The Reversal

"Is that your father?"

Sasuke was surprised when he first saw Fugaku activate Susanoo. After all, in Fugaku's eyes, his eldest son was the best. Sasuke only remembered Fugaku's strictness towards him.

"Indeed, the Clan Head leader is quite powerful."

"How does that compare to you, Brother Shisui?"

In a child's eyes, their father is always the most powerful. Just like Sasuke now, he needs to compare his father and Shisui to see who is more powerful.

He is no match for me.

Shisui thought for a moment and said, "I wouldn't deceive a child. After all, the power of Shisui 'Sharingan is basically unbeatable."

"Ah!"

Sasuke hadn't expected Shisui's answer, and he was also somewhat unconvinced.

"How could Father not be able to defeat you? Didn't you see the giant Father summoned?"

Sasuke thought to himself, "He wouldn't understand just how freakish geniuses really are. Because Sasuke is only of average talent."

"Madam, it's perfectly safe here now. I need to leave."

Shisui spoke to Mikoto. He needed to observe the battle between Fugaku and the Grand Elder more closely. If Fugaku was no match for Shisui, he could provide timely support. Orochimaru's orders did not include the death of Fugaku Uchiha! Shisui also did not want Fugaku to die in tonight's suppression of the rebellion. The Uchiha could not afford to lose Fugaku at this moment.

"Okay, thank you, Shisui."

Mikoto knew where Shisui wanted to go. She hoped even more that Shisui would help her husband.

"Brother Shisui, can you take me there?"

Sasuke also wanted to go with Shisui. Through tonight's experience, Sasuke deeply understood his own inadequacy and once again experienced the threat of death. At this moment, Shisui didn't have any special abilities, unlike Naruto had the Nine-Tails inside him.

"You're too weak."

Shisui said mercilessly, "Don't take on heavy work if you don't have the skills. With your small arms and legs, you could easily be caught in the force. How am I supposed to explain to Itachi if something happens to you?"

After saying Shisui left immediately. He was worried that if he stayed any longer, he would catch Sasuke's stupidity.

Sasuke's mind was filled with Shisui's words. He never expected to receive such praise from Shisui Sasuke, especially since he had always been the best in Team Kakashi.

Mikoto wanted to comfort her youngest son, but didn't know what to say, so she could only hug Sasuke from behind.

"Why is no one from Konoha coming to our aid?"

The Uchiha, now at a disadvantage, thought to themselves, "During Orochimaru's rule, the Uchiha clan integrated quite well into Konoha, and the Uchiha people greatly respected Orochimaru. Shisui played a crucial role in this."

He was about to die at the hands of the Grand Elder. He closed his eyes, but after a long time, he felt no pain.

"Chunin, don't give up hope!"

Minato Namikaze arrived. The Yellow Flash was as fast as ever.

"Great Fireball Technique"

Obito shouted loudly.

"Obito"

"I'm so happy!" said the rescued Uchiha.

Immediately afterwards, I heard a chorus of birdsong.

"Lightning Blade."

The Grand Elder's subordinates lost their lives one by one under this overwhelming attack.

"Lord Kakashi"

The remaining Uchiha were overjoyed to see Konoha's reinforcements arrive; they knew Konoha had not abandoned them.

Just as they were about to communicate, the battle between the Grand Elder and Fugaku caught their attention.

"Chunin, immediately organize the clansmen to retreat. Leave the rest of the battle to us."

"Yes, Obito."

Soon, all the Uchiha left. They knew the battle that followed was beyond their reach. After all, the feeling of insignificance they experienced when facing that giant was something they didn't want to confront.

After seeing that Obito had made arrangements, Minato and the others resumed their journey. After all, the only way to minimize casualties was to address the root cause of the problem. And the root, being such a large target, was a prime target for their journey.

"Ding, ding, ding."

Itachi was still locked in battle with Shin Uchiha. Both had wounds, but Itachi had significantly more. It's true what they say, experience counts! Just as the two Susanoo, Itachi momentarily lost focus. In a clash between experts, even the slightest opening can be exploited. Shin Uchiha seized this opportunity to inflict a severe injury on Uchiha Itachi.

Itachi covered his wound and used Shin Uchiha's strength to move far away from him.

"Wrong."

Uchiha Itachi suddenly felt his Chakra flow slow down. His eyes were fixed on Shin Uchiha's katana. He hadn't expected that Shin Uchiha's katana was coated with poison.

"Looks like you sensed it!"

Shin Uchiha saw Itachi staring at his katana and knew that Itachi had already noticed his physical discomfort.

"I even injured myself trying to deal with you."

Shin Uchiha deliberately engaged in a fight with Itachi to lower Itachi's guard, giving himself the opportunity to poison Itachi and achieve victory with minimal losses. Those who play mind games are cunning.

Itachi knew he had failed this time. He had lost because of underhanded tactics.

"I will not let you die a painful death."

Shin Uchiha was overjoyed to see that he was about to kill a genius. His face practically lit up with a smile. It was important to know that Uchiha Itachi was one of the twin geniuses of the Uchiha Clan, the other being Shisui.

"Puff."

Suddenly, Shin Uchiha, who was walking towards Uchiha Itachi, coughed up a mouthful of blood. He couldn't believe it; he was about to kill Uchiha Itachi, so why was he bleeding all of a sudden?

That was a brutal strike; it pierced straight through Shin Uchiha's back and out his heart.

Itachi was also stunned by this scene; it was a glimmer of hope! After all, nobody wants to die.

"Why?"

Shin Uchiha asked while spitting out blood. He had been betrayed. There was a mole in his team, and a very high-ranking one at that.

"I am Shisui's person."

The fact that the Grand Elder's confidant was actually one of Shisui's men was a huge blow to the usually arrogant Shin Uchiha, because he hadn't even realized it; it was hidden too well.

"Considering we've spent so much time together, I'll spare your corpse!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shin Uchiha's heart was instantly shredded.

Shin Uchiha stared wide-eyed, his eyes wide open in death.

When the Grand Elder's men saw that Shin Uchiha was dead, they were thrown into chaos, trees fell and birds flew away, each fleeing for their lives.

"Thanks."

Itachi expressed his gratitude, saying that he would have been dead if it weren't for this person.

"Don't thank me. Thank Lord Shisui."

The undercover agent knew how much Shisui valued Itachi. If he watched Itachi die in front of him, Shisui would definitely make things difficult for him later.
