Author's Note:
Hey guys, I'm sorry if this chapter seems a bit off. My PC just died on me, and I had to completely write and edit on my phone, which was a total pain. I hope you all understand.
Kaito moved to the immobilized elders and Hiruzen. Placing his palm on each one, he reinforced the seals, effectively stealing off their chakra and ensuring they couldn't escape. Koharu glared at Tsunade. "You are tearing this village apart!"
Homura struggled against his bindings. "This is an abuse of power!"
Danzo remained silent as Kaito placed a hand on Danzo's chest, grinning. Danzo leaned forward and said, "Don't think you have won," before he puffed into a cloud of smoke, revealing himself to be a shadow clone.
....
Everyone in the room stared in disbelief as Danzo's form dissipated into a puff of smoke—it was just a shadow clone. He'd been one step ahead of them all along.
Tsunade's eyes narrowed, a fierce scowl spreading across her face. "That old bastard!" she snarled, her fists clenching so tightly that she smashed the table in front of her to pieces. "Lock down the village! He's not getting away on my watch!" she ordered everyone in the room.
Shikaku Nara sighed deeply, rubbing his temples. "Troublesome," he muttered under his breath. Turning to the assembled jonin, he issued quick orders. "Spread out and search every corner of the village. Let's track him down!"
Hiruzen sighed and hung his head, knowing this was his doing—that he'd given Danzo too much leeway.
The jonin nodded in unison before disappearing in body flickers.
Tsunade turned her fiery gaze to Ibiki Morino. "Ibiki, take the old man and the other two into maximum security. I don't want any more surprises."
Ibiki gave a sharp nod. "Understood, Lady Hokage." He motioned for his subordinates to secure the former Hokage and the elders, ensuring they were properly detained as they were escorted out of the room.
"Assign all available ANBU to hunt Danzo down," Tsunade continued, her voice leaving no room for argument. "I want every resource we've got dedicated to finding him." Another squad of ANBU left swiftly after her orders.
Fugaku stepped forward. "Allow the Uchiha clan to help with the search, Lady Hokage," he offered.
Tsunade nodded to him. "Your assistance is appreciated."
Meanwhile, Kaito stood with his eyes closed, extending his Mind's Eye of Kagura throughout the village. He was searching for Danzo's chakra signature, hoping to locate the bastard before he could enact any further schemes. Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, alarm flashing across his features.
"The Uchiha clan is under attack!" he announced urgently.
Before Tsunade or Fugaku could question him, Kaito vanished, teleporting away in an instant. Tsunade's expression hardened. "Damn it!" she cursed. "Follow me!" Without wasting another moment, she dashed out of the Hokage Tower, leaping across rooftops with Fugaku hot on her heels.
Shikaku watched them go, shaking his head. "Troublesome," he sighed again, but wasted no time in coordinating the remaining forces. "All available units, prioritize the Uchiha compound! Assist in defense and evacuation!"

Kaito reappeared atop a tree branch overlooking the compound—the closest Hiraishin marker he had to the Uchiha clan. What he saw made his blood run cold. Plumes of smoke rose from several buildings, and the sounds of battle echoed through the night. Root operatives swarmed the area, engaging in combat with Uchiha shinobi.
He quickly activated his communication seal, channeling chakra into it. "Itachi, Kakashi—the Uchiha clan is under attack by Root! Get here immediately; I need help!" he called out urgently before body flickering toward the clan.
---
Deep within the forest surrounding Konoha, Team Ro, led by Kakashi, was moving swiftly toward one of Root's known bases. Their mission was to capture and round up Root operatives and rescue any children who had been kidnapped by Danzo's organization. Kakashi had been briefed the previous day about the operation, including the overall plan to dismantle Root.
As they leaped from tree to tree, Kakashi and Itachi both felt a familiar tingling at the back of their necks—the activation of Kaito's communication seal. They halted abruptly on a thick branch, causing the rest of the ANBU squad to stop as well.
"Captain, is something wrong?" one of the ANBU members inquired.
Kakashi raised a hand for silence while tapping the seal on his neck. Kaito's urgent message echoed in his mind: "Kakashi, Itachi—the Uchiha clan is under attack by Root! Come quick!"
Itachi's eyes widened in alarm. He turned to Kakashi, concern etched on his face. "We need to get back to the village immediately."
Kakashi didn't hesitate. "Change of plans!" he announced to his team. "The Uchiha clan is under attack by Root operatives. We're heading back to provide support. Move out!"
Without further delay, the squad pivoted and sprinted back toward Konoha, their urgency renewed.
---
Back at the Uchiha compound, Kaito landed atop a building and assessed the situation. He could sense numerous life forces flickering out, innocent lives being extinguished. His eyes narrowed in anger. He made the cross hand sign and called out, "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" creating fifteen identical copies of himself. "Spread out and take down as many Root operatives as you can! Protect the civilians!"
The clones nodded before body flickering in all directions. Kaito himself dashed forward, arriving just in time to intercept a sword strike aimed at a young Uchiha girl. He blocked the blade with his tanto, sparks flying upon impact. Before the Root ANBU could react, Kaito parried his blade and kicked him in the face, sending the operative flying backward. Kaito flickered behind the attacker and slashed vertically, ending him.
He walked over to the girl. "Are you okay?" he asked gently.
The girl nodded shakily. "Thank you, mister!"
Kaito picked her up and body flickered to safety. He reappeared behind a Root ANBU attacking a middle-aged woman, cutting him down swiftly.
He quickly handed the girl over to the woman. "Find somewhere safe to hide," he instructed before darting off to assist others.
All around the compound, Kaito's clones were engaging Root operatives, their coordinated efforts turning the tide of battle. They assisted civilians, guided them to secure locations, and supported the remaining Uchiha chunin and jonin in their defense.
One of Kaito's clones landed beside a wounded Uchiha chunin who was fending off two Root operatives. Kaito slashed down one, distracting the other and allowing the chunin to hit the Root ANBU with a Fireball Jutsu. "We need to hold them off until reinforcements arrive," the shadow clone urged.
The chunin nodded, wiping blood from his brow. "Got it. We'll do our best."
Elsewhere, the real Kaito arrived at a scene where three squads of Root ANBU were attacking a group of civilians. Without hesitation, he hurled multiple kunai and shuriken in all directions. Using his Flying Raijin technique, he teleported between the projectiles, slicing down the Root operatives with lethal efficiency. In mere moments, the immediate threat was eliminated.
An Uchiha police force member approached him, panting heavily. "What's happening? Why are ANBU attacking us? Has the village decided to finish us off?" he demanded, desperation in his voice.
Kaito shook his head quickly. "No! Danzo has been convicted as a traitor. When the Fifth Hokage tried to arrest him, he went rogue. These aren't ANBU under the Hokage. The village is not behind this attack. Fugaku-sama will explain everything later. For now, focus on defending your clansmen and getting them to safety. I'll continue to take down as many Root operatives as I can."
The officer's eyes hardened with resolve. "Understood. Thank you." They parted ways, each heading toward the next skirmish.
As Kaito moved through the compound, he couldn't help but notice the sheer number of enemies. There were close to a thousand Root shinobi assaulting the Uchiha district—a testament to Danzo's hidden resources. Despite the odds, the Uchiha clan was holding their ground.
---
Meanwhile, Tsunade and Fugaku were racing across the rooftops, the wind whipping past them. "We need to get there faster!" Tsunade urged.
Fugaku activated his Sharingan, scanning ahead. "I can see the flames. They're attacking from all sides."
"Curse that Danzo!" Tsunade spat. "He's willing to destroy the entire village to achieve his twisted goals."
---
Back at the compound, one of Kaito's clones encountered a group of Root operatives performing a combined Fireball Jutsu at two injured Uchiha police force members. Kaito made a single hand sign and called out, "Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!" A massive serpent of water gathered from the moisture in the air, colliding against the massive fireball and dousing it before making its way toward the Root operatives.
From behind, another Root shinobi lunged at Kaito's clone, slashing through him—only to reveal it was an afterimage. The clone reappeared behind the operative and slashed through him vertically.
---
Elsewhere, an elderly Uchiha woman and her young grandson were returning home after a lovely outing when they came across a Root ANBU. The woman pushed her grandson behind her as the Root operative lunged forward, slicing at them. But before his blade could make contact, he was cut down.
She looked up to see Itachi standing there. "Bless you, young man," she said gratefully.
Itachi turned to her and nodded. "Please stay inside. Don't come out until someone comes looking for you," he advised before body flickering away.
Kakashi ran through the streets of the Uchiha clan, cutting down Root shinobi as he encountered them. His tanto crackled with lightning as he channeled his lightning chakra into it. Cutting down another Root shinobi, Kakashi looked up to see a squad of Root operatives being engulfed by a massive Fireball Jutsu.
He also watched as a Root shinobi was sent flying by a punch that left him lying in a crater upon impact.
Tsunade and Fugaku landed on top of a building, observing the destruction caused by Danzo.
Just then, a Uchiha jonin landed in front of them. "Fugaku-sama, I'm glad you're here. We need your assistance," he said.
Kakashi landed beside them, making the Uchiha jonin tense and ready to attack, but Fugaku stopped him. "Tagama, he's on our side," Fugaku assured him.
The now-named Tagama relaxed his shoulders a bit.
Looking at Kakashi, Tsunade asked, "Report, Kakashi."
Kakashi nodded. "According to Kaito, the Uchiha clan is being attacked from all sides. He estimates at least a thousand Root operatives. My squad is helping Kaito's clones take them down."
Tagama nodded. "We're being outnumbered. That Uzumaki kid is helping us push them back."
Fugaku turned to Tagama. "Haven't the police force arrived yet?"
Tagama shook his head. "No, we haven't received any backup. They must have been attacked as well."
Tsunade nodded. "Fugaku, take charge and organize the counteroffensive. Kakashi, coordinate the ANBU with Fugaku. Ask all ANBU to remove their masks to help distinguish us from them. Capture some, but don't let any of them escape."
Fugaku, Kakashi, and Tagama nodded. "Understood, Lady Hokage," they said before body flickering away.
Tsunade bit her thumb, drawing blood, and made a few hand signs. "Summoning Jutsu!" she called out, slamming her palm on the ground.
A large puff of smoke appeared and then dissipated, revealing a massive slug. "Lady Tsunade," it said.
"No time to catch up, Katsuyu," Tsunade quickly ordered. "I need you to divide up and help heal the injured civilians and Uchiha clan members."
"Understood," Katsuyu replied before splitting into thousands of little slugs, slithering away to help heal people.
Tsunade sat down cross-legged on the building just as Shikaku arrived with a large squad of ANBU and Hyuga clan members.
Tsunade ordered, "Four of you stand guard over me while I supply Katsuyu with my chakra. The rest of you, spread out and help." They all nodded and body flickered away, while four formed a protective circle around Tsunade as seal markings spread around her.
