The Senju Remnants Of The Uchiha Clan

October 13th, light rain.

On the third day after the nine-tails rebellion, the funeral of the fourth Hokage, his wife, and all victims was held in Konoha.

This disaster occurred in the center of the village, and the damage it caused was incalculable, even greater than the Shinobi World War that had just ended.

Beside Shiratori, Asuma was crying inconsolably; his mother, Biwako Sarutobi, who was responsible for Kushina's childbirth, also died that night.

All of them, the younger generation, except for the brilliant Shiratori, were transferred to a safe place along with the ordinary people, and they were not even qualified to participate in the war.

Shiratori patted Asuma's shoulder without saying anything, not knowing how to comfort him.

The funeral is over.

Shiratori left the crowd and turned towards the cemetery.

In the cemetery, there were many newly erected tombstones, among which were some of his acquaintances.

Among the Uchiha Jonin who went to support the nine-tails battlefield, five of them died.

He placed bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstone and stood there in silence for a long time.

"You little Uchiha brat, do you still have the nerve to come here?"

Hearing the voice, Shiratori looked up not far in front of him; no one was scolding him; there shouldn't be such idiots in the village now.

… … …

The five-year-old Itachi Uchiha stared blankly at the crushed flowers in front of him.

In front of him, two young men wearing ninja forehead protectors had angry faces.

"It's all because of you, the Uchiha Clan! Otherwise, how could that nine-tails come out?!" A young man pointed at Itachi Uchiha.

"Many of our Uchiha ninjas also died…" Itachi looked down at his feet.

"You deserve it!" Another young man said, wanting to take action directly. 

"You are the ones who caused this trouble in the first place! Huh? Many of you died? I am so happy! You deserve it! You deserve to die! You—"

Itachi's head snapped up, and he stared directly at the two of them.

The two young men were suddenly frightened by Itachi Uchiha's eyes. They wanted to teach this ignorant kid a lesson, but they didn't dare to do anything.

Itachi ignored them and squatted down to tidy up the trampled bouquet.

Compared with ninjas, more civilians died in the nine-tails rebellion.

Two of his playmates were killed by flying rocks, and today, he came to the cemetery to visit them.

Seeing the Uchiha brat in front of them acting as if nothing had happened, the two young men who had lost their loved ones in the turmoil were furious. They looked at each other, and one of them suddenly reached out to Itachi…

Pop.

His wrist was grabbed.

The two turned their heads and found that Shiratori had appeared beside them at some point.

"I understand the pain you two feel for losing your loved ones, but I'm really upset by what you said just now… Get out of here before I make up my mind to cut off one of your arms."

The two teenagers fled in panic.

Itachi stood up, holding the broken bouquet in his hand, nodded to Shiratori, then walked past Shiratori.

"Itachi." Shiratori called him.

Itachi stopped walking without looking back.

"What's wrong with you?"

There was a long silence.

"Shiratori…" Itachi turned around, his voice tinged with tears: "The village… Is not what you said!"

We are clearly trying our best to protect the village, we have clearly made painful sacrifices, and…

In his mind, this incident was just a fuse.

Normally, he followed Shiratori's teachings and was absolutely kind to everyone outside the clan, but what he got in return was mostly cold eyes and rejection.

Sometimes, he even wondered if he hadn't done well enough or if he had offended someone unintentionally…

"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, this may be partly… Our own problem as Uchiha." Shiratori said calmly.

He knew very well what kind of people the ninjas from Uchiha behaved outside.

Especially those radical guys, one or two of them acted peaceful and friendly in front of him, but when facing outsiders…

Even his eccentric uncle, Yashiro, almost caused Hyuga Gen to have a cerebral hemorrhage when they were in the southeast camp.

They are too arrogant.

Shiratori always told Itachi that Konoha was jointly founded by the Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan, so the village was the child of the Uchiha Clan, and the Uchiha Clan should do their best to protect it.

In this regard, the radical clansmen did much better than Itachi, but their ideas were slightly distorted.

In their opinion, since the Senju have retired, the Uchiha clan are the only ones left who founded the Konoha!

After rounding off, isn't Uchiha… The Royal family of Konoha?

No problem!

Shiratori was helpless about this. If he got along with people outside the clan with this mentality, it would be a miracle if they were not disliked…

And without talking about all that, let's just look at the people behind the nine-tails rebellion. The direct mastermind behind the incident was Obito Uchiha and the indirect mastermind behind the incident was Madara Uchiha.

So strictly speaking, although the Uchiha in the village did nothing, it doesn't seem so unfair to put the blame on the entire Uchiha Clan.

But…

What does this have to do with me, Shiratori?

He has been taken care of by friendly clan members since he was a child and grew up eating alternative meals from a hundred families. To him, the Uchiha Clan is his home.

If Itachi, in front of him, failed to be guided and finally fell into the arms of Konoha's high-level officials, he would kill him without hesitation.

Between the village and the clan, his butt was originally crooked, and it was crooked to an outrageous degree.

"Itachi, if you can't even stand these bad words now, then from now on… Forget it." Shiratori looked at Itachi as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Now that the fourth Hokage has died and the next Hokage has not yet been determined, there is a high possibility that the third Hokage will regain power."

"You mean… The third Hokage would do something bad to us?"

"No, the third Hokage is still very fair… At least he will be relatively fair on the surface. What I am worried about is Danzo Shimura. With the connivance of the third Hokage, he will definitely do some… Ahem, well, this is not something you should care about now."

Shiratori patted Itachi's head.

"Itachi, when you become a ninja in the future, you must obey the village's orders. No matter how unreasonable the orders are, you must not resist. After all, the clan relies on the village to exist…"

Shiratori, who had just killed three root messenger ninjas three days ago, said this earnestly.

"… I see." Itachi's answer was obviously hesitant.

After Itachi walked away, Shiratori also left the cemetery.

Tadashi Uchiha, ​​who had been hiding nearby, hurriedly followed.

"What is the people's attitude towards our Uchiha Clan?" Shiratori asked while walking.

"Very unhappy… But no one doubted us."

"That's enough… Is the post-war ninja meeting tomorrow?"

"Yes, clan head Fugaku will attend… But Shiratori, will the village's top leaders really suppress us?"

"Definitely! It is very likely that Danzo will take the lead and force us to move our clan to the edge of the village."

"What should we do?" Tadashi scratched his head in distress. He thought of what Shiratori did that day, and suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind: "Shiratori, go kill that old dog Danzo tonight!"

Shiratori: "…"

"Uncle Tadashi…"

"What's wrong?"

"Please stop hanging out with Uncle Yashiro in the future."
