The young man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and the tear trough extending from the nose makes him look a little sad no matter what expression he shows. His straight black hair hangs on both sides. He kneels on one knee, with his fist in front of him, and the ANBU mask is draped on the side of his face. Behind him is a standard short blade.

Under the dark gray-brown tactical vest, a red and white fan pattern was exposed, which was the emblem of the Uchiha clan, the top family in Konoha.

"Hokage-sama, you are looking for me." Itachi lowered his eyes and looked at the floor.

"Takizawa Yamaaki is dead. He used to be your subordinate." The third generation turned his back to him and looked out the window at Konoha Street. The smoke followed the wind blowing from outside the glass gap and rose to the ceiling. "Someone said He was killed because he ran into the Uchiha clan's plot, what do you think?"

"I have no idea."

After hearing this answer, Sandai turned around and looked at the young man in front of him. The expression on his face seemed to be disappointment and relief. He shook his head:

Then he clenched his fists.

"Is it Hinata Ningqi again?" The third generation reacted and shook his head gently.

"Who do you think the murderer might be?" Sandai asked.

How did you become the leader of the Hyuga clan!

"Say it next time every time..."

"I said before that you can look at everything from the Hokage's position. You do have this ability... However, you don't have to put so much pressure on yourself. I believe in you. There is no one else around, so you don't have to worry about anything. Now, Tell me what you really think."

Shaking his head, he bypassed the group of people and continued walking forward.

The office was quiet for a long time.

As Itachi walked on the streets of the clan, he could clearly feel that this feeling of depression, like a boiling kettle, was getting stronger and stronger.

When I got home, I didn't see my father. Instead, after hearing the sound of the door opening, 7-year-old Sasuke ran over quickly and threw himself on his lap.

Similar rejection from Konoha's top brass is not limited to geographical marginalization, but also manifests itself in the exclusion of Konoha's top power structure.

The Uchiha clan was once one of the founders of the Konoha Ninja Village, but now it has been reduced to only occupying seats in the Konoha Security Forces. Not to mention the decision-making level, anyone can get in even the ANBU. The department also secretly rejected the applications of many Uchiha people. In recent years, only a very few people such as Itachi and Shisui passed the assessment and successfully integrated.

Itachi returned to the clan in the afternoon.

But it also shows that the murderer behind the Hyuga separation cases has still not been found. He killed Takizawa Yamaaki, and is still lurking behind Uchiha and Konoha to add fuel to the flames, trying to detonate the powder keg of Konoha and Uchiha.

Since reporting the Uchiha clan's conspiracy to the top management of Konoha, Itachi has been acting as a double agent, lurking within the Uchiha clan to collect information. Yamaaki may have been killed by the Uchiha clan, and only he can tell the truth. Give the most accurate answer.

Uchiha Inari and his men blocked Itachi's path and asked in a cold voice.

After explaining to Lord Hokage why the rebellion of the Uchiha clan had reached an irreversible point, the old man who had presided over the overall situation of Konoha for more than ten years was quiet for a long time. In the end, he said nothing and waved his hand to Itachi. gone back.

It is good to rule out the possibility of Uchiha killing Takizawa Yamaaki. This means that the Uchiha clan has not reached the point where things are irreversible, and there is still a chance for peace between Konoha and Uchiha.

Even though the third generation was very scheming, he couldn't help but be annoyed by this chaotic situation. If he hadn't already known that Hinata and Rizu were planning to hold a clan meeting next week to discuss response matters, he would have dragged Rizu over and scolded him.

"Hey, let me ask you something!"

"I will definitely play with you next time."

A smile appeared on Itachi's face, and he held his middle finger between his index fingers and pointed at Sasuke's forehead.

He turned around and left, leaving Sasuke at the entrance, covering his forehead and pouting indignantly.

"I think so too... Even in such a tense situation between Konoha and Uchiha, there are still people behind it." The third generation put down his cigarette stick and sighed.

——Did Takizawa Yamaaki get any important clues?

"Hey, Itachi."

"Did you go and tell the truth?"

"Although the Uchiha clan has always harbored ill will toward other ninja clans in Konoha, as far as this matter is concerned...it is framed." Itachi slowly raised his head.

"so."

Can it still be redeemed?

Itachi closed his eyes.

The third generation took a sip of the pipe and did not show his disappointment. Itachi was now fully devoted to the task of monitoring Uchiha and had no interaction with Ning Qi. Naturally, it was impossible to make any inferences. He did not Let’s continue talking about this topic, but return to this topic:

"Can the relationship between Konoha and Uchiha be restored?"

"What's the reason?"

Itachi glanced at him, then lowered his head silently.

There seems to be no reason.

Isolation is all-encompassing.

so.

Itachi looked at them calmly.

Although the person involved is extremely pessimistic about the subsequent development of the situation, this is not the first time he has expressed pessimism to the third generation. The fact is that the Uchiha clan has not yet truly unified within the clan, and the situation still does not seem to be enough to make a decision. .

So, from Sarutobi's point of view, we can still wait.

Itachi once submitted a report, in which he identified Ning Qi as the biggest suspect in the murder of Hyuga Tokuma and other members of the Hyuga branch. Now, Takizawa Yamaaki, who was investigating Tokuma's murder, is dead. If he hadn't been because of He was killed when he broke up the Uchiha conspiracy. Naturally, he was killed while investigating the Hyuga family separation case.

This was the scene that Itachi could most clearly foresee while standing in the crater.

It's just speculation that continues inertia.

Can the relationship between Konoha and Uchiha be restored?

Isn’t the Hyuga branch a human being?

Do you not care about so many things happening to so many people? !

Therefore, the answer he can give has actually not changed since two years ago:

"Should...can't."

The child sat down on the ground with a cry.

Using a little trick, Uchiha Itachi learned from Inohuo the place where the clan members secretly gathered. When he rushed there, the leader Uchiha Fugaku was speaking. From this position, it was very clear to eavesdrop:

"...When the Hyuga clan holds a clan meeting, Konoha's side has no Byakugan detection, which is a perfect opportunity to launch an attack!"

Itachi opened his mouth slightly.

The Uchiha clan is located in the northwest corner of the Konoha Ninja Village. For this former No. 1 ninja clan in Konoha, being moved from the core of Konoha to such a remote corner is considered by most Uchiha clan members. A humiliation.

Whether it was Shisui two years ago or him now, the situation he faces seems to have never changed. The Uchiha clan has extremely rich spiritual emotions, but this does not seem to be a blessing.

Hatred is spreading, and the ambitions of the Uchiha clan are expanding. The clansmen will clamor to destroy Konoha for the slightest injustice. The accumulated dissatisfaction is like a volcano. Sooner or later, one day it will erupt, and the volcano will destroy the entire Konoha.

"Where did you go today?"

"Brother, I got an A in the ninja school test today," Sasuke happily showed him the paper in his hand, "You promised me before that as long as I get an A, you will play with me!"

The suffocating feeling of being kept away from everyone for no reason, or even being surrounded by hostile eyes, is making most of the Uchiha people fall into a state of anxiety and mania.

These people have been completely blinded by hatred and cannot see clearly the road ahead.

No more.

The volcano has decided to erupt.
