A week later.

With the permission of the third generation, Uchiha Shisui temporarily protected Naruto on behalf of Captain Kakashi.

Taking Uchiha Itachi and Naruto to their secret base.

This is a steep cliff with a waterfall hanging high, and the Minagawa River flows through here.

Naruto, who had rarely been here in his previous life, stood on the edge of the cliff curiously and looked down.

I saw that the waterfall flowing straight down was not affected by the cold winter, and bursts of water mist rose when it fell.

The deep pool that should be frozen under the cliff is filled with smoke.

"This is the place where my grandfather once trained with the Second Hokage.

My grandfather was a disciple of the Second Hokage. Like the current Third Hokage, he was once the Hokage's bodyguard that Lord Tobirama could trust with his life.

And he has always kept Lord Tobirama's teachings in mind and has never betrayed this trust."

Standing next to Naruto, silently guarding him from falling, Shisui spoke proudly and his eyes were full of yearning.

This place is inaccessible, far away from residential buildings and commercial areas, and almost no outsiders come.

As early as two years ago... �, it became Shisui and Itachi's secret base.

In addition to providing guidance and teaching, the two would discuss many topics that were not suitable to discuss in front of the clan members.

"Shisui-senpai, what do you think, if the Second Hokage is still alive?

Will the Uchiha clan fall into the current predicament of external and internal troubles and unstable clan mentality?"

Hearing Shisui's sigh, Naruto suddenly raised his head and asked seriously

""Huh? You are so young, yet you are thinking about the problems between the Uchiha clan and the village?"

Shisui was very surprised when he heard that.

But he changed his mind and realized that Naruto is the son of the Fourth Hokage.

And the Fourth Hokage is close to the Uchiha clan leader Fugaku.

Even the Fourth Hokage's wife is the best friend of the Uchiha clan leader's wife!

Although Naruto is only three years old, he has been playing with Sasuke since he was a child and is close to the Uchiha clan.

In addition, the Fourth Hokage's wife has been influenced by him and taught him by example.

It is reasonable for him to take the initiative to pay attention to and think about the crisis facing the Uchiha clan.

However, this topic involves the secrets of the Night of the Nine-Tails, and he is not sure whether Naruto knows about it, so it is not easy for him to bring it up.

"Brother Shisui, I actually talked to Naruto about this, and he knows everything."

Itachi, who saw Shisui's concerns, took the initiative to come to the rescue.

【oh?】

【Did he even know about the mysterious Uchiha who attacked Konoha on the night of the Nine-Tails, and that the Nine-Tails was controlled by the Mangekyō Sharingan?

Shisui immediately turned to look at Itachi, and he read the answer he wanted from his eyes.

The two of them were close friends, and many things could be solved with just a glance.

"Well, if the Second Hokage is still here, it will not be difficult to resolve this potential crisis with his own skills and courage."

Shisui said what he was thinking.

Saying this seems to be disrespectful to the Third Hokage and doubts his ability.

But considering that the Third Hokage is Lord Tobirama's student, it doesn't matter.

What's more, as early as Lord Tobirama During his reign, there was a coup in the Uchiha clan under the instigation of Setsuna Uchiha.

According to his father, this kind of treasonous thing had actually been secretly monitored by his grandfather and reported to Lord Tobirama in private. Your Excellency was able to arrest Setsuna as soon as possible on the night of the coup, throw him into the prison of the security department, and suppress him completely!

In Shisui's view, if Lord Tobirama had not sacrificed, the tribe would not have the guts to even think about a coup!

【Why~~】

【In the final analysis, it is because of the long-term war that Konoha has become weak, and with Lord Minato in his deep sleep, the village is now in a period of transition! 】

Shisui sighed inwardly.

After all, family members understand their own affairs.

He has been watching and monitoring the movements of his clan members, and has always seen it clearly.

The people in the family have always been proud, and they will be inflated because of the powerful bloodline and family glory, but they are not stupid.

On the contrary, it is because the clan members generally admire the strong.

As long as there is a strong man who can suppress everything, everyone will restrain those thoughts of fighting for power and live a peaceful life honestly.

But the village is now...

Who else has the ability to convince the tribe members?

"Shisui-senpai, what do you think, if my father is not asleep and awake?

Under his leadership, will the Uchiha clan have a Hokage?"

Naruto looked directly into Shisui's eyes and asked seriously

"The Hokage of the Uchiha clan?"

When Zhisui heard this, his pupils suddenly dilated.

He did not answer immediately, but instead looked away and fell into deep thought.

Itachi on the side knew it very well.

Brother Zhisui's current performance shows that he is extremely uneasy inside.

"Well, if the Fourth Master had not been in trouble and was still in power, perhaps it would really be possible...."

After a long while, Shisui came back to his senses and murmured.

If the Fourth Hokage was still in office, it would mean that the Nine-Tails Rebellion would not have happened, and the Uchiha would not have fallen into the situation of being suspected by the villagers.

With the Fourth Hokage's kindness to the Uchiha clan, perhaps the next Hokage could really be born from the Uchiha clan!

After all, the Fourth Hokage, like the Second Hokage, personally taught a student from the Uchiha clan and placed high hopes on him!

"So the question is, since the Nidaime and my father can avoid your clan's predicament.

Why can't the third generation grandfather do it? Don't you want to do it?"

Naruto asked innocently with his big innocent eyes staring at him.

"No, Naruto, the Third Generation is also very troubled about this matter. He just..."

Shisui opened his mouth to refute, but halfway through he didn't know how to explain.

Is it because the Third Generation doesn't want to do it? of course not!

Otherwise, why would he value himself as an Uchiha so highly, and why would he be so concerned about this matter and want to find a peaceful solution? he just...He's just getting older and has more energy than he has....

Thinking of this, Zhisui felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

It's obvious that the Third Hokage has been exhausted physically and mentally for the sake of the village.

At the age when he should be retiring, he still has to step up to the throne and take on such an important responsibility!

But why can't my group of tribesmen, who are high-minded and short-sighted, not see the contribution that the three generations of adults have made for the village?

Obviously, the current village has fallen into the weakest period in history. It is already very difficult to recuperate and return to its peak!

But those guys in the clan are still fighting among themselves for power!

What a bunch of frogs in a well, too selfish and too sad!

Thinking of this, a flaming will ignited in Zhishui's chest.

Since the three generations are old and unable to do what they want.

Then he must take the initiative to maintain the peace of the village and stop all this!

"...Naruto, it is because the Hokage is old.

So I, who have these eyes, should stand up and take the initiative to maintain the peace of the village!"

Shisui further strengthened his belief and looked at Naruto with a firm look.

"Shisui-senpai, what if the price for stopping this is your death?"

Naruto asked in a serious tone.

"Then go to death."

Shisui replied without hesitation.

Naruto clearly saw that his eyes were flashing with blazing flames called"ideal"!

"But what if your death not only fails to prevent the conflict between the two sides, but completely pushes the Uchiha clan into the abyss of irreversible genocide?"

Naruto continued to ask, his tone a bit unbearable.

He had already understood Shisui's heart.

This is an ideal young man who has his sights on the entire Konoha and wants to maintain peace in the village....

Although he doesn't understand the power struggle among the village's top leaders, they use open and covert attacks.

But his original intention was not wrong. In his previous life, he took the initiative to die in order to avoid rebellion among his tribe.

This is more proof of his firm will!

His blood is hot and his heart is kind!

But because of a sinister old dog hiding in the dark, he ended up regretfully dying!

How sad this is for Konoha!

Naruto was determined.

Such a person deserves to be considered as a teammate!

He also believes that he can convince the other party.

Let him work with you to contribute to true peace!

After making this clear, Naruto did not wait for the stunned Shisui to answer.

Instead, he stretched out his right fist, stared into Shisui's eyes, and said solemnly:

"Uchiha Shisui, are you willing to join us so that the Uchiha clan can fully integrate into Konoha, not be treated unfairly, and work together to maintain peace in Konoha?

This is my last question.

In the name of the Seventh Hokage of Konoha Ninja Village!"
