Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too tsundere

This kind of power...

Shisui's Sharingan spun wildly, trying to analyze the illogical scene before him. But just as the repair was about to be completed, Menma suddenly stopped.

"It's not time to reveal my abilities yet..." He gazed at the two unconscious figures, silently thinking, "I'm sorry, I can't fully heal you right now. Once this is all over, I will definitely restore you to your former state."

In the end, although Fugaku and Mikoto's breathing was weak, they survived. A faint color returned to their pale faces, proving that this astonishing miracle of life had indeed occurred.

"You...you really saved them."

Shisui's voice trembled slightly. He gazed at the Fugaku couple on the ground, their breathing gradually stabilizing, and thought of how hopeful and gentle their abilities were—their capacity to heal wounds and give life.

Through the holes in the mask, Shisui vaguely caught a glimpse of the emotion flashing in Menma's eyes. Was it guilt? Why? He was the one who had snatched these two lives from the clutches of death, so why did he show such a look in his eyes?

"Alright, Shisui." Menma suddenly turned around. "It's time to go. Our mission isn't finished yet."

"A mission?" Shisui paused, "Is there anything else needed...?"

The words stopped abruptly.

This time, he saw it clearly—beneath the mask, in that barely visible eye, surged an undisguised, chilling killing intent. This caused Shisui to involuntarily tense up.

"The rats at the roots...have eked out a living in the shadows for far too long."

A crow's caw echoed in the distance, and moonlight shone on the fox mask, casting a chilling gleam. "This time, for the Sharingan, that old dog will definitely crawl out of his rat hole himself."

"【The Darkness of Ninja】Shimura Danzo—"

As the last syllable faded, Shisui seemed to see countless wronged souls wailing behind Menma. Those Sharingan that had been gouged out, those innocent victims who had been sacrificed, and... Shisui's own right eye that had been taken from him.

"It's time to let his rotten ambitions and his pathetic era—"

"They were buried together."

Chapter 84 The Third Hokage, waiting to be defended

The lights in the Hokage Building remained bright even in the night. The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, ate a few bites of dinner hastily before heading back to his office to work on documents—he hadn't had much of an appetite lately.

He sighed. The Hokage's workload was still heavy, but what exhausted him more than his physical fatigue was the troublesome matter concerning the Uchiha clan.

Not long ago, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, members of Konoha's Anbu, brought unsettling news: someone within the Uchiha clan was planning to use the close relationship between Sasuke and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to lure Naruto to the Uchiha clan's territory, attempting to control the Nine-Tails and launch a coup.

Although it was still in the planning stage, the news had already kept the Third Hokage awake at night. Through his telescope technique, he witnessed firsthand the deepening bond between Naruto and Sasuke.

If we forcibly separate them now... that child who finally developed a sense of belonging to Konoha will probably turn back into the lonely "demon fox" he used to be.

Just as he was caught in a dilemma, Shisui made a surprising suggestion—he revealed his Mangekyou Sharingan's eye technique, "Kotoamatsukami," the strongest genjutsu that can silently change the will of others.

To subtly change one's will...?

The Third Hokage could hardly believe his ears. He knew all too well what this ability meant. But in the end, his indecisive nature prevailed.

He convinced himself by saying that "Shisui is a descendant of Uchiha Kagami" and agreed to Shisui's plan, allowing him to revise the hawks' will at the clan meeting.

However...

On the day of the operation, Shisui mysteriously disappeared. He was nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead. The Third Hokage had a vague idea of ​​what was going on—his old friend, Shimura Danzo, had probably already made his move against Shisui.

How should we deal with the Danzang (a type of Buddhist monastery)?

The Third Hokage was caught in a deep dilemma. Konoha couldn't be without its "roots," and even though Danzo had plotted to assassinate him, he ultimately chose to forgive him...

The Third Hokage pushed open the office door, but what he saw instantly made him tense. In the dimly lit room, the Hokage chair, which should have been empty, was now occupied by a chilling figure.

"You're back, Third Hokage."

The hoarse voice sounded particularly jarring in the darkness. By the moonlight filtering through the window, Hiruzen Sarutobi made out the signature attire—a long, black robe and a strange fox mask.

The leader of [Jin]... Menma!

The man before me, who once single-handedly defeated the Cloud Village delegation and severely injured the Fourth Raikage to the brink of death, is a terrifying figure with the power to destroy the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Of course, this is just a shadow clone.

"Lord Menma..." the Third Hokage's voice remained remarkably calm, "I believe Konoha has not had any diplomatic dealings with your organization recently. If a messenger were sent in advance to inform you, Konoha would be happy to receive [Jin] on a formal visit."

Although the words were polite, the subtext was all too clear—did you come here as a guest or as an intruder?

Mianma suddenly chuckled. "Don't be nervous, old man." He casually flicked his wrist. "I'm not the kind of madman who indiscriminately kills innocent people. I'm here... to help you out."

"help?"

"The commotion your old friend caused..." Menma tapped the armrest lightly with his fingertips, "was a bit too much. Thanks to him, the Uchiha clan... was wiped out tonight. Since you can't bear to see it happen, then I'll help you cut off the roots of Konoha's decay."

The third generation's body visibly stiffened for a moment.

"I can explain the whole story to you here... but on one condition—you're not allowed to go anywhere. Until everything is over..."

A cruel smile curled at the corners of his mouth beneath the mask.

"...then you can go and collect your old friend's body."

------

Menma walked slowly along the forest path, moonlight filtering through the leaves and dappling the glass jar in his hand. Inside, a pair of scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan eyes floated in the nutrient solution.

This thing... is actually thanks to Shisui's reminder.

He gently shook the jar, his eyes slowly moving in response. If it weren't for Shisui's suggestion, he might have truly overlooked this detail—Uchiha Itachi, if she knew that Fugaku hadn't perished under Amaterasu, might worry that her father's Mangekyou Sharingan could become a variable in the plan, and thus turn back to silence him.

Just to be on the safe side...

Menma had already used her Gold Experience ability to reshape Fugaku's eyes into ordinary ones. After that, she would warn Itachi Uchiha, and he probably wouldn't harm his parents anymore.

A night breeze rustled the leaves. Mianma's thoughts drifted to distant places.

Actually... letting Itachi's plan continue would be more advantageous to me.

According to the original plan, if he directly killed the Uchiha hawks under the identity of "Menma," there would be only two possible outcomes—either Satsuki would hate him to the core for his identity, or the entire Uchiha clan would be branded as "traitors."

Since Itachi Uchiha is determined to carry out the plan to exterminate the clan... you'll have to take the blame for this.

Fortunately, the [Jin] organization is currently lacking reliable combat power. The Uchiha clan members who were rescued, whether out of gratitude or disappointment with Konoha, are highly likely to become fresh blood for the organization. Shisui, as a genius of the Uchiha clan and a former member of the Hokage's direct ANBU, wields considerable influence within the clan. With him stepping in to appease them, persuading clan members to join shouldn't be difficult.

Hopefully, Shisui can keep them calm...

Mianma stopped and looked up at the night sky. The stars twinkled, and the moonlight was like water.

I'm sorry, Chief Fugaku... I'll borrow these eyes for now.

I will achieve true peace... So, Satsuki's childhood, which should have been lonely...

I'm asking you to keep her company.

(Sorry... I only updated once this morning, and three times this afternoon. I'm too sleepy to write anymore tonight.)

Chapter 85 Reclaiming the Eyes

The moonlight, like water, spilled across the clearing in the woods. Mianma stopped and looked around—the terrain was open and the trees were sparse, making it the perfect place in the vicinity to settle old scores.

He glanced sideways at Shisui beside him. "It's up to you now. Don't move around, everything will be alright."

Shisui frowned slightly. He vaguely guessed Menma's intention—he was probably going to be used as bait. But he didn't understand, what value did he still have that could attract Danzo?

Having lost her right eye, her fighting ability has been greatly reduced; she should be completely useless to that man now...

As his thoughts churned, a complex emotion welled up in Shisui's heart. The fact that Menma was about to attack Danzo left him with neither the satisfaction of revenge nor the urge to stop him.

Even though Danzo took his eyes and forced him to jump off a cliff to commit suicide, he felt no hatred, only deep sorrow and disappointment.

As geniuses of the Uchiha clan and ninjas of Konoha, the Uchiha's attack on the higher-ups was tantamount to the beginning of a civil war.

But the surface texture is different.

This man was unconstrained by any principles; he simply wanted to eliminate Danzo. And I... was I already destined to become an accomplice?

A night breeze stirred, causing Shisui's black hair to sway slightly. From this night forward, he would no longer be Uchiha Shisui of Konoha, but a rogue ninja who had betrayed the village. This realization weighed heavily on his chest, yet he felt a strange sense of relief.

Menma paid no attention to Shisui's myriad thoughts. He raised his hand and gently touched the empty hole in Shisui's right eye with his fingertips—it was still pitch black, unlike his left eye, which had been re-installed with the three-tomoe Sharingan.

"【Crazy Diamonds】."

With a whisper, a deep blue Stand appeared in the moonlight. The ability to restore itself activated suddenly, and strange fluctuations rippled through the forest surrounding Konoha.

A reaction that defies common sense is quietly unfolding not far away.

------

On the stone-paved road of the Uchiha clan compound, the voice behind the Root ninja mask carried a hint of hesitation. "Lord Danzo, the number of bodies has been counted, and they all match... but..."

"but what?"

"The eye sockets of all the remains... were empty."

Danzo's brows furrowed instantly, the lines so deep they could almost trap a fly. He slammed his cane into the ground. His Sharingan—those treasures he had always dreamed of—had all vanished without a trace?

Could it be that bastard Itachi...?

A sinister glint flashed in his single eye beneath the bandages. He had thought he could kill two birds with one stone tonight: eliminate the Uchiha threat and gain a large number of Sharingan. But now...

"Keep searching! Dissect every body and examine it!" Danzo's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. "There must be someone—"

Before he could finish speaking, a strange tremor suddenly came from his right eye socket. His Mangekyou Sharingan, which he considered his greatest trump card—the eye he had taken from Shisui—began to twitch violently!

"Well!"

A wave of excruciating pain washed over him, forcing Danzo to cover his right eye. The next second, something even more terrifying happened—

"Pfft!"

With a sticky sound, the precious Mangekyou Sharingan miraculously broke free of its socket! The bandages were soaked with blood, and the crimson eyeball, as if alive, emerged from the gaps in the bandages.

"Lord Danzo!"

The two Root ninjas stared in astonishment at Danzo, who suddenly hunched over, his voice, unusually panicked, beneath his mask. Then, they witnessed a bizarre sight they would never forget.

A scarlet eyeball slowly emerged from the gap in Danzo's blood-stained bandages, clinging to nerves and blood vessels, and floated in the air as if pulled by invisible threads.

The patterns on that Mangekyou Sharingan looked eerily strange under the moonlight, and then it suddenly accelerated and flew into the distance!

Danzo looked up, his remaining left eye wide open to its limit. He had lived most of his life and had never witnessed such an absurd scene—his eyeball had detached itself?!

What kind of evil spell is this? Who is controlling it?

But now is not the time to think!

"Never mind me!" Danzo ripped off the blood-stained bandage, revealing a hollow, bleeding eye socket. "Quickly, catch up with that eye!"

On the other side of the forest, Menma's spiritual power suddenly erupted. Invisible chains gripped the speeding eyeball tightly. The Mangekyou Sharingan left a crimson afterimage in the air, moving at an unbelievable speed.

"Swish! Swish!"

Danzo, accompanied by two trusted confidants, leaped wildly among the treetops. The old man's heart pounded like a drum, and his ominous premonition grew stronger.

The kaleidoscope suddenly detaching from the body... is very likely a trap to lure the enemy!

Even knowing it might be a trap, he had to jump in. The value of Kotoamatsukami was simply too high! It wasn't just about the safety of Konoha; it was his ultimate trump card for becoming Hokage!

"Speed ​​up again! We absolutely cannot let—"

The words stopped abruptly.

As the three rushed out of the last clump of trees, the moonlight suddenly shone brightly. In the center of the clearing ahead, a figure in black robes wearing a fox mask stood silently, and the Mangekyou Sharingan that had flown away was now hovering in his palm.

"Good evening, Elder Shimura... You've finally arrived."

Menma's voice slowly echoed in the night. His gaze beneath the fox mask was icy and piercing. The Mangekyou Sharingan floating in his palm was still dripping blood, its scarlet pupil reflecting Danzo's distorted face.

The air solidified instantly.

The murderous intent swept across the open space like a storm, even the moonlight seemed to be stained with blood.

"Whoosh—!"

Suddenly, the ground on both sides of the open space lit up with dazzling purple runes. The sealing techniques of the Southern Dipper Sage and the Northern Dipper Sage were activated simultaneously, and the runes moved across the ground like living things, instantly weaving into a huge barrier array.
