Naruto, my father's name is Uchiha Madara.

The guard's whistle blared mournfully, plunging the Uchiha clan into chaos.

Women and children were evacuated under the escort of ninjas, and well-trained combat personnel quickly assembled.

When Fugaku rushed out of the clan head's mansion, he was met with an apocalyptic scene:

Naruto in his four-tailed form is wreaking havoc in the center of the clan's territory.

The heat wave generated by the chakra distorted and deformed the air.

Even more frightening, the petite figure was moving towards the shrine.

"Everyone, listen up!" Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan activated instantly. "Form a defensive formation, prioritize protecting women and children!"

Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly.

Because, amidst the burning ruins of the building, a figure wrapped in bandages was coldly observing the disaster.

Meanwhile, Madara, controlling Naruto's body, staged a meticulously planned act of destruction on Uchiha territory.

Naruto, the Four-Tails, charged towards the plaza in front of the shrine, streaking through the air with sparks and lightning.

The four tails spread out and simultaneously slammed towards the Uchiha clan crest.

With a "crack," the century-old stone tablet split in two under the intense heat, and the enormous impact shattered the shrine along its path.

However, this attack deliberately avoided the location of the underground entrance.

However, before the Konoha Police Force could even breathe a sigh of relief, Four-Tails Naruto condensed his chakra into a ball and launched it into the air.

The rain of chakra balls detonated some buildings.

However, the explosions were contained within a ten-meter diameter, and the damaged houses were all places where people had been evacuated.

"Quick! Stop him!"

However, the Konoha police who came to surround and kill the Four-Tails Naruto were unaware of this, and their leader was shouting loudly.

After letting out a roar, Naruto, the Four-Tails, charged forward using both his hands and feet.

It also used its tail to knock down utility poles and create chaos along the way.

Numerous buildings were destroyed along the way, and the main roads were left with a large number of horrific claw marks.

However, Madara's performative destruction greatly displeased Kurama.

The Nine-Tails swished its tail in displeasure: "Hmph, you think you're going to waste my power like this?"

Ban sneered, "You slovenly fox, you'll have plenty of opportunities in the future."

In the corner, Naruto's consciousness looked outside worriedly: "Dad, those people who escaped..."

“Don’t worry,” Ban explained, “I avoided all living people.”

On the other side, when Fugaku followed Danzo's figure to the Nanga Shrine, he witnessed a scene that froze his blood.

Danzo was standing on the roof of the shrine, his right hand maintaining some kind of control spell, and his left hand holding a strange device.

Even more terrifying, the device was emitting waves that resonated with the Nine-Tails' chakra!

"For the future of Konoha, the Uchiha clan must be eliminated."

Danzo's voice was icy and chilling.

Fugaku's kaleidoscope spun wildly: "You're a madman!"

Chapter 17 Fugaku vs. "Danzo"

On the eaves of Nanga Shrine, two figures faced each other in the setting sun.

Fugaku Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan gleamed with a cold light, its gaze fixed intently on "Danzo" before him.

The other person's right eye was wrapped in bandages, and their exposed left eye held an unpleasant contempt.

"How pathetic."

Danzo's voice was as harsh as sandpaper: "The dignified head of the Uchiha clan can't even control a Jinchuriki going berserk."

Fugaku's fingers slowly traced the hilt of his katana: "What exactly did you want to gain by orchestrating this attack?"

During this period, the Uchiha clan had already been suppressed and forced to back down by Danzo on multiple occasions.

But why did Danzo want another Jinchuriki to go berserk? Did he really want the Uchiha clan to be wiped out before he was satisfied?

"Cleanse the cancerous growths in Konoha."

However, just as Fugaku had anticipated, Danzo raised his left hand with a cold smile, revealing a strange device: "The Sharingan of the Uchiha... is still more suited to being embedded in the bodies of truly strong individuals."

"Danzo!!"

Realizing Danzo's purpose, Fugaku felt like he was going to grind his teeth to dust.

The anger in my heart had reached its peak!

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

Fugaku instantly completed the hand seals, and three fire dragons roared as they pounced on the roof.

Danzo calmly formed hand seals, though his movements were slightly odd: "Wood Release: Wood Barrier!"

Suddenly, thick wooden walls grew from the eaves of the shrine, blocking all the fire dragons.

But Fugaku had already anticipated the attack and appeared behind Danzo like a ghost, his katana flashing as he drew it—

The sound of metal clashing pierced the air.

Danzo suddenly had a kunai in his right hand, which he used to firmly block Fugaku's slash.

When the two faced off at close range, Fugaku was shocked to discover that the skin under the bandage on the other's right arm was an eerie grayish-white color.

"These are...interstitial cells?!"

"Good eye."

Danzo sneered, a vein suddenly bulging on his right arm: "Too late!"

A tremendous force emanated from the blade, and Fugaku was forced back several meters.

After calming his numb hands, Fugaku said coldly, "You actually stole the cells of the First Hokage, Danzo, you're a madman!"

Danzo didn't refute, but instead leisurely adjusted his cuffs: "Do you know why the Third Hokage always let the Uchiha go? Because you're like wild beasts in a cage, looking fierce, but actually..."

He made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"Shut up!" Fugaku's kaleidoscope spun wildly. "How dare you desecrate the honor of the Uchiha!"

Danzo scoffed, "Having been oppressed by the village to this state, what glory is there to speak of?"

These words pierced Fugaku's heart like a knife.

Although the Uchiha clan was deliberately suppressed by the Second Hokage, they still enjoyed a high level of power in Konoha in the past.

But now, after Danzo came to power, not only were the Uchiha's rights stripped away, but their base was also shrunk to its current size.

Now that Danzo, that bastard, had spoken out again, Fugaku's anger almost materialized.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!"

Danzo suddenly launched an attack, sending dozens of sharp wind blades hurtling towards him.

Fugaku quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Phoenix Claw Crimson!"

The fireball and the wind blade collided in mid-air, and the shockwave from the explosion shattered the shrine's tiles.

In the smoke and dust, Fugaku's figure suddenly vanished...

"The Instantaneous Movement Technique!"

Almost instantly, Fugaku appeared to Danzo's left.

The katana slashed down, aiming straight for the opponent's throat.

Danzo dodged to the side, only to see the blade suddenly change direction, transforming from a slash to a thrust—

The bandage snapped, revealing the deformed, grayish-white arm.

Fugaku's pupils contracted sharply, and his entire arm was covered with bark-like patterns, with his fingertips even showing signs of woodiness.

"Disgusting..." Fugaku gritted his teeth, "How dare you desecrate the power of the First Hokage!"

Danzo nonchalantly stretched his arms: "Power is power, how can it be considered blasphemous?"

Just then, Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan suddenly trembled: "Genjutsu: Sharingan!"

Danzo's movements froze instantly.

Fugaku seized the opportunity, his katana slicing through a perfect arc—

Fugaku's katana slashed precisely across Danzo's right shoulder, and the grayish-white arm fell to the ground!

Danzo staggered backward, clutching his severed arm.

However, Fugaku discovered that no blood was flowing from the severed arm, as if it were a prosthesis.

However, crimson blood was flowing from the broken part of the arm on the ground, proving that the arm was genuine.

Just then, the sound of whistles signaling the gathering of the secret forces came from afar.

Danzo glared at Fugaku with a sinister look: "You got lucky this time."

The smoke grenade exploded, and the figure vanished instantly.

Although Fugaku managed to catch up in time, Danzo had already vanished without a trace.

With no other option, Fugaku had to give up the pursuit and then bent down to pick up the severed arm.

The pale, gray arm twitched slightly in his hand, as if it were still alive.

“Danzo…” His eyes burned with a cold, furious rage. “This isn’t over.”

When he turned around, he found Itachi standing on the shrine steps, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"Father..."

Fugaku tossed the severed arm to his son: "Give this to the Third Hokage and tell him that the Uchiha need an explanation."

Meanwhile, reinforcements from the Dark Division arrived and Danzo left.
