If he were to expose this matter, it wouldn't have much impact on him.
As a genius of the clan, even Fugaku wouldn't be willing to punish him, let alone for the sake of a few dead people.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's side wouldn't be too concerned either.
To put it bluntly.
This was an internal Uchiha Clan matter, and according to Konoha's rules, it was handled with clan self-governance.
In Konoha's affairs, the Hokage had the final say.
In the event of war, the Hokage had the authority to mobilize various clans.
But, at the same time.
The Hokage had no right to interfere in the internal affairs of each clan.
Therefore.
As long as Fugaku didn't target him, his safety wouldn't be an issue.
At worst, he might be watched by the Third Hokage's faction, but with his current strength, as long as Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to completely break ties, it would be impossible for him to openly deal with him.
The only one he needed to consider was Danzo Shimura!
That guy's obsession with the Uchiha Clan had reached a pathological level.
If he found out about this, he would definitely make a move against him.
But, it didn't matter.
As long as Danzo didn't personally show up and mobilize all the Root's top experts, even if he couldn't win, he could still escape.
So.
Taking a slight risk to test Shisui.
This was a very worthwhile deal!
After all, Shisui had been too good to him, and he truly couldn't bear to watch him die.
If the test failed, then at worst, when the time came, he would just save his life.
But if the test succeeded, it would indicate that his importance in Shisui's heart was even higher than he imagined.
In that case.
He would have the possibility of changing Shisui!
He and Sarutobi Hiruzen and others would definitely become enemies sooner or later.
Although he wouldn't be afraid by himself, he was, after all, fighting alone.
If he could bring Shisui along, it would also be a good thing for him.
After all.
Shisui was considered a true genius in the Uchiha Clan.
As long as he didn't die prematurely, his future was unimaginable.
One must know that his Mangekyo was known as the strongest genjutsu, Kotoamatsukami!
"Shisui!"
"I've given you a chance, don't disappoint me."
"Let time take its course."
...Time slowly passed.
Three days later.
Just as they arrived at the border of the Land of Fire, preparing to find a boat to travel to the Land of Fire, two Hidden Mist Ninja squads suddenly rushed out.
"Hidden Mist Jutsu!"
The captains of the two squads began to quickly form hand seals the moment they attacked.
Immediately after.
As the two Hidden Mist Ninja opened their mouths, dense fog enveloped the transport squad.
"Protect the convoy, be careful of the enemy!"
Kudo Shin roared, then his hands began to quickly form hand seals.
"Earth-Style Wall!"
Boom!
Countless amounts of earth surged, instantly forming a high wall that directly shielded the convoy behind it.
Kudo Shin didn't stop afterward, continuing to form hand seals.
It wasn't until he had used the technique three times, creating three walls, that he stopped, his face pale.
His Chakra was exhausted!
There was nothing he could do.
He was just an ordinary civilian Chunin; being able to achieve this much was already excellent.
Indeed, that was the case.
With the three walls erected, they blocked the two Hidden Mist squads.
Unless a truly powerful individual appeared, ordinary ninja really didn't have a good way to break through.
The two Hidden Mist squads sent out, with two individuals capable of using Hidden Mist Jutsu, already indicated that they were Kirigakure elites.
One must know.
Even Konoha Ninja only learned the Basic Three Body Technique after graduation.
Konoha was the strongest ninja village.
From this, one could imagine what the situation would be like for Kirigakure, which was inferior to Konoha.
Ordinary ninja basically fought with kunai.
Their Three Body Technique was not as good as Konoha's.
Just as Kudo Shin made his move, the convoy also began to form a circle, and their squad gathered together.
"My Chakra is depleted; I need ten minutes to recover."
"During this time, it's up to you."
"But don't be afraid, the Hidden Mist won't dare to act rashly."
After saying this, Kudo Shin swallowed a Military Ration Pill and began to sit cross-legged on the ground to recover.
Uchiha Jin and the other two exchanged glances, their brows furrowing slightly.
"Jin, what do you think?" Nara Kazama asked.
Uchiha Jin, after a moment of surprise, replied, "They are hidden, we are exposed; let's defend."
Nara Kazama nodded.
He felt there was nothing wrong with Uchiha Jin's idea.
If they attacked rashly while the Hidden Mist was concealed, they would only be picked off one by one.
But, unfortunately.
Although the two of them had decided on a method, Ishikawa Itsuki couldn't hold back.
He had disliked the two of them for a long time and had been holding in his anger throughout the journey.
Now.
The two of them had chosen the defensive method he disliked the most, which immediately made him lose his temper.
"You two are truly cowards!"
"Just two Hidden Mist Ninja squads, I don't know what you're so afraid of."
"Don't forget, I was among the top three in our class."
"I came to the battlefield to kill enemies and earn merit, not to play house with you."
"Heh heh, don't worry."
"If you encounter danger, as someone who was among the top three in our class, I will definitely save you."
"And, don't forget."
"We already decided that if the captain had a problem, I would be the acting captain."
"I now declare, we will launch an active attack!"
"I want to beautifully counter-kill these two Hidden Mist squads and let them know the might of us Konoha Ninja."
