Chapter 694: A Fool's Focus Is Always Unconventional

Uchiha Fugao and Itachi Uchiha: "……"

Does this guy even know what he's actually saying!

The Uchiha and the Village reached a reconciliation, and the other side seemed quite disappointed.

"What do you mean!"

Uchiha Fugao slammed the table in anger, and the chakra he had previously restrained erupted again.

This guy in front of us is definitely here to pick a fight!

The Uchiha and the Village barely managed to reconcile, and right away someone came to cause trouble.

It seems the Village's higher-ups don't trust the Uchiha.

In his view, the two people before him must be sent by the Third Hokage Faction to test him.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "……"

He already knows his good brother's IQ isn't high; he can't even ask a question clearly.

To prevent Lian Ye from staying silent and causing the conflict to explode completely.

He can only start speaking to explain.

"Uchiha Clan Leader, I think you misunderstood," Zhi Cun Tuan Zang said. "My brother means the reason why the Uchiha and the Village reached a reconciliation."

The Uchiha attempted a coup, and the Hokage could not just stand by.

Both sides were almost at a point of endless, unending conflict; logically, such a reconciliation shouldn't be that easy.

Something must have happened in there...

Upon hearing that, Uchiha Fugao's eyes flickered, and Itachi Uchiha subconsciously clenched the hand resting on his knee.

They simultaneously thought of the man who appeared that night.

"There's no particular reason," Uchiha Fugao said calmly. "The Uchiha and the Village didn't want to drag the conflict to an endless state, so I approached the Third Hokage and reached a reconciliation with the other side."

Lian Ye and Tuan Cang know Fugao is lying.

If he truly had such a mind, the Third Hokage would indeed have that much generosity.

In the first few timelines they traversed, the Uchiha wouldn't have been annihilated.

"Uchiha Fugao, you dishonest guy!"

Lian Ye activated his Three Tomoe Sharingan, saying somewhat helplessly.

"Since I'm also a member of the Uchiha, tell me exactly what happened."

Uchiha Fugao and Itachi Uchiha stared at the pair of Three Tomoe Sharingan, their faces showing a fleeting shock.

This guy is actually also a member of the Uchiha!

Yet they have never met each other within the clan...

"Even if you're a Uchiha, you have no right to haggle before the Clan Leader."

Uchiha Fugao's voice became serious.

Although he didn't know their exact identities, learning that Lian Ye is a Uchiha made him adopt the bearing of a Clan Leader.

Lian Ye: "……"

He just wants to know the reason; is it necessary to do it this way?

He shouldn't have come here to waste time!

If he had shown his power directly, Fugao likely wouldn't have concealed anything.

"I just want to know the answer."

Lian Ye withdrew his smile, clearly running out of patience.

Before his words finished, his Three Tomoe abruptly turned into a Kaleidoscope!

Uchiha Fugao and Itachi Uchiha were completely stunned.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan!

This guy also awakened those eyes!

Moreover, the Pupil Power Lian Ye displayed seemed far stronger than theirs.

"Now, you can tell me the reason, right?"

Uchiha Fugao was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright."

Since this guy awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, he indeed has the qualification to know the truth of the reconciliation.

After all, Uchiha members possessing those eyes are few, and recruiting them would become a powerful force for the clan.

If Konoha's higher-ups ever backtrack, their coup's success rate could rise dramatically.

Consequently, Uchiha Fugao recounted the events of that night in detail.

Lian Ye and Tuan Cang stared at each other.

Listening to Fugao's description, they both thought of one person.

Sasuke Uchiha!

To be precise, the Sasuke whose broken arm was healed by Orochimaru!

Now the situation is finally clear.

It turns out that during the Boruto era, Sasuke Uchiha and Boruto, using the dragon vein to return, happened to arrive at the time of Genocide Night by chance.

To make up for past regrets, they intervened in Genocide Night!

"So that's how it is."

Lian Ye nodded in realization; that made everything add up.

Since they now know the truth, they have no need to stay here.

"Sorry, I disturbed you."

Saying that, they and Tuan Cang stood up to leave.

"Wait!"

Uchiha Fugao saw this and instantly became displeased.

This guy really wants to leave.

He is not willing to let a clan member with a Kaleidoscope Sharingan leave.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan?!

Uchiha Fugao suddenly froze.

The Nine-Tails Incident might be this guy's doing!

The Pupil Power of a regular Three Tomoe Sharingan cannot reach the level needed to control the Nine-Tails.

Only a Kaleidoscope Sharingan can do that.

And at that time Itachi and Shisui had not awakened the Kaleidoscope, which means the Nine-Tails Incident might really involve Lian Ye!

The Uchiha were being ostracized; aside from their personalities, only the Nine-Tails Incident remained.

"Is there something?"

Lian Ye noticed Uchiha Fugao's face turning pale and then white, not understanding what had happened.

Why does this guy's complexion look so terrible?

Little does he know, he has already been identified by Fu Yue as the mastermind of the Nine-Tails Incident.

"Sir, you probably cannot leave."

Uchiha Fugao activated the Three Tomoe Sharingan, speaking coldly.

"I need you to give me an explanation!"

Lian Ye: "???"

Explanation? Explanation of what?

Is he pretending to be Fu Yue's friend, entering the house to drink tea and eat apples?

No way!

A dignified Uchiha Clan Leader, just eating something, shouldn't be that petty.

"I really didn't expect the Uchiha Clan Leader to be so petty."

Lian Ye helplessly pulled out a stack of silver notes, placed them on the table, and said speechlessly.

"This is the money for the fruit tea earlier; can we leave now?"

I really didn't expect Uchiha Fugao to be so stingy; just after eating a bit, he wouldn't let us leave.

A guy even more stingy than Jiaodu has appeared!

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "..."

A good brother's thought process is indeed different; Uchiha Fugao could tell right away that he wasn't talking about this.

He is, after all, the Uchiha Clan Leader; he shouldn't be so petty over a little food.

Uchiha Fugao: "..."

Did this guy get his brain jammed by a door when he was young?

What he's asking is clearly not about this!

"Is the Nine-Tails Incident your doing!"

Uchiha Fugao realized Lian Ye's low intellect, and without beating around the bush, directly asked the question on his mind.

If you don't say it directly, who knows what strange things the other might imagine.

Now it's Lian Ye and Tuan Cang who are bewildered.

Uchiha Fugao actually suspects him of being the murderer of the Nine-Tails Incident!

He unintentionally took the blame for Obito.

What kind of joke is this!

"No, stop talking nonsense!" Lian Ye said dissatisfied, "Destroying Konoha Village doesn't require the Nine-Tails for me."

Who is Uchiha Fugao looking down upon?

He's not that useless Uchiha Obito, who can turn a favorable situation into an unfavorable one.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "..."

He originally thought his good brother was angry because Uchiha Fugao had falsely accused him.

In fact, he was angry because Uchiha Fugao looked down on him.

Sure enough, a fool's focus is always different from the crowd.
