Chapter 192: Eat, I'll Eat, I'll Eat Eat Eat!
The night sky over the Leaf Village was as thick as ink. A blood moon hung high in the sky, casting a strange and icy light, shrouding the Uchiha Clan's grounds in a grim atmosphere.
Itachi was dressed in the black uniform of the Anbu, his clothes rustling in the frigid night wind. He walked alone through the streets of the clan grounds, each step trampling the tranquility of the night, and trampling the future of the Uchiha Clan.
Ahead, several Uchiha clansmen noticed something was wrong and quickly surrounded him, their eyes filled with shock and anger.
"Itachi, what are you doing?" a middle-aged clansman roared, his eyes wide with fury. The kunai in his hand glinted with a cold light.
Itachi didn't stop. His gaze was as cold as a thousand-year-old glacier, devoid of any warmth. "You shouldn't resist. Give up." His voice was low and calm, as if announcing a predetermined fate.
"Resist? We just want to protect our home!" another clansman shouted, charging forward, a kunai aimed straight for Itachi's throat.
Itachi's figure flickered, his speed like that of a ghost. He instantly appeared behind the clansman, the kunai in his hand precisely slicing across the man's neck. Fresh blood gushed out like a fountain.
Itachi looked up, his crimson Sharingan suddenly spinning, releasing a powerful genjutsu.
The surrounding clansmen were instantly pulled into an illusory space where everything was under Itachi's control.
Time seemed to stretch infinitely, and space warped nauseatingly.
In the world of the genjutsu, they suffered endless torture, their bodies sliced by formless forces and their souls struggling in agony.
But in the real world, it was only an instant. The clansmen collapsed one after another, their eyes vacant, all signs of life gone.
Itachi's figure appeared exceptionally lonely under the blood moon. He continued walking deeper into the clan grounds, each step accompanied by a spray of fresh blood.
Meanwhile, in another part of the clan grounds, several Uchiha jonin were locked in a fierce battle with a masked Obito.
"Who in the world are you? Why are you an enemy of our Uchiha Clan!" an experienced jonin demanded, gripping a long sword and pressing toward Obito.
Obito let out a low laugh, the sound muffled by his mask, making it seem particularly bizarre. "The people of the Uchiha Clan cannot escape this fate. Resign yourselves to it. Become sacrifices for the Eye of the Moon Plan!" With that, his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
"Watch out!" the jonin shouted a warning. In almost the same instant, Obito appeared behind another Uchiha clansman, the sharp blade in his hand striking out like a venomous snake. The clansman reacted quickly, dodging to the side. Obito's attack grazed past, tearing his sleeve.
"Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet!" A jonin skilled in fire-style jutsu quickly formed hand seals and spat a massive flaming projectile, which rolled toward Obito with scorching heat.
Obito, however, was unhurried. He activated the power of his eye! His figure disappeared into a vortex.
"Not good, he's going to launch a surprise attack!" Before they could finish speaking, Obito had already appeared above another jonin, stomping down fiercely.
The jonin hurriedly blocked with his arms. The immense impact forced him down onto one knee, creating a shallow crater in the ground.
Several Uchiha saw their chance and rushed at Obito. Obito tilted his body slightly, easily dodging the fatal attacks. Just then, Obito activated his eye's ability again. The surrounding space began to warp, and a powerful suction force pulled several jonin toward the black vortex.
Just as the slaughter by these two was about to turn the streets into a Shura field, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness.
He wore crimson and black clothes and an ice-cold Anbu-style mask.
Judging by his build, it wasn't hard to tell he was Uchiha Ren.
Spreading the plague, cannibalism!
He had waited for this moment for a long time.
On Uchiha Ren's shoulders, two Earth Grudge Fear-like black vascular creatures writhed, as if they had heard the call to a grand feast!
These two monsters seemed to have been lying in wait for a long time. Upon seeing the corpses strewn across the ground, they instantly grew excited, letting out shrill cries as they eagerly burst forth from Uchiha Ren's body.
They shot toward the clansmen's corpses like black lightning, their bodies twisting and squirming. Wherever they passed, the ground seemed to be faintly corroded.
Reaching the corpses, the two monsters instantly opened their enormous maws. Their mouths were filled with sharp, twisted fangs, and they began to devour ravenously.
They gulped them down in large mouthfuls, their throats emitting ghastly swallowing sounds that would make one's hair stand on end.
With every swallow, their bodies swelled slightly. The blood vessels on their skin were clearly visible, pulsing violently with the motion of their feeding.
A bizarre expression of comfort appeared on their faces. Their eyes narrowed to slits, and the corners of their mouths turned up slightly, as if they were savoring the most delicious delicacy in the world! Their tongues constantly licked the fresh blood from the corners of their mouths, and their throats occasionally let out satisfied grunts, achieving a state of ultimate bliss in this bloody feast.
Uchiha Ren turned his head away, not watching the scene directly.
A flicker of complex emotion crossed his eyes, but it quickly returned to cold indifference.
In his view, by not watching, he didn't have to face his inner turmoil, and thus, there was no psychological burden.
Tonight, the fate of the Uchiha Clan was sealed. Even if he hadn't appeared, characters like Danzo Shimura and Obito would still have collected the bodies of the Uchiha clansmen.
Uchiha Ren treated this scene as if he were looting the boxes of other players on a battlefield, which made him feel much more at ease.
In fact, when he thought about how he was snatching the spoils of war from Obito and Danzo Shimura, Uchiha Ren even felt a bit of smug satisfaction!
The thick, bloody stench permeated the air, hanging like a heavy, oppressive gloom that was nearly suffocating.
Those two Earth Grudge Fear monsters were now stuffed until their bellies were round. Their bodies glistened slightly with grease from being sated, and the fresh blood flowing through their vessels was clearly visible, looking as if it might burst through their thin outer skin at any moment.
As the last piece of flesh was swallowed, the two monsters let out satisfied low growls. Then, they slowly moved their bloated bodies and approached Uchiha Ren.
Like well-trained hunting dogs returning to their den, they burrowed back into Uchiha Ren's body without hesitation.
In that instant, a power so immense it was difficult to control erupted within Uchiha Ren's body!
The RC cells latent deep within his body were like a pan of oil doused with water—they instantly came to a boil!
