Appearance and build could be disguised with the Transformation Jutsu, but the Sharingan would not lie.
After using the Sharingan to identify the newcomer, Shisui's anxious heart finally settled somewhat.
Although the other party had imprisoned him and taken his Kotoamatsukami Sharingan, he had offered a plan that genuinely saved the Uchiha Clan and changed the fate of their annihilation.
From that perspective, he was at least far more reliable than the Konoha High Command and Clan Head Fugaku.
Thinking of this, Shisui gave a bitter smile. "Let them see it if they want. Leading a clan is far more difficult than I imagined. I can't even guarantee my clansmen whether Konoha will hunt us down again tomorrow."
