Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 3: It’s hard to please everyone, stick to your heart

Shisui tilted his head, he knew every word of this sentence, but why couldn't he understand when they were put together?

Sima Yi paused while stroking his beard, and could only explain: "Whether it is judging people or judging things, we must look at them from different angles and understand them."

“People are complex and have more than one side. If you can only understand a person from one perspective, it means you have fallen into the cage he has woven.”

Shisui frowned, as if he had been shocked by something, and lowered his head for a moment, "No, the Sandaime..."

“Don’t directly deny an idea that contradicts yours. Listen to both sides and you will be enlightened. Listen to only one side and you will be confused. Listen more, observe more, and make fewer decisions.”

The young man's brain seemed unable to hold too many truths. Seeing that Shisui fell silent again, Sima Yi chuckled and comforted him, "Don't worry. Thinking without learning will lead to danger. You are still young. Tell me about the current situation of various forces and what has happened recently."

Shisui gave up and nodded, giving up thinking, and introduced the situations of each country one by one.

"The Ninja World War is here, and children under ten are fighting on the battlefield!"

Even Sima Yi was a little shocked. Being dragged onto the battlefield as a ten-year-old child had never happened before even in his time.

This is simply a sign of genocide and extinction, yet it is surprisingly common in this world.

After talking about the wars in various countries, Shisui also talked about the situation in Konoha and the conflicts among the Uchiha.

If a village is regarded as a country, the Hokage should be the head of the country, and each clan is a powerful noble clan. The Uchiha clan is also powerful among them. It seems that it is too conspicuous and is suppressed.

Sima Yi analyzed the intelligence while listening to Shishui's story.

goo~
The two chatted until midnight, until Sima Yi's stomach started to respond and Shisui's face turned red, and then he remembered that he hadn't even asked the other party to sit down.

"I'm sorry, teacher. It's my negligence. Please rest here for a while. I will prepare food for you."

The summoned military advisor will become a physical entity, and will starve and die.

Before Sima Yi could respond, Shisui disappeared in an instant.

"This is Ninjutsu, it's really amazing!"

Although he already knew that ninjutsu existed in this world, seeing a person disappear in front of him still made Sima Yi's eyes light up and he exclaimed in amazement.

But it was just an exclamation, he soon calmed down and thought about the Uchiha's form in Konoha.

Zhishui moved quickly and in a few moments he returned to the tent with some steaming grilled fish.

"Teacher, eat it while it's hot. If it's not enough, I'll grill some more." Shisui handed over the grilled fish with a smile.

If he was alone, some dry food would be enough, but today was the teacher's first day here, and he didn't want the other party to not even have a hot meal.

"Haha, I'm interested."

Sima Yi took the grilled fish with a smile. He led troops outside all year round and did not pursue these appetites, but Shisui's attitude made him further understand the child in front of him.

"Oh? This smells quite delicious!"

The unique seasoning and the perfect cooking temperature instantly activated his taste buds. It was an experience he had never had before.

"Really? If you like it, I will cook it for you often in the future~"

Shisui blushed, the last person who liked his grilled fish was Itachi.

Sima Yi ate the fish with a smile and did not refuse.

"Oh, teacher, there is one more thing I didn't have time to tell you. Yesterday, the Mist Ninja bypassed my defense zone and attacked the rear camp."

Shisui frowned and told him about yesterday's sneak attack by the Mist Ninja and the questioning he received afterwards. These things had been on his mind for the whole day and made him quite irritated.

"Ok?"

Sima Yi's expression changed. He put down the grilled fish and stared at Zhishui. "Are you saying that the rear camp guards never showed up from beginning to end?"

“Yes, in theory the Uchiha clan is responsible for the frontline and command post defense.

Even if some enemies managed to break through, they would be stopped by the rear camp guards led by Mitomon Masago.

There will never be a situation where more than a dozen teams of ninjas break through two lines of defense at the same time and threaten the rear camp."

Shisui looked puzzled, being approached from behind the camp was not just the Uchiha's fault, there was no reason for the Mitomon to maliciously let the enemy in. "Do you still have those two prisoners you captured?"

"It's still with Brother Hui, but it will be transferred to the headquarters at dawn."

"With your ability, is it possible to get information from them?"

I can do this!

Shisui raised his head, his expression confident, "It's easy!"

"Then can you get information about the rear camp guards' actions today without disturbing others?"

"no problem!"

Not to mention finding a member of the rear camp guard, he could even easily control Mitomon Shogo.

"Oh?"

Sima Yi was a little surprised. He seemed to have underestimated the strength of the young man in front of him.

"In that case, you should set off now and make sure to get the news before dawn."

"is teacher!"

Zhishui disappeared, Sima Yi sat on the bed eating grilled fish, thinking about several possibilities in his mind.

I don't know how long it took, but when the breeze blew, Shisui walked into the tent with a depressed expression.

Seeing him like this, Sima Yi looked down at the still steaming grilled fish in his hand and said softly, "The fish you cooked is spicy, and people with light tastes may not like it. How do you think we should deal with it?"

Shisui was stunned. What does this have to do with fish?
But he still thought carefully, "You can use less seasoning, so the taste will be lighter."

"Do you like it light?"

"No, teacher, I still like spicy flavor."

"It's hard to please everyone even for a single fish, let alone for greater interests. Every person and every force has their own ideas. You have to get used to seeing through their intentions, get used to their greed, and stick to your own interests. This is the basis for your existence."

"Teacher, you know everything!"

Shisui was shocked, he clearly hadn't said anything yet.

"Haha, some of these unspeakable means are nothing more than colluding with the enemy to leak intelligence, lure the enemy into the country, and then set an ambush to gain merit.

But now it seems that man proposes, God disposes, and their plan must have gone awry."

Sima Yi spoke casually with a calm expression.

Shisui was in a difficult mood, as even though he had obtained the intelligence, he was still guessing about these things, while the person in front of him could guess the truth from just a few words.

"Teacher, please teach me again!"

Zhishui knelt down and sat upright.

"Hahaha, get up, isn't this exactly why I came here?"

"Thank you teacher!"

Shisui stood up and walked to Sima Yi's side, his expression becoming more respectful.

"Can you tell me what happened? Why didn't the rear camp guards intercept them?"

"Teacher, according to what the two Mist Ninjas said, after they bypassed the Uchiha's defenses, they were afraid of my strength and did not continue to go deeper as planned. Instead, they chose to take a longer route.

In order to eliminate the Mist Ninja Army in time, Mitomon Masago had gathered all the guards from other areas together. By coincidence, the two sides staggered their positions, allowing the Mist Ninja Army to attack the rear camp."

Shisui was still a little shy when he said this, after all, it always sounded a bit boastful when these words came out of his mouth.

"Hahaha, you really did make things worse. Now it seems that you have one strength and one weakness."

"Teacher, may I ask, what is the difference between superior and inferior?"
