Chapter 6

"Seal of Thunder!"

Uchiha Tamaken did not hesitate, placing his hand directly on Uchiha Itachi's neck and leaving a seal there.

This seal could absorb the chakra in Itachi's body into the seal. If someone tried to remove it without permission, it would trigger a powerful electric current that would penetrate the body of the person who placed the seal.

Itachi's face showed discomfort, as the sudden change in the flow of his chakra and the loss of physical strength made him feel uneasy.

"Is this enough?"

Shisui felt a bit heartbroken for his good friend.

He originally wanted Itachi to help him cover the Uchiha clan's retreat.

But Uchiha Tamaken insisted on sealing Itachi.

"There's one more, this is the last."

"Genjutsu: Sharingan!"

Uchiha Tamaken said.

At the same time, he used genjutsu to directly communicate a message to Itachi.

Shisui was startled, but he thought that if Uchiha Tamaken really wanted to kill Itachi, he wouldn't need to do this.

In less than five seconds, Itachi woke up, his face showing shock.

It turned out that Uchiha Tamaken had just used genjutsu to tell Itachi the plan.

Itachi was stunned by the shocking idea that Uchiha Tamaken was preparing to take the clan to another world.

"I will send you to a prepared base in another world. Although you won't have chakra, your taijutsu skills will be enough for you to survive there."

"In three days, the Uchiha clan will move there. You should go first to confirm the situation and ensure safety."

After saying this, Uchiha Tamaken directly opened a portal to the One Piece world.

Then, under Shisui's stunned gaze, he threw Itachi through the portal and closed it immediately.

"Is Itachi really that dangerous?"

"Does it need to go this far?"

Shisui could see that Uchiha Tamaken was determined to completely eliminate Itachi as an unstable factor.

He felt insulted!

He had activated the Mangekyou Sharingan, but he hadn't been treated like this.

But Itachi was being seriously targeted, and he felt very confused.

"Continue your mission and ensure the plan proceeds safely."

"If there's a mistake, the Uchiha and Konoha will go to war, and many will die."

Uchiha Tamaken didn't explain.

Should he tell him that if things continued, Itachi's hands would be stained with the blood of the Uchiha clan?

Are the people of Konoha human, but the Uchiha are not?

"Understood!"

Hearing Uchiha Tamaken's words, Shisui calmed down.

Although he was annoyed, Itachi was definitely safe, so it was fine.

The mission to retreat was more important!

......

"Itachi has also lost contact!"

Danzo's brows furrowed.

Today, Itachi did not arrive as scheduled, which made him very angry.

He couldn't tell if Shisui and Itachi had been discovered by the Uchiha clan or if they had defected to the Uchiha side.

"Danzo-sama, the Uchiha clan seems to be purchasing large amounts of medical supplies and food."

"However, there has been no movement regarding ninja tools."

The person in charge of monitoring the Uchiha reported to Danzo.

In recent days, the Anbu and Root had been working almost non-stop, covering almost all of Konoha.

Except for the Uchiha district, which they couldn't penetrate, the rest of the areas were under Anbu surveillance.

While dealing with the Uchiha, Danzo didn't forget to target other clans, such as the Hyuga.

During the last division of the Senju clan's assets, the Hyuga and Uchiha were excluded.

The main targets of this generation were the Senju, Uchiha, and Hyuga clans. Recently, due to the incident with the Cloud Village envoy, the current Hyuga clan leader, Hiashi, lost his brother, Hizashi.

The relationship between Konoha and the Hyuga clan was not good.

So they needed to be cautious.

"What are the Uchiha planning!"

Danzo was very frustrated.

Losing contact with two spies had completely stripped him of his control over the Uchiha.

The Uchiha's strong exclusion had left very few of their people within the clan, making it difficult to gather information.

"Send people to openly investigate inside the Uchiha district."

Danzo finally ordered.

This would further escalate the conflict.

But without understanding the Uchiha's situation, he couldn't plan the next move.

Although he wished the Uchiha would die soon, it was best to avoid a war if possible.

After all, a real war would cause heavy losses for Konoha, and the hyenas surrounding them would take a significant toll on Konoha.

The benefits gained from the Uchiha might not be enough to compensate for the losses!

"Yes!"

The dozen or so Root members immediately responded.

Then they disappeared in front of Danzo, starting to carry out his orders!

......

"Kakashi, coming to the Uchiha district now seems a bit troublesome!"

Maito Gai frowned and said to Kakashi.

Even he, who was slow to react to such matters, could feel the growing tension between the village and the Uchiha.

He didn't know why Kakashi had invited him today to visit the Uchiha district to pay respects to Obito.

"Sigh, I don't know if we'll have this opportunity again."

Kakashi said with a complex expression.

His team was mainly responsible for external missions, and the Anbu's original duty was also external, while the police force handled internal matters.

Only Root was special, handling both internal and external matters, and their actions were very secretive.

But recently, a large number of Anbu had been recalled to Konoha, and with the loss of contact with his subordinate, Itachi, he knew something was happening in the village.

Including the mission he received yesterday, which instructed them to investigate the Uchiha's internal situation by any means necessary.

He knew that a war between the village and the Uchiha was likely, but his bond with Obito made his feelings about the clan complex.

"Let's finish the memorial quickly and leave. I feel like they don't welcome us here!"

Gai said.

He didn't know much about the situation; it was only spreading within the Anbu.

"Kai, I'm very happy to see you."

But at that moment, someone suddenly spoke.

Gai's face immediately brightened upon hearing the familiar voice.

"Tamaken, what are you doing here!"

Gai turned around, seeing Uchiha Tamaken, and immediately greeted him warmly.

Tamaken was from their year, though a year younger. But during the war, almost all newly graduated genin were sent to the battlefield.

The division of years wasn't as clear as it was with Naruto and his generation, so Tamaken was very familiar with Kakashi and Gai.
