They went to the place where they had tied those chunin. Since quite some time had passed, all three of them were wide awake by now, but they were unable to free themselves because of the chakra-restraining seals placed on them.
'Being a disciple of a seal master comes with many privileges, one of them being the chance to buy various seals at a discount,' Kaida thought when he saw how effective those seals actually were.
Without them, there was a chance that those ninjas may have used some jutsu to free themselves.
Shisui saw that those three were wide awake. When they saw Shisui standing there, they knew none of them had any chance to run now, let alone complete their mission.
When they understood this, there was no movement in their bodies; they had lost their will to live, and if not for the cloth in their mouths, they may have actually committed suicide by now.
Shisui activated his Sharingan and once again put them under his genjutsu. The only difference was that this time, they would be out cold for much more time than when Kaida did the same.
Since there were three chunins, Kaida made a shadow clone to carry one, then three of them carried the three chunin on their shoulders and went toward the same direction Kaida had the missions.
Shisui was taking the lead the whole time, while Kaida and his clone were following him. Due to the tense moment they had just faced, no one was in any mood for small talk.
After traveling for some time and taking various turns, Shisui and Kaida were standing in front of a forest.
"Is our hideout inside the forest?" Kaida asked.
'Hahaha, no," Shisui laughed a little and then went to a tree and peeled its bark, then placed his ring on a mark on the tree.
As soon as he did that, the ground near them began shaking, the ground parted, and then something similar to a door became visible to them.
"That was so fucking cool, brother," Kaida said.
"But brother, we brought them to our hideout. What if they had any tracking seals on them and Root finds about this base?" Kaida asked.
"If tracking someone so far away was possible, then we would not lose a single ninja during various missions. It is almost impossible to track someone from such a long distance, so don't worry," Shisui said, and then opened the door.
As Kaida had expected, there were stairs leading downwards. After going down for some time, they came in front of a door. Shisui knocked and said, "Bull's eye is never red."
"Why?"
"Because we have those eyes."
"Shisui, my boy, long time no see," a middle-aged man came out of the door, then gestured for both Shisui and Kaida to follow him inside. After some more walking, they went to a cozy-looking room.
The middle-aged man sat on a chair and gestured for both Kaida and Shisui to do the same.
Kaida's clone placed the chunin on the ground, just like Shisui and Kaida, and then dispersed itself. Then Kaida and Shisui also took a seat each.
"So, now do you want to tell me about these four little surprises you got for me?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Yes, let me first introduce my little brother to you, Minoru Sama. He is the son of Aunt Aiko," Shisui said.
As soon as Minoru heard this, he suddenly turned toward Kaida and then scanned him from head to toe.
"I can certainly see her image in this boy," Minoru said.
"Kaida, he is Minoru Sama, one of the elders of the Uchiha clan and an old friend of your grandfather. After her parents passed away, he was the one who took care of your mother," Shisui said.
Kaida did a 90-degree bow and then said, "Nice to meet you, Grandpa."
"Hahaha, even though he looks like Aiko, his personality is exactly opposite of hers. He must take this from his father," Minoru said, and then stood up from his seat and went to Kaida.
Kaida thought that he wanted to say something to him, but Minoru just pinched his cheeks.
"My grandchild is so cute."
Kaida didn't speak anything; he also had a grandpa in his previous life who used to pinch his cheeks all the time while saying the same things.
After some time, Minoru went back to his seat and asked, "But I don't think you are here for a family reunion, right?"
"Yes, Minoru Sama, actually..." Shisui told the whole story to Minoru, about how Kaida tried to save the Uchiha's reputation, then coming onto Danzo's radar, to the latest attack.
"That fucker is actually trying to put his hand on my child. It looks like we have been silent for way too much time. I think it's time for us to show him why the Uchihas were once the most feared clan in the whole world.
Are these fuckers the ones that attacked him?" Minoru asked, his grandfatherly aura completely gone, what remained was a fierce aura of a general who is about to go to war.
'It is not just the mistreatment the Uchiha got, almost all Uchihas are war-hungry people,' Kaida thought, easily forgetting about the excitement he had at the thought of having a good fight just some time before.
"Yes, Minoru Sama, but please refrain yourself from killing them. It was really hard for Kaida to capture them alive. We could use them against Danzo this time."
Sigh
"I don't want to listen about your schemes. Just come and tell me if things go south," Minoru said, and then looked toward Kaida.
"You have grown quite well, boy, fighting and even winning against so many Root ninjas at such a young age. Your future is limitless. I am sure Aiko would be very happy for you in heaven," Minoru said once again, focusing on Kaida since he can't do anything to those chunins.
