Konoha Tatsuno

After a while, Shisui walked out of the Hokage Building with a slightly excited expression.

"stop water"

On the street, Shisui, who had just walked out of the Hokage Building, heard someone calling from behind.

"Dragon Field"

Turning around and looking in the direction of the sound, I happened to see Tatsuno on the other side of the street who had just walked out of the sealing class office building.

"Shisui, did you just come out of the Hokage Building?"

The look on Long Ye's face was slightly surprised, and the two of them walked side by side and whispered.

After staying in the sealing class for such a long time, he rarely saw people from the Uchiha family coming to the Hokage Building.

"It was Hokage-sama who called me here," Shisui said.

"Lord Hokage?"

Long Ye frowned slightly.

Regarding the third generation looking for Shisui, Tatsuno instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"Did the third generation invite you to join ANBU?"

After pondering for a while, Tatsuno roughly guessed what was going on.

"how do you know?"

Shisui felt extremely surprised.

The third generation just came to discuss this matter with him. It should be impossible for Tatsuno to get the news from other places in advance, so how did he know?

"guess"

Tatsuno curled his lips.

Tatsuno did not want to comment on the idea and approach of the third generation.

This is the typical politician's thinking of those in power. The starting point may be good, but it puts the middleman Shisui at a disadvantage.

This decision also laid the foundation for Shisui and Itachi's future tragic lives.

Longye would never be willing to be such a pawn.

However, from the perspective of the village, this choice may be the least costly at present, but the long-term accumulation of conflicts will eventually erupt in the most violent way.

"Guess what?"

Shisui was stunned, obviously not expecting Tatsuno to answer like this.

"Shisui, given the current relationship between the village and the Uchiha family, have you ever thought that if you join the Hokage ANBU, your future situation may be very difficult!"

However, Tatsuno ignored Shisui's reaction and turned to ask solemnly.

After hearing this, the expression on Shisui's face slowly calmed down, and he pursed his lips and did not answer immediately.

It can be seen from Tatsuno's questions that he really understands the relationship between the village and the Uchiha family.

No matter where his information comes from, this knowledge and knowledge alone are enough to make people sit up and take notice.

Moreover, from Tatsuno's tone and eyes, Zhisui also heard the concern and worry in it.

"Tatsuno, I understand what you mean, but I've thought about all this, and I can handle it." The expression on Zhishui's face gradually warmed up, and he said firmly.

"Do you have to do this?" Long Ye said with a frown.

"There is no one in the Uchiha clan who is more suitable than me! We need a middleman between the village and the family!" Shisui nodded.

Seeing this, Tatsuno stopped. He turned around and patted Zhisui on the shoulder. He said solemnly: Zhisui, since you have made your decision, I won't say more!

However, one thing I still want to tell you is that you should not shoulder many things by yourself. Blindly taking care of everything may not be really good for others, and your choice may not be what they want! "

After saying that, Tatsuno ignored the stunned Shisui and left first.

Behind him, Zhisui watched Tatsuno's leaving figure quietly, paused for a few seconds before taking steps to leave again.

Returning to the family clan, Shisui did not return to his home, but walked towards the home of the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku.

"Brother Zhishui?"

There was a knock on the door, and it was Itachi who opened the door for Shisui. When he saw Shisui standing outside the door, Itachi's face was obviously surprised.

Although the two of them had a lot of contact in private, Shisui rarely came to Itachi directly like this.

"It's Itachi. Is the patriarch at home?"

Shisui's eyes stayed for a moment on Sasuke, who was slowly crawling beside Itachi's feet. He smiled and reached out to touch Sasuke's little face, and then he spoke.

"Father is in the house"

Itachi turned sideways and led Shisui into the house.

"Shisui is here"

Inside the house, Uchiha Fugaku, who heard the sound, greeted Shisui.

Uchiha Shisui is the No. 1 younger generation in the family, and his talent and potential cannot be underestimated even by Uchiha Fugaku, the patriarch of the family.

What's more, Shisui and Itachi have always had a good relationship, and Fugaku has always regarded Shisui as someone who firmly supports him.

"Patriarch"

Shisui came to Uchiha Fugaku and bowed respectfully before kneeling down and closing the door.

"Shisui, what are you doing here at this time?"

Fugaku looked at Shisui and asked aloud.

"Clan leader, Hokage-sama just called me over."

Shisui said softly.

"Oh? What does Sandai want from you?"

Fugaku crossed his hands on his chest and frowned slightly.

Shisui said: "Hokage-sama wants to invite me to join ANBU"

Fugaku: "Join the ANBU? Is it the ANBU directly under Hokage-sama? Or the root department?"

Shisui: "He is an ANBU directly under Hokage-sama"

"You already agreed?"

Fugaku stared at Shisui for a moment and said.

After a few seconds of silence, Shisui said, "Yes."

Looking at the young Shisui opposite, Fugaku frowned and said word by word: "Shisui, do you understand the purpose of the Third Generation asking you to join the ANBU directly under the Hokage?"

Shisui nodded and said: "After experiencing the Nine-Tails Rebellion this time, the village's strength has been greatly reduced, and it can no longer withstand the next torment. The Hokage probably wants me to act as a communication bridge to ease the relationship between the family and the village. situation between

Fugaku's brows softened slightly, and he said slowly: "Shisui, it's great if you can understand this!

You must have heard the rumor about the Nine-Tails Rebellion. The relationship between the village's senior officials and the family has been difficult to ease.

Due to the current situation, the third generation will find a way to stabilize our Uchiha clan first. He only regards you as a tool to ease the relationship between the family and the village, and will not truly trust you, because you are also an Uchiha! "

"Patriarch, don't worry!"

Shisui responded respectfully.

After saying that, he stood up and saluted Fugaku, then turned and left silently.

Looking at Shisui who was about to step out of the room, Fuyu said: "Shisui, you have to remember one thing. No matter what the final relationship between your family and the village is, you must always remember that you are a noble Uchiha. !”

"Oh, I see!"

Zhisui's figure stood still. After pausing on the spot for a few seconds, he responded softly and then left.

Looking at Zhisui's leaving figure, the look on Fuyu's face was slightly complicated.

"Brother Shisui"

In the hall outside the house, Itachi, who had already held little Sasuke in his arms, saw Shisui coming out and quickly went to greet him.

Zhisui said nothing, smiled, reached out to touch Zhisui and Sasuke, and then walked away.

Behind him, Itachi's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he felt that the smile on Shisui's face was a little different from before.

One day later, Uchiha Shisui officially reported to the Hokage ANBU.
