Chapter 287 The Night of Genocide

Time passed by, and Uchiha Itachi looked at the sunset and sunrise outside the window.

Uchiha Itachi thought for a whole night without leaving the study room to give Fugaku an accurate answer. In other words, he already had the answer in his heart.

After breakfast, Uchiha Itachi came to the monitoring room to work.

After watching the surveillance for a day with ease, Uchiha Itachi looked at the root ninja who was performing the surveillance mission with him, and then walked out of the surveillance room.

Soon, the time came when a choice had to be made.

After leaving the Root Base, Uchiha Itachi quickly walked towards the Hokage Building without any hesitation.

In the dark conference room, the Third Hokage had been waiting for a long time.

The Third Hokage, who was sitting on the main seat, looked down at Uchiha Itachi who was kneeling on the ground: "Itachi, I'm glad you can stand with the village, but do you really have no way to stop your father?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded and said in a low voice:

"I can't persuade my father and patriarch who are in madness. They have made up their minds to launch a coup, and the time to launch the coup is tonight."

"tonight?"

The Third Hokage opened his eyes, frowned and said, "It seems like there will be another bloody storm tonight. If your father and the others don't launch a coup, I really don't want to take action against my companions in the village."

"However, fortunately you are here. If you had not reported the news of the coup to me, the village would have had to pay an extremely heavy price to suppress this rebellion. If you were not careful, the entire village might not exist."

Uchiha Itachi raised his head and said to the Third Hokage: "Sir, although I can't stop my tribe from launching a coup, I can do something to stop the coup."

After hearing this, the Third Hokage became interested and signaled Uchiha Itachi to continue.

Dealing with a blood family like Uchiha is not difficult for a ninja village like Konoha. Kirigakure Village in the Country of Water has launched the vigorous Blood Mist Revolution in recent years and launched a purge against the blood family. It was not easy to wipe out the blood step family.

But unlike Kirigakure Village, Konoha did not create conflicts between the blood family and ordinary ninjas.

Before Uchiha actually launched a coup, as the third generation Hokage, he could not mobilize all the ninjas to deal with Uchiha. He could only rely on the roots of ANBU and Danzo.

It would be very difficult for these two departments alone to deal with the Uchiha security forces.

When Shisui was not missing, he was not even sure of taking down Uchiha Shisui. If there were other ways to resolve this rebellion, it would be great.

Under the gaze of the Third Hokage, Uchiha Itachi said: "Sir, Third Generation, tonight I will eliminate all clan members who try to launch a coup and nip this coup in the cradle."

The Third Hokage's eyes widened and he tried to calm down.

What he heard was that Uchiha Itachi's method of preventing the coup was to personally kill all the clan members who participated in the coup. Isn't this method too extreme?

Could it be that what Tobirama-sensei and Danzo usually say is right, Uchiha is really a naturally evil ninja.

Otherwise, why would Uchiha Itachi have such a terrible idea? Or is it that Uchiha Itachi has completely understood the will of fire and wants to sacrifice himself and his family for the village.

But the most important thing is, Uchiha Itachi, you really have the strength to destroy the security forces.

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage showed doubts. This was not because he looked down upon Uchiha Itachi. It was true that Uchiha Itachi was the most talented ninja in Konoha in the past ten years, but that was the entire security force.

Unless Uchiha Itachi also awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan like Shisui.

In other words, just like the rumors, Itachi Uchiha killed Shisui for the sake of the village and strength, and took away Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan.

Itachi Uchiha guessed what the Third Hokage was thinking, and then said: "With my own power, I naturally cannot destroy all Uchiha."

"But recently, a masked man with the ability to control time and space came to me and wanted me to become his subordinate. I agreed to him on the condition that he assist me in destroying Uchiha."

"He is an Uchiha with the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is more than enough to deal with the security forces."

"The Uchiha who controls time and space and possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

The Third Hokage seemed to have thought of something, his face instantly became uncertain, and he said to Uchiha Itachi: "With matching abilities and strength, he couldn't be the murderer who launched the Nine-Tails Rebellion, right?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded: "I also suspect that he is the murderer of the Nine-Tails Rebellion. After I become his subordinate, I will investigate his identity and motives."

At this time, the Third Hokage asked: "Is it possible to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate him?"

Uchiha Itachi shook his head slightly: "I don't know. I currently know too little information about him. I'm afraid it will be difficult to take down the masked man with the help of your power, the Third Generation."

"Then there's no way…"

The Third Hokage sighed softly and said seriously:

"The task of preventing the Uchiha coup this time and the future task of investigating the masked man have been handed over to you. I'm afraid you will have a very hard time in the future. This is all my fault. I failed to negotiate with Fugaku earlier."

"Sandaime-sama, there is no need to blame yourself. This time it was Uchiha's fault. What I did was just to make up for Uchiha's fault."

"After I eliminate the clan members who attempted a coup, I will ask the Third Generation to make me a rebel ninja so that I can better become the masked man's subordinate and investigate the truth behind the scenes."

"My brother Sasuke is also in your care. He is just a child and knows nothing."

The Third Hokage nodded solemnly: "I agree to your request. As long as I am still alive, no one can take action against Sasuke. Uchiha did not launch a coup tonight. It was all because of you who killed the entire clan for power. Uchiha They are all still village ninjas.”

After reaching the deal, Uchiha Itachi left the Hokage Building, he was going to implement the plan to exterminate the clan.

Not long after Uchiha Itachi left, Shisui appeared behind Uchiha Itachi. After taking a deep look at Uchiha Itachi's back, he revealed a strong murderous intention.

Byakuya also looked at Uchiha Itachi's back and said, "Shisui, it seems Itachi has chosen a completely different path from you."

Zhisui took a deep breath and said to Bai Ye beside him:

"Sir Byakuya, I will trouble you tonight. The Root Ninja and I will attack the clan members in advance and move them outside the village, but the security forces will only have to trouble you."

"Uchiha Itachi can deal with the security forces alone. He must have other helpers."

Bai Ye nodded and said expectantly: "I can almost guess who Uchiha Itachi's assistant is. I haven't met him for a long time, and I don't know how much he has grown."
