"Teacher..."

"Uh, sit down. Don't worry, there's no one around."

Kyohiko still couldn't quite get used to Shisui calling him "Teacher," after all, the two were only five or six years apart in age.

certainly.

If a few more years pass, Shisui is about to graduate at 12, he will be around 17, and it seems like becoming Teacher wouldn't be too far off.

Kyohiko gestured for Shisui to sit down.

It was early morning, and the lake was surrounded by flowers, trees, and shrubs, all of which became part of his vision under the influence of his Chakra.

Under the Wood-Grass Barrier, he could instantly sense anyone entering this area.

Shisui nodded gently, then sat down by the lake.

"How are things?"

Kyohiko didn't rush to inquire about the internal situation of the Uchiha.

Shisui thought for a moment and said, "I met someone named Gekko Hayate, this person..."

His story is too complicated to explain in a few words.

After some thought, I've come up with a fairly objective assessment.

"A bit odd, but very hardworking."

He recounted his past experiences.

Kyohiko's expression gradually changed.

Gekko Hayate, this art style is a bit off. If you keep going like this, this guy's going to turn into a mini -Might Guy.

but.

He could understand.

Gekko Hayate received a portion of his mother's lungs, thus gaining a healthier body, but in return, his mother lost a part of herself due to the transplant.

"Responsibility and experience can change a person. Jifeng is a very good example; I even participated in his surgery."

Kyohiko sighed.

Shisui nodded.

He chuckled softly, a hint of melancholy and shame on his face.

"Teacher, I haven't been able to win over a single member of the clan lately. I feel like they're all united, and I don't know where to start. The one most likely to succeed is actually Itachi Uchiha..."

But.

Itachi Uchiha is currently just a two- or three-year-old child.

It's absurd to expect a two- or three-year-old child to understand the conflicts and contradictions between Konoha and the Uchiha.

but...

Aside from children under three years old, most other members of the Uchiha Clan, like Uchiha Tekka, looked down on the commoners of Konoha.

He missed Obito Uchiha somewhat.

If Obito were still alive, he would at least have one comrade.

Kyohiko could tell that Shisui was filled with disappointment towards his family at this moment.

In the original timeline, when Shisui Uchiha gouged out his eyes and gave them to Itachi before jumping off the cliff, he was probably even more desperate than he is now.

certainly.

Fortunately, Shisui didn't survive, so at least we don't know what incredible things Itachi Uchiha did afterward, and no one ever Impure World Reincarnation him using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

otherwise.

Kyohiko found it hard to imagine what an astonishing feat that must have been.

Uchiha, what a bunch of sick people!

Have you noticed the Hyuga Clan today?

"The Hyuga Clan?"

Shisui shook his head blankly.

He didn't pay attention to the Hyuga Clan's affairs, and besides, that clan, like their Uchiha, had vast territory; how could outsiders possibly know what happened there?

but.

He paused for a moment to recall.

"It seems the Hyuga Clan children who attended the Ninja Academy today went home quite early."

After Shisui finished speaking, he suddenly looked up.

"Something happened to the Hyuga Clan?"

"The internal reforms are now complete. In a few days, most Jonin should hear about it. You Uchiha need to speed things up."

Kyohiko didn't elaborate, but he didn't completely hide it either.

The Hyuga Clan Hyuga Clan announce the matter themselves soon; he just needs to avoid revealing too much.

Upon hearing Shisui, Shisui's mouth dropped open.

The Hyuga Clan?

innovation?

Is it possible for these two words to be put together?

He looked at Kyohiko in disbelief, his eyes filled with doubt and a desire for confirmation, but Kyohiko nodded slightly.

Shisui looked completely bewildered.

A few seconds later, he suddenly stood up.

"I need to find the head of the family!"

"Etc."

Kyohiko called out to him.

Then he said, "Isn't someone named Inabi Uchiha the most active member of your clan behind the scenes?"

"Brother Inabi? He seems alright, but his younger brother Tekka is very active."

Shisui recalled for a moment.

Then, he frowned. "However, Brother Inabi is also the type to be rather xenophobic, and his thoughts are probably similar to theirs, just not as obvious."

"Where is their father?"

"Senior Shinji?"

Shisui thought for a long time, then shook his head. "I don't know, I don't have a very deep impression of him."

"Hmm... could you keep an eye on their family for me? You can also mention it to Fugaku- senpai. Anyway, we've been in contact, so he's probably guessed it."

Kyohiko stood up as he spoke, "If you need to contact me directly, go find Teacher. Kushina."

"Kushina- Teacher?"

After a moment of Shisui, the image of that carefree, loud-laughing woman came to mind.

She also had a relationship with the Teacher?

Oh right.

Her husband is Minato Namikaze.

Shisui nodded. "Okay."

After saying that, he quickly ran towards his family's residence.

Kyohiko didn't rush to leave, but instead observed the Uchiha's Police Force from a distance.

He suspected that Inabi and Tekka were a family, firstly because they were the villains in the original timeline, and secondly because he knew about their actions against Rin Nohara.

Young people are most easily swayed by emotions.

If there were internal strife within the Uchiha, then Inabi and Tekka would definitely be the first to be unable to keep secrets.

Kyohiko's figure disappeared.

This "he" is just Shadow Clone.

Police Force.

Shisui ran all the way back, but as he got closer, he slowed down, pretending to be running past normally, and glanced at the Police Force captain's office.

Not here.

He ran all the way back to his family, taking a longer route.

Inside the clan's territory, Fugaku Uchiha was still at the entrance, instructing Itachi Uchiha in his training.

Seeing Shisui approach, he frowned, then whispered a few words to Itachi before Gate of Opening: "Shisui, why didn't you go for a run?"

"Master, there are some techniques I don't quite understand, and I would like to ask for your guidance."

Shisui said respectfully.

Fugaku nodded. "Let's go inside."

Shisui followed him inside. Once inside, he looked around and saw that only his own family members were in Fugaku Uchiha's house; there were no outsiders.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Fugaku closed the door and said, "What's the problem?"

Have you heard about the Hyuga Clan?

"Hyuga?"

Fugaku was slightly taken aback.

He had assumed that Shisui would just repeat the same old tales about family matters, but he hadn't expected this to be different...

The Hyuga Clan.

What could they possibly want?

"The Hyuga Clan has completed its internal reforms; news should be fully released in a few days."

Shisui channel.

Fugaku's pupils contracted as he looked at Shisui, then slowly exhaled.

"Shisui, this news..."

"Um."

Shisui nodded gently.

Fugaku sank.

As the head of the Uchiha Clan, he wasn't stupid; he naturally understood what Shisui's message meant.

The Hyuga has already taken action.

And you?

Shisui asked, "Also, have Inabi and Tekka been making any unusual moves?"

"They are somewhat restless, but nothing has changed yet, so it shouldn't be time to take action."

Fugaku said.

Shisui was completely stunned; he was dumbfounded for a few seconds.

It's not the right time...

Is it only time to wait until their numbers grow so large that they're about to storm your house, Master?

He couldn't believe that Fugaku had said those words.

Fugaku said, "I plan to observe further, and then try to mediate and provide ideological education..."

"It's not too late now, Patriarch. If you wait until you've finished observing, our family will truly be finished!"

Even Shisui was in a hurry and no longer cared about respect.

He stated his position directly.

observe?

Harmony, ideological education?

It's too late!

This patriarch is really not in a hurry at all!

"..."

Fugaku hesitated for a moment.

He could disregard what Shisui had said before, since Shisui was just a child and only represented himself.

But this time...

The people lurking behind Shisui have already made their stance clear, and it seems impossible for him not to respond. But those people are all members of the Uchiha!

After a long pause, he said, "Shisui, this matter cannot be rushed!"

"Is there any rush? Patriarch!"

Let me think about it for a few more days.

Fugaku stood up. "Alright, go and train. You have to go to school soon."

"Master!!"

The sound of Shisui and the vibration was unbelievable.

He hadn't expected it.

Even with the Teacher involved, Fugaku Uchiha was still hesitant.

This guy...

How exactly did he become the head of the family?

He was completely stunned.

After being pushed out of Fugaku's house, Shisui looked at Fugaku's house, turning back every few steps, his heart filled with despair.

He realized he had overestimated Fugaku Uchiha.

With such a patriarch, how could the family not fall?

Shisui didn't notice.

The Two Tomoe had unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and walked towards the school, his mind a complete blank.

When he gradually came to his senses, Shisui swayed and almost fainted.

My head is throbbing with a splitting headache!

Shisui couldn't help but let out a painful groan and slumped down on a park bench by the roadside.

Pain!

It hurts!

Then, the Tomoe rotated, Tomoe its black color, and at the moment it solidified—

The third Tomoe appeared.

Mitsudomoe!

The pain gradually subsided.

Shisui was panting heavily, his clothes soaked with sweat.

Trembling, he drew the sword from his waist, and through the blade, he could vaguely see the condition of his own eyes.

A pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Although it wasn't the Mangekyō Sharingan, Shisui was definitely the first person to awaken the Mitsudomoe at that age, and that was all thanks to Fugaku Uchiha.

Ever since he met Fugaku Uchiha, the young Shisui felt like his blood pressure was skyrocketing.

Especially today, it almost overflowed.

Shisui exhaled and leaned back in his chair.

Activating the Mitsudomoe didn't bring him much joy.

The family's situation is already very bad.

Our strength is still not enough!

but.

Strength is relative.

Compared to elite Jonin, he was indeed not strong enough or mature enough, but compared to those not much older, Shisui was confident he could defeat them.

"Brother Inabi..."

Shisui's eyes turned fierce.

During this time, he has been reading books on assassination techniques, learning the moves and skills contained therein.

at the same time.

He also completely mastered and absorbed the Konoha Style: Willow taught by Kyohiko.

Now, he has awakened the Mitsudomoe...

Once one's mental and physical condition stabilizes further, one's strength will definitely reach a new level.

"If you actually stand on the other side and become the leader, even if it's you, I will kill you with my own hands!"

Shisui's resolve was unwavering.

He knew why he was fighting!

The current situation in the Shinobi World is settled; Konoha's momentum is unstoppable. Even if Madara Uchiha truly exists, given the methods he used against Obito Uchiha, Shisui doesn't believe he's a good person.

Eternal peace—such absolute descriptions seem like a deception no matter how you look at them.

If such methods truly existed, why doesn't Madara himself use them?

Dead?

If he dies, the current "Sand" is not the real Sand, unless the other party can be brought back to life.

Obito was definitely tricked!

so.

The more the other party wants something, the more Shisui tries to stop them.

The matter Hyuga Clan did not cause a widespread stir in Konoha.

but.

Two days.

This news quickly reached the top echelons of various families.

because...

Several members of the Hyuga Clan have died, and a large funeral has been held for the past two days. Most of those involved were members of the Main House, and when the remaining Main House reappeared, they were all wearing Forehead Protector.

This is something that usually happens when Branch House separates.

Everyone here isn't stupid; they can naturally guess what happened.

The Hyuga Main House has changed!

As a large clan with a history spanning hundreds of years, the Hyuga Clan has always been stable, and the system of Main House and Branch House has always been a source of pride for them.

But no one expected this.

Hiashi has such audacity to change the Main House's system, and even raise a sword against his own clansmen for it!

If we're talking about who was the most shocking, it would undoubtedly be Fugaku Uchiha.

He had heard from Shisui that the Hyuga Clan was planning something big, but he never expected that the Uchiha Clan, already in dire straits, would act first Hyuga Clan.

This is a truly bloody revolution!

Based on the situation in the past few days, there have been seven funerals alone, all of whom were members of the Main House. Adding those who became Branch House, Hyuga Hiashi's slash has almost wiped out more than half of the Main House.

"Kill..."

"The Uchiha are different!"

Fugaku sighed.

Currently, there is widespread anti- Konoha sentiment within the Uchiha. Although he has tried his best to maintain stability and persuade and educate people, the results have been minimal.

Logically speaking, killing some of them would be the simplest solution.

But.

What if it causes a large-scale internal conflict?

The Uchiha in the past was not without examples of internal strife.

at the same time.

Shinji Uchiha went back to the basement.

"Sir, something has happened!"

"What's the panic? What happened?"

Jue awakens from its silence.

To avoid being discovered by Kyohiko, he remained largely silent when not in action, and was therefore completely unaware of the situation outside.

Shinji Uchiha quickly explained the situation outside.

"Hiashi of the Hyuga Clan has killed many members of the Main House and seems to be reforming the Main House system. This will definitely affect Fugaku Uchiha!"

"Although this person is indecisive, given the right external stimuli, he might..."

A look of terror flashed in Shinji Uchiha's eyes.

He felt as if a knife was hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment.

Black Zetsu felt contempt.

With that kind of audacity, you think you can accomplish great things?

Madara was absolutely right; after all these years, the Uchiha still consists mostly of idiots.

but.

On the surface, he simply said calmly, "Don't worry, your patriarch won't take any action. Just do what you need to do and have your two sons mobilize as many members of the clan as possible."

"Also, do you remember what I taught you?"

Black Zetsu looked at the other person.

Shinji Uchiha nodded.

"Of course, I've already located the exact location of the Nine-Tails. Part of it is inside Kushina Uzumaki, and another part is at Minato Namikaze's house."

"At home?"

Black Zetsu was somewhat surprised.

Did they release a portion of the Nine-Tails?

It was unexpected.

However, Black Zetsu quickly understood Konoha's intention in doing so.

"I see. They split the Nine-Tails in two to maximize Nine-Tails power. But this is a good thing for us because it has Summoning Contract that I placed on it."

"This power can be used by you!"
