Naruto: Konoha's Kanpu

Chapter 729: Shisui's Return

Konoha.

Deep in a certain sewer alley, more than a dozen sneaky shadows were chattering.

“It has been confirmed that Danzo-sama will be sent to Konoha Prison by Anbu in three days!”

“What should we do? There is no way we can save him from Anbu by ourselves.”

“I heard an information saying that Anbu will only send a team to escort Danzo-sama, is this true?”

“If so, we can take the risk! “

“What if it is a trap?”

“For safety, let’s send a Sensor Shinobi to investigate first. If there is no trap, we will take action!”

“Yes, just do it!”

“There are still three days…”

“I hope Danzo-sama was not humiliated in the Anbu’s Headquarters…”

The shadows chattered for a while, and soon the alley became quiet.

……

At the same time.

At the deepest underground level of the Anbu’s Headquarters.

Step, step, step…

Along with a steady sound of footsteps, Kanpū, who is eager for justice, helpful, honest and trustworthy, strode forward, all the way to the deepest cell.

“Shimura Danzo!” Kanpū stared coldly at the one-eyed man sitting on the ground through the small window on the iron door.

“What’s the matter?” Danzo rolled his one eye. His eye is deep and cold, like a lone wolf trapped in a prison.

Kanpū coughed dryly and looked around. After seeing that the nearest Anbu was ten meters away, he quickly blocked his mouth with his hands, and cursed softly: “You are mean!”

“???? “Danzo frowned and his face darkened. The superior and majestic prison-like aura suddenly surged from him.

Kanpū didn’t seem to feel it, and continued to whisper softly: “You are shameless!”

“You are despicable!”

“You stink and have no shame!”

Kanpū is fulfilling his promise to Mei, and scolded Danzo severely.

Danzo was very furious at this moment. After all, it was the first time in his life that he was scolded so badly by someone!

But soon after, he suppressed his anger again and pondered secretly: ‘Something is wrong!’

‘This Gekko Kanpū must have come to scold me on purpose, he’s obviously trying to provoke me!’

‘But he, no, behind him is Namikaze Minato. What is Namikaze Minato’s purpose to provoke me?’

Danzo thought about it, but he couldn't think of it, and his face gradually became terrible: ‘Bastard, I couldn’t think of it!’

‘As expected of Namikaze Minato!’

‘But it doesn’t matter. Although I can’t think of a reason for you to do this, I’m sure there must be a conspiracy behind it!’

Danzo sneered again and again: “Don’t waste your effort, I won’t do as you wish!”

“???” This time, it was Kanpū’s face that is filled with question marks.

‘Forget it, let’s just curse a few more words.’

……

At about seven o’clock in the evening.

On the mountain steps in front of the torii of Naka Shrine, Uchiha Clan’s members came one after another. These people all wore forehead protectors, and they are the backbone of the Uchiha Clan!

“Look, why did that guy also come?”

“Who made him the son of Clan Head-sama?”

“If it wasn’t for that important identity, I would have beaten him long ago!”

“He actually joined Anbu, I still can’t forgive that bastard!”

The one they are talking about is none other than Itachi, who walked towards the torii gate.

After Shisui defected, Uchiha Clan was first misunderstood by the villagers, and then was driven to live in the most remote area of ??the village by the advisors. The relationship between the two parties was very tense for a while! And at that time, among the tribesmen who were supposed to share the same hatred, a backstabber appeared!

Yes, this person is Itachi who has joined Anbu, which is directly under the Hokage, without hesitation!

Itachi walked alone on the stairs, and the clansmen around him glanced at him with sarcasm from time to time, and chatted about all kinds of gossip, trying to irritate him and force him to take the first action. But Itachi is not angry at all.

After learning the truth from his father, he has completely ascended the Buddhism. Now, he only hopes that Shisui can complete his undercover mission and return soon. Who cares about the rest?

Itachi looked up at the red torii gate under the moonlight, remembering the scene when Shisui brought him here to play when he was a child, and couldn't help but smile warmly.

This smile is so dazzling that the clansman around couldn’t stand it anymore!

“You still have the nerve to smile?!”

“This is the ancestral land of the Uchiha Clan. Such people who betray the clan are not welcomed at all!”

Itachi continued to ignore them and went straight through the torii gate and entered Naka Shrine.

The Uchiha Clan’s members had no choice but to follow in angrily.

Because there was nothing shameful about this gathering, Fugaku did not open the secret room, and sat directly in the main hall of Naka Shrine.

The rest of the clansman also sat on the ground consciously. Before seven o’clock, except for those who were on duty in the Military Police Force, all Uchiha Clan’s Shinobi was present and they’re chattering there to discuss the purpose of this meeting.

Fugaku looked around and saw his son Itachi in the backmost corner.

As for Sasuke, he is still too young to participate in such a meeting.

When the time reached seven o'clock, Fugaku coughed lightly, and started speaking: “I have two things to announce at this gathering!”

“Clan Head-sama, is it related to the explosion during the day?”

“I heard that there was an explosion in the Anbu’s Headquarters!”

“The Anbu said it was just a drill, but I secretly observed it and found that it required at least ten Explosive Tags for the explosion to cause such damage!”

“Since they used such a large amount of Explosive Tags, how could it be just a drill?”

The more everyone talked, the more excited they became.

Fugaku frowned slightly when he saw this.

The clansman who are talking now are all those on radicals faction, the kind of people who just hate that Konoha wasn’t chaotic enough.

He shook his head slightly and continued: “The first thing is, Shisui has returned.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place fell silent.

‘Shisui… is back?’

Everyone looked at each other with inexplicable expressions in their eyes. There are excitement, ecstasy, and worry. After all, Shisui is Missing-nin, and once discovered, Anbu will definitely come to arrest him.

Itachi, who was sitting at the very back, was completely stunned.

‘So, it was Big Brother Shisui who stopped me this afternoon?’

‘I didn’t even recognize him?’

‘I’m such an idiot!!’

Itachi clenched his teeth and lowered his head, his eyes are red with regret.

‘I obviously worked so hard to join Anbu to find out the truth about his defection, but when Big Brother Shisui himself appeared in front of me, I didn’t recognize him!’

‘I’m such an idiot!!’

“Clan Head-sama! Has Shisui really come back? Where is he?”

“Will he be discovered by Anbu?”

“We should talk about this kind of thing in the secret room, Clan Head-sama!”

“If Anbu dares to catch Shisui, I will definitely fight them to the end!”

“Me too!”

“Me too!!”

Although Shisui has been away for several years, his popularity and reputation in the clan are still very high!

After all, he is very famous in the Shinobi World by the nickname of Shisui of the Body Flicker and he’s also Uchiha Clan’s strongest Genjutsu Shinobi!

Fugaku looked at this scene with complicated emotions.

Then he stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said to the outside: “Shisui, come in.”

“Yes!” With the familiar voice, Shisui, who had changed back to his Uchiha’s clothes, walked in step by step with narrowed eyes.

“Shisui?!”

“It's really Shisui!”

Many clansmen were overjoyed, and they gathered around him to greet him. Their excited shouts spread far and wide.

Itachi also stood up in a whoosh, his body is trembling as he looked at the figure surrounded by his clansmen.

Shisui seemed to sense his gaze, and turned around with a smile, and there’s a slightly embarrassed expression on his face: “Itachi…”

‘Itachi, you didn't recognize me this afternoon. As the big brother, I, Shisui, is so embarrassed.’

“Big Brother Shisui, this afternoon, I…” Itachi wanted to explain at the time, but the clansmen didn’t give him a chance.

“Shisui, don’t talk to this kind of person!”

“Uchiha Itachi doesn't deserve to talk to you at all!”

“Did you know? After you left, this guy actually joined Anbu!”

The clansmen seemed to have found their backbone, and they immediately accused Itachi fiercely at that time.

Shisui smiled bitterly and said: “Everyone has misunderstood. In fact, I didn't really defect.”

“That's right, if it wasn’t for you defecting, Shisui, we wouldn't even know about Uchiha Itachi… eh? What did you just say?”

“What do you mean that you didn’t really defect?”

The clansmen are shocked.

At this time, Fugaku, who was sitting firmly in the head seat, spoke: “Shisui's defection was Yondaime’s instruction. The purpose was to complete a confidential mission in Anbu. Now that the mission is over, Shisui will naturally come back.”

The clansmen looked at each other in shock, only to feel that this world is indeed full of malices.

“Everyone, I’m very sorry to make you worry.”

Although Shisui had a clear conscience, his defection had indeed brought many adverse effects to the clan, so he walked out of the crowd and bowed deeply to them.

“Shisui, you…”

“How could this happen?!”

“Then Shisui, your wanted bounty…”

“Of course it has been cancelled!”

“That’s great, Shisui did not betray the village!”

“In this way, we can be the same as before, right?”

“In the past few years, we have said a lot of bad things towards Yondaime, it's so inappropriate!”

Another voice in the clan that had been suppressed for many years emerged.

Those from radical factions are dumbfounded at this moment. They were happy that Shisui could come back, but they were also angry that the truth that Shisui brought back was so ‘horrifying’!

They are not convinced at all!

“Since Shisui faked his defection, why did Yondaime drive our clan from Konoha’s urban area to such a remote place?” A clansman asked.

Fugaku glanced at him sideways and replied: “This is related to the second thing I want to say.”

After successfully focusing the clansmen's eyes and attention on him again, Fugaku waved for everyone to sit down again.

Later, he told the story of Shisui's false defection, his cooperation with Minato, and the humiliation he had to bear to frame Danzo.

He spoke emphatically and carefully about enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens to ensure that the clansmen knew that he had also made many sacrifices for the clan.

Finally, he coughed dryly, and with a majestic expression on his face, he said: “Yondaime asked me in the afternoon if I would like to take up the Advisor Position vacated after Danzo left. I am currently considering it.”

“Advisor?!”

“No way?!”

“How could Yondaime Hokage be so generous?”

“Because Yondaime is the Yellow Flash!”

“Yondaime is really a gentle person!”

The clansmen instantly fell into a state of excitement and started chatting wildly.

At this time, Itachi secretly moved to Shisui’s side and quietly apologized to him for what happened in the afternoon.

Shisui is not a petty person, so he forgave him on the spot and said that they will remain good brothers in the future!
