Fugaku Uchiha stared at Naruto's changed face… the Sharingan spinning in his eyes.
"How can you have the Sharingan… even Mangekyō?! Could it be…?"
Naruto smiled slightly.
"That's right. Shisui."
"Impossible! Someone as strong as Shisui… how could he die by your hands?!" Fugaku asked angrily.
Naruto waved his hand casually.
"Of course not. I took them from Danzo."
Naruto then glanced toward the courtyard.
"Your son also has Mangekyō like Shisui. His eyes are just like yours."
Fugaku's heart shook.
He always thought he was the only one with Mangekyō Sharingan.
So now… there are three?
Before Konoha was founded, only Madara and Izuna had Mangekyō.
"Don't be surprised," Naruto said mockingly.
"During the Nine-Tails incident… there was another pair too."
Fugaku's eyes widened.
"You know the man who controlled the Nine-Tails?!"
Naruto looked at him like he was stupid.
"You don't actually believe that clearing the misunderstanding of the Nine-Tails night will make Konoha accept the Uchiha… right?"
Fugaku froze.
Naruto smirked.
"The policy against the Uchiha started with the Second Hokage.
And the Third Hokage… grew up hearing that the Uchiha are evil."
"Tell me… why did the Sannin leave Konoha?
Who destroyed the Land of Whirlpools?"
"You're the clan head… yet you're this blind?"
Naruto leaned forward slightly.
"Do you even remember why your ancestors created the village?
It was to protect the next generation from war."
He pointed to his eyes.
"This Mangekyō… is Konoha's answer to your clan."
Fugaku stared at him.
"So what do you want? Just to tell me this?"
Naruto suddenly changed tone.
"I could have many reasons."
"For example… isn't my identity as the Fourth Hokage's son pathetic?"
"Or as an Uzumaki… shouldn't sealing techniques belong to me?"
He smiled.
"But I'm here for something simple."
"To save some of your unfortunate clan members."
Fugaku's expression changed.
"What do you mean?"
Naruto walked inside calmly and sat down.
"Konoha has already decided to wipe out the Uchiha clan."
He looked at Fugaku with mockery.
"You want a coup… yet you act so openly.
Are you incompetent as a clan head?"
Naruto's eyes narrowed.
"Or maybe… your son matters more than your clan?"
Fugaku's pupils shrank.
Naruto continued calmly:
"You gathered people, held meetings… making everything obvious.
You think the higher-ups don't know?"
"And your son… a double agent."
Fugaku's Mangekyō suddenly spun violently.
He tried to control the Nine-Tails inside Naruto.
His consciousness was dragged into the seal.
In front of him… the huge Nine-Tails roared.
"GET OUT!!"
Fugaku was forced out instantly.
His eyes hurt.
"Impossible…! Mangekyō Sharingan can't control the Nine-Tails?!"
Naruto looked at him with disdain.
"You think you can control the Nine-Tails without Eternal Mangekyō?"
Fugaku froze.
"Eternal… Mangekyō?"
Naruto smiled.
"Looks like you haven't seen the full stone tablet."
He continued calmly:
"Madara could control the Nine-Tails because he had Eternal Mangekyō."
"Normal Mangekyō? That's just a joke."
"Even Obito needed a contract scroll to control it."
Fugaku's face turned darker.
"Who are you…? Why do you know so many Uchiha secrets?!"
Naruto smiled.
"I'm not here to answer that."
He looked directly at Fugaku.
"I want your eyes."
"Both Mangekyō Sharingan."
Fugaku's expression changed instantly.
Naruto continued calmly:
"In exchange… I guarantee the survival of Uchiha women and children."
He paused slightly.
"Including your two sons."
