Shisui digs out Danzo's eye

"Let go of me!!!" Shimura Danzo was like a maddened beast, his eyes red as he struggled frantically.

But the Jonin surrounding him didn't loosen their grip. Instead, they intensified their pressure, pinning Shimura Danzo down tightly.

Unable to form hand seals and thus unable to use Izanagi, Shimura Danzo deeply regretted being captured.

Uchiha Shisui, with the surrounding Jonin ignoring him, could only yell furiously at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who stood beside him: "Hiruzen! You'll regret this! Make him stop! Stop!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe, took a breath with a complex expression, and exhaled white smoke. He seemed saddened, neither agreeing nor stopping the action, displaying his usual tacit approval.

Soon, the bandages on Shimura Danzo's right eye and right hand were removed, revealing six Sharingan. They looked Cthulhu-esque, filled with a mysterious eeriness.

Four of them had already closed their eyes.

One was used to ambush Uchiha Shisui, and the other three were inflicted by Jinghuo Uchiha.

The moment he saw these eyes, Uchiha Shisui's gaze locked onto the two pairs of Sharingan on Danzo's forearm.

In an instant, he felt as if he saw Jinghuo Uchiha's parents.

His eyes immediately turned red.

These were their eyes!

These were definitely their eyes!

"Uncle Qingfeng, Aunt Jingya..."

Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but shed tears.

He reached out, heading towards the eyes on Shimura Danzo's forearm.

This action startled the Jonin.

"Shisui..." They wanted to stop him but couldn't find the words.

Worried about eye damage? The person would have been long dead.

Worried about Danzo being harmed? They had no sympathy for someone who dug up graves.

Even Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by and quietly watched as Uchiha Shisui dug out the Sharingan, one by one, even the ones that had turned dull and gray.

Everyone turned a deaf ear to Danzo's screams and curses.

After digging out the eyes, the sorrow in Uchiha Shisui's heart was like a rootless duckweed in a surging sea, filled with loneliness.

He had retrieved Uncle Qingfeng and Aunt Jingya's eyes, but they themselves would never return.

The despairing pain was ethereal, leaving his mind blank, with no room for anyone else.

He didn't even know what he was thinking.

He was completely dazed.

He walked as if in a trance, drawn towards something.

Until... a young boy with a flat haircut gave him a slight smile.

"Brother?"

The familiar voice jolted Uchiha Shisui back to reality.

"Shizuka!"

He immediately opened his eyes. He was in a forest.

He didn't know how he got there, but he clearly saw the cloudy eyes of Jinghuo Uchiha before him.

He... he was blind...

"Shizuka... you... I... I..." Uchiha Shisui's hands trembled, tears streaming down his face, filled with heartache and regret.

If he hadn't been careless and had his eyes stolen by Shimura Danzo, how could Shizuka have gone blind!

Uncle Qingfeng and Aunt Jingya were already dead because of him, and now even Shizuka's eyes...

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Uchiha Shisui clutched Jinghuo Uchiha's clothes and wailed, crying like a child.

Jinghuo Uchiha smiled slightly.

"Brother, it's just a Sharingan. Even without eyes, I'll still be strong."

Uchiha Shisui only thought Jinghuo Uchiha was trying to comfort him.

But Jinghuo Uchiha was telling the truth.

Although the Fire Style Chakra Mode was sacrificed to enhance his Susanoo, having experienced Fire Style Chakra Mode before, it wasn't difficult for him to teach himself.

As for seeing, he could sense things by spreading his chakra. Although the world had turned gray, eyes weren't essential.

Although he hadn't succeeded in killing Danzo this time, destroying Root and retrieving Uchiha Shisui's eyes had somewhat cleared Jinghuo Uchiha's mind.

He turned his head back towards the village center, a tired smile on his face, along with a hint of ferocity.

"Next time, I'll definitely kill Danzo!" Jinghuo Uchiha set a goal for himself.

Immediately after, his mind relaxed.

After experiencing the pain of his entire body's cells tearing apart and completely exhausting his ocular power, Jinghuo Uchiha finally couldn't hold on and collapsed.

The person was filled with powerlessness and desolation.

"Shizuka!" Uchiha Shisui was panicked.

Fortunately, after an examination, he found that she had only fainted from exhaustion.

"Shizuka..." Uchiha Shisui was deeply saddened but couldn't cry.

He felt so stifled, so pained, he was about to suffocate.

In his mind, he suddenly recalled Jinghuo Uchiha's words, spoken as if in jest—"Brother, don't you want to be the Clan Head?"

He held Jinghuo Uchiha tightly. The Sharingan in his left eye became more complex and subtle as his thoughts shifted.

The moment the commotion appeared in the village center, many ninjas rushed over.

Even the Uchiha clan members who were holding a meeting wanted to rush over.

That giant, enraged red skull was far from the legendary Susanoo.

It looked like a shoddy imitation of an imitation.

But without a doubt, it was the Susanoo!

It was the Uchiha clan's Susanoo!

This excited the Uchiha clan members, and they rushed out one after another.

As the Uchiha Clan Head, Fugaku Uchiha's pupils contracted violently the first moment he saw the giant, enraged red skull.

Possessing the Mangekyo, he naturally knew the price paid for this powerful Susanoo.

This was a good opportunity for a coup.

Although it wasn't what he had imagined, things had already happened, so he should go with the flow!

The clan members cheered.

Wasn't that enraged red skull giant causing chaos in the village center also calling out to them: "Come quickly! Let's take back Konoha together!"

This was a good opportunity for a coup!

However, as they clamored to rush over, they were stopped by Uchiha Itachi and members of the Anbu.

All the Uchiha clan members felt that the Anbu members were acting normally.

But!

"Itachi! What are you doing!" Fugaku Uchiha, known by the moniker "Fierce Eyes," roared, his eyes erupting with ferocity.

The pressure on Uchiha Itachi increased greatly.

Without activating his Mangekyo, he found it difficult to even bear Fugaku Uchiha's gaze.

But he still held onto his conviction.

"Father, the one in the village center is Jinghuo Uchiha..."

Before he could finish speaking, his words were forcibly silenced by the uproar of the clan members and Fugaku Uchiha's roar.

"You're saying that Susanoo was created by Jinghuo Uchiha?"

"How is that possible!"

"He's only five years old!"

The clan members' gazes were filled with doubt as they stared intently at Uchiha Itachi.

They had already suspected Uchiha Itachi before, and now he was claiming that the legendary Uchiha Susanoo was created by a five-year-old child?

Even a lie needs to be believable!

Who would believe such an obviously false statement?

The distrust from his father and the questioning from the clan members pained Uchiha Itachi's heart, but it was much better than the first time he heard Uchiha Shisui say the Police Force sent him to monitor him.

After taking a deep breath, Uchiha Itachi continued, "Shisui has already rushed over. His objective is not a coup, but to save Jinghuo Uchiha at all costs."

Instantly, the agitated crowd fell silent.
