Kaito Uchiha sighed deeply, his gaze fixed on the horizon as the sun dipped below the treeline. Fifteen years had passed since he found himself in the world of Naruto. Fifteen years of struggle, growth, and uncertainty.

"If only I had the golden fingers every traverser seems to get," he muttered to himself, his voice tinged with frustration.

Time had flown by in a blur. One moment, he was a university student preparing for a lecture; the next, he woke up as a baby in the Uchiha clan. His parents had died during the Third Shinobi World War, sacrificing themselves to protect their comrades. The clansmen they saved took him in, raising him until he proved his worth at the Ninja Academy. Now, at fifteen, he stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Itachi Uchiha, the clan patriarch's son, as one of the clan's most promising geniuses.

As he lay on the grassy hills of the Third Training Ground, the weight of his thoughts pressed heavily on him. The Uchiha clan's future was uncertain, and he couldn't shake the feeling that something terrible was on the horizon.

Suddenly, a sharp "DING!" echoed in his mind. A translucent panel materialized before him, displaying a flood of information. Kaito's eyes widened as he read the words.

[System Activated!]

Host Kekkei Genkai has reached a bottleneck!

Host's Jonin-level chakra has reached a bottleneck and has been upgraded to Kage rank!

2)Take refuge in Konoha and cooperate with the higher-ups to destroy the Uchiha clan.

Reward: Sage Body.

3)Lead the clan to resist and confront Konoha's higher-ups.

Reward: Perfect Sage Body.

Kaito's heart raced as he processed the options. There was no hesitation in his voice as he declared, "I choose the third option."

[DING! Host's commands have been confirmed.]

[DING! Host's talents have been upgraded.]

[DING! The system's sole purpose is to assist the host in reaching full power.]

Before Kaito could fully grasp the changes, another notification flashed before him.

[DING! Host's Kekkei Genkai has been upgraded. Three Tomoe Sharingan has evolved into Mangekyo Sharingan.]

A surge of power coursed through his body, his chakra stabilizing at the Kage rank. His vision sharpened, and he felt the immense power of the Mangekyo Sharingan awaken within him.

"So this is the power that decides the fate of cannon fodder," Kaito murmured, a mix of awe and pride swelling in his chest. "This is the strength to rule over the shinobi world."

At just fifteen, he had achieved what few could dream of. But his triumph was short-lived. The system's warning about the impending genocide of the Uchiha clan loomed over him like a dark cloud.

"System, show me my stats," Kaito commanded.

[DING! Affirmed, Host.]

Kaito's lips curled into a determined smile. "Now I have the power to protect my clan. But…" His expression darkened as he checked the time. "It's almost six hours before the massacre begins."

Brushing off the grass and leaves from his clothes, Kaito activated the Body Flicker Technique and vanished from the training ground, heading straight for the Uchiha compound.

Meanwhile, in the Shadows…

In a dimly lit room, a man sat on a throne-like chair, his face obscured by darkness. Before him, a ninja knelt, head bowed in reverence.

"Have you arrived?" the man asked, his voice cold and commanding.

"Yes, Milord," the ninja replied.

"Good. The time has come to set our plan into motion," the man said, his tone dripping with malice. "Konoha will never see it coming."

The ninja nodded. "Understood, Milord. All preparations are complete."

The man leaned forward, his eyes glinting with a dangerous light. "Soon, the balance of power will shift. And the Uchiha will be nothing more than a memory."

Back at the Uchiha Compound…

Kaito arrived at the compound, his heart pounding with urgency. The familiar faces of his clansmen greeted him, oblivious to the impending doom.

"Everyone, gather around!" Kaito called out, his voice cutting through the evening air.

The Uchiha clan members exchanged curious glances but obeyed, forming a circle around him.

"Tonight," Kaito began, his voice steady but filled with gravity, "Konoha plans to annihilate us. But we will not go down without a fight. We have the strength, the skills, and the will to protect our clan."

Gasps and murmurs of disbelief rippled through the crowd. One voice rose above the rest. "But how can we resist? They outnumber us, and they have the element of surprise!"

Kaito's Mangekyo Sharingan flared to life, its crimson pattern spinning ominously. "I have a plan. With your trust and cooperation, we can turn the tide. Tonight, we fight for our survival, our pride, and our future."

The resolve in his voice was infectious. Slowly, the Uchiha clan members nodded, their expressions hardening with determination.

As the final preparations were made, Kaito glanced at the sky. The night was eerily calm as if the world itself was holding its breath.

"This is it," he thought. "The night the Uchiha's true strength will be revealed."

With his newfound power and the unity of his clan, Kaito knew they had a fighting chance. And when the first light of dawn broke, the outcome of this fateful night would be etched into history.
