Naruto: Crossing the Still Water, Starting from the Blind

Outside the tent set up by Konoha for emergencies, the bodies of seven root members were piled up!

The Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, lowered his eyes and said nothing. He consulted Mito Kaden, and Koharu went to bed with different expressions.

Danzo walked up to Hiruzen on crutches and scolded: "Hiruzhan, this is what your trusted Itachi and Shisui did! They openly attacked me, killed my men, and threatened to kill you." This Hokage has pulled down his horse and is not willing to let all the ninjas of Konoha and even innocent people be buried with him. Uchiha has already had his soul taken away by ghosts and gods, how long will you continue to be indecisive?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured: "It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this, Shisui and Itachi, they regard the peace of Konoha and the ninja world higher than the survival of Uchiha, how can it be like this!"

Danzo tapped his cane on the ground: "In the face of bloody facts, you still defend those two rebels!!"

Hiruzen raised his eyes and asked: "Duanzo...you wouldn't kill your own men and then pour dirty water on Uchiha, right?"

"You..." Danzo was speechless for a moment. To be honest, he had really planned this!

"Hmph... you can't believe me, that's fine, then just see for yourself!"

As he spoke, Danzo used his crutch to lift open the shroud of a deceased person, revealing the edge of a sword sealing his throat.

"Look, this knife wound was caused by Shisui's Instant Slash. Even you and I can't imitate something. How can it be fake?"

Hiruzen stepped forward to check, and his heart suddenly went cold.

Although he didn't want to admit it...but the one who killed this root member was undoubtedly Shisui!

After a long time, Hiruzen sighed: "Oh, how could it become like this..."

At this time, Mito Kaden and Koharu came forward.

"Thankfully we trust those two people so much. This is how they repay the village's courtesy!"

"There's nothing more to say, Hiruzen. Fugaku must have ordered them to do this. Do they want to behead our senior officials so that everything after that will be easier?"

"The wishful thinking is really good. No matter what you say, they can't let them succeed! We must strike first!"

"Use all the power of Konoha to eradicate all Uchiha!"

Danzo and the two advisors put pressure together. Hiruzen knew that the situation was imminent and there was no room for change.

Hiruzen sighed: "Oh, without Itachi's help, the ANBU alone cannot handle this matter... Kakashi."

Upon hearing the call, behind Hiruzen, Kakashi, who was an ANBU at the time, stepped forward and knelt down on one knee: "Hokage-sama!"

Hiruzen took out the pipe that was always in his mouth, looked up at the deserted night sky, and gave a serious order: "Go, inform the clan leaders of each major ethnic group, summon the elites of each ethnic group, and launch... a clearing operation against Uchiha!"

Hearing this, Kakashi froze in place.

The meaning of Uchiha to him is self-evident!

"Go!"

"Yes……!"

Kakashi could only hold back his grief and accept this order.

When turning around, Kakashi prayed in his heart: Why is this happening... Obito, if you have a spirit in heaven, please let your people change their minds!

As soon as Kakashi left, an Anman in white fell in front of Hiruzen and brought a bombshell: "Hokage-sama! The village's laboratory for studying the cells of the first generation of adults was attacked by unidentified ninjas! Existing samples of the cells of the first generation of adults , were all taken away!”

Hiruzen was shocked: "What did you say...!?"

How could it be possible...at this time!

Could it be that... it's Orochimaru?

Not surprisingly, Hiruzen thought of his former beloved disciple, the man who was obsessed with forbidden research, cut off the relationship between master and disciple, and betrayed Konoha!

And Danzo, who is inextricably linked to Orochimaru, can't help but wonder: Why didn't Orochimaru inform me in advance of this action?

But regardless of Hiruzen or Danzo, there is a consensus at the moment that Uchiha is Konoha's priority problem!

Hiruzen calmed down and said: "I understand, we will investigate this matter after it's over."

……

In the evening, the Uchiha clan.

Fugaku walked out of the house and prepared to rush to Nanga Shrine to host tonight's gathering. He had decided to officially announce tonight that Uchiha would launch a coup against Konoha!

Walking on the secluded path, Fugaku was worried, which he could not express to his tribe.

"As a bridge of communication between Uchiha and the village, Itachi is under pressure from both sides. What choice will he make? I think there will be an answer soon."

"But no matter what, Itachi, you will take good care of Sasuke, right?"

"The only thing that makes me undecided is Shisui's death. It's still full of mysteries. Other tribesmen can't see the truth and can only make baseless guesses. But that can't be hidden from my eyes. That suicide note was written by Itachi himself. Yes, and...he activated the Mangekyō Sharingan!"

"Itachi is a kind child... He will never kill Shisui with his own hands, but he must have witnessed Shisui's death with his own eyes. Shisui, what exactly did he go through?"

The sound of a gust of wind rustling leaves interrupted Fugaku's thoughts.

What concerned him was not the gust of wind... but the breath hidden in the wind!

Only the top ninjas can do this, hiding their aura extremely subtly, as if they only reveal their aura for a moment just so that he can properly detect it!

He knew...that the people hiding in the darkness were unfathomably powerful, even stronger than him, the Uchiha clan leader.

Fugaku stopped, Zi!His eyes turned to Sharingan in response, looking at the darkness around the corner, he said in a deep voice: "Come out!"

In the darkness, the figure came out.

After seeing the man's true appearance, even Fugaku could no longer hide his surprise!

"Shisui...are you still alive!?"

Ruoshui stood in front of Fugaku and greeted politely: "Master Fugaku, I appreciate your concern. I am still alive."

Fugaku lowered his eyes: "Itachi, do you know about this?"

Ruoshui nodded: "I know, he is basically with me these days."

Fugaku suddenly realized: "I see. No wonder Itachi's behavior in the past few days has been so weird. Even if he is misunderstood by the tribe and regarded as the real culprit who killed you, he can still deal with it calmly. It turns out that it was agreed upon by you. You must You are planning something secretly, and now that you have appeared, can you tell me the truth?"

Ruoshui leaned his back against the wall and held his arms in front of his chest: "Lord Fugaku, take the tribe and leave Konoha. Let's build a new village. I have already thought of a name. It will be called 'Guangyin Village' , if you are willing, you will inherit the title of the first-generation eye shadow..."

Listening to Shisui speaking such shocking words in a calm tone, Fugaku couldn't help but feel speechless.

But immediately, Fugaku gave a negative reply: "Uchiha's roots are in Konoha, and Konoha owes Uchiha a Hokage! If it's not Konoha, it's not Hokage, then it's meaningless. Do you understand? Shisui, give up. Those unrealistic fantasies, you are a member of Uchiha, follow me and fight for Uchiha, this is your destiny!"

"What a pity. My roots are not in Konoha. I have no attachment to Hokage. I am not a member of Uchiha. I only fight for myself. My destiny is decided by myself!"

Ruoshui said regretfully, his back left the wall, faced Fugaku, and slowly raised his head.

"Since you have no intention of doing this, let me inherit the name of light!"

The moment his 'eyes' opened, light enveloped him, and Fugaku's mind fell instantly!

- Don't be a god!
