincerely:

"After completing this mission, you will be Konoha's hero."

"I guarantee that your brother Uchiha Sasuke will be absolutely safe if he stays in Konoha! Not only that, if he is talented enough, I will accept him as a disciple, personally teach him ninjutsu, and devote all my efforts to training him into a Excellent Konoha ninja!"

"In the future, if Sasuke's ability is strong enough, it is not impossible to become the Hokage of Konoha!"

In order to get Uchiha Itachi to take action tonight, Sarutobi Hiruzen frantically drew a pie.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, your sincerity must be shown, so that your subordinates will be willing to sacrifice their lives for you.

Unlike Danzo, he doesn't know how to paint a pie, and he doesn't know how to influence his subordinates with his heart. In the end, he can only use the "tongue bane technique" to forcibly control his subordinates.

Uchiha Itachi was silent again for a long time, and then said: "I hope the Third Generation will not break his promise!"

next moment,

open eyes!

Itachi suddenly raised his head, his eyes suddenly turned scarlet.

He activated his Mangekyō Sharingan!

The third generation launched the Uchiha genocide plan in advance, interrupting his back-up preparations.

When he first received the mission of exterminating the Uchiha clan, a mysterious man who called himself Madara Uchiha came to him.

Itachi made a deal with it.

The content of the deal was that after he slaughtered Uchiha, he would join an organization called "Akatsuki" and serve for this organization.

Similarly, in exchange, the mysterious man will help him protect Sasuke secretly, in case the Third Generation or Danzo secretly kills Sasuke!

But now, the third generation suddenly announced that the plan would be launched in advance, which made his prepared backup plan useless.

Because he and the mysterious person have a single line of contact, only the mysterious person can contact him, but he cannot contact the mysterious person.

Therefore, in order to make up for his lack of backup, Itachi could only show his Mangekyo Sharingan as a deterrent!

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have not seen the kaleidoscope in Itachi's eyes, with a face full of vows, waving his chest and promising:

"I guarantee on the honor of the Sarutobi clan that I will absolutely protect the life and safety of Uchiha Sasuke!"

"And you, I hope Lord Danzo can also give me a guarantee!"

Itachi looked at Danzo on the other side.

Danzo stared at Itachi's eyes, and the greed in his one eye almost turned into substance.

Another pair of Mangekyō!

Another pair of Mangekyō!

I must get it!

Danzo roared in his heart.

At this moment, he has transplanted Shisui's Mangekyō, so he knows very well how powerful the Mangekyō Sharingan is!

Shisui's Mangekyō is the strongest illusion, Kotoamatsukami. I wonder what your Mangekyō is, Uchiha Itachi?

At this moment, Danzo still has a faint expectation in his heart.

"Cough!"

The third generation coughed lightly, and Danzo came back to his senses.

"Humph!"

He snorted first, and then said disdainfully: "It's just a kid who didn't even graduate from the ninja school. I have no interest in such a brat!"

"Okay! I believe that the two adults can keep their promises!"

After getting the assurances of the two, Itachi also closed his Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Without further delay, Itachi, get ready and go on the mission! Everything is for Konoha!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked serious.

"Yes! Everything is for Konoha!"

Itachi looked serious and firmed his belief!

What hypocrisy!

Danzo cursed inwardly, but seeing that both of them were looking at him at the moment, he casually said-"Everything is for Konoha!"

...

After Itachi left, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression immediately turned cold, and he said in a low voice:

"Danzo, find a suitable time to kill Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke. The evil bloodline of Uchiha should be completely eliminated in the ninja world!"

"Heh! Hiruzen, you are still as hypocritical as ever! But even if you don't say it, I will find a chance to do it."

For Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyō and the secret of Uchiha Sasuke, these two people must be caught, regardless of life or death!

Danzo added another sentence in his heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Danzo with his peripheral vision. He was so familiar with his old friend.

Once he sticks his butt out, it means he is going to shit!

At this moment, the third generation knew what Danzo was thinking, but he didn't say anything.

Give the other party some motivation to make them work hard in this operation, and then take the fruits of victory after the war.

After all, he, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is the Hokage!
