Clan Head Ketsuna, there's still an empty seat here. If you don't mind, please sit for a while.
Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru approach, the boy spoke enthusiastically.
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded and asked, feigning curiosity, "Kid, what's your name?"
The boy paused, and memories of what Uchiha Tekka had once told him about Uchiha Yuzuru surfaced in his mind.
Just as Big Brother Tekka said, Clan Head Ketsuna's personality is a bit difficult.
Thinking this, the boy said earnestly, "Clan Head Ketsuna, I'm not a kid. My name is Shisui."
"Uchiha Shisui."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yuzuru stroked his chin.
Indeed, he hadn't mistaken him. This little boy in front of him was Uchiha Shisui, who had activated the "Strongest Genjutsu," Kotoamatsukami, in the original story.
Like Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Shisui's talent was also very high.
At a very young age, he earned the moniker "Shisui of the Body Flicker" on the battlefield against the Hidden Mist Village.
In terms of genjutsu, he was no worse than Uchiha Itachi. A single glance was enough to scare Ao, who had activated his Byakugan, into abandoning his mission and fleeing in terror.
It's a pity he was brainwashed by Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi, becoming a naive fool, ultimately losing both his eyes and jumping off a cliff to commit suicide.
Even at the very end, Yakushi Kabuto, known as the "Ninja World's Dream Maker," couldn't find his body to reanimate him with Edo Tensei.
It was truly tragic.
"Shisui, how old are you?" Uchiha Yuzuru became somewhat interested and started chatting with Uchiha Shisui.
At the same time, his gaze fell on the skewers of three-colored dango in front of him.
"Clan Head Ketsuna, I am already five years old."
Sensing Uchiha Yuzuru's gaze, Uchiha Shisui subtly pulled the three-colored dango closer to himself.
Uchiha Yuzuru was a bit speechless and said, "Shisui, you're a bit protective of your food."
"No, I'm not." Uchiha Shisui shook his head. "Big Brother Tekka said that you used to always snatch his food, so he told me to protect my food carefully if I ever met you."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yuzuru's mouth twitched.
His reputation was being slandered!
When he met Uchiha Tekka again, he would definitely teach that scoundrel a good lesson.
Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru fall silent, Uchiha Shisui stuck out his tongue, a little embarrassed.
He had accidentally blurted out what was on his mind.
He took out a skewer of three-colored dango and placed it in front of Uchiha Yuzuru: "Clan Head Ketsuna, here you go."
"You can ask me for more after you finish this one."
Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head with a laugh, but he didn't actually argue with a five-year-old child.
After waiting a while longer, Uchiha Yuzuru's dango was also served.
While eating his dango, he casually asked, "Shisui, are you happy living in the Village?"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Shisui's face broke into a simple, honest smile: "I'm happy! Everyone treats me very well."
"The teachers and classmates at the Ninja Academy all really like me, and they speak so nicely. I love it here."
Uchiha Yuzuru was not surprised by Uchiha Shisui's answer.
Even Uchiha Obito could become a prominent figure in the Hidden Cloud Village, let alone a Genius like Uchiha Shisui.
The grievances the Uchiha Clan suffered in the original story could probably only be perpetrated by those ingrates of Konoha.
"Oh, right, Clan Head Ketsuna." Uchiha Shisui asked curiously, "Why did you lead our Uchiha Clan away from Konoha back then?"
When they left Konoha, Uchiha Shisui was less than two years old, so he had no impression of Konoha.
His only understanding of Konoha was that the Village was originally founded by the Uchiha Clan.
So he was very curious why Clan Head Ketsuna would lead everyone to leave the Village they had founded and relocate the entire Clan to the Hidden Cloud Village.
Uchiha Yuzuru took a bite of dango and said indifferently, "Konoha is not like the Hidden Cloud Village. The people there were very hostile towards our Uchiha Clan."
"They feared our power and considered us a potential unstable element."
"The Konoha Village's higher-ups built a prison next to our Clan territory, and under the guise of monitoring prisoners, they monitored every move of our Uchiha Clan twenty-four hours a day."
"The phrase they most often said was that we are the innately evil Uchiha..."
Uchiha Yuzuru hadn't finished speaking when he saw Uchiha Shisui suddenly stand up.
Two lines of hot tears streamed from his eyes, and he pouted indignantly, saying angrily, "We were the ones who founded Konoha. Even if they're not grateful, how can they say such things about us?"
"Our Clan members are clearly all so good, and all our companions in the Village are willing to be friends with us."
"We are not an evil Clan; the hearts of our Clan members are full of love!"
Uchiha Shisui's reaction was somewhat beyond Uchiha Yuzuru's expectation. He had only stated a fact, so why was this guy so upset?
But before he could say anything more, something even more shocking happened to Uchiha Yuzuru.
Uchiha Shisui's dark eyes turned blood red, and a single tomoe slowly rotated within them.
He awakened his Sharingan?!
Although it was only a one-tomoe Sharingan, Uchiha Shisui was only five years old!
After the initial shock, Uchiha Yuzuru understood.
Because of his relationship with the Third Raikage, the Hidden Cloud Village and the Uchiha Clan had always been in a honeymoon period.
Uchiha Shisui, as a Genius young man of the Uchiha Clan, could be said to have grown up in a honey pot.
Not only did he live a life of abundance, but everyone he met was also enthusiastic and kind.
Even at the Ninja Academy, he was like a star surrounded by others.
In this situation, Uchiha Shisui's originally somewhat naive personality was directly nurtured into a fragile heart... One could only say that things are unpredictable.
Uchiha Shisui hadn't noticed his own change yet. He raised his arm to wipe away his tears, his eyes filled with determination.
"Clan Head Ketsuna, I must explain clearly to those people in Konoha that our Uchiha Clan is not at all what they think we are!"
Uchiha Yuzuru smiled and handed Uchiha Shisui a skewer of three-colored dango: "Shisui, what do you plan to do then?"
If I could reason with those guys in Konoha, I wouldn't have gone to all this trouble to lead the Uchiha Clan to the Hidden Cloud Village.
After seeing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, Uchiha Shisui said in a deep voice, "Big Brother Obito once told me that you told him that without power, you can't do anything."
"So I must gain enough power so that I can make those guys in Konoha sit down calmly and listen to me."
"What if they still don't listen?"
"Then, as you said at the Clan meeting, make them all disappear. Incurable people have no need to exist in this world."
Uchiha Yuzuru gave a thumbs up: "Good, very spirited! I support you!"
Indeed, the environment one grows up in is truly important. Compared to his naive and saintly personality in the original story, the current Uchiha Shisui is simply too likable.
