Naruto looked toward Kage Rock in the distance and slowly resumed the unfinished history of the Uchiha Clan. "Last time, I mentioned how the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, established the Uchiha Military Police Force... This served two purposes. On the surface, it expressed trust in the Uchiha Clan, granting them the duty and honor of maintaining order in the village..."
Naruto explained in detail the true intent behind placing the police force and the prison together.
It was to make it easier to monitor the Uchiha's every move, and how this policy gradually isolated them from the village's core of power, planting the seeds of suspicion and estrangement.
Before long, Naruto reached the Nine-Tails incident.
He explained how the village elders had turned their suspicions toward the Uchiha because of the rumors that the Sharingan could control tailed beasts.
This ultimately led to the Uchiha compound being forcibly relocated to the outskirts of the village, further intensifying the conflict.
He also spoke of Itachi Uchiha entering the Anbu as a double agent, as well as the truth behind Shisui Uchiha's death.
Shisui had his eye taken by Shimura Danzō, the leader of Root and one of Konoha's higher-ups.
Afterward, he gave his remaining eye to Itachi, then jumped into a river and took his own life.
And Itachi had planned to use the other Kotoamatsukami to control Sasuke's mind, making him protect Konoha.
At this point, Sasuke's body jolted. He suddenly raised his head. "So that's how it was... No wonder the Military Police Force went looking for Itachi. That was why..."
"And Itachi Uchiha... He actually wanted to use Genjutsu to control me and make me protect Konoha?"
Naruto did not pause, continuing his account of how the conflict between the Uchiha and Konoha had built to its peak.
