Since the tri-Alliance consisting of Konoha, Kumo, and Suna jointly raided the Akatsuki Organizations stronghold in Amegakure, both the leaders of the Akatsuki Organization that is Nagato and the masked man have become extremely vigilant.

As a result of which not only have they increased their vigilance towards the other great shinobi villages, and heightened the threat level of the mysterious Amatsukami Organization to the maximum but they have also started to improve, organize, and strengthen the internal management within the Akatsuki Organization Just to be on the safe side, and avoid infiltration and leakage of information.

Previously, all members of the organization were free to do their own things as long as they completed their assigned missions, but thats no longer the case Nagato and the masked man are no longer so loose towards the members of the organization. This has also caused a headache for Shinichi

And the reason is quite obvious Both Nagato and the masked man have noticed Shinichis perfunctory attitude towards the organization, and have, therefore, instructed White Zetsu to use his clones to monitor Shinichi twenty-four by seven.

If it was before, even if Shinichi was under surveillance, the White Zetsu Clones did not dare to get too close because they were aware of Shinichis terrible (in the good sense) sensory skills and therefore, monitored his actions only from a large distance in order to avoid being discovered by him, which gave him ample opportunity to pass on the Akatsukis intelligence to Kuroto on regular intervals.

But after the White Zetsu Clones were given the specific order by the masked man to monitor Shinichi, they no longer cared about the problem of being discovered by him and began monitoring all his actions at a clones distance, as a result of which, Shinichi is unable to transmit any information to Kuroto using his previous methods without the high risk of being discovered by White Zetsu Clones.

And this is also the reason why he couldnt express his true thoughts to Fugaku.

Of course, Shinichi is also a shrewd one. Ever since he entered the organization, he has not forgotten his objective of Spying If he cannot use his previous methods to pass on the intelligence, then he will use new and unconventional methods and the team led by Uchiha Fugaku, or more specifically, Uchiha Fugaku behind him is that method.

With this intention, Shinichi continued to lead Fugakus team and finally stopped at a relatively open grassland.

The three elites, as well as Fugaku who were chasing after him also stopped one after another and spread around the grassland to surround Shinichi at the centre of a four-sided siege, thus cutting off his escape route.

With Shinichi under control, Fugaku walked in front of him and said with a solemn expression, The Root subdivision has been abolished by the Village and you should let go of the past too

Now the Village is facing the threat of the Akatsuki Organization, so the Village needs you, and the Clan also needs you more than ever!

The Uchiha Clan is the cofounder of Konoha, as such, the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan should not become a weapon at the hands of the enemy of the Village. You have already expressed your anger and dissatisfaction, now there is no longer a need to continue come back to the village with us Kurumi wouldnt want you to continue doing what you are doing right now

Fugaku may have considered the option of Coup dtat, but he never even thought of defection This shows that he too is deeply loyal to the Village. Even in the Cannon, after knowing that the Coup could no longer succeed because his son Itachi sided with the Village, Fugaku gave up and died silently, but never once considered or showed the slightest intention of defecting.

In the heart of this indecisive Uchiha Patriarch, Uchiha and Konoha have long been integrated. The internal discord of the Uchiha Clan and Hokage Faction is one matter, but as a Konoha Shinobi, the Captain of the Konoha Military Police Force, and the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, Fugaku would never be merciful to the enemies of the Village, especially when those enemies are the traitors of the Uchiha Clan.

The only reason Fugaku has been trying to persuade Shinichi to come back to the Village is that Shinichi has not done any serious damage to the Village, except for the time he massacred Root Shinobi during the time of his defection

But hey we can ignore that case, after all, the Uchiha Clan also tolerated the death of Uchiha Kurumi at the hands of a Root Shinobi so as to avoid escalating that conflict So, Sandaime Hokage will also have to tolerate Shinichis action of avenging Kurumi, even if it led to the death of several Root Shinobi back then.

Hearing Fugakus persuasive words, Shinichi raised his eyebrow, then said with a smile, Isnt it too late to say this already? You should have witnessed the scene back then

Fugaku shook his head calmly, Better late than never Shinichi As for the issue of the Village being destroyed? It is not a problem The Roots of Konoha lie with us Konoha Shinobi So long as we are alive, so long as the Uchiha Clan exists, the Konoha Village will not perish and continue to flourish even amidst the most terrible storms

To a certain extent, Akatsukis raid this time, and the failure of Hokage to protect the Village is not a bad thing for the Uchiha Clan Because the Village suffered such serious damage, the ones to be blamed most will be the Hokage Faction, as a result of which, the reputation of the Hokage Faction will be hit hard, and it wouldnt be strange if Sandaime Hokage is forced to abdicate in order to take responsibility of his failure.

If the Hokage factions reputation is hit hard, and Sandaime abdicates, the Uchiha Clan, as one of the two founding Clans of Konoha will not only be able to gain back its foothold in the Village but will also be able to gain more political power because of this incident.

After all, the current elites of the Uchiha Clan did not suffer much from Tendos Super Shinra Tensei. And Fugaku also sent back several Uchiha in order to help in the rescuing work which will allow, the people of Konoha to see the efforts of the Uchiha Clan to protect the Village.

Shinichi mocked, Maybe so but that wont change my mind and you wont be able to stop me either

Seeing Shinichis resolute expression, Fugaku sighed, Sigh In that case, I can only do what I must as the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan You are a threat to the Village and the Clan, so I have to either eliminate you, or I have to capture you

As soon as he finished, Fugakus Sharingan suddenly changed the pattern that was a three-tomoe Sharingan until a moment ago changed shape and transformed into the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Whistle Well-well, isnt the Patriarch the most hidden one? said Shinichi in a surprised tone, then added You too have the Mangekyou Sharingan I do wonder why did you never reveal this information?

Fugaku folded his arms over his chest, and answered, It was for the sake of the peace of the Clan I was worried that if the news about me awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan is revealed, it will lead to discord between the Hokage faction and the Uchiha Clan

Although, I didnt expect that in your generation, both, you and Shisui also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan So, if you were to return with us, then with the existence of three Mangekyou Sharingan users, the Uchiha Clan would no longer need to be suppressed by the Hokage Faction And we will also be able to obtain the position of the next Hokage.

After experiencing the initial surprise, Shinichi was disappointed by Fugakus following words, and shook his head with a chuckle, Are you still struggling for the position of Konohas Hokage? Patriarch I am afraid you dont understand the kind of strength the leader of my organization has and you also dont understand what kind of enemy the five great Shinobi Villages are facing. Even if all the five great Shinobi Villages were to unite, they wouldnt be able to find a way to overcome the threat of the Akatsuki Organization, nor will they be able to defeat the leader of my organization

In such a scenario, the Hokage would become nothing more than a joke even if you become Hokage, it would be meaningless

Fugakus face sank upon hearing Shinichis ridicule, In that case, there is no longer a need to talk

As soon as Fugakus words fell, Shinichi suddenly discovered that the surroundings have changed. He is no longer in the relatively open grassland and found himself in a black-and-white world.

A very powerful Genjutsu indeed! muttered Shinichi with a thoughtful look as he observed the surroundings, then without a moment of delay, he immediately spoke to Fugaku @#$%^&

Fugaku was suspicious of Shinichis words, and asked, What you have said is position coordinate, right? And if I remember correctly, this position coordinate is located in the Land of Iron? What are trying to do by telling me this coordinate?

Shinichi replied, I couldnt reveal it in the real world, so I chose this Genjutsu world The position coordinate I have revealed a moment ago is the place where the new secret base of the Akatsuki Organization is located

What?!!!! Fugaku was shocked by Shinichis words.
