But if he wasn't decisive, and the situation Lord Torikaze had described truly arose, then he would become a sinner.
"Don't rush. I'll give you time to consider this. Right now, there are only early signs of it, and it can be resolved by removing the unstable elements. But in a few more years, that may no longer be the case."
"And we can help you make them disappear without anyone noticing. There won't be any bloodshed."
Hearing this, Fugaku looked up at Torikaze. "Please give me one day to consider it."
Torikaze nodded. "Of course. You are the Uchiha Clan's patriarch. The choice is entirely yours."
Afterward, Uchiha Fugaku and his wife took their leave. Torikaze tried to keep them for a while, but they declined.
They probably weren't in the mood to chat. Clan matters were more important.
After they left, Chisato came out of the house.
After advancing to Six Paths Level, Chisato's long dark-purple hair had gradually begun turning vermilion.
"It's hard on him too. No one wants to make that kind of choice."
Kagami nodded. "All I can say is, fortunately, Grandfather and Father made that choice for me. Otherwise, I would have been just as conflicted as he is. After all, they're family."
"I think he'll agree to this choice. Uchiha Fugaku is a capable junior. For the clan's long-term future, he'll come to understand it," Torikaze said calmly.
"You promised him they would disappear without anyone noticing. What, are you planning to do it yourself? Use your Cloud Release to instantly kill them?" Kagami sounded rather expectant.
Torikaze raised an eyebrow. "That could work. I haven't tried out the new abilities I gained from Cloud Release yet."
Then he waved his hand, and surging clouds glittering with crimson radiance poured from his sleeve!
