Uchiha Fugaku was sitting in the center of the temple. Opposite him were hundreds of members of the Uchiha clan. It was already dark, and the surrounding torches were lit, illuminating the place brightly.
Hundreds of people gathered together, so it should be very lively. But here, it was strangely quiet, with only the "crackling" sound of the flames roasting the wood. Uchiha Fugaku counted the time and was about to start.
Well, this boss has made some progress. After all, what they are going to do now is quite exciting.
"Itachi didn't come, Shisui didn't show up either..." Uchiha Mikoto had been paying attention to the scene, but she never saw those two figures in the crowd.
Izumi mingled in the crowd, and her personality was incompatible with the atmosphere of the scene. Therefore, even if she stood in the corner, she was so conspicuous. Mikoto walked over and greeted her gently: "You are Izumi, right? I didn't expect you to be there.
See you here."
"Hello, madam! I am Uchiha Izumi." Izumi quickly bowed ninety degrees and asked with some confusion: "Isn't today a clan gathering?"
Mikoto was stunned, and a warm smile appeared on her calm face. She stretched out her hand to tidy up Izumi's messy hair, and said in a calm tone: "What a good boy. I will ask you to take good care of Itachi from now on. That child will
It’s very hard to keep everything buried deep in my heart!”
"Hmm..." Izumi blinked in confusion, but she still agreed.
"Today's party has nothing to do with you. Go back and rest early!" Mikoto took Izumi and sent her to the outside. She looked at the girl and asked unintentionally: "Itachi seems to have a good relationship with Kurama Mirror.
A trustworthy friend?"
"Ming Jing!" Izumi thought for a while, nodded and said, "I heard Itachi said that Ming Jing is someone he trusts."
"Yeah, if Itachi trusts you, you can trust him too. Okay, go back quickly!" Mikoto nodded, then pushed Izumi.
"Oh...then, should I go back first?" Izumi asked tentatively.
"Go back quickly!" Mikoto waved her hand, her tone a little more urging.
"Goodbye, madam..." Izumi nodded and slowly left the place. Mikoto kept standing there and staring until Izumi could no longer be seen, then she turned and returned to the party. As soon as she walked in, she saw Uchi
Fugaku stood up. The current clan members were immediately attracted by the clan leader's move. Hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at Fugaku at the same time.
"Years ago, our seniors Uchiha Madara and the first Hokage Senju Hashirama jointly established the Leaf Village for the sake of world peace. And with the efforts of these two seniors, they ended the First Ninja War..." Fugaku
Standing on it, he spoke calmly about the contributions the Uchiha clan had made to the world and the village.
Just when he was talking enthusiastically, Itachi suddenly appeared in front of Fugaku. He lowered his head, controlled his emotions, and said calmly: "Father, I have something important to report."
"What's the matter?" Fugaku was a little dissatisfied with Itachi's sudden appearance and interrupting his speech, but thinking of his son's usual indifference, he calmed down and asked.
"Uchiha Shisui committed suicide. This is the suicide note found in his room." Itachi took out a letter from his arms and held it up.
"What?! Brother Zhisui committed suicide? Why?"
"I also want to know why! Brother Zhisui is obviously so strong."
"Tell me, could it be Weasel killed..."
"No way? Itachi is stronger than Brother Shisui?"
"Can't we make a sneak attack?! It's not like you don't know that Shisui has almost no defense against his fellow clan members."
"..."
Listening to the discussion below, Fugaku looked particularly solemn. He took the suicide note from Itachi and read it quickly. The tribesmen below looked at Fugaku anxiously. Everyone was wondering why Shisui committed suicide.
As for the coup?
Sorry, under the current circumstances, there are really not many people who want to launch a coup. After all, their vanguards have understood themselves before they went out to fight. No matter how much they think about it, they feel confused...
"Let's get here today! Remember, we are the proud Uchiha clan! Now, everyone goes back to their homes and has a good rest!" Fugaku noticed the change in the clan's mentality. He sighed in his heart, but on the surface he was still confident. No matter what,
, as the clan leader, he must not be messy! If he just missed today, he doesn’t know if there will be such an opportunity in the future. More importantly, a genius like Shisui actually chose to commit suicide. Fugaku couldn’t help but feel depressed: "He
Are you so dismissive of us?..."
…
In the early morning, Ming Jing got up very early. When Yue Xi found him, Ming Jing's head was already covered with dew. At Yue Xi's reminder, Ming Jing went back to the room and changed his clothes. When he came out again, the girl was already
Breakfast is ready for him.
Watching Ming Jing sit down, Yuexi asked with some worry: "Master, did you not have any rest last night? Do you want to make adjustments for the third exam today?"
"It's okay, I just got up early." Ming Jing smiled and rejected Yue Xi's proposal. At this moment, Kurama Mirai hurried in. She looked at Ming Jing and said solemnly: "Young Master, Uchiha
Shisui is dead."
"Huh?!" Ming Jing paused. Although he was mentally prepared, when he heard the news, his heart was inevitably touched.
"Master?" Yuexi held Ming Jing's hand, and now she was even more worried.
"Is the news reliable?" Ming Jing let Yuexi hold his hand. He took a breath and looked at the future and asked.
"It's news from the Hokage Building. It's very credible."
"That's it!" Ming Jing looked up at the ceiling. When he suddenly heard the news, he actually had a hint of joy, but it was quickly covered up by guilt. Because Shisui and Itachi were so terrible,
If there is only one, Ming Jing is completely confident that he can win. If there are two... even Madara Six Paths will have a headache!
After hurriedly wiping his lips, Ming Jing stood up and walked outside. Yuexi and Laiwei glanced at each other and followed. Together with Qing Yan who was guarding outside, Ming Jing and the other four rushed to the Hokage Building.
At the same time, the Hokage Building was filled with solemnity. The Third Hokage, Danzo and two advisors were sitting in the large conference room. In front of them was Itachi who was half-kneeling.
"Uchiha Shisui is the backbone of the young people in the Uchiha clan. His suicide caused the morale and combat effectiveness of the Uchiha clan to drop instantly." Itachi lifted up the Anbu mask and looked at the Third Hokage and said slowly.
"As far as the result is concerned, the prelude to the rebellion has been killed!" Xiaochun said after going to bed. The old man's tone sounded like he was relieved.
"Can Shisui have no choice but to commit suicide to stop them? Did I push the child too hard?" The Third Hokage looked sad. He was very optimistic about Shisui. He even thought that Shisui was the will of the mirror.
Inheritor, I never expected that such an outstanding young man would commit suicide.
"It seems that some people in the Uchiha clan suspect that you killed Shisui." Danzo said calmly.
Itachi replied calmly: "Like Shisui, everything I do is for Uchiha. Only people who don't understand this will say such things." Itachi looked at Danzo and reflected on his emotions.
Completely hidden: "Shisui did not appear at the gathering point."
"Because he is hiding a secret, is he being suspected? Let the ANBU officially convey the news of his suicide!" At this point, Danzo looked at the Third Hokage and asked, "Is it okay? Hiruzen."
"Hmm..." The Third Hokage nodded heavily, agreeing with Danzo's opinion.
