--- Chapter 172 ---
"Can you teach me Shadow Clone Technique?" Yunlong suddenly asked with a smile on his face, which caused Itachi to frown at him.
Uchiha Itachi was slightly confused for a moment because Yunlong should have known about such a jutsu if he was really the Uchiha Clan's member.
"...Fine, I'll teach you the technique, but you should tell me about yourself and how you found out about the elder's plan." Uchiha Itachi calmly responded.
Yunlong casually shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Well, A fair trade then."
Uchiha Itachi slowly moved toward Yunlong and started telling him about a few hand signs. He's also told him about how to mold the chakra perfectly so that he could create a good shadow clone.
Yunlong attentively heard Itachi's words and looked at his demonstration with a curious gaze.
Poof!
Uchiha Itachi created a perfect clone that looks like himself and casually erased after a few seconds.
"I see..." Yunlong nodded his head and did specific hand signs like Itachi, albeit a little slower compared to him.
Poof!
Yunlong felt his spirit energy halved, and a shadow clone appeared in front of him, which firstly showcased his appearance in this life.
A tall young man in his early twenty with short black hair and a handsome face, It was kind of weird to see because it had a resemblance of himself as Yunlong but slightly less attractive.
'I also have black eyes in this world...' Yunlong thought while looking at his clone's eyes.
The clone stood quietly and awkwardly disappeared because Yunlong canceled his Shadow Clone Technique.
"You learn fast..." Uchiha Itachi silently commented, to which Yunlong responded with a chuckle.
"It wasn't a hard technique," Yunlong replied. "Let's see... How did I know about those elder's plans, huh."
Yunlong pondered for a second and told Itachi about a person who had an incredible ability to spy on everyone in this world, who's Zetsu from Akatsuki.
Zetsu told him about Danzo's scheme to erase the Kudeta, but sadly he chose the hard way, which resulted in the Uchiha Clan's massacre.
Uchiha Itachi was immediately gloomy inside because it seemed Danzo had already planned this when Kyuubi's attack several years ago.
"It's just too perfect, right?" Yunlong commented with a sigh.
"The only clan who could control the Kyuubi became the black sheep of the entire incident."
Uchiha Itachi leaned on a tree and thought about this deeply for a moment. "Madara... He's the only clan member who could control Kyuubi." He mumbled with a solemn expression.
'Right, Madara is your target, but sadly it was someone else who controlled Kyuubi back then.' Yunlong thought while thinking about Obito's fight against Minato.
Yunlong stood above the right and stretched his body a little, which caused his bone to rattle quietly.
Clack!
"Uuh... I felt slightly better," Yunlong looked at his left leg, which had swollen slightly before, but has become normal again after he fixed this body.
He looked at Itachi and continued, "Let's go."
Uchiha Itachi nodded slightly and continued their ways toward the Land of Earth, where their target resided.
On their way to the Land of Earth, Yunlong quietly created a shadow clone and instantly teleported it to Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto's location.
--- Unknown Forest ---
Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto opened their eyes and looked around with confused expressions.
"Mikoto, where are we?" Uchiha Fugaku frowned because this place doesn't seem to be Heaven.
"I also didn't know, Dear." Uchiha Mikoto shook her head.
She slowly looked at her clothes and immediately noticed fresh blood, which widened her eyes. "We haven't died yet!"
"Huh..?" Uchiha Fugaku also looked at his clothes, especially on the chest area, and saw fresh blood dripping slowly.
Uchiha Fugaku swiftly tried to sense the area around him and noticed a few small animals moving around, which surprised him because he knows this place.
"We are a few kilometers away from the Leaf Village." Uchiha Fugaku moved his gaze to the north, which is the location of the leaf village.
They abruptly bathed in warm sunlight and looked at the skies, where the dawn slowly disappeared and indicated the morning appeared.
Yunlong's shadow clone abruptly appeared and gracefully landed in front of them like he was a divine entity of some kind.
"W-Who are you?" Uchiha Fugaku asked while looking at Yunlong with a startled expression.
"I am a god," Yunlong answered with a deep voice, which baffled them even more.
"A-Are you really a god." Uchiha Mikoto asked with a slightly alarmed expression.
"Actually, I'm not a god. it's just a joke." Yunlong laughed casually.
"I'm the one who saved you two, though."
"What happened after we died?" Uchiha Fugaku immediately asked with a solemn expression because the situation in the leaf was probably in chaos right now.
"Itachi becomes a criminal, who massacres his entire clan."
"Sasuke becomes the sole surviving member of the clan."
Yunlong casually moved his gaze to Fugaku and commented, "This all happened because the majority of your Uchiha Clan's elders want to overthrow the Hokage and launched a Kudeta."
"Is it worth it? Your innocent clan member died in your oldest son's hands." He continued.
Uchiha Fugaku's face darkened because he knew it wasn't worth it at all, but he couldn't reply or even deny anything Yunlong said to him.
"Uchiha Fugaku. You're a complete failure as a clan head." Yunlong mocked with a cold tone.
"You don't know anything..." Uchiha Fugaku mumbled while clenching his fist tightly.
Uchiha Fugaku raised his gaze and intently looked at Yunlong, only to see him looking at him with eternal mangekyou sharingan.
"M-Mangekyou Sharingan." Uchiha Mikoto covered her mouth in disbelief.
Yunlong stood in front of Fugaku and stared at his eyes like he was staring at his soul. "Hee...? Then, why are there only four Uchiha alive right now?" He asked.
"You're the clan head. You're the leader who should put your clan's safety above stupid things like Kudeta."
"What happened to your clansmen? They are dead."
"Did they deserve it?"
"The stupid ones who blinded by their pride? Yes."
"The innocent one? No."
Uchiha Fugaku became completely quiet after being ridiculed by Yunlong's sharp words, yet this was nothing but a reality for him.
"Was it that hard to think about the real culprit of the Kyuubi's incident?" Yunlong suddenly asked, which caused Fugaku and Mikoto to look at him,
"I want to ask you something, is there any person in the clan who is strong enough to control the tail beast?"
"I... I can control Kyuubi with my mangekyou sharingan." Uchiha Fugaku answered with a dull tone, which lacks confidence.
"Only you?" Yunlong questioned while leaning on a tree.
"Maybe a few of the clan's elders, but they are too weak to maintain the Kyuubi's control." Uchiha Fugaku answered truthfully because, beside him, there are only a few people who have awakened Mangekyou Sharingan.
"When you had a clan gathering, did you ask if any of them tried to control the Kyuubi?" Yunlong once again questioned, to which Fugaku responded with a shake of his head.
"I have interrogated them. We don't have such a person." Uchiha Fugaku gravely replied because he had enough power to open all elder's mouths.
"You forgot one Uchiha, the only person who left the clan and fought the first Hokage." Yunlong indifferently added, which caused Fugaku's eyes to widen.
"Uchiha Madara." Uchiha Fugaku mumbled with an aghast expression.
Yunlong smiled a little because Fugaku finally ate the bait he gave to him. "The next question you wanted to ask, how could that person be alive?" He casually said.
Yunlong told them about a half-fake story about Madara's scheme for dominating the world with tailed beasts' power, which shocked them again.
"We should interrupt Madara's plan, but how..." Uchiha Fugaku frowned because his situation was basically a deceased person who died in his own son's hand.
"The leaf village was out of option for you because Danzo would definitely interrupt you, but what about the other village?" Yunlong suddenly raised his finger.
"The other village?" Uchiha Fugaku pondered with a weird expression because the leaf village had many enemies.
The most friendly village was probably the sands because they weren't really gravely enemies with the leaf, except for a few personal reasons.
"The only viable choice is the mist and the sand." Uchiha Fugaku responded, to which Yunlong responded with a nod.
"Yeah... I want you to give Kazekage this information and investigate a certain place." Yunlong answered with a smile.
"A certain place?" Uchiha Fugaku frowned a little.
Yunlong smiled and replied, "Roran."
