Chapter 18: The Wrath of the Clansmen
Konoha Forest.
Under the dense shade of the trees, where the sunlight could not penetrate, there was a "clang" sound of metal colliding.
The two black-haired teenagers sweated like rain in the forest, and the cool breeze in the forest could not stop the enthusiasm of the teenagers.
"So, I'm going to use that trick to decide the winner...
The Uchiha Shisui grinned, looking like he was winning.
"Good!"
Uchiha Itachi replied, a look of anticipation on his pale face.
After a long battle, both of them were close to exhaustion.
Unable to open the Sharingan, the battle became more and more intense.
"Instantaneous."
The Uchiha stopped the water and suddenly activated and rushed out like a cheetah.
His body rubbed violently against the air in the air, splitting into several shadows that were difficult to catch with the naked eye.
"One, two, three, four..."
The naked eye could no longer keep up with the speed at which the Uchiha stopped the water, and could only rely on the subtle chakra fluctuations in the air to catch his movements.
This is Uchiha's original ninjutsu, and it is also the technique that he relied on to become famous.
Because of this technique, he earned himself the title of "Instant Water Stopping" on the battlefield.
Four on the ground, two in the air...
The Uchiha Itachi flipped with one hand, and the four shuriken attacked the four people.
There was a slight rattle in the air, like the cracking of bubbles.
Just as the two figures approached his body, an extra smoke bomb suddenly appeared in his hand.
There was a soft "pop", and the white smoke completely covered a radius of several meters.
In the pungent smoke, there was no eerie sound.
The forest was silent for a moment, and only the cool breeze that passed through the forest still dissipated the smoke uninterestingly.
The white smoke faded into fading, and the two black-haired teenagers gradually emerged from the smoke.
Uchiha Itachi calmly looked ahead, and Uchiha Itachi's kunai was resting on his shoulder.
"You've lost...
Uchiha stopped the water with a kunai on Itachi's shoulder.
Sudden mutations.
Uchiha Itachi's body exploded right in front of his eyes, turning into countless fragments and soaring into the air.
Another Uchiha Itachi appeared ghostly behind him.
The ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked, and the dirt splattered, and the Uchiha Shisui's true body rushed out of the ground, striking the figure that had just appeared with a punch.
The smile on Uchiha's cheeks froze as soon as it unfolded, and all he punched with all his might was a cloud of air.
The fragments that had split in front of them snapped away, as if time had been turned back, re-condensed into a human body in an impossible way.
"I lost...
Uchiha Shisui sighed regretfully, turned around, and put away the kunai in his hand,
"I didn't expect that last moment to be an illusion."
Uchiha Itachi smiled reluctantly, he had used up the last trace of chakra in his body, and he couldn't even speak.
。。。。。。。。
"Uchiha Yashiro colluded with outsiders, and that person could also be from the Uchiha clan?"
The Uchiha was startled and almost fell off the cliff.
"That's right, and that person is the mastermind who controlled the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha back then."
Itachi's face was as gloomy as a dark cloud in the sky.
"Did you tell Fugaku-sama about this?"
"Nope. I haven't told anyone but you, including my father. ”
"You don't believe Fugaku-sama?"
Uchiha Shisui had a long mouth and looked at Itachi in surprise.
"I don't believe anyone but you."
Uchiha Itachi's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.
"And what are you going to do?"
Uchiha's face also became solemn.
"You can't start by surprise until you have figured out the purpose of "that person". We can only wait and see what happens... ”
Uchiha Itachi sighed deeply,
"And, even if the two of us join forces, we are no match for "that man" ... ”
Both were silent.
Below, the rushing water roared against the cliff face, making a deafening roar, like a demonstration of two teenagers.
。。。。。。。。
Minamiga Shrine.
The sliding door opened in front of Itachi Uchiha, and he shivered at the oncoming violent aura.
The air in the room was so oppressive that it suffocated everyone.
Uchiha Itachi lowered his head and quietly walked to the far corner of the room.
In the crowd, Izumi Uchiha threw a good-natured smile at him.
His heart warmed slightly, and he nodded and smiled at the girl.
"We're almost there, let's get started."
Uchiha Fugaku's voice broke the silence in the room.
His voice was quiet, majestic and powerful enough for everyone in the room to hear.
"Hachishiro, you come along."
"Yes, Fugaku-sama."
Uchiha Yashiro coughed lightly and got up to face the crowd of people in front of him.
"Everybody should have heard about it. The upper echelons of Konoha decided to cut the budget of the Konoha Police Force by 30% starting next month. The reason is that most of the work of the police force has been undertaken by the dark department, and the law and order conditions in Konoha are good... ”
No one listened to him anymore.
It was as if it was a drop of water falling in the hot oil pot.
The sudden explosion of sound in the silent room was enough to tear down the roof of Nanga Shrine.
Everyone was frantically expressing their frustration and anger, and no one cared if others could hear them.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Uchiha Shisui approached from behind, bumped Uchiha Itachi with his shoulder, and snorted at Uchiha Yashiro, who was standing at the front.
Uchiha Itachi nodded, his gaze piercing the crowd and landing on Uchiha Yashiro's face.
In his previous life, he had always thought that Uchiha Yatsuyo was just a poor follower and didn't pay much attention to it.
But at this moment, he clearly saw the smug smile under the indignant mask of Uchiha Yashiro.
His heart sank, and his gaze turned to his father, Uchiha Fugaku.
The father's pale face was full of exhaustion and helplessness.
The party ended in chaos and bickering.
Even the cool breeze of the night could not dispel the anger of the Uchiha people, and on the way out of Nanga Shrine, there were people everywhere venting their frustrations in anger.
Uchiha Itachi did not leave with his father, he stood in the shadow of a large tree under the Nanga Shrine, waiting for someone.
"Itachi."
The sound of the Uchiha stopping the water came from behind him.
The two figures silently disappeared in the direction of the Konoha Forest, attracting no one's attention.
。。。。。。。。
"I believe you, there must be something wrong with Uchiha Yashiro...
As soon as he stopped, Uchiha Shisui couldn't wait to speak.
"As for Lord Fugaku..."
He hesitated, paused for a moment before continuing,
"Judging from today's situation, Lord Fugaku probably doesn't want the Uchiha clan to have a standoff with Konoha."
"This is just the beginning. Konoha will not take action against the Uchiha clan immediately, which can easily cause the dissatisfaction of other secret families, after all, the Uchiha clan is one of the founders of Konoha. ”
