Chapter 42 042. There is no shortage of Uchiha who understand the will of fire

A few days later, news of Shisui's disappearance spread throughout the Uchiha clan.

After losing Shisui, the strongest man in Uchiha, the coup plan of the security forces naturally came to nothing. Even the strongest members of the clan could disappear inexplicably, and even if a coup was launched, it would not be successful.

Compared with the death of one's family, it is not so difficult to accept the status quo of being treated differently.

But Uchiha ninjas are more concerned about another thing. Where did Shisui go? Did he defect and leave the village, or was he assassinated? Why couldn't even the body be found?

After searching for several days with no results, the Uchiha jonin turned his attention to Itachi.

When the coup clan meeting was called that day, only Itachi and Shisui did not attend. Itachi must have known the inside story, or he himself was the murderer of Shisui.

Under such circumstances, several Uchiha jounin blocked the door of Fugaku's house, waiting for Itachi to show up.

Being surrounded by his own men in the mansion, Fugaku opened the door with an ugly face, looked at the menacing Uchiha jounin, and scolded: "Yashiro, Inari, what do you want to do?"

Uchiha Yashiro said unceremoniously: "Captain, we suspect Itachi killed Shisui!"

Fugaku said with a gloomy expression: "Shisui and Itachi are close friends, how could Itachi kill Shisui?!"

"Shisui is indeed Itachi's best friend, but what if Itachi covets Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan? That is the legendary eye. In order to take away the Mangekyo Sharingan, Itachi will kill Shisui!"

Hearing this, Fugaku fell into thought. Itachi might have really killed Shisui.

Itachi in the study listened wordlessly to the conversation outside the courtyard, with a lingering haze covering his face. He found the suicide note left behind in Shisui's room.

Shisui committed suicide, hoping to prevent the clan's coup by committing suicide, and left him the Mangekyō Sharingan and the ideal of peaceful coexistence between the clan and the village.

The suicide note and ideals are still there, but Brother Zhisui's body is missing.

If he hadn't been familiar with Brother Zhisui's handwriting, he would have begun to wonder if this was a forged suicide note.

But the current situation of the clan made Itachi feel irritated. Shisui used his life to prevent the coup from happening, but this group of clan members were ignorant and even suspected that he killed Shisui and sabotaged the coup.

Are such people really worth saving? Sooner or later they will be killed by arrogance!

Emotions stimulated the brain, and a large amount of Yin-type chakra gathered in his eyes. Unknowingly, Itachi's face became ferocious, and his three magatama-shaped Sharingan also changed into the shape of a shuriken.

At the same time, the use of Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu also appeared in Itachi's mind.

"Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Itachi was a little surprised, but his eyes soon returned to firmness, and he was no longer confused about the future. The Sharingan is the eye that reflects the heart, and the kaleidoscope has told him where the future will go.

After disappearing from the study, leaving behind a few crow feathers, Itachi appeared on the street outside the yard.

After easily repelling several Jonin using both fists and kicks, Itachi directly grabbed Yashiro's neck and slammed him against the wall. His Sharingan gave off a strange look:

"How do people like you know how Shisui measures up to me? If you want to tell me what to do, you should first get eyes like mine."

After saying that, Itachi threw Yashiro to the ground and left without looking back.

Half a minute later, Yashiro got up from the ground, looked at Uchiha Itachi's back, and said with lingering fear: "Itachi has also awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, and it is a completely different eye from Shisui."

When the other jounin heard this, they were also shocked. That was the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Fugaku on the side was lost in thought. Itachi awakened the kaleidoscope. If Shisui was not dead, Uchiha would not be unable to sit on the throne of Hokage.

…

More than ten minutes later, Uchiha Itachi appeared at the Hokage Building and saw a group of Konoha senior officials.

Faced with the doubts of Konoha's top brass, Uchiha Itachi said that Shisui took the initiative to commit suicide for the sake of peace between Uchiha and the village, in order to prevent the coup from happening.

After hearing this, the Third Hokage and the advisor elders were all sighing, and they all felt sorry for Shisui.

The Third Hokage looked at Uchiha Itachi in front of him with a somewhat complicated expression: "It's a pity what happened with Shisui. The bridge of communication between Uchiha and the village has been lost again. Itachi, are you willing to serve as a new bridge?"

Uchiha Itachi nodded: "My subordinates are willing to serve as a new bridge, but Shisui's body is still missing. I hope the village can help."

"I will send someone to find him. After all, Shisui is the hero of the village and his body must not be exposed in the wilderness."

The Third Hokage sighed, losing Shisui as a subordinate, it would be false to say that he was not sad, but Shisui's other gods could indeed pose a great threat to him, and he was faintly grateful.

At this time, Danzo on the side said abruptly: "We want to find Shisui's body. The other gods must not fall into the hands of other ninja villages. They are treasures that belong to the village."

Itachi glanced at Danzo, and then said: "Sir, I will take my leave now. The tribe's mood is not very stable, and we need to prevent them from thinking about a coup again."

After Itachi left, the Third Hokage looked at Danzo and blamed him: "Danzo, do you want to destroy the only bridge of communication between us and Uchiha? Shisui just died!"

Danzo said disapprovingly: "Hiruzhan, don't forget Shisui's eyes. Other gods are likely to be in Itachi's hands. This is a very big threat to us."

"We haven't found the real reason why Shisui committed suicide yet? You might have been involved in this. Isn't the recent staff transfer in the Roots a bit strange?"

The Third Hokage's eyes were cold and he responded unceremoniously, but because the advisor elder was still there, he could not expose Danzo.

At this time, the advisory duo came to smooth things over: "Okay, stop arguing, let's think about how to deal with the police force. Shisui's death can only delay the coup at most, and Uchiha will launch another coup sooner or later. "

As soon as these words came out, the Third Hokage and Danzo immediately fell silent. The consultant elder was right.

After pondering for a while, the Third Hokage said: "I believe that with Itachi here, the village can live in peace with the police force. Uchiha has never lacked people who can understand the will of fire."

Danzo said with a gloomy face: "I think we should strike first and take advantage of the Uchiha's lack of preparation to lead people to destroy the Uchiha in advance and completely solve this hidden danger."

The Third Hokage glanced at Danzo: "Is Danzo taking the lead? Uchiha is a member of the village, not our enemy. He is the first to take action. How will other ninja villages view the Hokage Building?"

"The Uchiha are already enemies of the village."

Danzo looked serious, and then left the Hokage's office directly, planning to summon Uchiha Itachi at the root.
