Chapter 345 Itachi and Fugaku
Chapter 345 Itachi and Fugaku
Danzo asked Uchiha Itachi meaningfully what the strengthening of the Konoha police force meant.
Uchiha Itachi paused for a moment before answering, "The Uchiha's dissatisfaction with the village has intensified once again."
Danzo pretended to sigh and said, "We can't maintain the status quo."
Uchiha Itachi looked up at Danzo in the shadows and said, "Yes."
Danzo turned to look at Uchiha Itachi: "You should also know that the Anbu and my Root are monitoring the every move of the Uchiha clan. If there is any unusual movement of the Uchiha clan, we will definitely be able to react immediately.
The situation of the Uchiha people is now out of control, and it is impossible to resolve this conflict without bloodshed.
Hiruzen is too indecisive. The reason for this situation is because of Hiruzen's indecision. If Hiruzen could make up his mind from the beginning, the relationship between Uchiha and Konoha would not be so tense.
Now everyone knows that Shisui's death only delayed the Uchiha coup, and the Uchiha coup was definitely going to happen.
So it's time for you to consider whether to stand on the Uchiha side or on our side."
Uchiha Itachi lowered his head again and said "yes".
Uchiha Itachi left the Root base with a gloomy look in his eyes.
Uchiha Itachi also understood that the voices of a coup within the Uchiha clan were growing louder and louder, and that his father Uchiha Fugaku had shown various signs of leaning towards a coup.
Uchiha Itachi came to the surveillance room where the Anbu monitored the Uchiha clan's territory.
All the screens were showing the situation inside the Uchiha clan's territory.
Uchiha Itachi saw the person on one of the screens, Uchiha Izumi.
Uchiha Izumi is one of the few good friends of Uchiha Itachi.
If a coup d'état happens, Uchiha Izumi will definitely not be spared.
And his younger brother Uchiha Sasuke.
Uchiha Itachi remembered Uchiha Shisui's last words.
"Please protect the village and the Uchiha name."
Uchiha Itachi murmured bitterly: "Shisui, you really left me with a difficult problem. Is there really no way to have the best of both worlds?"
Uchiha Itachi was on a mission for a while and rarely returned to the Uchiha clan.
Today at dusk.
Uchiha Itachi returned to the Uchiha clan territory.
Uchiha Itachi saw the Uchiha family emblem on the wall, which had a crack because it was nailed by a kunai.
Although the kunai is gone, the crack still exists.
"Brother, you're back!"
Uchiha Itachi looked behind him and saw Uchiha Sasuke standing at the door.
Uchiha Sasuke said excitedly: "I'm going to train, brother, come with me!"
"I just finished a mission. I'm so tired."
Uchiha Sasuke trotted in front of Uchiha Itachi: "Brother, how can you be tired?"
Uchiha Itachi walked in front of Uchiha Sasuke, and under Uchiha Sasuke's expectant gaze, he stretched out his finger and flicked Uchiha Sasuke's forehead.
Uchiha Sasuke covered his forehead: "It hurts..."
Uchiha Itachi walked forward: "Forgive me, Sasuke, maybe next time."
Uchiha Itachi walked towards his room, but found Uchiha Fugaku standing in the corridor.
"You should know that there will be a gathering in the tribe in three days, right?"
Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Itachi expressionlessly.
Uchiha Itachi stopped and said, "I don't know."
Uchiha Fugaku said: "After the meeting, you go to Nanga Shrine alone, do not bring the Anbu subordinates."
"I will be leaving the village on a mission starting tomorrow."
Uchiha Itachi's voice was low, he really hated Uchiha gatherings.
Because the only things discussed at the meeting were coups d'etat, Uchiha Itachi even felt disgusted with the Nanga Shrine.
Uchiha Itachi just took a few steps forward when he heard Uchiha Fugaku's serious voice: "Don't run away."
"Escape? What am I running away from?"
"Escape your fate as an Uchiha. Remember, I'll wait for you."
Uchiha Fugaku's tone did not allow for refusal, and after he finished speaking, Uchiha Fugaku left.
Three nights later.
The gathering at Nanga Shrine has ended.
The Uchiha clan members are leaving Nanga Shrine one after another.
Uchiha Itachi, who was hiding in a tree, kept his eyes on a girl.
This girl is Uchiha Izumi.
Behind Uchiha Itachi, the two Root ninjas also followed.
The mission of these two Root ninjas was to monitor Uchiha Itachi, and they almost never left his side.
When Uchiha Itachi saw his mother Uchiha Mikoto was the last to leave, Uchiha Itachi ordered the two Root Ninjas: "Stay where you are!"
The Root Ninjas definitely didn't want Uchiha Itachi to be out of their sight: "But Captain..."
"Report the truth to Lord Danzo."
Uchiha Itachi didn't give the two a chance to speak again, and used the instant body-flash technique to disappear from the spot.
Uchiha Itachi entered the Nanga Shrine and found Uchiha Fugaku.
Uchiha Fugaku stood in front of the Uchiha stele and looked at it.
"Only those in the clan with the Sharingan can read this stone tablet, but they can only understand part of it. With the Mangekyō Sharingan, you should be able to understand more."
Uchiha Itachi was not surprised that Uchiha Fugaku knew that he had opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Because when he knelt in front of the three Uchiha Yashiro that day and opened his Mangekyō Sharingan, Uchiha Itachi noticed Uchiha Fugaku's gaze.
"Want me to tell you what it's about?"
"That's not necessary."
Uchiha Fugaku turned and looked at Uchiha Itachi.
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes are actually the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Uchiha Itachi said in shock: "Mangekyo?! Father, you have one too?"
"It was during the Third Shinobi World War. My friend saved me at the cost of his own life. With blood and tears, I was able to open the Mangekyō Sharingan."
Uchiha Fugaku turned his head and continued to look at the stone tablet: "This stone tablet records the Uchiha clan's road to redemption, but even with the Mangekyō Sharingan, we can't read the text behind it. It seems that we can go further.
However, even though you can only read part of it, once you read it you should be able to understand, Itachi, what a wrong environment the Uchiha clan is in right now!"
Uchiha Itachi retorted: "That doesn't mean we can use force to overthrow the country..."
"The village leaders are afraid of us, so they persecute us. They are afraid of the power of the Sharingan. After all, the greatest threat is right there now."
The disaster that Uchiha Fugaku was referring to was naturally Chiba.
"Yes, there are even rumors that the Uchiha may use the Sharingan to control the Kyuubi."
Uchiha Itachi acknowledged what Uchiha Fugaku said about the top leaders being afraid. If the top leaders of Konoha were not afraid of them, they would not have done this.
