Chapter 202 The Real Anbu, on the Eve of the Uchiha Coup (1/2)

Under the leadership of Fugaku, the two evaded the surveillance ANBU ninjas and came to Nanga Shrine, the gathering place of the Uchiha clan.

Then, Fugaku took Itachi to the underground secret room.

There were only two bonfires in the basement, reflecting the dim light. Fugaku faced the stone tablet passed down from generation to generation by the Uchiha clan. The stone tablet was engraved with mysterious words.

"Dad, why did you bring me here?" Itachi asked suspiciously.

Fugaku stood firmly in front of the stone monument, with his back to Itachi, and said calmly:

“Only those in the clan who have the Sharingan Eye can read the content on the stone tablet, but they can only understand part of it.

With the Mangekyou Sharingan, you should be able to read more, right, Itachi. "

Itachi was shocked. He had never used a kaleidoscope since he opened his eyes. No one else knew about it except Qianhe.

Fugaku continued: "Itachi, you are my son, how could I not know you.

With your relationship with Shisui, how could you possibly attack him.

He must have been forced to die by the higher-ups, am I right?

After losing your best friend, your strength has changed. With the same three magatama, I can feel the difference in your eye power. "

Itachi calmed down and said, "Do you need me to tell you the content?"

"That's not necessary." Fugaku turned his head, and the scarlet three-magatama Sharingan suddenly changed, forming a strange kaleidoscope.

"Mangekyou Sharingan! Dad actually has one too?!" Itachi's expression changed drastically.

Itachi's mind changed rapidly, this would make things difficult to handle!

How powerful the Mangekyō Sharingan was, Itachi didn't know until he opened it himself that the three Magatama was completely incomparable to the Mangekyō.

Facing Itachi's shock, Fugaku said with emotion: "It was during the Third Ninja War. My friend also saved me at the cost of his life. With blood and tears, the kaleidoscope opened."

Hearing Fugaku's explanation, Itachi's face was filled with uncertainty. After calculation, it has been at least eight years since his father activated the Mangekyō Sharingan. Then his use of the Mangekyō, his strength...

Thinking of this, Itachi's heart sank.

After this calculation, he himself is definitely no match for his father. Although Qianhe also has a kaleidoscope, his father is not that easy to deal with.

In addition, Qianhe also had to deal with Danzo, so the difficulty suddenly increased.

Fugaku didn't pay attention to Itachi's expression. He turned around and said to himself:

"This stone tablet records the path of salvation for the Uchiha clan, but even with the Mangekyō Sharingan, there is no way to read the text behind it. It seems that we can go further.

But even if it's only part of it, once you understand it, you can understand that Uchiha is on the wrong path.

We want power, we want control..."

"Then you can't try to use force to overthrow the rule of the village. Doesn't dad know how much disaster this will bring to Konoha?!" Itachi said with excitement on his face.

"The higher-ups in the village are afraid of us, so they persecute us." Fugaku's face was gloomy, "They are afraid of the power of the Sharingan. The Sharingan can control the Nine-Tails. That is the legend about Uchiha Madara.

No one had done anything like this since him.

Just because of this ridiculous reason whether we can do it or not, the higher-ups continue to isolate and persecute us Uchiha clan.

Since we are so afraid, then we will take power ourselves. After taking power, I will prove that the Uchiha clan has never thought of destroying the village.

Only in this way will everyone understand the Uchiha clan. "

"Dad, do you want to become Hokage with force?" Itachi felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, and he felt that Fugaku was right.

It would be a good idea for Uchiha to take power and prove himself later.

But Itachi believed in Fugaku, but he couldn't trust other members of the Uchiha clan, whose ambitions were undisguised.

What's more, the method of taking power by force is bound to cause chaos in Konoha.

"Itachi, this is the wish of the clan, and I can't stop everyone. If I were not the clan leader, I might be able to make my own choice and choose to stand with you.

But as the leader of the clan, I have to do it for the whole clan. Now that most of the clan members have chosen me, I have no choice!

But in order to avoid using force, I hid the fact that I had a kaleidoscope.

Because only in this way can our tribe realize our lack of strength.

However, the village is willing to give us even a little power. If we are far away from the political center of the village, then the Uchiha clan will never have any hope of competing for the position of Hokage.

Even if there is little hope, as long as there is hope, the tribe will not reach this stage.

Konoha's top brass are hopelessly narrow-minded.

If the fourth generation is still alive, it will be a different scene. "

After hearing what Fugaku said, Itachi fell silent. Looking back, his father had never stood firmly on the side of the radicals. He had always tried his best to ease the conflict between the village and his family.

Fugaku's words reminded Itachi of Qianhe's previous words. They were too true. Problems at the top were the root of the conflict. Thinking of this, Itachi no longer hesitated at this moment.

"Itachi, the Mangekyō Sharingan can control the Nine-Tails. This is a fact! Once the clan members know about it, they will do terrible things."

With that said, Fugaku reopened the kaleidoscope. The moment he looked at Itachi, Itachi fell under his illusion before he could react.

Itachi only felt that the scene changed, and he appeared at home from the perspective of a bystander.

There was a rush of footsteps, and several Uchiha tribesmen kidnapped Uzumaki Naruto and threw him in front of Fugaku.

"Clan leader! We have captured the Jinchuriki! Release the Nine-Tails quickly! Let the higher-ups see the true power of our Uchiha clan!"

Facing the fanatical tribesmen, Fugaku bowed his head and remained silent. However, as the number of tribesmen increased, Fugaku finally had no choice but to agree.

Because the jinchūriki have been kidnapped and must have been discovered by the village, the deal is already done and there is no way out now.

Finally, Fugaku used the power of the Mangekyo to release the Nine-Tails from Naruto's body.

boom!

boom!

boom!

A huge nine-tailed demon fox appeared in the center of the village, constantly destroying the village and harvesting human lives.

Suddenly, Konoha returned to the Nine-Tails Rebellion eight years ago, but this time Konoha did not have the Fourth Hokage to turn the tide, but there was civil strife in the Uchiha clan.

After this battle, most of Konoha was destroyed. Uchiha defeated the top leaders, but then entered a big melee.

The illusion came to an abrupt end during the fighting. Itachi felt cold all over and was sweating profusely!

"how so!?"

Fugaku said coldly: "Many people in the clan are resentful of the village, especially the higher-ups. This will happen sooner or later.

So I never dared to expose Kaleidoscope, just because I didn’t want to give hope to my tribe.

Although Uzumaki Naruto is a Jinchuuriki, he is the fourth generation's child, and the fourth generation is my friend. I don't want to do anything to his child.

But many times, as the clan leader, I had no choice. Not only did the clan members not give me a chance to choose, but even the village refused to give in, instead pressing harder and harder.

During the Nine-Tails Rebellion eight years ago, the Uchiha clan was the ninja clan of Konoha. We wanted to join the fight and help the fourth generation deal with the Nine-Tails.

If Danzo had not given the order to stop the Uchiha clan, I would have definitely been able to subdue the Kyuubi and save the Yondaime couple using the kaleidoscope, so that the tragedy of that year would not have happened.

If the fourth generation were alive, they would never treat us Uchiha clan like this.

The third generation was afraid of the power of the Uchiha clan, while Danzo coveted the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.

During the three battles, this old dog took advantage of the chaos to collect the Sharingan of the clan members. If it weren't for the unity of the village, I would have taken action against him! "

"I..." Listening to Fugaku's sincere words, Itachi realized at this moment how difficult it was for his father. His father was different from other tribesmen.

However, sometimes the clan leader can only listen to the clan members.

"Itachi, the Uchiha clan's current coup outcome is almost impossible to change. The clan members no longer have hope for the village, and so do I.

Unless the top management of the village is changed, under such a policy, the Uchiha clan will be wiped out by Konoha sooner or later.

Taking the initiative is the only option. Of course, the possibility of losing both sides is the greatest.

But Itachi, my son, as long as I have your help, I can take the opportunity to control the higher-ups. Although small-scale battles are inevitable, casualties can be minimized in this way.

A bloodless revolution can succeed! Please! Itachi! "

"Bloodless...revolution." Itachi's heart was full of entanglement and panic at this time.

But when he thought of Qian He, he regained some composure.

Because of Fugaku's true feelings, Itachi truly realized that the higher-ups really couldn't believe it, but he still couldn't choose to deal with the higher-ups with his family.

The extreme Uchiha tribe still makes up the majority. It is conceivable that once the bloodless revolution succeeds, civil strife in the village is inevitable. By then, the tribe will swell due to the success of the coup, and even if his father becomes the Hokage, he will still be unable to change Konoha. About to fall into the chaos of war.

Itachi, who has been on the battlefield since he was four years old, understands how cruel war is.

Konoha is not the only village in this ninja world. Konoha is still at the center of the ninja world. If there is any disturbance, the war in the ninja world may start again, and I don't know how many people will die by then.

"Father, even if the bloodless revolution succeeds, can you guarantee that the village will not fall into civil strife? Can you guarantee that you will not do other things that harm the village because of the promotion of your tribe?"

"This..." Facing Itachi's inquiry, Fugaku fell silent. He had confessed everything, but he could not answer Itachi's question.

He can choose to seize power by force because of the encouragement of his tribe, and he will naturally do more extreme things because of his tribe.

If it were anyone else, he would have coaxed him first, but when it came to his eldest son, the son he was most proud of in his life, Fugaku didn't want to lie to him.

Fugaku looked at Itachi with a bit of expectation, desire, and even prayer.

Because he knew that once Itachi chose the high-level side, the possibility of father and son facing off was extremely high.

Fugaku was unwilling to kill each other with his own son.

Even if Itachi also has a kaleidoscope, Fugaku knows that Itachi will not be his opponent, but the danger at the top lies here.

Itachi lowered his head and was silent for a long time. Finally he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Dad, I can't help you deal with the higher-ups!

Because there is no way to guarantee that civil unrest will not occur after a coup. "

Fugaku's face was full of loneliness and desolation, but he did not complain or get angry. Instead, he looked at Itachi with a touch of emotion and said:

"You are such a kind-hearted child. You consider the interests of the majority of people in everything you do, and your vision is not limited to the family.

If you are not a descendant of the Uchiha clan, or if the village does not target Uchiha in this way, you are really more suitable to be Hokage than anyone else, Itachi. "

Facing his father's understanding, Itachi looked ashamed and said: "Father, if the top management of Konoha can lift the surveillance of Uchiha, and gradually give Uchiha certain powers.

So can the Uchiha clan show enough sincerity to make the village believe in the Uchiha clan?

For example, give up the coup, actively communicate with the village, and eliminate the prejudices of senior officials and villagers. "

Fugaku laughed at himself and said: "If the top management of Konoha can really do this, then the Uchiha clan can naturally do it. In fact, when the Fourth Hokage was in power, several elders and I had this plan, but it turned out later. You saw it too.

It's not easy to get the village's top management to do this. "

"Father, I will not stand on the side of Uchiha, nor on the side of the village, but I will help the Uchiha clan and the village. I hope you can believe me!"

With that said, Itachi turned around and left.

Once he made up his mind, Itachi turned around, his eyes filled with sadness.

Once he succeeds, he will no longer be qualified to side with his family and the village. He can't stand on either side, but Itachi has no regrets.

The real ANBU of Konoha are the unsung heroes who hide in the shadows and make selfless sacrifices for the peace of the village, even if they suffer infamy or die in humiliation.

Itachi's words stunned Fugaku, and then he couldn't help shouting: "Itachi, in five days, the family will hold a meeting, and that night will be the family's coup, and I can no longer stop the clan members.

I will wait for you at the rally that day, always waiting for you! "

Itachi didn't speak, but his departure steps became heavier.

"My son, I hope we don't kill each other. If that happens, what will Sasuke do..." Fugaku sighed faintly.

...

After Itachi left Nanga Shrine, he escaped from the monitoring ANBU and came to a dense forest.

Then, he took out a special trident-shaped kunai and poured chakra into it.

brush!

Within a minute, Qianhe received Itachi's notification and directly used the Flying Thunder God Technique to come to Itachi's side.

"Qianhe, I..."

"etc!"

Just as Itachi was about to speak, Qianhe interrupted him, then closed his eyes and opened Kagura's inner eye.

"Let's change places." After saying that, Qianhe directly took Itachi's hand, and the two of them disappeared at the same time.

The next second, the two appeared outside Konoha.

"It's okay to say it." Qian He nodded.

Regarding Qianhe's prudent calmness, Itachi was sure that it was precisely because Qianhe had great strength but was still so steady that he could gain his trust and reliance.

Itachi said softly: "Qianhe, my father just talked to me. He told me that the Uchiha clan decided to have a coup in five days. In addition, I discovered that he actually possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan.

This will make it more difficult for our plan to succeed. What should we do? "

Hearing this, Qian He smiled lightly and said, "Kaleidoscope? Is this what you are talking about?"

As he spoke, Qian He's dark eyes changed instantly. The black irises in his eyes turned scarlet, and a black curved four-cornered dart pattern appeared in the center of the pupil.

"Mangekyo Sharingan? You have one too!!! What's going on?"

Itachi felt that there were too many shocks and surprises tonight.
