Itachi was in a daze as he walked home.
He could no longer remember how he separated from his uncle and how he returned to the clan.
“Uncle just want to watch the world burn.”
These words echoed in his brain, causing his body to tremble and his limbs to feel cold.
After a long time, Itachi finally came back to his senses and calmed down.
He did not intend to tell his father about his uncle’s crazy thoughts because his father had never understood him.
He wanted to tell his most trusted Shisui.
At night, at the edge of the cliff in Naka River.
“Shishui, I’m counting on you. In tomorrow’s family meeting, if my uncle does something out of line, please stop him.”
Itachi sincerely made a request to his friend.
“I understand, Itachi. I didn’t expect him to have such a dangerous idea.”
Shisui sucked in a breath of cold air, and then solemnly agreed to Itachi.
Then.
Itachi… again, he told Shishui all the information he knew about his uncle.
Including the battle with the mysterious masked man in the Naka Shrine, as well as the fact that Dan had dodged Root’s assassination and caused Aburame Tatsuma to return empty-handed.
“Uchiha Dan is a person who only values strength. The only way to stop or change his mind is to defeat him in public and let him realize that he is not omnipotent.”
Itachi warned Shisui, hoping that when the latter had a conflict with Dan, he would not show mercy.
“Don’t worry, I will win. Because, I have the same Mangekyo Sharingan as the masked man you mentioned.”
Shisui patted Itachi’s shoulder, revealing a confident and warm smile.
In the shocked eyes of Itachi.
Swish.
The black pupils of Shisui first turned into three magatama, then rotated again, turning into a brand new pattern.
Unlike the eyes of the masked man, which were triangular shaped windmill, the kaleidoscope of Shisui was a four-pointed sword.
“According to your description, that masked man only has one Mangekyo Sharingan, which is why he was careless and lost to Uchiha Dan’s three magatama Sharingan.
When the eyes of the kaleidoscope are gathered together, the power of the pupil is much stronger than that of a single eye, and it can exert real power.
That power is called the power of god. “
Shishui said with a mysterious expression.
Divine power?
When Itachi heard this, he could not help but be shocked, and at the same time, he felt much more at ease.
After all, Shisui had never disappointed him.
At the same time.
In his heart, he could not help but have a longing for the kaleidoscope.
Whether it was the masked man or Shisui, these kaleidoscope Eyes were existences that he could not reach at the moment, and he could only look up to them.
His dream was to become the most powerful ninja, become the Hokage, and then eliminate the war in the world.
To reach that step, without the kaleidoscope, he was afraid it would not work.
Shisui seemed to have seen through Itachi’s thoughts.
“Itachi, I believe you will definitely be able to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan in the future. Every pair of kaleidoscope patterns are different, and their abilities are also different. Perhaps your ability will be stronger than the other kaleidoscopes.”
With a smile on his face, Shisui encouraged Itachi meaningfully, but he did not tell him how he opened the kaleidoscope.
This was because Shisui really did not have the courage to mention the past.
The night was silent.
The next day, in the afternoon, in the Hokage’s building.
Clang.
Danzo pushed the door open and directly entered the Hokage’s office. He found that the 3rd was looking at Konoha smoking a pipe outside the window.
“Hiruzen, what time is it? Are you still in the mood to watch the scenery?”
Danzo said coldly, poking the ground with his cane to express his dissatisfaction with the Hokage.
“What’s wrong?”
Hearing this, the 3rd slowly turned around with a calm face.
“There is someone called Uchiha Dan. You should know that after he lured my four men to a remote area outside the village, he launched a sneak attack and ruthlessly killed them all!”
Danzo looked at the 3rd with an angry face, and said in a fierce voice, “The root man is a member of the Anbu, and he is your subordinate. Uchiha Dan’s actions must have been instigated by his brother-in-law, Fugaku, to launch a rebellion against us!”
With these words, the villain first filed a complaint and put Dan and Uchiha on the big hat of treason.
The 3rd watched Danzo’s performance quietly.
Phew
He puffed out a smoke ring and calmly sat on the chair of the Hokage, shaking the ashes of the cigarette into the ashtray.
“It was obvious that you wanted to get rid of him, but you were also sprayed with bitter tea by the other party. So you sent people to assassinate him out of anger, but you failed, right?”
The 3rd spoke unhurriedly, his eyes as clear as fire.
After reading the information about Dan last time, he had attached great importance to this person and had specially sent Uchiha Itachi to monitor him.
According to the report from Itachi, the third generation Hokage knew that Danzo had been shamed by Dan, but to be honest, he had not expected that Root would lose four people.
It seemed that this Uchiha Dan was even more troublesome than he had imagined.
After listening to the third generation Hokage, Danzo’s face froze.
Uchiha Itachi, this little bastard, actually told the ugly thing about him in the tea room to Hiruzen.
However.
Danzo was very thick-skinned, and since he was exposed, it was time for him to turn over the matter and pretend that he did not mention it.
He snorted and continued to remonstrate the 3rd, asking the latter to make a decision:
“Even if you intend to let the Uchiha go, don’t forget that tonight is the Uchiha’s meeting. You and I both know that this clan is becoming more and more dangerous. In this critical period, we must send the Anbu forces to surround the Uchiha’s territory. Once there is any movement, we can deal with it immediately. Even if it is necessary…”
Saying this, Danzo’s eyes turned cold, and the meaning in his words was self-evident.
“Are you teaching me ? this Hokage? Danzo, you have crossed the line.”
The 3rd frowned, showing his displeasure.
Danzo did not back down, but took a step forward and put pressure on the 3rd through the desk:
“Hiruzen, everything I do is for Konoha. This time you must listen to me!”
Bang!
The 3rd stood up and slapped the desk, shouting at Danzo: “You are too presumptuous, Danzo. I am the Hokage!”
“You will regret it.” Danzo did not give him any face and turned to leave.
After a long time.
“Come out.” Said the 3rd with a sigh.
Shisui came out from behind the screen.
After listening to the dispute between Sandaime and Danzo, he was silent at the moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
“You are making a fool of yourself, Shisui. I am not qualified to be the Hokage, and I can’t control my people.”
The 3rd spoke with self-mockery.
Shisui looked solemn and said from the bottom of his heart, “The 3rd is the greatest Hokage in history. Without you, there would be no Konoha today.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen became the Hokage for almost 40 years, and for two whole generations, they led Konoha to win two wars, and finally brought peace and prosperity to the village.
Today, this old man’s prestige in the village had long surpassed the first and second generation.
