Dressed in black, he looked at the stone tablet in front of him. Fugaku was dead; this was something he hadn't expected.
Although the plot has long been forgotten, the chaos that the Uchiha clan will face next is foreseeable.
When Fugaku died, Itachi was only five years old and wouldn't be able to attend the Ninja Academy until next year. Given Itachi's age, it was clearly impossible for him to become the clan leader.
And stop the water...
If the power called Kotoamatsukami can be explained, then Fugaku's death might not be such a bad thing.
"The captain was assassinated right after the Fourth Hokage left the police force..."
"The Jonin squad and Anbu who went to track them down reportedly found nothing..."
"It's the same on Shisui's side; the enemy seems to have vanished into thin air..."
"The ability to disappear into thin air... During the Third Shinobi World War, I heard that the Fourth Hokage used a single ninjutsu to instantly kill fifty enemy ninjas, right?"
"Space-time ninjutsu, only the Fourth Hokage could perform it..."
"Has Konoha become too intolerant of the Uchiha? We are the founders of this village, the masters of this village."
"Our captain has already been assassinated, we have no chance left..."
"Silence! Don't talk nonsense!"
Listening to the speculations of the Uchiha clan members around him, Yun frowned slightly.
In the original history, judging from Fugaku's attitude, he did not want to rebel, but even such a clan leader was forced to rebel by his clansmen.
Now, with the Uchiha clan gone, we've lost Fugaku. While defection might not matter, for a modern person accustomed to stability and good food, life in Konoha is still better…
……
Chapter Twelve: New Student Enrollment
One year later, at the Konoha Ninja Academy.
"Wherever leaves dance in the air, fire will burn. The fire's shadow will illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout..."
Minato Namikaze on stage seemed to be in the zone, his speech filled with the rhetoric of the Third Hokage.
Yun, sitting in the audience, rubbed her eyes. Quan, who had been unusually excited about the start of school yesterday, had been making a lot of noise and had gone to bed a little late.
However, Yun looked at the crowd behind him.
With her red hair, Kushina Uzumaki held Naruto, who was almost a year old, in her arms. The two, one big and one small, looked at Minato Namikaze on the stage, their eyes shining.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Mikoto Uchiha, the widow of the deceased Uchiha clan leader, was holding one-year-old Sasuke, looking at the aloof child, Itachi Uchiha, in the arena with slight worry.
"call……"
Yun sighed. Itachi, who should have awakened his double tomoe at the age of eight after witnessing his teammate being killed by Obito, had awakened his double tomoe at just over five years old.
For more than a year now, it seems that this mentally ill boy is still caught in a vortex of life and death, often muttering philosophical questions to himself.
Hey……
The changes brought about by Obito are so great; I wonder what Naruto and Sasuke will look like.
Ku's clones haven't yet obtained Obito's medium, and without Kakashi's Kamui assistance, the now-wise Obito is not easy to deal with.
Furthermore, at his current age of six, his chakra reserves are still a weakness, limiting his ability to use the Flying Thunder God Technique. Therefore, it's clear that the red-haired individual isn't necessarily a member of the Uzumaki clan.
And where exactly is that cave where Madara Uchiha died? I need to try and find out from Kakashi in a few years. That cave is definitely not far from where Rin died. I need to find an opportunity...
The orientation speech finally ended amidst the drowsy state of all the new students, and Yun left the playground with Quan. Classes would officially begin tomorrow, but the shadow clone wouldn't.
Headache!
I remember Itachi used Shadow Clone Jutsu in his first year. Was it taught by Shisui or by the deceased Fugaku?
How about we ask Zhishui for help?
……
"Brother, Mother told us to take some tricolor dumplings back with us at noon."
"I remember, we went to the meatball shop first, and then went back for lunch."
Yun nodded and took Quan's little hand as they walked towards the dumpling shop.
Yun doesn't actually like this kind of sweet, but Quan, a child, does, so her mother would occasionally ask her to buy it.
The family's financial situation has improved considerably in the past year. After all, the clone I control has died three times outside, and I've done a lot of things like robbing others to help myself, all thanks to the money from the black market.
"Damn it! There's not enough pork tenderloin today!"
"And the wine too, it has absolutely no taste! Am I wrong?"
"Snapped!"
The person who had been making a fuss was pinned to the ground, and three people tied his hands behind his back and pulled him up.
"You just called us bastards?"
"How dare you, a commoner, insult the Uchiha clan? You drunkard who gets drunk in the middle of the day!"
"You'll regret it once you're in the police department!"
……
The commotion drew Yun's attention, where she saw three people with Uchiha clan crests on their backs holding a drunkard by the back of his hand.
They were police officers, and the drunkard being detained was clearly intoxicated, his face flushed and his speech slurred; it was obvious that saying the alcohol had no taste was a lie.
As the three Uchiha from the police department took the drunkard away, the civilians in the nearby shops began to discuss the matter.
"He's just a drunkard, isn't it too serious to have him locked up?"
"Everyone in the police department knows that if you go in there and don't pay up, you won't get out."
"That person was quite pitiful. He had a son who finally became a ninja, but he died outside the village during a mission a while ago. I heard that even the Chunin who led the team didn't make it back. Apparently, there was an accident during the mission."
"Shh! Stop talking, there are Uchiha over there. Do you want to go to the police department too?"
……
"call……"
A helpless sigh came from beside him. Yun turned his head and glanced at him: "Jonin Shisui, did you just come back from a mission?"
Shisui nodded slightly: "The conflict has been accumulating and deepening."
As he spoke, he looked at Yun and Quan and smiled: "If you're free this afternoon, see you at the fourth training ground. Itachi will also be there. I've prepared a gift for your official enrollment."
Hearing that Itachi was there, Izumi nodded repeatedly, "I want to go too! Did Shisui-nii prepare a present for me?"
Shisui smiled and nodded: "As for Izumi, let Yun take the gift back for you. You're still too young."
These words made Izumi pout instantly: "My brother is only a tiny bit older than me, what do you mean I'm too young, and besides..."
"Snapped!"
Before she could finish speaking, Yun gently patted her head and tied her long, flowing hair into a ponytail: "Listen to me, you have to go to school early tomorrow."
One sentence silenced Quan instantly, and he obediently held Yun's hand.
After saying goodbye to Zhishui, Yun took Quan home.
In the nearly one year since Fugaku's death, the Uchiha clan has not elected a new clan leader. The hawks and doves argue at every clan meeting, and they almost fight to the death.
As the Uchiha's number one genius, Shisui naturally had a greater say at the clan meeting, but he was still somewhat inferior to the two old fogies among them.
After all, age is a major disadvantage.
Fugaku's death casts a shadow over the future Shisui envisioned within the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but what if Shisui were to successfully ascend to power...?
There's also been a change in Danzo's situation. The Fourth and Third Hokage are both alive, and he's become a coward, so it's not easy to cut off his head now.
Time is almost up. If everything goes smoothly this time, we will have the blue and power attributes after speed.
"Brother, why don't you like Itachi?"
The sound of a spring nearby rang out.
Yun looked at her and replied, "Humble, kind, gentle, and a new genius of the Uchiha clan, there must be many girls who like him, right?"
"But for the same reasons, some things became insignificant in Itachi's mind. He thought he was thinking about lofty questions every day: life and death, the meaning of being a ninja, the meaning of the village."
"Those who hold their minds high above others, yet fail to see the true nature of things, are a common ailment among ninjas in this world."
"Quan, someone who appears humble on the outside but places his thoughts on lofty heights is not suitable for you. Following the crowd and liking others is just teenage confusion; speaking of which, adolescence really does come early in this world..."
Quan, who was completely bewildered, was stunned for a moment. Although she didn't understand what her brother was saying, she still felt that what he was saying was very sophisticated.
Just nod!
School starts tomorrow, and I'm really looking forward to starting school with Itachi.
Yun glanced at Quan beside her, sighed, and said nothing more.
That mentally ill person is actually quite good when he's not having an episode. Or should we find a chance to kill him before he opens the kaleidoscope?
Wouldn't that make him a sister-obsessed person?
Bringing her scattered thoughts back, Yun looked into the distance. There was still one month left before the second opening of the intelligence exchange.
……
Chapter Thirteen: Become the Clan Chief
"Shh!"
A kunai was thrown from his hand and hit the center of the target not far away.
"Bang bang bang..."
The sound from beside him made Yun, who had just been feeling smug, turn into a black line on his face. So, do all the ninjas in this world come with built-in scopes?
Holding three kunai in one hand, how could you possibly hit the bullseye simultaneously? And the starting directions were all different!
Just think about Rock Lee's reverse triple kick during the Chunin Exams twelve years later, Lord Bull must be turning in his grave.
"Phew... So geniuses are just a blow to self-confidence."
