Chapter 18: Sharp Tongue, Strong Hands! (1)

"What do you want to say?"

"I want to say, I know more than you do," Kazuki said with a smile. "Your information comes from the Hokage, but mine is from firsthand observation."

Shisui's expression shifted slightly.

He wasn't an idiot. Idiots couldn't even achieve the Mangekyo, let alone the Three Tomoe. So, he easily understood the meaning behind Kazuki's words.

After bringing up the topic, Kazuki didn't dwell on it. He just gave Shisui a hint, and Shisui would naturally think in that direction next time.

Shisui was just naive, not stupid!

He continued, "The clan is preparing for an armed coup to reclaim the position of Hokage, which they believe belongs to them."

Shisui couldn't help but question, "Is this your reason for digging out my eyes?"

They were listless, their faces hidden behind masks, staring at Kazuki's expression as if he were already dead.

"Such blatant Ninjutsu of Darkness?"

So straightforward!

But!

Were they living too comfortably?

"The relationship between the village and the clan is becoming increasingly tense. You must have thought of this too. Before you dug out my eyeballs, you even sought me out, wanting me to join you."

"Sigh!" Shisui sighed helplessly. "Kazuki, once we both have our new Sharingan transplanted, let's sit down and have a good talk."

"Every single one of them wishes they could wrap themselves up like the Second Tsuchikage, a mummy."

Kazuki said with a smile, "You two, you and Itachi, you've worked so hard for so long, but was it worth it?"

This wasn't just Kazuki being unreasonable.

The person in the lead said in a dead-quiet voice, "Please come with us!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen people appeared, making the hospital room crowded.

His breathing deepened, showing his inner turmoil.

Kazuki chuckled softly and murmured, "A good talk? Will there still be a chance after today? My plans are one after another, Onii-chan, we really won't have many opportunities to chat in the future."

They used to grow on him, so he hadn't felt it deeply.

"What I need to do now is... crush you all!"

"You look like brother!" Kazuki pouted. "Unfortunately, you... sigh, I can't be bothered to talk about you. Alright, you can go back. We'll have a good chat again when we have time."

Kazuki glanced at him and said, "I have my own plans, you don't need to worry about them. For now, just go back and rest obediently, and don't cause me any trouble."

"Anbu!"

He didn't care about anything else, but his Mangekyo's ability... Kotoamatsukami!

Shisui sighed faintly.

Are you even speaking human language?

Shisui's body trembled.

As Kazuki's words fell, figures appeared in the hospital room.

"You and Itachi, the two of you have no chance of success. Your efforts are all in vain. I think you've realized this too, and for that, I guess you've even considered using your Mangekyo."

Kazuki was being serious for once, and he actually interrupted him.

"Uchiha Kazuki!"

Shisui left.

I've worried myself sick over you!

"Don't speak!" Kazuki interrupted Shisui. "Either let me finish speaking in one go, or we can spar. Believe me, you'll enjoy this process immensely, to the point of ecstasy and death, foaming at the mouth, convulsing, as if struck by a Lightning Style ninjutsu!"

Kazuki had even guessed this?

"These four places, aren't they attracting everyone's attention right now? If anyone dares to act rashly at this moment, who knows how many eyes are on them."

It was you, my own brother, who dug them out for me.

"Uchiha!"

Shisui was stunned. "Digging out both of our eyeballs, how does that stop a coup?"

Shisui: "... Please, go ahead!"

"Eyeballs? It has nothing to do with you!"

Nonsense!

"One or two years of peace... what about after those one or two years?"

As for after this period... Heh, now that I've made my move, Konoha's four guardian beasts, do you still expect peace?

Dream on!

"This..."

Now that it was in Kazuki's hands, Shisui felt quite uneasy.

"How is this possible?"

"I will never let Konoha fall into war."

"But!"

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore."

Because of Shisui's death, the Uchiha coup was postponed.

A coup, it couldn't be done openly, right!

"Good boy, be obedient!"

Kazuki, however, smiled with a hidden meaning;

Shisui asked again.

After tapping the bed several times with his fingers, he slowly got up.

You disappointing child!

Those are my eyes!

"Alright, everyone, Uchiha Shisui is gone. How long are you going to keep hiding?"

"You're truly stupid!" Kazuki sighed, saying, "Think about it, because of you and me, your eyes were gouged out..."

"Konoha Military Police Force!"

"Yes, this is my method to stop the clan's coup!"

Kazuki said seriously, "What was the result of me gouging out your eyeballs? Look for yourself, didn't it stop the clan's armed coup?"

"Root!"

Do you think I can trust you?

Kazuki tilted his head, staring at these people, and muttered, "Danzō, what do you want to do? Sending Root members to arrest me in the hospital room?"

With so many people watching now, how can you be so sneaky?

The Mangekyo incident created by Kazuki was to imitate the death of Shisui in the original work, to buy time.

The hospital room also fell silent.

Clearly, you wronged me, and I haven't settled the score with you, yet you're so righteous?

Kazuki, however, was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, don't let the door hit you on the way out!"

Kazuki laughed heartily, saying, "Two prodigies of the Uchiha clan, attacked in the clan's core area, two Mangekyo Sharingan missing, tsk tsk, I estimate that these four departments will be more honest than each other. Within one to two years, Konoha will have minor disturbances, but no major ones!"

He silently slapped himself in the heart.

Shisui was stunned: "This, this, this is your method?"

I trusted you once, and now my eyes are gone.

"Kazuki..."

By gouging out eyes, the clan's armed coup was temporarily stopped. Next time, will you just kill me directly?

I can only say, for the sake of our brotherhood, can you show some mercy?

You're like this, I'm scared!

Shisui hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "My Mangekyo, how do you plan to deal with it?"

Shisui: "..."

"I've consulted the clan's records regarding Mangekyo Sharingan. After awakening it, there are various unique abilities, a large portion of which are related to genjutsu. I guess you are too, right? Shisui."

Little me even knows that your death is imminent within these few days. Otherwise, why would I go crazy and launch my plan at this time?

Why are you so impatient?

Am I doing that poorly?

"What? Onii-chan, don't you trust me?"

Many strange thoughts also surfaced in his heart, making him even more uneasy.

If I believe again, how many of my heart, liver, lungs, and intestines will be left?

Shisui fell silent.

The silence was unnerving.

"Who are you planning to use it on? Clan Leader Fugaku and Elder Setsuna?"

He hummed a song, moving his body back and forth.

"Kazuki, I'm your brother!"

It will definitely be done sneakily.

In the original work, it was Shisui's death that drove Uchiha Itachi mad.

Meanwhile!

Shisui: "..."

This young master has read the original work and knows you plan to use the power of Kotoamatsukami to stop the Uchiha's coup.

Shisui: "..."

A kind smile appeared on Yishū's face.

After the plan is set, corresponding strength is needed to execute it.

Therefore, Uchiha Yishū began to show off his strength!
