Evil Uchiha Itsuki

Uchiha Setsuna was a dangerous element, almost universally acknowledged by Konoha's upper echelons.

Back then, he rebelled more than once, only to be repeatedly suppressed and taught a lesson.

Tobirama Senju's purpose in keeping him alive was clear... I don't even consider you a threat.

Moreover, by keeping you alive, I have an excuse to deal with the Uchiha in the future.

After Tobirama's death, Hiruzen Sarutobi inherited his will to target the Uchiha.

Unfortunately!

Dealing with the Uchiha was far beyond his capabilities.

The current Hiruzen Sarutobi was old and only wanted stability. He had repeatedly tried to eliminate the dangerous Setsuna to prevent problems within the Uchiha.

However, Setsuna sensed the danger and had reduced his outings in recent years, not giving the Third Hokage any opportunities.

This wasn't surprising. If he wasn't smart, he would have been dealt with long ago.

He was like a well-hidden venomous snake, ready to strike and inject its venom at any moment.

The Third Hokage couldn't just barge into his house.

He didn't dare to!

How could Itsuki be involved with him?

Fugaku's face darkened.

He valued Uchiha Itsuki and didn't want him to become Setsuna's pawn.

"This..." The middle-aged Uchiha hesitated slightly, "Maybe it's just a coincidence."

"Coincidence?"

Fugaku sneered, "First, he wanted to give Itsuki the Sharingan, then he asked for compensation from the Hokage in Itsuki's name, and now he appears at Itsuki's residence. Are all these coincidences?"

"Are you trying to tell me that Setsuna really asked for compensation for Itsuki?"

The middle-aged Uchiha was speechless.

Once or twice could be called a coincidence, but three times was definitely not.

Asking for compensation for Itsuki?

That was something Fugaku would do.

Moreover, Setsuna asking for compensation for Itsuki, didn't that prove there was a connection between them?

At the very least, Setsuna had his eyes on Itsuki, that was for sure.

Fugaku's frown deepened.

Fugaku was also useless. Even though Danzo had openly attacked Itsuki, he still wanted to endure it!

You're a dove, not a turtle!

"I don't understand."

The middle-aged Uchiha hesitated, "Clan Leader, Itsuki and Elder Setsuna have never had any contact before, I'm very sure of that. What's going on between them..."

Fugaku was also puzzled.

Because of Setsuna's dangerous nature, he had assigned many people to keep an eye on him.

How did they get together?

Was there something going on in the clan that he didn't know about?

Fugaku's eyes became even fiercer and more dangerous.

The middle-aged Uchiha couldn't handle it and quickly averted his gaze.

A saying circulating within the Uchiha came to his mind: Fugaku's eyes are fierce and sinister. Just standing there, they automatically attack with ninjutsu.

That was true, at least he couldn't withstand it.

"What are you thinking?"

At this moment, Fugaku's voice sounded faintly.

"Nothing!" The middle-aged Uchiha quickly said, "I was wondering what Elder Setsuna is doing meeting with Itsuki."

Fugaku stared at him coldly.

Just now, he felt that the other party was thinking something disrespectful.

And it was related to him!

Because he suddenly felt like punching the other party.

Unfortunately, there was no evidence.

"I'll go see for myself!"

Fugaku stood up and said coldly, "Have you arranged what I asked?"

"The clan's patrol team has increased its manpower, and the Jonin have also reduced their mission frequency." The middle-aged Uchiha hesitated, "But, the clan's barrier, do we really need to change it? You know..."

Fugaku also hesitated.

As the oldest and most powerful clan in Konoha, the Uchiha had their own clan barrier.

It was the first shield to protect the Uchiha.

However, changing the barrier would require resources and money that even the Uchiha could hardly bear.

After all, it was a massive barrier covering the entire clan's territory.

"Forget about the barrier!"

Fugaku exhaled and said, "To enter the Uchiha clan's territory silently requires the leadership of the clan's core members. I believe these people won't do anything to harm the clan."

"Yes!"

...

Setsuna wanted to see Itsuki, but Itachi and Shisui appeared and stopped him.

Although they were two minors, and one was even blind, the pressure they exerted on Setsuna was not small.

Setsuna frowned slightly and said, "Where's Itsuki?"

Itachi said calmly, "Brother Itsuki has important matters to attend to, Elder, please go back."

Important matters?

Setsuna muttered to himself, repeating the phrase, and suddenly asked, "He wouldn't be transplanting his eyes, would he?"

Itachi and Shisui's expressions remained unchanged, and they didn't answer.

Setsuna frowned and said, "Shisui, if Itsuki is really transplanting his eyes, go and stop him now. I have a pair of very powerful Sharingan."

"Elder, Itsuki is my younger brother!"

Shisui's answer was only this one sentence.

The meaning was very clear: Itsuki is my brother, who are you?

Oh, you're Uchiha Setsuna, I know you, the old man who was dealt with by two Hokages and keeps clamoring about restoring the Uchiha's glory, you old fool.

Setsuna's face darkened.

He suddenly remembered what Itsuki had said to him.

Back then, he also tried to win over Itsuki, this genius, and subtly hinted at targeting Shisui, trying to sow discord between the two brothers. As a result, Itsuki said to him: Shisui is my brother, who are you?

Oh, you're Uchiha Setsuna, I know you...

At this moment, Setsuna suddenly wanted to turn around and leave.

These two brothers, none of them were good!

One scolded him to his face, and the other mocked him subtly.

"Old man Setsuna, what are you doing here?"

An aged voice sounded.

Uchiha Fugaku!

He strode over, staring at Setsuna with unkind eyes.

Setsuna's expression returned to normal, and he said coldly, "I came to see Itsuki, to see if there's anything I can help him with."

"No need!"

Fugaku said without hesitation, "I will naturally take care of Kagami's descendants."

Setsuna glanced at him and sneered, "I came to give him money, the compensation from Danzo, and also to tell him that Elder Fugaku wants him to let things slide. Tsk tsk, you're taking good care of him, Fugaku. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Fugaku's face darkened, and he said angrily, "Because of the Mangekyo Sharingan incident, the atmosphere in Konoha is already very tense. At this time, it's not appropriate to make a big fuss."

He turned his gaze to Shisui and Itachi, "What do you think?"

Shisui nodded subconsciously.

He also understood the current situation in Konoha and naturally didn't want a civil war to break out.

Itachi also wanted to nod, but suddenly remembered his conversation with Itsuki.

The words on the tip of his tongue changed.

"I think so too, but..."

He carefully looked at Fugaku and said, "I don't think Brother Itsuki would agree."

Fugaku's face darkened.

Setsuna also looked at Itachi in astonishment.

This kid, what had gotten into him?

Was this something Uchiha Itachi would say?

Could it be that Itsuki had used a transformation technique?

The few of them looked Itachi up and down.

Itachi's words stunned everyone present.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Until the arrival of Fugaku Uchiha.

"Both elders are here."

Fugaku's expression was serious. As he approached, he noticed the surprised expressions on their faces and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"Fugaku!" Setsuna pointed at Itachi and asked, "Are you sure this is your son?"

Fugaku's face darkened.

If he's not my son, is he yours?

Bah!

My Mikoto, I misspoke, it's all this old geezer's fault.
