It's normal to get a kaleidoscope as a first deposit of six yuan, right?

Shisui started to fill in the blanks in his mind, but when Shisui mentioned her precognitive ability, the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui felt a little unreal.

His ability to forcibly control enemies with his Kotoamatsukami eye technique is already incredibly powerful, but now he also possesses the power to foresee the world?

"Zhixue, are you serious? Or are you joking?" Zhishui asked, staring suspiciously at Zhixue's youthful face.

"Of course it's true, believe me." Zhi Xue said without blushing or panting, and winked sincerely at Zhi Shui.

Despite Zhixue's best efforts to conceal it, Zhishui simply didn't believe her.

How could it be possible to predict the future?

“Nii-san, don’t disbelieve me, my eyes can indeed see the future, such as your suicide and the extinction of the Uchiha clan.”

Upon hearing this, Shisui's pupils contracted. He had to admit that this was indeed very possible. If the Uchiha clan insisted on carrying out a coup, he would have no choice but to use his own death to slow down the process and create an opportunity for the Hokage and Itachi to make peace. If the Uchiha clan's coup failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"What other information about the future did you see?" Shisui, somewhat convinced of the possibility of this eye technique that allows one to foresee the future, asked Shisui with curiosity and concern.

"Well, cough cough, I'll tell you the details when we get home." Zhi Xue shook her head, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she could keep her brother calm and prevent him from dying, that would be fine. In addition, another idea kept sprouting in her mind.

Nine-Tails, I choose you!

……

While Shisui was still trying to fool Shisui, in the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi also asked Danzo about the power of Shisui's eye technique "Kotoamatsukami".

"Asking me is useless. Didn't you personally question him alone before? But you should have been more careful. If Shisui had used Kotoamatsukami to pledge allegiance to the Uchiha clan, then Konoha might have..." Danzo didn't finish his sentence, but Hiruzen Sarutobi knew what might happen next.

It's nothing more than the Uchiha clan gradually seizing power from Konoha through a different kind of coup. However, Hiruzen Sarutobi believes that Shisui wouldn't do that, but just in case, it's still necessary to take relevant measures.

"You don't need to say anything more about that. I will take precautions myself regarding the Kotoamatsukami incident, but you are being too aggressive. Just because you know about Shisui's eyes, you mobilized a large number of Root members to capture Shisui. Do you know how much damage this terrible operation will cause to Konoha?" Hiruzen Sarutobi snorted irritably.

"Sarutobi, you are too merciful. You actually let the Uchiha clan control such a terrifying power as Kotoamatsukami. And that brat Uchiha Shiyuki, I don't know what he has, he broke a lot of my Root. And the summoning beast Manda, don't you think there's something fishy going on?"

Upon hearing that the snow had stopped, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a couple of puffs of his pipe, his brows furrowing.

During the investigation, one of Danzo's Root squads mysteriously disappeared while capturing Shizuka, which needs to be thoroughly investigated. As for Manda... Hiruzen Sarutobi also knows about this snake. According to Orochimaru, it's impossible to mobilize this snake to help without offering 100 people as sacrifices. But where would Shizuka, a little girl, find 100 sacrifices?

Chapter 77, The New Plan

"Hey, something's not right with you today. Why are you feeding me so much chakra?" In Zhi Xue's inner space, the little Nine-Tails, who had become as fat as a ball, looked at Zhi Xue with a strange gaze and said.

It's been very strange lately. Whenever Zhixue has chakra, she feeds it to him. This is a very strange phenomenon.

"Ah, you don't need to worry about that. It's just that I'll need your help in the future, so you'll need to become stronger." Zhi Xue sat next to the Nine-Tails and comfortably stroked its smooth tail.

The little Nine-Tails grew rapidly under her guidance. Although its size did not increase, its chakra increased exponentially every day. Now it has a terrifying 60 calories of chakra in its body. Although it is still a bit small, it should be enough to cope.

She has a vague plan, in which the Nine-Tails is the key element, and she also needs to go and have a serious talk with her older brother.

Back in reality, Zhixue felt a little weak, so she put two soldier pills in her mouth, and soon felt much better.

Two full days have passed since that incident. At first, Zhixue could still sense the Anbu's surveillance of her, but since this morning, the surveillance has disappeared because Konoha is now facing another very worrying matter.

The Uchiha clan coup will likely happen either in the next week or the following week, and Konoha no longer has enough manpower to monitor her.

While Zhixue was still thinking, Obito secretly slipped into Zhixue's house again.

Hearing footsteps coming from the living room, Zhixue pushed open the bedroom door and said somewhat unhappily.

"Can't you even knock politely?"

"I'm used to using space-time ninjutsu to get around, so doors are just decorations to me. By the way, it's about time. When are you leaving Konoha with me?"

Obito naturally wanted Zhixue to leave as soon as possible, as he still needed to go to the Uchiha clan to collect the corpses. If it were in front of Zhixue, he wouldn't be able to freely collect more Sharingan.

"Leaving Konoha isn't urgent. I have something important to do. Also... could I borrow your disguise?" Zhixue looked up at Obito's mask and said thoughtfully.

"A disguise?" Obito was momentarily stunned.

"Of course, I'm just borrowing your identity. Before leaving Konoha, I need to present a grand gift to the esteemed Lord Danzo. In addition, I need to use external forces to force Konoha and the Uchiha clan to stop their current internal strife."

What Shisui was saying was nothing more than deliberately releasing information in advance to create the effect of making it seem like Madara Uchiha's conspiracy was discovered by Shisui beforehand. Then, Madara Uchiha would be furious and attack Konoha with the Nine-Tails, and Shisui Uchiha would step forward to protect the villagers, deal with the Nine-Tails, and put on a good show. This would greatly improve the reputation of the Uchiha clan while also subtly revealing a message to Konoha and the Uchiha clan.

Right now, Konoha is being watched by me, Uchiha Madara. As long as you cripple each other, I'll immediately take action. When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.

Upon hearing Zhixue's arrogant remarks, Obito couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahahaha... I must say you're still just a child. Even if I were an old man, I'm afraid it wouldn't be of any use in this matter, would it?"

At this moment, Obito admitted that he had overestimated Zhixue; such childish behavior should not be difficult to control.

hum...

Just as Obito was still laughing wildly, an unusual threat made his hair stand on end.

"Is that the Mangekyou Sharingan?" Obito was also quite surprised when he saw the clover pattern appearing in Zhixue's eyes.

“I will naturally have my own plans. When the time comes, I will go back to the organization with you. That was my suggestion, wasn’t it? But my brother, Uchiha Shisui, is out of the question.”

Zhi Xue shook her head and said.

"Heh, how can you be so sure he won't leave Konoha like you after he turns evil?" Obito said with a hint of amusement, but when Shiyuki came close to him and told him about the power of Kotoamatsukami, Obito immediately changed his mind.

Recruiting Uchiha Shisui into the organization? Impossible, absolutely impossible! They won't let him know a single hair on the Akatsuki's head!

"You didn't tell him about the organization, did you?" Obito asked Zhixue with a hint of wariness.

Zhi Xue innocently shrugged.

"You're wronging me. I'm just a lazy bum who only wants to keep things simple. Of course, I wouldn't tell you anything complicated."

Obito looked at Shisue's Mangekyou Sharingan with suspicion and took two steps back warily.

Stop Snow: ?

"What are you doing?" Zhi Xue looked at Obito's strange actions and scratched her head in confusion.

"Your kaleidoscope doesn't possess abilities similar to Kotoamatsukami, does it? Or am I already under a genjutsu?"

Stop Snow:………

After Zhixue revealed the power of Kotoamatsukami, she felt that Obito's gaze towards her had changed, and he would occasionally act strangely, talking behind her back.

Obito didn't stay at Shisui's place for long. After learning that Shisui had a Mangekyou Sharingan, he felt uneasy, especially at Shisui's house.

After Obito left, Shiki was still holding the tiger-striped mask he had left behind. Obito himself wanted to see how Shiki would handle this matter.

Touching the delicate texture of the mask, Zhixue used her transformation jutsu to become Obito, put the mask on her face, and carefully examined herself in front of the full-length mirror.

Hmm... the effect is not bad, it looks pretty cool. If you add a knife and a hood, it will have a tiger skin vibe.

After Obito left, Shisui returned home before it was time to leave work. His eyes still held a hint of irritation and worry, but when he looked at Shisui sitting on the sofa in the living room, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

"My sister is the best..."

"Good afternoon, Nii-san." When Zhi-xue saw Zhi-shui arrive, she quickly helped him to the sofa.

"Huh? Zhixue, what are you doing?"

Zhi Xue sat down next to Zhi Shui, then breathed a sigh of relief and, mimicking Zhi Shui's previous actions, poked Zhi Shui's forehead with her slender fingers.

"My dear Nii-san, after I leave, I entrust the Uchiha clan to your care. I believe you will definitely help the Uchiha clan escape danger."

"Zhixue, you don't have a fever today?" Zhishui asked, touching Zhixue's forehead in confusion.

“Nii-san, I’m telling the truth. I have a plan that can save the Uchiha clan…” Zhi Xue slapped away the large hand covering her forehead and said very seriously.

As she spoke, Shiyu released a wisp of Nine-Tails chakra. The immense aura rushed straight towards Shisui's face. He hadn't quite sensed it when Shiyu transferred chakra to him before, since what he tasted was different from what he saw outside. But now he seemed to realize that this aura was like that of the Nine-Tails...

……

At night, the noisy Uchiha shrine was filled with elders of all ranks from the Uchiha clan, as well as Chief Fugaku and the elite younger generation of officers. Meanwhile, within the Uchiha clan's territory, thousands of Uchiha clan members were undergoing pre-battle training under the cover of darkness.

Pairs of scarlet eyes stared intently ahead like the gaze of demons, sending chills down one's spine and making one's hair stand on end with just a glance.

Chapter 78, The Eve of the Storm

"Sarutobi, are you just going to leave Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Shisuke like this?" Danzo rushed into the Hokage's office just after morning and said to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"I can't give a proper evaluation of Shisui yet. Although I believe Shisui will do his best to resolve the conflicts within the Uchiha clan, we still need to prepare for the worst. As for Uchiha Shiyuki, we no longer have the manpower to waste monitoring her. In the near future, the Anbu needs to be in a state where it can always be at its best to deal with any coup attempt by the Uchiha clan."

Danzo looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had his eyes closed, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Hard to judge... That's a good word... So you're also afraid of Kotoamatsukami's power? Hehehe...

"Ah, since you've already said so, then I have no further advice. However, Sarutobi... that brat Uchiha Shiyuki has been shrouded in mystery and her presence has been felt throughout these past few months. I hope you'll keep a close eye on her." Danzo closed the door and left.

Mentioning Shiyu, Danzo felt a sharp pain in his heart. That was an entire class! While chasing after that brat Uchiha Shiyu, they inexplicably vanished from Konoha, leaving no trace even of the cursed seal.

After Uchiha Shisui dies, he will definitely make that despicable brat pay the price he deserves...

……

At Fugaku's residence, Shisui also found Fugaku and said something shocking to him.

That is, following the Nine-Tails' attack, Madara Uchiha is about to unleash a new wave of disasters. This time, the opportunity will be a coup d'état by the Uchiha clan. Taking advantage of the tension between the two sides, and the fact that Konoha and the Uchiha are at their weakest after the great war, Madara will seize the opportunity to destroy the entire Konoha, including the Uchiha clan.

"Shisui, where did you get this information? Is it reliable? If Madara Uchiha were still alive, he would be a centenarian on the verge of death by now. How could he possibly still have the energy to control the Nine-Tails?" Fugaku asked Shisui with a hint of disbelief.

"I don't know. I just happened to hear a conversation in a corner while I was on a mission. The enemy seemed to have extraordinary space-time ninjutsu, so I was unable to catch up."

Shisui shook his head regretfully. He had no evidence and could only rely on a fabricated lie to set up a pretext in Fugaku's mind.

After conveying this message to Fugaku, Shisui left.

Madara Uchiha, the clan leader abandoned by the Uchiha clan many years ago, was once known as the Asura of the Shinobi World. According to historical records, he died in a duel with the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.

However, during the Nine-Tails' rampage five or six years ago, the Uchiha clan also suspected that Madara Uchiha was behind it, because in history, he was the only one who had controlled the Nine-Tails with the Mangekyou Sharingan. However, due to insufficient evidence and Konoha's rejection, the matter was gradually forgotten.

However, Shisui has now brought up the name Uchiha Madara again, which makes Fugaku feel uneasy.

If it really were Madara Uchiha, would he regret the past ties with his clan and refrain from attacking the Uchiha clan? Fugaku himself didn't know, but if that were to happen, he dared not gamble. He dared not gamble that after eliminating the Hokage's lineage from both sides, Madara Uchiha would turn his sharpest spearhead against the Uchiha clan.

Within the Anbu, Shisui and Itachi stood together. Itachi's eyes were filled with confusion; he could no longer see whether the future of the Uchiha clan would be filled with bloodshed and tragedy, or with glory and light. He knew nothing. Now, in this unfamiliar Konoha, only Shisui and Sasuke could give him a sense of safety and warmth.

"Itachi, do you... think that if Konoha as a whole, including the Uchiha clan, were to face an impending catastrophe, would the village and the Uchiha unite?" Shisui asked One Against Seven with a hint of inquiry.

"The time of destruction... but that seems too far away from us. Even if the Uchiha clan failed, Konoha only reached a period of extreme decline." Itachi shook his head.

How powerful must one be to destroy Konoha?

"Ah, so it's a hypothetical situation. If Konoha were to suffer an even more ferocious Nine-Tails attack than it did a few years ago, would the Uchiha clan and Konoha reconcile and join forces to deal with the disaster?"

Shisui's reverie startled Itachi.
