Konoha Thief

Chapter 654 Corpse
A figure broke through the bleak air, and appeared outside the ruins like a ghost, and the shouting reminder came from him.

And his person seemed to be faster than his voice. When Uchiha Itachi heard it but hadn't reacted, this person had already appeared on the side of the burning flame. He only heard a sharp sound passing by, and the fireball instantly It was split in half diagonally.

A gust of night wind blew up a few detonating symbols that were torn like shredded paper, and sent them to Itachi Uchiha.

"This is..." Uchiha Itachi couldn't help being startled when he reached out to catch the flying shreds of paper, then looked at the person on the other side of the swaying flames, and whispered, "Brother Shisui."

"You are careless, Itachi." Uchiha Shisui retracted the dagger into the sheath behind his back, looked at Itachi on the other side of the flame, and said after a sigh of relief: "Did something distract you?"

As he spoke, he jumped over the fire and landed next to Itachi, and then saw Sasuke who was sleeping behind a raised stone wall, nodded clearly: "Oh, it turned out to be little Sasuke, so the previous situation was also because of him ?”

"Well, someone is coveting Uchiha's blood, but..." Uchiha Itachi suddenly hesitated.

"But what?" Uchiha Shisui walked to the stone wall and carried little Sasuke out, and asked while checking.

"There is only one person on the other side, and they made such a big noise, it seems that it is specifically to attract attention." Itachi Uchiha pondered for a while, sorting out what happened just now in his mind, and vaguely grasped the anomaly.

"There's only one person? Thinking about it this way, it might be a cover for other actions." Uchiha Shisui raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and at the same time picked up Sasuke and handed it over, "It's nothing serious, it's just that he was drugged and slept. Enough."

"That's good." After taking over his younger brother, Uchiha Itachi heaved a sigh of relief, and said again: "Just what is it for?"

"I don't know." Uchiha Shisui shook his head and said, "But I will know soon after thinking about it. This incident has caused such a big commotion, and the village will not sit idly by."

"Yeah." Uchiha Itachi nodded, and then said goodbye: "I took Sasuke back first, and my mother must be very worried now."

"Go." Uchiha Shisui waved his hand with a smile, and looked at the ruins in a blink of an eye, "I'm going to see how the other clansmen are doing, goodbye, Itachi."

"Goodbye, Brother Shisui." Uchiha Itachi nodded slightly, turned and headed home.

Watching the figure disappear into the night, Uchiha Shisui looked at the burning corpse, and immediately extinguished the flames, thinking that he might be able to get some information from the corpse.

Just when he took out the sealing scroll and was about to put away the body that he had chopped into two pieces with a single knife, a few low-pressure bursts of air suddenly sounded, and his eyes instantly turned into scarlet three-goal jade writing sharing eyes. He followed the sound and looked over. Only to find that all the visitors were dressed as Anbu ninjas.

"Has the ninja from Anbu come?" He whispered, suddenly found something, slightly startled and said: "No, it's not Anbu, it's the ninja from Root."

At this time, a rooted ninja came out, looked at Uchiha Shisui, and said indifferently: "Uchiha Shisui, we are here under the order of Natsuki-sama, to capture the murderer who caused the chaos in the village. However, it seems that it is too late One step away."

"That's right, the enemy has been dealt with." Uchiha Shisui nodded.

"Since this is the case, there is no other way but to return to life with the corpse." The root ninja said, took out a sealing scroll, and walked towards the two corpses that smelled of burnt.

"Wait a minute." Uchiha Shisui stood in front of the corpse at this time, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "The matter happened in the Uchiha clan, so let's let the Uchiha clan handle it."

The blocked Nebe ninja looked at Uchiha Shisui through the mask with indifferent eyes. At this moment, several Uchiha clansmen rushed over.

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Fugaku also arrived. After seeing the situation here, he immediately came to Uchiha Shisui, patted his shoulder, and at the same time glanced at Genbu Ninja and said: "Shisui, what's going on here? ?”

"Patriarch, Gen's ninja wants to take away the body of the troublemaker." Shisui Uchiha nodded respectfully.

Hearing this answer, Uchiha Fugaku frowned, looked at the root ninja in front of him, and said in a low voice with dissatisfaction: "This is Uchiha's clan, not a place where you can do whatever you want!"

"Uchiha is also part of Konoha Village." Genbu Ninja said lightly, "Please allow us to take this corpse away, Lord Uchiha."

"No, this person has caused so many things in the clan, and we must handle them, even if he is dead now!"

Before Uchiha Fugaku could respond, a Uchiha clansman yelled, and other Uchiha clansmen responded one after another. Among them, there were those who were simply discussing the matter, but there were also those who cast tit-for-tat eyes at the root ninjas.

"Shut up!" Uchiha Fugaku turned his head and glared at the clamoring clansman, his eyes turned into scarlet Sangodama Sharingan, and he scolded angrily.

As the head of the Uchiha clan, when he was present, other clansmen interrupted indiscriminately. Even if he had a stable personality and would not get angry over trivial matters, he couldn't help but be annoyed when he was so surpassed at this moment.

The Uchiha clansman who was scolded was slightly taken aback, and opened his mouth to say something, but was held back by the clansman beside him, and finally had to curl his mouth and tilt his head to express his dissatisfaction with a cold snort.

His eyes turned deep black again, Uchiha Fugaku glanced at the young man beside him.

Uchiha Shisui was startled slightly, then nodded immediately, and then walked away, no longer blocking the root ninja and the two corpses.

"Patriarch..." Seeing this, a middle-aged Uchiha clansman immediately understood what Uchiha Fugaku was thinking, and couldn't help calling out in a low voice.

However, before he could continue speaking, a pair of scarlet Sharingans glared at him, and the coercion emanating from the powerful pupils made him stiffen, and he suddenly held his breath as if drowning.

Uchiha Fugaku suppressed him with only his momentum, which made his heart beat faster, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to say another word.

After closing Sharingan, Uchiha Fugaku retracted his gaze, looked at the root ninja in front of him and said, "Take the corpse away, and at the same time, I will send a message to Natsuki-sama: The Uchiha clan needs an answer to this matter."

"I'll bring it." The root ninja nodded, then walked past Uchiha Fugaku's shoulders, collected the body with the sealing scroll, and left with the other root ninjas in an instant.

"Patriarch, what should we do next?" A Uchiha tribe asked for instructions.

Judging from his attitude, what happened just now obviously made the majesty of Uchiha Fugaku's patriarch continue until now.

"Let's clean up the mess." Uchiha Fugaku waved his hand dully, turned and left the scene.

However, he couldn't go back home without hindrance. On the way, someone sent by the Great Elder stopped him, and he had to go to the Great Elder immediately.
