Under the Bamboo Forest of Naruto

"quack-------"

Following the gloomy cries of crows, the setting sun slowly set. In the last setting sun, a large group of people silently left Nanga Shrine one after another.

At the end of the crowd, there was a young man wearing a dark high-collared short-sleeved top, triangular protective gear, pants of the same color, and leggings. This man was the official member of the Uchiha clan.

The strongest one——Uchiha Shisui.

Next to Uchiha Shisui, there was a young man with long black hair wearing ANBU clothing. The most eye-catching thing about the young man was the deep lines that extended from the corners of his eyes near his nose to his eyes. Because this time

It was a family gathering, so the boy took off his ANBU mask.

"Shisui, is there really nothing we can do?"

Looking at the silent Shisui next to him, Uchiha Itachi finally couldn't help but ask. The topic of this family gathering made Itachi feel very depressed, although he knew that the relationship between the family and the village had always been relatively good.

He was nervous, but he didn't expect that the conflict between the family and the village had reached a level where the two could not coexist.

After the last Nine-Tails Rebellion, the upper echelons of the village clearly showed their distrust of the Uchiha clan. First they moved the Uchiha clan to the fringes of the village and marginalized them, and now they are in the police force.

The problem is getting closer and closer.

Faced with the constant persecution from the village's top management, the complaints within the clan also increased. Although he and Shisui continued to appease the clan's emotions, what they received in return was that the clan members glared at them and scolded them and asked them if they were Uchiha.

A clan of people.

In today's family gathering, some radical clan members have even proposed the extreme method of coup to seize power, and the majority of clan members are in favor of the coup. What worries Itachi even more is that as the leader of the clan,

His father did not express his opposition to the coup. If the situation is allowed to develop like this, Konoha will inevitably usher in a civil war. By then, facing Konoha whose strength has been greatly reduced, the fourth ninja world may even break out.

The war. This is unacceptable to the two people who have always loved the village deeply.

Looking at Uchiha Itachi with a dull look on his face, and then at the other clan members who were clearly avoiding the two of them, Shisui couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile. Unexpectedly, he was the only one among the Uchiha clan who could understand him.

It turned out to be this clan brother who was more than ten years younger than him.

.......

At the entrance of the shrine, Uchiha Fugaku crossed his arms on his chest, leaning slightly against the wall and looking expressionlessly at Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi who were leaving together.

When the last ray of sunlight dissipated, Liu Yu's figure appeared in front of Uchiha Fugaku. He looked at Fugaku and replied softly: "Long wait!"

Fugaku looked at Liu Yu who appeared in front of him, nodded silently, and then walked into Nanga Shrine again, and Liu Yu followed suit.

After walking into the shrine, Uchiha Fugaku looked at Liu Yu who followed and nodded. Then he walked to a rock wall and groped for a while, and finally found a hidden mechanism and opened an underground passage.

Seeing that the underground secret room was opened, Fugaku walked down first. Liuyu was not surprised when he saw this, and followed Fugaku's footsteps into the underground secret room.

The underground secret room seemed relatively empty. Under the light of the fire, Liu Yu noticed the stone tablet located at the innermost part of the secret room at a glance.

"Is this the stone tablet that you have passed down from generation to generation to record the secrets of your family?"

Liu Yu seemed to be questioning but actually said with certainty. In a sense, it was the stone tablet in front of him that had been modified by Hei Zetsu that caused all the tragedies.

Uchiha Fugaku did not answer Ryūha's question, but just stared at the stone tablet in front of him with a complicated expression. Now the Uchiha clan is at a critical moment of life and death, but the so-called ancestral stone tablet in front of them that can bring peace cannot save the clan.

After a period of silence, Uchiha Fugaku finally made up his mind, turned his head and stared directly at Ryūha's eyes. Three black magatama quickly rotated in the blood-colored pupils, and finally connected with each other to form a three-leaf spiral blade.

"really!"

Looking directly at Fugaku's exposed Mangekyō Sharingan, Ryūha looked as if this was indeed the case.

"You don't seem surprised by my kaleidoscope?"

Fugaku also showed a hint of curiosity at this time. This was the first time he showed his Mangekyō Sharingan in front of others. He originally thought that Ryūyu would be surprised by his own eyes.

"I just don't believe that the evil-eyed Fugaku who can lead the Uchiha clan will only be at the level of three magatama."

Looking at Fugaku's confused eyes, Liuyu shook her head slightly and explained that there was no way she could tell Fugaku that she knew about the development of the plot!

"This was started after I witnessed the death of one of my friends during the Third Ninja War."

Fugaku did not delve into this issue, but instead took the initiative to explain the origin of his Mangekyō Sharingan to Ryūha. After speaking, Fugaku fell into silence, and he didn't know if he was thinking about his good friend.

"Besides, this isn't the first time I've seen the Mangekyo Sharingan."

At this moment, Liu Yu dropped a bombshell.

"Is it Shisui's Mangekyo?"

Fugaku asked casually, as the clan leader, he knew that Shisui opened the Mangekyō Sharingan during the Third Ninja War. And except for himself as the clan leader, several others in the Konoha Guard Force

The core members of the Uchiha clan who hold high positions also know about this.

It is precisely because of this that after he secretly opened the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui became the strongest member of the clan on the surface. In addition to the top leaders of Uchiha, the top leaders of Konoha also knew this news.

However, they only knew the fact that Shisui had opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, and they did not know the true ability of Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan.

I heard that this little girl had contact with Shisui before when he was on the front line of Yuno Country. It must have been at that time that he saw Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan!

To be honest, when Fugaku knew that Shisui possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, he complained more than once about Shisui's political naivety.

In terms of time, he opened the Mangekyo Sharingan earlier than Shisui, but he never dared to show this power in front of others. Why? It's not because of the embarrassing situation of the Uchiha clan in Konoha. This power is powerful,

But if you are not careful, it will bring disaster to the entire clan.

Letting Konoha's top brass know that there is a clan member in the Uchiha clan with the Mangekyou Sharingan, it will only make Konoha's top brass more fearful of the Uchiha clan and make the clan's situation even more difficult.

"No! It's not Brother Shisui's kaleidoscope, but the kaleidoscope that controls the Nine-Tails!"

Seeing that Fugaku was lost in thought again, Liu Yu denied Fugaku's guess out loud, and then looked directly into Fugaku's eyes and answered word for word.

"What did you say?"

Hearing Liu Yu's answer, Fugaku's heart suddenly surged like three rivers and he couldn't calm down for a long time. When he looked into Liu Yu's eyes, his voice couldn't stop trembling.

In the past, although Konoha and the Uchiha clan were slightly at odds, they could at least coexist within the framework of Konoha. Many Uchiha clan members really recognized their identity as Konoha ninjas.

.

As for why the conflict between Konoha and the Uchiha clan has intensified to the current level, it is mainly because of the last Nine-Tails Rebellion. After all, the top management of Konoha has the ability to break the seal of the Nine-Tails and pass through it.

The only thing that inspired him to attack Konoha was Uchiha's Sharingan.

If the real mastermind behind the Nine-Tails Rebellion can be taken advantage of, perhaps the conflict between Konoha and Uchiha can be resolved. Fugaku himself also has feelings for Konoha, and from his personal point of view, he is not willing to launch a coup.

.It’s just that because he is in the position of the leader of a clan, he cannot refuse the will of his clan members.
