Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 74 It would be great if Shisui-sama became the clan leader

"That's good. It seems I was worrying too much. Thank you for your hard work. You don't have to go with them tomorrow. Just go to work with peace of mind."

After the meal, Hui found time to report Itachi's performance to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi nodded. Itachi was still a child after all, and there was no problem as long as his thoughts could be corrected. There was no need for him to take the risk of letting Shisui lose his composure and disrupt his plan by killing him.

"Why do I have to go to work? I really don't want to go."

Hui's mouth twitched. He had originally wanted to relax, but after Sima Yi's reminder, he remembered that he was just on vacation.

Sima Yi smiled, and seeing that the other party was still here, he said: "I remember before the New Year"

"That's right, Uncle Yi is indeed right. The matter of the Police Department is indeed important. I have to go back and rest quickly so that I can be energetic to protect everyone in Konoha tomorrow!
That's it, say cheer up and good night to Shisui for me!"

Before Sima Yi finished speaking, Hui suddenly clapped his hands as if he had just remembered something, interrupted the conversation and continued talking on his own, then ran away.

Before leaving, he helped Sima Yi close the door.

"this kid"

Sima Yi chuckled and shook his head, not caring.

"Thank you for today, Grandpa!"

Not long after Hui left, Shisui also came to the study. He stood in front of the desk and thanked him solemnly.

Sima Yi asked calmly, "Because of Itachi?"

Shisui nodded first, then remained silent for a moment before slowly shaking his head, "Because of Itachi, but not entirely because of Itachi. You made me realize how shallow I was before. Thank you very much!"

'You still don't realize it.'

Sima Yi sighed. He really wanted to tell Shisui this.

Why did he put these people at the end? Because he didn't care about these ordinary people at all, because these people should be the least valuable to them.

But Shisui saw his own so-called shallowness in these people.

At this point, how could Sima Yi not know the difference in their philosophies? However, he has never been a rigid person. Since the other party is difficult to change and he cannot replace him, it would be okay for him to be a little submissive.

As long as it doesn't affect the overall situation.

"Reflect on yourself three times and summarize your mistakes. You have grown a lot by having this awareness."

"These are all my grandfather's teachings."

"Take them and distribute the supplies as soon as possible. You can also take care of the tribesmen who are in particularly difficult situations."

"Yeah, I understand Grandpa!"

Seeing that Sima Yi allowed him to go ahead and do it, Zhishui was immediately delighted and thanked him repeatedly.

"By the way, have you not fallen behind in your studies recently?"

The homework refers to clan history and sealing techniques.

"I have read through the clan history several times, and my sealing technique has made great progress, but I am still far from my grandfather's level."

Shisui had learned the sealing technique before, but he had only dabbled in it. He didn't quite understand why Sima Yi attached so much importance to the sealing technique, but he rarely missed the other party's suggestions. He chose to accept them humbly and took time to practice it with concentration.

"That's good. No matter what, make sure you don't fall behind in the progress of the Sealing Technique. As for the rest, you can make your own arrangements."

"Yes."

Shisui agreed, and then they went about their business.

In the next few days, Shisui took Itachi to continue distributing supplies to various parts of the tribe. In order to let people from all over the tribe see them, Sima Yi suggested that they change their positions every day and not continue from the previous day.

Although this will add a lot of trouble, you won't make any mistakes if you are a little more careful with the list in hand.

Itachi followed closely behind Shisui, and he was always filled with guilt and self-blame as he witnessed the misery of his people time and time again. His emotions were extremely complicated as he expressed gratitude and cried time and time again, as if something in his chest was about to burst out.

So, one evening a few days later.

"Thank you, Master Shisui. I'm lucky to have you. I'm really grateful!"

Listening to the woman's sincere thanks, Shisui and Itachi waved goodbye with smiles on their faces. After the two left, the woman looked at the delivered supplies and Shisui's receding back, wiping away her tears and thinking, "It would be great if Lord Shisui was the clan leader."

The two of them walked along the clan's path facing the setting sun, Shisui pushing the cart and Itachi following behind.

“Is this the last one?”

Shisui looked back and replied with a smile, "Well, Itachi, are you tired? It's okay, you don't have to continue starting tomorrow."

"What will they do next?"

Itachi shook his head. He wasn't stupid enough to think that little bit of stuff was enough for someone to live on for a lifetime.

"Is Itachi worried about them?" Shisui looked at Itachi's expression and felt deeply relieved.

"Well, this is the family's fault. I want to compensate them on behalf of my father." Itachi recalled the elders who had frequently come to his house to argue with his father in recent days, and he couldn't help feeling disgusted and guilty.

"Those things are enough for them to use for the next half month, and half a month is enough time for us to solve all of this."

"So don't worry, just work hard with me."

The clear direction, definite purpose and Shisui's confidence saved Itachi from being confused and made him feel relaxed.

He nodded slightly and followed Shisui closely.

At night, after separating from Shisui, he returned home. There were many people guarding inside and outside the yard, including Tetsuka. When they saw Itachi, they all signaled.

Itachi responded politely one by one, then he crossed the corridor and skillfully came to a door in the wall.

"Why can't we ask the Third Generation for an explanation? The reason why those people outside are rejecting us so much is because of the Third Generation's arrangement!"

"The Konoha high-level officials are doing nothing and bullying us like this. We might as well launch a coup and take back everything that belongs to the Uchiha."

"The top brass have already given in. They just want to make our ceremony easier. We can't do that. Maybe we can just have a good discussion with them."

"That was obviously intentional. How did we become the domineering Uchiha? Damn it!"

The quarrels became more frequent from morning to night.

Itachi sat aside and listened quietly. After a while, he felt a little impatient for the first time and stood up and left.

"Since we are divided, let's hold a clan meeting to decide!"

In the hall, the great elder who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke up and made a suggestion.

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped arguing, and several elders who had different opinions quieted down. They looked at each other and nodded.

Seeing that everyone agreed to hold a clan meeting, Fugaku had a headache but had no choice but to agree.

An argument that had lasted for several days finally ended, although they had not come to an agreement on anything.

But Fugaku knew that this was just the beginning. According to past practices, the clan would not end so easily, nor would it be so easy to reach a result through discussion.

As long as there is a dispute, he has time to continue thinking about how to resolve the conflict peacefully.

After the elders left, Tiehuo also came in from outside.

"Go to the police department and make arrangements. We will hold a clan meeting tomorrow afternoon."

Fugaku's voice sounded a little tired, and Tiehuo lowered his head with mixed feelings.

"Yes."
