Konoha Village,
Upper reaches of the Nanhe River,
In a forest that is rarely inhabited;
"Who the hell are you?"
Swish!!
A sound of breaking air rang out.
Uchiha Shisui stared solemnly at a mysterious person wearing a white-bearded mask in front of him, and a monstrous wave rose in his heart.
He had appeared.
The mysterious man who had been hidden for seven years finally appeared.
Back during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Uchiha Shisui had once caught a glimpse of the mysterious figure from a distance.
The result?
Just now, when he was on his way to the Hokage's office to inform the Third Hokage about the Uchiha clan's rebellion plans, he had spotted a sneaky figure leaving the Uchiha compound. Out of curiosity, he chased after him, only to realize—it was actually the mysterious man who had suppressed the Nine-Tails seven years ago.
But—
Compared to seven years ago,
This mysterious man's aura seemed even stronger and more oppressive.
"Uchiha Shisui, don't you recognize me?"
Hearing this, Uchiha Yuta paused, standing atop a large tree, smiling faintly.
"Who the hell are you?"
Uchiha Shisui's expression stiffened, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"Alas!!"
Uchiha Yuta shook his head with a smile, removed the white-bearded mask, and said lightly, "Why don't you take a closer look?"
"You... Are you?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible...."
The moment Uchiha Yuta took off the mask, Uchiha Shisui looked as if he had seen a ghost, staggering back several steps in shock.
Uchiha Yuta—
It was actually Uchiha Yuta! How was this possible?
For a moment, Shisui's mind buzzed blankly.
No way.
He had never imagined that the mysterious man wearing the white-bearded mask was actually a member of the Uchiha clan—an elite Taijutsu user at that.
Just thinking about it was terrifying.
Thinking back to how, seven years ago, Uchiha Yuta had easily suppressed the Nine-Tails, Uchiha Shisui felt a wave of unease.
"Uchiha Yuta, you're lying to me, aren't you?"
Taking a deep breath, Uchiha Shisui said coldly, "You didn't even train in chakra or ninjutsu. How could you have been the mysterious figure from seven years ago? What are you trying to do by bringing me here?"
Hearing this,
Uchiha Yuta couldn't be bothered to explain. His eyes narrowed as he said lightly, "Facing endless oppression from Konoha's upper ranks, the Uchiha clan is about to rebel. You're going to meet the Third Hokage, probably planning to spill everything, right?"
"What did you say?"
A trace of panic flashed in Uchiha Shisui's eyes. He quickly retorted, "Patriarch Fugaku ordered me to meet Hokage-sama. How could I betray the clan?"
"That's it!!"
Uchiha Yuta glanced at Shisui like he was looking at an idiot and said, "In front of me, don't tell such jokes."
(If you want to read intense novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
If Uchiha Yuta remembered correctly,
In the original timeline,
This idiot Shisui went back and tried to tell the truth,
Got ambushed by Danzo's men, lost a Mangekyō Sharingan,
And later created the illusion of destroying his own eye to prevent war—then committed suicide by throwing himself into the river.
His only purpose?
Probably just to help Uchiha Itachi awaken his Mangekyō Sharingan, so Itachi could more easily annihilate the Uchiha clan.
Truly,
The peak of betrayal.
"What the hell do you want, Uchiha Yuta? I don't have time to mess around with you."
Hearing this,
Uchiha Shisui clearly got a little angry. He turned around to leave—he still needed to meet the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and maybe even use Kotoamatsukami on the Uchiha Patriarch, Fugaku.
After all,
The rebellion of the Uchiha clan had already become irreversible.
Under Konoha's Will of Fire, he believed he had to suppress the Uchiha clan by any means, even controlling Fugaku with Kotoamatsukami.
"Uchiha Shisui, let me ask you one last question: if you had to choose between the village and the clan, who would you choose?"
Even though Uchiha Yuta was already disappointed in Shisui, he still took a deep breath and asked again.
"Isn't that obvious?"
Hearing this, Shisui paused slightly, then turned back and said solemnly, "If Konoha and the Uchiha cannot coexist, then I will choose Konoha."
"Because I am Uchiha Shisui of Konoha, not Uchiha Shisui of the Uchiha. If the clan wants to rebel, the only way to protect the village is to cut them down quickly."
"Got it?"
"I don't understand!!"
Uchiha Yuta sighed, shaking his head.
"You might as well be called Sarutobi Shisui, or Shimura Shisui. Calling yourself Uchiha Shisui is an insult to the clan."
"Uchiha Yuta, don't force me!!"
Hearing this,
Uchiha Shisui's anger exploded, and he said coldly, "You don't think I used my full power when I fought you with Susanoo, do you?"
"In front of the Mangekyō Sharingan, your precious Taijutsu is nothing but a joke."
Fine!!
Being led here by Uchiha Yuta,
Having his faith in the Will of Fire questioned,
Even a clay doll would have a temper—let alone someone as hot-blooded as Uchiha Shisui.
"Oh!!"
Uchiha Yuta casually tossed aside the white-bearded mask and said lightly, "You think I used my real strength back then?"
"With all due respect... I actually have a Mangekyō Sharingan too...."
