Chapter 59 Investigation Plan
"Ding!"
"Sign in successfully!"
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining [Immortal Body] experience value of 0.25%, chakra increase of 0.05%, and money 5105 taels!"
This time, I checked in casually by the roadside and did not get any special rewards.
Changfeng just glanced at it, then hurriedly turned off the system panel, and glanced back at Yueguang Fleet, then flashed and disappeared under the street light.
...
On the roof of a high-rise building somewhere in the center of Konoha Village, Uchiha Shisui stood there with his arms crossed, like a wooden sculpture, letting the evening wind blow his clothes.
He had been standing like this for nearly half an hour.
"Weasel."
Sensing that someone was approaching quickly, he spoke indifferently.
"The weather is getting colder... Brother Zhishui."
Uchiha Itachi appeared one meter behind Shishui, and following the latter's gaze, the Konoha Village under the night was extraordinarily peaceful.
But under this calm appearance, there is a turbulent undercurrent, and it may turn up a stormy sea at any time.
"Yeah, winter is coming soon."
Shishui said, suddenly turned around and looked at the young Itachi.
"You've improved a lot recently..."
When the voice fell, he suddenly shot and grabbed Chao Itachi.
The latter raised his eyebrows and jumped backwards. At the same time, three shurikens were already in his hands, and they flew towards Zhishui like a shooting star.
"Ding Ding Ding-"
Zhishui swept the short sword in his hand, and while blocking the three shuriken, he drew a wisp of chakra sword energy along the way.
"Art fire escape ho fireball!"
Not to be outdone, Itachi quickly formed a seal with his hands and spit out a huge fireball.
There was a muffled sound of "Boom", the strong firelight collided with the Chakra sword energy, and the two fell into the distance.
When landing, Zhishui's footsteps staggered slightly.
He was slightly stunned, Itachi's strength was indeed improving rapidly, and the power of Hao Fireball was much stronger than a month ago.
"As expected of a new talent."
Shishui returned the knife to its sheath with a bang, and walked towards Itachi. At the same time, he took out a notebook and threw it at the other party.
"This is……?"
Itachi glanced at Shishui's body, reached out to take the notebook, and looked at each other suspiciously.
"My practice notes."
"Hopefully it helped you."
"Cultivation notes...Thank you."
Itachi opened the note and glanced at it. On the home page, the first thing that caught his eye was a few big words - "Interpretation and insights of 'Will of Fire'".
He carefully closed the notebook again and put it in his ninja bag, planning to find another time to study and study slowly.
"Speaking of which, Big Brother Zhishui, do you seem to have something on your mind?"
The keen Itachi had already noticed the abnormality when Shishui just landed.
With the opponent's strength, it is impossible to fight with oneself and almost fall down. Intuition tells Itachi that Zhishui is injured!
"Ah, there is one thing that really confuses me."
"Have you found out recently that any of the clan's behavior is not right?"
Shisui avoided talking about his injuries, and responded to Itachi's words as if nothing had happened.
"Why ask that?"
"There is evidence that it was a mysterious powerhouse of our Uchiha clan who defeated the Yunyin troops."
"Mysterious powerhouse? Is it Father Father or Uncle Xintian?"
When it comes to the word "strong", Itachi first thinks of Uchiha Shisui in front of him, followed by his father Uchiha Fugaku, and his uncle Uchiha Nobuta.
Then, there are other Uchiha executives.
They are the members of the currently known Uchiha clan, whose strength is in the first echelon.
"No, I'm not talking about them."
"This man has been hiding his strength, and I need to find him now."
"Because the high-level officials have already learned such information, they believe that Uchiha deliberately concealed his strength, which is an act with ulterior motives."
"If we can't investigate clearly and properly solve this problem, there will inevitably be more rifts between the Uchiha clan and the higher-ups..."
Hearing Shishui say that, Itachi frowned immediately.
What he is most worried about now is the Uchiha family, and the conflict with the village is deepening.
Whenever he thinks about this, it makes him feel annoyed.
Even, occasionally, some behaviors of the Uchiha clan people feel incomprehensible and unacceptable.
Itachi believes that everyone should not choose to oppose the village, but should have an attitude of understanding, tolerance and benevolence, communicate with the village attentively, and obey the leadership and instructions of the high-level...
If the clansmen could obey the orders, maybe Uchiha wouldn't have the troubles he has now.
"Does Brother Zhishui have any clues?"
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
After taking a deep breath, he asked.
"The people who followed Mr. Fuyue to the battlefield that day were all the main force of our Uchiha clan, and each of them was above the strength of Chunin."
"This group of people can basically be excluded."
"The rest are the clansmen who didn't go to the battlefield that day..."
Shishui said, stating all his speculations and judgments.
Simply put, it is to first use the exclusion method to exclude most of the clansmen.
In this way, the remaining clansmen will have the opportunity to go to the battlefield to attack the Yunyin troops without anyone else noticing.
"To be honest, Itachi, if I didn't know your strength, the first thing I would suspect would be you."
Shishui's tone was serious, and his eyes were fixed on Itachi when he said this.
"What? Big Brother Zhishui, you..."
"Don't worry, I know that person will never be you."
"Although this can eliminate almost 200 people, there are still many remaining clansmen..."
Itachi breathed a sigh of relief and calculated silently in his heart.
Aside from the clansmen who have been excluded from suspicion, there are at least nearly 300 clansmen to investigate, which is not an easy job.
"I know, that's why I came to you for help."
"It saves a lot of time when two people act together."
"Itachi, how about you and I are responsible for half of the remaining clansmen? Investigate their details as soon as possible, even if they are ordinary clansmen who cannot cultivate and are not ninjas, don't let them go."
"For now, this is the only way to find that guy."
"Since the other party can always hide his strength and has never been discovered, it shows that he is very vigilant."
"I'm also curious now, who is this guy, who is deliberately hiding his strength, and what is his purpose..."
Shishui arranged the plan, Itachi nodded, saying that he had no opinion, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.
That damn intuition came to his mind again.
I always feel that this mysterious powerhouse hidden in the clan has hidden ulterior motives, which makes people feel uneasy...
"Let's do it now, Itachi."
"Let's start with the outermost, the most inconspicuous clansmen. This part of the people is the most suspect."
"Hmm."
The two turned around at the same time, facing away from each other.
Under the moonlit night, two figures flashed past in different directions.
