The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 16 Three Kaleidoscopes

"Our objective in this battle is to hunt down Root members, not to attack Konoha."

“I, Itachi, and the clan leader will lead the vanguard, and with our Susanoo, we will sweep away all the Root members.”

Apart from the Grand Elder, everyone below looked surprised, and some even started whispering amongst themselves.

Everyone understood what Qianyao said: their clan leader, his son, and the four elders were all experts in the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Fugaku was somewhat surprised that Chiyo was actually a kaleidoscope.

Itachi was equally surprised that Chiyo knew his father also possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan.

However, Qianyao did not offer much explanation.

Instead, he gave a tactical hand signal and headed outside first.

Itachi released Izumi and whispered to her, "Go to the back of the group."

Izumi knew Itachi had important business to attend to, so all she could do was say, "Be careful, Itachi!"

Itachi nodded slightly, then caught up with Chiyo's pace.

The elder stared coldly at Fugaku, who gritted his teeth and caught up with Chiyo.

The elder made a hand gesture, leading over a hundred people to follow behind.

……

The Hokage's office.

Koharu and Homura arrived at the office quickly.

Time was of the essence, and the secret agents had already told them what had happened on the way.

"Hiruzen, why has Itachi sided with the Uchiha?"

Koharu Utatane, being one of their accomplices, also spoke up and asked.

She used to be one of the upper echelons who specialized in playing the villain and brainwashing Itachi.

She had originally thought that even if Itachi couldn't kill most of the Uchiha, he could at least kill some of the higher-ups and cause chaos within the Uchiha clan.

With Danzo's vast Root organization, wiping out the Uchiha clan should have been a piece of cake, but things turned out this way.

The Third Hokage said with a grim face, "This is not the time to talk about this."

"We don't know what the Uchiha clan is planning to do."

Koharu Utatane snorted coldly: "That goes without saying. Itachi's return to the clan and his attack on Danzo are obviously a coup d'état."

The Third Hokage glanced at Homura Mitokado, who hesitated for a moment:

"I doubt the Uchiha would dare to fight."

The Third Hokage tapped his pipe: "I have already dispatched a large number of people to monitor the movements of the Uchiha clan."

"You should all go and organize your own teams."

"I will inform the other ninja clans."

Mitokado Yan and Utatane Koharu had no choice but to go down and organize the manpower.

The Third Hokage instructed the Anbu members:

"Send a message to Jiraiya immediately and tell him to come back right away!"

"Yes!" The hidden forces below immediately disappeared.

The Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette, secretly wondering if he could get through today.

……

Outside the Uchiha clan's territory.

"Boom!"

"What's this!?"

"what!"

"Get out!"

Three Susanoos, one orange-red, one black, and one purplish-black, led the charge.

Only a few people have seen the root of Susanoo, which is said to be stagnant.

No one else has ever seen a bulldozer like this before; it's impervious to knives and ninjutsu.

Even Susanoo in its bone armor form would be smashed into a pulp after taking a single punch.

His body was so mangled that even his mother wouldn't recognize him.

This is such an awesome thing.

There are three!

The Root organization, which was already without a leader, collapsed at the slightest touch and retreated frantically towards Konoha.

In reality, Chiyo and his two companions killed more than a dozen people using Susanoo.

But the scene was too shocking.

The Uchiha clan members behind them roared and charged towards the Root clan with overwhelming momentum.

Although there were seventy or eighty members of Root, they had no power to resist the onslaught of more than one hundred Uchiha.

They fled while dumping corpses along the way.

Fugaku had long ago awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, but he had almost never used it in public over the years.

This was the first time he had ever experienced such an exhilarating battle. Seeing his clansmen with such overwhelming momentum stirred up Fugaku's long-dormant heart.

We have three Mangekyou Sharingan eyes, don't we...?

Chiyo's eyes were calm; he wasn't as impulsive as Fugaku.

This one-sided scenario was already part of his plan.

Use Susanoo as the vanguard to dampen the enemy's morale, boost your own morale, and take down some clueless Root members.

They wouldn't dare call themselves Uchiha clan members if they didn't fight like this.

Moreover, he had no intention of directly turning against Konoha.

Although Itachi was also following his orders to use Susanoo to pursue the Root members.

However, deep down, Itachi was still unwilling to go to war with Konoha.

He was on the side of his people, but he didn't want to massacre civilians or start a war.

The two sides chased and fled, and after leaving behind more than forty corpses, Root finally spotted the members of the Third Hokage's organization.

Qianyao raised both hands, signaling to stop the pursuit.

Fugaku and Itachi also stopped beside him.

The tribesmen behind them gradually stopped, most of them with bloodshot faces and murderous intent.

For the more than one hundred Uchiha combatants, seventy or eighty Root members were simply not enough for them to kill.

They wanted to fight, to kill more!

The fighting spirit on everyone's faces was so obvious that it caused a stir in Konoha.

The Grand Elder arrived in front of the group and gestured for them to stop.

The tribespeople calmed down, and many of them took the time to recover their strength.

However, all the clansmen who had awakened their Sharingan had not closed them; their bright red Sharingan were fixed on Konoha.

"Senior Chiyo?" Itachi asked Chiyo.

Qianyao turned his head and saw the hesitation and worry in Itachi's eyes.

He patted Itachi on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I didn't lie to you."

The weasel felt a slight sense of relief.

Chiyo glanced at Fugaku, who seemed to be getting restless.

"Elder, come here for a moment."

Upon hearing Qianyao's summons, the Grand Elder strode forward with imposing steps.

Qianyao lowered his voice and said to Itachi and the Grand Elder, "You'll need to say this in a moment..."

"Elder, you're cooperating like this..."

He laid out his plan to everyone, and the Grand Elder listened with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Fugaku frowned and asked, "Chiyo, doesn't this give Konoha more time to prepare?"

Qian Yao shook his head slightly: "My mind is perfectly clear, but I'll tell you about the follow-up plans later."

Fugaku wanted to say something, but when he turned around and saw the elder's stern gaze, he immediately fell silent.

Tonight, Qianyao is in command; he has to do whatever Qianyao tells him to do.

Sasuke's life is still in the hands of the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder readily agreed, saying, "I'll listen to you, Qianyao."

The Uchiha clan's territory had long been moved to the outermost part of Konoha.

They are currently a street away from the people of Konoha.

Although he didn't understand why the Uchiha clan had stopped, the Third Hokage was happy to stall for a little longer.

We need to wait for the elites from all the other ninja clans to arrive.

The Uchiha clan's fighting strength is terrifying. If they don't drag more people down with them, the direct descendants of the third generation will suffer heavy losses.

In particular, the Root members who had just escaped brought new information.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

There were three Uchiha.

Itachi, Fugaku, and Chiyo are all three!
