Chapter 6: Borrowing Uchiha's Hands to Retaliate Against Danzo

The Root ninja's attack terrified the children.

Although Yamanaka Chujiu had gained quite a bit, today's land-clearing plan had to be abandoned.

He comforted the children kindly, promised to resolve the problem and guarantee there would be no next attack, and then sent the children home.

Afterward, he returned to the scene of the incident and turned all the Root ninja who might have heard his conversation with the children into his own Living Puppets.

Those four Root ninja had launched a fierce attack just from hearing the three words "Execution Line," which showed how exaggerated the impact of these three words was.

He must never let Shimura Danzo associate these three words with him.

Having controlled the four Root ninja, Yamanaka Chujiu still felt unhappy in his heart.

He had never intentionally provoked Root; meeting them on the battlefield and stealing a few Root ninja to shield himself from disaster was just a case of acting out of necessity!

What did the Root ninja's attack on him count as?

It was malicious harm!

Yamanaka Chujiu said coldly to himself: "Shimura Danzo, this is something you brought upon yourself!"

He then locked onto Shisui Uchiha based on emotional sensing and used the method of spiritual inspiration to remind him to pay attention and look at what he was currently doing from a different angle.

A large group of villagers, men and women, old and young, were being escorted by Uchiha ninja, walking through half of Konohagakure while crying and wailing.

Any villager who saw this scene with their own eyes would subconsciously put themselves in the shoes of those villagers and view the Uchiha as enemies.

Shisui Uchiha suddenly froze, and he shouted in a panic: "Stop, everyone, stop!"

Uchiha Inabi was stunned: "Shisui, what happened?"

Shisui did not know how to explain it; he could only pull Inabi aside and let him see that horrifying scene with his own eyes.

All the Uchiha ninja stepped back to look, and they all realized the severity of the problem.

A change in the perception of friend and foe was not something that rumors like "the Nine-Tails is controlled by the Uchiha" could compare to.

If this wasn't handled well today, the Uchiha Clan would be treated as enemies by the villagers.

Uchiha Inabi shouted: "Damn it, we can't just leave it like this, we must notify the Clan Head immediately!"

Shisui asked: "What about these villagers?"

Tekka said: "Take them back to the clan grounds and let the Clan Head decide!"

"Stop!!"

A group of Root ninja suddenly appeared, surrounding the Uchiha ninja and the villagers.

The lead Root ninja said: "Hand the people over to us; they are no longer within the jurisdiction of the Military Police Force."

Shisui Uchiha's nature was certainly to hand them over, but Yamanaka Chujiu would not allow him to think that way; utilizing the close connection between the two, he poured waves of spiritual inspiration into him.

Shisui Uchiha's heart pounded wildly, and he jumped up and shouted: "No! These are the human witnesses to our Uchiha being framed; we cannot let them be snatched away!"

He also shouted to the villagers: "Please trust the Uchiha; if you are taken away, you will definitely meet with misfortune!"

Shisui's reminder was very effective, and the Uchiha became vigilant at once:

"I knew something was wrong; we had just stopped, and these Root ninja appeared—they must have been monitoring us!"

"That's right, we can't hand the people over to them, or they will definitely kill them to frame us!"

The Root ninja looked at the situation indifferently, waiting for the higher-ups to arrive after sending the signal as ordered, to steer the situation in a direction unfavorable to the Uchiha.

But this was the moment for Yamanaka Chujiu to exert his power; he extended his Thought Threads to entangle one of the Root ninja, turning him into a Living Puppet in an instant.

In the eyes of the crowd, one Root ninja suddenly fell silent and threw a Kunai at the villagers surrounded by the Uchiha.

An ignited Explosive Tag was tied to the Kunai; it was clearly an attempt to kill.

Killing could only be for the purpose of silencing witnesses!

Everyone reached the same conclusion.

Uchiha Tekka roared: "Under the gaze of the Uchiha's eyes, don't even think about killing anyone!"

The young Uchiha activated his Sharingan and desperately knocked the Kunai away, scratching his arm in the process.

The explosion of the Explosive Tag triggered a riot, and Anbu ninja from all over rushed over.

Yamanaka Chujiu took advantage of the chaos to exit, leaving behind the scene of the battle between Root and the Uchiha.

Konohagakure was in chaos for the whole night, but he had a good night's sleep.

The next day, Yamanaka Chujiu went out with a tea set and walked straight toward the Death Forest.

He crossed the wall into the forest, stopped at a blind spot where he confirmed he would not be spied upon, and turned to look behind him.

"Shisui Uchiha, come out."

Shisui Uchiha's figure walked out from behind a tree trunk, but unexpectedly, he was followed by a small Uchiha boy.

Black short hair and black pupils, delicate features and long eyelashes, but the most striking feature was the tear troughs on that youthful face.

The eldest son of the Uchiha Clan Head, Itachi Uchiha.

He was the most perverted person in the history of the Uchiha Clan, second only to Uchiha Obito—a psychopath capable of exterminating his own family, including the old and young of the entire clan!

Yamanaka Chujiu was not afraid of psychopaths, but he could sense Shisui Uchiha from two thousand meters away, yet missed Itachi Uchiha when he was only ten meters away.

This was a fatal mistake!

What was even more ironic was that Shisui Uchiha actually asked: "Senior Chujiu, I felt that my concealment was flawless; how exactly did you discover me?"

Yamanaka Chujiu was extremely depressed and could only shake his head expressionlessly: "I cannot say; this is my secret."

The Mind Severing Realm was his trump card for survival, so he would certainly not tell Shisui Uchiha.

This child was ridiculously naive, even telling his arch-enemy Shimura Danzo about his own Mangekyo Sharingan's Kotoamatsukami, bringing a fatal disaster upon himself.

Shisui Uchiha had a very good temper and was not angry at being refused.

He pursed his lips and asked: "Alright, then can Senior tell me what an 'Execution Line' is?"

Yamanaka Chujiu: "..."

After a long silence, he asked: "Where did you hear this term?"

Shisui Uchiha pointed to Itachi Uchiha beside him: "The conversation you had on the street yesterday with the child beside you was overheard by little brother Itachi."

"Neither of us understands the meaning of this word, but we felt inexplicably shocked by it."

"My intuition tells me that this word seems to hide the power to save the Uchiha Clan, so I specifically visited you today, hoping you could clear up our confusion."

Yamanaka Chujiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Shisui Uchiha was not a fellow countryman.

This was truly great!

If Shisui Uchiha were a transmigrator, all the weaknesses in his original personality would cease to exist, and he would likely know information about the future.

The difficulty of taking him out would increase exponentially.

One cannot blame Yamanaka Chujiu for being ruthless.

One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and one world cannot accommodate two transmigrators!

Then his gaze turned toward Itachi Uchiha.
