"We're heading out," Fugaku was quite irate. His flowing black hair swayed as he started walking out while holding his wife. She too appeared to be really upset. Itachi, who was carrying his sibling, felt awful as well and followed his parents. His entire excitement was lost in smoke.

"Please. Can you hear me out for a second?" When Aoto saw the couple was about to open the door, he called out because he hadn't anticipated such a strong reaction for them. Immediately, both Fugaku and Mikoto turned their heads to look at Aoto with menacing eyes.

Eyes that had their Sharingan activated. Both of them used their genjutsu at Aoto to stop him from calling at them and teach him a small lesson.

Ill intentions towards host detected, taking necessary steps...

Both Fugaku and Mikoto felt their genjutsu rebound, and on top of that, blood was trickling from one of Mikoto's eyes and the side of Fugaku's mouth. Fugkau felt like he had been punched in the gut with an extreme force while Mikoto felt like she had seen some the hot sun up close and this made her bleed.

They were both appalled. They quickly realized that when they used their genjutsu, it had no effect on Aoto; instead, it temporarily put them under genjutsu, causing them to lose.

Particularly Fugaku, who was a very strong shinboi in the genjutsu world and had awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan. How could there be someone who was better at genjutsu than him? That too in Konoha.

He looked around right away, convinced that someone was defending him because he had been caught off guard, but he could see no one. He positioned himself between Aoto and his family and gave him the look of someone ready to fight.

Although he was unaware of what was happening, his family came first. Itachi was still holding his brother, who was draped in a cloth around his neck, when he secretly pulled a kunai from his back after noticing the blood from his parents.

When the system alerted him, Aoto was a bit taken aback himself. He was also a little caught off-guard to see how effortlessly the system dispatched one of Konoha's most formidable shinobi. He merely saw the results and wasn't even able to see how the system responded.

"Aoto Yamazaki, you have surprised me." Speaking as he too pulled out a kunai, Fugaku said. Aoto was pulled back to the present by his comments.

"Fugaku-san, I am sorry, but it was you who wanted to attack me." Aoto said and this time his tone from the usual someone who was here to sell to a person who was talking with someone equal. Fugaku's eyes gradually transformed from having one tomoe sharingan to having three tomoe sharingans.

He was prepared to stand his ground and fight for his family. He didn't give a damn about the repercussions, and his family came first.

"System, please render Itachi unconscious and let him forget what he just witnessed." Asked Aoto.

[

Yes, host.

]

In the next moment, Itachi felt his head had become heavy out of nowhere and the scenes around started becoming hazy. His eyelids closed, and before he knew it, he was unconscious. Mikoto held his son before he fell to the ground after noticing the change in him. Naturally, Fugaku saw it as well and hurled the kunai towards Aoto.

"Itachi!!"

"Itachi.. What have your done..?" Fugaku almost let out a shout. His next action was motivated only by rage.

Since genjutsu didn't work, what about shurikenjutsu? One kunai changed into two in midair and moved to strike Aoto in the belly. It was inches before touching the body of Aoto before it stopped and fell down.

Fugaku failed to notice how it came to a stop because it happened so quickly. He couldn't see anything even if he tried. The mechanism was far too advanced for someone like Fugaku to understand. He was once more taken aback when he realized the kunai had no effect.

What was happening?

"Fugaku- san can you please calm down?" When Aoto noticed that Fugaku was prepared to conduct ninjustu, he stated.

"Release Itachi from your genjutsu. I don't know how you were able to stop my kunai, but it won't matter if I burn your whole shop down. "

"Fugaku-san, don't you think your wife would have been able to free him if it had been genjutsu? Could you kindly take a moment to collect yourself and speak? Itachi is alright. He only momentarily lost consciousness. Your situation would become increasingly dangerous the more problems you cause. And the danger wouldn't be coming from me but from Konoha." Added Aoto.

Fugaku tensed up briefly as the last words served as an oblique warning that Konoha had been keeping an eye on him and his clan for some time. Konoha would crack down more firmly on him if he actually caused more problems here.

Even though he was certain that no one was watching him just now, it wouldn't take long to draw their attention.

However, as he turned to face the sleeping Itachi, he almost raised his hand to his mouth in an attempt to set the area on fire. Mikoto put her hand on his shoulder before he made a mouth blow, though. This made him stop and look at her. She signaled for him to settle down by shaking her head.

"We are willing to talk with you with the promise that you will release our child." said Mikoto.

"Sigh! I've already mentioned Itachi is alright, Mikoto-san. He won't remember what just happened when he wakes up after you leave the store." Added Aoto. Mikoto and Fugaku were both astonished at this point. It was understandable—weird, but understandable—to make someone fall into genjutsu and even render him impervious to the effects of outside chakra. But what was wrong with him having the ability to alter memories?

Who was this youngster? He was able to fight off and even defeat the Uchiha clan's genjutsu attack.
