I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 121 The Uchiha Clan's Five-Year Development Plan

Count it up.

This was actually the first time that Uchiha Hikaru had come into close contact with Shisui after arriving in Konoha.

Previously, Fugaku had mentioned several times that he wanted her to help guide the "juniors" in the clan, and she herself had also wanted to meet Itachi and Shisui to find out about them. However, due to various reasons, she had not been able to make the trip.

Ultimately, it was under these circumstances that their first meeting took place.

present.

Uchiha Hikaru hesitated for a moment, then looked at Shisui with a scrutinizing gaze, pondering what to say.

It was only at this moment that Shisui seemed to suddenly realize what the ability of "Senzu Beans" to regenerate eyes meant, and he couldn't help but ask, "Great-Grandma, what exactly was that thing you just gave me to eat...?"

"Shh-"

Uchiha Hikaru made a shushing gesture: "It's a secret, don't ask."

"..."

After a brief silence, Uchiha Hikaru changed to a serious tone and spoke again: "Let's get down to business. Who were the people who launched the attack on you at the border this time? Were there any dressed in black robes with red cloud patterns?"

When she overheard Fugaku talking about this outside, she had already thought of the Akatsuki organization.

After all, the person who planned this ambush was definitely Obito.

Since Obito made his move, his goal was most likely to take away Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan, but he failed to do so... However, from another perspective, forcing Shisui to use Susanoo, which caused him to be on the verge of blindness, can be considered as achieving his goal.

"...A black robe with red cloud patterns?"

Shisui thought carefully for a moment and shook his head: "It seems not... According to the information collected and confirmed by the Anbu and Jiraiya-sama afterward, three of the attackers were members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist: Juzo Biwa, Raiga Kurosuki, and Mangetsu Hozuki... Some of the others were Jonin from Kirigakure, and the others looked like bounty hunters from the black market."

"for example?"

"For example, there's a person whose body is as if it's been sewn together with thread, and who can freely extend their limbs..."

"Is it all about the corners?"

Uchiha Hikaru instantly understood: "Anything else?"

"There's also a master of lightning release..."

"Don't know him, next."

"There was a white-haired man wearing a turtleneck coat who was skilled in psychic magic. He could summon many strange-looking monsters, such as a two-headed snake with regenerative abilities and a huge human-faced dog..."

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Hikaru frowned slightly:

If we only look at the characteristic of "being good at summoning jutsu", he might be the Animal Path of Pain. At this point in time, the Animal Path is indeed a male ninja... If I remember correctly, he is a ninja of the Fuma clan. Jiraiya saw him when he was young. As for his hair color, it is not impossible to fake it.

but……

A two-headed snake, a dog with a human face?

Doesn't that sound a bit like the ability of a character from a certain theatrical version?

"……I see."

Uchiha Hikaru pondered for a moment, then roughly understood the situation: "Let's change the subject, Shisui. What are your thoughts on the current state of the Uchiha clan?"

"?"

Shisui paused for a moment, but still pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "It's alright. A few years ago, due to the Nine-Tails' rampage, the relationship between the clan and the village was very tense, and many clansmen even wanted to launch a rebellion and go to war with the village... However, since you came back, Great-Grandma, such voices have become much quieter."

"Furthermore, thanks to your efforts and those of Clan Head Fugaku, the Uchiha clan has increased its interactions with other clans in the village. There have been many opportunities to carry out missions together, both inside and outside the village. Although some conflicts occasionally occur, overall things are developing in a positive direction..."

"yes."

Uchiha Hikaru continued, "Have you ever thought about what the Uchiha clan's current situation and future would be like without my appearance?"

"Forehead……"

Zhi Shui hesitated.

Uchiha Hikaru quietly observed Shisui for a while, and seeing that he couldn't come up with anything, he sighed softly: "Can't figure it out? Then go and see for yourself... the Tsukuyomi Crest!"

The words fell.

The world spun around.

When Shisui came to his senses, he found himself in a spacious, deserted movie theater. Rows of seats were neatly arranged, and the large screen in front of him was pitch black. Then, with a "snap," a beam of light shone onto the screen from behind, and images of Konoha Village began to appear.

"This is……"

Shi Shui turned around in surprise.

Standing against the light in front of the projector, Uchiha Hikaru, his eyes slightly closed, snapped his fingers: "Let's begin."

……

Next.

The version of "Itachi's True Story," edited and expanded by Uchiha Hikaru, began to play on the big screen.

In this era of Naruto, there was already a "movie" in the world, so Shisui was not unfamiliar with it.

At first, he simply watched with the mindset of a bystander, but as time went on, his expression gradually changed:

"These are indeed things I said to Itachi, how did you know, Great-Grandma..."

"Lord Danzo actually..."

"And Itachi..."

The scene of the night of the genocide flashed by.

Only after Itachi donned the Akatsuki's black robe with red clouds, marking the end of the Uchiha clan, did Uchiha Hikaru snap his fingers again, dimming the screen once more, before slowly speaking: "What are your thoughts?"

"..."

Well, Shisui's personality is indeed somewhat naive, and he also has shortcomings such as insufficient ability and indecisiveness, both in this timeline and the original story. But he's not truly stupid. After careful consideration, he quickly realized a fact—

If Uchiha Hikaru had never appeared, the conflict between the clan and Konoha would never have changed...

Given Danzo and Root's behavior, as well as the personalities of Fugaku, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Itachi, and others, the plots shown on the screen could actually happen!

And the probability might be quite high!

The only thing that made Shisui a little doubtful was whether Itachi would really be that extreme...

"...Great-Grandma, could it be that your Kaleidoscope Eye Technique allows you to see the 'future'?"

Shisui looked up and asked hesitantly.

Uchiha Hikaru didn't speak, but simply raised an index finger and put it to his lips.

"……Understood."

Zhi Shui wisely shut his mouth and stopped asking questions.

Only then did Uchiha Hikaru speak calmly: "I brought you to see these things only so that you would think carefully about the future of the Uchiha clan. As an elder, I can protect you from the storms of life, but ultimately, the fate of this clan depends on the efforts of you, the younger generation."

As they spoke, the Tsukuyomi was dispelled.

As Uchiha Hikaru threw out the capsule, several thick stacks of books appeared on the floor.

"Your pupils haven't fully recovered yet, so don't go out for now. Stay home and study..."

At this point, Uchiha Hikaru had an idea: "From today onwards, you will be the Uchiha clan's librarian. I will talk to Fugaku later and have the other junior members of the clan come here to browse these books. You will be responsible for supervising them, making sure they write at least 2 words of reflections on each book, and then holding regular book club discussions..."

Especially Itachi, who needs special attention; his reading response should be twice as long as everyone else's.

After we've finished reading all these books, let's write a five-year development plan for the Uchiha clan and get it to my review.
