I became rich through business in the ninja world

……Probably.

I thought about it, but not completely.

Then after seeing extraordinary performance.

A bit surprised, a bit impressed and a bit wary...

At first, Ugetsu said that he didn't think it would work, and when he wanted to do it himself, Uchiha Fugaku only thought that the other party was curious, so he wanted to play a role to have a sense of participation.

Although he felt that it was somewhat inappropriate for outsiders to get involved... But after all, whether Uchiha could open his eyes this time depended on her, so he turned a blind eye and agreed.

But I never expected that the whole incident, which seemed to me like a 'joke', would suddenly escalate.

Compared with a group of people just hunkering down and running away, of course it is more touching and shocking when someone sacrifices for themselves.

If the two Uchiha had the opportunity to doubt whether there was anything wrong with what they had experienced, not only did he not doubt it now. He will still believe it deeply and will really work hard to the death.

After all, it is no longer just a matter of life and death for the two of them.

But they still have a mission.

A mission that must be accomplished even at the expense of the lives of fellow humans.

The mental pressure and impact are completely different.

The former is simply crisis pressure.

The latter has a sense of mission and responsibility.

If he failed to complete the mission even though he was burdened with sacrifices, then for the always proud and powerful Uchiha.

I really can't forgive myself for the rest of my life.

"It's time to separate the two."

Just when Uchiha Fugaku once again marveled that Miss Ugetsu could grasp Uchiha's temper so accurately and carry out shockingly precise strikes.

Ugetsu's voice sounded again.

"It seems the stimulation is not enough."

She looked at the two men who were almost dominated by fear and repression.

"Is that not enough?"

Uchiha Fugaku was stunned.

"It's not enough. I haven't opened my eyes yet."

Ugetsu sighed.

"I thought that after someone died, they would open their eyes on the road in fear and grief... But they still just kept running, so the stimulation was not enough."

Uchiha Fuyue: "..."

But the curly-haired boy nodded: "Miss Ugyue, do you think that because she has companions, they are not pushed to the limit?"

Not only did he not think there was a problem, but he seriously thought about the key issues and tried to understand them for subsequent implementation.

"Yes, it is possible."

Ugetsu showed an expression of approval.

Look, this is the biggest difference between a gold medal assistant and a dawdling salted fish!

When you hand over the work to Xianyu, he will just say "received" and then take it step by step.

But the gold medal assistant can use his own brain to think.

Not only know what it is but also know why it is so.

They don't simply complete an instruction.

Rather, after thinking deeply about the reasons and the purpose of the work, choose the most appropriate and appropriate way to achieve the purpose.

Both are jobs, but they are completely different.

Although they all seem to have "done the job ordered by the boss," the results and gains are completely different.

The former says to do it one step at a time, but may still fall short of the point and keep reworking.

She may not even know why she kept reworking until the end. I just feel that my work and my boss are torturing me.

Even if the latter makes one or two mistakes, he can still find the right direction in time.

Even the subsequent series of work will not go wrong again.

——Of course, it’s not that there aren’t those stupid (silenced) leaders who take pleasure in tormenting their subordinates, but most of the time, leaders are still worried when they look at their subordinates who are like jellyfish and have no idea what they are doing or thinking.

It’s so urgent. After the project is over, why don’t we all take the money and have a party together?

Even if there is no party, wouldn't it be good for everyone to take the money and do their own thing?

So having Shisui here is really the greatest blessing in her life.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Uchiha Fugaku, who seemed to be still stunned and unresponsive.

In contrast, the person in charge who should really care most is...

This is really true.

Of course, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't miss such an obvious performance.

But he just slowly and slowly put a question mark in his mind.

——What is this expression of hatred for iron that cannot be transformed into steel?

But no matter how Uchiha Fugaku behaves, the task of separating people and pushing them to their limits must be done quickly.

The sense of urgency requires a short time.

So under Ugetsu's guidance, Uchiha Shisui manipulated the 'masked man' to force the two of them into a crossroads again.

If we go together, there is a high probability that we will die together here.

The information will also be cut off.

In desperation, the two chose to separate.

"No matter who he goes after, the other person must pass on the information."

After resolutely making such a decision, the two of them said nothing more about 'live on' or 'will meet in the future'.

Instead, he ran in different directions without looking back.

They had no time to waste.

We must move one step faster, and one step faster... to pass on the information.

Only in this way can Uchiha retain the last glimmer of hope.

The two of them ran away with all their strength, even if the tears dried on their faces, they would never stop.

However, since it is a fantasy world.

Of course there is only one ‘mask man’.

When the two of them couldn't see it, the masked man turned into two and chased each other in different directions.

Because it was a 'Y' shaped intersection, the two of them noticed that they were being chased by a masked man, so they naturally thought that he was being chased in their direction.

More despair and fear came to mind.

The tragic death of the tribesmen is still vivid in his mind.

At this moment, the appearance of his own body even appeared in front of his eyes.

Miserable, looking like trash that had been torn apart at random...

No, no.

That would be too sad.

He looked at the masked man approaching him step by step, and the blood that kept slipping from his sleeves and clothes. The boy almost felt like he couldn't breathe.

That is the blood of the people.

Every drop of blood was stained with the pain of the tribesmen - it seemed that he could still hear the screams of the tribesmen in his ears.

The boy opened his mouth and gasped for air, as if he would really suffocate if he didn't do this.

pat, pat.

The sound of footsteps seemed to be stepping on his heart.

The boy's vision was gradually covered in red.

He could no longer see the man in front of him, only a blush.

There are also the unwilling ghosts of the tribesmen.

"I'll go in the other direction to lure him away. You guys run away."

The voice of a clansman whose name I couldn't remember rang in my ears again.

...How could you just give up?

"I won't lose to you like this!"

Something seemed to be broken in his mind, but the boy didn't care. He just bit his already bitten lip again and then rushed forward without hesitation.

He is an Uchiha.

Even if you die, you must fight until you die.

Absolutely, and absolutely cannot die like this in tears!

Even if he is going to die, he must buy time for his companions, and then... die vigorously!

"Come on! Let me show you the power of Uchiha!!!"

A roar came.

And the other side.

The boy, who was already somewhat sensitive to horror stories, hid in the nearest house.

His legs were weak and his heart was beating rapidly.

It seemed like it would jump out of my throat in the next second.

He no longer expected to survive.

I just hope that I can at least use this method to delay it for a little longer.

——In this way, at least the companions will have a chance to pass on the information.

He covered his mouth tightly with both hands, fearing that he would scream.

The young man hid in the bathroom in panic.

Compared with other places, the smaller and darker space made him feel more secure.

Generally speaking, people don’t come here specifically, right?

Even if you look for it, it should be at the very back... right?

He tried to calm himself down.

The bathroom is very quiet.

But the ticking sound coming from nowhere was constantly provoking his already tense nerves.

As time passed, the nervous feeling became more and more serious.

The young man not only began to observe the place where he came in a hurry.

Under the dim lights that were turned on for some reason, the whole room felt strangely cramped and depressing.

Coupled with the ticking sound, it makes people feel uncomfortable all over.

Finally, the boy couldn't bear it anymore.

He felt that if he kept listening to it, if the masked man didn't come, he would go crazy first. It has never been difficult for ninjas to identify their location by listening to their voices.

The boy who tried to calm down and decided to solve the problem of the strange sound first quickly found the source of the sound.

It is located in the bathtub in the second half of the bathroom.

Because there was a shower curtain, he didn't notice there was a bathtub behind it at first.

I was scared to death, it turned out to be a bathtub.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

But he soon realized something was wrong.

How could there be a faucet that was not screwed properly at this time?

Moreover……

What he realized when he came back to his senses was that although this bathroom was clean, there was always a smell that was not unfamiliar to him.

The boy swallowed.

Covering his mouth, he leaned over silently.

Behind the curtain, which was not illuminated by the dim light, there was an invisible shadow.

The boy didn't want to care, but somehow he just couldn't control himself and look away.

Perhaps it was the fear and depression brought about by the unknown that drove him crazy.

The young man finally couldn't help but crossed the curtain.

——He finally saw his true form behind him.

It was a dead body.

And the most horrifying thing is that where the eyes should have been on the body, there are now two holes.

Apparently not only was he killed, but his eyes were gouged out. The dark eyes looked straight at the boy as if they were expressing resentment and unwillingness.

The boy almost gritted his teeth to prevent himself from screaming.

He stared wide-eyed, tears welling up in his eyes silently.

So vicious.

unforgivable!

What Uchiha is most proud of is his strength and eyes.

But this man gouged out the eyes of his people...

Tears snaked down her cheeks and finally fell into her collar.

Fear, resentment, horror... so many emotions gathered together that the young man finally turned red.

He didn't understand why they had to suffer this.

Countless emotions surged toward him, almost overwhelming him.

But this is not the end.

Because at some point, footsteps sounded again, and they were extremely close to him, almost... no!

It's basically behind him!

The boy turned around as if he was electrocuted, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.

The masked man, who could almost be said to be the embodiment of fear, was very close behind him.

He could even see clearly the viciousness in the man's eyes that were only exposed outside the mask - just one look made the boy feel as if he had fallen through the ice.

The body seemed to be frozen and unresponsive.

Then the sound of chains.

As if the chains were soaked in blood and smelled bad

Color like brown.

But the young man knew that it was not a simple 'color', but the traces left by blood drying up time and time again.

The man's hand holding the chain was stained red with blood.

Red blood continued to fall from his hands.

The indescribable huge impact finally broke the young man's ability to bear it.

His eyes turned completely red, and the 'magatama' that Uchihas dreamed of appeared.

Disgust at being powerless and angry at what happened to the tribe.

There was also overwhelming fear.

It completely met all the conditions needed for Uchiha to open his eyes.

——It’s just that neither the person involved nor Uchiha Fugaku, who wanted to see all this the most, couldn’t laugh at this time.

The short yet long eye-opening test that is difficult to describe in words has finally come to an end. (temporary)

See the results here.

Uchiha Fugaku let out a long, long sigh of relief.

Although this is not something that can be explained as "congratulations", it has opened my eyes and it can be regarded as a result.

He and the tribesmen trapped inside finally no longer have to endure torture.

After all, no one would like to look at their own 'tragic death' body over and over again. However, in order to adjust the angle and effect, Uchiha Fugaku was forced to watch the scene of his tragic death several times and was asked to give his opinions.

It depends on how you die and what you die like, so that you can stimulate the two of them better and more effectively, so that the "plot" can go on perfectly.

"..."

Yes, I feel complicated.

It's hard to finish in a word, and I can't stop talking.

Especially when I remember that I asked for this.

'As long as it can open Uchiha's eyes, anything will do'

Uchiha Fugaku really didn't know how to face himself when he said these words.

Judging from the results, this is certainly good.

But if the process is also mentally stressful, then...

Uchiha Fugaku closed his eyes.

Although this was a series of illusions, he felt as if half his life had been long and tiring.

Fortunately it's over.

He looked at Ugetsu who was still talking to Shisui.

"Then...is this the end?"

"Well, let's do this this time."

Ugetsu closed the notepad where Tutu drew a lot of things.

"Or does Mr. Fugaku have other plans?"

She tilted her head and said in a bit of embarrassment:

"If there's anything else you want to add, that's okay...?"

"No, no, no, that's enough."

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head in panic, with such force that for a moment people worried that he would shake his head off.

"That's enough."

Afraid that he didn't speak clearly enough, he repeated it again and added the word 'very'.

Without even waiting for what Yuyue was saying, he hurried to various illusions to get people.

Young Uchiha, we can't suffer like this anymore!

But Uchiha Fugaku soon discovered that the matter could not end immediately just because he explained the situation and was ready to end it.

At least that was the case for the Uchihas.

In a certain sense, the Uchihas who 'can't bring back the nine-tailed beast' have always had their own judgment in terms of obsession.

For example, ‘You said illusion is illusion? I thought you, the Uchiha clan leader, were created by genjutsu'

It's like a boy who failed to break through the level for the 68th time.

After hearing Uchiha Fugaku's words, not only did he have no intention of ending, but he looked wary.

"I'm telling you, I won't give up - even if you transform into a clan leader, don't even try to lie to me."

The young man had an expression on his face that said, "I've already seen how bad you are."

Writing a sign to mock myself before was not enough.

At this moment, seeing that he is about to pass the level, he still fabricates the image of the clan leader.

Come to persuade yourself...

What a cunning plan.

But it doesn't matter, he is an Uchiha, the Uchiha who is the best at illusions and the best at solving illusions.

I won’t be deceived by this little trick!

Seeing that I can pass the level even if I work hard - even if the legendary Madara Uchiha comes, don't expect him to change his mind!

"Can……"

"There is no but! If you are really the patriarch, how could you stop me from defeating the enemy!"

The young man said righteously.

Match your eye movements.

Just like Uchiha Fugaku, the person who persuaded him not to suffer anymore was really guilty.

——Just because I am the clan leader, I came to save you from the sea of ​​misery!

Uchiha Fugaku felt bitter.

He had to give up first and find another person to persuade him.

Maybe he would give up when he couldn't hold it anymore.

So he came to another place.

Looking at the training room that had been almost razed to the ground, Uchiha Fugaku was silent for another second.

But he soon remembered his responsibility as the leader of the clan, stepped forward, and also expressed the truth that the truth was over and that it was actually just an illusion.

The Uchiha girl, whose eyes were red, her magatama was moving around, and her hands were full of ninja tools, did not question the authenticity of Uchiha Fugaku like the previous boys of the same race did.

Not only was there no need to question, her attitude was also very calm and sincere.

"I see."

Uchiha Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief.

At least there is one that is quite normal.

However, the next second, the girl spoke again:

“But cleaning must be thorough.”

Uchiha Fugaku:...?

"But this is an illusion."

This is an illusion!

"I understand what you mean." The girl nodded, "But can't the illusion be eliminated?"

"Whether it's real or an illusion, if something is dirty, it must be cleaned."

"This cannot be compromised even if the clan leader says it himself."

Uchiha Fugaku: "...What?"

He was even more confused for a moment.

No, this is an illusion.

Do you understand illusion?

That’s fake!

However, the girl is still explaining according to her own logic: "Fake mess is also mess - besides, how can you judge that this mess must be fake?"

"All unclean things should not exist in the world. Whether it is the illusion world or the real world." The girl said, and with lightning speed, she attached a detonating talisman to the garbage in the corner.

"It's okay. If you have something to do, you can leave first. I'll just take care of it myself." Her freshly minted Sharingan flashed, "Just like this - burn the garbage!"

boom!

The detonator made a sizzling sound before exploding into a ball of fire.

The dark garbage in the corner also disappeared.

"Clean up the trash!"

The Fuma Shuriken flew out and scraped off the stains on the wall along with the inside of the wall.

"clean!"

"disinfect!"

"Sterilize!"

Every time the girl uttered a word, there was a piece of 'dirty' along with the place where it was located.

——If it weren’t for illusion, this house would have collapsed at least a hundred and eighty times.

After several outbursts, the girl finally calmed down again. Only then did she notice Uchiha Fugaku who was still beside her.

"Master Patriarch, do you have anything else to do?"

"No, it's nothing."

——How dare he have anything?

"Then leave this place to me, just go ahead and do your job." The girl said seriously, "Don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will definitely live up to the name of Uchiha and clean everything here thoroughly. !”

"If necessary, I will even

You can also clean it now. "

Uchiha Fuyue: "..."

Where are you cleaning?

Are you basically asking me to be cleaned up too?

He felt a little lucky for a moment.

I'm glad this is a fantasy world and not reality.

Otherwise, according to her 'cleaning' method, half...at least a third of Uchiha Street will be destroyed, right?

Uchiha Fugaku then came to the third, fourth and fifth clan members with his last glimmer of hope.

What if one of them is still normal?

Although opening the eyes requires very extreme conditions, and sometimes people go berserk... but I have never heard that opening the eyes also has the effect of evaporating sanity.

There has to be one that’s normal, right?

However, after experiencing "How can the clan leader appear in front of me even though he is dead? Am I also dead?" and "You said you are the clan leader, can you provide evidence that you are the Uchiha clan leader?" After all, I can say that I am Uchiha Madara even if I say it.’ After a series of blows, he gave up.

After all, he can neither prove that he is not dead.

There is no evidence that is convincing enough to prove to everyone that he, Uchiha Fugaku, is Uchiha Fugaku.

tired.

Uchiha Fugaku chose to give up.

Although several people are in good condition now.

But the burden of the Sharingan does not diminish just because it is just an illusion.

When they are exhausted and their bodies can no longer bear the burden, they will naturally become honest.

Uchiha Fugaku's shoulders slumped.

He felt like he was bearing far more weight than a clan leader should bear.

So he briefly exchanged greetings with Ugetsu, indicating that he would soon ask the knowledgeable elders to take charge of the follow-up, and then entrusted Ugetsu and Shisui to pay attention to the clan's follow-up during this period.

He chose to leave temporarily.

——If he doesn't calm down, he feels like he's going crazy.

Looking at the lonely figure of Uchiha Fugaku leaving, Ugetsu suddenly said: "Why do I feel..."

"what?"

"Clan Chief Fugaku looks like he has aged several years all of a sudden."

Looking at the back of the departing figure, he doesn't look like the leader of the Uchiha clan at all, but more like a frustrated middle-aged man...

"Is it true that my arrangements have gone too far, and even he can't bear it?"

"how come."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and comforted.

"The clan leader will only be happy if so many clan members can open their eyes, and they can test a way to open their eyes without sacrificing themselves."

"Maybe you're just too happy to be like this?"

"?"

Ugetsu raised an eyebrow.

Happy... like a downtrodden middle-aged man?

"After all, he is the clan leader, so he should behave like a clan leader."

The boy continued to explain with a smile.

"You can't be like us young people, who are overjoyed at every little thing - as a patriarch, no matter how happy you are, you should only be able to show a little restraint on the surface."

He also made a 'little bit' gesture.

——I understand if you say that.

Ugetsu suddenly realized.

Uchiha's idol baggage!

Think about the characteristics of the Uchiha clan, and then think about the identity of the other clan leader...

That's really not surprising.

Maybe it was because he was trying so hard to hold back his ecstasy that he could act so depressed.

As for the hasty departure...

Maybe he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold back his laughter, so he wanted to go to a place where no one was around.

Shisui was also an Uchiha, so how could he understand it wrong?

Understand, this all makes sense.

After straightening things out, Yuyue was no longer surprised, but instead sighed:

"Master Patriarch, it's very hard too."

"After all, he is the patriarch."

The boy and the girl also walked back while talking. The wind blew and their voices gradually disappeared.

——In the early morning of the next day.

Many Konoha residents woke up from their sleep.

Not that they had nightmares.

Instead, a burst of laughter came from nowhere.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha--"

"I! Passed! Closed!"

——It’s so early in the morning, isn’t someone going crazy?
