"I believe I am seeing the memories of the 9 tails foxes. He had been controlled by Madara Uchiha at one point. So everything he saw and knows is coming to me."
Fugak's eyes narrowed from that statement. How does he know he's the Jinchuriki? Fugaku thought
"I never heard of a Jinchuriki gaining the memories of the tailed beasts." Fugaku said.
"That's not surprising Lord Fugaku." Mena said. "Most people think the tailed beasts are mindless creatures. But that simply isn't true. The sage of six paths talked to all of them and they talked back to him. He even gave them names."
"The sage of six paths? But he is just a legend" Shisui said.
Menma shook his head. "No he wasn't. The Uchiha and the Hyuga clans are the direct descendants of the sage that awakened the Kekkei Genkai of his children."
Fugaku and Itachi stared at Menma with intense eyes.
"Menma how do you know this, and what are you trying to say by sharing this with us?" Itachi asked.
Menma knew now the three were listening very closely to his next word, especially Fugaku and Itachi.
"What I am saying is you need to arrest and out Danzo. His plans for the Uchiha is a betrayal to the hidden leaf. You also need to arrest the village elders for their involvement and willingness to go along with his plans. That or get them to step down from their seats of power."
"Menma you don't know what you speak about. " Fugaku said. "You have these dreams okay, but to say overthrow and arrest the leader of the Anbu, and elders will get the Uchiha in a worse situation then they are already in."
"No it wont Lord Fugaku. Itachi has been telling the village elders about the Uchiha's plans to use me to start a coup. Which is what Danzo want's."
Shisui and Fugaku looked at Itachi in shock. "Itachi? Why would you do that," Shuisi asked .
"You gave the elders the reason they needed to kill the clan Itachi" Fugaku said.
Itachi didn't bow and beg, he simply just stood their. "I wanted to stop the bloodshed and violence."
Then shisui grabbed Itachi. "Your gonna stop alright you idiot. If every Uchiha is dead then their will be no civil war or coup. Just your fellow clansman and family dead. Did you really not think this though" Shisui said angridly.
"Please don't be to harsh on Itachi." Menma said.
That made the three older men look at him in surprise.
"Itachi hates violence, and will do anything to stop it. He is a product of this cruel world of ninja. But if you help me and do what I say, I believe I can create a better world without needless bloodshed or war."
"Menma what does a three year old know about war. You haven't even entered the Academy or become a shinobi yet?" Fugaku asked.
"Your right Lord Fugaku, I haven't done any of those things and I am very young. But I am also the 9 tails Jinchuriki. I am a unwilling tool for war. I am a Uzumaki as well. My clan was so feared every village joined together to wipe us out."
"I haven't experienced war but I am a result of it, just like the rest of you."
That made the three pause in a realization of my words.
"Itachi can I have some paper and a some ink." I asked.
"What for?" Itachi asked.
"I am gonna give you information that can give to the Hokage to summon Lord Jiraiya."
Fugaku eyes widen in surprise. "Lord Jiraya? Menma you cannot joke about things like this."
"I am not joking my lord, I am very serious. The information I am gonna write do is very important and will help you bring down the village elders, and save the Uchiha clan. It will also end your reason for a coup and put the Uchiha clan in a better light."
Menma then received a notebook, and pen from Itachi. Then like seasoned writer, Menma's hands began to move smoothly across the pages. Menma used his knowledge from his past life to speak on the Akatsuki, a group of rouge ninjas. He talked about who their current members were from his memories. From their identities and current goals.
Menma mentioned the rings they wore and how they were essential tools. The rings served as membership identifiers, and helped synchronize members during sealing rituals for Tailed Beasts, and indicated their specific positions on the Gedo statue.
Menma kept Madara's name as the true leader of the organization a secret. He gave Nagato's name as the pseudo leader, while the real one was hidden. He gave all abilities the current members. He made sure to keep Obito names hidden as well.
Then Menma gave obscure information about Orochimaru to get the third Hokage to take the bait. Menma new by now the snake Sanin hasrn't discovered the Sound village yet, but he gave some information on what the curse seals do, and some of his known supporters, but he left Kabuto's name out.
Then after the ink dried Mena gave the book to Fugaku to read. Within seconds of reading Fugaku eyes widened in horror. "This can't be...?"
Fugaku's eyes looked towards the stoic face Menma had.
"How is it that you know these things?"
Menam calm expression didn't change. " I told you lord Fugaku. These are from my prophetic dreams and some share knowledge I received from the 9 tails.
The Fugaku closed the book. Then calmly spoke. "So do you expect me to go to the Third hokage with this, and what tell him what? The 9-tails Jinchuriki had dreams about all of these things?"
Menma nodded. "Yes my lord. What's the alternative a coup and countless innocent people die, and the cycle of hatred continues. This will help to stop the cycle with the Uchiha and clear your clans name."
Then Mikoto came into the room with small boxes wrapped in cloths. "Dear, it doesn't hurt to try considering the current situation." She said.
Then Mikoto sat down Infront of Menma and looked at him directly. She looked like a mother that was listening to her child's request.
"Menma I hear that you want to stop the Uchiha's from starting a coup, and stop the cycle of hatred. But what I haven't heard what you want Menma." Mikoto then looked towards the book in Fugaku's hand.
"Your sharing precious knowledge with strangers you don't' know. So tell me what is it you want in return Menma. What is your true goal to do all this?
It was in this moment Menma reflected over his life the past three years. Menma hated how he was treated, and in fact he hated the Hidden leaf village. Hated even more the whole system of ninjas, and the world that created them. So when Mikoto asked what he wanted one simple answer came to mind.
"I want to be free from being a weapon and the Jinchuriki, and I want to ...."
Everyone's eyes widen from Menam's second statement.
Then Mikoto smiled. "Menma.... I don't know how much I can do to help, but until you achieve that dream I will be there to support you."
Fugaku's voice was low and measured. "Itachi, is this enough for you to consider doing things a different way?" He said each word slowly. Fugaku didn't want to end up fighting his son and wanted his son to be happy. He only wished that he say this pain so much sooner.
"Yes father I am willing to explore this path if it leads to little to no bloodshed."
Menma's thoughts raced: They didn't dismiss me. They actually listened.
Shisui, who had been silent, now spoke quietly. "Have you ever met Danzo?"
Menma shook his head. "No. But it doesn't matter. I saw what I needed to see
The Uchihas looked at one another. Whatever Menma was, he had knowledge no one should have. After a tense moment, Shisui finally said, "If what you say is true, we should talk to the Hokage immediately."
Fugaku stood. "We will bring this information to the Third Hokage, immediately in secret. The safety of the village and our clan comes first and if Danzo and the elders are threat to that, then we will stop them." His face was resolute.
Menma realized with relief that they believed him, at least enough to take action. He sighed inwardly. Thank you, he thought.
As the adults stepped out for privacy, Mikoto took Menma's hand. "You have shown great bravery, Menma," she said softly. She promised to see he was safe ,and that his voice would be heard.
....
As Fugaku and Shisui walked Menma's back to his apartment, Shisui carried Menma's food that Mikoto prepared, and his food he caught early that day.
Right as the three arrived to Menma's building the third hokage along with other ninja were waiting. Fugaku and Shisui noticed more ninja hidden amongst the shadow's and buildings.
The tension around the three was intense. Menma knew that this could go left real quick. But he believed the third hokage did this just as a precaution. Not that it doesn't say much anything good on the Uchiha's and leaf's relation in it.
The Hiruzen slowly walked towards the three, while leaving a few feet between them.
"Lord Fugaku,...good evening"
"Good evening Lord Hokage. Me and Shisui were just ensuring young Menma made it home safe before coming to see you."
Hiruzen was curious and surprised, by Fugaku's statement. "To do I owe the honor to have the head of the Uchiha and a member of the Anbu visiting me at such a late hour?"
Then Shisui gestured to Menma. "Menma. Why don't you head inside and call it a night."
"Menma nodded. "Okay, can you please tell me how it goes later?"
Shisu nodded. "Of course. You will be the first person to know."
Menma then bowed to Lord Fugaku. "Good night Lord Uchiha, I thank you for welcoming me into your home."
Fugaku nodded. "Good night Menma, it was nice to have you over."
Menam walked past Hiruzen with no acknowledgment him.
Hiruzen and the other ninja noticed Menma's coldness to the Hokage.
Right as Menma entered his apartment unit, Hiruzen spoke.
"What is it you want to talk about Fugaku?"
Fugaku noticed how the hokage ignored the fact that him and Shisui are surrounded by at least 20 different ninja. He could tell some ranged between Chunin, and Jonin. Fugaku new that they would at least 10 more before Shisui would find them a threat. And twenty more before Fugaku himself finds them to be a threat.
Fugaku raised the book Menma wrote in,... in his hand. "I have something to discuss with you regarding the future of the hidden leaf and the Uchiha clan."
