Uchiha Moves Back to the Clan Land

After Uchiha joined the Root, the two of them seemed to disappear.

They were rarely seen, as if deliberately avoiding the Uchiha Clan.

But now they stood before him openly...

"Do they want to sell out the Uchiha?" Uchiha Shisui immediately thought of this.

With the idea in mind, he felt even less rushed. He calmly looked at the three people before him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two thought Uchiha Shisui would proactively ask why they had called him for a private meeting.

But they didn't expect that after half a minute, Uchiha Shisui hadn't said a word.

This made them somewhat annoyed by the awkwardness.

"It seems the Uchiha Clan has truly changed!" they thought, solidifying their definition of the Uchiha Clan as enemies Konoha needed to eliminate.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu's expressions were slightly grim. Root had no intention of speaking.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a kind and amiable smile and said to Uchiha Shisui, "Shisui, the village wronged the Uchiha Clan back then, forcing the Uchiha to move out of the Village Center. Now that we know the misunderstanding, we have specially reorganized and tidied up the Village Center, returning it to the Uchiha Clan Land. In a few days, the Uchiha Clan can move back."

Uchiha Shisui was slightly stunned, a flicker of surprise flashing across his face, and he became much brighter.

"What does the Uchiha Clan need to pay?"

The Uchiha's relocation to the edge of the village, far from the central meeting area, was a humiliation in the hearts of the Uchiha Clan.

Now that they could return, even if it cost something, Uchiha Shisui was willing.

Seeing Uchiha Shisui like this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's smile became even brighter.

Even Utatane Koharu, who had been displeased and unwilling to speak at first, showed a smile and said, "This is what we should do."

Mitokado Homura also smiled and said, "The Uchiha Clan is now Konoha's main combat strength, so they can't stay on the village's edge anymore."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "Where the leaves dance, a fire will burn on. The Uchiha Clan has been wronged these years."

If it were the old Uchiha Shisui, he would have been moved, thinking how fortunate it was to have a Hokage like Sarutobi Hiruzen, and would have been willing to die for him.

But now, he only felt calm.

"Then thank you, Lord Hokage."

Uchiha Shisui's reaction made Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura's faces darken slightly.

In their imagination, Uchiha Shisui should have been overwhelmed with gratitude and eager to return to the village's embrace.

Why was he so calm?

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression, however, was very calm.

He even had a mysterious air of being in control of everything.

Uchiha Shisui returned to the village.

Although he appeared calm in the meeting room, he couldn't wait to spread the news throughout the entire Uchiha Clan Land.

When the clan members heard it, they were all in disbelief.

"The Uchiha can go back?"

"Is it true or false?"

"It's definitely true if Shisui brought the news!"

"That's great!"

"But why are they giving it back to us so suddenly?"

"Could it be because Shizuka gave the Hyuga Clan's compensation to Sarutobi Hiruzen?"

"It's possible."

"Hahahaha! They're scared!"

"We must not return until we're drunk tonight!"

"Definitely!"

"Hahahaha!"

When the news that "the Uchiha were moving back to the Village Center Clan Land" spread throughout the Uchiha and was about to be leaked outside, Uchiha Jinghuo, who had been training his physical body, finally learned of this matter.

Looking at the faces of the clan members, who were smiling like chrysanthemums, his dead fish eyes were filled with annoyance.

In his mind, the system appeared.

Uchiha Shisui came looking for Jinghuo Uchiha, a smile on his face, wanting to share the good news that the Uchiha Clan was moving back to their old clan lands.

But upon seeing Jinghuo Uchiha's grim expression, the smile on his face froze.

He felt a sense of nervousness, like he'd done something wrong and then voluntarily appeared before his teacher, an inexplicable unease.

However, he quickly dismissed it.

"Jinghuo, what's wrong?" Uchiha Shisui walked over and asked.

Jinghuo Uchiha looked at the clan members beside him, arm in arm and already drinking to celebrate, his gaze shifting uncertainly. "Do you think there are too many idiots in the Uchiha Clan?"

"(⊙o⊙)...What do you mean?"

"Better to face a divine opponent than a pig teammate."

Uchiha Shisui understood even less.

Jinghuo Uchiha turned, and irregular cracks like finger cracks appeared in his eyes, his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan bloodthirsty and deep, like an abyss from hell.

Uchiha Shisui's heart skipped a beat, not understanding why Jinghuo Uchiha's emotions were fluctuating so greatly.

Immediately after, he heard Jinghuo Uchiha ask, "Brother, will you always stand behind me?"

"Of course!" Uchiha Shisui's answer was very firm.

"Then let those fools who want to move back go. Those who stay will form their own branch." Jinghuo Uchiha's words were calm.

But Uchiha Shisui was shocked.

"Jing... Jinghuo, why... why are you suddenly..."

His mind was a mess.

Why were moving back to the clan lands considered foolish?

Why did Jinghuo want to split the Uchiha?

Why did he say there were too many idiots in the Uchiha Clan?

Many questions popped up at once.

But they all led back to one source: the news he had brought – moving back to the clan lands.

The word "fool" instantly felt like it was aimed at him, making him deeply confused.

He looked at Jinghuo Uchiha and asked with sincere confusion, "Jinghuo, isn't moving back to the clan lands a good thing?"

"How did we Uchiha move here back then? Was it voluntary?" Jinghuo Uchiha retorted.

"Of course it wasn't voluntary," Uchiha Shisui replied.

Back then, if Fugaku Uchiha hadn't pressured them, the clan members wouldn't have moved at all.

"So, moving back now with Hiruzen Sarutobi's permission, is that really something to be so happy about?"

Jinghuo Uchiha's words made Uchiha Shisui, who had been happy about moving back to the clan lands, suddenly become dazed and indignant.

It was as if he saw himself happily living at home, only to be suddenly kicked out. A few years later, the other party told him he could come back, so he happily returned.

Wasn't that pathetic!

Letting the Uchiha move back to the clan lands seemed like the Hokage was backing down, but in reality, it was the Uchiha who were backing down!

As soon as he realized this, his eyes widened.

That old schemer actually set a trap for me!

Hiruzen Sarutobi's image in his mind further crumbled.

Uchiha Shisui thought that was all, but Jinghuo Uchiha said, "That's just one part of it."

"There are other reasons?!" Uchiha Shisui felt a chill run down his spine, unwilling to believe it.

Jinghuo Uchiha smiled.

"Lately, the Konoha clans haven't been as steadfastly supporting Hiruzen Sarutobi as before, have they?" Jinghuo Uchiha said the question like a statement, which was incredibly sharp and mocking.

But Uchiha Shisui sensed the underlying meaning in his words, and his heart sank.
