Uchiha's Counterattack

In the dark room, a silent and depressing atmosphere spread in the air. The candlelight flickered and illuminated Uchiha Itachi's calm expression. He was sitting flat on the ground and still wearing ANBU uniform. There was no light in his dark eyes. , like a pool of stagnant water with no vitality.

Itachi sat here in silence, waiting for his father, with a numb expression that made it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

The death of Uchiha Shisui had a greater impact on Itachi than anyone else, causing him to fall into the cold abyss in an instant and completely cut off his expectations for the family. Now Itachi, just like his indifferent expression, has no regard for the entire world. All filled with feelings of hatred and rejection.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the corridor, one of which was the most familiar breath of my father. There were also several other members of the Uchiha Guard Shinobi walking with him, but there was also a somewhat unfamiliar breath mixed in. .

Uchiha Itachi shook his ears slightly, and slowly looked towards the door with numb eyes.

The door was opened with a swish, and Uchiha Fugaku, who was the leader, strode into the room, and behind him was a fellow Uchiha Itachi who was not very familiar with.

As for the others, they didn't come into the room, but were arranged to defend nearby.

After entering the room, Fugaku walked directly to Uchiha Itachi and sat down. Itachi's mind was very sensitive. He felt a different kind of emotion from Fugaku, which was very complicated and unfriendly.

Itachi turned his head and looked at Xia Nan aside. He had a common face of ordinary tribesmen, and his chakra reaction was not strong, so there was no special feeling. But whenever his eyes met Itachi's, the latter always felt an awkward and strange feeling.

He is an inconspicuous but strange person. This is Uchiha Itachi's first impression of Xia Nan.

"Itachi, this is Xia Nan. And Xia Nan, this is my eldest son, Uchiha Itachi."

Xia Nan was standing beside Fuyue at this time. In fact, he had already noticed the famous Uchiha Itachi when he just came in, but for various reasons and concerns, Xia Nan didn't want to think about it at all. Face-to-face communication with Itachi Uchiha.

The stakes are too high, and things could easily go wrong.

Xia Nan, who frowned, reluctantly nodded towards Itachi and showed a forced smile. The stiff expression and vigilant eyes caused a slight fluctuation in the latter's heart.

"Hello, Uchiha Shanu."

"Hello Uchiha Itachi."

Although it was negligible, Itachi subconsciously became wary of this strange fellow.I can't say why this feeling is, but I seem to feel subconsciously that the other party has an inexplicable hostility and vigilance towards me.

Moving his gaze down slightly, Itachi was able to tell from the slightly shaking fingers of the other party and the beads of sweat on his forehead that the other party's mental mood was quite tense.

Feeling strange and wary, Itachi turned his attention to his father.

In Itachi's eyes, his father still had the same calm expression as before, but his chakra's reaction fluctuated somewhat inexplicably, and while his breathing was a little short, there was an unconcealable sense of anxiety and heaviness in his eyes.

Reminiscent of the guardian ninja who informed me before, saying that a clansman came to report the information that Konoha's high-level officials were about to attack the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Itachi's originally numb eyes fluctuated a bit, and a cold edge flashed in the dark pupils.

He suddenly seemed to understand something.

"Itachi, I have a few questions for you to answer."

To know the son is like a father, Itachi's emotional change at that moment did not hide from Fuyue's eyes.In fact, Fugaku, who already possessed the kaleidoscope sharingan, not only knew the change of Itachi's mood, but also faintly noticed the hidden power in his body.

But Fugaku still didn't clarify the topic immediately. Not only did he want to get an answer from his son, but as a father, he ultimately hoped that his children would stand by him and his family.

"Where were you on the day Shisui died?"

"."

Of course Itachi was with him on the day Shisui died. That was the day he got Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan from him. Then he also opened his own in despair after getting Shisui's glasses. kaleidoscope.

Of course, all this cannot be told to the tribe and father, otherwise it will only make Uchiha more arrogant, and will want to take the Konoha regime even more unscrupulously.

"Why haven't you attended the clan gatherings recently? You are my son, and your attitude will affect most of the clan members to a great extent."

Itachi's fingers twitched slightly and his lips moved a few times.

What would the Uchiha clan be like? It would be nothing more than venting their dissatisfaction with Konoha, a gathering filled with hostility and anger. Everyone would roar like fools about the glory of Uchiha in the past, putting their own arrogance above that of the entire village. superior.

Just a catharsis for a bunch of egomaniacs who are disgustingly arrogant and ignorant.

"Is there any need to attend such a crazy gathering?"

"Fuck"

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi's disgusted emotion deeply stimulated Fu Yue.So much so that Fuyue, who had never shown his emotions, showed his angry side in front of Itachi for the first time.

"Itachi is because of your attitude of being distant from your clan members but close to the Hokage clan that the voice of dissatisfaction is getting louder and louder."

"I will cultivate the bond between your family and the village, but I will not let you stand completely on the Hokage's side. You are putting the interests of the village before the clan. Do you understand?"

With a muffled bang, Fuyue slammed his fist on the tatami furiously, and his pupils turned into three-shaped jade and glared at Itachi.

Fu Yue's anger was not unreasonable. He sensed the resentment in the other party's heart from Itachi's reply attitude. Fu Yue could not accept the ridicule and indifference of the clansmen anyway.

Because Fugaku realized that deep down in Itachi's heart, he was resentful of his family and clansmen, and regarded the clansmen's attitude as the culprit of Shisui's death. Not only was he favoring the higher-ups of the Hokage department, but he might even have

"I just followed my father's order and tried my best to maintain the peace between the family and the village. I didn't do anything extra, and I didn't have the heart to deal with other chores."

"If it weren't for the clan members always holding on to the stupid ideas of pride in the past, the relationship between the village and the family would never have reached this point. There is no need for others to pay for our mistakes, and isn't the family also a part of the village? "
