-------------------------------------------------------------
Even though Shisui has a good impression of Danzo, he has to believe that this matter is true.
Danzo is not a good person.
"Is all of this true?"
Shisui rubbed his face, still finding it hard to believe. He didn't think Kazuki would go out of his way to joke about this, especially since Kazuki had just returned from the mission the day before.
Besides, this kind of thing can't be faked. A simple check would reveal the truth.
If Kazuki dared to say it, then it must be true.
The Daimyo needs protection. Danzo wants to assassinate him. The Daimyo doesn't trust the people of Konoha, so only the Uchiha can act.
Because the relationship between the Uchiha and Danzo is terrible, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
For this reason, the Daimyo is willing to accept the proposal for Uchiha to send people to protect him.
Too lazy to answer the question, Kazuki continued:
"The Hokage has rushed to the Hokage's office building. It's probably to deal with Danzo and Root. This time, Root might be disbanded, and Danzo might even lose his position and be forced to retire. But publicly, it will be claimed that he's under surveillance."
"After all, the Hokage needs to stabilize the Daimyo and prevent him from doing anything drastic."
"Your task is to protect the Daimyo. During this period, no matter who it is, no one can harm the Daimyo. No matter who asks, you must firmly execute this task. Whether it's Danzo, the Hokage, or any other elders, you can't pay attention to them."
"Because I can't be sure if others are involved in this."
You want to be a double agent, right?
You have a strong sense of responsibility, right?
Now it's your turn to choose!
The elders or the Daimyo—this concerns Konoha and the entire Land of Fire. Do you, Uchiha Shisui, still dare to stand with the elders?
Once some gaps are created, it's not easy to repair them.
Kazuki doesn't like Shisui, but he has to admit Shisui's strength.
Someone like Shisui, if used well, is a compliant and powerful tool.
"I will confirm this with the clan leader. If everything is true, I will take on this responsibility and ensure the safety of the Daimyo, never letting anyone harm him."
Inwardly tormented, jumping back and forth, Shisui finally let his arms fall weakly.
As Kazuki predicted, Shisui chose to protect the Daimyo.
His stance has risen from family and village to village and the Land of Fire. At this level, it's hard for the family and high-ranking officials to influence his decisions.
This is the result Kazuki wanted.
"Good."
With his goal achieved, Kazuki got up to leave. After taking two steps, he turned back and looked at Shisui:
"Shisui, you know, I really don't like you, but I have to admit, you are a selfless and great person. Please forgive me for not being like you, because the family doesn't need selfless people."
"Also, I hope you stay away from Itachi in the future. I believe you understand what I mean. The family doesn't need so many selfless people. Itachi is very thoughtful and smart. I don't want him standing with you."
"For the family, for the village, and even for the entire Land of Fire."
Itachi has already been swayed, but not so much that it can't be reversed. Given time, Kazuki believes he can make Itachi the family's loyal follower.
So it's better for Shisui to stay away.
His selflessness constantly influences Itachi.
After Kazuki left, Shisui immediately went to the clan leader's residence, where Fugaku was waiting for him.
"Clan leader…"
Just as he began to speak, Shisui was interrupted.
Fugaku shook his head slightly and put down his teacup:
"Shisui, Kazuki's words are my words. I hope you can take on this responsibility for the family, the village, and even the entire Land of Fire. You won't have many people to trust during this time. You're a smart person; I think you understand what I mean."
If Danzo dares to plot an assassination, then does the Third Hokage have similar thoughts?
During the period of protecting the Daimyo, you can't trust anyone lightly.
Even the Third Hokage.
This means that during this mission, the only person Shisui can trust and take orders from is Kazuki.
"Clan leader, I understand. I will ensure the Daimyo's safety, even at the cost of my life."
"Very good."
Fugaku nodded in satisfaction.
But inwardly, he sighed 'Shisui, for the sake of the family and the village, you have to bear this burden.'
The police department soon received a notification from the Hokage: no Uchiha member is allowed to leave the Uchiha clan area or the police department before dawn.
This notification from the Hokage's office further confirmed Kazuki's words: everything is true.
At least Shisui believed it.
The Third Hokage was busy dealing with Danzo and Root and worried that Kazuki would spread the news.
So he simply blocked off the police department and the Uchiha clan area. Only after everything is settled can the Uchiha go out.
Little did he know, trying to keep secrets by sealing off the area was just wishful thinking.
Kazuki had long predicted that the Third Hokage would take action, so the news shouldn't spread from within but from outside.
If it spread from the family and village, it would be the Uchiha's fault.
But if it came from outside, it had nothing to do with the Uchiha.
The Third Hokage would only blame the Daimyo, thinking it was he who spread the news.
The aim is to let everyone know to prevent Konoha from turning against them afterward.
Overnight, Danzo lost the Root division he had painstakingly built and his position as the Hokage's advisor, being sent to a secluded place to retire.
To prevent Danzo from causing trouble out of desperation, the Third Hokage only allowed him to keep five people.
After dealing with these matters, the Third Hokage sent Homura Mitokado to the Daimyo's mansion to show the village's sincerity, while he stayed in Konoha, worried that Danzo might act out.
Someone so power-hungry would be greatly agitated by losing everything suddenly.
During this period, if he wasn't in the village, the chances of Danzo causing trouble were high.
To prevent this, the Third Hokage had to stay in Konoha while Homura went to the Daimyo.
Shisui, responsible for the Daimyo's safety, traveled alone.
Shisui arrived at the Daimyo's residence before anyone else and met the Daimyo.
Learning that the Uchiha sent the renowned Shisui of the Body Flicker from the Third Ninja War to protect him, the Daimyo was very pleased.
This showed the Uchiha's genuine concern for his safety, greatly improving the Daimyo's impression of the Uchiha and Kazuki.
Things should have settled here, but the Third Hokage was far from calm.
Because disbanding Root required moving all of Root's assets.
