No Tsukuyomi, War Never Ceases!

The Police Force post.

Fugaku Uchiha stood beneath the insignia, looking up at the Police Force's emblem depicting a "Gunbai," and remained silent for a long time.

"Master of the family..."

"It's Shisui."

Fugaku bowed his head.

Shisui Uchiha stood to the side, following his gaze to the emblem above.

Didn't you go to class today?

"No, I took the day off."

Shisui replied.

The Uchiha incident had a significant impact, and he was worried that problems might arise within the clan.

On the other hand, his "White Zetsu Cells" had been stable before, but there was no guarantee that nothing unexpected might happen.

certainly.

And there's another, most important reason...

The things at school right now aren't really that difficult.

With the Sharingan's abilities, coupled with Shisui's strong learning ability and theoretical foundation, he was able to master most of the Ninjutsu taught at the academy in a very short time.

In swordsmanship and Taijutsu, the Uchiha is equally formidable.

He is currently considering further study of Sealing Technique.

The Uchiha Clan's knowledge in this area is not as strong as Kushina Uzumaki's.

Shisui withdrew his gaze and thoughts.

"Master, have the village's punishments been announced?"

"Punish?"

Fugaku paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "I suppose so."

He pointed towards the lake.

Let's walk that way.

Now, Fugaku no longer sees Shisui as a child.

This child has the potential to become the "Kyohiko Yoshimine" of their Uchiha Clan, possessing the same top-tier talent and intellect, and has already become Kyohiko's disciple.

Furthermore, Shisui's performance last night can be said to have saved his wife and son.

Fugaku took a few steps, keeping a distance from the Police Force, before saying, "Clan members who participated in the rebellion are no longer permitted to participate in the Military Police Force's work."

This was within the expectations of the Shisui project.

But soon, he realized...

Wrong!

Those who participated before are unable to participate again. So, what will happen to the Police Force's manpower?

He looked at Fugaku.

Fugaku nodded slightly.

"Yes, there will be a reorganization, but the captains will still be ours. The remaining teams can also belong to the Uchiha, but the rest will be divided up by the village ninja through election."

"So that's how it is..."

Shisui murmured to himself.

The Police Force was reorganized.

Shocking news, yet upon closer examination, not entirely unexpected.

The Uchiha Clan's internal strife will inevitably result in heavy losses, but this outcome is not considered a crippling blow.

Fugaku's lips curled into a slight smile.

"However, in the future, the captain of our Police Force will also be able to participate in meeting decision-making."

Although they were only allowed to "participate," in the past, the Uchiha rarely received such privileges.

Upon hearing Shisui, Shisui's mind raced, and a bright smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Very good!"

"Oh? You think it's a good thing?"

"Of course, those idiots in the clan don't do a good job in the Police Force and are always offending others. They're just a burden to us Uchiha..."

Shisui spoke eloquently and fluently.

Police Force.

According to the Teacher, what seemed sweet was actually a trap for the Uchiha.

because...

The Uchiha's personality made it impossible for them to handle conflicts with the villagers, and their stubborn and proud clan traits prevented them from relinquishing such power, creating a vicious cycle.

Abandoning the Police Force is actually a good thing.

not to mention.

Now, Konoha has still preserved their power, their public status, and --

An opportunity to enter the decision-making level.

The remaining formations were allowed to remain under their command, which was also a reward for those close to Konoha.

At least for now, there's nothing wrong with the Shisui.

This result...

For the Uchiha, this seems to be the most perfect!

Fugaku remained noncommittal.

His personal opinion was the same as Shisui's, but the rest of the family might not think so.

After all, the benefits Kyohiko offered were not immediately visible, while what he took away were tangible and visible advantages.

Fortunately, the remaining people were all his clansmen who had supported Kagami Uchiha back then.

These people shared the same ideals as Fugaku and Shisui.

His resolve hardened.

"I see."

The following day, Fugaku went to Konoha again for a meeting.

This time, there were no other clan heads present, only Tsunade and him. Their discussion focused more on the reorganization of the Police Force and the future arrangements for the Uchiha rebels remaining within the clan.

Surveillance and forced labor.

This step is essential.

The so-called "reform through labor" certainly didn't mean making them operate sewing machines.

Those who participated in the rebellion but surrendered to Fugaku and his men were definitely of elite caliber.

It would be a terrible waste to have such a talented group of people working on sewing machines and doing manual labor.

"Lord Hokage, this... please be lenient with the punishment."

Fugaku couldn't help but plead for mercy.

Tsunade smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not a serious punishment. There are two main options: one is to help train the Guardian Ninja, and the other is to participate in Konoha's future ninja recruitment plan. However, you won't be paid, and your people will be subject to supervision."

"No problem."

Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

That's all...

That would be the best possible outcome.

Leaving the Hokage Office, he knew he had to reveal the existence of the Police Force to his clan.

Restructuring is imperative.

and.

The Uchiha Clan is indeed not suited for this kind of coordination work.

He made his way back to the Police Force.

For the past two days, the clansmen who committed the offense have been detained in the Police Force's prison.

Fugaku instructed Yashiro Uchiha to release the people.

A crowd of about a hundred people had gathered in the audience.

"Due to internal strife within our family, the Police Force is severely understaffed, so we will have to redeploy personnel. However, we will remain the captains of the Police Force, and those who did not participate in the rebellion will retain their positions..."

Fugaku returned to the Police Force and announced the results of Konoha to his clan.

Below, the participants from last night remained silent.

Fugaku looked at them.

"For the foreseeable future, you will be subject to surveillance and jurisdiction, and you have two options to atone for your crimes: one is..."

He repeated Tsunade's two tasks.

The offending ninjas exchanged glances, feeling a surge of resentment and helplessness, but none of them felt they had done anything wrong.

Fugaku's eyes gradually turned fierce.

"You've dragged your clan down, and you still think you're not wrong? Do you want to end up like Inabi Uchiha and Tekka?"

"..."

These people lowered their heads.

Yashiro Uchiha sighed inwardly.

These people are so foolish!

It's one thing if you didn't understand it before, but now you still think you can do things without being punished?

No wonder Konoha is keeping them under surveillance.

Yashiro Uchiha looked at these people with icy eyes. "If you still hold onto your past views, then even if you are clansmen, we will not hesitate to send you to the Anbu!"

"Lest you harm our own people again!"

Yashiro Uchiha's tone was icy, yet tinged with barely concealed anger.

His words...

This is a sentiment shared by many people.

As Fugaku said, the family's loss was inextricably linked to them.

even.

Last night, Mikoto and Itachi were almost captured and killed by them.

"Master, Yashiro Uchiha, we know we were wrong."

"Then do as I say, be an honest person from now on, help the other people in Konoha, and don't think you're so great!"

A cold glint flashed in Fugaku's eyes.

"Rebel? Do you even have the strength?"

"But, Master, you and Shisui both possess great strength and talent, so why...?"

Someone was speaking in a low voice.

Fugaku smiled and asked in return, "Does Madara consider you all one of his own?"

The other person opened their mouth, but was unable to refute it.

"He never truly appeared from beginning to end, and Obito Uchiha even had the Nine-Tails aimed at our clan!"

"Idiot!"

"Only you would believe that Madara has truly let go of the past."

Fugaku sneered.

He never believed that Madara would truly help the Uchiha after leaving.

This was true in the past, and it is true now.

After all, it was their family that betrayed them back then, so not coming back to stab them in the back was already considered magnanimous.

These bad apples must not be allowed to live, otherwise the rest will also be slowly infected.

The die-hards...

"Now--"

Fugaku closed his eyes as he spoke, then Awakening abruptly.

Strange patterns appeared in his pupils, and as his eyes rotated, everyone was plunged into a state of confusion.

Genjutsu!

Wide-ranging Genjutsu!

Within the Genjutsu, time was drastically slowed down, and various experiences unfolded. However, the Madara Uchiha they had been expecting did not arrive; instead...

Exterminate the entire clan!

The Genjutsu is Fugaku's deduction, not a prediction of the future, but through the power of his Dōjutsu, he can display his thoughts at will and immerse them in it.

even--

A moment later, a person struggled violently and cried out in pain, then the sound stopped abruptly and the person slowly collapsed.

He died.

He died in the illusion.

Then came the second person, the third person...

A tear of blood rolled down Fugaku's cheek.

These are all his people!

but.

Kill!

Fugaku covered his left eye, blood trickling down his cheek.

"Fugaku!"

Yashiro Uchiha rushed over quickly.

Fugaku waved his hand.

I'm fine!

"But--"

"Drag him away. It's better for him to die at the hands of his own people than..."

Fugaku sighed softly and dispelled the Genjutsu.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "This technique won't actually kill you; it will only let you see... the future as you see it!"

The name of this technique Bishamonten.

A symbol of boundless wisdom.

Fugaku desperately wanted these foolish clansmen to understand that Madara was no good person, and that Konoha's strength meant they couldn't afford the consequences of betrayal and defeat.

The other eye...

That is Amaterasu, which represents destruction.

so.

Last night, after discovering that Yoshinori had attacked his house, he awakened these two techniques...

pity.

Ultimately, none of them were used, but they were used today.

Fugaku covered his eyes, enduring the pain. "Do you still believe that the Uchiha can have a future by betraying and following Madara Uchiha?"

The true diehards have already succumbed to madness in the Genjutsu.

Endless madness and extreme emotions drove them to fight each other in a world of Genjutsu, until finally, their spirits were exhausted and they met their true death.

And now.

Among the remaining people, fear of this outcome and its trajectory had taken hold, and their resolve was wavering.

They shook their heads.

rebel?

Fugaku's Dōjutsu completely brought them to their senses.

Fugaku and Shisui's awakened eyes were already this powerful; one can only imagine Madara Uchiha's strength, yet he did not appear.

Obito even used the power of the Tailed Beast to fight them.

All signs indicate that Madara was not sincerely accepting them; they were deceived by Madara Uchiha and Shinji Uchiha!

"Master, we are willing to accept punishment!"

"Master..."

A series of voices rang out.

They were truly afraid of such a future.

Fugaku quietly let out a breath.

That's fine too!

By weeding out a group of people, at least the family can be preserved.

He covered his eyes and couldn't help but gasp.

This power is immense, but the cost is also enormous. Fugaku had a feeling that he couldn't use it too often, otherwise there might be unforeseen consequences.

And then I think back to the night Shisui was taken away...

"Does Kyohiko have a solution?"

Fugaku thought to himself.

but.

The next moment, he couldn't help but hesitate.

With Shisui already possessing the Mangekyo, would it be inappropriate for another Mangekyō Sharingan user like myself to appear?

After a brief hesitation, Fugaku cleared his mind of distractions.

Overthinking is pointless!

The Uchiha, apart from the two Mangekyo, is now extremely weak.

But at the same time.

This is also a significant turning point.

If they can seize the opportunity now, the Uchiha Clan might be able to bounce back and truly stand as the number one clan in Konoha, letting the Shinobi World see the power of the Uchiha!

He wiped the blood off his face with a cloth.

"Yashiro Uchiha, I'm leaving this to you. Let the clansmen return to their ancestral home to cultivate in peace. Make sure the Police Force are properly arranged here; people from the village should be arriving soon."

"Please rest assured, I will handle it well."

The Yashiro Uchiha bowed respectfully.

Fugaku thought for a moment and added, "Today, I'll trouble you to stay here to avoid any accidents. I'll switch shifts with you tomorrow."

"Clear."

The Yashiro Uchiha is very clear.

He and Fugaku were among the more powerful, authoritative, and easy-going members of the remaining family.

If it were someone else, they might have clashed with other families, which would have made things look bad.

Inside the dark cave, Madara Uchiha sat in a chair, listening quietly to the unfolding events.

Black Zetsu led White Zetsu away.

But Obito is still here.

After hearing Obito's account, Madara unusually refrained from scolding him.

He remained silent for a long time before saying, "The eyes of the Uchiha Clan require extreme emotions to Awakening, and this process is inherently painful."

"Then you..."

He wiped away his tears with Obito.

"Back in the day, the era I lived in, along with Hashirama Senju's, was far more brutal. Our various clans slaughtered and fought each other, and even children were forced to fight on the battlefield..."

Ban recalled the past, a look of sorrow and pain appearing on his face.

Awakening.

This is a past he doesn't want to recall.

However.

Obito's pain stirred up his own past.

Ban slowly recounted his past experiences.

Obito blinked, but dared not interrupt Madara's recollection.

Only after the other party finished speaking did he realize that the system of the ninja village was an attempt by Hashirama Senju Madara Uchiha to explore a path to peace.

However.

In retrospect, this system of ninja villages was not true peace.

It only delayed the war, but it also made it larger and more terrible.

"So..."

"Where there is desire, there will be conflict; where there is conflict, there will be war."

"War will never end, and peace will never come."

"But the illusory Tsukuyomi World is possible!"
