" Mikoto - Uchiha are part of Konoha. How could Konoha's future be without the Uchiha?"
This answer clearly did not satisfy Uchiha Mikoto's demands. She continued to press:
"I'm not talking about Konoha, I'm talking about you personally. Will you treat the Uchiha differently?"
" Mikoto, my friend is Uchiha." Shinsei's eyes revealed a pair of purplish-red Sharingan, the black Tomoe so conspicuous. "And I'm practically a half -Uchiha too."
Uchiha Mikoto stared directly at Shinsei's Sharingan: "Your eyes... seem a little different?"
Shinsei deactivated his Sharingan, not intending to discuss the matter with her, and instead continued speaking to Sasuke, "Your master seems dissatisfied with the current address. Do you have any thoughts on this?"
Sasuke shook his head. He'd lived in this place since he could remember, and over the years he was used to it. "I don't know. Shinsei, Uchiha Clan you have any suggestions?"
" Sasuke, we're friends, and I don't want to hide anything from you. I believe you've also noticed that there's a certain distance between the Uchiha Clan and Konoha."
The Uchiha Clan identifies more strongly with their Uchiha identity than with their identity as ninjas of Konoha.
You even have your own clan rules, which are difficult for even the Hokage to intervene in. This is one of the reasons why the Uchiha are isolated. Have you ever thought about changing this?
Sasuke's eyes showed confusion. His greatest wish had been to kill that man, and now that he had achieved that goal, he wanted to rebuild the Uchiha.
However, the problem Shinsei mentioned does exist. If left unchecked, the Uchiha will remain the same Uchiha in the long run.
Having brought his Uchiha master from another world, must he repeat the same mistakes?
He looked at Shinsei and asked earnestly, "Do you have any suggestions?"
Before offering his advice, Shinsei asked, "I'd like to ask, do you want the Uchiha Clan to grow stronger and eventually surpass Konoha?"
Sasuke shook his head. Although he was proud of his Uchiha identity, he did not believe that the Uchiha should be superior to other ninja clans.
All he wanted was an equal and harmonious environment so that the Uchiha Clan could continue to exist.
Shinsei understood; looking at Sasuke's expression, he instantly knew what he was thinking.
"You should know that I don't have my own surname, but my original family belonged to the Senju Clan, right?"
Sasuke nodded. "I know." Shinsei's bloodline is no secret; his level of genius seems to make sense within the Senju Clan.
Even within the Senju Clan, it's rare to find such a genius.
Thinking of this, Sasuke raised his head, looked into Shinsei's eyes, and asked seriously, "Do you want the Uchiha to give up their surname as well?"
This time it was Shinsei's turn to shake his head. "Given the pride of the Uchiha Clan, it's difficult to make them give up their surname. Back then, the Senju Clan was only able to push this through thanks to Lord Hashirama's immense prestige."
My suggestion is not to abandon my surname, but to learn how to integrate into Konoha.
The Uchiha Clan's affairs were not unusual in my previous life. In the south of China, the clans were equally powerful.
In the past, people banded together for mutual support and to resist outsiders. They even had their own clan rules, which could determine life and death.
Later, this clan power gradually disappeared, not only due to economic development, but also due to policy support.
Shinsei dipped his finger in the tea and drew a simple map of Konoha on the table, then said to the two of them:
"Look, there isn't much land left in the center of Konoha. It's not realistic to expect everyone to make room for it."
However, if the Uchiha are scattered throughout Konoha, there are still many places suitable for building houses. What we need to do is sell these vacant lots to newly arrived Uchiha clan members at extremely low prices, allowing everyone to build their own homes.
Given time, the Uchiha will stop living together and instead build new bonds with their neighbors. In another generation or two, the Uchiha Clan will be fully integrated into Konoha.
Sasuke to be deep in thought. If they followed Shinsei's method, perhaps they could truly solve the Uchiha problem.
Sasuke stood up and walked towards the door. "I'm going to find my teacher!"
Shinsei didn't follow Sasuke, but watched him leave. Sasuke didn't think much of it and walked straight towards the Hokage Building.
The room fell silent. Shinsei looked at Uchiha Mikoto and asked softly, " Mikoto, can you do me a favor?"
Uchiha Mikoto was somewhat surprised; she didn't know how she could possibly help this genius boy, but she nodded nonetheless.
"Go ahead and say it, Shinsei. You've helped the Uchiha Clan a lot. As long as it's within my power, I won't refuse."
"Thank you so much," Shinsei said with a smile. "It's not complicated; just help me meet someone."
Uchiha Mikoto's mind raced; she seemed to guess who Shinsei wanted her to meet. "You mean..."
" Uchiha Itachi."
Shinsei led Uchiha Mikoto to a small grove of trees.
Seeing that no one was around, Shinsei Hand Seals. As Chakra surged into the earth, a coffin slowly rose. The upright coffin lid fell to the ground, revealing a thin young man.
He had a handsome appearance and medium-length hair, with two deep nasolabial folds on his face that were particularly noticeable.
Uchiha Mikoto took a half step back, covered her mouth with her hand, and whispered in surprise, "Is... is it Itachi?"
Uchiha Itachi opened his eyes and looked at the boy and the beautiful young woman in front of him. The confusion in his eyes quickly disappeared.
"It's Shinsei? I didn't expect to see you again. Did you summon me using the Impure World Reincarnation?"
Before Shinsei could answer, Uchiha Itachi's gaze fell on Uchiha Mikoto's face. His body stiffened. "Mother... Mother?"
As intelligent as Uchiha Itachi, he instantly guessed Uchiha Mikoto's identity, but he still uttered the words "mother".
Uchiha Mikoto quickly waved her hands. "No, no, no! I'm not your mother!"
The young Uchiha Mikoto, now addressed as "Mother," no longer felt the fear and shame she had previously felt.
From the memories Sasuke left in her mind, she already knew of Uchiha Itachi's existence and understood that he was Mikoto's eldest son in this world.
Looking at the gentle and refined Uchiha Itachi before her, she couldn't believe that this was the culprit who caused the annihilation of the Uchiha Clan.
A mix of thoughts swirled in Uchiha Mikoto's mind, making her both curious about Uchiha Itachi and somewhat afraid of him.
"So Mother also knows I am a sinner of the Uchiha Clan? I'm so sorry to have frightened you."
