Naka river, Uchiha clan territory;
Five years after Nine tails attack:

A ninja in his late teens was sitting on the cliff of Naka river and looking with contempt at flowing water. He sighed, 'it's been 7 years already.... just seems like yesterday.' He was wearing a long blue kimono and had no weapons around him but the Konoha Hitai-ate tied to his forehead signified he was a ninja of Konohagakure. The kimono had Uchiha clan symbol embroidered at upper back showing what clan he belonged to. His hair was jet black in colour and spiky reaching down to his neck. His eyes were charcoal black like any other Uchiha.

He waited and waited till it was nearly midnight and finally an ANBU appeared behind him. The ANBU member was wearing traditional ANBU uniform and had black hair. His mask was of the raven and a sword was strapped to his back. "It took you a long time. Itachi-san." The person said.

The ANBU removed his face mask showing his onyx black eyes and black hair. "I had to give details of the last mission to Hokage-sama." Itachi spoke and the person nodded and said, "good for you. Tell me how are the coup preparations going on?" Itachi looked at the back of older Uchiha and answered, "they've ammunition enough to fight a big war and tomorrow Tou-sama will be assign higher ranking Uchiha the places they've to take care of." He nodded and asked, "so am I invited. Or are those just the old coots?" Itachi answered, "actually everyone. Uchiha clan as whole may not hold you in high regard but Tou-sama knows what you're capable of."

The teen looked at Itachi and smiled, "I'm flattered that Uchiha heir holds me in such high regard." Itachi remained silent as the unknown Uchiha continued, "tell me Itachi-san. Where does your loyalty lie?" Itachi didn't flinch and answered, "I will side with my clan. Where my brother is." The Uchiha nodded and said, "I know, tell me will you still side with Uchiha knowing very well that it can turn into a civil war and it won't be long before it turns into the Fourth great Shinobi War." Itachi retorted, "what happens to village is not my concern. What concerns me is safety of my mother and my little brother." The teen questioned him, "you've seen the last war Itachi. Haven't you? Are you sure we'll survive an attack by any other nation? Iwagakure maybe. Kirigakure definitely and Kumogakure? No chance. Just think about it. Iwagakure can demolish us with the help of two Jinchuriki by their side who have full control over their TailedBeasts. Think about it. Uchiha demolish the leaf, take it under their control, next moment Iwa or Kiri is at our necks. Do you think Uchiha would be able to take out another village and then another?"

Itachi answered, "I'm in no position to answer your question. I'll do what my clan asks from me." The Uchiha gave a pleasant smile, "you'll do what clan asks for? Even if it cut shorts the life of Sasuke?"

Itachi didn't speak a word as the teen continued, "you really are eccentric Itachi. You want neither a war to break out neither you want to lose your brother." He left the spot as Itachi gritted his teeth but heard someone from behind, "Itachi...." Itachi looked behind to see his best friend, "Shisui?" Shisui was tensed and spoke up, "Danzo has an invaluable asset in his hands now."

In the Naka Shrine:

The unknown Uchiha entered the sacred Shrine of Uchihas and went to the deepest chamber of the Shrine. He saw the revered tablet handed by The Sage of the Six Paths to his son, Indra. It never made sense to him as to why wasn't it lost by now. In black market it would be worth a fortune but it never went missing. He was least interested in this worthless stone. For some guy living millennial ago he sure knew what was going to happen in this world. 'Sage of the Six Paths.' The man shaped the ninja world and his sons were just the catalysts.
