Itachi keenly observed the enemies standing in front of him. In front of him was the Sandaime Raikage along with his best soldiers ready to annihilate him and his comrades. But despite that, he was not afraid...these were the people whose foolishness resulted into the death of his beloved brother.

The Heavenly Alliance lead the world into chaos and suffering, they disturbed the peace which his father was trying to establish.

And now it was time to teach them a lesson and discipline them. He owed this to his brother, who died believing in him.

"Itachi, leave the Raikage to me. You go with the Anbu commander and make sure no one interferes in my battle..." ordered Jiraiya,

"As you command, Jiraiya-sama" replied Itachi faithfully, as the Anbu commander and his other comrades stepped forward.

"Dragon, you wanted to prove that Konoha Anbu are still a force to be reckoned with, now is your chance. Prove that you're not inferior to Blacklight and can serve your country..." said Jiraiya confidently,

"We won't let you down..." replied the Dragon masked Anbu commander,

He quickly took out his large sword and pointed it towards the enemy forces, as his soldiers too prepared themselves for the final fight that would determine the faith of their nation.

"SCATTER!"

Hundreds of Konoha ninja charged straight towards the Kumo forces as the entire battlefield started shaking with the enemy army too charging towards them.

Itachi was surprised when the Anbu commander and his special ops soldiers ran clean through the enemy vanguard in a flash. So this was the level of a Anbu special ops soldiers...then how powerful were Blacklight? And how strong was his brother?

However his thoughts were cut short, when several Kumo shinobi fired their shuriken towards him.

In a flash, his sharingan came to life as he too fired several of his own shuriken towards the incoming projectiles.

Again and again the deadly weapons collided with each other, the Kumo shinobi were getting a little frustrated as a single boy was stopping all of them and not even one of their weapons was getting close to him. Itachi either deflected the weapon, or caught it and sent it sailing back towards them.

A few of their comrades were already starting to fall when suddenly Itachi jumped high in the air and unsealed a giant fuma shuriken from his scroll.

"Take this!" yelled Itachi fiercely, and with great speed launched the weapon straight towards the enemy forces.

"Heh, this is nothing boy..." said several Kumo shinobi arrogantly, and easily dodged the weapon but an uneasy feeling emerged in their hearts when the young Namikaze got a wicked smile on his face.

"This is for my brother!"

He quickly pulled the thin ninja wires that he had attached on the giant weapon, and in a flash the sharp weapon came spiraling back while cleanly cutting the heads of several Kumo shinobi in a flash.

Ninja wires were special weapons used by weapon specialists, they were almost invisible to the naked human eye but not for a sharingan wielder...

And today the Kumo forces learned this lesson quite brutally...

"I need to thank Tenten for this...it's quite deadly" thought Itachi, he was quite impressed with the weapon's capabilities.

As he neared towards the ground he saw the remaining kumo ninja ready to take him out, but he was prepared for this and quickly fired a single kunai which pierced a Kunoichi straight in the head. Following the momentum, Itachi perfectly landed on the weapon planted in the woman's head, and as she started collapsing towards the ground the Kumo ninja swiped their weapons towards him.
