Chapter 256 Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyō

Chapter 256 Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyō

After his vision became clear, Lu Li unexpectedly discovered that the fingers of the Outer Path Statue were very empty this time. Apart from himself, there were only Nagato and Konan.

What happened? No one else was invited to the meeting? Did the leader ask me to have a private chat?

"Natural Disaster, don't look at me anymore. I called you here this time because I have a special mission for you."

Nagato manipulated Pain and spoke.

Just half an hour ago, Zetsu delivered a message to him, it was a message from Uchiha Madara.

It is said that there is an urgent mission related to Konoha that requires a strong member to handle. Considering that Zai and Orochimaru are closest to the Land of Fire, and Zai is the strongest one, it is most appropriate to let him do it.

Nagato himself was very disgusted with this mission because the target of the mission was Danzo Shimura, the leader of the Root of Konoha and the culprit who caused Yahiko's death.

But Uchiha Madara said that Danzo had important information related to the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and wanted to organize a deal with them. After weighing it, Nagato felt that he would kill Danzo sooner or later, so it would be better to see if there was any important information first.

Anyway, Natural Disaster is very powerful, so he is not worried that he will capsize in Konoha. If something really happens, he believes that Natural Disaster can still escape.

"Chief, please speak."

Lu Li smelled something unusual during this meeting.

"You will immediately go to Konoha. At midnight three days later, you will meet with the leader of the Root, Danzo Shimura, in the woods southeast of Konoha and collect his information about the Nine-Tails."

Nagato gave the order. Although the plan to collect the tailed beasts was suspended, the Nine-Tail was the most difficult target, and there was no harm in knowing its information in advance.

"Going to Konoha? To meet Danzo?"

Lu Li felt strange and wondered what was going on.

"Any questions?"

Seeing Lu Li pondering, Nagato spoke.

If it were any other group, and Uchiha Madara hinted at him to send one person, he would definitely be suspicious, but in this group of Calamity, Orochimaru was always lazy and didn't go on missions, and Calamity was the only one doing it, and he had become accustomed to this situation.

"Nothing, but you should know the grudge between me and Danzo, right? If I can't control myself and kill him after getting the information, don't blame me for going too far."

Lu Li gave Nagato a shot of prevention first.

Tiandao was silent for a moment, then nodded. "It's up to you what you do after completing the mission, just don't make too much noise."

It's not that he doesn't want Danzo to die, he just wants to kill him with his own hands. However, he also knows the grudge between Tianzai and Danzo. There is no reason to dissuade him at this time, and it will expose his true identity instead.

This meeting came suddenly and ended quickly. After Lu Li took on the task, the illusion body technique was lifted.

"Senior, what's going on?"

Uchiha Itachi asked nervously. He had come to understand the horror of Akatsuki these days. Even a powerful ninja like his senior had devoted himself to Akatsuki, which showed how strong its hidden power was.

According to the senior, Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, is also in the Akatsuki organization and will cooperate with them in the plan to destroy Konoha.

Apart from that, all other members of Akatsuki are ruthless Kage-level characters, so he is also very curious about how powerful the leader of Akatsuki is.

"Pein gave me new instructions. It's very strange. He asked me to meet Danzo."

Lu Li groaned, "But I feel like he doesn't seem to know that I'm already in Konoha."

He couldn't casually say things that he shouldn't know. For example, Obito hadn't appeared openly in the Akatsuki organization yet, and no one except Nagato and Konan had seen him, so he didn't tell Itachi that the masked man was a member of the Akatsuki organization.

Likewise, he couldn't say that he felt this matter had anything to do with Obito.

After all, Danzo is Nagato's enemy, so it is very strange for Nagato to issue this task. It could only be Obito's request, who used Nagato's hand to issue the task.

"Senior, are you going to take action when you meet Danzo?"

Uchiha Itachi couldn't think so much. Judging from the current intelligence in the ninja world, he still felt that the Akatsuki organization was quite reliable. At least it was impossible for the leader of the organization to sell out members.

"Of course we have to do it. Pein also said that you can follow me after you get the information. I don't think it will be a big deal. Anyway, we are going to take action against Konoha. What else do I have to worry about?"

Lu Li said, turning around and walking out of the ancestral hall, "Let's leave it at that for tonight. Remember the countermeasures we discussed before."

…………

In Konoha Village, outside Naruto's house, the Third Hokage stood there in casual clothes and knocked on the door.

After several knocks on the door, no one came to open it, which made the third generation's expression gloomy.

The Anbu following him in the dark also noticed that the Hokage was in a very bad mood. He used the instant body-flickering technique to move to the other side, and looked through the window, and found that Naruto was lying on the bed, covering his ears.

"Lord Hokage..."

The Anbu came back and reported, but before he could finish he was interrupted by the Sandaime who raised his hand.

"Let's go back."

The Third Hokage sighed. He knew that Naruto would not see him tonight. Even if he found a way to open the door and go in, Naruto would not be able to listen to him at this moment.

We can only wait for Naruto to calm down and talk about it in two days.

On the way back, the Third Hokage had to consider the worst case scenario. If he really couldn't change Naruto's will, he would really have to trouble Danzo to take action.

The only problem was that he was not sure whether his old friend Danzo could govern Konoha Village well after becoming Hokage.

…………

The next morning, outside the Uchiha clan territory, a Root messenger appeared behind Uchiha Itachi who had just finished his morning exercise. "What do you want from me?"

Itachi came over and said this expressionlessly, but he was actually very alert inside.

Brother Shisui learned from previous experience. When he saw the roots, he thought the other party was planning something bad.

"Counselor Elder, that lord wants to meet with you to discuss matters concerning the Uchiha clan."

The Root said that because of the Seal of the Root of Tongue Eradication, they could not say anything related to Danzo, and unless necessary, they would even avoid mentioning his name.

Itachi originally wanted to say that he had nothing to discuss with Danzo, and that Brother Shisui was a lesson learned. Did he really think he was a fool?
But he suddenly remembered what Senior Lu Li had told him, and after a moment's thought, he said, "Let me think about it for a few days, you go back first."

Seeing that Uchiha Itachi did not agree directly but did not refuse outright, the Root said no more and left to report to Danzo.

"Brother, who is he? Anbu? He looks weird."

A childish voice sounded behind Uchiha Itachi, causing his gloomy eyes to turn into bright sunshine.

"Sasuke, stay away from people dressed like this in the future."

Itachi turned around and looked at Sasuke who was carrying the ninja tool bag and touched Sasuke's head. He didn't want Sasuke to have anything to do with the Root.

"Brother, let's go. You promised me that you would practice shuriken with me today."

Sasuke said excitedly.

Itachi was about to nod, but he saw his father walking towards him from behind. It was obvious that he had something to discuss with him, so he could only nod Sasuke's forehead helplessly, "Sorry, Sasuke, maybe next time."

After a while, the father and son came into the secret room.

"Itachi, I'll be frank with you, are you in cahoots with Lu Li?"

As soon as Uchiha Fugaku opened his mouth, Itachi's heart tensed up.

You have to know that for the confidentiality of the plan and considering Senior Lu's safety, he didn't tell anyone about Lu Li.

Even when the plan to destroy the Konoha was approaching, he only analyzed with his father the recent unrest in the ninja world, the natural disasters that had severely damaged Kirigakure, and the possibility of an attack on Konoha that had expelled him, and asked his father not to slack off these days and to train the elites of the clan.

Itachi felt that his consideration was correct. After all, not everyone could keep things in their hearts like he did. Once the Muye destruction plan and Senior Lu's affairs were known by the tribe members, many variables would arise.

Even if he is your own father, he may not be able to keep secrets well, and his position is difficult to understand.

The best way to get the actors to perform perfectly is to make them not know that they are acting, and Itachi feels that the Uchiha clan just needs to fight the enemy as usual and play their part in the Muye destruction plan.

Anyway, Senior Lu is very powerful, and with him as an insider, his life will not be in danger.

But now his father called out Lu Li's name, which confused him. He wondered if his father had discovered his meeting with Lu Li last night?

"Itachi, your expression is very calm, but your eyes betray you. Your mental state training is not yet up to par."

Uchiha Fugaku said, "Don't guess, I have no evidence, but I have seen a glimpse of the future."

Itachi came back to his senses and realized something, "Father, is it your Mangekyō ability?"

Uchiha Fugaku nodded, "Yes, why do you think I agreed with your plan to vigorously promote marriages among clan members? It's because I found that the future has changed, and according to this plan, the Uchiha clan will develop in a better direction."

As he spoke, the three-magatama Sharingan in his eyes rotated and turned into a shuriken shape with a hollow interior, which was quite magnificent.

"My Mangekyō Sharingan can predict part of the future, but not the entire world. It is limited to a certain event or a certain area. You were once confused as to why I didn't let my people know that I had the Mangekyō and why I hesitated and didn't launch a coup. It was because I saw a bad outcome."

Fugaku explains his abilities and uses a genjutsu on Itachi.

Itachi was surprised to find that when his father used illusion, he was unable to counter it immediately. His father's attainments in illusion were actually better than his! ?
Because he knew that his father would not harm him at this time, he did not try to dispel the illusion, but watched the scenes shown by his father in the illusion.

In the scene, other members of the Uchiha clan learned that their father had opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, and then they captured the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Naruto, and then the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body went berserk.

Later, his father controlled the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha Village. In this battle, many members of the Uchiha clan died, and then Konoha Village was destroyed.

The illusion ended and the scene returned to reality. Fugaku looked at Itachi and said, "This is the original result, so I won't expose my ability and give rise to the ambitions of my clan members."

"Father, you..."

Itachi's tone was complicated.

"Do you think I really want a coup? I also don't want the village to be destroyed. Otherwise, if we start a war, we will win."

Fugaku said, "But that was only a miserable victory. I believe that soon we, who have been severely damaged, and the ruins of Konoha, will be buried by other ninja villages."

Itachi now understood why his father neither exposed the Mangekyō nor held meetings all day to delay the matter, because his father, like himself, did not want to go to war with Konoha.

Indeed, what was said on the stone tablet was correct. The Sharingan was the eye that reflected the soul, and everyone's inner desires would produce different Mangekyo abilities.

Brother Shisui hopes to change the village's view of the Uchiha clan, or change the clan members' desire to rebel, so he awakened Kotoamatsukami.

As the head of the family, my father was swept up in the general trend and managed the family carefully, fearing that a wrong decision would lead the family into an irretrievable situation. He hoped to see the way forward clearly, and thus this kaleidoscope ability was born.

What about himself? Why did he awaken Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu?

"Father... I don't mean to collude with the rebel ninja to harm the village, but right now, this is the only way to highlight the importance of the family to Konoha."

Itachi came back to his senses and explained to his father.
