'Is it Shinichi?' If what Fugaku guessed is correct then he no longer needs to continue to contact the Kumo Delegation.

With that thought in mind, Fugaku quickly said to Sandaime, "Hokage-Sama, please allow the Konoha Police Force to assist in the round-up and hunt of the enemy!" ​​

Since the Uchiha Clan has already arrived, Sandaime no longer has any reason to refuse Fugaku's request, he nodded with a light smile, "Very well, with the assistance of Konoha Police Force, there will be no shortage of manpower during the round-up!"

With that decision, Sandaime divided several teams to search the various directions and he too went in a direction.

Konoha's Anbu and the members of the Uchiha Police Force didn't voice out any opinion once their leader reached an agreement and followed the arrangements as per the orders.

Kumo Jonin groaned for a while and he decided to follow the Hokage and see how the situation turns out.

On the other side.

Shisui ran along with Kuroto and couldn't help but ask again, "Kuroto-san, how did you use Ice Release?"

Theoretically, it isn't impossible for a shinobi to master the fusion of two or more Chakra Natures, however, the probability of such a thing happening is too low because it's not an easy feat, therefore, it's regarded as almost impossible.

Kuroto sighed, and said again, "We'll talk about this later when the current trouble is solved." After a short pause, he asked, "Since you knew that Sandaime personally came to catch the culprit, why did you come so late, if you didn't show up when you did, things would have become more troublesome!"

Shisui was a bit guilty and said, "Sorry, I didn't know that Hokage-Sama personally went to catch the culprit, it was sort of unexpected."

Kuroto sighed and shook his head helplessly, let alone Shisui, even he didn't expect Sandaime to personally take the initiative and hunt down the Bounty-nin, but now that he thinks about it a little, it does seem reasonable.

Officially, the leader of the Kumo delegation who is a guest of Konohagakure was kidnapped and killed in Konoha Village, although it wasn't a Konoha Shinobi, however, Konoha does have a responsibility for the death of Watanabe, in such a situation Sandaime has to show a serious attitude and nip the bud in the right sense.

"Forget it, even I didn't expect Sandaime-Sama to personally take action!" – said Kuroto.

Shisui thought about the scene just a few moments ago and said with some worry, "Kuroto-san, I am afraid that Hokage-sama might discover that it was me who just interfered in the battle!"

Kuroto shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it's not so easy for him to reach that conclusion, at most Sandaime-sama may suspect that it was a shinobi of the Uchiha clan, which would imply that the Uchiha Clan is colluding with the outsiders."

Listening to Kuroto's words, Shisui turned back and said with a frustrated look, "Kuroto-san, you really aren't comforting here!"

Kuroto sighed and said with a straight look, "Shisui, it's about time you stop being naïve before you suffer hard!"

Shisui was a little confused, "What do you mean?"

"You and I both know that Sandaime-Sama is very much aware of all the movements the Uchiha Clan is trying to make behind the scenes, even the recent attempt to make contact with Kumo delegation wasn't hidden from him, and I think that you too realize that the main reason why you are being kept in Anbu is so that you don't support the ideology of the Uchiha Clan if the situation gets worse."

Shisui fell into silence.

Kuroto continued, "The movements of Uchiha Clan have become more active, and these movements aren't hidden from the Anbu, the fact that the Uchiha Clan has been buying a large number of weapons and explosive tags is well known to the Konoha elders, in fact, even the elites of our Hyuga Clan are somewhat aware of these things."

Shisui didn't know what to say, he was really sad and disappointed with how things were turning.

At this time Kuroto asked in a puzzled manner, "I have always wondered; if the Uchiha Clan knows that they are being watched, then how can your clan let such a serious matter be exposed? If the intentions of a Coup d'état are already exposed to the Konoha Council, will it even succeed?"

This thing has always puzzled Kuroto.

In Kuroto's view, before you are absolutely ready and confident, you must not show or expose even the slightest of intentions, and only when it is the right opportunity, you should strike a decisive blow and seize the position at once, if this approach was used by the Uchiha Clan, then things would have turned out much differently.

Shisui said lightly, "In fact, there were still many of the clansmen who are resistant to the idea of Coup d'état, but after Shinichi defected, their thoughts have also started to change, so the situation has started to get increasingly messy."

Just one Uchiha, who has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan easily broke through the Root Base and turned the village upside down, not only that, Uchiha Shinichi easily got rid of the hunting and round-up organized by the village.

With how much uproar Shinichi caused, the Uchiha Clan deeply felt the weakness of the Hokage faction.

'The Village is far from being as strong as it used to be, we have a great advantage!'

This thought has deeply taken root in the mind of most Uchiha Shinobi and is also casually spoken in almost every Uchiha Clan meeting.

If it is said that before only the radicals of the Uchiha Clan were insistent on the Coup d'état for being excluded from the power center of Konoha and wanted to take the risk.

Then after Shinichi's defection, even the pacifists have started to have other thoughts, because they find that there is a great possibility of the success of the rebellion.

Kuroto jokingly said, "So that's why the Uchiha Clan is so insistent in finding the whereabouts of Uchiha Shinichi and bring him back?"

Shisui nodded helplessly, "Yes, the Patriarch seems to have such intentions."

Kuroto said thoughtfully, "Well he is right to think that with three Mangekyou Sharingan users, taking over the village would be incredibly easy, but will his indecisive temperament really choose the option of Coup?"

"Three pairs!?" – Shisui was startled and spoke, "Y-you don't mean that e-even the patriarch…? Even F-Fugaku-sama has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan!?"

Kuroto nodded, "It isn't surprising, he should have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan long ago, after all, he too is a legendary shinobi, the 'wicked-eye Fugaku' is no inferior to the 'Yellow Flash' it's just that his credit in the war was curbed, otherwise, he was an equally strong candidate for the seat of the Yondaime Hokage! And since, the higher-ups of the village were always distrustful of the Uchiha Clan, so he chose to not reveal his Mangekyou Sharingan, after all, Uchiha Madara left deep shadows in the heart of all!"

At that time, Fugaku faced a situation where the Yondaime couple was alive, two of the three Sannin were also present in Konoha, and finally, Sandaime, as well as Danzo, were also in the village, therefore, it was best to not reveal his Mangekyou Sharingan.

But now the situation is entirely different, Yondaime couple is dead, Orochimaru defected, Jiraiya is hardly ever-present in the village, moreover, there are also Shisui and Shinichi of the Uchiha Clan who have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, so stopping the momentum of the Uchiha Clan is hardly possible for the village.

The difference in the overall strength is eminent.

Shisui was at a loss at this moment, all he could see was the sight of the Uchiha Clan rebelling.

Shaking his head to shut the horrifying thought, Shisui quickly said, "Kuroto-san, you promised that you would help me out, right?"

Kuroto nodded and took out a storage scroll from the inner pockets of his cloak, and passed it to Shisui.

Receiving the scroll, Shisui took out the contents, only to find a midnight black cloak with various designs on it, it looked very similar to what Kuroto-san was wearing, with the only difference being the center of the chest part, there was a symbol of Fire Chakra Nature, instead of the Water Chakra nature.

Then there was an evil spirit mask with flame patterns.

Looking at the articles he received, Shisui looked at Kuroto in a confused manner.

Kuroto said, "Put this on, from now on, you are an official member of 'Amatsukami' and your alias will be 'Homusubi' the 'God of Fire.'

Shisui was more confused, "Amatsukami? Homusubi? What do you mean Kuroto-san?"

Kuroto smiled lightly, "You asked a way to save the Uchiha Clan, didn't you? I am giving it to you!"
