Guarding Against Certain Undying Old Fossils Within the Clan
Yun Yan's theory completely baffled Uchiha Fugaku and Itachi Uchiha. After understanding this paradoxical flaw, Itachi Uchiha tentatively asked Yun Yan:
"So..."
Yun Yan interrupted him rather rudely, saying almost without any politeness:
"Therefore, I cannot gamble on the possibility of this paradox being true, and I must eliminate any possibility of Uchiha Shisui being Impure World Reincarnation. That is why I burned his body directly into charcoal."
Itachi Uchiha, do you understand?
Itachi Uchiha nodded vigorously. He couldn't care less about anything else right now, let alone feel sorry for Uchiha Shisui. He only felt that Yun Yan had done the right thing.
Seeing that Itachi Uchiha had finally understood, Yun Yan's expression softened. He pointed to the charred corpse at the bottom of the crater beside him and said to Itachi Uchiha:
"Alright, I'm not the kind of person who's ruthless and leaves no room for mercy. I just don't want to leave any potential problems behind."
Uchiha Shisui definitely dead, and his body will be burned to a crisp. But you can bury that charred body; as for where to bury it..."
Speaking of this, Yun Yan couldn't help but glance at Uchiha Fugaku Itachi Uchiha:
"Does someone like Uchiha Shisui, who betrayed his own people, deserve to be buried in the Uchiha Clan's cemetery?"
Upon hearing Uchiha Fugaku shook his head almost without hesitation, indicating that there was absolutely no possibility of such a traitor being buried in the family cemetery.
Seeing his father's reaction, Itachi Uchiha's expression hardened. He couldn't help but look at the charred corpse at the bottom of the pit, and then at the expressions of the clansmen around him.
Judging from the expressions and demeanor of the clansmen around him, Itachi Uchiha immediately realized that this matter could not be changed.
Even if his own father agreed, so many clansmen would not agree to Shisui be buried in the family cemetery.
Alas, who told Brother Shui to remain so stubbornly ignorant and unenlightened until his death?
This is no one else's fault but theirs. If Brother Shisui doesn't treat the clan as a clan, why should the clan members treat Brother Shisui as a clan member? It's the same principle!
Since Shisui couldn't be buried in the Uchiha Clan's cemetery, Itachi Uchiha began to ponder again: where should Shisui be buried?
Bury Shisui in the Konoha cemetery? Right next to the Memorial Stone?
At first glance, it does sound quite appealing; it seems like Shisui should indeed be buried there. But upon closer inspection, something doesn't seem quite right. Does Shisui really deserve to be buried there?
After pondering for a long time with a troubled and subtle expression, Itachi Uchiha finally made a decision.
First, simply collect Brother Shisui's body, then place it in an urn, and then consider where to bury him.
Given the current situation, there's definitely no place for Shisui in the family cemetery, and the situation isn't certain about the Memorial Stone in Konoha either.
If neither of these two places can accommodate Brother Shisui, then I'll just have to find somewhere else to bury Shisui.
Thinking of this, Itachi Uchiha sighed deeply and helplessly. Then, in full view of everyone, he jumped into the deep pit and began to collect Uchiha Shisui's charred body.
The corpse, completely charred, was indeed difficult to preserve; it would crumble at the slightest touch, turning into dust, making it very hard to collect.
But regardless, Itachi Uchiha and Uchiha Shisui had a pretty good relationship before they died... or rather, before that. Now, no one in Konoha is there to collect Uchiha Shisui, so it can only be Itachi Uchiha who does it.
Seeing that even the collection of bodies has begun, it means that this incident has been completely settled, and there's nothing left to dwell on.
Then, Yun Yan looked at Uchiha Fugaku and said to him with a rather calm expression:
"I say, Chieftain, let's leave it at that for today. Let's call this matter completely over."
Although it caused quite a commotion, thankfully no one was injured except for Uchiha Shisui. Overall, it was a close call, so let's leave it at that for today. Does the clan leader have any objections?"
Hearing Yun Yan's Yun Yan and seeing his current state, Uchiha Fugaku was practically rolling his Byakugan inwardly, but on the surface, he could only nod steadily and say:
"Yes, I understand."
That's the end of this matter for today. I will handle all the follow-up issues and troubles for you without disturbing your normal life, so you can rest assured.
Upon hearing this, especially the assurance that it wouldn't disrupt his normal life, Yun Yan immediately gave Uchiha Fugaku a thumbs-up with delight:
"As expected of the clan leader! He truly understands me!"
Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but roll his eyes discreetly. He thought to himself, "Do I really understand you? I just have to understand you, I have to understand your lazy nature."
At this point, Yun Yan beamed with joy.
He looked around, approached Uchiha Fugaku, and couldn't help but give him a few more words of advice:
"Oh, right, there are two more small matters that need the clan leader's attention."
First, there are my neighbors' houses, especially that neighbor's house..."
As he spoke, Yun Yan pointed to the house that the green Susanoo just smashed and destroyed:
"I would appreciate it if the clan could help me pay for the damage to these houses and such."
After all, the reason things have turned out this way today is ultimately for the sake of the Uchiha Clan's stability.
Therefore, the clan must pay for the aftermath; I don't have that kind of money to repair other people's houses."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but feel a lot of black lines appear on his forehead, but he still nodded seriously and agreed to the matter:
"No problem, it's just repairing a few houses. The clan's finances can easily cover it, so don't worry about it."
After being agreed to this, Yun Yan quickly moved on to the second point:
"And then there are those annoying old, geezy elders in the clan."
To be honest, I hate these old, disrespectful, and decadent bastards who should have been eliminated long ago, second only to the elders of Konoha in how much I hate them.
This incident has caused quite a stir. After it's over, my reputation will definitely rise within the Uchiha Clan, and people will gradually become aware of my strength.
But sometimes having too much fame isn't a good thing. Too much fame can bring trouble, something I'm sure you, Chief, understand all too well.
Therefore, afterwards, I don't want any disrespectful old bastard pointing fingers at me. If such a thing really happens, I don't mind taking the initiative to clean up the family's internal affairs."
When the matter was brought up again, especially when the old, corrupt, and stubborn members of the family were mentioned, Yun Yan's expression turned cold, and his aura became stern and terrifying.
Infected by the atmosphere and momentum, Uchiha Fugaku's expression also turned cold, and he now looked very serious.
As the head of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fugaku knew all too well what kind of people the elders in his clan were.
The elders are very likely to do the very things that Yun Yan predicted they would interfere with.
Not only are they capable of doing these things, but they are also capable of doing even worse.
Because these old fogies and seniles are essentially the best representatives of those in the clan who are arrogant and have high aspirations but low abilities. In fact, it is this group of people who always want to stage a coup and fight for power!
Thinking of those troublesome old guys, and how they had essentially become a cancer on the Uchiha Clan in the current situation, and then thinking of Yun Yan's terrifying strength and unstable personality, Uchiha Fugaku's head throbbed even more, and he felt a little panicked.
After pondering for a while, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly became determined. He looked firmly at Yun Yan and said to him:
"Don't worry, those elders will never interfere with you. I will completely prevent such things from happening, and I will stop them completely."
Moreover, the current situation in Konoha, the situation of our Uchiha Clan, and especially the relationship between the Uchiha Clan and Konoha, is extremely delicate.
At this critical moment, I absolutely will not allow anyone to cause trouble or disrupt the situation, as that would harm our Uchiha Clan.
Therefore, I've decided that if anyone fails to act decisively in such a crucial situation, I will act swiftly and decisively to deal with any unstable elements within the family!
Hearing this, and seeing Uchiha Fugaku's resolute expression, Yun Yan suddenly looked at this guy with new respect:
"Oh? The clan chief has such courage?"
Faced with Yun Yan's skeptical gaze, Uchiha Fugaku nodded vigorously, demonstrating his resolve.
However, Yun Yan still looked suspicious and continued to ask:
"Could the clan chief really bring himself to do it?"
