The remaining fire sword of Konoha

In the teahouse, Itachi and Izumi were sitting together drinking tea and chatting. Beside Itachi's former teammate and current teahouse waiter, Inari Shinko, also accompanied the two.

"Senior Shinko, the teahouse is so busy, you don't need to greet us specially." Itachi said to Inari Shinko on the side.

Inari Shinko nodded, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly put his head next to Itachi's ear and smiled mischievously: "You can do it, kid. At such a young age, you already know how to date a girl, and she is such a cute girl like Izumi-chan." child!"

Although Inari Shinko was whispering, her voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Izumi who was sitting opposite Itachi to hear.

For a moment, Itachi and Izumi both blushed, while Inari Shinko walked away with a happy face. Obviously it is also very interesting to tease the juniors occasionally.

Itachi and Izumi were in awkward silence for a while, but Itachi adjusted his mood first and changed the topic first: "By the way, have you noticed that something is not right in the clan recently?"

Quanmei was stunned for a moment, then returned to her normal expression: "Is there any?"

Itachi nodded solemnly: "Not bad."

"Although our clan is mainly responsible for the police work in the village, there are also some clan members who are working outside."

"But recently I found that all the clan members who went on missions did not take any more missions after returning to the clan."

"Besides this, I noticed a lot of unfamiliar faces around the family station."

"These are very dangerous signs!"

Quanmei thought for a moment and smiled: "You're not right. My brother took on a mission a few days ago and went out."

Hearing Izumi's words, Itachi's frown deepened.

Since Itachi was already a chuunin, he had his own mission, and now he was fully capable of practicing independently. He only occasionally asked his teacher Yusuke for advice when he encountered some problems. Therefore Itachi doesn't see Yusuke often.

Izumi glanced at the darkening sky outside the teahouse, and said in an expectant tone: "It's getting late. Let's go to the night market together later. We haven't been together for a long time."

"not good!"

At this moment, Itachi's expression suddenly changed drastically, startling Izumi across from him.

Itachi immediately paid the bill, took Izumi's hand and rushed towards the direction of the Uchiha clan's residence.

"Hey? What's wrong with you, Itachi? Why are you so nervous all of a sudden?" Izumi asked strangely.

When Izumi was held by Itachi just now, Izumi was a little shy and happy, but when she saw Itachi's serious expression, she realized that something big was about to happen.

Itachi said in a low tone: "It's too late to explain. Let's go back to the family first."

After returning to the family, Itachi immediately pulled Kabuto out of the laboratory and arranged Izumi, Izumi's mother Uchiha Hazuki, Yuta and others to a secret stronghold in the clan.

After a few brief words with Kabuto, Itachi immediately rushed home and took his mother Uchiha Mikoto and Sasuke to the base.

After arranging his family, Itachi immediately went to the police force to find his father, Uchiha Fugaku.

"I hope it's not too late!"

At this time, Itachi was very anxious. He felt that a huge conspiracy had enveloped the entire family.

But not long after leaving, he was stopped by an unexpected person.

"Zhisui, I'm very busy today. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Itachi looked at Shisui who suddenly stopped him.

Since the long conversation with Yusuke more than three years ago, Itachi's thoughts have been completely different from those in the original work, and naturally run counter to Shisui's concept of "sacrifice the family to protect the village."

Some time ago, Shisui personally invited Itachi to join the Anbu, but to Shisui's disappointment, Itachi rejected him.

Since then, the two people who were already estranged have become estranged.

At the same time, in Itachi's mind, Shisui was also included in the list of people who could not be completely trusted.

This was not because Itachi had a personal opinion against Shisui, but that he keenly felt that Shisui's position was completely different from his own.

"Itachi, among the entire family, I can see that you are the only one who has the courage to sacrifice the small for the big. No one else can understand this, not even Yusuke-senpai!"

"Although I don't know what exactly changed you, I still want to make a final effort."

Shisui looked at Itachi sincerely and said in a deep tone.

From Shisui's words, Itachi guessed that he most likely knew something.

"Then what do you mean by 'last effort'?" Itachi asked rhetorically.

"I can't say much more specifically. But I hope you can come with me to meet the Third Generation and Lord Danzo. This is also your only chance."

At this time, Shisui had received the order from the Third Generation. To cooperate with Danzo to destroy the Uchiha clan tonight, it was like assuming the role of Itachi in the original work.

When he first received this order, Shisui was also shocked. It's not that he doesn't value his family, but in his heart, the status of the village is much higher than that of his family.

Although Shisui also raised objections, he hoped to invite the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku so that everyone could negotiate peacefully to resolve the current crisis. But Danzo refused on the grounds of 'preventing the temptation to alert the enemy'.

Danzo then presented a large amount of materials about the Uchiha clan's radical faction planning a coup to convince Shisui.

But what Shisui didn't know was that these evidences were half-truths and half-falsities, and most of them were forged by Danzo.

Because the radicals of the Uchiha clan have indeed had some ideas, and expanding on these already existing facts makes it difficult to distinguish between true and false.

The last three generations came forward in person, and Shisui spoke with great emotion about the heroes of the past generations who had made great sacrifices for the village, including Uchiha Kagami, the ancestor of Shisui's line, and others.

This also became the final weight that overwhelmed Shisui's inner balance, causing Shisui to completely fall to the side of Konoha's top brass and accept the task of annihilating the Uchiha clan with his own hands.

As for the other Uchiha clan members, Shisui had completely given up. But for his former best friend Itachi, Shisui wanted to try one last time.

"Although I failed to guide Itachi to the right path in the end, it may not be too late now." Shisui thought in his heart.

"The only chance?"

Itachi looked at Shisui expressionlessly, but he also had mixed feelings in his heart.

It can be said that without the existence of Yusuke as a teacher, he would definitely follow Shisui's footsteps and embark on a completely different path.

Scenes of scenes he had experienced with Shisui flashed through his mind, but these scenes were quickly replaced by more other scenes.

Scenes of eating and chatting with his parents, teasing his infant brother Sasuke, playing in the night market with Izumi, practicing taijutsu with Kabuto, and having a long conversation with his teacher Yusuke.

Three years ago, Itachi's heart no longer had the initial confusion, but only determination and determination.

"My teacher once said something, I wonder if you have heard of it."

"What are you talking about?" Zhisui frowned, and he already had a bad feeling from Itachi's tone.

"Different road non-phase plan!"

One update today and two updates tomorrow.
