Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 59 A God-given Opportunity
what?
That's your father!
That is your future position!
Sima Yi's pupils contracted and he looked at Itachi in disbelief.

Itachi chose Shisui without any hesitation, he looked at Shisui sincerely, “Father and those clan elders can’t help the Uchiha out of this predicament.

Their thinking is too narrow. Only people like Shisui can help the Uchiha truly integrate into Konoha.

If we need to change a clan leader, I will definitely support Brother Shisui!"

"Thank you, Itachi!"

Shisui breathed a sigh of relief. He came to Itachi and stroked his short hair. He was sincerely happy for Itachi's support.

"I promise you, I will try my best to make up for it all!"

"Hmm~"

Seeing the two of them sticking together, Sima Yi's eyes twitched, and he silently cancelled the sealing formation he had set up these days. He picked up the chopsticks again and said in a low voice: "Shisui, come to the study later!"

Shisui's body shuddered, then he remembered that Sima Yi was also here, he laughed dryly and touched Itachi's head before returning to his original position.

He lowered his head, not daring to look at Sima Yi's expression. Itachi was a little strange, but didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, the two came to the study. Sima Yi looked at Zhishui with a complicated expression, "I heard you say that you have a good relationship. I don't understand and I won't argue with you, but your behavior today was too reckless anyway!
I always teach you that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, have you forgotten it?"

After all, the other party is also the clan leader's son. What Shisui is doing is trying to seize the throne!
This kind of temptation is just short of directly asking the other party whether they are willing to support him in changing the dynasty!
"I'm sorry, Grandpa, but I believe Itachi, he will never betray me! It's precisely because I'm sure that I'm doing this, it's not a spur of the moment action!"

Shisui also remembered Sima Yi's previous teachings, but he was only willing to believe Itachi when facing him.

"you"

Sima Yi was speechless, sighed and said nothing more. After all, judging from the results, Shisui was right, and Itachi really didn't seem to care about these things.

"You have your own judgment, and I am not in a position to say much. But you should be more cautious about this kind of thing and never make it a common practice."

"Don't worry grandpa, Itachi is the only one who is special. If it was anyone else, I would never do this."

Shisui nodded in obedience, he didn't think he was the type to trust others easily.

Sima Yi looked at Zhishui deeply, but he had other plans in mind.

"Well, since you have already found out the result, go and communicate with him more."

After that, Sima Yi waved his hand and asked Shishui to leave. Shishui smiled honestly and did not dare to argue. He could only say, "Okay."

After Shisui left, Sima Yi immediately called Yingshu and ordered, "Go outside and check how the clan leader's family is discussing it?"

"Yes!"

Yingshu nodded in agreement and then immediately set off. It was not the first time he had done such a thing, and even Jinhuo didn't know about it.

After all, Jinhuo was connected to Tiehuo, and Sima Yi was not confident in incorporating it into the intelligence network, so he kept Jinhuo away from these matters.

Yingshu acted quickly and brought back information in less than ten minutes.

"The clan leader and the elders have finished arguing. The specific content of the argument is unknown. In the middle of the argument, someone from the Anbu came and then the news spread in the clan that the Hokage will select two teams from the clan to enter the Anbu."

"Two teams."

Sima Yi pondered for a moment and fell into thought.

Entering the ANBU is not as simple as just being close to the Hokage.

Many high-level missions are not open to the lower levels. Except for a few powerful ninjas, most high-level missions are only issued by the Anbu.

Even if two ninjas have the same strength, as long as they can work in the Anbu, the opportunities and rewards they get will far exceed those of others.

There are many special missions with high rewards and low risks. The Hokage also gives priority to the Anbu, which is why the Anbu has so much funding.

The Uchiha wanted to join the Anbu not just for the sake of face.

"It's still a little short." Sima Yi commented while stroking his long beard while looking at the information. Ying Shu was puzzled, but he was very sensible and didn't ask any more questions.

"No problem, you go down first and pay attention to the situation over there. Report back if there is any news."

"Yes!"

"and many more."

Yingshu was about to leave but was stopped by Sima Yi. He turned around and looked at Sima Yi in confusion.

Sima Yi stood up and found a scroll from under the table, handed it to Yingshu and said, "This is the practice method of Fengxian Fire Technique. It also contains Shisui's practice experience. Take it back and practice it well. If there is anything you don't understand, you can find time to ask Shisui."

Yingshu was delighted and quickly took it, "Thank you, Grandpa Yi!"

His father had left behind the method of practicing the Phoenix Fire Technique, but Shisui's experience in practicing it was quite rare.

After Yingshu left, Sima Yi did not worry too much and quietly studied the sealing technique.

Shisui's actions reminded him that the seal covering the entire yard was still too slow to react and not precise enough.

He also needed to set up sealing arrays in several frequently used rooms in advance in case of emergency.

After I started studying, time passed quickly and in a blink of an eye it was already dusk, and it was still white outside.

Suddenly there was a jingling sound. Sima Yi looked up and saw a black cat with a bell on it pushing open the window and jumping in.

"It's so cold, meow~"

The black cat was wearing a short thin coat and could speak human language. It was Hui's ninja cat.

Although it is called a cat, its body is very broad and somewhat like a dog.

"Did Hui ask you to deliver the letter?"

It was not the first time Sima Yi had seen this, so he did not feel surprised. He stood up, closed the window, and asked naturally.

"Don't start talking about work, meow!"

The black cat was somewhat dissatisfied, so it went straight to the stove and then sat there dejectedly.

"That kid Hui wanted to go eat barbecue with others, but he asked me to come over here in such a cold day to deliver a letter to you. That's really too much, meow!"

Sima Yi smiled and didn't mind. Instead, he cleared away the things on the table to make room for it.

Then he casually took out a thousand taels of paper money and handed it to Black Cat, stroking it with his other hand, "I'll still rely on you for the intelligence."

The black cat smelled the scent of money, and its eyes suddenly lit up, and it let Sima Yi's hand wander over its body.

"You are still the sensible one, meow~"

The black cat took the money and immediately perked up, shaking out the letter stuck between its clothes and fur.

Sima Yi opened the letter and nodded with satisfaction.

The letter told him that the Hokage had dispatched a large number of Anbu this morning, and in just one morning they had captured many spies in the village, including the one who escaped last time.

Then came the reaction within the clan. Although the voices of a coup had been suppressed, the Great Elder and others were still furious and directly recalled all those who had been sent to the Ninja Hospital.

"Hahaha, this is a godsend!"

Sima Yi was overjoyed. He put down the letter and walked around the black cat. "If you are not in a hurry, you can eat here tonight. I will ask someone to buy you a cup of Mu Tian Liao drink."

"Really? You may look like a bad guy, but you're unexpectedly a good person, meow! But if one portion is not enough, can you give me a few more, meow?"

Sima Yi laughed and couldn't help but sigh: "What a greedy little guy."
