Running blindly was out of the question. There was no way to escape Konoha's many elite jōnin and Anbu.

Uchiha Kirin estimated that with his current power, taking down a team of three chūnin would be no problem. But if he ran into a tokubetsu jōnin, it would take him significantly more ti. Two of them working together? There was a real chance of failure. And if it were a full jōnin? He'd be completely stalled. As for those stronger than that—there was no hope.

So the only viable strategy was to find a weak point in Konoha's defenses and break through.

"Break out… Break out! But Konoha is the top military intelligence force in the shinobi world. Where would it even have a weak point—especially tonight, of all nights? It's the night of the Uchiha Clan's extermination. Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura will definitely have ordered their Anbu and Root forces to be on full alert!"

Thinking this far, a strange thought flickered through Kirin's mind—just give up and accept death.

But the mont that idea surfaced, a new clarity struck him.

If he were to give up, then he'd do it with flair. After all, there are many paths in life—and every field has its masters!

And when it ca to giving up, Uchiha Shisui was a master in his own right.

After being ambushed by Danzo and losing an eye, his first reaction wasn't to hide in the shadows, using his near-Kage-level strength to beco a ghost that haunted Root, exacting revenge and using violence to keep Danzo's ambitions in check.

Nor did he imdiately inform the clan, gather everyone to devise the best strategy, rely on the power that Root feared to prevent Danzo from making desperate moves, and work together with his clan to prevent further ambushes—slowly, thodically, moving the Uchiha clan out to another village...

No.

His solution?

He handed both his eye and his fate over to Uchiha Itachi, then leapt into the river and killed himself.

And the key point? No one even found Shisui's body.

"So why not give it a try myself? Shisui jumped into a river—I'll jump too!"

If you're going to give up, do it thoroughly!

〖Simulation Start〗

〖5:00 AM〗

You sit quietly in your room, eyes closed, calmly practicing the Bloodline ditation Technique. While developing your bloodline potential, you're also simply waiting for breakfast.

〖6:00 AM〗

Granny Yukina knocks on your door, calling you to breakfast.

After eating, you use "morning training" as an excuse and head out with nothing but a worn-out kunai.

〖7:00 AM〗

You jog to the riverbank, make sure no one is around, then intentionally "slip" and tumble into the water.

Luckily, with your enhanced physical condition as a ninja—and particularly your high Endurance—you take a deep breath and hold it, entering a ditative state to conserve energy as the river carries you downstream.

〖8:00 AM〗

Your body drifts with the current, occasionally bumping against the riverbed or striking subrged rocks. Fortunately, the current isn't strong, and thanks to the self-igniting secret technique you created, this level of pain is nothing to you.

〖9:00 AM〗

Because the Uchiha district is already near the village's edge—and many civilians, fearing rumors, had moved away long ago—no one discovers or pulls you from the water.

You drift all the way to a drainage culvert near the village wall.

However, the culvert is narrow, and your body slams against the stone repeatedly under the pressure of the current, scraping up many wounds.

Ti passes. Even with your abnormal Endurance and the use of ditation to reduce energy consumption, you're finally reaching your limit on how long you can hold your breath.

Just then, a wave pushes you past Konoha's outer wall, into the river that cuts through the forest.

Thanks to your aura-concealing ability, you slip through Konoha's barrier unnoticed.

〖10:00 AM〗

At your limit, you finally break the surface to breathe—only to hear voices nearby.

They've spotted you.

Several figures dive in and drag you out.

As soone begins CPR, you seize the mont to barely open your eyes—and see the sky filled with a dense swarm of tiny bugs.

The leader wears a black cloak and sunglasses—clearly a mber of the Abura clan.

What's worse, the conversation that follows confirms your dread: these people were dispatched by Abura Ryoma to guard the waterway, specifically to prevent illegal crossings. They're Root operatives.

Abura Ryoma—Danzo's right-hand man.

You imdiately abandon any thought of fighting your way out. Instead, like a drowned mutt, you lie weakly on the ground, gasping for air.

〖11:00 AM〗

You pretend to be too waterlogged to speak or interact.

Fortunately, your aura-concealing ability makes it impossible to detect any chakra in your body. Combined with your childlike appearance and Uchiha clan robe, Ryoma weighs the risks and decides to secretly send you to Danzo via the underground passage beneath the Hokage Monunt.

〖12:00 PM〗

On the way there, you briefly consider ambushing and killing a few Root mbers to escape from Konoha's outskirts.

But seeing the faint outline of insect swarms in the sky kills that idea.

Honestly, getting sent to Root might not be the worst outco. You could be turned into Danzo's personal Uchiha pet project. After all, Shisui, Itachi—even the future Sasuke—were all seen by Danzo as ideal tools...

With that in mind, you feign waking up, squirm a bit, then stop resisting and let them drag you into Root's underground base.

〖1:00 PM〗

You're locked in a hidden underground chamber of unknown depth. The walls are etched with layers of sealing formulas.

Aside from so basic drinking water and two rice balls, the only features are a flickering white ceiling light and a hidden surveillance cara tucked away in the corner.

anwhile, having received Ryoma's ssage via the kikaichū, Danzo doesn't even check the footage right away. He imdiately calls Uchiha Itachi for final discussions about the Uchiha clan's extermination.

〖2:00 PM〗

After Itachi leaves—having finalized the plan—he heads off to et his mysterious partner from the Akatsuki.

Danzo, on the other hand, enters an extrely well-hidden chamber. After sealing the door behind him, he performs hand seals to trigger a secret chanism and descends into a second room…

After repeating this process several tis, he finally reaches the innermost chamber.

Once all the security layers are locked down, Danzo exhales deeply, grabs a Hokage hat from the coat rack, and drapes the ceremonial robe over his shoulders.

He pulls out a pipe from a drawer and takes a deep draw, mimicking Hiruzen Sarutobi's usual deanor, then opens the intelligence file on his desk.

"What do you an, they found an Uchiha kid outside the village in a river?!"

Staring at the report, Danzo freezes in place.

Following Abura Ryoma's report, Danzo opens the surveillance feed to review the footage of the chamber where you're held.
