Shiyu's words startled Shisui. Shisui naturally couldn't imagine what an enemy at the level of the Sage of Six Paths would be like, but from what he heard, he knew that it was beyond his current capabilities.

"It's too early to think about these things now. Let's be more realistic. Since I promised to help you resolve this issue, let's take this opportunity to settle things completely now."

Shiyu suggested, "While Itachi is still suffering from the pain of the Genjutsu, I intend to end all of this for him."

Shisui knew that Shiyu only wanted to persuade Fugaku Uchiha, not to massacre the Uchiha, so he remained quite calm.

"Take Itachi to rest first. Once he wakes up, he will definitely have the Mangekyo," Shiyu said with great certainty.

"Take Itachi to the Naka Shrine and wait for me. You can go and see the Uchiha Stone Tablet first." After Shiyu finished making the arrangements, Shisui took Itachi away, and Shiyu headed straight for the Uchiha Clan's Earth Flow near the Konoha Police Force headquarters.

Since both were in the same place, Shiyu easily found the place where the Uchiha Clan.

Activating his senses, Shiyu discovered that the Fugaku Uchiha family of three was present, with one child fast asleep.

"It seems Sasuke is in here too." Shiyu then quietly slipped inside, deliberately revealing some of Shiyu presence.

Fugaku Uchiha immediately noticed the unusual activity around him.

"What's going on!? Is anyone here? Who is it!?" Fugaku Uchiha shouted, and then Shiyu slowly appeared.

"I'm sorry to bother you so late, it's really beneath my dignity, Uchiha Clan Head Chief," Shiyu said calmly.

Shiyu seeing Fugaku Uchiha was so terrified that he collapsed to the ground.

"You are! Uchiha Shigure. How could this be? How did you end up here?" Fugaku asked in surprise, but knowing Shiyu's strength, he knew just how terrifying Shiyu was.

"I was just passing through Konoha when I heard you were planning a coup to Konoha power, so I came here specifically to collect your bodies," Shiyu said.

"Impossible!? How could you know about this? And what about collecting the body? What's that all about?" Fugaku was also very surprised.

Shiyu then sat cross-legged, indicating that he did not intend to take action.

"The Konoha Village already knows about your plan. Shisui originally intended to stop you, but he was attacked by Danzo and Root. If I hadn't intervened, Shisui would probably have been killed," Shiyu explained.

"Based on the course of events, Uchiha Itachi should inherit Shisui's will, protect the village, and eventually slaughter you all, becoming missing-nin and bearing everything alone." Although Shiyu said it was his own prediction, he was actually telling Fugaku the actual situation that should have happened.

Fugaku nodded and sighed heavily, saying, "Itachi has made his decision. But Shiyu, why did you tell him this?"

"What is your purpose?" Fugaku asked, somewhat puzzled.

Shiyu laughed and said, "Smart! My target is naturally Shisui and Itachi. Both of them are Mangekyō Sharingan users. I greatly admire their intelligence and strength. Rather than wasting their lives in Konoha, they should come with me to the Shinobi Village I control."

Fugaku then said, "Since those two are willing to sacrifice their clan for the village, why would they come with you to your village?"

Shiyu then immediately said, "Logically speaking, your entire Uchiha clan should be slaughtered, but I am willing to accept your entire clan, since there are already some Uchiha in the Shinobi Village."

"Furthermore, I am willing to bear the blame for persuading you to join the Shinobi Village. However, I will also represent the Shinobi Village Uchiha clan to issue a statement to the entire Shinobi World, securing five years of peace for Konoha. In this way, your defection will be a voluntary migration by your clan, and Konoha will have no grounds for objection."

"In this way, neither the Uchiha Clan nor Konoha suffered any losses. I also secured five years of peace for Konoha. Shisui and Itachi are both people with a broad perspective, so of course they knew I had such abilities, which is why they chose to trust me."

"Don't forget, the former clan head of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Masamune, is also there. I will not have any racial discrimination. Everyone in my village is equal. I am not afraid of the strength of any particular clan, because everything they enjoy is something they have earned themselves."

Shiyu explained his reasons and thoughts in one breath, and Fugaku finally understood the purpose of Shiyu's trip.

"Are you planning to make me move my entire clan out of Konoha? The Uchiha Clan was responsible for establishing Konoha. If we just leave after all these decades of hard work, I'm afraid the clan members will be unwilling to accept it," said Fugaku Uchiha.

"You either leave or you die, that's all you have to do? What's there to be reluctant about? As long as the green hills remain, there's always hope. As the head of the Uchiha Clan, you can't just watch your entire clan die, can you? How will you explain that to the old clan leader?"

Shiyu's words stung Fugaku, Fugaku nodded and said, "Sigh, you're right. I'm just afraid that some people in the clan will be unwilling."

Shiyu snorted coldly and said, "Since they're unwilling, then leave them here. Anyone willing to come with me to the Shinobi Village is welcome. If not, then stay in Konoha and wait to be killed by the Third Hokage and Danzo."

Shiyu naturally didn't intend to go through all the trouble of begging and pleading to get those stubborn, blockheaded fools to the Shinobi Village.

"As the clan leader, you naturally need to set an example. Take as many Uchiha as you can. If Anbu or Uchiha Jonin to stop you from leaving, I will intervene."

Shiyu was willing to serve as a guard for the Uchiha Clan because of Uchiha Shisui and Itachi. Since he had promised them, Shiyu decided to do his job well, and this was the best time to win them over.

After being persuaded by Shiyu, Fugaku Uchiha finally nodded, which was considered as agreeing to Shiyu.

"There's no time to lose. Immediately summon the high-ranking members of the Uchiha Clan and convey my message. Of course, it should be voluntary; those who want to leave can go." Shiyu entrusted the matter to Fugaku, Fugaku naturally went to carry it out immediately.

When the clan faced a life-or-death crisis, Fugaku couldn't help but take it seriously. Because Fugaku Uchiha appealed to their emotions and reasoned with them, and even took the initiative to commend them, at least half of the Uchiha were willing to follow Fugaku and leave Konoha to go to Shinobi Village to build a new life.

However, there are still some people who find it hard to give up their life in Konoha.

"Fugaku, ignore them, let them go. Set off immediately! Head north," Shiyu said.

"Father, what happened?"
