Fugaku had always known.
His brother-in-law liked to exercise and had a good physical foundation.
But he also knew that Dan didn't even know how to make hand seals, and he couldn't even master the most basic three body techniques of ninjas. He was an absolute idiot in ninjutsu.
In the world of ninjas.
A person who didn't know any ninjutsu, no matter how strong his physical skills were, he wouldn't be able to go far.
This was because the upper limit had already been decided.
Only now did Fugaku realize that he had underestimated this brother-in-law.
According to the content reported by Inabi, just based on his attainments in physical skills, he was enough to become a Jonin. At the very least, he could become a special Jonin.
Thinking of this.
The always reserved Uchiha clan head also revealed a rare smile.
His wife Mikoto gave birth to two sons for him.
Whether it was Itachi or Sasuke, under the education of the couple, they became sensible and filial geniuses.
In order to thank Mikoto for her efforts and to make her happy, Fugaku even went against his principles and planned to open a back door for his brother-in-law and arrange him to work in the police department.
But now, he can use his strength to prove himself.
This way, Fugaku can take this opportunity to recruit his brother-in-law into the police department, and the clansmen will not gossip behind his back.
He decided to find a time to personally see Dan and settle this matter.
...
After reporting to Fugaku.
Inabi had just walked out of the captain's office when he went to see another person.
Yashiro Uchiha.
This person is the second-in-command of the police department, with strong analytical and commanding abilities, and he is a figure that even Uchiha Fugaku is ashamed of.
However.
In the end, the Uchiha clan respected power.
The strength of Yashiro was not as good as Fugaku, and after he was defeated in the competition for the position of patriarch, he had always been brooding.
In addition.
There was a bigger difference between Fugaku and Yashiro.
In the current Uchiha clan.
In the face of the suppression of Konoha's higher-ups, the clan formed a group, forming a radical and gentle faction.
The group led by Yashiro was the radical faction, and they advocated fighting against the higher-ups of Konoha with force. When necessary, they could even make a military coup and take back the power that originally belonged to the Uchiha.
The first expert of the clan, Shisui, was the representative of the Gentle Faction. They advocated positive dialogue with the higher-ups of Konoha, and solved a series of problems between the family and the village peacefully.
As for the clan leader, Fugaku, who was sandwiched between the two factions.
He seemed to be neutral and not partial to any side, but the actions he had always taken showed that he was clearly a moderate faction in his bones.
Therefore, the power of the moderate faction temporarily suppressed the radical faction.
Inabi was a member of the radical faction.
He came to the office of Yashiro and reported the broken matter again.
Yashiro frowned. After a moment of silence, he asked,
"This Uchiha Dan seems to be dissatisfied with his sister marrying Fugaku, so he moved out of the clan grounds, right?"
"According to my speculation, that is most likely the case," Inabi squinted his eyes and replied.
"Okay, find a chance to bring him to see me. Let us see what his position is. If even the brother-in-law of the patriarch is on our side, it will definitely make Fugaku loses face."
Yashiro's eyes flashed as he instructed.
"I will arrange it as soon as possible."
Inabi nodded.
Although he didn't like Dan, he had to admit the strength of the latter.
Inabi also understood that if the Uchiha clan wanted to successfully rebel, they had to do everything they could to unite the strength of all the clan members.
The night fell and the stars shone.
The Uchiha land.
Above the Naka river, there was a cliff hundreds of meters high, and the moonlight was cold.
Only Itachi and Shishui knew about this cliff. It was their secret meeting place.
"Itachi, congratulations on entering the Anbu Group. Have you adapted to it?"
Shisui asked with a smile, as if his brother was concerned about his younger brother.
"Yes, I'm fine." Itachi nodded and smiled sincerely in front of Shisui, who was like an elder brother.
Itachi joined the Anbu Group's inspection team with the help of Shishui.
After a simple greeting.
Itachi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up and mentioned his uncle - Uchiha Dan to Shishui.
"Hey, you're the second person to tell me about him today." Hearing this, Shisui was surprised.
Itachi was stunned and subconsciously asked, "Who was the first person?"
"The 3rd Hokage."
"..." Itachi fell into silence.
Seeing this, Shisui patted Itachi on the shoulder. "You should know about the death of several spies, right?"
Itachi nodded again.
Tonight, his father, contrary to his usual self, broke the family rules of not talking on the table and took the initiative to talk about it. He even praised his uncle.
"Itachi, if you are curious about Dan, why don't you just go and find him? After all... he is your uncle."
Shisui was a little confused.
Itachi shook his head. "I've looked for him. Uncle doesn't like me."
"I see."
"Then, do you want me to help you get in touch with him?"
He was not interested with Dan, but he cared about Itachi. In his heart, Itachi was equivalent to his own younger brother.
"Thank you, Shisui. But I will do it myself." Itachi tactfully refused.
"Yes, I believe you can solve it yourself."
Shisui revealed a sunny smile once again.
This matter was still a matter of Itachi. As an outsider, he really should not interfere too much.
In the light breeze of the night breeze, the two chatted for a while and agreed that if there was a chance, they would carry out the mission together as an Anbu.
"Then it's settled."
Shisui waved his hand and turned to leave under the gaze of itachi.
Under the moonlight, Itachi stared at Shisui's back as he left, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
Shisui was not only his close friend, but also his guide, who taught him his true will of fire.
...
Within the light of the lanterns in the night.
At the riverside of Konoha, there was a very prosperous commercial street. At night, there was a sea of people, eating, drinking, and having fun.
From afar, they could see the signboard of barbecue Q, smell the rich smell of barbecue coming from the store, and drift wantonly on the nearby streets.
"Please come in."
With a smile on his face, Dan and Samui walked into the store.
Unlike Ichiraku Ramen, which is relatively affordable, Yakiniku Q is considered a relatively high-end shop in Konoha, and it is not affordable by ordinary people.
"Do you two need a couple room? The room is more quiet and private, and it won't be disturbed." The shop assistant sized up Dan and Samui and took the initiative to recommend them.
Samui was stunned, and quickly waved her hand and said, "You misunderstood, we are not..."
"Oh, sorry." When the shop assistant heard this, he hurriedly apologized with a smile.
Samui glanced at Dan and saw that he was expressionless and his gaze did not fluctuate.
She looked around again, planning to choose a suitable seat for the two of them, but her gaze suddenly froze.
She accidentally discovered a person worth paying attention to.
