Shiyu advised, "If a powerful enemy emerges in the Shinobi World capable of easily annihilating a ninja village, your protection will become worthless. Instead, join me in protecting the peace of the entire Shinobi World, so that Konoha will be spared from calamity in future conflicts."
Shisui said, "But we are Konoha ninjas, Uchiha who inherited the Will of Fire. If we don't protect Konoha will?"
Shiyu shook her head and said, "If what you did was right, you wouldn't have been forced into this situation."
"Root represents the darkness of Konoha. Once you have the power to protect Konoha, they will try every means to take it away from you. The reason is not only because you are ninjas of the Uchiha Clan, but more importantly, Danzo is greedy and unscrupulous."
"Do you really intend to exterminate all the Uchiha in order to maintain the peace of Konoha? Don't you think that peace built on bloodshed is utterly hypocritical?"
"Think about it, the peace of the village needs your sacrifices to be maintained. How incompetent is such a village? Don't tell me that Hiruzen Sarutobi is different from Danzo. Without his tacit approval, Danzo wouldn't have launched such a large-scale operation."
"A true village doesn't exist at the cost of others' lives. I suggest you pretend to be dead now and come with me to the Shinobi Village!"
Shiyu's meaning was very clear: he was inviting the two to his village. In his own village, Shiyu would not sacrifice his subordinates and companions to seize the power of others; doing so would be nothing short of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
"I see. So Shiyu, you gave us both a chance to choose again." Shisui paused, deep in thought.
Shiyu knew that Shisui and Itachi were quite determined, but being impatient to get them to join would only backfire.
"Fine, I won't force you. I fully support your decision to make your own choice. I just want you to know that there's another way when you have no other options."
Shiyu then said, "I have a more feasible method. This would not only prevent internal strife within the Uchiha Clan but also prevent invasions of Konoha by other countries. Since you are willing to sacrifice yourselves, then you can also sacrifice your freedom, except for your own lives, right?"
Shisui and Itachi exchanged a glance and immediately asked, "Shiyu, how do you want to help us?"
Shiyu then said, "What you're worried about is the Uchiha Clan's coup. In my opinion, there's no need to kill the Uchiha Clan at all. Just leave the matter to me. I'll persuade the Uchiha Clan to leave Konoha and join the Shinobi Village. I'll take all the blame. Anyway, Konoha can't say that I was resurrected and did it, can they?"
"This will not only prevent the annihilation of the Uchiha Clan, but also prevent losses between the village and the clan. Furthermore, once the Uchiha Clan joins the Shinobi Village, I will issue a statement on behalf of the Shinobi Village to the entire Shinobi World: the Uchiha Clan's joining the Shinobi Village from Konoha signifies that Konoha is a friend of the Shinobi Village. Within five years, any village that attempts to invade Konoha will be considered an enemy by me!"
"In this way, the Uchiha Clan will not only gain a good reputation for securing peace, but also avoid losses to the clan, while Konoha will suffer no losses whatsoever. However, I hope that by this time, you will have already joined my Shinobi Village."
Shiyu gave the two a choice, a new path, and even a bright future.
"As expected of Shiyu, he came up with such a perfect solution. But won't there be any problems with doing this? What if the Uchiha Clan doesn't agree to relocate or join the Shinobi Village?" Shisui asked.
"Don't worry, they'll make their own choice between survival and destruction. Rather than staying in Konoha, isolated and rejected, it's better to go to a village where the Uchiha Clan can make their own decisions. Besides, the old clan leader is in the village, so I'm sure they won't refuse." Shiyu assured him that there was absolutely no problem.
Shisui and Itachi both showed a long-lost smile. If things really could develop as Shiyu had said, then it would be a turning point for the two of them.
"Shiyu, if the Uchiha Clan hadn't experienced turmoil, do you think Konoha would still have tolerated us?" Shisui thought for a moment and asked a question he wasn't entirely sure about.
"Ha!" Shiyu sneered, which served as her answer.
"Someone's coming after us, it should be Danzo." Shiyu finished speaking, Shisui and Itachi also sensed the arrival of a wave of Root ninjas.
Among the Root ninjas, Danzo, with half his face wrapped in white cloth, was naturally the one in the Danzo.
"You've actually betrayed us. Three Uchiha? Shisui, Itachi, I'm giving you one last chance. Subdue Shiyu immediately! The Root ninjas will also help you, otherwise you will lose your chance to serve Konoha." Danzo knew their loyalty well, so he used this to threaten them.
Shisui and Itachi immediately shook their heads and said, "Danzo, you are really despicable. You are no match for Shiyu, so you want to use the two of us to entangle Shiyu. Once you have the chance, you will immediately take my eyes and try to control him by using Kotoamatsukami, right?"
Danzo sneered, "Now that you know my purpose, I will wipe out all three of you this time! Then I will take action against the Uchiha Clan!"
With Danzo of his hand, Danzo surrounded Shiyu with his Root ninjas.
"Itachi, Shisui, I wonder how Kunai your Uchiha Clan is practicing kunai and shuriken throwing techniques?" Shiyu asked.
"Don't worry! Itachi and I are both top-notch fighters," Shisui said.
"Then, these Kunai are yours." Shiyu then handed over his Flying Thunder God Kunai to the two of them.
Knowing Shiyu's techniques well, the two of them stylishly threw Flying Thunder God Kunai at the Root ninjas when they attacked.
"Go all out! I'll wipe out all this trash!" Shiyu threw out his Flying Thunder God Kunai, and immediately Shiyu used the Wood Clone Technique to create many clones of himself.
Since the Wood Clone Flying Thunder God also be used, countless Shiyu clones launched an indiscriminate and uninterrupted super-fast attack on the Root ninjas.
Shiyu's speed was simply too fast; each Body Flicker Technique was like the Grim Reaper, closing in on the enemy step by step.
In the blink of an eye, he had already taken the lives of countless Root ninjas with the Dragon Fang Blade in his hand.
Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui were also using Ninjutsu on the sidelines. If Shiyu was the main attacker, then the two of them were the support, constantly using Fire Style attacks to target the Root ninjas.
"So powerful," the Root ninja exclaimed.
