Inside the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat wearily in his Hokage seat.
Tonight, he was completely unable to sleep.
During the day, he had been running around and giving speeches everywhere because of the Jinchuriki issue, which barely suppressed the village's complaints about Naruto.
He was about to fall asleep at night when Uchiha Shisui dragged his old bones out of bed again.
Although he had long suspected the Uchiha Clan of plotting a coup, he didn't expect the Uchiha Clan to actually dare to revolt. Did the Uchiha Clan really want to disregard the safety of the village?
If the Uchiha Clan really launched a rebellion, the other four Ninja Villages would definitely not sit idly by and would look for opportunities to attack Konoha. At that time, the Fourth Shinobi World War would also break out.
Now, in the village, first, Konoha White Fang committed suicide, Tsunade left Konoha due to a mental illness, Jiraiya was traveling abroad for a vague prophecy, the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze sacrificed himself to seal the Nine Tails, and finally, even his favorite disciple Orochimaru had become a rogue Ninja.
Having experienced so many things, Konoha was no longer the Strongest Ninja Village that could challenge the four major Ninja Villages with the strength of one village.
Having lost a large number of middle-level forces, the village also began to experience a shortage of successors. Konoha really had no way to go through another War.
He could only strike first.
Uchiha Clan, is it really a naturally evil clan as Tobirama-sensei said?
Just like Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan...
As soon as he thought of Uchiha Shisui telling him about his Mangekyo Sharingan's ability in front of him at that time, his heart almost jumped out.
Kotoamatsukami, can directly invade the other party's brain without being noticed by anyone, and permanently and completely modify the other party's will.
Doesn't that mean that Uchiha Shisui can turn the other party into his puppet without anyone noticing?
Such a dangerous ability...
As soon as he thought of his past conversations and laughter with the other party, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
He... shouldn't have been affected, right?
Sarutobi Hiruzen spat out a puff of white smoke expressionlessly, but the fear in his eyes deepened a bit.
Shisui, I very much approve of your Will of Fire.
However, this power is too dangerous in the hands of the Uchiha.
"Someone!"
"Quickly summon Elder Danzo to the Hokage office to discuss matters!"
——
"Hmm?"
Naruto also landed directly at the position where Uchiha Shisui was before, but he didn't find any traces of anyone landing here. However, the slight malice was constantly changing positions around him.
Body Flicker Technique?
It didn't make the slightest sound, but the speed of changing positions made it difficult for him to capture. The level of Body Flicker Technique was quite high.
It seems to be Uchiha Shisui.
He'll just play with him.
It has to be said that opening the Mangekyo Sharingan really makes one swell with pride.
Naruto directly dispelled the Invisibility Release, and his transformed appearance appeared out of thin air.
He had a tall, sturdy, yet extremely agile physique, wearing a robe made of white linen, with a hood at the back covering his head. The shadow of the hood concealed all but half of his face. He also wore a leather corset and leggings, with various small tools and weapons hanging on these pieces of equipment, plus special leather gloves and boots, making his appearance out of sync with the Shinobi World.
From the beginning, Uchiha Shisui had been circling him, looking for an opportunity to strike. It was clear that he had found his position through the Sharingan. Since his location had already been discovered, there was no need to use this useless Bloodline Limit.
Moreover, he had prepared multiple Transformation Techniques.
Ordinary Transformation Techniques might be easily seen through, but the Transformation Technique he used with the Mangekyo Sharingan was not so simple. At least, Uchiha Shisui, who also possessed the Mangekyo Sharingan, did not see through it.
Similarly, as Naruto appeared out of thin air, Uchiha Shisui's body, which was constantly using the Body Flicker Technique, paused slightly for a moment. It could be seen that he was also somewhat surprised.
Immediately afterward, a barrage of Kunai and Shuriken flew from all sorts of extremely tricky positions.
It was the Uchiha Clan's Shuriken throwing technique, using the collision of Shuriken and Kunai in the air to change direction, blocking all the enemy's dodging angles, leaving the enemy with no way to avoid them.
Naruto had nowhere to hide, but there was no need to hide. The Shuriken and Kunai thrown by Uchiha Shisui from various angles were like still objects in his eyes. This was the extremely strong insight brought by the Mangekyo Sharingan, coupled with the amplification that the Mangekyo Sharingan fed back to him. The sleeve sword popped out in his hand.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
As a series of metallic collision sounds rang out, a large number of sparks suddenly flashed in the dark and silent forest. Naruto simply used his sleeve sword to defend against all the Shuriken and Kunai.
But Naruto didn't stop moving. His body quickly turned, his hands raised to protect him, and two sleeve swords crossed in the air, blocking the slash that Uchiha Shisui swung from the darkness.
In the darkness, two pairs of Three-Tomoe Sharingan reflected each other's figures.
One pair was full of surprise, anger, and incomprehension, while the other pair only had calmness.
The collision between the two was fleeting. Uchiha Shisui retreated immediately after failing to strike, stopping only after a few meters.
He stared intently at the tall figure in front of him, the anger in his eyes seemed to turn into substance, burning Naruto to ashes.
"Why are you doing this?" Uchiha Shisui gritted his teeth, his expression extremely painful. "Do you know that your actions will put the clan and the village in complete opposition?"
"What did you do to 'Cat'?"
Uchiha Shisui recognized the mask on Naruto's face, and the other party's Three-Tomoe Sharingan made him mistakenly believe that the other party was a member of the Uchiha Clan.
"Hehe, are you talking about the owner of this mask?"
A harsh laughter suddenly came from Naruto's throat. His voice was hoarse and broken, as if he was constantly rubbing rough sandpaper against each other.
Uchiha Shisui also couldn't find a corresponding face within the Uchiha Clan through the voice.
"His Bloodline Limit is quite interesting. I borrowed it to play with, but it looks like that's all there is to it."
Uchiha Shisui's eyes widened instantly upon hearing this, and the Three-Tomoe Sharingan inside spun rapidly, connecting into a straight line, with an undisguised anger in his voice.
"You bastard, how dare you plunder the Bloodline Limit of a Ninja from the same village!"
"Oh? Does this make you so angry?"
"I will capture you here, and then take you to Lord Third Hokage to confess your sins."
The Three-Tomoe Sharingan in Uchiha Shisui's eyes transformed into the shape of a single-edged shuriken as they spun.
"Is that so? It seems you lean more towards Konoha than your own clan." Naruto sheathed his sleeve sword and drew the long sword from his waist.
"You think my stealing the village's Bloodline Limit is an unforgivable crime, but have you seen what's under Shimura Danzo's bandages?"
"What do you want to say?" Uchiha Shisui asked with a cold face, seemingly responding, but actually searching for Naruto's flaws. However, he found that the other party was full of flaws, making him unable to figure out the situation and unwilling to attack rashly.
"You really don't know, do you? Under those bandages, there's a Sharingan hidden!"
"Wh-what's impossible!"
Naruto's hoarse words caused Uchiha Shisui to fall into a momentary daze. He knew very well how much the Uchiha Clan valued their own Bloodline Limit. If this was true, and the clan knew that Shimura Danzo had a Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan, then the entire clan would definitely riot.
Naruto also seized the moment of Shisui's distraction, already swinging the long sword in his hand towards the distracted Uchiha Shisui.
He can't dodge it!
Uchiha Shisui immediately came back to his senses, but the long sword was already in front of him. Naruto's sword was wrapped in Wind Release Chakra, and he couldn't take it head-on.
"Clang—"
"Susanoo?!"
Naruto looked at the turquoise ribs that blocked his attack with some surprise. It was the first stage of Susanoo.
How cool.
He quickly retreated more than ten meters.
"In front of these eyes, you have no chance of winning."
Uchiha Shisui looked at Naruto coldly, "I will defeat you, and then make you tell me everything."
He decided to use his full strength directly. Before Konoha and the Uchiha Clan could react, he would first resolve the other party, to prevent the Uchiha Clan's assassination of the Anbu from spreading, and also to prevent the Uchiha from knowing about Shimura Danzo's situation.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of meridians and muscles grew out of the skeleton that enveloped Uchiha Shisui, turning into a majestic Samurai wielding a Spiral Sword.
Susanoo Second Stage.
