"....."
Shisui was suddenly choked up, and after a long silence, he nodded vigorously and gritted his teeth, saying:
"Although our ideologies differ and Kazuki has many misunderstandings about me, I have to admit his proposal is correct. Despite the additional expenses, it can reduce a lot of trouble for both our Uchiha clan and the Police Department."
"What about the Doves?"
Fugaku continued to inquire.
Shisui himself was one of the representatives of the Doves.
In the current Uchiha clan, the Doves’ situation could not be more awkward.
While it wasn’t as serious as being hated by everyone, it wasn’t much better either.
Fugaku was curious; If Kazuki had caused all this trouble, did Shisui harbor any resentment toward him as one of the Doves?
It was another fatal and piercing question, and Fugaku was hammering away at Shisui’s sore spot.
Shisui remained silent for a moment.
"At the moment, it seems he’s right. I also believe that everything he’s done is for the good of the Uchiha clan. If doing this can improve the clan, reduce conflicts with the village, then I’d rather the Doves disappear from the clan."
After much thought, Shisui gave a very balanced answer, not favoring either side.
Even though these matters had caused him a lot of trouble, Shisui didn’t bring his personal emotions into his response to Kazuki’s attack on his most respected elder.
"..."
Fugaku’s gaze remained calm, but his words startled Shisui.
"If... his purpose is not just that, but to take my place as clan leader and control the entire Uchiha clan?"
Shisui suddenly felt an urge to rub his ears. He suspected he had misheard or was hallucinating.
Shisui was completely stunned, as if struck by lightning on a sunny day. His mind buzzed incessantly.
"Clan leader, I think Kazuki shouldn’t have that kind of ambition..."
Shisui’s words were incoherent. He didn’t even know what he was saying, nervously chuckling, trying to ease the eerie atmosphere.
"No, he does."
Fugaku said with utmost certainty, indicating he wasn’t joking.
"From his series of actions, his next step is to target the hardliners, gradually dissolve this faction. He has already laid a solid foundation within the clan, and many young people in the clan will gradually support him because of what he has done."
"When the time is ripe, he will gradually dissolve the hardliners and consolidate the clan’s power."
"Shisui, when that time comes, what do you think Kazuki will do next?"
Shisui’s mind exploded.
Fugaku continued:
"By then, I will be the stumbling block in his way. If he wants to control the entire Uchiha clan’s power, he has to remove me. When all the clan’s power is concentrated in his hands, do you think my position as clan leader can still be maintained?"
"I will stop him."
Shisui hurriedly got up; he wanted to find Kazuki and ask him clearly.
If Kazuki’s ambition is really that great, he must stop him, even if it means using Amaterasu against him.
"Sit down!"
Fugaku’s voice floated over, and Shisui, who had just stood up, froze for a few seconds, dejectedly sitting back down.
Reprimanded by Fugaku.
Fugaku slowly poured himself a cup of tea, savoring it carefully.
"I’m telling you this not to stop him. Shisui, although there are many misunderstandings among the clansmen, I still trust you and believe in you."
"Clan leader, what do you want me to do?"
Shisui gritted his teeth and lowered his head.
Fugaku said something astonishing:
"Join the ANBU. When necessary, provide some of the clan’s intelligence to the village. But at the same time, secretly assist Kazuki. As long as he follows the steps I mentioned, do not hinder him in any way."
Shisui couldn’t believe his ears.
"Why..."
Shisui struggled to swallow his saliva, unable to believe that the clan leader would say such things.
For Shisui, who had a very strong sense of hierarchy, this was almost as if the sky were falling.
"Because when it reaches that point, it won’t matter who becomes the clan leader. What’s important is that the Uchiha will rise again."
Fugaku’s eyes showed rare excitement, and Shisui’s heart felt like it had been struck by a hammer.
The secret meeting didn’t last long.
When everything was over, Shisui was still a bit muddled.
Everything seemed like a dream.
Sitting on a power line in the clan’s territory, Shisui was like a ghost in the night, blending into the darkness, quietly blowing the cool night breeze, trying to clear his mind.
But Fugaku’s words lingered in his mind, telling him that this was not a dream, that everything was real.
After sitting for who knows how long, Shisui finally sorted out his complex emotions and returned home.
There were many things waiting for him to deal with tomorrow, and there would be various troubles in joining the ANBU.
A new day arrived, but Kazuki was confined to the office, not even included in the patrol tasks.
As a result, Izumi, who had just joined the police department, also had some leisure time, undertaking the role of Kazuki’s little secretary, serving tea, water, cleaning, and organizing files.
Accustomed to being surrounded by rough men, Kazuki suddenly had a hard time adapting.
Being unable to roam around meant he couldn’t stake out Sasuke and Naruto for a short time.
Sasuke was fine, as he could catch him going to school with good luck.
As for Naruto, Kazuki had no choice.
Given the current level of surveillance by the higher-ups, using the Sharingan on Naruto was quite challenging.
"Copy."
Kazuki hadn’t used today’s copy opportunity yet, so he decided to use it on Izumi.
"Copy successful, obtained partial Sharingan eye power. Would you like to merge it?"
Kazuki hadn’t expected Izumi to give him a surprise. The reward for copying was actually partial Sharingan eye power!
Kazuki was already familiar with the routines of cycle
If lucky, he could gain spiritual power, eye power, and other rewards like Indra, Asura, and Chakra.
If unlucky, he could only gain some ninjutsu, physical arts, swordsmanship training, and experience in their use.
The rewards varied.
The higher the potential of the target being copied, the better the rewards.
From the rewards, Kazuki could see the potential of Izumi.
