Chapter 212

The old man was very happy.

Uchiha Fugaku was a little helpless when Uchiha Shisui expressed his willingness to work hard for his family and village.

Uchiha Fugaku said sadly: "Shisui, it's not that simple. Although the Konoha Defense Force has you and the fourth generation of the Anbu, there are also the root ninjas of Chiba and Danzo. The situation of our Uchiha clan will be very difficult in the future."

Uchiha Shisui immediately said: "Patriarch, I will never let them mess around!"

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head: "You can't do it, Shisui, even the fourth generation can't do it. It's impossible to stop Chiba, or Danzo behind Chiba."

Uchiha Shisui frowned.

Uchiha Shisui now firmly trusts Namikaze Minato.

So Uchiha Shisui also believes that Namikaze Minato will be able to do it.

Uchiha Fugaku told Uchiha Shisui: "Shisui, in fact, the Fourth Hokage can't make decisions on many things now. Although the Third Hokage has chosen to retire, he is still behind the scenes, and there are Hokage assisting Shimura Danzo, senior advisors Mitomon En and Utatane Koharu.

Except for the Third Hokage who has no ill will or goodwill towards us, the other two advisors are more or less malicious towards us and are afraid of us, and Danzo hates us extremely.

Do you know why I am so sure that our Uchiha will have a hard time in the future?"

Uchiha Shisui lowered his head and said: "Is it because I am too immature..."

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head and said: "No, it's not this reason. The real reason that makes me so sure is that we have been divided from our Konoha Guard Force. Two powers.

The first is to formulate village rules. I think you should understand how important this power is. The rules we made before are likely to be invalidated. All of us must abide by the rules made by the Konoha Defense Force, that is, Chiba and Danzo.

Then it is to arrest ninjas with criminal tendencies. This power is more troublesome than making village rules, because we can no longer arrest ninjas in the future. We can only arrest civilians who are not ninjas. Only the Konoha Defense Force is qualified to arrest ninjas.

Chiba will definitely use this rule to target us severely.

I believe you will try your best to prevent them from messing around, but what if it is within your power? Can you still interfere with them? "

Uchiha Shisui hesitated.

Within his power, he really couldn't interfere.

Uchiha Fugaku continued, "However, it is a good thing that you can become the deputy leader. At least they dare not act recklessly and can only target us within their authority. As long as we restrain the clan members from causing trouble, a large part of the trouble should be reduced.

Shisui, you are very important. The Fourth Hokage trusts you very much. You are the bridge for communication between our Uchiha clan and the Fourth Hokage.

And I have decided to put the future of the Uchiha clan on the Fourth Hokage, so you should observe the Fourth Hokage more and tell me as soon as possible if there is any situation."

Uchiha Shisui did not understand what Uchiha Fugaku meant.

Uchiha Fugaku explained: "Our Uchiha clan is in a very bad situation. Originally, my father wanted to put all his efforts on the Third Ninja World War and establish military merits. In this way, as the greatest contributors to the war, the Konoha high-level officials would not be able to take action against us, but... failed.

My father did not expect that the Konoha high-level officials would be so impatient that they would take action against us in the middle and late stages of the war, and the one who took action was Chiba.

Later, as you know, after I became the clan leader, I restrained the clan members.

And the fourth generation is the first and the one who really showed goodwill to our Uchiha clan, so I want to bet on the fourth generation.

Therefore, I need you to help me observe the fourth generation. After all, the fourth generation now has no real power, and our loyalty is of great help to the fourth generation.

But no one knows what arrangements the fourth generation will have for our Uchiha clan after he has completely mastered the real power.

So if I bet wrong, I must stop the loss in time, Shisui, do you understand?"

Uchiha Shisui now understands.

Uchiha Fugaku wanted him to monitor Minato Namikaze's every move.

But... now Uchiha Shisui, to put it bluntly, is also monitoring the Uchiha clan and telling Minato Namikaze what he has learned.

Now he wants to monitor Minato Namikaze in turn, what is this?

Seeing that Uchiha Shisui did not answer him immediately, he thought that Uchiha

Shisui was unwilling, and Uchiha Fugaku's eyes were stern, and he said in a deep voice: "Shisui, you must remember that you are a member of the Uchiha clan. You must always remember your identity, and the family's affairs are above everything else!"

Uchiha Shisui looked at Uchiha Fugaku in disbelief.

In his mind, he was first a ninja of Konoha, and then a member of the Uchiha clan, so Konoha's affairs were above everything else.

So it was difficult for Uchiha Fugaku to accept the statement that family affairs were above everything else.

Uchiha Fugaku stared at Uchiha Shisui's eyes with a terrifying look, and asked again: "Do you understand? Shisui!"

Uchiha Shisui lowered his head slightly and whispered: "I know, clan leader."

When Uchiha Shisui left, Uchiha Fugaku took a deep look at Uchiha Shisui's back.

Uchiha Fugaku suddenly felt... Uchiha Shisui was not very credible.

...

After leaving the room, Uchiha Fugaku saw his son Uchiha Itachi coming over.

After seeing Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Itachi bowed and said, "Father."

Uchiha Fugaku smiled and nodded: "Have you completed today's training?"

"I have completed it, father."
