While the Fourth Hokage's Anbu was expanding, Shisui's fourth group also had their first meeting at the Anbu base.
In addition to the four Uchiha, there were three other newly joined Anbu.
Including Shisui as the Team Leader, the Fourth Team had a total of eight members, which was equivalent to two Anbu squads.
It was also because of Anbu's great expansion that there were so many people in the group.
In the beginning, there were only four members in the Third Team aside from the Team Leader, Ensui.
Since they were a new team, Shisui asked everyone to introduce themselves.
"I am Shisui Uchiha. My specialty is the Body Flicker Technique and Afterimage Clone. I will be your Team Leader from now on. If there is anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me." Shisui said with a gentle smile.
"Although I officially joined the team today, I'm already here not long after the training team was established, so I am quite familiar with the training team," Shisui said modestly.
Quite familiar was actually an understatement. He knew too well about the training team because Nagasawa dumped so many of his jobs to Shisui.
To prevent himself from making any mistakes, Shisui read all kinds of training teams' information.
"Since I already introduce myself, it's your turn next. Don't forget to mention what you are good at so that we can understand your ability better and make our cooperation during mission easier." Shisui smiled.
"Tetsumaki Uchiha, I'm good at Fire Release." After Shisui finished speaking, Tetsumaki Uchiha briefly introduced himself.
The three newly joined Anbu were slightly surprised. They didn't expect that there would be another Uchiha other than the Team Leader.
"Rai Uchiha, I'm good at Shuriken throwing and Fire Release." Immediately after, another Uchiha Shinobi began to introduce himself.
"Akira Uchiha, I'm good at Fire Release..."
"Ichirai Uchiha..."
The three other Uchiha Shinobi also introduced themselves.
The other three Shinobi were dumbfounded. What was going on?
Including the group leader, this team actually had five Uchiha members?
They had fallen into Uchiha's den.
Didn't all Uchiha Shinobi join Konoha's Military Police Force? Why did so many of them join Anbu?
Because they were too surprised, the three almost forgot that it was their turn to introduce themselves. They immediately introduced themselves after Shisui gave a sign.
The three newly joined Anbu were a little nervous as Uchiha Clan didn't have a good reputation in Konoha.
Uchiha Clan was notorious for being arrogant and condescending, so all sorts of negative impressions began to fill their minds.
They didn't care if there was only one Uchiha, but most of their Team members were an Uchiha.
At this moment, they might face an arduous path ahead.
At this time, they were already prepared for the worst. They only hoped that these five Uchiha would not go too far.
However, the negative impression in their minds didn't occur. The four Uchiha just barely talked and looked them in the eye.
The four Uchiha learned the Six Powers very quickly because they had awakened Sharingan, and sometimes, they would even give the other three some pointers.
This made them relieved. Their impression of the Uchiha Clan turned out to be false. In fact, they seemed to be quite friendly.
'It seems that Uchiha is not as aggressive and difficult to get along with as the rumors say.' This was what they were thinking at the moment.
And they weren't wrong. Although there were many aggressive people in the Uchiha Clan, there were some kind ones, too, among them.
However, the coup d'etat in the manga really was inevitable.
After being suspected of being the ones responsible for the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack, the Uchiha Clan was relocated to a compound along the village's outskirts, completely isolating them.
It would be one thing if they really did something, but they were not at fault. They even wanted to help during the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack but was stopped by Danzo.
Even a patient person would be furious after being wronged like this, let alone Uchiha Clan, who was subject to powerful emotions.
Even the originally calm Uchiha could only become calm in such a big environment.
Fugaku was helpless in the face of his clansmen's frustration toward the village and was forced to plan a coup d'etat that ended in a tragedy.
Seeing that his fellow clansmen got along well with the other members, Shisui smiled in relief.
He had been tortured over his Clan and Konoha for so long until this moment. Fortunately, Nagasawa led him out from the dark and showed him the light of hope.
Although it was just a glimmer of hope, it was much better than the complete darkness he was in before.
Because he was appointed as the Team Leader, Nagasawa gave him a week to familiarize himself with his team. He was exempted from all responsibilities for a week aside from his duty as a team leader.
However, it was hard for Ensui as he got more workload all of a sudden.
However, Nagasawa didn't think it was that bad for Ensui as he was single anyway. He had nothing to do, even when he went back early. It'd be better for him to familiarize himself before he got promoted as soon as possible.
The position of the Vice-Commander of the training team was still vacant.
Shisui looked around. The sun hadn't set yet. This was the first time he had gotten off work so early after joining the training team.
Shisui thought about it and felt that he had not seen Itachi in a while.
It couldn't be helped. After joining the training team, he had to work hard while training to improve his strength. He also had to spend some time analyzing Nagasawa and learning from him.
He went home late at night every day, and he still had to read some information and write down some stuff when he returned.
This kind of life was so fulfilling for him that he didn't realize how fast time went. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had not seen Itachi for a long time.
Shisui's figure flashed and soon arrived at the home of Fugaku Uchiha, Uchiha Clan's leader.
"Chief, is Itachi home?" Shisui asked politely.
"Ah, Shisui. There's no need to be so formal. You can just call me Uncle Fugaku if there is no one else around. He hasn't returned yet. Why are you looking for him?" a smile appeared on his stern face when Fugaku saw Shisui.
Nagasawa had told him that he appointed Shisui as the team leader of the new Uchiha, who joined the training team.
Moreover, when Nagasawa first talked with Fugaku about Uchiha, he said that he knew Shisui and that Shisui had a good personality.
This made Fugaku feel that Shisui had played a crucial role in this matter.
"Nothing much. I just want to see how his training is going." Shisui replied.
"How are Tetsumaki and the others doing in the training team?" Fugaku suddenly asked.
"They are all pretty good. They get along well with the other Anbu." Shisui nodded and replied.
"That's good." Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first step for Uchiha to walk out of this predicament. He couldn't allow bad things to happen.
Although the four of them were carefully selected, he was afraid that one of them was hiding their true nature and pretended to be docile and kind.
