He was about to say that he would have a fight now, but then he thought of something, showed a weird chuckle, and changed his words: "When school starts, I must let you get a good beating from me!"

No, even if I defeat Sasuke now, am I the only one who knows about it? If I get injured, problems may easily arise.

Gotta stay until school starts!

Under the watchful eyes of the whole class, I gave him a good beating to show him that I was not just a jerk.

I! But the seed of the next Hokage recognized by the Fifth Hokage personally, Uzumaki Naruto!

When he thought of girls like Sakura, Ino, and Hinata looking at him with blushing faces and admiration, Naruto couldn't help but smile that made Sasuke shiver.

"I'm sick." Sasuke rolled his eyes: "If everything's okay, I'll go back."

He originally thought Naruto had something else to say.

But unexpectedly, Naruto nodded, turned around carelessly, hugged the back of his head and left: "I'll see you when school starts."

Are you sick?

Sasuke didn't expect that he really left like this. He was so angry that he was itching his teeth. I thought you were planning to play with me... Bah, it was a competition, but the result was such a nonsense, wasting time?

The tail of the crane is the tail of the crane! Bad luck!

I must give him a good beating when school starts!

Sasuke turned back to the house with a cold face.

However, as he walked among the family, he couldn't help but frown gradually.

There are so few people.

In the morning, there were still a lot of people at home...and they should all be on vacation.

Is there some urgent mission that needs to be dispatched suddenly?

Sasuke hesitated, as if he suddenly thought of something, and subconsciously took steps to check somewhere. However, he was silent for a moment, but did nothing. Instead, he looked into the distance with complicated eyes. After retracting his gaze, he went alone.

One person goes to the training ground.

And within the Uchiha clan at this moment.

In the dark underground conference room, more than a dozen Uchiha clansmen were seated in an orderly manner. Their faces all had expressions of eagerness and enthusiasm that could not be concealed.

Uchiha Fugaku sat at the front seat with a calm expression. Next to him, there was an old man who looked very old. His beard and hair were all white, and he was wearing a simple to old kimono. Only Uchiha

The family emblem looks very clean.

"Chief Fugaku, it's time."

The elder only used a low voice to raise the already high atmosphere in the conference room, as if adding fuel to the fire.

Uchiha Fugaku looked around in silence with his eyes. Finally, when he saw Itachi sitting in the corner with an expressionless face, he paused for a moment and turned his head.

"Everyone...have made up your mind?"

He asked his final question.

Elder Uchiha just smiled coldly: "Chief Fugaku, why should you be so indecisive at this time?"

yes...

Uchiha Fugaku gently closed his eyes.

When did you have this ambition?

Did it start when the Uchiha clan was driven to this remote corner by Konoha?

Or does it start when you receive Danzo’s confession?

Or...before all this happened?

He could no longer tell when exactly he became like this.

Whenever this kind of moment comes, he can't help but feel some hesitation deep in his heart. Where does this hesitation come from?

Uchiha Fugaku is difficult to distinguish.

However, when he opened his eyes and looked at the expectant Uchiha people in the conference room, a kind of power emerged from his heart, dispelling his uneasiness and confusion, leaving only strong ambition.

Become Hokage...

But this is something that even that Uchiha Madara has never done!

If it works...

He opened his mouth and surprisingly found that his voice was a little hoarse: "Do you all understand the message from Danzo?"

"Of course, Chief Fugaku."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Uchiha Fugaku looked at the words spoken by his men and nodded slowly: "Then, let's implement it as planned."

Seeing Uchiha Fugaku finally make a decision, the Uchiha elites in the conference room smiled one after another. The elder sitting next to him, Uchiha Yan, just nodded slightly: "There is no turning back when you shoot. In this matter, we

We must be concealed enough, and when the signal from Danzo appears... that's the time for us to take action.

If Danzo fails to do things well, we will stop the operation and look for good opportunities again, so don’t let the news get out, and don’t let your selfishness get the better of you and miss important things!”

"yes!"

The elites of the Uchiha clan accepted the order one after another and began to act according to the original plan.

Uchiha Itachi, who was sitting in the corner, just stood up slowly, his expression still unchanged, as if he was incompatible with the atmosphere of this meeting.

"Itachi, your security department is a top priority. Konoha has sent a lot of people in recently. You must ensure that they don't miss the mark."

Uchiha Fugaku ordered sternly.

Uchiha Itachi just raised his eyes and looked at him calmly: "I know, father."

"...never mind."

Uchiha Fugaku seemed to want to say something more, but in the end he just turned his head away from him and said in a low voice: "Itachi, you must remember your identity."

"I know, father." Uchiha Itachi nodded slightly and said without any fluctuation in his tone: "I know who I am."

"That's good."

Uchiha Fugaku said indifferently: "Don't let emotions influence your decision-making... I believe in you, Itachi."

"Yes." Uchiha Itachi lowered his eyes, turned and left.

Elder Uchiha looked at the conversation between the two with an expressionless expression. When Itachi left, he suddenly said: "Do you really trust him?"

"He is my son." Uchiha Fugaku frowned slightly, looked at the Uchiha elder beside him, and his voice became serious: "If I can't even trust him...who can I trust?"

"I always feel...Itachi...forget it, it's nothing." Uchiha En didn't say much, just stood up with crutches, hunched his back, and walked out slowly.

"Chief Fugaku, even I am extremely looking forward to the day when our Uchiha clan can reach the top of Konoha, but don't underestimate Hyuga Yuzuru, and don't underestimate the old guy who is now living in seclusion in the Sarutobi clan.

Although I don’t know why you are so sure, since the choice is in line with everyone’s wishes, don’t let everyone down.

I don't know if I can clear the way for you with my old bones...

This time, I need to think clearly about what I really want..."

Uchiha Fugaku stood up and watched the elder leave without saying a word until he walked away, then stretched out his hand and gently touched his eyes.

grasp...

He raised his head with an intriguing expression on his face and murmured in a low voice: "Hyuga Yuzuru...?"

After a long time, Uchiha Fugaku also left the underground conference room.

In the shadows, a puff of green smoke flew up and transformed into a human form in the closed basement.

The calm-looking Iblisuki thought for a moment, then turned into a wisp of smoke again, disappeared through the ventilation facility, transformed into a human form outside the Uchiha clan, leaped straight to the Hokage's office.

At the same time, outside the basement, a crow was strangely quiet on a branch. After a long time, traces of the Sharingan appeared in it, the channeling was cancelled, and it turned into smoke.

At this moment, Uchiha Shisui, who had been driven to live in a remote corner of the Uchiha clan, slowly opened his eyes in the room.

He was silent and sat in his room.

On the coffee table, there was only one tachi lying flat on it.

In the end, nothing was accomplished?

Uchiha Shisui didn't say a word. After a long time, he just breathed a long sigh of relief. He gently picked up the sword and wiped it carefully for a long time before returning it to the scabbard and throwing it on the table without wearing it.

He stood up, took steps, and headed straight to Uchiha Fugaku's residence.

On the way, he happened to bump into Itachi Uchiha, who was just returning home from a meeting.

The two met on the road, but they only nodded indifferently to each other, without even saying a simple hello.

Uchiha Itachi walked back to his home, while Uchiha Shisui, out of etiquette, waited at the door for a while. After a while, Uchiha Fugaku also returned to the door of his house and saw Shisui. He was not surprised at all, but the look in his eyes

Cold.

"Shisui, what's the matter?"

Uchiha Shisui looked at him quietly: "Clan Chief Fugaku, during this time, I want to take a good rest at home."
