Just as Hidezawa was pondering, a voice sounded in his ear. He turned his head and saw Hikari strolling up to the attic.

"It's quite lively down there. Aren't you going to take a look?"

"What about you? Aren't you hiding up here too?"

Hidezawa asked curiously, but didn't answer directly. He couldn't very well say, 'I'm analyzing a case of a psychopath,' could he?

"Thinking about some things. But these things seem a bit out of place compared to the current time, so it's better to think about them alone."

"Is that so?"

Hikari nodded, not asking any further. Hidezawa, however, turned his head and looked at her curiously.

"Speaking of which, you have such deep hatred for the Uchiha. You long for that clan to be destroyed, don't you?"

Hearing this, Hikari turned to look at Hidezawa. She didn't say anything, but her eyes seemed to be burning with flames.

Hidezawa didn't mind. He casually waved his hand, dispersing the snowflakes in his hand before slowly speaking.

"However, have you ever thought about a problem? There are good and bad people. The operating mechanism of a clan is always determined by its upper echelons.

The people below follow orders. Some are loyal and cooperate with those above, while others feel uncomfortable but are helpless.

Moreover, as far as I know, whether it was the Senju in the past, the Uchiha, or the current Uchiha, it's all the same.

Clan elites, ninjas, and ordinary people are divided into three levels that are somewhat related but not deeply connected. And within a clan, there are also the elderly and children.

I can't say they are all innocent, but at least they have no say in clan decisions. Should they also die?"

Hidezawa had wanted to say this question for a long time.

But before now, there hadn't been a good opportunity. Now, time has reached this stage.

Perhaps it won't be long before Uchiha Itachi's name will resound throughout the ninja world, temporarily becoming 'top-tier' like Danzo.

Hidezawa now also needs to ascertain Uchiha Hikari's thoughts, whether he still intends to use her to deal with Uchiha Obito.

Especially her Mangekyo Sharingan, that ability can only be described as heaven-defying. It's very important to know what this kind of person is thinking.

Especially since Shisui and Kabuto have almost completed the plan, waiting for it all to begin...

"Innocent people?"

Hikari was silent for a moment after hearing Hidezawa's words, then looked at Hidezawa with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"Then am I an innocent person?"

"Yes, you and I both are."

Hidezawa nodded calmly. There was no need to question this at all, and the fire in Hikari's eyes seemed to burn even more intensely.

"Since we are both innocent, then we have to bear the sins of a lifetime!

Why is it us? Why should it be us? You tell me!"

The word 'us' is well used...

"Indeed, why is it us? I have also pondered this question."

Looking at Hikari, who was a little emotional but at least didn't appear as hysterical as he had imagined, Hidezawa nodded in his heart and sighed.

"Later, I guessed, could it be that the heavens are doing this on purpose, deliberately letting us do something to prevent more 'innocent people' like us from getting caught up in it?

Although I think such an idea might be stupid, after all, we ourselves are full of anger. Who helped us when we suffered?

But later, I heard a saying that was somewhat obscure but also easy to understand."

Hidezawa looked at Hikari as he said this, thanking his ancestors in his heart. If his ancestors hadn't 'given him food,' he wouldn't even be able to pour chicken soup.

Moreover, Hidezawa had been in this world for so many years, and he found that classical Chinese was also used here, and the earlier the era, the more frequent it was, which saved him trouble.

"What saying?"

Hikari took a deep breath, then asked softly, and Hidezawa walked up to her and said with a smile.

"When heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person, it always first frustrates his spirit and will, exhausts his muscles and bones, starves his body, subjects him to poverty, confounds his actions. Thus he stimulates his mind, tempers his nature, and enhances his abilities.

I think such words would be easier to understand in your era. We are all people who have suffered, but we have all made it through.

Maybe the heavens just hope that we can do something. Of course, this is my own understanding, and by the way.

It won't be long before the Uchiha are burned to ashes. I said I would help you, and I think you will see this scene soon."

After saying this, Hidezawa patted Hikari on the shoulder and then walked downstairs.

What needed to be said had been said. He also planned to go down and deepen his relationship with Yuugao.

After all, in the new year, he would be sixteen...

In the new year, everyone has beautiful visions for the future.

And the Uchiha clan is no different.

Inside the Nanga Shrine, Uchiha Fugaku looked at the group of elite Uchiha ninjas present, feeling somewhat dazed.

These ninjas are currently the highest level of the Uchiha clan, and this meeting is naturally to discuss their subsequent rebellion!

If possible, Uchiha Fugaku would not want to go this far.

But the fact is that, in his opinion, Konoha has forced them to this point!

His good son didn't reveal too many of the Konoha high-level's thoughts, and the information he said about the Anbu was pitifully little.

This made Uchiha Fugaku feel that his good son was isolated in the Anbu and couldn't get much information at all.

The information he hoped to pass out through Uchiha Itachi probably wouldn't work at all!

And Shisui's death, in his opinion, was a warning, but such an extreme warning would not make the Uchiha peaceful, but would only make them more angry.

After all, Shisui was also a bridge. Now Konoha directly broke this bridge, and the meaning is already very clear!

Uchiha Yashiro looked at Uchiha Fugaku and said in a low voice: "Patriarch, I think we can take action once we set a time. The clansmen below are almost unable to hold back."

"I understand, don't worry, this time I won't let the clansmen down."

Uchiha Fugaku's eyes flickered. His personality was indeed a bit indecisive, and he also admitted that he was indeed swept up in the anger of the clansmen.

But he also had anger in his heart. Recalling the past, especially Shisui's death, he knew he had to make a decision.

"But if we're going to do it, we have to do it well. We can't let anger cloud our judgment. Have the things I asked you to do been taken care of?"

Now that they had decided to rebel, they had to do it right and avoid as many unexpected situations as possible!

"Clan Head, I've already made arrangements at the prison."

Uchiha Inaho spoke up immediately.

"I've already come to an agreement with the hardened criminals who are dissatisfied with Konoha. When the time comes, I'll open the cages and let them lead the others in an attack.

As for those who still have Konoha in their hearts, none of them will get out. I won't give them any chance!"

"What about the aftermath?"

Uchiha Fugaku nodded. The Police Force controlled the prison, and even if the people inside weren't as 'high quality' as the Anbu, they were generally usable.

"I promised them freedom, but…"

Uchiha Inaho smiled. He didn't say much about the aftermath, but everyone understood what he meant.

There was only so much cake to go around, and the Uchiha didn't necessarily care about a bunch of hardened criminals!

Those who survived would naturally have freedom, and could even serve them. Those who died would naturally be dead, and there was nothing to say about it.

"Clan Head, I've also been secretly recruiting rogue ninja and bounty hunters."

Uchiha Tekka took over the conversation at this point, speaking in a low voice.

"Although they're expensive, they should be enough as cannon fodder to divert the attention of the Anbu and most of the ninja."

Although the Uchiha were arrogant and each one was a psychopath, that didn't stop them from being qualified ninja.

They could still be as comprehensive as possible when it came to organizing and planning actions.

"Not bad."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded. The Uchiha didn't have many people, and the lack of a large number of cannon fodder was the Uchiha clan's weak point.

Uchiha Fugaku had no interest in using his own people as cannon fodder. Their task was to directly attack the 'Four Great Powers of Konoha,' and this kind of thing could only be outsourced.

Bounty hunters and rogue ninja were excellent choices because they only cared about money and wouldn't feel any pain even if many of them died.

Besides, the Anbu had always been the Uchiha's biggest worry, especially since there was a guy inside who gave them a headache.

"Clan Head, should we try contacting the Akatsuki?"

Suddenly, Uchiha Yashiro spoke up.

"Although the Akatsuki are all rogue ninja, there are many people inside who are familiar with Konoha, such as Orochimaru and Uchiha Obito.

With them, it might be easier to deal with Konoha's Wood Release..."

Xiuzhe's Wood Release was still very scary, especially since Xiuzhe had defeated Uchiha Obito, who had the Mangekyo Sharingan, right in front of them!

Of course, in their opinion, the key reason why Uchiha Obito lost was that he had one Mangekyo Sharingan in Kakashi's body.

They couldn't understand why Obito didn't take back that eye, after all, there were many opportunities.

But they couldn't say much about it, after all, someone else possessed the Mangekyo Sharingan, not them.

"Let's forget about the Akatsuki. They're too high-profile, and Konoha is keeping a close eye on them, which isn't conducive to our actions."

Uchiha Fugaku thought for a moment, and finally shook his head. The Akatsuki were good, but being closely watched by Konoha made it difficult for him.

"We know your concerns, but we'll have a way to deal with Konoha's Wood Release. Don't forget, we still have Itachi."

"Uchiha Itachi?"

Uchiha Fugaku's words immediately caused the elites present to look at each other, because none of them trusted this eldest son of the clan head!

Ever since this eldest son of the clan head joined the Anbu, he neither participated in clan meetings nor reported any more information about the Anbu.

In fact, many of his actions, in their opinion, had already deviated from the entire clan!

Privately, they had even had conflicts, but they didn't say much because this guy was Uchiha Fugaku's son.

But at this time, this concerned the life and death of the entire clan, and they had to speak up.

"Clan Head, Itachi, he…"

"I know, you may not trust Itachi, but don't forget, he's my son!"

How could Uchiha Fugaku not know about this kind of thing? This made him feel somewhat dissatisfied and helpless.

"There may be some misunderstandings between everyone, but at this critical juncture, any misunderstandings must be eliminated. We can't lack Itachi's strength!"

Speaking of this, Uchiha Fugaku paused slightly before continuing.

"I'll take care of his problem. I believe I won't let everyone down, so let's not talk about this matter anymore!"

Looking at Uchiha Fugaku's appearance and listening to the words from his mouth.

The Uchiha elites present fell into silence. It seemed that they could only choose to believe in this matter...

"Seriously, I still have to work during the New Year."

Early in the morning, Xiuzhe yawned and went out with Yugao and Karin, but his mood didn't seem too high.

The thought of having to go to work early in the morning naturally made him feel bad.

"You're such a lazy guy. Karin is going back to class now, don't teach her bad habits."

Yugao pushed Xiuzhe aside, seemingly dissatisfied with Xiuzhe's state of mind.

"You've been resting for so long, and now you're still complaining about going to work, honestly."

"Where would a working person嫌棄 that their vacation is long呢."

Xiuzhe reached out and grabbed Yugao's hand. The main thing was that he didn't have any missions, and he wasn't clear about the situation on the Uchiha side.

If everything was perfectly clear, then he would definitely be full of motivation!

"Pay attention, Karin is still here."

Feeling her hand being held, Yugao didn't struggle, but glanced at Karin beside her.

Unfortunately, what made her feel helpless was that she found Karin looking down, her thick glasses seemingly reflecting light, and she hadn't looked over at her at all.

Konoha Year 56, Xiuzhe is sixteen years old, and Yugao's sense of crisis is also starting to intensify.
