Chapter 30 Iron Curtain

Chapter 30 Iron Curtain

Time goes back to when Uchiha Flame had just looked at the masked man at close range.

At the same time, Uchiha Shisui was at Naka Falls, assessing the progress of Giyu's chakra amount over this period of time.

Under this period of arduous training, Giyu's mind and body have been fully tempered, and the improvement of chakra (mental energy + physical energy) should be very fast.

"Can a maximum of twelve shadow clones be released at the same time?"

Uchiha Shisui looked at Giyu who formed three clones in front of him and nodded approvingly.

"In this way, your total amount of chakra is twice as much as when you first learned to extract it half a year ago."

"Very good progress, Giyu. This is already better than when I was ten years old, and your shadow clone seems to be unexpectedly strong..."

Giyu was not surprised at all and looked calm.

He has two modes of producing chakra.

The first is the suspended breathing method, which uses only mental energy and physical energy to create ordinary chakra, just like most ninjas.

In this case, his total amount of chakra is similar to Itachi's half a year ago, and he can use up to six shadow clones at the same time.

The second is to run the Water Breathing·Constant, which uses three kinds of energy to evenly mix to create high-concentration chakra (senjutsu chakra).

Although the second type seems to have only 1/3 more components (natural energy) than the first type, in terms of the total amount that can be utilized, the latter is fully twice as high as the former.

And after Giyu's experiments, the power released by Ninjutsu, especially Water Release Ninjutsu, using the second type of Chakra is obviously greater than that of ordinary Chakra.

In places with abundant natural water resources, the power of this chakra will increase exponentially, and it is estimated to reach its limit at sea...

In addition, the shadow clone created by the second chakra can also withstand slightly heavier blows and can increase the time it takes to confuse the enemy.

In contrast, Giyu had already abandoned the first method of producing chakra.

"Can I leave the village now?"

Giyu asked, staring intently at Shisui's face.

It had been three days since Itachi went on a new mission.

Because Itachi was overly protective of him, Giyu planned to take advantage of his absence to Resurrect Flame Hashira, Rengoku Kyojuro before going to school in a relatively safe place in the Land of Fire, but full of orphans.

But Shisui has always regarded himself as Itachi's brother and Giyu's guardian outside. If Giyu's situation cannot satisfy him, Shisui will not help him hide the news of his outing from Uchiha Fugaku, Mikoto and Sasuke.

"It's probably okay."

Shisui scratched his head lightly and pursued with some confusion: "But why do you have to go out? There are things outside, and they are also available in Konoha Village."

"..."

Giyu kept silent, not knowing how to explain.

"Prefer not to say?"

Shisui wasn't angry at all, "It's really your style, Giyu. However, if it's just the Country of Fire, there's no danger. After all, it's always been peaceful here -"

At this point, his voice suddenly stopped, and then he frowned and gently pressed his eye socket with his right hand, as if a child had been hit by a slingshot.

"what happened?"

Giyu released all the shadow clones, stepped forward, and opened the transparent world by the way, scanning the place where Shisui pressed.

He found that not only did Shisui have no pathology, but the two green energies in his brain that represented the power of the pupils had become brighter and richer than before, like two breathing flames.

"I have nothing to do..."

After a while, Shisui said with some uncertainty: "Someone must have solved the illusion I cast on Uchiha Flame..."

It is different from other genjutsu in that it interferes with the opponent's own chakra and causes it to flow chaotically in the brain.

Shisui's illusion of modifying the memory of Uchiha Flame is essentially a weakened version of his own Mangekyō ability.

He needs to cover part of his eye power semi-permanently in Uchiha Flame's brain until the illusion is lifted. This causes Shisui to always have a part of his body's pupil power missing...

But just now, this missing part of the pupil's power suddenly began to recover on its own. This meant that the genjutsu he had cast on Uchiha Flame was broken.

"Didn't he untie it himself?"

There was always a false memory in Uchiha Flame's mind, and Giyu still felt a little sorry.

When Giyu thought about it, although the child had a somewhat impulsive personality, it was much gentler than what Shinazugawa Sanemi did to him, and he didn't look like someone who would tell the truth to his elders.

In addition to being eager to prove himself, Uchiha Fire has no specific malice towards Giyu. He previously helped out on the street as a police force and invited Giyu to attend the banquet, which is the best proof. But Giyu happened to have something important to do, so he refused.

"That's what worries me."

Uchiha Shisui has extraordinary pride and confidence in his illusions and eye power.

"To be able to dispel my genjutsu, only one with eye power comparable to mine can do it. It was more than a year ago that Uchiha Flame obtained the three tomoe Sharingan. It is absolutely impossible to dispel it on its own."

He immediately thought of the person in the clan who was most likely to have the same eyes as him - Uchiha Fugaku.

However, the clan leader has always been working in the security department, and Sasuke is also with him. It is impossible for him to suddenly run to Uchiha Flame, and he has no reason to do so...

But if it is the three tomoe sharingan of ordinary people, only by holding down Uchiha Flame's head, opening his eyelids and forcing him to look at each other for ten minutes can Shisui exert the pupil power in Uchiha Flame's head.

This is another possibility.

But as far as Shisui knew, the three subordinates Uchiha Flame brought to the border checkpoint of the Land of Wind this time should all have a one tomoe.

"What on earth happened..."

He did not consider the possibility of Uchiha Flame being killed, because the illusion was lifted and the subject was killed directly, which gave him a different feeling.

To be on the safe side, Shisui decided to go to the guard station first to see if Uchiha Fugaku there was his true form, and also to check if any clansman with the Three tomoe Sharingan left Konoha today. And why did the other party do this?

Of course, Shisui did not forget foreigners such as Hatake Kakashi, who possessed the Sharingan. As long as it is three tomoe or above, it is within his consideration range.

A few hours later.

In a large base deep underground in Konoha. Shimura Danzo has just finished the ideological education of an orphan.

He walked into the office and suddenly found two more boxes on the table, one short and one long. All the fatigue in Danzo's body was swept away.

This is something that didn't exist before he left.

[That weird guy was here last time...]

His bandaged coffin face tensed up even more. After pondering for a few seconds, he ordered the root ninja behind him: "No one is allowed to come in."

"yes."

The door slammed shut, leaving Danzo Shimura alone in this room filled with sealing techniques.

He looked around with his vicissitudes of life with his left eye, and used his wooden crutch to push the ground hard under his feet, making a series of muffled sounds like knocking on the door, as if he was greeting the people living below.

"Are you still here?"

He called out and waited for ten seconds, but received no response. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Danzo walked to the table and carefully stared at the two "gift boxes", as if anticipating possible dangers.

Until he changed his mind, with the other party's ability to enter here at any time, if he wanted to harm him, there was no need to use this method. At the same time, he also felt a long-lasting shame about his timidity.

He first opened the small square gift box, and his right eye that was originally slightly narrowed suddenly widened.

"This is..."

He picked up the small bottle filled with light green liquid in the box, pointed it at the light, and counted the number of tomoe on the content.

"A three-tomoe Sharingan?"

He muttered to himself, not knowing the purpose of that person giving him this thing.

Until he unsealed another long box, opened the scroll inside, and saw the four words "Izanagi" and the rest of the content——

[The Supreme Eye Technique can only be used with the power of both Senju and Uchiha...]

Danzo Shimura subconsciously touched his right arm, but a number immediately flashed in his mind.

That is the total number of members of the Uchiha clan who have activated the three tomoe.

Unknowingly, Shimura Danzo had another reason to want to completely eliminate Uchiha, his personal thorn in the side.

…

When the news of the disappearance of Uchiha Flame and Uchiha Wen reached Konoha, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

After receiving the notice from the Third Hokage, almost all members of the security team went on strike. A large group of people rushed to Konoha Hospital with blood-red eyes, and not surprisingly, they met the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen at the door of the hospital.

"Third Hokage."

After Uchiha Fugaku uttered these two words, he pursed his lips tightly, and the corners of his mouth drooped more than ever before.

This time he came to represent the will and anger of the clan and wanted an explanation.

The Uchiha Fire Team was carrying out a semi-secret mission, but less than a day after setting off from Konoha, the captain and one of his team members were attacked in the Land of Fire, where patrols were everywhere. No one was seen alive, and no corpses were found. Needless to say, who should be the first to suspect?

"Fugaku, I know what you are probably thinking, but things are not that simple."

The Third Hokage took off his bamboo hat, and his old little eyes looked at Uchiha Fugaku's eager eyes, but he had no intention of fighting.

With only two Anbu, he faced dozens of aggressive security guards, but he was not afraid at all.

"The two surviving children were both swept away by the mudslide and fell into the valley. They were already seriously injured when they were discovered by the patrol. Medical ninjas are currently trying their best to save them."

"I understand your worries, but if you bring so many people here, not only will it not help the treatment, but it may also prevent other work in the hospital from being carried out smoothly. What happened last night? We can only cure these two. We won't know until after we have children, right?"

"Then why didn't you inform us first and then bring the person directly to the hospital?"

Behind Fugaku, a security team member shouted loudly: "If you start treatment without our supervision, who knows what you want to do!"

"Also, do you really have no idea whether Flame and Wen are missing or something else?"

"Which team discovered Cui and Gan? We want to hear their side of the story!"

"And their mission and action route, who leaked it?!"

The members of the Konoha Police Force were very excited and put forward one request after another that was either reasonable or excessive. Because the movement was so loud, the windows of the whole hospital were full of people, talking and pointing at the people downstairs.

Uchiha Fugaku saw all this in his eyes, and knew that after today, the reputation of the police force among the people of Konoha would probably go even further, so he quickly raised his right hand, and the voice behind him suddenly stopped.

"Listen first to what the Third Hokage has to say."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression had the same sympathetic apologetic expression unique to an old man as before.

The two Anbu behind him were stared at by so many three tomoe sharingan at the same time, and cold sweat flowed from the mask to their necks.

[As expected of the Third Hokage, he is so courageous...]

"I have always said that children are the hope of the village. Whether they are civilians or Uchiha, the village treats them equally. When this happens, whether you believe it or not, I feel the same pain as you, and I can't wait to take their place. Lying on the operating table. But things have happened and they have to be faced."

The Third Hokage spoke slowly, "At present, you can rest assured for the two children who are being rescued. I have invited the best medical ninjas to treat them. It is only a matter of time before they wake up. But before they wake up, I hope everyone can For the time being, let go of all the prejudices and unfounded speculations formed in the past."

"Jounin of the Uchiha clan, members of the security team, as ninjas who manage ninjas, you should be the best part of Konoha. In the case of insufficient information, if you use your own imagination to fill in the gaps in the incident, I don't need to say more about how harmful it is, right?"

The Uchiha clan is a proud clan. Going against them will not only fail to intimidate them, but will actually make them share the same hatred. Danzo just didn't understand this (or he did the opposite on purpose because he understood it), but Third Hokage knew it very well.

It's easy to calm them down a bit by giving them recognition and praise.

Sure enough, upon hearing Sandai's approval, the young clansman's heavy breathing gradually calmed down.

" Then I would like to ask the Third Hokage."

Uchiha Fugaku asked, "How long will it take for them to complete the operation?"

"Three to four hours, that's what the doctor said."

"so."

Uchiha Fugaku pondered for a while and said to the people behind him: "Inaba, Tetsuka and I are staying here. The rest of the group went to various parts of Konoha first and asked all clan members to return to their clan areas."

He paused and continued in a low tone: "Flame has no family since his grandfather passed away. You must comfort the parents and relatives of the other three children and tell them that the matter has not been concluded yet. When the two children wake up, explain what is going on. After the situation is resolved, I will return to the clan immediately, and then we will discuss how to handle this matter."

"yes!"

Just like that, the members of the security team immediately dispersed and went to various parts of the village to look for the clan members to return to the clan area and not allow them to go out.

At this point, an iron curtain has been formed across the village and Uchiha. This is also the scene that the masked man and Danzo Shimura want to see.

Once the two sides begin to isolate themselves from each other and block communication, their suspicion and wariness of each other will increase day by day, just like the clans in the Warring States Period.

As a result, it is almost inevitable that Uchiha will be forced onto the path of rebellion.

It's just that they failed to calculate three things.

First, Uchiha Shisui already knew that the person who caused Uchiha Flame to disappear was either a fellow Uchiha, or an outsider with at least a three-tomoe Sharingan.

Second, Shimura Danzo, who possesses Hashirama cells, covets Izanagi's power and can't wait to equip himself with the Sharingan.

Third, there is a child in the Uchiha clan who can see directly through a person's body like Hyuga.
