Chapter 414 Dialogue, Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan
"Hmph, they're definitely afraid of our Uchiha Sharingan. They're afraid we'll control the tailed beasts and pose a threat to the village, that must be it!"
“That’s right. They are now trying to completely isolate us Uchiha. The village is suspicious of us and doesn’t trust the Uchiha.”
"Damn it, if it were young master Sasuke, he could definitely control the Nine-Tails and teach the Hokage a lesson!"
"That's right, we also have young master Sasuke, who possesses the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan..."
"Captain, let's do it! They're going too far, we can't just sit here and wait to die."
As everyone spoke, the Uchiha clan members' remarks became increasingly radical and angry, causing Sasuke, who was standing nearby, to suddenly realize something.
Indeed, the Uchiha clan massacre must have been partly due to their clan's location being too far from the village. If they had been in their current clan territory, they certainly wouldn't have been slaughtered so quietly!
"That's enough. I know everyone is very unhappy about this, and so am I."
Just as Sasuke was about to speak, Fugaku crossed his arms and shouted, interrupting him, "This is the village's decision. This relocation is not just for the Uchiha clan; other clans will also move."
"But Captain..."
"No buts, this is an unchangeable fact." Fugaku spoke again, suppressing the crowd's anger. "Regardless of how the village views the Uchiha, we must not act rashly. Don't forget, this is wartime, and the Hokage still has the Legendary Sannin of Konoha and the Yellow Flash on his side!"
After offering a word of advice to calm everyone down, Fugaku finally smiled and looked at Sasuke beside him.
"Although the relocation was a last resort, the Uchiha are not without a future. Just wait, after a few years of dormancy, the next era will surely belong to the Uchiha..."
"Now I'll formally introduce him to everyone. He is my son, Uchiha Sasuke, a super genius who awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan at the age of 13!!"
Instantly, Fugaku's words silenced all the clansmen, who all looked at Sasuke with excitement and hope.
"Indeed, if it were young master Sasuke, he could definitely change the Uchiha clan!"
"Yes, a Mangekyou Sharingan at the age of 13. Even Madara Uchiha, who helped the First Hokage establish Konoha, wasn't such a genius. Our Uchiha clan might produce another Madara Uchiha, but the Hokage's side will never have another Hashirama Senju!"
"Hahaha... I understand the clan leader's meaning! As long as young master Sasuke grows a few more years, neither the Legendary Sannin of Konoha nor the Yellow Flash will be a threat. The next era will surely belong to our Uchiha!!"
"Relocate! Go home now, pack your things, and prepare to relocate. So what if we Uchiha are isolated? Isolation is mutual; we can use this opportunity to secretly strengthen the Uchiha."
"Captain, please do your best to teach Sasuke. He has not been in the clan since he was a child, so he may not be proficient in Sharingan genjutsu and fire release techniques."
"Young Master Sasuke, please feel free to come to us if you have any questions. We'll be waiting for you anytime..."
In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere of violence shifted as Konoha's oppressive atmosphere and Sasuke's boundless hope with his Mangekyou Sharingan shifted, with the doves and hawks colluding.
This sudden change prevented Sasuke from uttering his suggestion to refuse the relocation.
Yes, he's already here. Completing that mission will definitely change the tragedy of our genocide. So what if we have to relocate and isolate?
"That's settled then. Shisui, this afternoon you'll familiarize Sasuke with the security team's mission procedures. For now, you two will be in a group." Fugaku nodded in satisfaction and directly assigned the most talented Chunin Uchiha in the clan.
Given Sasuke's strength, whether he's a Jonin or a Genin, the effect of teaming up with him would be about the same. What he did was simply to find a partner for Sasuke and cultivate a bond with him.
"Brother Sasuke, please take care of me from now on!"
Before Sasuke could react, Shisui, a Chunin with two tomoe Sharingan eyes, stepped forward and smiled gently.
"Uh, okay, Shisui."
Sasuke looked at that familiar, youthful face and nodded awkwardly, his heart filled with complex emotions.
Unexpectedly, Shisui, the elder brother whom Itachi once revered, is now going to change his status and become his subordinate!
But this is for the best. Shisui was an Uchiha genius with the Mangekyou Sharingan, and he couldn't let it develop to the point of suicide.
"Sasuke, come with me." As the clansmen left, Fugaku suddenly stood up and called out to Sasuke.
Sasuke turned his head curiously upon hearing this, and saw Fugaku open a tatami mat to reveal a secret staircase leading to the underground Naga stone monument.
“This is…” Although he had already seen it, Sasuke still pretended not to know and exclaimed in surprise, following Fugaku into the secret room.
"This is the secret gathering place of the Uchiha clan. Inside, there is a stone tablet that records the secrets of the Uchiha clan. This is also another reason why I brought you to the Naka Shrine today," Fugaku explained as he walked in, lighting candles and closing the door immediately after entering.
"You saw the situation in the clan today. The conflict between the village and the Uchiha clan was sown during the Second Hokage's time, and now, with the Third Hokage and his aggressive actions, it has intensified and a conflict could break out at any time!"
“Sasuke, I don’t know what your purpose is in appearing at this time. I also don’t know whose child you are! But I can feel your feelings for the Uchiha and your bond with your family.”
"So..." At this point, Fugaku suddenly closed his eyes, which were meeting Sasuke's gaze, and then opened them again in the next instant. The three tomoe in his eye sockets had transformed into a triangular windmill pattern adorned with three black dots.
"The Mangekyou Sharingan!! How is that possible??"
Instantly, Sasuke, upon seeing Fugaku's eyes, felt his mind go blank, his expression changed drastically, and he blurted out in disbelief, as if his worldview had been greatly shocked!
How could my father, Fugaku, possess the Mangekyou Sharingan? And so early on!!
But if he had those eyes, why didn't he stop Itachi on the night of the massacre eight years later?
Within Itachi's Tsukuyomi genjutsu, he saw his parents being slaughtered with a single blow, offering almost no resistance! What on earth was going on??
"These are the eyes that awakened after my friend sacrificed himself to save me on the battlefield some time ago." Seemingly quite satisfied with Sasuke's shock, Fugaku's lips unconsciously curved into a slight smile, his expression calm.
"So Sasuke, I can accept you regardless of your past. I can also accept everything about you, including entrusting the future of the Uchiha clan to you!"
"However, if you approach me or the Uchiha with ulterior motives, then I can tell you clearly now that I will absolutely not allow you to do anything that would harm the Uchiha or their families."
"absolute!!"
