After watching Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo leave, Chiba used the instant body movement technique to disappear from the spot.

Uchiha Itachi was still leaning on a big rock in the woods not far from the Nanga Shrine, waiting for Uchiha Shisui.

Suddenly a few leaves fell from the branches.

Uchiha Itachi raised his head and looked upward: "Shisui?"

Uchiha Shisui's tired and hoarse voice came: "Follow me!"

Uchiha Itachi took off his mask, his expression was somewhat solemn, and he smelled a smell of blood.

Uchiha Itachi followed Uchiha Shisui to the cliff of Minamiga River.

Uchiha Itachi saw the injuries on Uchiha Shisui's body, frowned and asked: "What happened?"

Uchiha Shisui turned his back to Uchiha Itachi and said, "The Uchiha coup can no longer be stopped. Once Konoha starts a civil war, other countries will definitely take advantage of the situation and invade. War is inevitable. I wanted to use Kotoamatsukami to stop the coup, but Danzo took my right eye away."

Uchiha Shisui turned to look at Uchiha Itachi: "He doesn't believe me and insists on protecting the village in his own way. I'm afraid he won't let go of my left eye."

When Uchiha Itachi saw Uchiha Shisui's bleeding right eye socket, his pupils shrank.

Uchiha Shisui continued, "The Sandaime talked to me before and there is a most feasible way to prevent the coup and integrate the Uchiha clan into Konoha.

That is to let the Uchiha clan members accept the curse and accept the constraints. Although there will definitely be some clan members who are unwilling to do so, as long as they are led by Fugaku, there will definitely be some clan members willing to accept it. The Third Hokage will improve the lives of those clan members who are bound by the curse, and then slowly let other clan members gradually accept the constraints of the curse.

This will make Konoha trust the Uchiha clan and no longer be suspicious of the Uchiha clan. After both sides trust each other again, the Sandaime promised me that he would lift the curse.

This plan seems to be the only feasible one at the moment, but now I have no way to stop the change. "

When Uchiha Itachi heard Uchiha Shisui's words, his expression changed.

Because Chiyu had just told him that the only way to resolve the conflict was for the Uchiha clan to serve Konoha as dogs. Only when they became completely slaves, and Sarutobi Hiruzen and others could have the power of life and death over them at will, could Konoha be at ease with the Uchiha clan.

Isn't accepting the curse and being restricted what Qianyu meant by making the Uchiha clan slaves?

Although Chiba is certain that he will not succeed, with Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami around to control Uchiha Fugaku's consciousness, there will definitely be a part of the clan members who will follow Uchiha Fugaku's lead and agree.

Then, step by step, with enough time, the remaining members of the tribe will surely accept it slowly when they see that the lives of those who have accepted the curse have improved.

But...is it possible to coexist peacefully with Konoha only by becoming a slave?

Uchiha Shisui sighed and said, "I know you may not be able to accept this after hearing it now, but after all, it is our Uchiha clan that made the mistake first. Now we want to launch a coup and want to regain the trust of the Sandaime. How can it be possible without a price?"

Uchiha Itachi was silent for a while, and said in a daze: "Shisui, but... it seems that we are the ones who have been oppressed all along. Maybe there are other ways..."

Uchiha Shisui shook his head and said, "Itachi, our clan members are too arrogant. The Uchiha clan is part of Konoha, and we cannot do anything to let Konoha down. Even if this village has many shortcomings, we are Konoha's ninjas, and only then are members of the Uchiha clan!

Itachi, you are the only one I can trust now. I entrust this eye to you. I can only ask you, my dear friend, to protect the village and the Uchiha name. "

Uchiha Shisui smiled, dug out his left eye, and opened his palm.

A crow flew to Uchiha Shisui's palm, turned into black feathers and spread out, and its left eye disappeared in Uchiha Shisui's palm.

Uchiha Itachi's confused look gradually became firm: "I understand, Shisui, I will protect the village and the Uchiha name! I accept it, so what are you going to do next?"

Uchiha Shisui stepped back step by step: "If I die, the situation should change. The suicide note has been left behind."

Uchiha Itachi saw Uchiha Shisui retreating and suddenly became very panicked: "Wait, Shisui!"

"Don't stop me, Itachi, if you...are still my friend."

Uchiha Shisui leaned back and fell off the cliff.

Uchiha Itachi failed to grab Uchiha Shisui's arm and fell into the fast-flowing river below the cliff.

"Shisui..."

Uchiha Itachi closed his eyes and shed two lines of blood and tears. When he opened his eyes again, Uchiha Itachi's eyes had turned into Mangekyō Sharingan.

...

Two days later, the news of Uchiha Shisui's death had caused a sensation within the clan.

Uchiha Itachi was walking silently towards his home when several Uchiha clan members blocked his way.

"Uchiha Itachi! You were the one who did what happened to Shisui!"

"You and Shisui were the only ones who didn't attend the gathering that day!"

"You were the one who killed Shisui!"

Uchiha Itachi looked expressionlessly at the Uchiha clan members who blocked his way and said in a cold tone: "It wasn't me who did it."

"Since you didn't do it, then tell me why you didn't come to the rally that day!"

Uchiha Itachi said "confidential mission" and left.

Those Uchiha clan members gnashed their teeth and watched Uchiha Itachi's departing back, as if they wished they could eat him alive.

And inside the root base.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo, who was lying on the bed with his right hand in a cast and his right eye bandaged, and reprimanded: "Danzo, you've gone too far this time!"

Danzo said in a hoarse voice, "I am also doing this for Konoha. Uchiha Shisui is a member of the Uchiha clan. What if he is a spy sent by the Uchiha clan to get information about us?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen scolded: "Don't be prejudiced against Shisui just because he is an Uchiha. He is the same as Kagami, both are Konoha ninjas who have accepted the Will of Fire! Now because of your unauthorized actions, the plan has failed, and Shisui is dead!"

Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with his left eye and said in shock: "Uchiha Shisui is dead?!"

"That's right! He committed suicide and left a suicide note."

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with sharp eyes: "Danzo, tell me, is the eye of Shisui that you stole in Chiba's hands now?"

Danzo paused for a moment, thinking of the scene where Chiyu crushed the Mangekyō Sharingan, and his expression instantly became extremely ferocious, but he still answered truthfully:

"I only took away Uchiha Shisui's right eye, but that eye was destroyed by Chiba."
