~~3rd Person POV~~
The office of Hokage is quiet this day for a change. "Done! I can't believe finished that pile of paper work. Now for the preparation..." Tsunade said laying her back to her chair. "Great Job Lady Tsunade" Shizune said.
'I wonder did Ichiro get my message' and all of the sudden the door of her office burst open. "JIRAIYA!" Tsunade yell standing from her chair. "Tsunade we need to talk about that guy" Tsunade then started to have a teary eye "So he manage to stop you"
"Yeah...but that kid's story is unbelievable" "yeah, I can't believe myself too when I found out the truth..he is a fine shinobi" Tsunade said. "I agree but now let's focused on the problem we have....have you done any preparation? "Jiraiya ask
"Yeah...we're almost done" "I see then I will meet them..." Jiraiya said. All of a sudden Kakashi enter the office through the window. "Kakashi, what's the matter" Tsunade ask "Lady Tsunade, oh and Lord Jiraiya" Kakashi bow to the two of them.
"It's about Sasuke and Itachi they" He was interrupted by someone rushing through the door. "Lady Tsunade/Granny!" Naruto and Sakura call. "Lord Jiraiya" Sakura notice Jiraiya "Pervy sage, What are you doing here, wait I'm not here for that"
"Granny, Sasuke...and Itachi just leave the village a while ago. They might be coming to go meet that guy Ichiro" Naruto said. Tsunade and Jiraiya look at each other. "Lady Tsunade please let us follow them" "No, need for that Sakura" "What! Why not?" Naruto yell.
"Naruto, just leave them be. They will be fine" Jiraiya said. Kakashi is contemplating whether he will ask or not. Then a crow fly inside the office to the table of the Hokage. "That crow..." Kakashi said. "Wait, that crow...it's just like..." "Shut up Naruto!!" Tsunade said banging to her desk.
Jiraiya then put the whole room of private seal. 'A private seal' Kakashi, Sakura, and Naruto thought. Jiraiya look at Tsunade who's reading the letter. She then became look sad. "Is it his last letter" "yes, he put his last Intel and a message of goodbye and a request" "He also ask you for a request huh...I bet it's about his brother" "yeah he included this seal, and scroll that may help as in the future" Tsunade said.
"Lady Tsunade...since you letting us hear all of this. It means that you are allowing us to know this" Kakashi said. "Yes! but please keep everything of what you about to hear to yourself, we can't let his hard work to be invane, not until Danzo die"
Jiraiya and Tsunade then tell them the Uchiha massacred that was order by Danzo and the reason he did it, and to protect the village, being a spy for the village and also for other. All of them was shock.
"So, Ichiro did all of that just to protect Sasuke and Itachi and the village, and they didn't even know it" Sakura said "then it's just the reason to follow them and tell them the truth to prevent them to kill their brother" Naruto said. "We can't let you do that, Naruto" Jiraiya said. "Why? They will feel devastated if they found out that they kill their brother who's been protecting them." "You see even we stop them or not, Ichiro will die" the room was filled with silence. "He's been suffering from a chronic illness for years now, he's just enduring it and wait for his brothers to be killed by them. For him it's the only way he can do to pay for the sin he committed and befitting to die in the hands of an Uchiha too...So Naruto, will you still prevent it from happening"
And the room was silence. "So he's the reason of Orochimaru's sealing, the unsual detailed report to every Akatsuki" Kakashi ask "Yes..." "Well that's answered all my question" Kakashi said.
"Well, now you all know some of the truth" Jiraiya said. "Some?" "Kakashi ask "well, there's more to it Kakashi but you will know it soon too so you don't need to know for now" Jiraiya said. And they all left the room leaving Jiraiya and Tsunade.
"Well that goes well" Jiraiya said "Yeah, So are you going now, you said you will meet them" "oh yeah, I will need to help them getting back Sasuke and Itachi to the village. We can't let that mask man get to them first. We still need to fulfill his request after all.
The three brother face each other. Activating their sharingan. The seemingly fighting with each other is just fighting with their genjustsu. It last until Sasuke and Itachi was able to overcome it.
Now fighting in ninjutsu and their jutsu. The two overwhelm Ichiro. 'They really became strong, especially Sasuke even without Orochimaru...but they will kill me faster at this rate. I just need to corner them just once. And exhaust their chakra.
Ichiro, started to aim all of his attacks to Sasuke, to force Itachi to use his Susanoo. "It seems like you master your eyes" "I did it to kill you!" Itachi said. "Don't think that you are the only one who have it"
Then the fight go on. The twin fight with each other with their susanoo. While Sasuke is also attacking Ichiro. The fight goes on until the twin's Susanoo disappear 'I don't have much chakra left' Itachi thought.
Ichiro started to cough some blood. 'No, Not yet... "Sasuke Now!" Itachi yell. The ground start shaking and from below a fire ball shoot towards Ichiro. He barely dodge it. That's why it's still burn him and his cloak.
Sasuke approach Itachi "Big brother!".Then it started to rain. "Finish this Sasuke!" Sasuke then nods. "Ichiro, this is the end. You will die today!" Then a lightning started to conjure from his palm. 'This is my most powerful
ninjutsu'
With the use of lightning from the thunder clouds and his own lightning. Sasuke struck his hand down. "KIRIN!" to finish this fight and finally kill his big brother
It created a large explosion that created a large smoke and dust preventing them to see Ichiro. "Did I do it?...did we finally avenge our clan and family" Sasuke said huffing clearly tired from all the fighting.
When the smoke started to clear. Itachi was the one who see it first. "No!..." the smoke clear further and Sasuke was able to see it too. His eyes widen. "Impossible!..." He said. "I don't think that he still have enough chakra to make a susanoo" Itachi said. They look at their brother who is still breathing and alive.
The two can't do anything but to stand and look at him in utterly disbelief. They've already used all their chakra.
Ichiro then started to walk towards his brothers, slowly and staggering in his every step. His view of his brothers started to become blur.
They try to attack him but its futile with Ichiro's susanoo, it only stop their every attempt with a low chakra. They can't do anything but to look at their brother in horror.
"Is that all you can do!"
'One more time... I just want to hear them... call me brother'
"If you are not going to attack me. Then I just get those eyes! "
'Just... A little longer...more...more time...just enough to see their faces closer'
"Big brother, thanks to you I got the high score in taijitsu"
"Brother, let's have a spar"
"Big brother, help me train"
"Brother! Thank you, I like it"
"Brother, I kinda like the way the two of us look alike"
"Big brother you're the best!"
"Brother...you're the best..."
"Big brother!"
The memories of his brothers flash through in front of his eyes. As he finally able to get closer to them. He raise his hands as he remove the façade he created for his brothers.
"Sasuke... Itachi...I'm sorry" he said as one last time he put his two finger and poke their forehead.
"This is it for me..." he said his last word with the smile wholeheartedly to his beloved brothers as his body started to fall his bloodied fingers slide down to their faces and his body meet the cold floor of the battle field.
Ichiro of the Sharingan had died!
"People's lives don't end when they die. It ends when they lose faith."
-Itachi Uchiha
That's the end of chapter 13.

What do you think? Do you like it?
Did you read the last part with the background sound? If you do then you know what it feels even more! because I did listen to it while writing it. And it hurts my heart while imagining it and by the end of it. I couldn't help myself to have teary eyes.
