The Hyuga Affair! Part-3
{The next day...}
I went to straight to Itachi's house yesterday after Kakashi left to explain the situation to Fugaku, him being the head of the clan, he should know about it before got blindsided at the council meeting. After receiving a good job and a proud smile from him, he vanished towards the village proper and I went back home for a good night of sleep.
Now I am standing on the Uchiha lake, molding my chakra while having a spar with Itachi, his eyes blazing with two tomoes as I countered his every move. It was surprisingly easier to do that, I never imagined that in my gambit to gain more SP and EP I had somehow surpassed the Uchiha genius, well at least I can think that considering I was a whole year older than him. I jumped to the side to avoid the fireball coming at me and used one of my swords to block Itachi's katana, somehow it had clicked in Itachi's mind that using a katana with his small body would work but somehow he was making it work.
'He's fast enough and accurate enough with that thing to be a threat to chunin's by now... so Yuki Minazuki really was a prick who was jealous of his own student...'
I vanished in a Shunshin and appeared behind him placing my sword at the back of my neck along the blunt side. He twitched but ultimately stopped as he lowered the Katana, I moved back as I looked at him, he had a conflicted expression on his face, like he was facing an internal turmoil and I knew why...

...
The two screens greeted me, as soon as I woke up in the middle of the night, I sensed someone sneaking around my house before they went away. I stared at the two screens with a blank expression before going back to sleep or at least pretending to have gone back to sleep.
I looked at Itachi with a concerned face, "Are you okay? Itachi, you don't look to be doing good, let's go we should get you back home..." I spoke and he fidgeted on his feet. While I was still thinking about how could Danzo could be involved in the Hyuga affair, he had nothing to gain from it, and Danzo maybe be a twisted little fuck but he wasn't a traitor...
'okay maybe he could have done it,' I thought as my mind flashed back to the theory that fourth Raikage spoke of. About how Danzo could have helped Orochimaru during the Konoha crush for the sole purpose of killing Hiruzen.
"How about another spar, I am thinking of how to utilize shunshin during my fights like Shisui, and sometimes you do..." Itachi was about to continue but I felt several chakra signatures enter my sensing range, I had been actively using it from the moment I woke up, my expression turned serious as I got ready for the finale.
I knew it would be him, there is no way he would have allowed anyone else to go forward with the arrest, I stared at the impassive face of Suzaku Sensei, he had a blank face, I noticed that there were Kakashi and Tenzo with him too along with a squad of ANBU on standby.
"You have quite the party with you Suzaku Sensei!" I spoke as I looked at every one of them, my facial expression stoic, but my eyes suddenly widened as I looked between both him and Itachi with a complicated expression on my face.
'This much should be enough right... I don't know if they would suddenly attack when they have a superior force, and Suzaku Sensei being here they wouldn't want to intrude anyway, to them I am just a genin after all... but still, just in case... Uchiha Skill Tree...'
The familiar skill tree appeared in front of me as I closed my eyes and stumbled back a step or two, trying to continue to act stunned and betrayed, '...Mangekyou Sharingan,' I opened my eyes, my Sharingan spinning as I spoke in a low tone, "Get out of here now Itachi..." my eyes trained on Suzaku Sensei.
"I-" Itachi choked on his words as I turned my gaze to him, his Sharingan was deactivated, his eyes betraying his distress, I looked at him impassively and spoke, "For peace huh..." I looked away from him and towards Sensei, a clone appeared beside me and I felt my chakra reserves drop by half, the clone picked up Itachi, and the various shinobi in front of me tensed as my shadow clone threw him towards the shore, an ANBU immediately shunshined to catch him and check up on him while I continued my staring match with Sensei.
My Sharingan was spinning lazily, I knew what he was going to speak before his mouth even spoke, my Sharingan easily tracking his facial muscles "Fujii Uchiha, you are hereby arrested on charges of treason, you are advised to drop your weapons and surrender." There was no evidence presented, nothing to back it up, just a charge placed and an arrest order issued. Even though Sensei's eyes pleaded for me to surrender, my gaze was focused on the quest that appeared in front of me.
...
[Rare Quest Unlocked: Escape the Pursuit of Hidden leaf]
[Objective: During the fallout of the Hyuga affair, someone had expertly maneuvered everything from the shadows to leaf no choice but to surrender your life in order to stop the next great ninja war.]
[Quest Clear Condition: Escape from the Land of Fire.]
[Hidden Objective 1: ??]
[Hidden Objective 2: ??]
[Rewards: 3x Levels, + {missing-nin} title, - {Konoha Genin} title]
[Hiddem Rewards: ???]
[Penalty: ???]
I put my hand up and clicked on the upgrade button from my Doujutsu page, my eyes started burning slightly as I felt small drops of blood escape from my eyes, and a new screen appeared in front of me.
[Select Mangekyou Ability for your Right Eye:]
[Amaterasu]
[Katoamatsumaki]
[Tsukuyomi]
[Kamui]
[Select Mangekyou Ability for your Left Eye:]
[Amaterasu]
[Katoamatsumaki]
[Tsukuyomi]
[Kamui]
...
I looked through the list for but a moment before picking the most broken ability to exist in the shinobi nations. I selected Kamui for my right eye, just like Obito and while the screen to select the left eye remained a new screen appeared in front of me.
[Ability unlocked: Kamui (Short-range) {Active/Passive}Lvl: 1 (0.01%)]
[Kamui also known as the Authority of the Gods, allows a user to enter and exit a personal dimension linked with your Mangekyou Sharingan, you could enter and exit this dimension at will, as the distance between dimensions is relative you can enter from one place and exit at another place.]
{CP cost: 100 per use}
{Passive}{ Gives access to ability Intangibility}
[Ability unlocked: Intangibility {Active}Lvl: 1 (0.01%)]
[By using the powers of your right eye you can instinctively transfer body parts that otherwise would have been in contact with any overlapping matter into the Kamui dimension.]
{CP cost: 10/s}
...
Seeing that I had gained both the skills necessary to escape, I clicked on [Tsukuyomi] as the second option, ignoring the two new notifications that appeared in front of me I looked at the ANBU who had appeared from their hiding spots, and I sent more chakra into both my eyes as I activated the next stage of the Sharingan.
'Mangekyou Sharingan...'
I thought as the world slowed down a little bit more before it returned to normal. I stared in wonder as I could detect so much that I couldn't before, the predictive ability of my eyes have increased, and so did the chakra cost.
"Very well..." I spoke softly, "I'll see you someday, Goodbye Sensei..." with just thought I activated Kamui, the space around me was destabilized as a portal appeared in front of my eye and I easily went through it and arrived in an empty space.
'huh! so it isn't the Tetris hell I imagined...'
