After Uchiha Kagami left, the meeting here continued.
It was just that it had split into two factions.
As an elder of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Kagami naturally had considerable influence.
Moreover, as the only Uchiha recognized by Senju Tobirama, he also showed the clan members a new direction.
But for this very reason, Uchiha Tani became even more enraged.
As the Clan Head, he still couldn't unify the clan.
"Alright, no need to discuss further."
"For this matter, we will proceed as Elder Kagami suggested!"
Uchiha Tani pondered for a moment, a determined look appearing on his face.
It wasn't that he fully agreed with Uchiha Kagami's view now, but rather he wanted to see if doing so could truly resolve the conflict.
If not...
"Clan Head!"
"No more words, this is final!"
After Uchiha Tani finished speaking, he waved his hand, dismissing everyone.
Some Ninja who were somewhat unconvinced could only leave upon seeing the Clan Head's attitude.
"Fugaku, are you also very curious?"
Seeing Uchiha Fugaku remain, Tani looked at him with a hint of disappointment.
As his chosen successor for the next Clan Head, if Fugaku couldn't even grasp this intention...
"It's not curiosity, but rather I believe you, Clan Head, should take this matter seriously."
"Moreover, I can represent the clan to handle this."
Uchiha Fugaku said with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Tani was somewhat surprised.
As the Vice-Commander of the Konoha Military Police Force, Uchiha Fugaku held a high position within the family.
If this matter was not handled well, it would be difficult for him to gain the respect of the masses in the future.
Why would Fugaku take such a risk?
"Since you have this idea, then go ahead and do it."
Tani did not stop him.
To grow, one must experience certain things.
Perhaps this wasn't a bad thing.
...
At this moment, Roy was sitting in the living room.
He looked at the records on the panel; these were the injured scanned today, and the treatment records.
Roy was still very concerned about that golden mark.
"Roy, our mission is complete."
"The weather is a bit bad. I think we should go help the villagers repair their houses now."
Uchiha Shisui and Namikaze Kizuki had returned.
Seeing Roy in the living room, they reported their mission status.
"Mhm."
"The sooner we complete this mission, the sooner we can go out on another one."
"Let's go."
Roy nodded.
The three little ones picked up their tools and set off.
Late at night.
"Thank you all. These are some snacks I prepared. Please have some."
"After you eat, head back early. It's going to rain heavily tonight."
The old man handed over a box of snacks, speaking with a kind expression.
"Thank you."
"This is our duty."
Roy accepted the snacks, then led the two away from there.
"Roy, all missions are complete."
"Next, we'll be undertaking an escort mission, where we'll likely encounter some enemies."
"Most of these people should be Rogue Ninja, Rogue Samurai, and the like."
"Their combat experience is strong, so we'd best prepare in advance."
"Tonight, shall we go to our Uchiha training ground?"
Uchiha Shisui said directly.
The public training grounds could be used freely during the day.
But at night, due to nearby residents, they could not be used.
As for going home, if they were to conduct actual combat training, Tsunade would most likely join in.
At that time, a good beating would be unavoidable.
It wasn't that Shisui was afraid of being beaten, but rather that it wouldn't achieve the best training results.
"I have no problem."
"Alright, let's go."
After Roy and Xiyue nodded in agreement, the three little ones headed towards the Uchiha Clan Estate.
"Rustle, rustle, rustle..."
"Someone!?"
The three little ones immediately stopped their stealth, staying in their positions and hiding.
It was already late at night, and a light rain had even begun to fall.
At this hour, why were people still active within Konoha?
The three had been heading to the Uchiha Clan Estate by stealth, so they had not been discovered.
"Remember, you must get these four people out of the Village tonight."
"Be careful, those Uchiha people are not simple Ninja."
A Ninja wearing a black mask said in a low voice.
"Understood."
The other three nodded, then carried large black bags and headed towards the Village wall.
Upon reaching Shadow Leaf Lake, the four took off their bags.
They released the four people inside.
"Remember, once you leave the Village, never come back."
"And if you're caught by any pursuers, you know what to do, right?"
The masked Ninja, who was in charge, said calmly.
He was already adept at such things.
"We know."
"Hurry up and go. The longer I stay in the Village, the more uneasy I feel."
A man covered in injuries said anxiously.
He couldn't endure the methods of the Interrogation Department.
If he hadn't known beforehand that he would be fine, he might have already revealed some things.
"The guard change will take another hour."
"Even if we go now, we'll still have to wait."
"Let's stay here. No one will come here late at night."
After the masked man finished speaking, he immediately landed on a large tree.
What he said was true, but necessary precautions still had to be taken.
The remaining three, with the four people, hid in the bushes on one side.
Once the time came, they would choose to leave.
"Aihara, I didn't expect it to be you."
A familiar voice came from behind the Ninja hidden in the treetop.
"You..."
"Chh!"
Before Aihara could speak, his mouth was covered.
Immediately, a kunai was directly inserted into his neck.
His breath dissipated, and his entire body slumped onto the treetop.
Behind him, a pair of crimson eyes flashed under the lightning.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Dragon Bomb!"
As a massive amount of Chakra was released, terrifying lightning, carried by the rain, quickly forced the three out.
"Hurry, it's the Uchiha!"
"I'll stay to block, you guys take..."
"Block who?"
Before he could finish speaking, a figure appeared before him.
"Uchiha Fugaku..."
Before the words were out, the man's vision went black, and he lost consciousness.
The remaining two were also directly apprehended by the Uchiha Ninja.
"I say, since when did members of the Root Organization start doing this?"
"However, you could also be said to have heroically sacrificed yourselves for the Village."
Uchiha Fugaku said, then unhesitatingly took the lives of the two.
The remaining four were completely terrified.
They sat on the ground, speechless.
The rain grew heavier, and Konoha tonight would certainly not be so peaceful!
