Reborn into Naruto World with Tenseigan
chapter-218

For some reason, Shisui couldn’t bring himself to lie to Itachi.

It was just that Kuroto-san instructed him to not admit that he is Homusubi to anyone no matter what, so now he felt a bit regretful and worried as to how will Itachi react to this information.

Just when Shisui was silent and worried and didn’t know what to say, Itachi suddenly bowed deeply towards him.

Shisui was surprised and exclaimed, “Itachi, what are you…?”

Itachi did not lift his head and said seriously, “Shisui-san, you must not admit that you are Homusubi before Otou-sama!”

Shisui lifted up Itachi and asked, “Do you not hate me Itachi? I have betrayed both the clan and village! Attacked people of the clan!”

Itachi shook his head, “No Shisui-san, with the way the situation is developing between the clan and village, something needs to be done or else I am afraid…”

“But still, I have betrayed the clan and that can’t be changed!” – spoke Shisui with a guilty look.

“Maybe, but maybe it is better for some to survive even if few have to die for it, rather than all being dead? And both Uchiha Hideki and Uchiha Ryota were the radicals who would have led the clan to doom, so even if Amatsukami attacked them it was for the sake of the clan, besides you prevented Sasuke from being killed, otherwise how could have Sasuke survived?”

“I… I apologize that Sasuke had to go through that, we needed a witness but did not expect Sasuke to be the one to find us, so you know…” – Shisui said.

“It’s alright Shisui-san!” – Itachi said.

Shisui was very relieved and the burden he felt was also relieved somewhat.

At this moment Shisui asked, “By the way Itachi, how did you conclude that I am Homusubi? Was it because of the rumors or something other?”

Itachi said, “Before everything, I was doubtful whether you were really defeated by Amatsukami as everyone says, not to mention Kuroto-san was also with you, and you always say that Kuroto-san is stronger than you so it was hard to believe. And finally, the fact that Sasuke was not killed made me believe it. Speaking of, I am really curious about what kind of organization Amatsukami is!?”

Shisui shook his head helplessly, “For the time being I can’t disclose anything about Amatsukami with you, in the first place I, myself am not very much aware of Amatsukami, but you can rest assured that Amatsukami has no ill will towards either the village or the Uchiha clan.”

“I understand.” – Itachi nodded.

At this time Shisui said with an earnest look, “Thanks a lot Itachi, with what you have said… I… am relieved… it… it means a lot to me!”

Itachi nodded with a smile and said, “Let’s go now; if we delay anymore, Otou-sama will get a little impatient out of waiting.”

Shisui nodded and both of them moved towards the direction of the Uchiha Clan and soon arrived at the Patriarch’s mansion.

Walking into the courtyard, both of them arrived before Uchiha Fugaku.

Sitting in the hall, Fugaku lift his head and glanced at Itachi who was accompanying Shisui and said in a deep voice, “Itachi leave, I have something to discuss with Shisui!”

Itachi did not say anything and after a courteous bow to his father, he silently left the hall.

With just the two of them left, Fugaku signaled Shisui to sit.

At this time, Fugaku intently stared at Shisui and spoke, “You must have heard the rumors circulating throughout the village?”

Shisui nodded lightly, “Yes!”

Fugaku’s gaze was cold and he questioned, “Do you have anything to say in your defense?”

Shisui shook his head slightly.

Fugaku frowned and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Almost at the same moment as Fugaku activated the Mangekyou Sharingan, Shisui felt the world around him changed and he was back to the same elusive world, with white floor and black sky and various Kanji symbols floating around.

It was again the Yin-Yang Prison World.

At the same time, Uchiha Fugaku’s Mangekyou Sharingan pattern appeared in the sky above his head, and the blacks and whites of the world started invading his soul.

Suddenly a cold omnipotent voice sounded, “Uchiha Shisui, I want your explanation, the Uchiha Clan wants your explanation!”

However, Shisui followed Kuroto’s instructions and under Uchiha Fugaku’s Mangekyou Sharingan ability, he did not pose any resistance and allowed the blacks and whites to continuously invade his body.

Slowly but steadily everything about him also started changing as if he was becoming an integral part of this world.

Shisui’s attitude of posing no resistance surprised Uchiha Fugaku, this was clearly contrary to his expectations, he asked with a frown, “Why do you not resist?”

Shisui said, “Why should I resist? I know that Patriarch will not hurt me!”

Hearing Shisui’s words, Fugaku was silent and after a bit of consideration he ordered, “From now on, you are to not take a single step out of the Clan grounds without my permission, is that clear!?”

Shisui asked, “But what about my Anbu duties?”

Fugaku said in an unquestionable tone, “Your application for being ill will be delivered to Sandaime-sama, I believe he will be kind enough to give you a vacation to recover your health!”

Shisui was helpless and nodded his head.

Fugaku released Shisui from the Ying-Yang Prison world and said while waving his hand, “Alright, you are dismissed!”

Shisui bowed to Fugaku and quietly left the hall.

As soon as Shisui left, Fugaku’s face was gloomy.

If before he was doubtful, then after this test now, Fugaku was almost sure that Uchiha Shisui is Homusubi!

It is because the fact that he has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan is not known by anyone in the clan or village, but when Fugaku used his Mangekyou Technique on Shisui, Shisui was not surprised at the fact that Fugaku has Mangekyou Sharingan, nor was he surprised at Fugaku’s Dojutsu.

This clearly implies that Shisui has already experienced his Mangekyou Dojutsu, and the first time, Fugaku used Yin-Yang Prison World was against the two members of Amatsukami.

Therefore, Fugaku can be sure that Shisui is Homusubi, it’s just that he has no evidence to prove this.

But even evidence aside, Fugaku can’t understand how could someone like Shisui choose to join Amatsukami and betray both the clan and the village?

If Shisui had chosen the Clan over the village, Fugaku would have been happy, but even if Shisui had chosen the village over the clan, Fugaku would have been saddened and a bit angered but not so shocked, however, Shisui chose neither and joined Amatsukami?

The other thing he can’t figure out is the objective of Amatsukami. Just what do they intend to do?

Will a mercenary organization really choose to offend a great shinobi village, such a Konoha?

Because if they do so, there will be subsequent consequences, are they not afraid?

So, the fact that Amatsukami attacked the Kumogakure delegation and offended Konoha and Kumo, and now that they have kidnapped two members of the Uchiha Clan, offending Konoha and threatened the Uchiha Clan, just what are their intentions of doing this all?

No matter how much he thinks about it, Fugaku can’t figure it out and has been confused because of all this!

…

The news of Uchiha Shisui taking a temporary leave from the Anbu department because of illness soon reached Shimura Danzo’s ears.

Danzo obviously understood that this so-called ‘illness’ is just a lame excuse used by the Uchiha Patriarch to keep Uchiha Shisui under House Arrest.

But this result was out of his estimation.

According to what he predicted, after the rumors were fermented in the village, the arrogant Uchiha Clan will jump out and try to clarify the matter to prove Shisui’s innocence. At that time, in the name of the commander responsible for the annihilation of Amatsukami, he will conduct a complete inquiry and take that chance to take control of the situation and seize away Shisui’s Mangekyou Sharingan to get his hands on Kotoamatsukami.

He did not expect that as soon as rumors started to have some effect, Uchiha Fugaku chose to put Uchiha Shisui under House Arrest, and Danzo had no chance to carry out his plan.

‘Even the Uchiha Clan can see through things?’ – thought Danzo in an impressed manner.

Danzo was obviously surprised that the Uchiha Clan tried to protect Uchiha Shisui in this manner, even when Shisui was a suspect of being Homusubi!

…

Outside Uchiha Clan.

Might Guy shook his head helplessly and said to Kakashi and Kuroto, “The Uchiha clansmen are still not allowing us to enter in and see Shisui.”

Kuroto was obviously informed by Shisui about everything that happened and said, “Let him rest, for now, I believe Shisui will contact us when he is ready.”

Kakashi nodded.

The rumors in the village have been quite troubling so Kakashi was also worried about Shisui, he is not sure whether Shisui is really Homusubi but as the captain of Anbu Team-11, Kakashi had to trust his teammates, and as long as, Shisui was in the Uchiha Clan, there should be no problem in regards to his safety.

With that, the three of them left.

That night nobody would have expected Uchiha Fugaku to lead the elites of the Konoha Military Police Force to chase after Amatsukami.

And now the situation has started to get troublesome.
