Chapter 15 - Uchiha Shisui.

Hearing Nagato's scream, Konan, who had closed her eyes, opened them and looked around. Seeing this, Nagato froze and the anger ready to burst out of his chest with renewed vigor dissipated as he lowered his gaze to the ground. There lay a headless, white body, without clothes. It was White Zetsu that Obito assigned to keep an eye on the two.

Realizing that the decapitated corpse was not Konan's, Nagato let out a breath of relief, he thought that Yusuke's blow was directed at her, but not at the shinobi hiding in the shadows nearby.

Conan looked in surprise at the corpse at her feet, this man looked very strange. Just a moment ago, he looked like a normal Hidden Rain shinobi, but once he was decapitated, his appearance changed. Unlike her, thanks to the eyes of reincarnation, Nagato saw much more. He quickly noticed that the internal structure of the white corpse was completely different from that of an ordinary person.

"What is it?" Unable to contain his curiosity, Nagato asked Yuusuke.

"Very soon, you will find out everything yourself" - Yusuke did not explain to Nagato what White Zetsu was, because he knew perfectly well that although he destroyed this White Zetsu, it would not be long before Obito would find these two and then they would naturally recognize everything you need to know from him. After finishing speaking, Yusuke withdrew his Zanpakutō and walked towards the exit of the cave.

Seeing Yusuke put away his weapon and start to walk away, Konan seemed to lose all her strength at once and collapsed to her knees.

"Why didn't you kill us?" Nagato asked, yelling after Yuusuke. He thought this was strange, because obviously the other side was from Konoha, namely Konoha and Hidden Rain were the culprits of today's tragedy.

Hearing Nagato's question, Yuusuke's footsteps didn't stop, "Because you're not to blame, Yahiko isn't to blame, and the world isn't to blame. There is nothing wrong with this unpredictable life!"

Yusuke's words made Nagato freeze for a long time. At the same time, Konan suddenly noticed a small scroll where Yusuke used to stand. She slowly picked it up and began examining it curiously.

Coming out of the cave, Yusuke let out a long sigh: "I still couldn't overcome myself," he knew that in the future he might regret his decision today, but, whatever it was, the deed was already done and there was no going back .

Yusuke rushed back to Hidden Rain Village after tending his wound and changing into new clothes.

In a large hall lit only by a single oil lamp, Danzo, who had already changed into his regular uniform, was sitting with a grim expression. Not only did he fail to get the desired Reincarnation Eye, but he also lost almost all of his people he took with him on this mission. Despite the fact that the negotiations went perfectly, the loss of so many people was more of a disadvantage than a merit, Sarutobi would definitely take advantage of this and reprimand him upon his return.

At the thought of Sarutobi, Danzo anger flared up again, "Damn you, Hanzo, how could you miss that damned girl at such a critical moment!!"

"It seems our ranks have thinned, did you really send them on some kind of special operation? I haven't heard Hokage-sama giving such instructions." At that moment, a voice was heard at the entrance to the hall, Yusuke slowly entered the room with a smirk on his face.

Yusuke didn't interact much with Danzo and most of his impressions were only from anime and manga before he came to this world. But now that he had witnessed the shameful deeds of this man, the young man was furious.

To Yuusuke's question, instead of answering, Danzo asked a counter-question, voice as cold as ice, "Where have you been?"

"Where was I? Yuusuke asked with a chuckle. "I noticed that all of your people and most of Hidden Rain's people had disappeared and decided to go outside to find out where you all went."

"Bastard, how dare you talk to Danzo-sama like that!!" Suddenly, one of Danzo subordinates jumped up and shouted angrily. In the next moment, Yusuke's gaze turned cold and fell on this shinobi. The screamer immediately froze and was unable to move, he wanted to continue scolding Yusuke, but because of fear he was unable to utter even a word, his sharpened instincts told him that if he continued, he would certainly be killed.

"I'll explain this matter to Sarutobi when I get back," Danzo cold voice rang out as he stood up and left the hall. Passing by Yusuke, Danzo gave him a cold look that seemed to have murderous intent.

In an empty cave near a huge mountain, Obito and Zetsu discussed what happened earlier. By this time, Obito had already changed into a new cloak and put on a new mask.

"Who is that person you fought against, he was wearing a Hidden Leaf shinobi uniform. I must admit, he is strong and difficult to deal with, it may interfere with our plan to capture the nine-tails," White Zetsu asked in a slightly loud voice.

"His name is Uchiha Yuusuke, he is my old rival, naturally he is not easy to deal with. But it will not be difficult to contain him, I already have a plan and he will not be able to interfere with us! Obito replied with slight annoyance in his voice.

"Is he from your clan? But he didn't seem to use his sharingan when he fought you." Black Zetsu asked doubtfully, his hoarse voice sounding very strange compared to White Zetsu's goofy voice.

Obito snorted coldly as Black Zetsu seemed to be accusing him of something, "I don't know why he didn't use it, maybe he still hasn't awakened his sharingan, at least it was when I left the village! In any case, I must master the Mayfly Technique as soon as possible!!" - the fight against Yusuke made him realize that his abilities are very limited and may not be enough to carry out his future plans.

A few days later, Konoha's delegation returned to the village, returning less than half of those who left.

Yusuke stood outside the door of the Hokage's office and waited quietly. It wasn't long before a very gloomy Danzo came out of him, apparently Sarutobi didn't show him any kindness. Without looking at Yusuke, Danzo left with his subordinate, who, unlike Yamanaka Fuu, was lucky to survive that day.

After Danzo left, Yusuke reported to the Third Hokage everything he knew, including the existence of the Reincarnation Eye. In any case, there were many shinobi involved in the attack on Akatsuki, and it was useless to hide anything. Of course, he didn't tell Sarutobi about his meeting with Obito and the incident in the cave with Konan and Nagato.

After reporting to the Third Hokage, Yusuke did not linger any longer and left the Hokage's residence.

At this moment, in the territory of the Uchiha clan, the three small figures were hard at work in the training ground.

Now Kabuto was training in earth element ninjutsu. After several days of training, thanks to his chakra control talent, he was already able to use some basic ninjutsu. Before leaving on a mission, Yuusuke checked his chakra predispositions: earth, water, and wind, so most of the ninjutsu he practiced are of these chakra types.

On the other hand, Izumi practiced taijutsu and kenjutsu while remembering to get Itachi's attention by asking him to guide her.

"Itachi, look, look, this time, I almost hit the mark!" Izumi said with a worried face.

"Not bad, you've gotten a lot better." Itachi smiled and nodded.

"It's all thanks to you, you're a great teacher!" Izumi was very happy.

Kabuto stopped practicing earth ninjutsu with a gloomy expression, the two of them with their actions and ridiculous atmosphere did not allow him to concentrate: "Izumi, why did you refuse my help and go look for Itachi?"

Hearing Kabuto's words, Izumi stared at him with wide eyes, then her face slowly turned red as she hurriedly spoke, "I, I, t-just Itachi is a little better than you at taijutsu and kenjutsu, that's why, I asked him!"

Kabuto shook his head while Itachi pretended not to hear anything, he thought for a moment and suddenly threw several shurikens towards the mannequins. Right after that, they launched three more kunais, which, at a strange angle, hit the shurikens, redirecting them towards the targets, then, amazingly, all six guns hit right in the center of six different targets.

Kabuto's eyes widened in disbelief, even his glasses fell off the bridge of his nose. Luckily, at that time, he was crouched on the ground, so the distance was short, and his goggles weren't damaged by the fall, otherwise Kabuto would have been very upset.

Izumi was also stunned, but quickly recovered and looked at Itachi with even more admiration and love in her eyes. It is worth saying that in the ninja world, girls grew up very quickly, even in the original story, at the age of Izumi, Sakura already fell in love with Sasuke, the same can be said about Hinata, who from the moment they first met, completely fell in love with Naruto.

"Itachi, when did you learn this?" Kabuto asked, recovering from his shock.

"This idea came to me when I saw Izumi throw her sword," Itachi casually replied. Hearing Itachi's reply, Kabuto felt a strong blow to his pride, the incident ignited his competitive spirit with renewed vigor.

*Pa-Pa-Pa*

Suddenly there was a sound of popping, all three young shinobi looked in the direction of the sound and found a teenager a little older than them there. A young boy stood on top of one of the dummies.

The young man had short, disheveled hair of a dark color, a fairly wide nose and prominent eyelashes sticking up. Dressed in the standard Uchiha attire of a dark, high-collared shirt with a tantō tied to the back of his right shoulder, and dark pants. He also wore what appeared to be a leather tanto binding, which was slung over both of his shoulders and slung over his chest.

"Shisui-senpai!" Izumi and Itachi exclaimed in unison.
