Soon, Uchiha Itachi entered the tent.
Senju Tobirama looked at him, frowning slightly. "Itachi, how is Shisui?"
Uchiha Itachi pursed his lips and said calmly, " Shisui- nii's injuries are serious, and Lady Tsunade has taken him for treatment."
Upon hearing this, Senju Tobirama's expression became even more serious.
He knew Shisui Uchiha's strength well; the fact that he could be so badly injured showed how powerful the enemy was.
"What exactly happened? How could the Uchiha Clan have been defeated?"
Uchiha Itachi lowered his head slightly, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke.
"The other ninjas from Kirigakure are no match for my Uchiha Clan, but that Fifth Mizukage, the ' Masked Man,' is terrifyingly strong."
"My father, Shisui, Tekka, the Yashiro Hokage, and the Kyudai Hokage—five Kage Level fighters combined—were no match for him!"
"If it weren't for their desperate fight, and Brother Shisui using his Mangekyou Sharingan to buy time, we might not Yaoguang."
Upon hearing Uchiha Itachi's explanation, Senju Tobirama Senju's eyes widened in disbelief.
Because of the trump card that En left for the Uchiha Clan before he disappeared.
This resulted in the Uchiha Clan's ninjas being far stronger than other ninjas, even surpassing some of the bloodline limit ninjas.
Needless to say, those at the Kage Level are capable of taking on two or even three opponents at once.
And that Yaoguang is a secret weapon developed over the past five years by the Uchiha Research Uchiha Research Institute in conjunction with the Konoha Research Institute.
Its importance surpasses that of Kage Level being; it is something that can secure victory and serve as the foundation of one's power.
Despite their combined efforts, they were still no match for the Masked Man.
One can only imagine how terrifying that Masked Man's strength must be.
This also reminded him of Nagato, whose strength had also greatly increased. After a period of seclusion, he emerged stronger than ever before.
No matter how hard Senju Tobirama tried to figure it out, he couldn't understand what had happened in between.
Senju Tobirama took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
"Itachi, you should go and rest. We'll discuss this matter further."
Uchiha Itachi nodded, turned and left the tent.
Meanwhile, Senju Tobirama used the Flying Thunder God Technique to travel back and forth to Konoha, intending to search for answers in the piles of files.
There must be a reason for the Masked Man and Nagato's increased strength.
Before Yan disappeared, he also focused the village's attention on searching for something.
There must be some connection between these two things.
Meanwhile, at the hospital in Konoha, Tsunade was doing her best to save Shisui Uchiha.
Shisui Uchiha lay on the hospital bed, his face as pale as paper, his breath weak.
Using her superb Medical Ninjutsu, Tsunade slowly infused chakra into Shisui Uchiha's body, repairing his damaged physique.
Inside the hospital ward, it was so quiet that only the faint sound of Tsunade circulating her chakra could be heard.
Shisui Uchiha remained motionless on the hospital bed, as if sealed away by endless exhaustion and pain.
thump thump thump--
Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the silence.
Tsunade stopped what she was doing, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Come in."
Uchiha Itachi pushed open the door and entered.
His gaze immediately fell on Shisui's bloodless face, his eyes filled with worry and concern.
" Lady Tsunade Shisui, how is Shisui doing now?"
Tsunade sighed softly and said, "His injuries have stabilized, but he is still unconscious."
"He was severely injured this time, and his body suffered a tremendous impact. It's already a miracle that he survived."
Uchiha Itachi clenched his fist slightly, then slowly relaxed it, and asked.
"Is there any way to restore Brother Shisui's eyesight?"
As he spoke, a barely perceptible tremor ran through his voice.
While the Mangekyou Eye Technique is incredibly powerful, it also comes at a great cost.
Shisui's impaired vision is undoubtedly an extremely serious problem.
However, faced with Uchiha Itachi's expectant gaze, Tsunade shook her head helplessly.
"Itachi, Shisui's eyes have been damaged beyond imagination due to overuse of the Mangekyou's power."
"With the current level of Medical Ninjutsu, I have no way to restore his eyesight to its original state."
"Perhaps new research findings or methods will emerge in the future, which may change this situation, but for now..."
Although the words were left unsaid, everyone present understood their meaning.
Uchiha Itachi's eyes dimmed instantly. He stood quietly by the bed, looking at Shisui, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
The once powerful and wise Shisui brother Shisui has now fallen into such a state.
The future of the Uchiha Clan became shrouded in uncertainty due to this defeat.
After a brief silence, Uchiha Itachi bowed deeply to Tsunade.
" Lady Tsunade, thank you for your hard work. I'll take my leave now."
He straightened up, turned around, and slowly walked out of the ward.
Every step felt like it weighed a ton, and my thoughts were tangled like a jumbled mess.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Fugaku summoned all the important figures in the clan, gathering them in the spacious yet oppressively tense meeting room to discuss countermeasures.
Fugaku's face was so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water. His gaze slowly swept over everyone, and he spoke first in a low, hoarse voice.
"In this war against the Land of Lightning, although we fought desperately, we still suffered heavy losses."
" Shisui is critically injured and on the verge of death, and Yaoguang is almost destroyed. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to our Uchiha Clan, and may even be a matter of survival."
Tekka's eyes were bloodshot, as if burning with furious flames. He slammed his fist heavily on the table and roared.
"Just how strong is the Fifth Mizukage? So many people working together are no match for him!"
Yashiro frowned, his wrinkles seeming to deepen, and said with a worried expression.
"Not only in Kirigakure, but also on the Fire Rain Battlefield, Pain's strength far surpasses what it has been before."
"If this continues, both Konoha and the Uchiha Clan will be doomed."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and fell into deep thought.
Uchiha Setsuna and spoke slowly.
Before Lord Yan disappeared, he focused the village's attention on going out to search for something.
"Now it seems that the Masked Man's Nagato strength might be related to what Lord Yan is searching for."
Fugaku nodded slightly, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Yes, I went out to investigate before, and those scenes are still very strange to think about now."
"Unfortunately, only Raikage A knows what happened during the three years when Lord Yan first disappeared."
"And he has now left the Ninja World with his Genin."
Hearing this, Uchiha Setsuna slightly and said helplessly.
"Now that things have come to this, complaining won't help. We must look for clues from other angles."
Fugaku nodded in agreement.
