Hearing Ryota's serious question, Kuroto fell silent for a while, then said, “I promised Shisui that I will not let the Uchiha Clan disappear, and then said, I promised Shisui that I will not let the Uchiha Clan disappear, I don't really care if you believe me that I said is true or not, but part of the reason I did all this has to do with saving the Uchiha Clan.”
Ryota was startled, and after understanding a few things, he looked a little lost.
Kuroto said, “The Uchiha Clan Coup Plan is doomed to fail, the warrior leader your clan had hoped for during the rebellion was strongly opposed to the idea of a Coup, be it Shisui or Itachi, he said, and even if there are some prodigies of your clan successfully start a rebellion, it will completely destroy Konoha and the other villages will not miss such an opportunity, he said, so that the entire shinobi continent will be engulfed in the flames of war that causes too much destruction and death, and I really have no interest in such a thing becoming a reality.”.
Ryota said in a deep voice, "As long as the entire Uchiha Clan is united, no one in the entire shinobi world will be able to harm the Uchiha Clan!"
"Maybe you're right." – Kuroto nodded, then said, “But the truth is not as you expected, the entire Uchiha Clan does not support your cause, there are people who are secretly opposing the Coup, and the radicals from your clan are pushing them to put pressure on them that they should support the clan, so inevitably what you are doing is actually more damaging to your clan. ”
Ryota fell silent for a moment and said, "So what do you think the Uchiha Clan should do?"
Kuroto said, "To be honest, I don't know, but I know that a coup is not the way, maybe a change?"
Ryota frowned, “Change? What kind of changes?”
"I. I don't know, to be honest, I'm going to find out these things because I promised Shisui not to let the Uchiha Clan be destroyed, and that's what I'm going to do."
The reason for the destruction of the Uchiha Clan was many, there was a Danzo inside the village then there was Obito outside, so Kuroto did not have a perfect method to solve this problem for now, but maybe he will have it in the future.
After a long silence, Ryota said in a bitter tone, "I hope so."
Speaking so, Ryota raised his hand that was holding Kunai, and directly pierced his heart, ending his life here.
For a few seconds, Kuroto remained silent and after realizing that all signs of life disappeared, Kuroto muttered, “There is one more thing I haven't told you yet, although the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is the highest level of dojutsu a Uchiha can have with just his Yin chakra, it is only with his Yin chakra, this is still not over as there is another higher form of dojutsu that the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan can develop if the right conditions are met.”
…
Two days later, in a cave in the Land of Rain.
Poofs…
As the white smoke disappeared, a tiger-striped Kasai appeared before Uchiha Shinichi.
Looking at the familiar cat that was now injured and wrapped in bandages, Shinichi frowned, "Hey, why did you get all these injuries?"
As soon as Shinichi asked, the cat started crying tears of the waterfall and said, “Uwaaaahhhh, the tiger stripes do not work all the time, they can not fool the hunting dogs…"
Shinichi sighed, “Alright, first stop wiping your snot on my shirt, second, you are quite stupid for trying to fool a hunting dog.”.
“But... but.. You said that if I had a tiger sign, I would look very scary..”.
"I'm just joking buddy, getting some marks doesn't change the fact that you're still a cat."
“Then what do you think I should do?”
"First, you must give me the scroll sent by him, and for the second you must take a vacation to recover."
As soon as Shinichi said this, the cat stretched out its claws and asked, "Meow, if you say so, give me two thousand Ryo for the scroll!"
Shinichi's eyes widened as soon as the cat asked for the money, “Why did you raise the price? And how much do you ask of him? ”
Kasai said in the most natural tone, “I want to settle for three thousand Ryo, but he disagreed, we finally reached an agreement on two thousand Ryo. Here I do the work when injured so obviously the cost will be doubled, meow! ”
"If I didn't know better, I'd definitely think that all your injuries are your new plan scheme, greedy cat!"
As soon as Shinichi said this, all the cat fur stood up and sweat started to come out, “Ahahahaha... a-what are you talking about? I... I... I'm surprised you know such humor... Anyway, quickly give me the bill, I have to go, m.... My wound suddenly started to hurt!”
Shinichi narrowed his eyes as soon as he noticed the sudden change in the cat's behavior.
The two thousand Ryo banknotes that were in his hands were stopped in the middle of the road.
But the greedy cat realized that Shinichi seemed to have noticed something and suddenly snatched the two banknotes, threw the scroll towards Shinichi, and disappeared into a puff of smoke.
"Huh, this goddamn greedy cat!" – muttered helpless Shinichi.
Shinichi shook his head and unrolled it with a certain hand seal that had been chosen earlier by them, and after he had unrolled the scroll sent to him by Kuroto, and as he read the contents of the scroll, it was, Shinichi could not help but frown, “ Why did he ask for this? ”
“Has he gone mad? Why would he want such a thing, would he end up going crazy? Or does he think that the ritual ceremony will be a fireworks show that anyone can watch if they want?”
No matter how much he thought, Shinichi could not understand why Kuroto ordered such a thing.
This was because Akatsuki was an organization that even he as a member of the organization, had to be extremely vigilant, and Kuroto should have known this better than him, so why would he suddenly ask such a thing?
As far as Shinichi knew, Kuroto was the type of person who always preferred working in secret, so why would this sudden careless move destroy everything they had done to infiltrate Akatsuki?
Is the ritual so important?
No matter what Shinichi thought of this absurd order, Shinichi nevertheless decided to put his trust in Kuroto and decided to go to the location marked on the map he received with the scroll.
Shinichi would obviously measure whether the person sent by Kuroto fulfilled the task, and then decide whether he would take her to the ritual place, but if that person did not fulfill the task, then, then Shinichi obviously will not bring an incompetent person.with him to the site that will be filled with the main members of Akatsuki!
…
Three days later.
With a pause of travel and a break for the past three days, Shinichi finally arrived at a location marked on the map sent by Kuroto.
This is the border of the Fire Nation and the Rain Country, when viewed around this place is filled with lush green vegetation and dense forests and continuous rain from dark rain clouds.
As soon as he traveled a little more, the rain stopped and the sky cleared, Shinichi took off his rain gear consisting of a raincoat and a Bamboo Hat while grumbling inwardly, 'The Rain Country is truly a place unsuitable for human habitation.comfortably!'
Shinichi had always felt that the gloomy rain in the Rain Country was truly pitiful, as if the country itself was crying over the rain country's inhabitants, and Shinichi hated living in the Rain Country so much!
As Shinichi was coping with his depressed mood, he suddenly looked into the distance and saw a figure walking slowly towards him.
Moments later, the figure finally stood before Shinichi.
Looking at the person standing in front of him, Shinichi seemed to think.
The other party was a girl, her age was about fifteen to sixteen years of what Shinichi could judge, but what stood out from her was her extraordinarily beautiful yet cold appearance, the indifferent temperament of nobles, and the respectable aura.
From the looks of it, she was a white-skinned girl with sharp eyes, long black hair that was rolled all the way to her lower back, and currently tied in a ponytail, she was wearing a short white kimono with long sleeves, the white kimono has black flower prints with black obi tied, coupled with black full-length stockings, white bandages wrapped around from ankles to knees, a pair of black shinobi sandals, and a pair of black shinobi sandals, and a long Katana was tied around his waist.
Shinichi was sure that he had never seen her in his entire life, but he did not know why he vaguely felt that the Kunoichi standing in front of him was familiar, as if he had known her a long time ago.
'Surprisingly, why do I feel that I know who he is when this is obviously the first time, I saw him?'
Shinichi stopped thinking and asked, "So, who are you and what are you doing here?"
Kunoichi replied calmly. "I'm the one you should take to the ritual place."
Shinichi said coldly, "And why should I trust you?"
The kunoichi was completely unaffected by Shinichi's cold tone, and calmly replied, “You don't need to trust me, all you need to do is follow Kuroto-sama's instructions.”
The fact that the other party mentioned Hyuga Kuroto's name, lessened Shinichi's suspicions, and he immediately asked, “And what is your name? And why does she want you present during the Hiruko ritual?”
"My name…? i... I Uchiha Tsukihi.” – after pause, Tsukihi continued, “As for why Kuroto-sama wanted me to observe the ritual ceremony of Hiruko, it was because she was very interested in the experiment.”
“Uchiha Tsukihi!?” – Shinichi did not seem to hear Tsukihi's next words once he heard the name ‘Uchiha Tsukihi,’ Shinichi instantly activated his Sharingan and said coldly, “Mau repeated your name again?”
“Uchiha Tsukihi.” – Tsukihi states as fact.
“You sure you want to lie to me? I'm also an Uchiha, and the last time I checked, it doesn't seem like I know you, so who are you?” – Shinichi said coldly as he suddenly raised his hand and held Tsukihi's neck, lifting it above the ground, and speaking, “I suggest that you use the next ten seconds very carefully, because if I am not satisfied with what you have to do. Say in your defense, I will not be happy, then you will die!”
Kunoichi who was tied around his neck did not panic as expected, nor did he speak anything to defend himself, and just as Shinichi was about to exert force on his arm to break his neck, he also did not speak anything to defend himself, and just as Shinichi was about to exert force on his arm to break his neck, his onyx black pupils turned red with three tomoe spins inside.
