Yagami ran towards the village with his fastest speed.
The village was very far from the borders and he had to stop for a while before to rest.
He stopped near a stream as he drank some water
. Yagami was stunned to see the resilience of Izuna as he muttered,"All along the way, this kid only cried once and has been silent since then.
The kid must be hungry but I have no way to feed him.
I have to hurry up to the village and inform Fumiko about this news.
Maybe he fell asleep from exhaustion or perhaps new-born infants tend to sleep more."Yagami gently stroked Izuna's head as he went to the stream. He saw his reflection in the water. Yagami activated his Sharingan and he infused a bit more chakra in his eyes as the tomoes in his eyes changed to a shuriken pattern."So, this is the forbidden power of the Uchiha Clan achieved by the loss of loved ones. I would never wish for this power if it is granted in exchange for the life of your loved one."Yagami muttered as he closed his eyes and stopped infusing Chakra in his eyes. After resting for a while, he began to run towards Konoha.He traveled tirelessly for another six hours and finally, Konoha appeared in his vision. He increased up his speed a notch as he was in a hurry to inform Hokage. He approached the Village but was blocked by two jounin guards.Yagami activated his Sharingan as he forked out a Konoha identity.Upon seeing the Sharingan, the guards nodded and one of them said,"Hurry up! The Hokage is waiting for you to report about the matter."Yagami nodded and hurriedly dashed towards the Hokage monument. He approached the Hokage monument and hurriedly ran towards Hokage's office. One of the guards at the entrance told him,"Hokage-sama had been expecting you."Yagami knocked on the door of Hokage's office."Come in!"A voice came from inside. Yagami twisted the knob of the door as he entered inside the room. A Konoha elder was discussing some matters with the Hokage. Yagami recognized the elder as Danzo Shimura of the root. Root was one of the hidden underground organizations of Konohagakure responsible for gathering intel and Danzo was its head.Danzo was a very known elder of the Village and was the teammate of the Third Hokage and was considered as one of the candidates for the seat of Hokage but he ultimately lost to Hiruzen Sarutobi who is the current Hokage.The third Hokage nodded to Danzo as Danzo slowly walked away while gazing at Yagami.--Izuna suddenly felt a chill run down his spine as felt like he was being stared by a hungry wolf. I was startled and anxiously looked around.A shaggy black-haired middle-aged man with his right eye concealed in bandages was staring at me. He had a cane in his left hand and there was a scary X-marked scar on his chin. He wore a black, hooded trench coat and high- lengthed black ninja sandals. His right arm was bandaged as it was tied with another bandage and hung from his neck.'Fuck! I am scared that's Danzo for fuck's sake. Why he staring at me as I owe him something. I must maintain my distance from him until I got strong enough.'Hmm….Danzo felt some movements from the baby in Yagami's arm and he thought to himself,'I feel like this child is afraid of me.'Danzo looked at himself and nodded, 'I indeed look scary in this appearance. Guess I will go with this outfit for a while then.'Izuna looked at the retreating back of Danzo as gears began to churn in his small brain.'Wait a sec! Danzo visited Hokage just right before the time uncle Yagami came to report intel and left as soon as possible. Also, I overheard Iwa Ninjas talking about a spy, there is definitely a connection.'It didn't take long for Izuna to figure out that his parents had been plotted against by Danzo. Rage consumed Izuna as he began to struggle in Yagami's arms.Yagami was startled by Izuna's sudden tantrum as he tried his best to appease Izuna. Izuna calmed after a while as he vowed to himself,'Danzo the day I get the confidence to kill you will be the day you breathe your last.'Izuna knew Danzo wasn't an easy opponent. Sasuke was able to beat Danzo just out of pure luck as he was holding back to fight against Tobi and was wary of any surprise attack from Tobi. Another factor was that Danzo was old at that time and wasn't able to utilize hashirama's cells skilfully. Although the current Danzo didn't have Shisui's Mangekyo he still had someone else's Sharingan in his right eye. And guessing from the look of his right hand the arm of Shin Uchiha is yet to be transplanted which means Orochimaru had yet to experiment with Hasirama's cells.Yagami began to report the mission's details to Hokage as explained by all of the events including the sacrifice of Akira and Aiko and the possibility of a traitor in Konoha.When Yagami was explaining to the Third Hokage about the mission, Izuna was staring at him curiously.The Hokage had tan-skin and dark brown, spiky hairs and he had a small goatee to boot. The man was wearing a red full-length kimono which was tied using a white sash. The custom Hokage hat and a smoking pipe was placed on the table and he was attentively listening to Yagami'So, he is the incompetent Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.'Izuna had mixed feelings about Hiruzen from his description in anime and manga. Izuna had only one word to describe Third Hokage 'hypocrite'. Yes, a hypocrite. Hiruzen was a hypocrite who appeared to withhold various values, will of fire, and shit! and presented himself as the light to the world but concocted many dark schemes with Danzo and many a time would ignore Danzo's evil plots and even forgive Orochimaru for his crimes because he was there SENSEI!!'If this Hiruzen is the same as described in the manga and anime then he wouldn't hesitate to add another person to his 'need to kill list'. 'Hiruzen sighed when he heard about the possible deaths of Akira and Aiko as he consoled Yagami."Don't worry the village will help to find the bodies of Akira and Aiko. If not then I wouldn't be able to confront my late friend 'Kagami' after my death. You are Kagami's son and uncle of this child, so I will place this child in your care."Yagami nodded tearfully as he departed from Hokage's office. Hiruzen looked at the departing back of Yagami as he picked up his smoking pipe and began to smoke as he muttered,'I hope it was not you Danzo. Teacher Tobirama had already isolated the Uchihas and his actions may lead to unrest among Uchihas. After all who would like to get kicked despite their loyalty.'Hiruzen had a headache as he thought about such matters. He took out a crystal ball from the drawer and began to channel his chakra into the ball. It was his hobby to peek at the new seedlings of the Konoha.He soon spotted a yellow-haired fourteen years old kid in jounin vest training near Hokage. He nodded to himself a fine young seedling indeed. Jiraiya had done a really good job to raise such fine young shinobi. He got a headache as he remembered his disciple Orochimaru.Orochimaru was his candidate in line for the position of next Hokage but Orochimaru somehow was involved with Danzo in various things which made him worry. Shaking his head he continued peeking... Uhun!... observing the young generation of Konoha.
After an hour of peeking, Hiruzen stowed the crystal ball back in the drawer. He signaled nearby Anbus who were guarding him to leave him alone for a while.After confirming that all of the Anbus had left the room, Hiruzen retrieved the scroll left by Yagami. He began to read through the scroll and began to contemplate over the Intel written in it. The activities of Iwagakure had pretty suspicious lately.It has been two years since the Second Ninja war ended. Konoha faced Sunagakure and Amegakure. The majority of war took place in Amegakure led by Hanzo which led to the downfall of Amegakure. Onoki that fence-sitter of Iwagakure joined the war when the majority of the damage was done to both sides. His village reaped the most amount of benefits and managed to consolidate its foundations even more.Although Kumogakure wasn't involved in the second Ninja war, the Third Raikage had been strengthening its military forces for a while. Konoha didn't suffer and terrain or economic damage but the war cost the lives of most of its shinobis. So, they are still in the process of recuperating from their losses. So, this suspicious activity by Iwagakure raised alarms for them as they needed to take precautions in advance. Another war in the next five years may lead to a decline in the power of Konoha.His three students performed spectacularly in the previous war and made names for themselves as 'The Legendary Sannins'. Lately, Orochimaru had been involved with Danzo with some shady experiments he would look into them in the future as his hands were tied to maintain the stability of the Village for now. Also, according to intel from his Anbus tailing Danzo, Danzo seemed to have some dealings with the Hanzo of the Salamander. Hiruzen contemplated over this matter,'Although there are various shady and unclear parts in the intel about their collaboration and I am unclear of Danzo's motives; but I trust Danzo that he won't take any actions against the interest of the Village. Sigh…. I am getting old and I need to find a successor for the Hokage's position.'--After Yagami left the Hokage's office, he hurriedly rushed towards Uchiha compounds. After the appointment of the Second Hokage, the Uchiha clan was assigned the role of Village Military Police Force and thus their clan compounds were pushed to the edge of the village. Although there was some unrest among the clansmen about this matter the clan was still able to flourish.Yagami hurriedly entered the Uchiha compounds and dashed towards his house. After he entered the house he was greeted by his wife Fumiko who had a bulge in her stomach. He hurriedly held and her and passed Izuna to her as he spoke,"Fumiko immediately boil some milk and warm it mildly to feed to the baby."Fumiko was shocked by the action of Yagami but she still did what Yagami said to her. After five minutes, Fumiko walked out of the kitchen with milk in a bottle and began to slowly feed Izuna.Izuna was very hungry from previous events, his body automatically moved when milk was placed in his mouth as he began to suck the nipple of the bottle and drank milk. While drinking milk he stared at Fumiko and started thinking,'So, she is Aunt Fumiko, the mother of Shisui Uchiha. It wasn't clear in anime or manga about any of the parents of Shisui but if my guess is correct they somehow died in war or were secretly disposed of by the Root. Afterall, Shisui was an important piece of Danzo and Danzo tends to gain full control over his subordinates. In this life, I would try my best to protect my loved ones; I will at least save Uncle and aunt even if it means to confront Danzo earlier than necessary.'As Izuna was lost in his thoughts and was drinking the milk, Fumiko was having a questionnaire with Yagami,"So, whose child is this? You went out on a mission with Akira and Aiko three weeks ago. If my memory serves me right you have returned at least a week ago. Also, Akira and Aiko haven't returned yet."Yagami was overwhelmed by her questionnaire was about to respond to her when Fumiko interrupted,"Don't tell he is your illegitimate child Yagami Uchiha. So, this was the reason you returned late from your mission. You cheated on me Yagami, answer me Yagami!"Yagami was about to respond to her but was interrupted again,"When I was tending to your house here in Konoha you went out somewhere to enjoy yourself and even brought a child with you. Yagami you even forgot about over incoming child and left me alone. I am not satisfied with your answer then don't even think about seeing my face again. I will return to my father and complain to him about your debauchery. He is village chief, he will surely take actions against you, and also my younger brother Fugaku is about to succeed him as Village chief. Your days in the village would be numbered."Fumiko threatened Yagami who at this point was sweating buckets of sweat. He hurriedly held Fumiko's hand with one hand and placed his another hand over her mouth as he stopped her from speaking."Stop! Let me explain."He began to narrate the incidents of the mission as tears began to stream down from his eyes while explaining. Fumiko attentively listened to her as her eyes became moist and she started bawling out her eyes.Fumiko cried for a while before she was interrupted by a tug on her clothes.--Izuna was staring at the conversation between Yagami and Fumiko and he was amused by their interactions. The bubbly personality of Fumiko surprised him but what shocked him more was the revelation,'So, in this universe, Fumiko is the elder sister of Fugaku. What the actual fuck! It was never mentioned in anime or manga but maybe it is one of the arrangements of God. Now, I must save Itachi and his family. I don't care about other Uchihas as most of them are way over the head, drunk upon their power and bloodline. Maybe this is the side effect of the bloodline curse. Black Zetsu sure has tempered a lot with Uchiha bloodline. If I am unable to find a cure for the curse then I guess a wipeout of the Uchiha would be necessary or I can kill those stubborn old fools of the Uchiha clan and preserve its heritage. That black zombie plotted and wiped out the entire lineage of Hagoromo Otsutsuki, maybe he had a greater grudge against Hagoromo compared to Hamura. Hyuga clan was able to survive after all.'Feeling tired Izuna pulled the clothes of Fumiko as he wanted to sleep.--Fumiko looked over at Izuna who was tugging her clothes, her motherly instincts kicked in as she was able to sense what Izuna was conveying. She laid him on a small crib nearby. Yagami and Fumiko were expecting their first child, so they had made all the necessary preparation for the welcome of the child.She gently caressed Izuna before she covered Izuna in a blanket. It was the month of September and the cold wind was flowing outside. To prevent the baby from catching a cold she gently wrapped him in the blanket before she returned to Yagami to continue their conversation.Fumiko went to one of the nearby Almirah as she pulled it's drawers and took out some bandages and medicines. She applied the medicines and wrapped bandages around Yagami's wounds as she continued to ask."So, he is their child. Hmm…. Now I noticed it he looks similar to Akira. I am sorry Yagami for accusing you falsely."Yagami gently caressed her bulge as he muttered,"It's alright. I don't want Izuna to feel the absence of his parents. We will take care of him like over child and he will be the elder brother of our Shisui.""Shisui?" Fumiko frowned as she questioned."Yes, Shisui that's the name I thought for your baby boy." Yagami replied."How are you so sure that our child will be a boy?" questioned Fumiko."I have a gut feeling that our new-born child will be a boy. Enough of that list all of the necessary things required to take care of a new-born child, I will immediately buy them. We will pamper Izuna a lot."Fumiko nodded as she began to list out the things necessary for child care."Tomorrow I will go and consult my father more about this matter. Also, I will meet Fugaku, after all, he will soon turn twenty-two and I need to find a suitable girl for him to marry."Knock knock…….knock..."Yagami san!... Yagami san!"Their conversation was interrupted by as an Uchiha clansman in Police uniform knocked on their door. Yagami frowned as he immediately greeted the Police officer and inquired,"What's the matter Kazuma San? You seemed to be in a hurry, what's the matter?""Yagami- san one of the Anbus from Hokage's office came to inform me at the Police station. There seems to be an emergency as your presence is required at the Village Hospital." Kazuma replied.A terrible premonition rose in Yagami's heart as he clutched Kazuma's hand and furiously shook him,"Please elaborate more Kazuma san. What's the matter?""I am not aware of necessary details too, I was only told to inform you about this matter."Kazuma replied as he pulled back his hand as he stared at Yagami in accusation.Ignoring the ugly expression on Kazuma's face, Yagami dashed towards the Village hospital as he jumped on the roof and disappeared.
