Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

"So I had to ask Nara Shikaku for leave and then use the Body Flicker Technique to rush back."

"I just got back from the Hokage's office. To be honest, even though Hiruzen Sarutobi said he supported me, I still feel a little uneasy."

"I think the Hokage still doesn't believe me."

"That's why I came to find you right away."

Zhi Shui shrugged.

He was truly helpless, and quite exhausted right now.

Yes.

While the Body Flicker Technique is powerful, the distance from the border of the Land of Fire to Konoha is quite far.

He wanted to get back so quickly; who knows how he managed to endure it?

and so.

After drinking several glasses of water, his body slumped down.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

After hearing Shisui's words, he had to admit that Kazama's idea was correct.

My initial thoughts were a bit too simplistic.

Although I really wanted to know what Shisui and Hiruzen Sarutobi talked about.

But he forced himself to hold back and instead briefly explained his plan to Aburame Shiki and Fugaku.

Fugaku and Aburame Shiki gasped upon hearing this.

When Zhishui first walked in, they were completely dumbfounded.

What's going on?

Shisui wants to join the Hokage, yet he comes to report to Jin?

Now I understand.

This is a pretense of joining the Hokage, and then he and Uchiha Jin are preparing to put on a show together!

Especially Jhin's purpose, which made them exclaim "666!"

Let the village lower its guard, then secretly develop its resources and take advantage of the opportunity to steal some resources from the Hokage.

Good guy!

The two sighed helplessly, unsure of what to say.

"Alright, that's about it." Uchiha Jin said seriously, "You guys digest this on your own first."

"I have something to ask Zhishui first."

"Zhi Shui, please explain in more detail."

"Finally, tell me the whole story of your meeting with Hiruzen Sarutobi, word for word."

"Let me analyze this carefully!"

Zhi Shui nodded.

Although he was indeed very tired, after drinking another cup of tea, he forced himself to stay awake, his face becoming very serious, and began to recount the entire process of his meeting with Hiruzen Sarutobi without missing a single word.

Obviously.

Shisui knew very well that he wasn't cut out for it.

So, no problem.

He only needs to be responsible for execution; as for the thinking, that's for the smart people to handle.

Chapter 190 Changing Plans, I'm Going to Force Myself On!

Uchiha Jin fell into thought.

Just as Shisui said, Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed too quickly, which is fundamentally wrong.

His brows furrowed slightly.

While he was deep in thought, the others remained silent.

Yes.

Everyone knows their own limitations; they are not qualified to interfere in matters that require thinking.

Perhaps only if Nara is involved would one be qualified to participate.

Therefore, at this stage.

The biggest help they can give is simply not to disturb you.

"Shisui, what's going on?" Fugaku lowered his voice and asked quietly, "Didn't you firmly believe in the Will of Fire? When did you start hanging out with King?"

"When did you stop believing in the Will of Fire?"

Obviously.

Fugaku didn't understand this at all.

If it were anyone else, it wouldn't matter, but you're Zhishui!

I tried my best to persuade him, but I just couldn't convince this stubborn guy.

Shisui has been completely brainwashed; he has unwavering faith in Hiruzen Sarutobi, his enemy.

Anyone who speaks ill of Hiruzen Sarutobi is Shisui's enemy.

how.

It's only been a few days since I last saw him, how come Zhishui suddenly seems like a completely different person?

Fugaku was very curious about this.

He even wanted to learn from Jin-jun and see what kind of magic he had that allowed him to pull Shisui, who had been completely brainwashed, back to his senses.

He wants to learn!

Otherwise, wouldn't he, as the head of the Uchiha clan, seem a bit too stupid?

He wants to improve too!

Upon hearing this, Shisui's lips twitched.

How did Jin-jun convince himself?

Upon hearing this question, he fell into deep thought.

After a long time.

He shrugged helplessly, shook his head, and spoke.

"Chieftain, you've misunderstood."

“Strictly speaking, Jin-jun did not try to persuade me.”

"He just gave me some questions and asked me to think about the answers myself."

"And when I couldn't answer, he started to explain things to me from multiple angles and in a comprehensive way."

"Rights, humanity, interests, resources..."

"Through Jin's series of questions, I slowly began to understand how one-sided my thinking had been in this real world."

"I oversimplified things. The world is far more complex than I imagined."

"Every human being has desires, including myself."

"But can desire be simply summarized as a 'Will of Fire'?"

"Take myself as an example, my goal has never changed."

“I always hoped that the village and the Uchiha could live in harmony, but through the examples that Jin gave me, I realized that this was just wishful thinking.”

"The Uchiha are not isolated!"

"The sudden collapse of the Senju clan, the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan, the death of Hatake Sakumo..."

"Everything has shown that the tension between the village and the Uchiha is not because the Uchiha did anything wrong."

"Simply because the Uchiha clan is strong enough and has access to enough resources."

"If Hiruzen Sarutobi and other high-ranking officials want to seize Konoha, they must completely eliminate these powerful ninja clans."

"Senju is like this, Uzumaki is like this, and so is Hatake Sakumo."

"The Uchiha are no exception!"

"My goal has always been to protect the Uchiha."
