Late at night.
Konoha Village was eerily quiet. Everyone was ordered to stay indoors and not go out.
A group of Kumogakure Ninja, led by pairs of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, quietly headed towards the edge of the Village.
That was the temporary station for the Sarutobi Clan, Shimura Clan, Utatane Clan, and Mitokado Clan.
"The moon is so round tonight…"
Uchiha Yuzuru flew in mid-air, muttering as he looked at the moon above.
In the original story, the Uchiha Clan's annihilation also occurred on a full moon night.
Soon, screams of terror broke the night's tranquility.
The members of the Sarutobi Clan, Utatane Clan, Mitokado Clan, and Shimura Clan were already relatively weak, and now they were completely unprepared.
Moreover, Uchiha Yuzuru had cut off their food supply for the past half month.
So, even if he didn't act, the members of these four Clans had no power to resist.
Pfft!
Pfft!
Pfft!
…The sound of blades piercing flesh continuously echoed, and a thick smell of blood permeated the air.
The moon, which had been radiating a pure light, seemed to be covered in a crimson cloak.
After tonight, the Sarutobi Clan, Shimura Clan, Mitokado Clan, and Utatane Clan would completely disappear from the Ninja World.
Time gradually passed, and the screams on the ground became sparse.
Finally, at a certain moment, the night returned to silence.
As Uchiha Yuzuru descended, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Obito, and Uchiha Itachi instantly appeared beside him.
Their clothes were all stained with blood, and their crimson Sharingan glowed eerily in the dark night.
Uchiha Fugaku adjusted his breathing and said in a deep voice, "Yuzuru, as per your orders, not a single member of the four Families was left alive."
"Now… the mission is complete."
Uchiha Yuzuru patted Uchiha Fugaku's shoulder, "You've worked hard. Clean it up before dawn."
Uchiha Fugaku immediately said, "I've already made arrangements in advance."
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded, then looked at Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Shisui, and Uchiha Itachi.
"What do you three think?"
Uchiha Shisui said with a hint of excitement, "It should have been like this long ago. These bastards don't deserve to live in this world."
Uchiha Itachi's expression was calm as he slowly replied, "Only now do I understand Father's painstaking efforts. Keeping these parasites will only bring disaster to the Ninja World."
"After tomorrow, Konoha's Ninja Clan will no longer dare to harbor ulterior motives."
Uchiha Obito said coldly, "Brother Yuzuru, don't worry. They enjoyed the corresponding benefits when Sarutobi Hiruzen and others were in power, so now they should pay the corresponding price."
"Our killing them is justified!"
Under Uchiha Yuzuru's intervention, although Uchiha Obito didn't turn dark, he had experienced despair in the Genjutsu World, so he wouldn't show mercy at this time.
Seeing their normal expressions, Uchiha Yuzuru nodded in satisfaction.
"Very good, you may go."
After everyone left, Uchiha Yuzuru silently sighed.
Ever since Awakening his past life memories, he had been constantly planning for this very moment.
Now, he had finally succeeded in rewriting the trajectory of fate.
The Uchiha Clan regained control of Konoha, and the Sarutobi Clan, Shimura Clan, Mitokado Clan, and Utatane Clan were annihilated… Suddenly, Uchiha Yuzuru felt a sense of emptiness.
However, this feeling came and went quickly.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo were nothing more than clowns; eliminating them was only the first stage.
For him, the real threat was still the Ōtsutsuki Clan.
He needed to acquire enough power to fight against the Ōtsutsuki Clan before their arrival.
"Still need to continuously increase the population."
Uchiha Yuzuru put away his thoughts, and his figure slowly disappeared into the night.

The Sarutobi Clan, Shimura Clan, Mitokado Clan, Utatane Clan… after decades of development, the total population of the four Clans was close to 20,000.
Now that they were all killed overnight, it naturally alerted many people.
The various Clan Chiefs of Konoha, who were originally discussing how to get a share of the pie in the coming days, were now all scared pale.
They suddenly realized—
The Uchiha Yuzuru before them was not a benevolent person, but an Asura who had emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The political maneuvering of the past simply wouldn't work in front of such a person.
The other party was truly a ruthless individual who would annihilate an entire Family at the slightest disagreement!
For a time, the Clan Chiefs of various Ninja Clan in Konoha rushed to Uchiha Yuzuru, constantly pledging their loyalty.
Uchiha Yuzuru did not express his stance, merely telling them to go back and wait for news.
Finally, after several months, Konoha Village had begun to take shape.
Although various facilities were still not perfect, the general plan had been realized.
Under Uchiha Yuzuru's command, Ninja Clan no longer lived together in Family clusters but were mixed and distributed into various newly planned residential areas.
All secret technique scrolls and Family assets of the Ninja Clan were handed over.
With the Sarutobi, Shimura, and other Clans as a precedent, all Ninja Clan could only obediently comply.
As for Konoha's original residents and the common Ninja… they were originally overjoyed, believing that after Uchiha Yuzuru killed Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and others, they would be able to live a prosperous life like the villagers of Kumogakure.
However, to their surprise, Uchiha Yuzuru instead dispatched all of them to serve as free labor for the construction of the Land of Fire.
Eating bland food and working until exhaustion every day… Konoha's populace was filled with regret.
If only they had known, they wouldn't have acted as they did.
If the heavens could give them another chance to start over, they would definitely become loyal lapdogs of the Uchiha Clan!

Hokage Building.
Uchiha Yuzuru sat in the Hokage's seat, quietly looking at the scene outside the window.
With the experience of rebuilding the Land of Lightning, everything in the Land of Fire was steadily progressing in an orderly manner.
Coupled with the wealth plundered from Konoha's various Ninja Clan and the free labor of Konoha's ingrates… it wouldn't be long before the Land of Fire could become a modernized country like the Land of Lightning.
Creak~
The office door was pushed open, and Minato Namikaze walked in quickly.
"Yuzuru, Minato Namikaze wants to see you."
"Let him in."
A moment later, Uchiha Yuzuru looked at Minato Namikaze and smiled, "Minato, how are things now?"
"I am now the ruler of Konoha Village, and everyone has submitted to me. What do you think?"
Minato Namikaze's expression was somewhat complex, but he eventually bowed and saluted, "Lord Yuzuru, Minato Namikaze reporting!"
