Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

"Aah… Help me. Somebody help. No…"

Aah...

Itachi hears a scream from a nearby house. He frowns and immediately runs in the scream's direction.

Itachi reaches the destination and enters inside a house. He notices blood painted everywhere on the walls of the house. The bodies of the residents are dismembered and their body parts are spread everywhere.

Itachi feels the insides of his stomach churning as he feels an urge to vomit. He had done many dirt deeds in Anbu and assassinated lots of people during this time. But never in his life has he seen such a gruesome way of killing.

Itachi calms down his nerves and holds himself steady to not throw up. He continues to inspect the house and reaches upstairs.

Barf…

Itachi couldn't help but barf when he saw the gruesome state of the girl.

Itachi clutches his kunai tightly and thinks about Izumi.

"Her house is nearby. I can't allow the criminal to attack her."

He immediately jumps out of the window and runs towards Izumi's house.

-----------

Inside Izumi's house,

Izumi is shivering while staring at the killer. The black-cloaked man licks his kunai, which is soaked in blood, and stares at Izumi.

"It's your turn now. I like the carbon content of children more. It is so fresh and pure. That old granny tasted gross."

Dina looks at the dismembered body of an old woman.

Ptui…

He spits out his saliva.

"The appetizer ruined my mood. But the main-course looks more appetizing."

Izumi lifelessly looks at the dead body of her grandma. His mother is out on a mission and she had lost her father during the nine-tails incident.

Izumi was alone in her house together with her grandma.

"No, grandma…"

Sob… sob…

Izumi sobs as she stares at her grandma.

"Why?... why did you kill my grandma?"

Izumi furiously looks at Dina.

"I will kill you. My grandma…"

She draws a kunai and dashes towards Dina. Izumi activates her Sharingan and attacks him. She slashes her kunai at the killer.

Dina licks his tongue.

"Another food on my table. Today is a feast."

He easily parries Izumi's kunai and grabs her arms. He lifts Izumi in the air with one hand and makes a blade of Carbon in another.

"Let me enjoy my food."

He slashes the carbon blade towards Izumi.

Clank…

Another kunai blocks his attack.

"Oh!"

Dina is surprised and turns towards the new-comer. Itachi blocks the attack and saves Izumi.

"Everything would be fine. I am here. Don't worry."

Izumi weakly stares at Itachi's back and nods. Her vision turns blurry. A large amount of chakra riles up in her body and enters into her eyes.

The strain from the chakra causes Izumi to faint. Itachi looks at the dismembered body of the Grandma. Anger clouds his mind, but he doesn't allow it to overpower his senses.

'He is one of the members of Akatsuki. So, that means he is an S-Rank criminal at the least.'

Itachi stares at the red cloud pattern on Dina's cloak. Izuna has already informed about Akatsuki's members.

'His name is not on big brother's list. That means he joined Akatsuki recently.

I have to fight cautiously or else I may lose my life. Then there is Izumi, I have to protect her too. He killed grandma and lots of other clansmen; I have to stop him from slaughtering any more persons.

I have sent a signal to Anbu headquarters. It will take a while for the backup to arrive.'

A large amount of chakra riles up in his body, and it channels towards his eye. Itachi clutches his kunai and makes some hand signs.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu"

Itachi spews out a giant fireball at Dina.

Boom…

The house turns into rubbles from the blast. He grabs Izumi and jumps out from the house.

Kuku….

Dina walks unscathed from the fireball. There is a large black-colored shield in front of him.

"Carbon Control: Black Diamond Shield"

Some smoke is rising from the shield, but there is no scratch on it. He molds the shield into a black solid construct. The solid enters inside his body.

"Human body is made of about 18% carbon. My ability allows me to manipulate the carbon and use it in battle. I can also steal carbon from other people's body.

Now, give your carbon to me."

Dina shapes the black solid into a blade and dash towards Itachi.

Clank…

Itachi blocks the attack with his kunai.

"Is your kunai stronger than a diamond?"

The blade glistens and the kunai snaps in half. Itachi jumps back and avoids the slash.

'He can freely manipulate the carbon in his body. He can shape the carbon within his body into a shield to block any attack or turn it into a weapon for attack. I haven't seen him using the carbon as a projectile. Maybe he isn't capable of that feat.'

Itachi calmly analyses the technique of Dina.

'Normal metal weapons won't have any effect on his weapon. But what about chakra?'

Itachi makes a shadow clone and nods to it. The shadow clone grabs Izumi and runs away from the location.

"Where are you running, my food? Stay here!"

Dina dashes towards the shadow clone.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower jutsu"

Itachi fires numerous fireballs rapidly at Dina.

Tch…

Dina clicks his tongue and makes a giant shield to block the attack.

'I will let you get away for now. First, let me deal with the nuisance."

Chirp… chii… stab…

Itachi appears behind Dina and stabs his body. Dina's eyes widen as he looks at an exhausted Itachi in front of him.

Poof…

Itachi disappears in a puff of smoke.

"Shadow clone! Since when!"

Dina turns towards Itachi, who is behind him.

"That earlier shadow clone was a distraction. I created two shadow clones and used 'Earth Style: Hiding like a Mole' jutsu to sneak around.

You fell for my trap and gave me an opportunity. I took advantage of this."

Blurgh…

Dina throws up a mouthful of blood.

"You got me… Just kidding…"

Dina smirks and turns around. He coats his leg with carbon and kicks Itachi in the guts.

Blurgh…

Itachi throws a mouthful of blood and shoots through multiple buildings.

The black shine on Dina's leg fades and he cracks his neck.

"Haha… I like this feeling of despair. When they think they have won, but in the end, they just fell for my trap."

Blurgh…

Some blood leaks from his wound. Dina looks at the wound,

"But first, let me deal with this injury. The skin around the wound turns a shade of dark black and covers the wound entirely.

I was sure I coated my skin with hardened carbon to block the attack, but this kid's jutsu was able to penetrate my hardened carbon shell.

He made me bleed and puke a mouthful of blood. I have to dismember him bit by bit and return the favor."

Dina wipes the blood from his mouth and stares at Itachi.

"You won't go down this easily, right? I want to torture you more."

Dina makes a blade using 'Carbon Control'. He licks the blade and slowly walked towards Itachi.

"Let me pry open your body and take out all of your carbon."

Swish…

Dina disappears in a blur.

Bam…

He smashes the carbon blade near Itachi's head.

Swish…

Itachi quickly evades the attack and immediately makes some hand signs.

--------------------

Inside Izuna's house.

The cloaked figure enters inside a room and notices a sleeping Aiko. He sneakily walks towards her.

The cloaked man raises a kunai and stabs towards her.

Clank…

Another kunai blocks the attack. The cloaked figure turns around to spot the defender.

"Not so fast."

Akira blocks the kunai of the cloaked figure with his own. Aiko jumps back and makes some hand signs.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu" (A/N:- what can I do? I like this jutsu. :)

Boom…

The jutsu blows the roof, and it throws the cloaked man out of the house.

"My roof. I recently paid the remuneration fee for it. Now I have to repair it again." Aiko complains.

"Aiko, it isn't time for that. There is an enemy at our doorstep. We have to deal with him." Akira reminds Aiko.

"Yes, Izuna's barrier warned us of the intruder. My Izuna is such a genius." Aiko praises Izuna.

Both of them jump out of the house and face the cloaked man.

"Who are you? What's your motive behind this assassination attempt?" Akira frowns and looks at the assassin.

Boom…

They hear a large explosion at one corner of the clan district.

Boom…

Another explosion startles them.

"Looks like our Uchiha clan is under attack. Whoever you are, you won't remain alive after this attempt."

Akira infuses chakra in his bracelet. A long blade appears in his hand. He infuses chakra in the blade and engages the assassin.

Aiko makes some hand signs, and her body vanishes in Sakura petals.
