Chapter 69

The Great Elder stood up in shock, "Tiehuo, where did your eyes go?!"

Tiehuo pursed his lips, his body trembling slightly, "My Sharingan was dug out by someone!"

What?!

The Uchiha in the secret room were suddenly furious.

The Great Elder roared: "Who is it? Tell us, and see if I don't slaughter him!"

Second Elder: "Daring to dig out the Sharingan, no matter who he is, he's dead!"

Third Elder: "Is it the Hokage or Danzo?!"

Itachi's face also showed shock.

He also suspected in his heart that it was done by the Hidden Leaf higher-ups.

But if this was the case, then the Uchiha, who had just lost Shisui, would probably go completely berserk!

War would be unavoidable!

What exactly is going on?

Itachi was incredibly anxious in his heart.

Tiehuo: "It's Shi Yuan!"

. . 0

It's him?

Itachi's pupils shrank, his heart unable to calm down.

"Why did Shi Yuan dig out Tiehuo's Sharingan? What exactly does this guy want to do?!"

Looking at Tiehuo's expression, which was trying hard to suppress certain emotions, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

But others didn't know who Shi Yuan was at all, and one by one they were shouting angrily to go and kill Shi Yuan.

Tiehuo continued: "And before my Sharingan was dug out, I had already awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Boom!

This time, the whole secret room completely exploded.

They had just lost Shisui, who had awakened the Mangekyo.

Now someone had finally awakened the Mangekyo again, and they hadn't even had time to be happy, but the eyes were actually dug out!

It was simply looking for death!!!

"Kill him, must kill Shi Yuan and take back the Mangekyo!"

"Provoking our Uchiha clan, he's dead!"

"Tiehuo, tell us where he is?"

Public indignation!

No one was not angry!

Since Shisui's death, the interior of the Uchiha had been very depressed, like a powder keg that would ignite at any moment.

Now, it was ignited!

Itachi looked at Tiehuo blankly, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Tiehuo actually awakened the Mangekyo, and it was taken away by Shi Yuan?! Could it be that he came specifically for the Mangekyo Sharingan?"

Thinking that he had been face-to-face with Shi Yuan not long ago, he couldn't help but have lingering fears.

But his heart was still full of doubts.

He knew the conditions for awakening the Mangekyo very well; nothing major had happened in the clan recently, so how did Tiehuo awaken it?

Could it be... Shi Yuan?!

Itachi's pupils shrank, and he held his breath.

Itachi stared at Tiehuo without blinking.

"My Mangekyo Sharingan was also awakened with Shi Yuan's help!"

Tiehuo's voice was not loud.

But as the words fell, the entire secret room became dead silent.

Itachi's eyes widened instantly.

It really was him!

The Great Elder stared at him blankly, "What did Itachi just say?"

Tiehuo said with some excitement: "I said my Mangekyo was also awakened with Shi Yuan's help!"

"This... what exactly is going on? Why could Shi Yuan help Itachi awaken the Mangekyo? How did he do it?! And why did he dig out your Mangekyo?"

The Great Elder and others asked hurriedly.

Tiehuo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then told the story from when he saw Shi Yuan and Itachi contact, to the matter of the Mangekyo being dug out.

Finally, Tiehuo said: "The Great Elder can check my memory to verify the truth."

After Fugaku guaranteed that what Tiehuo said was all true, the three elders checked Tiehuo's memory one by one and finally confirmed it.

"It's true, Shi Yuan can let us awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Suddenly, the entire secret room boiled over.

There were those cursing Shi Yuan, those who were excited, and those who wanted to find Shi Yuan to awaken the Mangekyo.

After all, this was the Mangekyo; no Uchiha could resist this temptation, even if the price was extremely terrifying!

So much so that even the news that Fugaku had awakened the Mangekyo, which should have been very shocking, was not mentioned by anyone at this moment.

The Great Elder looked at Fugaku and asked unwillingly: "Clan Leader, is it that we can only be Shi Yuan's puppets if we want to awaken the Mangekyo?"

Fugaku nodded with a bitter face.

If there was any other way, how could the proud Uchiha bow their heads.

Fugaku took a deep breath and said coldly:

"Our conflict with the Hidden Leaf higher-ups is already very serious; once they know that Shi Yuan can help us awaken the Mangekyo, it will greatly increase their wariness of the Uchiha, and the conflict will inevitably intensify; they may take action against us at any time."

"So we have no other choice now!"

Although the Great Elder and others were unwilling, they knew that what he said was the truth.

Fugaku looked at the crowd with different expressions and said solemnly:

"Everyone should understand the current situation of the Uchiha, but I will not force Itachi to make a choice."

"Itachi already know the price of awakening the Mangekyo Sharingan; whoever is willing to awaken the Mangekyo can come to me later."

The clan meeting was dismissed.

But those who attended the meeting could not calm down in their hearts; they needed to think carefully before making a decision.

Soon, only Fugaku and Itachi were left in the meeting room.

Fugaku said solemnly: "Itachi, Itachi also attended the clan meeting just now; tell me your thoughts now."

Itachi's expression was somewhat complex.

He didn't expect Fugaku to have already awakened the Mangekyo.

And now with Shi Yuan involved, the complexity of the whole thing had increased who knows how many times.

It was no longer something he could control.

He thought for a while and said: "Many people in the clan will definitely go to awaken the Mangekyo, but once the Hidden Leaf knows this information, it will inevitably clash with the Uchiha again."

"And those who pay a huge price to awaken the Mangekyo will definitely not let the Hidden Leaf higher-ups go."

"A coup... I'm afraid it will inevitably happen!"

After Itachi finished this sentence, he felt somewhat powerless.

Unless the Hidden Leaf higher-ups take action against the Uchiha immediately, this is the inevitable outcome.

But without sufficient reason, the Hidden Leaf higher-ups simply cannot take action against the Uchiha.

This is an unsolvable situation.

Fugaku nodded upon hearing this; although he hadn't deduced it, he also knew how dangerous the future would be, and said solemnly:

"Don't worry, I will make a deal with Shi Yuan and spare no cost to let Itachi awaken the Mangekyo!"

Itachi's expression became even more complex upon hearing this.

He had already awakened the Mangekyo, but he still didn't intend to tell anyone, slightly lowering his head, "Thank Itachi, Father!"
