Help?
Naruto looked at Dan's back and was confused. He was just a little kid who didn't know anything. What could he do to help?
However.
The uncle's recognition of him still made Naruto very happy.
Aiya.
Until Dan disappeared at the end of the street, Naruto finally remembered and forgot to say thank you to him.
Just as he was feeling upset, the previous barbecue employee came out with a food box.
"Little devil, hurry up and leave."
The employee pushed the barbecue set to Naruto and urged him. A trace of jealousy flashed across his face.
This luxurious set set was priced at five thousand Ryo, which was equivalent to an ordinary person's monthly salary. Not many people in the entire Konoha could afford it.
This little devil really picked up a great bargain.
Naruto took the heavy food box, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he asked the staff curiously,
"Um... may I ask about Mr.Dan from just now, where does he live?"
From the mouth of the staff, Naruto learned that Dan had a Gym, and silently remembered the address of the Body Modification department in his heart.
He was too lucky today to meet a kind person.
One had to know.
Ever since Naruto could remember, other than the kind old grandpa who occasionally came to visit him, no one had ever been so kind to him.
So, he decided to find a time to visit and say thank you to Mr. Dan.
Snap.
Naruto opened the lid of the food box, and the rich smell of barbecue entered his nose, making his index finger move.
He finally didn't have to eat instant noodles.
Naruto sniffed and was so moved that he wanted to cry.
Oh right, do you want to share such delicious barbecue with your friends?
No, he didn't have any friends.
Thinking of this, Naruto's expression became gloomy again.
He carried the food box, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, he walked towards the small apartment he lived in.
Uchiha's land.
Dan brought the fruit basket to the entrance of the police department building. After the guard recognized him, he hurriedly greeted him.
Dan was now Uchiha's big shot.
"Where is the recuperation room? I came to see Itachi and Shisui." Dan asked.
After entering the building, Fugaku appeared in a few steps.
"I'll take you there."
After knowing the purpose of Dan's visit, he said with a smile. Along the way, he introduced the personnel and departments of the police department to Dan as the captain of the police department.
In the recuperation room.
Itachi, who had recovered from his injuries, was standing in front of the hospital bed, taking care of Shisui.
"Itachi, I'm sorry for disappointing you. I failed to defeat Dan. He... is too strong."
Shisui lay on the bed, his face pale and apologetic.
"You have tried your best, Shisui. Rest in peace and recover as soon as possible." Itachi comforted, not blaming Shisui.
Alas.
Shisui sighed.
He stared at Itachi, thought for a while, and said again,
"I talked to Lord Hokage earlier and got permission to withdraw from the daily tasks and investigate Uchiha's movements freely. But I can't report to him now, so I can only ask you to do this."
While lying in bed.
Shisui and Itachi also heard the rumors in the village, saying that Uchiha, who had three pairs of Mangekyo, had ulterior motives, which made the two of them anxious.
This rumor was not completely true.
At the very least, Shisui had always firmly stood on the side of the village.
Therefore.
Shisui hoped that Itachi could tell his thoughts to the Third generation as soon as possible and explain the misunderstanding, so as to dispel the latter's doubts.
"I understand."
Itachi nodded solemnly. He stood up and walked towards the door.
However, he was stopped by Tetsuka, who was guarding the door.
"Clan leader said that you and Shisui can't go anywhere during this period of time. Please return to your room."
Tetsuka's expression was cold.
Itachi was unhappy and wanted to break out, but thinking that this was the police department, even if he put down Tetsuka, he might not be able to get out of this building.
Helplessly, Itachi could only give up temporarily and wait for a better opportunity.
After a while.
Creak.
The door of the recuperation room was pushed open.
Under the astonished gazes of Itachi and Shisui, Dan, who were carrying fruit baskets, walked in together with Fugaku.
Uchiha's "three pairs", Mangekyo, once again gathered together.
"Yo, you got out of bed so quickly. As expected of my nephew."
Dan glanced at Itachi and thought that he had beaten him too lightly.
Itachi's face darkened and he did not say a word.
"Itachi, why don't you greet your uncle?" Fugaku frowned and reprimanded his son for being rude.
Hearing this, Itachi reluctantly called out, "Hello, Uncle."
"Good boy."
Duan reached out his big hand and rubbed Itachi's head, letting his nephew roll to the side to cool down.
Then, he looked at Shisui, who was lying on the bed.
After a few seconds of silence.
"Shisui, let me ask you."
"Do you think that with the strength of Clan leader, you and I, we can lead Uchiha to overthrow the current higher-ups of Konoha and replace him?" asked Dan.
Shisui was stunned. He had not expected Dan to be so direct.
He had actually considered this question, and the conclusion was... there was a certain possibility.
As long as Shisui seized the opportunity, he would be able to control two of Konoha's upper echelons, such as the third generation Hokage and Danzo.
Not to mention, the ability of Mangekyo that Dan and Clan leader had not displayed might be even stronger.
However, in the face of Dan's temptation, Shisui finally shook his head and gave his answer,
"I don't agree with Uchiha starting a coup. I believe that between the family and the village, there must be a way to achieve peace."
He stared at Dan, his gaze unwavering, as if there was a fire burning in his eyes.
"Shisui, you..." Fugaku wanted to say something but hesitated. In his opinion, Shisui's character was too stubborn.
Dan was not surprised.
After Uchiha awakened Mangekyo, the abilities he obtained were usually very focused, related to the character or wish of the person who opened his eyes.
Awakening the pupil technique of Kotoamatsukami means that Shisui's will can never be changed by anyone or anything.
Unless.
Only if he let Shisui die once and let him live again would there be a possibility of change.
If he died, then there was no need.
But Kotoamatsukami, it must be taken away.
Thinking of this.
"Since that's the case, I have nothing to say to you."
Dan said. He immediately stretched out a hand and leaned towards Shisui's eyes.
When Itachi saw Dan's actions, he shouted in shock, "Uncle, what are you going to do?"
Shisui also had a bad feeling and subconsciously wanted to activate Mangekyo.
Just at this moment.
The World!
Dan glanced at him and activated Time Freeze without any hesitation, turning the entire ward into a world of black and white. Everything froze.
Swish. Swish.
During the five seconds of Time Freeze, he attacked twice in a row, forcibly tearing Shisui's eyes off his eye sockets.
Time resumed flowing.
"Ah!"
Shisui let out a scream. There were only two black bloody holes left in his eyes. He covered his eyes and curled up in pain.
In Dan hands, there were two bloody eyeballs.
This scene happened too suddenly.
"Shisui!"
Itachi let out a sad cry and rushed to the bedside, helplessly watching Shisui curled up in pain.
Then.
He suddenly turned his head and stared at Dan, angrily asking,
"Uncle, how could you do such a thing?!"
Driven by anger, Itachi's dark eyes also turned into a scarlet red Three Tomoe, as if he was going to fight with Dan in the next second.
Dan looked at his nephew's eyes calmly and sneered,
"Seeing you so angry, I thought you were going to awaken Mangekyo on the spot. It turns out that I was thinking too much. It seems that Shisui doesn't have that much weight in your heart."
When Itachi heard this, he clenched his fists and his nails dug deep into his flesh.
"Itachi, don't."
Shisui suddenly grabbed Itachi's arm and persuaded the latter not to go against him for his sake.
That was no different from asking for trouble.
Dan glanced at Shisui and said in a flat tone,
"From now on, I will temporarily take care of your Mangekyo Sharingan so that you won't do anything bad to Uchiha. When you have thought things through, I will consider returning it to you."
After saying this, he took out a glass container with sterilized organ preservation liquid.
Plop.
After putting Shisui's two eyeballs into the container, Dan put the container into the storage scroll and kept it close to his body.
This scroll could only be opened with Dan's chakra.
Seeing this scene, Itachi felt despair in his heart and could only look at his father for help.
"Sigh."
Fugaku sighed and said to Itachi, "Itachi, I think what your uncle did is right.".
In a very special period, you must do very special things.
Shisui posed a threat to the survival of Uchiha, but he, Clan leader, could not bear to do it, and finally let Dan come out and be the evil person.
Fugaku was grateful to Dan, and of course, he had to protect the latter.
Itachi's despair had yet to reach its peak.
Until Dan said what he wanted to say next.
"Right, brother-in-law, I suggest that you write a resignation letter and send it to Hokage building and resign Itachi's job in Anbu. Otherwise, this kid will sooner or later be incited by the higher-ups of Konoha."
Dan patted Fugaku on the shoulder and said earnestly that he could give Itachi to him to cultivate.
When Fugaku heard this, he agreed on the spot and said frankly,
"Of course, it is good that you, the strongest trainer of Uchiha, can personally guide Itachi's cultivation."
After that, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
However, Itachi was shocked and his face turned pale in an instant.
At this moment, his father and uncle smiled like two demons in his eyes.
For Itachi.
Joining Anbu was the first step for him to become Hokage and eliminate the prejudice the village had against Uchiha.
Now, just as he took this step, his uncle and father grabbed one hand and pulled him back. This meant that Itachi's dream was shattered.
The two of them, whose hearts were like dead ashes, walked out of the door of the recuperation room with Fugaku.
"Clan leader, what happened?"
Tetsuka, who was at the door, was shocked. He had heard Shisui's scream outside the door just now.
"Get someone to bandage Shisui's eyes immediately. Also, don't tell anyone about this. Do you understand?"
Fugaku ordered Tetsuka with a serious face.
Tetsuka walked into the room and saw the two shocking holes on Shisui's face. He immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
Was it... Dan?
Fugaku invited Dan to the office.
"Dan, you are not related to Shisui by blood. If you transplant his Mangekyo Sharingan, the probability of failure is very high. You must be careful."
As soon as Fugaku entered the door, he warned Dan solemnly.
Obviously.
He believed that the real purpose of Dan stealing Shisui's eyes was to get the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Brother-in-law, what are you talking about?"
Dan shook his head and denied, "I never thought of transplanting Shisui's eyes. Didn't I say that as long as he figured it out, i would return the eyes to him?"
In fact.
He didn't have that condition even if he wanted to transplant. His own Mangekyo hadn't even opened it yet.
When Fugaku heard this, he could not help but be stunned.
"But then again, is there any extra Sharingan in the clan?" Dan suddenly asked.
He had already obtained Shisui's Mangekyo. Next, he should think of a way to change Kakashi's eyes.
"This... of course there is."
Fugaku was stunned for a moment, and then took the initiative to explain to Dan.
Uchiha was not like Hyuga, who did not have a division system, nor did they have Caged Bird Cursed Seal.
After all, the most important thing for Uchiha was to loyalty to the clan.
Therefore, when Uchiha ninjas died in the battlefield, their Sharingan would not be destroyed by something like a curse seal and would usually be recycled by his clansmen.
Even if Sharingan was taken away by others, it would be difficult for them to exert its strength without the body of Uchiha.
On the contrary, it would make Sharingan a burden on his body.
Geniuses like Kakashi who could adapt to Sharingan were the minority of the minority.
Over the years, more than twenty pairs of Sharingan had been saved in the safety vault of Uchiha's clan, from one to Three Tomoe.
"Dan, are you planning to temporarily change a pair of Sharingan for Shisui?"
Fugaku was wrong again.
Dan shook his head.
"Brother-in-law, do as you see fit for Shisui's surgery. Just prepare another Three Tomoe Sharingan for me, Please."
After saying that, he prepared to leave.
"Wait."
Fugaku stopped him and invited him to participate in tonight's family meeting. When the time came, they would discuss how to deal with it. Recently, there were rumors about Uchiha in the village.
"It's not convenient for me tonight, so I won't go."
Dan casually found an excuse and slipped away without looking back under the helpless gaze of Fugaku.
The night fell.
In the evening wind, Obito stood in the middle of the mountain, overlooking Konoha Village below.
White Zetsu and Black Zetsu, who had merged together again, emerged from the ground in the shape of a housefly.
"Obito, in order to better deal with Uchiha clan, it is time to take back your left eye." Black Zetsu suggested in a low voice.
Kakashi monitored Uchiha clan, but was reduced to a prisoner, and almost got his Sharingan taken away.
This matter had been told to Obito through White Zetsu.
White Zetsu also echoed in a frivolous tone,
"Yes, yes. That Mangekyo, who was awakened together with Kakashi and Obito, used it all day to copy Ninjutsu. It's really a great waste."
When Obito heard this, he snorted disdainfully and said, "Kakashi is a fake."
However.
He then changed the topic, saying that he did not intend to recover his left eye for the time being.
"Why?" Black-and-White Zetsu asked in unison.
They had long been very puzzled.
It was reasonable to say that on the night when Obito opened Mangekyo a few years ago, after killing Anbu, he should kill Kakashi and take back his left eye.
But he let Kakashi go, and let the latter use his Sharingan.
Obito was too lazy to explain, but he could not stand the two of them asking, so he said coldly:
"Hmph, because I want Kakashi to suffer for the rest of his life.
As long as the Sharingan is still with him, he will not forget my existence, let alone that night, he killed Rin with his own hands.
I want him to spend the rest of his life in pain and self-blame."
After hearing this, White Zetsu clapped his hands and said, "As expected of you, Obito."
However, Black Zetsu's eyes flashed.
He could see that under Obito's cruel and cold appearance, there was still a soft place in his heart, which was his old feelings for Kakashi.
In the end, Obito's will was still not as firm as Madara's.
"But the problem is, if one day Uchiha people regret it again and intend to take back Kakashi's eyes, and find out that it is a Mangekyo, what should we do then?"
Black Zetsu asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, Uchiha won't have that day."
"I want to completely start a war between Uchiha and Konoha. I want to use Konoha to get rid of Uchiha." Obito sneered.
He had done this on the night of Kyubi a few years ago. At that time, the time was not right. At worst, he could do it again now.
Just as he was speaking.
Boom.
An explosion suddenly came from afar, followed by flames that shot into the sky.
"That is... there seems to be a riot in the direction of the police prison?" Black Zetsu's eyes were sharp as he exclaimed in shock.
"Hehe, looks like I don't even need to make a move. Konoha and Uchiha will bite each other first."
Obito sneered again, knowing that there was going to be a good show to watch.
