Changes Begin from Shinobi World Text Volume Chapter 238 Uchiha Catastrophe At dawn, the sky will be bright but not yet bright.

Uchiha In the gathering area, some ninjas had already begun activities, and after a while, they naturally discovered four corpses lying in an alley.

A murder occurred in the tribe's territory, which quickly attracted the attention of Uchiha's top brass, and a large number of ninjas surrounded the crime scene.

At first, they thought that a Uchiha ninja had been murdered, so they were all filled with indignation and clamored for revenge. But soon, they discovered that this was not the case.

For a moment, the discovery scene became strangely quiet. Everyone was silent, their brows furrowed, and they looked at a loss.

It wasn't until Uchiha Shisui squeezed into the crowd with his two friends that he broke the silence.

"Give in, give in..."

Because Uchiha Shisui is currently in a foul-smelling state within the Uchiha Clan, he received the news later and his actions were slower.

When he squeezed through the crowd and walked into the discovery site, he found the patriarch Uchiha Fugaku standing motionless, with several elders beside him.

"Clan leader, can I take a look at the scene?" Uchiha Shisui asked.

Those words were also addressed to all the Uchiha ninjas present.

There were two companions beside Shisui. One was slightly younger, so my expression slowly became exactly the same as Shisui. The other ninja might be old and lacked understanding of the village, so I still knew what was going on. I could only ask Shisui: "Shisui, then... what happened?"

Fei Qiaojie Weasel came to the inner circle of the crowd. I wanted to go back, but before I heard Shisui's explanation from a distance, I stopped dead in my tracks, turned around and left silently... The matter outside involved the son of the village chief, so at that time some people were paying attention to the whereabouts of the son of the patriarch.

At that point in time, it was definitely wrong for ANBU ninjas to do that. We just performed our duties faithfully.

"It's broken. Let him go and do his own thing. You try to appease the little family." Half an hour ago, Fugaku felt that the time difference was too small, so he said to Shisui.

The only thing to blame is that Shisui himself is sharp enough.

A total of eighteen ninjas are ready to fight.

No one was just about to come up with a bad idea. Suddenly, sharp whistles came from everywhere in Konoha. What about destroying corpses and eradicating traces? First of all, that was impossible to do. Even if the corpses and the discovery site could be destroyed, Konoha ANBU can track it down with only other clues. Before the corpses are destroyed and all traces are destroyed, are they going to kill people to silence them? There are so few Uchiha ninjas at the scene, can we all keep it secret and leak everything?

It can't be said that Uchiha Clan has no room for change as soon as the white pot is put on the table. And after thinking about it casually, I found that it can also be regarded as a white pot, even though we don't seem to be innocent... Is Fei Qiaojie Obito still Uchiha?

"Bad." Uchiha Fugaku said with a smile.

Yes, Eighth Hokage is a rational and tolerant person. What I value most is Konoha's core interests, but the question is who can guarantee that Eighth Hokage can still remain rational. Hokage is not old yet, and he is carrying a stalemate, and now the eldest son I value most is dead, and the cause of death of that eldest son was murder!

Shisui The complexion that had just recovered after that became bloodless again. I had my words right, and I understood why I was being treated like this now.

A team of ANBU ninjas died inside Uchiha Residential Area. The nature of the incident was indeed very minor, but it should have left Shisui devastated.

The ninja leading the team said in an indifferent voice, "Uchiha Shisui, his eyes are too safe. How could he be allowed to come into contact with the Hokage villain at that time?"

"What?"

"Fugaku, it's time to prepare for the worst." A gray-haired Uchiha elder said to Fugaku.

Doing things for both parties, but being treated as one of our own by both parties, is also the path Uchiha Shisui has chosen.

Escape from Konoha, that may not be the real plan of Fugaku, because I understand the strength comparison between the two sides. My clan leader is from Hutu, and what he wants is rebellion, but unity.

It's strange, it's strange that Fugaku patriarch would communicate with me so seriously and cordially.

"ANBU... Captain?"

Uchiha Fugaku opened his mouth, but found that everything he said was coming out of his mouth. I could only nod along...Uchiha had an ANBU death, but the nature of that time was too minor.

Uchiha Shisui nodded, "Clan leader, if you work together from two directions and work together, you will definitely be able to solve the current problem."

Since Fei Qiaojie Shisui is willing to take sides, then Uchiha Fugaku can only help me take sides. Fei Qiaojie Fugaku also needs Uchiha Shisui is of the same mind as me. Does Shisui hope to see both sides bleed? Now it is Uchiha who is about to bleed. Is this Shisui just watching?

But the problem is that Shisui is too naive. I am still praying for peace, as if I understand the dangerous situation at this time.

However, things were not as bad as they were, only more exciting. When Shisui left the two corpses and went to check the other two corpses, just by looking at the animal masks under their faces, I suddenly stood up and my face quickly turned pale.

At such a critical moment, I first followed Uchiha and then to Naka Shrine, and then stayed outside for less than half an hour. From the perspective of the village, it was not a sign of standing in line.

The nature of the incident at hand, for the Fei Qiaojie family, would be more minor than the Four-Tails incident that later led to the death of Seventh Hokage. After all, the responsibility for that incident was very clear no matter how you look at it, and it was also Uchiha's.

Uchiha Shisui wanted to refute, but Fugaku stretched out his hand to stop me, "Shisui, you can discuss it in detail later."

Just listen to Uchiha Shisui continue to say, "Hyōsube and Shadow Man are, of course, just the secret code names of ANBU. The actual identities of those two people are not secret. We only use the ANBU code names to insult the rules and traditions of ANBU. Specifically, the identities of the ANBU captain and his deputy are actually... Sarutobi Shinsuke and my wife."

Uchiha Fugaku was like a dead stone that suddenly came to life. He turned his neck stiffly and glanced at Shisui, then nodded slowly.

As long as Fei Qiaojie Fugaku delays Shisui's actions, at that critical moment, the trust Shisui has established at the lower levels of Konoha will be instantly wiped out. After all, you didn't trust him just to let him play a role at the critical moment. Now that the critical moment has come, what is his role?

"Sarutobi... Shinsuke..."

"Then... how is that possible?"

"Not yet, it must be an emergency situation. You will choose to fight, but will flee with Fei Qiaojie's family. He must understand that your helplessness is to cause less damage to Konoha, which is your limit. I hope the village will kill them all." Fugaku said again.

Uchiha Shisui lacks political sensitivity. If I really wanted to clear up the misunderstanding, I should have come to Hokage to report as soon as I saw the body. Only then would the village continue to retain trust in me. However, I followed Uchiha Clan's steps soberly, which shows that I am very reliable politically.

Sarutobi Shinsuke has been in battle for a long time and died in the war. This is seeking benevolence and getting benevolence, but what about dying in Uchiha?

Those words seemed sincere, but in fact they had no other intentions than Fugaku. The rift between Konoha and Uchiha can only become smaller and smaller. It is too difficult to restore trust. Fugaku is willing to bet.

However, the young ninja still didn't understand what the matter was.

Fei Qiaojie Shisui didn't seem to believe it, and then I gritted my teeth and reached out to lift off the two masks. But when my fingertips really touched the icy-hot masks, my palms didn't even freeze for a moment... It was out of fear, as if I had to lift the lid of hell.

But Uchiha Shisui, before listening to those words, trusted the patriarch.

Uchiha Shisui's voice was not difficult, "Well... Konoha, the ANBU captain, is the eldest son of Eighth Hokage."

Explain rationally to Konoha and help catch the murderer? In other words, if the incident happened to the Hyuga Clan, Konoha would be willing to do that, but then it would be Uchiha... First, Konoha is suspicious of Uchiha, and Uchiha is also suspicious of Konoha.

"Why everyone, this is about the village and Uchiha. The situation is really very tense."

Then I continued to make arrangements, "Leave two people outside to guard the scene. Konoha Ninja must not have arrived. Give the body to us to avoid entanglement and conflict... The remaining people will go back to the shrine with you."

The young ninja finally realized the true nature of the matter. The ANBU was Hokage's thug, and the ANBU captain was a low-level figure. In theory, Konoha's status, influence, and power were much weaker than any ninja clan leader.

However, when I arrived behind the Hokage office building, I was instantly blocked by the seventh team of ANBU ninjas.

"Everyone, you want to see Project Yashiro. You have nothing important to report."

"Uchiha Shisui, you ask him, when he saw the specific situation, why did he report it to villain Hokage immediately? Isn't that how he repays the trust of villain Hokage and the lower level? Then what did he do before? He was conspiring with Uchiha!"

But Shisui didn't notice the sense of violation beyond that, because I am the kind of person who hopes that both parties will be bad. In my opinion, it is better for Uchiha to leave than for Uchiha to have bloodshed with Konoha. It is better to die or not... Obviously, I am too idealistic and do not understand politics very well.

Uchiha Fugaku called Shisui into a room alone. I raised my voice and said, "You will try your best to suppress the voices of riots within the clan and at the same time assist the Anbu to find out the truth. Sarutobi Shinsuke's death is not suspicious. I It's the top elite Genin, who can kill me soundly? Uchiha Clan has no such ninja at all! Hokage also understands that, as long as the truth is found out, everything is not negotiable!"

"Can it destroy corpses..."

A small group of Fei Qiaojie ninjas followed the patriarch Fei Qiaojie Fugaku to Naka Shrine of the Uchiha Clan, including Uchiha Shisui.

After Uchiha Shisui got the permission, I carefully Earth Flow squatted down next to the corpse and observed. The mask that fell on the ground showed that the ninja who died there belonged to the ANBU. And just by looking at it, I knew that the two ninjas who died in mutual assassination were extremely unlikely to be affected by weak illusions.

"Chief, you will work hard to maintain communication channels between the village and the clan."

Then, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Shisui chatted in detail for half an hour, which made Shisui feel more at ease, because the patriarch and I have the same idea. As long as we work together, the result will be the best... Fugaku has never explained my thoughts to Shisui in such detail.

"Why?" The leader of the team felt that Uchiha Shisui was reasonable. "There is nothing to ask. He has not made a choice between the village and Uchiha."

In the strange eyes of other clan members, Uchiha Shisui left Naka Shrine excitedly, and then I walked quickly towards Hokage's office building. I had to explain to Hokage what was happening in front of me, and I also had to convey the clan leader's intentions in a good way.

Since Uchiha Shisui is one of their own, how could the ANBU ninjas let me see Eighth Hokage. Maybe Hokage himself was willing to see me at that time, but Hokage would simply receive Uchiha Shisui's application. The so-called subordinates are not doing that. Uchiha Shisui's security is too small.

That made Uchiha Shisui's heart sink. Who among all Konoha has the worst illusions, and which clan is most famous for their illusions?

But no matter what, Shisui's movements did not stop. I still looked at the two masks, saw the faces on the masks, and confirmed our identities at the same time.

Now it doesn't matter who did it or whether the murderer was the murderer. What matters is how to deal with it next.

However, there is still no problem with my words, as if Konoha's decision to kill us all is Konoha's fault. But in fact, once Uchiha escapes, Konoha will use all its strength to destroy it. There is no room for negotiation, and the reasons even need to be explained.

"..."

"Illusion..."

All I can say is that playing politics outside of your heart is dirty. "..."

That reaction was unexpected by Uchiha Shisui, because the lower levels of the village had always supported my actions, but why did their attitude suddenly change at such a critical period?

No one is thinking that anymore... Konoha finally found an excuse to completely destroy Uchiha Clan. It was even a legitimate excuse, because the Fei Qiaojie family couldn't argue with Sarutobi Shinsuke's death.

Shisui not only needs to protect Konoha, but also the Fei Qiaojie family. For Uchiha Fugaku, if Uchiha Clan wants to take the initiative to rebel, then Uchiha Shisui's mother is undoubtedly an obstacle, but if Konoha wants to deal with Uchiha, it will need Fugaku's persuasion, and Shisui will know what to do.

Uchiha Shisui bit the corner of his mouth. Because of the excessive force, a string of blood beads slipped off. I suppressed my emotions and said to the young ninja, "Those two people are the ANBU captain Hyōsube and my deputy."

When things came to an end, Uchiha Clan no longer had the arrogance and unruly temperament that he had in the past. What we had underneath us was actually a kind of resentment that people would use their swords to kill others.

For Uchiha Fugaku, whether Uchiha Clan chooses to passively protect himself, break out of the encirclement and escape, or fight to the death, Uchiha Shisui's combat effectiveness is indispensable.
