Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 157: Giving Birth to a Child Should Be Like Still Water
The same thing will have different results if it happens at different times.

Neither Utane Koharu nor Mito Kado En had any intention of spreading the news that Uchiha Shisui possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan.

If it had happened a few months earlier, not only would the two not have concealed it, they would have made it known to the whole village, and would have repeatedly mentioned the matter of the Nine-Tails to attract the hatred of the villagers and suppress the Uchiha.

However, at this moment, the Uchiha has become powerful and the people of Konoha are divided. Once the news of the Mangekyo is revealed, more people will turn to the Uchiha.

However, things in Konoha no longer go according to their will.

They were unwilling to reveal it, but Yan Shifan spread it.

In just a few hours, all the ninja clans received the information that Uchiha had appeared in the Mangekyō again.

"Kaleidoscope? What is that?"

Some families have shallow roots and no habit of recording their past, and have long forgotten how powerful the Uchiha was.

Families like the Ino-Shika-Chou, Hyuga, Sarutobi and others immediately fell into fear after hearing about the Mangekyō.

"Mangekyo, could it be the eyes possessed by Uchiha Madara who is as famous as the Shodaime? Uchiha Shisui actually awakened this bloodstain!"

Suzaku was stunned, he almost jumped up from his bed pretending to be sick, he didn't expect that the usually honest Shisui had secretly hidden such a big surprise.

"I've heard from the elders of the clan that Uchiha Madara was extremely powerful back then. No one except the Shodaime was qualified to fight him. Even the Kages of other villages were powerless in front of him. He could even suppress the tailed beasts with ease. His power alone was enough to destroy the entire Konoha."

"When Uchiha Madara left Konoha, no one knew what happened. After he came back, he wanted to destroy Konoha. If the First Generation hadn't stopped him, Konoha would have been razed to the ground long ago.

The topography of the Valley of the End was changed because of the battle between the two."

"Now that Uchiha Shisui has awakened these eyes, how can the two advisors contend with him? There should be no surprises in the position of the Fifth Hokage."

"Then us"

The people of the Yamanaka and Akimichi clans were thinking of retreating. Now that the Third Hokage was unable to manage Konoha, the two assistants had lost their prestige and reputation, and were unable to lead the other clans. It was obvious that their strength was not enough to fight against the Uchiha clans.

It didn't seem necessary for them to offend Uchiha to death for the sake of the two assistants.

"I am also the leader of the jonin squad, so I cannot avoid the jonin meeting. However, I cannot accept the position of candidate for Hokage. You and I will spread some news and bring up the loss of the national defense line of Yuno no Niku."

Nara Suzaku didn't want to be Hokage in the first place, but now that the situation was clear, he made a prompt decision.

The people from the Yamanaka and Akimichi tribes looked at each other and understood what Nara Suzaku meant.

"We'll go right away."

Not only the Ino, Deer, and Chou clans, but also the families with some background and knowledge of the Mangekyo felt tremendous pressure. Some originally neutral families began to send signals to the Uchiha clans.

Top families like the Hyuga clan chose to remain silent. Although they disliked Utane Koharu, the Uchiha clan was equally disliked, so they simply remained neutral.

At the same time, in the Sarutobi clan.

The third generation has been awake for several days and is now lying quietly on the bed with a weak breath. Asuma Sarutobi is standing quietly beside him. Since the incident, Asuma Sarutobi has become much calmer.

"The two advisors are no longer able to suppress the Uchiha. I heard that Uchiha Shisui also awakened the Mangekyō, but he did not reveal his eye technique. We only know that he used illusion to instantly control the two advisors. Could it be that he was the one who released the Nine-Tails back then?"

The new chief of the Sarutobi clan stood at the head of the bed and slowly told the Third Generation about what was happening in the village.

The Sandaime looked better than before, and he said softly, "Shisui has no reason to do this, and he wouldn't do this. These eyes must have awakened recently. It seems that he doesn't trust me enough."

The third generation sighed, looking puzzled.

Asuma Sarutobi thought of the calm junior who was younger than him, but much stronger than him.

"The tribe's land has been blocked by the police department. Two consultants were blocked outside the tribe's land today. Is there anything we should do?"

"Where's Danzo?"

The reason why things have developed to this point is ultimately due to the infighting among the three. If the three had worked together, the police department would not even have the opportunity to expand for the first time.

"No news. He seems to have been staying at the root base. I wonder what he is doing?"

"Haha~"

The Sandaime chuckled, "How could he not make any movement at such a critical moment? From what I know about him, Danzo should no longer be in the village now."

"Not in Konoha?"

Chief Sarutobi was stunned, thought for a moment and speculated: "Did he go to find Princess Tsunade or Jiraiya?"

The only ways to prevent Uchiha Shisui from becoming Hokage right now are for the Third Hokage to recover or for Tsunade to return to the village.

The third generation closed his eyes, shook his head slightly, and said nothing more.

"Don't conflict with the Uchiha during this period. As for Koharu and En, ignore them for now. If you really can't stop them, then let Shisui become Hokage."

After that, the Sandaime's voice became lower and lower, and he slowly added: "Remember, the overall interests of Konoha are the most important, and you must not cause civil unrest."

Suppressing the Uchiha is important, but the village is more important. In front of the village, everything can be compromised.

"Yes."

Different ethnic groups and different places have different thoughts.

That night, after Shisui finished his training, he sat quietly in the corridor, feeling the cold wind and looking into the distance to the north.

Not only people outside the tribe were shocked about his kaleidoscope, but people inside the tribe were also shocked. Many members of the tribe excitedly blocked outside his yard, hoping to meet Shisui after he got off work.

Shisui was not opposed to contacting his tribe members, and naturally acknowledged the facts about the Mangekyo.

However, he concealed the matter of the eye technique and Fugaku.

Since Shisui is still young, everyone thinks that he has just awakened recently, but Fugaku is a little old, and if his Mangekyō is exposed, people will easily associate him with the Nine-Tails.

Even if the impact is not big, it will bring some stigma to the family. Before he becomes Hokage, this kind of thing should be avoided as much as possible.

With this thought in mind, Shisui looked back and saw Yan Shifan coming out of the study and said in a deep voice: "Today, many people have been investigating you openly or secretly. It's time to invite them to the clan to get a good understanding of the Uchiha's strength."

Shisui nodded. This was what he had proposed before, and now everything was almost ready.

"I'll leave the clan's affairs to the teacher."

Yan Shifan nodded, then smiled and said, "The barrier of the clan's land has been repaired, and the barrier left by Sima Gong has also been built. The spying of the Anbu can be completely avoided."

"The purchased weapons and armor have also been distributed, and we are just waiting for the Jonin meeting to be concluded."

Shisui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, but then became nervous again.

"Grandpa once said that the closer we get to a big event, the more calm we need to be. I'm still not calm enough."

"Hahaha, there's no need to belittle yourself. There is only one person in my memory who can achieve this at your age."

As Yan Shifan spoke, he seemed to recall some unpleasant memories and his laughter gradually stopped.

Zhishui asked curiously, "What kind of person can be so highly praised by the teacher?" Yan Shifan opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time. Perhaps he didn't know how to judge, so he just said, "It's hard to predict."

Zhishui was stunned, but seeing Yan Shifan's troubled brow, he stopped asking.

"Tomorrow will be busy, I will go back to my room to rest first. Teacher, please take care of your health and don't stay up too late."

Shisui stood up, said hello and left.

Yan Shifan stayed in the corridor for a long time thinking before returning to the study to continue dealing with the matters at hand.

The next day, Shisui's influence expanded further, and almost all the invitations sent by Yan Shifan were responded to.

Among them were the Hyuga, Sarutobi, and Ino-Shika-cho families. They all knew the Uchiha's intentions. Although they did not want to make their positions clear, they still sent people to the Uchiha territory.

The banquet was arranged by Yan Shifan with a rigorous process. The welcoming of guests, attendance, rituals, music, and banquet all had their own meaning.

It was the first time for each family to attend such a strange gathering, but each of the Uchiha ninjas surrounding them was so imposing and powerful that most people were intimidated and dared not speak.

Only families like the Hyuga family, which has a long heritage and strict internal hierarchy, can adapt to this.

However, time was limited, and Yan Shifan was not actually satisfied with the banquet. Zhishui, on the other hand, thought it was good, and at Yan Shifan's suggestion, he toasted everyone with tea instead of wine.

"I believe you all know me. I am Uchiha Shisui. I invited you all here today because I heard that you all seem to have some misunderstandings about my Uchiha clan. I would like to use this banquet to get to know each other and resolve these misunderstandings.

Secondly, the ninja world is in turmoil right now, and dangers are lurking outside of Konoha. Since we were born in Konoha and are trusted by the villagers of Konoha, we should do our best to defend our homeland and keep the enemy out of our country. Therefore, we invite you to learn from each other and make progress together!"

Shisui spoke eloquently and behaved calmly and steadily, not showing any immaturity at all.

Everyone looked at Uchiha Shisui, whose majesty was growing, and then looked at the younger generations of the family beside him, and couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

After Shisui's toast, the banquet continued.

Halfway through, Shisui stopped the music and invited ninjas from all tribes to compete with the Uchiha ninjas.

There are fifteen people in total, including Chunin, Genin, and even some students without forehead protectors, who can be selected by the children of each family.

As for the jonin, the strength and status of each jonin are far beyond the reach of the chuunin, so naturally there is no need for them to participate in such a fight.

Then, Shisui took out some extremely precious items even for ninjas as rewards.

Many families were excited and couldn't help but send out their family ninjas to fight against the Uchiha people in turns.

However, the Uchiha clan is the most powerful family in Konoha. After Shisui's various reforms, these ninjas have undergone secondary training, and have won more than they lost in dozens of battles.

However, Konoha is so big that there are always some people with extraordinary talents who are rewarded for their success.

Among them are the ninjas of the Aburame and Hyuga clans.

However, everyone's attention did not linger too much on the ninjas of the two clans, but was focused on the new genius of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi.

At this time, Itachi was still a student at the Ninja Academy, but was placed in the Chunin group by Shisui. He defeated seven Chunins from various clans by himself and stole the limelight.

"This is Uchiha Itachi? Uchiha Fugaku's son?"

"Fugaku's son? Isn't that the former head of the Uchiha clan?"

"The former clan leader's son was placed in the Chunin Group. Is he deliberately targeting us and wanting to kill him through us?"

"It shouldn't be that serious. With Uchiha Shisui's strength, there's no need to use this method to deal with him. Besides, I heard that Fugaku is living peacefully in the clan. If they can even keep Fugaku, how can they not accommodate a child?"

"Anyway, this child's talent is somewhat amazing, but at the age of seven, he can defeat seven Chunins in one go. Is this the foundation of the Uchiha?"

"The Uchiha has a successor!"

Listening to everyone's discussion, Shisui watched Itachi's lips curl up.

Due to Itachi's special nature, Itachi's education has always been a top priority for Shisui.

In order to complete the training of physical skills, ninjutsu, illusion skills, medical ninjutsu, sealing skills and various general theories, Shisui specially selected senior ninjas or special senior ninjas who were proficient in these aspects from the clan to provide five-on-one tutoring.

Their doctors also checked his body in real time to ensure his safety at all times, and provided him with sufficient amounts of the clan's secret medicines for nourishing the body. Combined with Itachi's amazing talent and Shisui and Fugaku's practical instruction, Itachi's strength improved rapidly and was no longer the same as before.

Itachi lived up to expectations and defeated a Chunin at the age of seven, a feat only comparable to that of Kakashi Hatake.

However, with so much schoolwork, Itachi had no time to accompany Sasuke, which made Sasuke complain to Shisui.

Of course, everything is worth it. Looking at Itachi's performance and the evaluations of various tribes, Shisui feels happy from the bottom of his heart.

Some people noticed Shisui's expression and couldn't help but sigh: "With such a broad mind, it might be a good thing for us if he could become the fifth generation."

"If I had a son, I'd want him to be like Uchiha Shisui."

Amid everyone's complicated thoughts, the banquet came to an end. Shisui stood up at the right time, and a violent chakra emerged.

Everyone was shocked, and then they saw the three magatama in Uchiha Shisui's eyes slowly turning into windmills.

“This is a kaleidoscope!”

Feeling the terrifying power contained in its pupils, everyone was speechless for a long time.

"From now on, please join the Uchiha in protecting Konoha together."

That night, news of what happened in the Uchiha clan's territory was sent back to other clans, causing people to ponder.

But no matter what they think, the reputation of the Uchiha clan has reached its peak after today's banquet, and the calls in the village for Uchiha Shisui to become Hokage are extremely high.

However, what followed was the transfer orders issued by the two assistants. The Kurama, Aburame, Mitarai and other families all received orders to go to the Yuno no Guo defense line.

"Haha, dying struggle."

Yan Shifan sneered when he heard the news.

The Kurama clan has only one jonin and one tokujo, one is in the police department, and the other is old and frail and stays at home.

People in the Police Department do not need to go on missions unless necessary, which of course includes this kind of transfer order, so Yan Shifan directly pulled Kurama Ansai into the Police Department and rejected the transfer order.

As for the other ninjas of the Kurama clan, it doesn't matter whether they go or not.

Seeing that their methods were easily resolved, Utane Koharu and Mitomon En sighed for a long time and did not sleep all night.

The next day, Yan Shifan suggested, "Tomorrow is the Jonin meeting. They may cause trouble again. We should strengthen the blockade and concentrate our manpower on the clan lands of Tantei and Mitomon. Only these two will be left so that they can't do anything."

Shisui agreed, but suddenly said, "I plan to visit Assistant Mitomon today. Teacher, please inform him in advance for me."

Yan Shifan was stunned and looked at Zhishui deeply, but did not stop him.

After Yan Shifan left, Zhishui looked at Chaoyang and sighed softly: "We have finally come to this point, Grandpa, can we succeed tomorrow?"
