Naruto: My Sharingan is about to burst!

Hearing the threatening tone in the Third Hokage's words, Uchiha Kakuzan secretly rolled his eyes, but a happy smile appeared on his face:

"How could that be? The kid was just stunned by the surprise. I, Uchiha Kakuzan, have always dreamed of joining the Anbu to serve the village. How could I possibly be unwilling to go?"

Chapter 41 Itachi Uchiha's Fury

Chapter 41 Itachi Uchiha's Fury

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, softened his expression and smiled again when he heard Uchiha Kakuzan agree to join the Anbu. He then patted Uchiha Kakuzan on the shoulder.

"That's right. Young people shouldn't be afraid of trouble. They need to get more experience so they can take on more important responsibilities in the future."

After hearing the Third Hokage's words, Uchiha Kakuzan nodded repeatedly on the surface, indicating that he agreed with him, but inwardly he was cursing wildly, "Goodness, he's already making empty promises to me before I've even started working. Doesn't he care if I choke on them?"

After settling things off with the Uchiha clan, the Third Hokage wasn't in the mood to stay any longer. After all, one of his favorite juniors, who had always listened to him, had died, and Danzo Shimura had caused him a huge mess that he still had to clean up.

Not only do they need to appease the families, big and small, in the village and dispel their concerns, but they also need to assure them that no one from Konoha Village is after their bloodline limit or family secret techniques.

After seeing the Third Hokage off, Uchiha Kakuzan and Uchiha Fugaku, represented by Uchiha Fugaku, expressed their gratitude to the various clan leaders they had invited.

These families were all shrewd individuals. Seeing that the Uchiha clan was about to move away from Konoha and that there was no longer any conflict of interest between them, they all said it didn't matter and that they should be closer to the Uchiha clan in the future, just as they hadn't been involved when the Uchiha clan was being ostracized before.

The most crucial point is that Uchiha Kakuzan's performance just now was too terrifying. That huge Susanoo was like a god descending to earth. Even Shimura Danzo's Root group, which included many Jonin-level ninjas, were easily defeated by Uchiha Kakuzan with a single slash.

Anyone with common sense wouldn't easily offend the Uchiha clan, who wields such a powerful weapon. Moreover, it's obvious to everyone that Uchiha Kakuzan is only a few years old, yet his strength has already reached the peak of the Kage level. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will undoubtedly become an unparalleled powerhouse in the future.

After seeing off all the clan representatives, big and small, Uchiha Kakuzan and Fugaku finally had time to deal with Uchiha Shisui's funeral arrangements.

Fugaku Uchiha looked at Shisui Uchiha's body lying there with a complicated expression. If it weren't for Uchiha Kakuzan's prophecy and his contingency plan, Shisui Uchiha would have really died this time.

Fortunately, things went according to plan. On the surface, the Uchiha clan lost a genius with great potential, but in reality, they simply moved this genius from the light to the shadows, which was the best way to protect him.

Originally, Uchiha Kakuzan wanted to use the materials on the spot to make a stretcher to carry Uchiha Shisui. At this moment, Uchiha Itachi, who had been silent since Uchiha Shisui's death, said that he could carry Shisui's body back as a way of sending off his most respected Shisui brother on his final journey.

Seeing his eldest son like this, Fugaku Uchiha looked at Okayama Uchiha and asked with his eyes whether he should tell Itachi Uchiha the truth.

Seeing the questioning look in Fugaku Uchiha's eyes, Okazan Uchiha secretly shook his head, indicating that they should not make a fuss for now.

After the Uchiha group finished packing, Itachi carried Shisui's body on his back, protected by the other Uchiha clan members, and headed towards the Uchiha clan's territory in the afterglow of the setting sun.

As the saying goes, if you're going to put on a show, you have to go all the way. After carrying back Uchiha Shisui's body, the group didn't sit idle. They quickly cleaned up Shisui's house and set it up as a mourning hall. Uchiha Itachi volunteered to stay and keep watch, and only then did the clansmen take their leave.

After setting up the memorial hall for Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Kakuzan leisurely left the clan compound and went to Ichiraku Ramen, where he ate several large bowls of ramen. Since training in Lightning Release Armor, his appetite had increased dramatically, to the point where he could barely afford to eat. Correspondingly, his physical abilities had also improved rapidly. Uchiha Kakuzan had a premonition that his physical abilities were about to reach a critical point, at which point he would be able to upgrade his Mangekyou Sharingan to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and his strength would experience a great leap forward.

After teasing the little iris for a while, Uchiha Okayama packed two large portions of ramen, slowly carried them back to the clan's territory, and arrived at Uchiha Shisui's house.

Upon entering Shisui's house, Uchiha Kakuyama saw Uchiha Itachi kneeling upright, burning paper money for Shisui.

Seeing this, Uchiha Kazuyama's lips twitched slightly, and he thought guiltily: If Uchiha Itachi knew the truth, would he chase after him with a sword? Should he run or fight back then? He decided it was best to take Mikoto to the island in the space for a few days. Hmm, the supplies I painstakingly prepared will come in handy now.

Just as Uchiha Kazuyama's thoughts were drifting into a rather dangerous state, Uchiha Itachi noticed him. Upon seeing that it was Uchiha Kazuyama, he politely asked, "Kyuyama-nii, you've come. You've come to see Shisui-nii, right? After all, you two used to be so close." As he spoke, the look in his eyes dimmed.

Seeing the sorrow in Itachi's eyes, Uchiha Kousan lost his joking mood, nodded, placed the things he had brought on the table next to him, and said, "I know you haven't eaten, so I brought you some. Eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it's cold."

Upon hearing Qiu Shan's words, Itachi Uchiha shook his head and refused, saying, "Brother Qiu Shan, I'm not hungry. You should eat first."

Uchiha Kakuzan was stunned for a moment when he heard Uchiha Itachi's words. He looked at the things he had brought before he realized that even when Uchiha Itachi was so sad, his observation skills were still so sharp. He was truly a natural-born ninja.

Seeing that Itachi Uchiha wasn't eating, Qiu Shan didn't mind. He checked the time and felt it was about time, so he went directly to the side of Shisui Uchiha's body. Under Itachi Uchiha's questioning gaze, he yanked off the white cloth covering Shisui Uchiha's body.

After seeing what Uchiha Kakuyama had done, Itachi Uchiha could no longer sit still. He immediately stood up and questioned, "Shisui-nii is already dead. What are you doing? You are desecrating his body."

Seeing that the usually calm Uchiha Itachi had finally lost his temper, Uchiha Okayama felt a little happy for some reason and decided to tease him a little more. "What else does Uchiha Shisui have that I would care about? Of course, it's his greatest legacy—the Mangekyou Sharingan. Rather than letting his Mangekyou rot away with him, I'd rather take it and use it for something useful."

As he spoke, he made a move to step forward.

Seeing Uchiha Kakuzan's despicable behavior, Itachi Uchiha could no longer tolerate it. He took out a kunai, its sharp point pointed directly at Uchiha Kakuzan, and growled, "You dare to touch Shisui's body and see what happens."

Chapter 42 Itachi Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan

Chapter 42 Itachi Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan

Seeing Itachi Uchiha holding a kunai at him, Uchiha Kagami slowly turned around, calmly looking at the furious Itachi.

"Uchiha Itachi, are you serious? How dare you point a weapon at me? Have you thought about the consequences of your actions?"

As he spoke, Uchiha Okayama activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, staring directly at Uchiha Itachi. His mental strength and chakra, enough to overwhelm everyone, were subtly concealed, bringing immense pressure to Uchiha Itachi through the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Feeling the immense pressure from Uchiha Kakuzan, Uchiha Itachi awakened his Sharingan. Initially, it was a three-tomoe Sharingan, but as the pressure from Kakuzan intensified, the three tomoe spun wildly, eventually transforming into three scythe-shaped Mangekyou Sharingan.

With the appearance of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Itachi Uchiha felt that the pressure from Uchiha Kakuyama had lessened considerably, and his violently beating heart calmed down.

Seeing that Uchiha Itachi had revealed his Mangekyou Sharingan under his pressure, and although his aura was not yet stronger than his own, he already felt a faint sense of resistance.

Uchiha Kakuyama's lips curled up slightly as he slowly withdrew his oppressive aura and retracted his Mangekyou Sharingan. He looked at Uchiha Itachi with a smile in his eyes: "As expected of someone Shisui would take a liking to, it seems you've also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Seeing Uchiha Kagami chatting so casually, even the usually brilliant Itachi was somewhat bewildered. Then, with a sudden realization, he asked, "Are you testing me?"

Uchiha Kakuyama pursed his lips, feeling a bit bored, and sat down next to him: "Not really, I was just bored while waiting, so I teased you."

Uchiha Itachi was somewhat angry upon hearing Qiu Shan's words: "Even if you want to test me, you shouldn't desecrate Shisui's body. You were also Shisui's good friend. How can you do this to him?"

Uchiha Kakuzan picked up the kettle on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and said nonchalantly, "What's there to be sorry about? Shisui isn't dead."

Upon hearing Qiu Shan's words, Uchiha Itachi was initially overjoyed, as the ninja world had many techniques for feigning death. He assumed that the technique used was the one for stopping the water. However, he quickly realized the truth, and the hope that had just been ignited in his eyes dimmed again. He shook his head and said:

"I also hope that Shisui's death is fake, but the Third Hokage has already confirmed Shisui's death. Moreover, that old fox Danzo Shimura, how could he have held back when he killed Shisui? Besides, when Shisui died, there were not only people skilled in medical ninjutsu nearby, but also the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan watching. If Shisui faked his death, how could he have escaped their eyes?"

Although Itachi Uchiha said it was impossible, he couldn't help but activate his Mangekyou Sharingan, which he had just deactivated, and carefully examined Shisui Uchiha's body. After thoroughly examining it from head to toe, Itachi deactivated the Mangekyou Sharingan again, as he was still a little unaccustomed to activating it.

Itachi Uchiha rubbed his slightly sore eyes and couldn't help but sigh again. He had just carefully examined Shisui Uchiha with his Mangekyou Sharingan, but he still couldn't find a trace of chakra in him. For ninjas, chakra is the product of the combination of body and spirit. Only when one is completely dead will there be no chakra left in their body.

Seeing Itachi Uchiha sighing, Okayama Uchiha thought to himself, "If Izanagi were so easy to discover or break, Madara Uchiha's faked death wouldn't have been able to fool Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju back then."

Seeing that Itachi Uchiha was still there, looking dejected, Uchiha Kousan did not try to persuade him anymore. After all, judging by the time, it was almost time for Shisui Uchiha to activate Izanagi.

In fact, Uchiha Kakuzan did not have a bad impression of Itachi Uchiha. Although he was partly responsible for the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, the main responsibility lay with Shimura Danzo's instigation, the Third Hokage's indecisiveness, and Uchiha Obito's covert sabotage.

Danzo Shimura acted out of a desire to fulfill the dying wish of his teacher, the Second Hokage, and because he coveted the power of the Sharingan. Obito Uchiha, on the other hand, knew that the Uchiha clan was the biggest obstacle to his "Eye of the Moon" plan. This was because the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan was the best counter to his Kamui. If his Kamui was countered, he would just be an ordinary Kage-level shinobi, and his plan would not be able to proceed. As you can see, it was only after Itachi Uchiha died that Obito felt there was no threat and emerged from the shadows to launch a war against the entire shinobi world.

One of the main reasons why Itachi Uchiha was ultimately forced to annihilate his own clan, leaving only his younger brother alive, was his exceptionally high level of thinking. Having witnessed war and death from a young age, he was more mature than his peers, and his depth and breadth of thought were extraordinary, even surpassing that of adults. This is why the Third Hokage praised him for thinking from the perspective of a Hokage.

While others were still caught up in love, hate, and grudges, he had already transcended ordinary emotions. Therefore, his love had already surpassed the limitations of his family and even the village, which is why he did something that others found incomprehensible—annihilating his own family.

In fact, sometimes it's not a good thing to think about problems from a higher, less personal perspective, because you'll feel out of place with the people around you. That's why Itachi Uchiha only had Shisui Uchiha as a close friend, because Shisui's Will of Fire and Itachi's own thoughts had some similarities.

What Uchiha Kakuzan did was to separate his clan from the village, thus preventing conflict between them and keeping the clan's two geniuses out of the picture. As for their future, we'll discuss that later.

Just then, Uchiha Kiyama keenly sensed a fluctuation, like a drop of water falling onto a calm surface, causing ripples. Kiyama was startled and quickly looked towards Uchiha Shisui.

As if witnessing a miracle, Uchiha Kakuyama watched in disbelief as Uchiha Shisui's body lay there silently, stiff and lifeless. Anyone with eyes could see that he was dead. But in the blink of an eye, the corpse disappeared, and in its place appeared an identical, rosy-cheeked, living person, who was smiling at him.

Itachi Uchiha sensed Uchiha Kakuyama's unusual behavior and looked in the direction of his gaze, his body immediately stiffening.

Chapter 43 Arrangement

Chapter Forty-Three Arrangements

Seeing that Uchiha Shisui had come back to life without any aftereffects, Uchiha Kakuzan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was confident that Izanagi could revive Uchiha Shisui, given the precedent set by Uchiha Madara.

But knowing is one thing, worrying is another. Seeing Uchiha Shisui smiling at him, Uchiha Kakuzan held back for a moment, but couldn't help himself. He strode over, opened his arms, and hugged the bastard who made him worry, patting him a few times. Uchiha Shisui didn't resist and let Uchiha Kakuzan do as he pleased.

After all, he had died once before. Only those who have faced death know what it feels like. Moreover, when he accepted this plan, he was already prepared for the possibility of failing to revive and dying forever. There were too many variables. For example, if he was left in the Root base by Shimura Danzo, then after his death, his Mangekyou Sharingan would definitely be dug out by Shimura Danzo. In that case, the Izanagi hidden in his eyes by Uchiha Kakuzan would not succeed.

Furthermore, who knows if Izanagi will still be effective? After all, Izanagi is a forbidden technique of the Uchiha clan, so its limits are unknown. If it is revived after a period of time, it is unknown whether it will exceed its limits. In that case, it is only possible to revive Uchiha Kakuzan if his Sharingan is upgraded to the Rinnegan and he uses the Rinne Rebirth technique.

Therefore, Uchiha Shisui actually risked his life to carry out Uchiha Kakuzan's plan, not only for the sake of the Uchiha, but also because he trusted Uchiha Kakuzan. That's why he was willing to risk his life to fight for a future for the Uchiha.

Uchiha Shisui's resurrection this time not only excited Qiu Shan, but also Shisui himself, which is why he let Qiu Shan vent his emotions.

Upon seeing Uchiha Shisui resurrected, Uchiha Itachi's previously calm expression vanished, replaced by one of intense excitement. His lips trembled slightly as if he wanted to say something, but despite opening his mouth several times, he could not utter a word.

No matter what, it's impossible to remain calm and composed in front of someone you care about. This can be seen from Itachi Uchiha's awakening of the Mangekyou Sharingan after Shisui Uchiha's death, which shows Shisui's place in Itachi's heart.

After venting his frustrations by hugging Qiu Shan, Uchiha Shisui walked past Qiu Shan and came to Uchiha Itachi. Seeing Itachi's excited expression and eyes filled with intense emotions, he, like Qiu Shan, opened his arms and hugged Itachi tightly.

Once everything had calmed down, Uchiha Shisui looked at Uchiha Okayama and asked with concern, "How did the plan go? No problems, right?"

When Itachi heard Shisui preparing to discuss the plan with Uchiha Kakuzan, he tactfully asked, "Um, should I excuse myself for a moment?"

Uchiha Kakuyama looked at Shisui's expectant eyes, then at Uchiha Itachi's somewhat bewildered expression, and said irritably, "I originally asked you to keep vigil for Shisui so that I could tell you about our plan, but next time, don't point kunai at me."

Itachi Uchiha was quite happy to hear that he could stay, but when he heard Qiu Shan mention that he had pointed a kunai at him, he touched his nose awkwardly and his eyes drifted in another direction.

Seeing Itachi's embarrassment, Uchiha Kousan didn't press the matter. Instead, he told Uchiha Shisui about the progress of the plan: "The Third Hokage has agreed to our Uchiha clan's relocation, but the price is that I'll be assigned to the Anbu. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to kill Shimura Danzo, but he evaded me with Izanagi. I didn't expect that Danzo not only secretly transplanted the Sharingan, but also knew our Uchiha's forbidden techniques. The Third Hokage was present at the time, and to avoid any complications, I didn't continue to pursue him."

Uchiha Shisui nodded in understanding.

Uchiha Okayama paused for a moment, then continued, "Because even if our Uchiha clan relocates, we don't have the resources to set up a school yet. So I made it a condition that the Third Hokage agree to the Uchiha relocation, allowing the Uchiha children to stay and attend school. The parents of these children will also stay to take care of their children..."

When Uchiha Shisui heard that the plan was going smoothly, he breathed a sigh of relief. He loved not only his clan but also the village where he grew up. If it weren't for the irreconcilable conflict between the clan and the village, he would have agreed to and assisted the Uchiha clan's relocation so that neither side would be harmed.

Uchiha Okayama took a sip of water, then said with a smile, "When we were carrying out the plan, we had an unexpected surprise. Because of your death, Uchiha Itachi awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Upon hearing what Qiu Shan said, Uchiha Shisui turned his gaze to Uchiha Itachi. As someone who had been through it all, he knew exactly how much grief was required to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan. Just like Uchiha Obito, who refused to accept the entire world because of Rin's death and wanted to create a world with Rin. It's easy to imagine how deep and pure Itachi's feelings for Shisui must have been to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan because of Shisui's death.

Uchiha Shisui looked into Uchiha Itachi's eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips, and nodded slightly: "Itachi, thank you, and I'm sorry." The thank you was for his feelings, and the apology was for his concern.

Uchiha Itachi understood, of course, and shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, as long as Shisui is alive, that's all that matters. Besides, I've actually benefited from this misfortune by awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Uchiha Kakuyama watched the interaction between the two from the side. After a while, he clapped his hands to get their attention: "Alright, alright, the time for catching up is over. We have important things to do. If you want to chat, there will be plenty of time later."

Seeing the two looking over, Qiu Shan said, "Zhi Shui, it's not convenient for you to go out right now, so I've packed some Ichiraku Ramen for you two. Eat it while it's still warm, and then pack your things. I've already found a good place outside and I need to get you there before dawn."

Seeing their puzzled expressions, Uchiha Kakuzan briefly explained about Uzushima Island and his eye technique 'Takamagahara'. However, he had no intention of giving the spatial imprint to Shisui and Uchiha Itachi. He intended to use it as a trump card for his escape in a critical moment. Aside from those he completely trusted, Uchiha Kakuzan didn't plan to give the spatial imprint to anyone else.

As you can see, Obito Uchiha gave one of his Sharingan eyes to Kakashi, which created an opening in Kakashi's Kamui after Kakashi's identity was exposed, putting Kakashi at a disadvantage. Otherwise, with Kamui, a technique that is practically a bug, Obito Uchiha would have had no problem escaping unscathed.

Chapter 44 Exploring the Island of Whirlpools

Chapter 44 Exploring the Island of Whirlpools

Itachi Uchiha then realized that the other ramen that Uchiha Kakuyama had packed was for Shisui. When he saw Uchiha Kakuyama bring over two ramen, he assumed that one of them was for Uchiha Kakuyama.

Uchiha Shisui didn't stand on ceremony and invited Uchiha Itachi to join him. They took the ramen and started eating it heartily right there in his own mourning hall. It was fortunate that no outsiders came; if they had, they would have been terrified to see the person who should have been lying there quietly eating ramen so enthusiastically.

Uchiha Itachi also let loose. Since he had already embarrassed himself, he didn't care about these things anymore. As if he wanted to compete with Shisui, he quickly started eating.

Unlike Uchiha Kakuzan, neither of them had a big appetite. After eating a large bowl of ramen, they were already quite full. Uchiha Kakuzan didn't say anything. After the two finished eating, he and Uchiha Itachi helped Uchiha Shisui pack up all the things he needed to take from his house and put them in his spatial storage. They would give the things to Shisui after he arrived at Uzushio Island.

As a bachelor, Uchiha Shisui didn't have much to pack. Besides his own belongings, there were only some ninjutsu scrolls, books, and ninja tools left by his parents and elders. So he finished packing quickly. In the end, apart from the equipment he usually used for missions, he handed over everything else he had packed to Uchiha Kakuzan. After all, Shisui had a mission to go to Uzushima Island, and he would get these things from Uchiha Kakuzan after everything was arranged on Uzushima Island.

After everything was finished, Uchiha Kakuyama looked at Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, who were all ready to go, and asked again, "Uchiha Itachi, are you sure you want to go to Uzushima with Shisui? You know, the reason I was in such a hurry to send Shisui there was because I was afraid that the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo would find out about Shisui's faked death. To avoid causing any trouble, I sent Shisui there first to scout out Uzushima. It will take at least three days for the clan head and the elder to organize the first group to go to Uzushima."

Itachi Uchiha, after learning that the Uchiha clan was going to leave Konoha, seemed to have focused his attention on the clan. After all, he was still young and his ideological awareness had not yet reached the level of annihilation of the clan a few years later. He had not been the focus of the Third Hokage and Danzo Shimura's attention and brainwashing. Now that he knew that his beloved Shisui was going to Uzushima Island to pave the way for the Uchiha clan's relocation, Itachi Uchiha was also eager to try and go to Uzushima Island with Shisui Uchiha.

When Uchiha Itachi heard Uchiha Kousan ask again, he didn't get impatient. Instead, he nodded again and said, "Kousan-nii, you can rest assured with Shisui-nii by my side. Besides, I've already awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, so my combat power is definitely not weak. I should be able to help Shisui-nii as well."

Upon hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Uchiha Kazuyama suddenly recalled that in the original work, Uchiha Itachi's health seemed to deteriorate in the later stages. This was probably because he awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan too early, causing too much strain on his body. This is also the cause of most bloodline diseases, as the body cannot withstand such a powerful bloodline before it has fully developed.
