Although she couldn't control herself for a moment, Uchiha Mikoto immediately adjusted her expression, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and pretended nothing had happened.
Even though I was angry about my son running away from home... I am still his mother after all.
We can't add further damage to our son's already precarious dignity.
So she stopped thinking about the previous plans and frowned slightly, looking worried:
"Itachi..."
Uchiha Itachi: ...I don't really want to talk.jpg
But he was the one who made the mistake after all and had no right to argue, so he could only turn his head and move to the side with the sign.
——As long as I don’t face it directly, it’s not the worst situation.
Faced with the performance of his eldest son, whom he had always been proud of, Uchiha Fugaku was silent for two seconds and then coughed lightly.
"Since this is a punishment, just take good care of it... This is the responsibility we Uchiha should have."
If he had seen this scene in the past, Uchiha Fugaku's sensitive nerves would probably make him feel that this was an insult to the Uchiha clan, and that others were making things difficult for him.
But today, when Uchiha has successfully transformed and even solved most of the eye-opening problem, he can only force himself to hold back his laughter and put on a serious expression to accept this "punishment".
Anyway, if it were him, he wouldn't know how to punish.
It would be better to continue with Miss Yu Yue’s punishment.
Although he has always been proud of his son, to be honest, Uchiha Fugaku sometimes feels a little regretful.
After all, his son is too strong, so he actually has a bit of a lack of presence as a father.
Now look at the child making a fool of himself.
...Well, it is really a precious scene worth recalling.
He glanced at his wife beside him out of the corner of his eye.
——I believe Mikoto must have the same idea.
The couple looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
After being a genius and a child of other people's families for so many years, Uchiha Itachi experienced for the first time the pain of children from ordinary families.
The kind where, instead of crying when seeing their child in trouble, they take photos to commemorate the event and even bring them up as a topic of conversation many years later.
...This is the case when they don't know that Ugetsu has photos of Uchiha Itachi's dark history.
Uchiha Itachi looked at his parents like this and felt a little helpless for a moment.
Although he had had many doubts and times of uncertainty in his life, none of them made him feel as empty and helpless as he did today.
Fortunately, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto were not so bad as to keep watching their son here (mainly because they were worried that they would be held against them in the future if they acted too obviously), and Uchiha Itachi's public execution did not last too long.
But if I have to stay in the corridor like this all the time, I will be stared at by passers-by... There is nothing I can do about it.
Punishment is punishment.
Although their son's affairs were important, the Uchiha Fugaku couple did not come here entirely for Itachi's affairs.
——After all, everyone is back, whether it is good or bad or if there are any other problems, we can take it slow.
They came here for another reason.
It’s Uchiha Madara... and matters related to the Tsukuyomi world developed by Uchiha Madara.
From a certain perspective, this is actually the fundamental reason why they came here this time.
As for the son.
Well, that is of course very important.
But now they have seen that the person is fine and in good spirits.
Then the focus is of course still work... Oh, by the way, I have to ask Shisui what it's like when Itachi returns.
Why did he hear someone say that Itachi was tied up and brought back by the first generations?
It would be even better if I could use the Sharingan to show them in the world of illusion.
This certainly doesn’t mean that you want to see your children suffer misfortune... As a parent, how can you have such thoughts?
They just want to know the truth.
What's wrong with that?
While Uchiha Fugaku was distracted in his thoughts, he continued to discuss the matter of the 'Tsukuyomi World' with Ugetsu.
That's something only the Sharingan can do.
Judging from the importance Miss Yu Yue places on this, this should also be a main direction for Yu Yue Store in the future.
Regardless of whether they are the owners of the Sharingan or the family that first supported Miss Ugetsuki, they cannot miss such an important project.
Think about the Hidden Mist Village back then.
Because they missed the train to Ugetsu Store, the entire Kirigakure seemed to be out of touch with the world, falling behind to the point where they couldn't even bear to watch.
With such a painful lesson in mind, Uchiha said he would definitely follow Miss Ugetsu's footsteps. He would not miss her, nor would he let others surpass him.
Self, stand in front.
The title of 'Ugetsu Store's number one partner' has been secured by the Uchiha!
That's why Uchiha Fugaku stood here, ready to do ideological work for Uchiha Madara, who occupies an important position in this.
"But Mr. Madara, I'm afraid you won't be so easily convinced."
Yu Yue gave Uchiha Fugaku a shot of prevention first.
Even though they are of the same clan, from his attitude towards Shisui, one can tell that he is not someone who would show mercy just because they share the same blood.
——Especially now that he is in the state of Impure World Reincarnation, let alone bloodline, even the idea of ​​'breathing under the same sky' is not valid.
As Yu Yue said this, she stole a glance at the boy next to her.
And I don’t know if it was her illusion.
Ugetsu always felt that when Uchiha Madara faced Shisui, his attitude seemed to be more serious than usual, and there was a feeling of scrutiny and scrutiny.
...Maybe he is the kind of person who is strict with himself (including people on his side) but lenient with others (people outside)?
Faced with Yu Yue's reminder, Uchiha Fugaku actually did not have any hesitation at all.
After all, that was Uchiha Madara.
As a legendary figure of the Uchiha clan, it would be a lie to say that he was not worried or afraid at all.
The eternal Mangekyō Sharingan alone is enough to make him look down upon 99.99% of the Uchiha clans, not to mention that in addition to the Sharingan, he is also one of the top talents in the ninja world.
But when I think of the Uchiha's current life, and the backward appearance of the ninja village ninja clan that didn't cooperate with Miss Ugetsu before...
Uchiha Fugaku took a deep breath and became firm again.
Just Uchiha Madara.
Compared with their present and future happiness, how can it be terrible?
Besides, life is so good, wouldn’t it be better to just use the power of the Sharingan for fighting and killing?
"Don't worry, I will definitely convince Madara -sama ."
As Uchiha and owners of the Sharingan, they must find ways to give their proud bloodline limits more room to shine.
As the leader of the Uchiha clan and the main person in charge of Uchiha business.
Uchiha Fugaku felt that this was his and other Uchiha's unshirkable responsibility!
Faced with Uchiha Fugaku's request to meet Uchiha Madara and help him persuade him, Yu Yue certainly did not
Will deny.
Even give it a thumbs up.
Rather than an outsider trying to persuade them with earnest words, it would certainly be more effective to let the blood-related tribesmen persuade them.
Even if this is not the case, if someone is willing to help you do the job, why not do it?
only……
Looking at Uchiha Fugaku's heroic back as he left, Yu Yue suddenly touched his chin with a thoughtful expression.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing Ugetsu's strange reaction, Uchiha Shisui put down the cup in his hand and asked curiously.
"It's just a rather strange association."
Yu Yue organized her words.
"Don't you think our current situation is a bit like that... a vicious rich man takes a fancy to a beautiful girl, and then uses his money power to get everyone around the beautiful girl to help him persuade her."
Yu Yue hesitated, not knowing what words to use to accurately describe the scene or feeling.
Colluding with the wicked? Aiding the tyrant?
Uchiha Shisui didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"How can you say that?"
He couldn't help but squeeze Yu Yue's hand.
"It's obviously a good thing, why is it so strange here, Miss Dao Yuyue?"
"Don't you think they look alike?"
The more Yu Yue thought about it, the more it resembled what happened to her.
You see, she is rich, right?
Uchiha Madara is reluctant, right?
Then go and persuade Uchiha Madara that Uchiha Fugaku is his blood relative, and he can also benefit from it, right?
Aren't they exactly the same?
It is simply a classic among classics.
Uchiha Shisui: ...
The young man held his forehead helplessly.
He discovered that Miss Yu Yue seemed to have some strange... um, villain plots?
Everyone else wanted to be the protagonist, and when they had associations, they usually thought of plots about eliminating evil and promoting good. Only Miss Ugetsu...
Should I say she is worthy of being Miss Ugetsu?
Even the wonderful associations are so special.
It's not that he dislikes the fact that the other party always has some villain associations.
only……
"Ms. Yu Yue is obviously doing good things."
Yu Yue: “…”
That’s not always the case.
Although this may sound a bit narcissistic.
But she seems to have a very... well, perhaps it should be described as truth, goodness and beauty among ninjas?
Especially here in Shisui.
To be honest, she sometimes really wondered what kind of image she was in Shisui's eyes.
Could it be that it really is the kind with a halo on its head and two wings behind it?
Um……
Probably not that exaggerated.
Putting aside the little episode on Ugetsu's side, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto finally found Uchiha Madara in the park of Ugetsu's store.
Unlike Tobirama Senju, who buried himself in the laboratory and almost ignored what was happening outside.
Although Uchiha Madara was a little "uncomfortable" because of his previous doubts, he was not so obsessed with research after all.
So I still have a lot of time to hang out outside on weekdays.
Of course, saying "strolling" is not really appropriate.
After all, he also helped out with a lot of work.
So it should be said that you should explore this new world more in your spare time.
After all, everything in this world is so special.
It's a different era.
It's more like a 'completely different world', so Uchiha Madara would occasionally have doubts.
Maybe they actually went to a completely different world.
A world that is similar to the world you know, but completely different.
"…What do you want from me?"
Uchiha Madara, who had his back to the crowd, suddenly spoke.
"Uchiha?"
Seeing the two of them, Uchiha raised an eyebrow in surprise.
There hasn't been a proper Uchiha for such a long time (except Uchiha Shisui and those children), he almost thought that all the high-ranking Uchiha leaders were dead - if they were not all dead, why wouldn't they come to find him, the former clan leader?
Even if they don't want to admit it, they should have some basic awareness of being prepared for danger, right?
As for the option of 'the Uchiha clan are too busy and no one is prepared to spare the energy and time to face their former clan leader'... of course it never appeared in Uchiha Madara's mind from the beginning.
——But the truth is so cruel.
The Uchiha people.
Either you don't know about Uchiha Madara (not qualified), or
I know it, but I am overwhelmed because I have multiple jobs to handle.
In addition, the other party is accompanied by the first and second generations and Miss Ugetsu...
Then you don't have to worry at all.
This combination is much safer than if they handled it themselves.
What else do they have to worry about?
Of course, I continue to live my life step by step . It is more important to finish the work at hand first.
No matter how bad things get, we still have the clan leader, Lord Fugaku.
So, the last ones to arrive were the Uchiha Fugaku and his wife.
"Yes, I am the head of this generation of Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku."
Uchiha Fugaku briefly introduced himself and his wife.
"This is my wife, Uchiha Mikoto."
"Madara-sama."
Uchiha Mikoto also bowed.
Uchiha Madara did not respond immediately, but glanced back and forth between the two of them and then made an evaluation.
“… So-so.”
If it were someone else, Uchiha Madara would not have such a critical attitude.
But the person in front of him is the one who inherited the position of Uchiha clan leader and will lead the Uchiha clan forward.
You have to be strong.
Uchiha Fugaku: ...There's no need to explain it so clearly.
Uchiha Fugaku is aware that he is not a top-notch expert.
Even if they both have their eyes opened, the contrast between a 'genius' and an 'ordinary person' is still a world of difference.
That's why Uchiha Fugaku was so surprised when he saw Itachi's talent.
Because he understood that only a true genius could truly lead the Uchiha to create new history.
Of course that was an idea from a long time ago.
Now, he is still very open-minded.
Whether it's Itachi or Sasuke, they can try whatever they want to do.
Now they have this opportunity to make mistakes.
Look at Itachi, didn't he just run away? His father hasn't broken his legs yet, which has already moved the father of the ninja world.
Ahem, this is all off topic.
The focus now is to convince Uchiha Madara.
"Compared to you, I definitely can't compare."
Uchiha Fugaku didn't care about Madara's unfriendly attitude.
...That can't be said, after all, we have to follow the tribe
Judging from the records in the forum, the other party's current attitude is already good.
“But we also have our own ways.”
Having worked with Ugetsu for such a long time, Uchiha Fugaku had naturally learned some words and conversation methods.
"Maybe not as powerful as you, but under the current model, the Uchiha clan also has a very bright future."
When Uchiha Fugaku said this, he held his head and chest high, appearing very confident.
He is indeed very confident.
After all, the Uchiha clan is now richer and happier than ever before.
Moreover, this abundance is not only reflected in the profits, but also in the reserves of talents and Sharingan, which are unprecedentedly large.
Thinking of Miss Ugetsu's outrageous but indeed effective method, Uchiha Fugaku's chest straightened even higher.
It's obvious that he wants others to see how confident and proud he is.
Do you still want me to ask you why you are so proud?
Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes at the younger generation who took on the position of clan leader that he once held.
How come he doesn't know that there are people with this kind of personality in Uchiha?
Seeing that Uchiha Madara did not reply, Uchiha Fugaku felt a little regretful - after all, the Uchiha could be as rich and powerful as it is today, and it was also due to his contribution.
With such an honor, he certainly wanted to show off to someone. But in the clan, he was a mature and steady clan leader, and in Konoha, he was a respected senior official in the village.
Now that he finally has an 'elder' to show off to, he's still thinking about showing off a little bit, and then leading to the following development.
For example, when the other party asks how rich he is, he can tell them about the current situation of the Uchiha people, how busy people are under his leadership, and how many people have opened their eyes.
What a shame... But it doesn't matter.
"I can say with great pride that the Uchiha clan is now the most famous and prestigious ninja clan in Konoha and even in the entire ninja world." After all, he is Miss Ugetsu's closest partner.
"oh?"
Speaking of this, Uchiha Madara became interested as expected.
He was a little happy, but couldn't help but said with disgust:
“I guess a lot of the tribesmen must have opened their eyes.”
After all, the Uchiha's strength is inseparable from the Sharingan.
The Sharingan is associated with hatred and tragedy.
I never thought that under such a peaceful appearance, there are so many tragedies and massacres.
When Uchiha Madara thought of this, his expression became even colder.
Sure enough, it is impossible to have peace.
Even in the shadow of today's rich and peaceful world, it is still no different from the past.
"Yes."
Seeing that Uchiha Madara finally mentioned a topic that he could talk about at length, Uchiha Fugaku also became excited.
"The rate of eye-opening among our group of Uchiha far exceeds people's expectations!"
——There is so much tragedy and hatred! ?
Uchiha Madara stared fiercely at Uchiha Fugaku.
However, the other party did not notice the sharpness in Uchiha Madara's eyes at all, and continued to speak to himself:
“The age of eye opening is also much lower than in the past.”
Even children! ?
Uchiha Madara's eyes widened even wider, and a murderous aura slowly emerged from his body.
Although he knew peace was impossible.
But children?
The Uchiha opened their eyes early, could that be a good thing?
Of course not, if it wasn't a matter of life and death, or if he hadn't experienced tremendous pain at an early age, how could he have opened his eyes at such a young age?
He couldn't believe that the man in front of him, as the head of the Uchiha clan, could actually boast about his 'opening of eyes at such a young age'.
If it was the Warring States Period, there would be nothing wrong with it, because every additional pair of Sharingan would be a boost to the clan's strength.
For children who possess the Sharingan, it also increases their chances of returning alive from the battlefield.
But this is the 'era of peace' - what on earth did you and the high-ranking officials of this generation of Uchiha do to these children!?
"So... huh?"
Uchiha Fugaku was talking happily when Uchiha Mikoto suddenly hit him in the side with his elbow.
He stopped talking with a confused look on his face, and belatedly realized the murderous intent coming from Uchiha Madara.
"… Madara-sama?"
Uchiha Madara was much calmer at this time.
"Why don't you continue?"
He folded his arms.
"Tell me what you did to the Uchiha children."
Uchiha Fugaku:?
What can this do?
It's just an eye-opening experiment.
Although Miss Yu Yue's method is effective, it is a new solution after all, and it is not perfect or targeted enough in all aspects.
Therefore, they still need to make some targeted adjustments and accumulate experience.
For example, is it better to stimulate their potential by targeting their personality or their weaknesses? Another example is, under almost the same circumstances, is it fear or shock that can touch their hearts more?
For example, what things in the scene can stimulate them more effectively?
In addition, although Miss Yu Yue's method is very effective, the "stimulation" thing can only have the greatest impact on people if it is sudden enough.
Once people (especially ninjas) are prepared, it becomes difficult to be effective.
Therefore, the confidentiality link is also an important and difficult part of the work.
To be specific, we need to prepare an effective charter...
Ten thousand thoughts flashed through Uchiha Fugaku's mind, but in Uchiha Madara's opinion, the other party was hesitant and timid.
Because I know I have done something excessive, I am running away.
He got angry on the spot.
The unrestrained murderous aura seemed to solidify into a entity, and the floor beneath Uchiha Madara's feet even shattered because it could not withstand his strength.
Spider-web-like cracks continued to spread into the distance.
"Madara! What's wrong!?"
He comes to harass him for no reason... Hashirama Senju, who cares for his lonely best friend, sensed his best friend's murderous intent as soon as he approached, and he rushed over in shock.
Seeing the two young men in front of Uchiha Madara who were obviously Uchiha, he quickly stood in front of them and persuaded Madara:
"What happened? Hey, even if you are in a hurry, you can't give birth to a child like this."
Even though the two people in front of him were already parents of two children, in Senju Hashirama's eyes, they were still much younger than them.
"Ask him yourself what he did."
Uchiha Madara certainly wouldn't care about these things if he was still planning to destroy the ninja world and then use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to create a new happy world.
Even if all the Uchiha died, it would have nothing to do with him anymore.
But it's different now.
Now he had finally begun to accept this world where even the wind seemed to be much gentler than before, but he heard that the Uchiha clan leader had done this to the children of the clan...
…
How could he not be angry?
"So, what did you do?"
Senju Hashirama turned around curiously and asked.
"If there is a misunderstanding, explain it clearly."
Uchiha Fugaku looked confused: "We were just discussing the eye-opening of the children in the clan."
ah!
Having said this, he suddenly opened his eyes wide as if he had realized something.
——He only said that their eyes were opened, but didn’t he also say that this was a completely new way of opening their eyes that Miss Ugetsu developed for them?
After realizing where the problem might be, Uchiha Fugaku quickly spoke:
“It’s not what you think.”
"No? Aren't you talking about the Uchiha opening his eyes?"
"It is eye-opening... but not in the way you think."
Uchiha Madara was almost laughing out of anger:
"Are you still going to say that you have developed a completely different way of opening your eyes than in the past!?"
That's the method the Uchiha clan has explored over thousands of years. Do you think we can find it by finding a new method?
Uchiha Fugaku didn't notice his subtle change in mood.
After hearing what he said, he slapped his thigh and said:
"Yes! That's exactly what happened - as expected of Madara-sama, you understood it so quickly."
Uchiha Fugaku thought about those old stubborn people in the clan who just couldn't come to their senses no matter what they said and felt that this was against the ancestral laws. Lord Madara was so easy to communicate with!
Uchiha Madara: “…”!
