Naruto: This Uchiha is too Evil - Chapter 28
This Dojutsu can only be awakened by transplanting another person’s Mangekyou Sharingan. The chance of success is not 100%, but the closer the blood relationship, the higher the success rate. The only known holder of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is Uchiha Madara. In the original Naruto series, another was added: Uchiha Sasuke.
The eyes of those with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan do not have blindness and reduce the physical strain on the user. Additionally, it allows the user to manifest the Complete Susanoo. The ocular power is also significantly enhanced, making it the perfect Sharingan. As for the Rinnegan, it is on a different level altogether, essentially transcending the Sharingan.
In terms of bloodline, Itsuki and Shisui are full brothers. Both possess the Mangekyou Sharingan, meeting the conditions for the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. If Madara and Sasuke could succeed, Itsuki believed his luck wouldn’t be that bad. He was beautiful and kind-hearted, so he was sure he would succeed.
Hokage’s Office
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at Danzo with a dark expression. “Danzo, what exactly are you trying to do?”
Danzo coldly replied, “Hiruzen, everything I do is for Konoha.”
Hiruzen sneered, “Who believes that? Does Uchiha Fugaku believe it? Does Hyuga Hiashi believe it? Does Nara Shikaku believe it? Or… do I, Hiruzen Sarutobi, believe it?”
Damn it, listen to yourself. Even Akimichi Choza wouldn’t believe that. Danzo glared at Hiruzen coldly. “You don’t believe me?”
Hiruzen was at a loss for words. He had to admit, Danzo, you caught me off guard. He had overlooked the advantage of having a thick skin.
At this moment, saying he believed Danzo would make him look foolish. He said he didn’t think Danzo. Did he have to give up on Danzo?
Even though Shisui and Itsuki had lost their Sharingan within the Uchiha clan, the power Itsuki displayed still made Hiruzen uneasy. Shisui’s strength was not inferior. Moreover, Hiruzen wasn’t sure where those two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan were.
If the eyes were with Itsuki, Hiruzen would need to rely heavily on Danzo to counter the Uchiha. If the eyes were with Danzo… This guy would become even more dangerous, and Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami could be aimed at Hiruzen himself. For Konoha’s sake, Danzo would dare to slaughter the entire ninja world. Hiruzen knew him too well—Danzo was fully capable of it!
Hiruzen woodenly realized he was in a dangerous position. He was caught in the middle with the Uchiha in front and Danzo behind. He sighed deeply. “Danzo, the most crucial thing right now is to find out the whereabouts of the Mangekyou. Two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan, one of them Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami—do you want to experience it firsthand?”
Danzo’s expression turned cold. Who would want to be someone’s puppet? Especially someone as ambitious as Danzo, who believed the ninja world awaited his salvation!
“So, stay calm and don’t act impulsively,” Hiruzen said coldly. “Your attack on Uchiha Itsuki put us in a difficult position. You need to remain quiet for now.”
Danzo did not respond, choosing to remain silent. Following the attack on Uchiha Itsuki and Fugaku’s outrage, Hiruzen had to appease other discontented ninjas by stripping Danzo of his position as Hokage’s advisor and confining him to his residence for reflection. Such a punishment was a slap on the wrist.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Setsuna made a massive demand to Hiruzen for a large sum of money, ostensibly to appease Itsuki. Stripping Danzo of his advisory role and confining him wasn’t enough for the Uchiha. Hiruzen had no choice but to agree, squeezing the funds out of Root’s budget and partially from Anbu’s. This meant that Anbu and Root wouldn’t see any expansion for the next two years.
The attack on Itsuki had failed, costing Root over a dozen elite members, reducing their strength by a third. Combined with the budget cuts, Danzo was indeed hit hard. Consequently, Danzo’s icy gaze fell upon Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado.
Both of them looked pitifully at Hiruzen. Hiruzen remained silent. “What do you need so much money for? We need Danzo to deal with the Uchiha now. What else can you offer besides money? Can I rely on you to handle the Uchiha? Ha! Let the Uchiha laugh themselves to death?”
Seeing Hiruzen’s expression, Koharu and Homura felt a chill. They didn’t usually receive much, and now they had to bear part of the blame. What were they supposed to do? Seeing Danzo’s fierce expression, they had no choice but to accept it.
Thus, out of the seven parts taken from Root, Koharu, and Homura, each contributed two, making Root effectively contribute only three parts, equal to Anbu. It was a world where everyone got hurt.
At this moment, the Uchiha clan was equally restless. Fugaku knelt in his room like a statue. He had maintained this posture since returning from the hospital. After a while, a middle-aged Uchiha entered and whispered, “It’s confirmed. Uchiha Setsuna went to Y?hi Kurenai’s house.”
Kurenai was a Ch?nin, not someone the Uchiha clan leader should be concerned about, even if she was the daughter of Y?hi Shinku. However, that ordinary household now had an additional person—Uchiha Itsuki.
“How did I not know Uchiha Itsuki had any contact with Uchiha Setsuna?” Fugaku’s voice was icy. He kept a close eye on the movements of the upper echelons of the Uchiha clan, especially Setsuna, who had lived through Madara’s era and was the most restless member of the Uchiha. Despite being put down multiple times, he always rose again, each time jumping higher.
Itsuki’s usual antics could be dismissed as mischief, but who dared to ignore him? He was the youngest Jonin of the Uchiha clan. This title alone was enough to draw attention. He was also the grandson of Uchiha Kagami, someone many in the clan owed a favor. They wouldn’t follow Itsuki’s orders but would be more tolerant of him.
Moreover, Itsuki had crossed paths with Danzo several times, forcing Danzo to chase him with a knife, yet he remained unscathed. Do you think Danzo is lenient? Including Hiruzen, they all wanted him dead. These factors have already made Fugaku pay attention to Itsuki.
Today, Itsuki’s performance had been astonishing. Ruthlessly and efficiently, he had wiped out over ten Root members, leaving Danzo no choice but to accept the loss. Fugaku couldn’t help but admire him. But why was he in contact with Setsuna?
Fugaku’s brows furrowed deeply.
