Several days earlier.
After the peace talks ended, Yūto immediately found Shisui patrolling the outskirts of the camp and grabbed his arm.
"Shisui! I need your help with something urgent!"
Shisui stumbled from the tug and turned in confusion.
"Yūto? What's wrong?"
Yūto glanced around and lowered his voice.
"Help me keep a close eye on Sunagakure's movements, especially what they do next."
Shisui was even more baffled.
"Haven't the two countries already made peace? Lord Danzo signed the agreement himself..."
"Bah! You trust an agreement that old bastard signed?" Yūto rolled his eyes.
"Sunagakure surrendered way too readily this time. I suspect a trap. That scheming bastard Rasa must be plotting something!"
Shisui's expression grew serious. "You're worried they'll pretend to withdraw, when they're actually preparing a surprise attack?"
"Smart!" Yūto patted Shisui's shoulder.
"That's why I need you, Body Flicker Shisui, to put your speed to work and watch them in secret."
Shisui nodded. "Understood. I'll make the arrangements right away."
Just as Shisui was about to leave, Yūto suddenly added:
"Oh, and keep a particularly close eye on Pakura."
"Pakura?" Shisui froze for a moment.
"Hasn't Sunagakure already taken her back? Why watch her specifically?"
Yūto rubbed his hands together and flashed a sly smile.
"That woman's beautiful and powerful, and she has the Scorch Release kekkei genkai. A perfect match for our Uchiha attributes!"
Shisui's eyes widened in shock.
"Yūto, you... don't tell me you've fallen for Pakura?!"
"What are you thinking?!" Yūto slapped Shisui on the back of the head.
"I'm doing this to revive the Uchiha Clan! Our clansmen are too weak right now. We need to bring in high-quality female ninja to improve our genes!"
Shisui held his head, his expression conflicted.
"So you want to... lure Pakura into marrying into the Uchiha?"
