I, Uchiha: Split Konoha

Chapter 72 The village belongs to the Uchiha! (Please continue reading)

The village of Konoha, shrouded in night, exudes an atmosphere of peace.

Moonlight streamed into the office of the Seventh Division of the Police Department. The room seemed somewhat messy, and there were three figures inside.

"The intelligence is false? A divisive tactic by the enemy? Then why?!"

At this moment, Kakashi was filled with deep self-blame. The image of Uchiha Yoru's two tomoe, exuding a sharp killing intent, kept echoing in his mind. He knew that if he dared to leak this information, the other party would probably really kill him.

"If this is true!"

At that moment, Kakashi thought of a certain possibility, and a look of fear and tension immediately appeared in his eyes.

The Third Hokage, as described by Danzo, was a terrifying schemer. However, the information he just provided suggests that Danzo was also a ruthless individual. On the contrary, the Uchiha clan, who were subjected to immense oppression, were also burdened with the responsibility of protecting Konoha's safety.

"Protecting Konoha, is this the duty of the police department?" Kakashi murmured to himself, as if he remembered the declaration he made when he first joined the police department. The police department was filled with determination to protect Konoha and the village, which seemed to be the duty of the police department.

"Is this the real Uchiha?!"

Kakashi gave a bitter smile. It seemed ironic that the Uchiha clan was protecting Konoha, but that was exactly what he was experiencing firsthand.

Pride, strong self-esteem, arrogance, and conceit are all characteristics of the Uchiha clan, but what he actually perceived was the face hidden beneath these traits.

The Third Hokage was a schemer, Danzo was an unscrupulous person, and the Uchiha clan was involved in the Nine-Tails' rampage. At this moment, Kakashi's mind was in a mess, and he even felt a deep sense of unfamiliarity.

Konoha! This peaceful and warm village doesn't seem to be as good as he imagined; beneath it lies endless darkness.

"The Nine-Tails is being manipulated by the Sharingan, and Root is secretly collecting Sharingan! Could it be?!" When a certain possibility suddenly occurred to him, Kakashi's eyes were filled with deep fear, as if he were suffocating.

Touching his left Sharingan, Kakashi was filled with fear. "The Nine-Tails is controlled by the Sharingan, but the Sharingan isn't only controlled by the Uchiha clan. So...!"

If Danzo of Root really did collect the Sharingan, then there would be another suspicious clue regarding the Nine-Tails' attack. Root is part of the Hokage lineage, so did the Third Hokage know about this? And what role did he play in it?

Kakashi looked at his classmate with a complicated expression. He didn't even realize that the paralysis caused by the lightning attribute was gradually disappearing from his body over time. Similarly, Uchiha Shisui was also unable to calm down.

At this moment, Shisui's three-tomoe Sharingan spun wildly in his eye sockets, but finally stopped there. In the police department's office, moonlight streamed in, and Uchiha Yoru sat calmly in his chair.

"Brother Ye!"

At this moment, Shisui wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't know how to start. Uchiha Yoru calmly looked at the two sitting upright in their chairs and said indifferently, "Let's pretend that tonight's events never happened. Forget about tonight. Shisui, you are still my clansman. Kakashi, I will still consider you my comrade. Even on the battlefield, I will still entrust my back to you."

As Uchiha Yoru slowly closed his eyes, he sat in his office chair, seemingly enjoying the moonlight. However, to the two of them, this scene was a testament to the man who carried everything and persevered.

The information they just received was immediately imprinted in their minds thanks to the Sharingan's exceptional perception and copying abilities.

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After waiting for three whole days, the fish finally took the bait. He had originally planned to catch Kakashi, but he never expected to have Shisui as an unexpected bonus.

The information he deliberately hid in his office was very simple: information about Uchiha clan members who had died unexpectedly or even seemingly blinded themselves before their deaths during the Third Uchiha War.

Various clues suggest that the village's secret organization or Root is secretly plotting to collect Sharingan. So far, there are a total of six pairs of three-tomoe Sharingan suspected of being missing.

These are all true, but whether there are any clues to prove whether it's the Root or the Dark Side is something he added. But he also knows that what he added is also true.

If you want to fool people, no! If you want to bring Kakashi into your team, the most important thing is to never fabricate anything, because lies will always be exposed one day.

When did Danzo begin transplanting the Sharingan in the original work? It's not explicitly stated, but based on some information from the anime, Danzo definitely had it transplanted before the massacre of his clan.

First, when Kakashi was in the Anbu, Danzo ordered Yamato to retrieve Kakashi's Sharingan. Second, Danzo used the forbidden technique Izanagi when he took Shisui's right eye.

From the above, we can conclude that Danzo had already obtained the power of the Sharingan before the Uchiha clan massacre, after all, the transplanted and cultivated arm was Orochimaru's doing. And shortly after the massacre, Itachi joined Akatsuki, and Orochimaru, after being defeated, became obsessed with the Sharingan. At that point, how could Orochimaru possibly be so kind as to provide Danzo with these things?

Therefore, it can be inferred that Danzo's Sharingan transplant into his arm was done before Orochimaru defected.

"Night!" Kakashi clutched the wound on his shoulder, looking at his old classmate with a complicated expression. Seeing the atmosphere, he silently left the office using the Body Flicker Technique, disappearing into the darkness as a black dot leaped away.

When only the two of them remained in the office, Shisui said in a deep voice with a solemn expression, "Brother Ye, my surname is Uchiha! I am a member of the Uchiha clan, and I have the right to know all this!"

At this point, Zhishui revealed a look of shame, as if all the darkness was carried forward by Brother Ye, while he, with all his strength, knew nothing.

"Brother Ye! Please! I'm an Uchiha too!"

Finally, Uchiha Shisui solemnly and directly made a very proper request to get up from his seat. Shisui lowered his head and seemed unable to get up until he heard the voice he wanted.

Seeing Shisui's persistence, Uchiha Yoru's seemingly feigned composure slowly faded, and finally, a long, weary sigh echoed in the dimly lit office.

"Shisui, you must remember the glory of the Uchiha surname. Konoha was founded by the Uchiha and Senju. Now that the Senju is gone, the Uchiha must shoulder the responsibility of protecting Konoha."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru's face was full of determination, as if to say, "Shisui, your thinking is a bit narrow-minded. How can you only care about your clan?"

Upon hearing this, Shisui was startled and secretly blamed himself. Yes, when did his thinking become so narrow-minded? He only thought about himself as an Uchiha and forgot about the village.

It is never easy to gradually change a person's beliefs, and Uchiha Yoru never thought of destroying other people's beliefs. Rather than destroying beliefs, it is better to change the other person's vague beliefs to their own before they are unclear about them.

At this moment, Shisui was unaware that his beliefs were gradually becoming clearer. As his obsession with protecting Konoha grew stronger, he unknowingly regarded Konoha as the place where the Uchiha were founded.

The village belongs to the Uchiha!
