Konoha: Nara Who Masters Ten Shadow Spells

Chapter 44: Become Uchiha’S Gravedigger, Itachi

Swish——

Uchiha Itachi suddenly raised his head and stared at Nara Jun closely.

It doesn't matter what you say about him, but his awareness of the will of fire must not be slandered!

"Third Generation has praised you so much, saying that you have Hokage thinking at a young age and can look at problems from a global perspective." Nara Jun said slowly.

"So what?" Itachi asked, glaring at Nara Jun angrily.

Shisui behind him was surprised and looked at Nara Jun in surprise.

Before that, he had been teasing Itachi for a long time without saying a word.

Unexpectedly, it took only a few words from Xiao for Itachi to speak.

"I think this sentence hurt you."

Nara Jun said calmly, with a serious tone, "It makes you stand too high, become lost, and become unable to understand the pain and struggle of middle- and lower-class ninjas, just like nobles cannot understand the pain of civilians."

"Look at these."

Wow——

Nara Jun threw a lot of documents and letters into Itachi's hand.

"Who do you think your ambitious father is?"

The documents and letters he threw out were some of the information left behind by Fugaku when he had conversations with the Fourth Hokage and the Third Hokage.

"Father?"

Itachi picked it up and looked at it blankly. After looking at it for a few times, his expression turned into disbelief.

The more he looked, the more surprised he became.

But after reading the whole thing, I felt confused.

His father, Fugaku, turned out to be the staunchest dove in the family!

He once had a close relationship with Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato. His mother Mikoto and Fourth Generation's wife Kushina were also close friends.

The two families exchanged many letters.

Even Third Hokage once expressed its approval of Fugaku.

"Father... is not the mastermind of the rebellion?" Itachi muttered to himself in a daze. He always thought that his father was blinded by ambition and could not see the village.

The rebellious atmosphere at the clan meeting was fueled by Fugaku, the clan leader.

Little did he know that the family's situation was worse than it appeared!

Being like this is the result of Fugaku's painstaking suppression!

His father actually saw it clearly than anyone else, but he was trapped in Uzumaki and was powerless.

"Also, do you think that the unopened Uchiha ninjas are really dissatisfied with the village and are so angry that they want to launch a rebellion?" Nara Jun asked again.

"What do you mean?" Itachi looked at Nara Jun in surprise.

Isn't that true?

The atmosphere in the family is set off by these people.

Now when he walks in the tribe's territory, he can hear the tribesmen openly discussing the rebellion.

"They are just being held hostage."

Nara Jun shook his head and explained: "For example, let's talk about the root. Is it possible that every dead soldier trained in it is a natural executioner and a person without emotions?"

Itachi was stunned as he listened.

He somewhat understood what this ‘Owl’ meant.

"Of course not. They were taken away and trained by their roots when they were three or four years old. What do they know at that age?" Nara Jun said: "The same goes for your Uchiha lower-class tribesmen. They have been influenced by radicals since they were young, and the more radical they become, the more radical they become. The stronger the mood swings, the easier it is to awaken the Sharingan and then gain status and voice."

"Actually, calm and rational voices are always there!"

"It's just being suppressed."

Boom!

Hearing these words sounded like a bell to Itachi's ears, shocking his soul.

His expression changed several times, and finally he showed a look of pain, and said in a difficult tone: "...could it be said that I have been wrong all along?"

Outside the cell.

Shisui, who was standing behind Nara Jun, also felt mentally shaken.

He sighed inwardly with admiration.

As expected of Senior Xiao, he always has an insight into people's hearts and situations.

‘Only Oo-senpai can convince the stubborn Uchiha clan like us. ’ Shisui said to himself.

He was also persuaded in this way before.

"It's not that much of a mistake, it's just that I got into a blind corner."

Nara Jun waved his hand and said:

"You just think of everyone as rebels. In fact, there are neutral, opposing, drifting, and involuntary people among them, and these people are not our enemies."

"So, do you understand what is the best result for Konoha?"

Nara Jun looked at him and gave the answer directly without waiting for him to answer.

"The best result is not that Konoha loses Uchiha, but that Uchiha can be integrated into Konoha...your father Fugaku can't do this, but you can do it."

"Do you know why?"

"Because you already have the consciousness to shoulder everything, why don't you just become the gravedigger of the old Uchiha?"

A few words were spoken.

Itachi felt his heart jolt, and his thinking instantly became clear.

"Gravedigger?"

He muttered to himself, his eyes lost in thought.

This was something he had never thought about. In the past, he had always felt that his family was hopeless, and he was moved and disappointed by everyone.

But it turns out that's not the case.

Uchiha can still be saved and is worth saving!

It's just that, with his superior vision, he stubbornly and arrogantly denied other answers.

"……I see."

Itachi took a deep breath, looked moved, stood up and bowed deeply to Nara Jun.

"I'm grateful, Senior Xiao. If it weren't for your words, I would still be blinded by my own self-righteousness."

Speaking of this, his eyes couldn't help but darken.

Xiao is right, the Hokage thinking comment about the Third Generation purpose hurt him.

He regarded himself as a Hokage, using a superior perspective to look down arrogantly at the people below, but he had no real means of being a Hokage.

At the same time, Itachi also had some enlightenment.

Why does Brother Shisui respect this senior Xiao so much!

‘With such detailed analysis and incisive judgment, this senior is the one who truly possesses Hokage thinking! ’ Itachi sighed sincerely in his heart.

When he stood up, he looked at Nara Jun with the same respect as Shisui.

Nara Jun saw this and nodded inwardly.

Knowing that this paranoid child has been convinced, the next thing will be simple.

Shisui, Itachi, and both pairs of Mangekyō were on his side.

It's easy to recommend the Uchiha clan.

"Have a good rest, I still have something to do for you." Nara Jun stood up and left after saying a few words.

"Yes." Itachi bowed.

Shisui also bowed.

It wasn't until Nara Jun's footsteps faded away that the two of them raised their heads.

In the cell, silence returned.

"Gravedigger..."

Shisui walked to the cell with emotion, sat on the ground, and said, "It's an apt description. Let me tell you, this senior Xiao is really full of wisdom and vision. I admire him from the bottom of my heart."

"Yes." Itachi nodded in agreement.

After the knot in their hearts was settled, the two brothers, who had not seen each other for many days, gradually started to talk.
