Fugaku rubbed his head with his left hand and waved Raimei off with his right, telling him to hurry and notify everyone.
Before long.
Everyone who was supposed to attend the meeting in the clan compound's conference room had arrived.
They were all still bewildered.
Why had another meeting suddenly been called, and in such a hurry?
Fugaku wasted no words.
He explained the reason for the meeting to everyone present as briefly and concisely as possible.
Then, the conference room... fell utterly silent!!!
"Am I under genjutsu? Or am I hearing things?"
The fifth elder, Uchiha Izumi Lin, reacted exactly as Fugaku had earlier.
The others also looked expectantly at Fugaku.
"You're not under genjutsu, and you're not hearing things. The Land of Fire's daimyo and Asuma Sarutobi are both dead. However, the Land of Fire's daimyo was killed by mistake."
At this point, did it even matter whether he had been killed by mistake?
Everything else was manageable.
Only the Land of Fire's daimyo and Asuma Sarutobi posed a bit of a problem.
"Then let's prepare to fight. We Uchiha fear no one.
We can die, but we cannot lose the Uchiha's fighting spirit. We cannot let the Uchiha's glory dim in our hands!!!"
No one had expected Shisui to be the first to react at a time like this.
Meanwhile, Hikari and Itachi also nodded in agreement with Shisui.
Having spent so much time with Seiichi, Shisui and Itachi were less conservative in their thinking than the others present.
The daimyo was just a figurehead. If he was dead, he was dead.
As for Hikari, it was because she had always been raised as a weapon.
For her to care about someone, they either had to earn her personal recognition.
Or their strength had to catch her
