Still Water, I'm your grandpa!

Chapter 3 Still Water, I'm your grandpa!

"Jin, you're saying those strange things again!"

Along with those slightly helpless words, a round nose, extremely rare in the Uchiha clan, instantly caught Uchiha Jin's eye.

"...Isn't this Shisui? What brings you here to hang around?"

Uchiha Jin was quite calm at the moment. He had noticed Uchiha Shisui's arrival back at the training ground. Clearly, this guy had no intention of concealing his presence. Therefore, he was very curious as to why this guy who had been avoiding him would suddenly come to find him.

Has my "family" plan failed?

"Your words are too dangerous. The atmosphere in the village and the clan is becoming increasingly tense. Now you've even mentioned that taboo guy. Do you know that this will drag the clan into the abyss?"

The gloom on Uchiha Shisui's face had now settled on his brows, and the red light deep in his melancholy eyes was growing stronger.

Madara Uchiha!

This was a taboo subject in the village, and if it weren't for this guy causing the First Hokage's untimely death, the First Shinobi World War wouldn't have started so early.

Even though the Uchiha clan did not follow Madara Uchiha and were not openly implicated in that incident, they secretly became one of the deepest reasons for the criticism of many ninja clans in Konoha.

It can be said that Madara Uchiha's existence is something that both the Uchiha clan and the entire Hidden Leaf Village need to completely bury in the dust of history.

If Madara Uchiha was like this, then the existence of the "Mangekyou" is even more so. This evil bloodline limit, known as the "power of God," was something only Uchiha Shisui truly understood—how powerful and evil this forbidden power was.

If the Uchiha clan members were to understand this power and obtain the forbidden and evil method of awakening their Sharingan, it would be an even more destructive path leading the Uchiha clan to ruin and madness.

but.

What reassured Uchiha Shisui somewhat was that Uchiha Jin seemed unaware of how to activate the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Even so, this information is still the most taboo of taboos.

However, after becoming the head instructor of the clan training camp, Uchiha Jin not only continued to promote his extremely radical theory, but now he is openly proclaiming these taboo messages.

How can this be!

The Uchiha clan's arrogance stems from their powerful bloodline limit. If the Uchiha children were still relatively ignorant in their early years, there might have been a possibility of them being "educated" by the great Will of Fire.

However, with the appearance of Uchiha Jin, this path was completely blocked.

Now, they are openly proclaiming the existence of Madara Uchiha and the "Mangekyou Sharingan," which will only make the young Uchiha children arrogant because of the clan's powerful bloodline, making the already proud Uchiha even more paranoid and difficult to integrate into the village.

All of this will inevitably lead to a further deterioration of the Uchiha clan's image, ultimately causing a greater rift in the relationship between the clan and the village.

"Especially at this increasingly tense time... why... why can't my people understand the greatness of the Will of Fire?"

As Uchiha Shisui thought about this, his heart grew even more bitter, and his gaze toward Uchiha Jin became increasingly filled with disappointment and frustration.

"Stop the water!"

Although Jin was very wary of Shisui's abilities, upon hearing the reproachful words, he suddenly stood up and slammed the fruit drink in his hand to the ground.

"I'm your grandfather! How dare you talk to me like that!"

Uh……

Uchiha Shisui, who was about to confront Jin, suddenly paused, realizing Jin's other special identity as he recalled why he usually didn't want to deal with him.

"The watch!"

The gloom on Shisui's face vanished instantly, replaced by a blush of embarrassment and annoyance, as she forced a rebuttal.

no way.

The pronunciation of Uchiha Jin's name is extremely similar to that of his grandfather, Uchiha Kagami, and their generational relationship is truly undeniable.

(P.S.: I don't care, the pronunciation is the same, and I won't accept any arguments.)

"Blood is thicker than water!"

Uchiha Jin's tone became increasingly impassioned, as if Shisui had committed some heinous crime, leaving the already bewildered Shisui momentarily stunned.

That's right.

Although Shisui was not much older than Uchiha Jin, given the special circumstances of Jin's lineage being born and raised late, in terms of bloodline generation, he could indeed be considered Shisui's grandfather.

It's just that Uchiha Kagami died too young; otherwise, the scene of him calling Shisui his brother would have been extremely interesting.

This situation is somewhat awkward for Shisui, as Jin is indeed of the same generation as his grandfather in terms of bloodline, and the pronunciation of their names is also very similar.

Therefore, whenever Shisui clashed with Uchiha Jin, he would inexplicably find himself in an awkward situation, not knowing what to do.

Shisui originally avoided Uchiha Jin as much as possible, but recently the relationship between the clan and the village has become increasingly tense, and the influence of Uchiha Jin, the "Golden Smash Faction", has become something he can no longer ignore.

Within the Uchiha clan, the "radical faction" already held the upper hand and the initiative, while the "moderate faction" was only concerned about the losses and benefits after the coup.

In this situation, Uchiha Jin acted like a mastermind, subtly influencing his clan members with his "evil" words through the rapidly improving strength of the young Uchiha. He even shamelessly distorted and smeared Shisui's beloved "Will of Fire".

"The so-called Konoha, the so-called Hokage!"

The name Konoha comes from the Senju clan, while the title of Hokage originates from the symbol of the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Flame Fan!

The Uchiha clan, bearing the Uchiha Flame Fan Clan crest, embodies the true Will of Fire!

Especially now that the Senju clan has fallen, my Uchiha clan must take the initiative to uphold the banner of the "Will of Fire" and restore Konoha to its rightful order.

……

Nonsense!

Having been deeply influenced by the fire consciousness since childhood, how could Uchiha Shisui accept such absurd remarks? But he never expected that Uchiha Jin's remarks would be so popular, and in the past two years, they have been passed on from one Uchiha child after another, and have actually caused several 'neutral' members to switch to the 'radical' camp.

Therefore, Uchiha Shisui could no longer sit idly by. He could not stand by and watch his clansmen descend into the abyss, nor could he stand by and watch his beloved village suffer great losses as a result.

"Don't give me that nonsense!"

With a flushed face and a thick neck, Shisui forced himself to interrupt Uchiha Jin, continuing in a pleading tone.

"More and more clansmen are joining the radical faction; if this continues, the Uchiha clan is truly doomed!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Shisui's words, Uchiha Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he excitedly pressed for an answer.

"Someone in my clan wants to join my 'radical faction,' how come I didn't know?"

Uh……

Uchiha Shisui's eyes narrowed sharply, and the pain on his face suddenly froze on the spot. He then realized an even more terrifying problem.

"Elder Sha's lineage kept calling for an armed coup at the last clan meeting..."

Although the hope seemed extremely slim, Uchiha Shisui still wanted to do his best to persuade the other party. If this "Gyokusai-ha" could be the first to change, it would definitely be the best benchmark for the Uchiha clan.

pity……

The already slim hope for Shisui became even more unattainable with Uchiha Jin's simple question.

really!

"Are you talking about that group of 'moderates' who just spout nonsense?"

Uchiha Jin rolled his eyes casually, then lay back in his chair, looking rather bored, and scolded him with a look of disappointment.

"What can a bunch of cowards accomplish? They talk about armed coup all day long, but they've never actually done anything. Even you know about this, how could the Hokage not be on guard?"

"Those cowardly trash, if they had any guts, they should follow me. If we raid the Hokage Building tonight, we'd have at least a 50% chance of succeeding!"

Well... everything is half and half. It either succeeds or fails. In any case, Uchiha Jin can accept the final result.

Oh yeah!

"It's not that I look down on those 'moderate' guys, but if they dare to stage a coup within three years, I'll cut off my head and give it to you!"

"you……"

Uchiha Shisui stared blankly at Uchiha Jin, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

Makes sense!

Although Uchiha Jin's words seemed absurd and offensive, Uchiha Shisui thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed true.

Without external influence, it wouldn't be easy for the "radicals" within the clan to gain the confidence to stage a coup...

That's not right!

Doesn't that make Jhin's existence even more dangerous?

Swish!

Because of the sudden and intense fluctuation of Uchiha Shisui's inner emotions, a special pattern, like a blade, unconsciously appeared in Uchiha Shisui's pupils.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan

open!
