28 Shisui's Death

Standing in front of a shrine were two men confronting each other with a serious atmosphere brooding as the wind brushed by causing the branches on the tree too shake and left the leaves to fall. There were multiple men in the shadows watching the two men, they each had masks with painting and forms which formed it into a different animal each. They had their hands on their swords ready to move when needed.

"Lord Danzo! What is it?" Shisui asked as he looked at the middle-aged man with bandages covering his left eye.

"Even if you use the Kotoamatsukami, there will still be distrust among the village," Danzo responded with a stern tone.

Danzo stood there with the wind brushing by him while he looked even more intently at Shisui.

"I'm sorry, but I will be taking your Sharingan!" Danzo said as he rushed at Shisui while reaching his hand towards his eyes.

Though, Shisui quickly reacted and activated his Sharingan putting Danzo into a genjutsu.

"Don't worry, it will wear off soon" He muttered while he turned to walk away, but abruptly felt a heavy impact on his stomach as more attacks hit him from multiple areas.

Danzo whom he had put into a genjutsu appeared in front of him in less than a second removing the bandage over his left eye. His left eye was completely white as the result of only one ability of the Sharingan, the Izanagi. Landing a heavy fist on Shisui's stomach, continuing to rain attacks on Shisui's body, Danzo then reached his hand towards Shisui's eye and ripped it out.

Danzo replaced his used eye with Danzo's eye, "Give me your other eye too".

Jumping back Shisui formed multiple hand seals and said "Fire Style! FireBall Jutsu!"

As a huge flame came out of his mouth, the Anbu who were hiding in the shadows appeared behind Danzo and used, "Water Style! Raging Waves!" as multiple jets of water came out of their masks and stopped the fireball that was coming. But, after the steam from the evaporated water cleared out, Shisui was nowhere to be seen.

"Go after him!" Danzo commanded.

Hearing so the Anbu cleared out.

...

Standing near the edge of a cliff, Shisui stood there with his back facing Itachi.

With the wind blowing and blood dripping down where his right eye used to be, Shisui spoke, "I was going to try to stop the coup d'état with my Kotoamatsukami, but it's too late now. Danzo took my right eye." Shisui paused then continued, "He'll probably come after my left eye too, so I want to give it to you before he takes it from me". Shisui reached towards his remaining eye and pulled it out, turning towards Itachi with both of his eyelids for what used to be where his eyes were and he turned and handed his eye to Itachi before finally saying, "Protect this village".

Taking the eye from Shisui, Itachi stayed silent but watched as Shisui slowly stepped backward.

"Wait Shisui!" Itachi exclaimed as Shisui fell off the cliff before what seemed to be an eternity, but also an instant to Itachi, plunged into the river. "Shisui!" Itachi screamed in grief as blood started rolling down from his red eyes, and instead of just having three tomoes, it took the shape of a three-bladedpinwheel.

...

Ren sat in the front courtyard staring at the skies as he heard footsteps outside his residence. Standing up Ren saw Itachi walking in looking incredibly disheveled and down.

"Itachi? What's wrong?" Ren asked concerned with no idea what had happened to Itachi.

"Oh, Ren, you're back from your mission," Itachi said with a gloomy tone.

"What happened Itachi? Tell me, I can help"

"You can't, Shisui is dead! Because of Danzo, because of this damned clan!" Itachi angrily bellowed before walking to his door and shutting the door.

...

After a few minutes had passed by, Ren was standing still. His hands were balled up into fists, as he looked down onto the grown with shock.

"Why?! I trained so hard to prevent the future, to prevent Itachi from going down the path ofbecoming a rogue ninja!" Ren thought as he started to strike the ground.

"Ever since I came to this world, I spent as much time training as I could try to make a difference, but what have I done with all the time I had? Train! Nothing but train, even with training my efforts were for nothing!".

For the first time in Ren's life since coming to the Naruto world, he had felt incredibly aggrieved, he felt his efforts wore futile, he felt he was useless, trash. Even with his knowledge about the world he had, it was all wasted.

Unknowingly, the surge of emotions from feeling useless had caused a change in Ren. His eyes were red and had three dark tomoes surrounding his pupil.
