37 Chapter 37

"Time flies so fast."

Standing at the front gate of his home, Kaito looked up at the clear sky, a smile unwittingly appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Indeed, time had flown by. Since he unleashed his Water Bird Wild Dance to let those Foundation ninjas experience the 'Blade of Miquella', a whole month had stealthily passed by.

And within this month, many interesting things had happened.

The first, of course, was as Kaito had anticipated. He had taken out so many Foundation ninjas, and his methods seemed overly brutal.

So while Konoha openly praised his formidable strength, they likely whispered about his 'brutality' in private.

The words of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, on that night in front of so many people could naturally not be forgotten by these ninjas.

Similarly, there were rumors circulating in Konoha about Kaito's peculiar attitude towards the 'Nine-Tails'.

Kaito didn't need to think much about it, and guessed that it wouldn't be long before the village would be awash with the rumors that had already circulated once, about the Sharingan being able to control the Nine-Tails.

However, Kaito, who was mentally prepared, was not at all bothered by this. After all, he had dispatched more than a dozen of their ninjas to the afterlife.

And if the other side suffered such a significant loss without being able to retaliate, it was only natural for them to resort to idle talk.

As for killing softly, there indeed seemed to be a touch of that. But the Uchiha were already infamous, so a little more wouldn't make a big difference.

In fact, Kaito didn't want to stay in such a passive state all the time, but he didn't control the media machine, and he couldn't change it.

"However, these are not important. What's important are the changes in Shisui and the clan after that night."

That night, Shisui indeed complained about Kaito's heavy hand, because in his view, these people were all Konoha ninjas.

But Kaito asked him, if someone intends to harm you, or has even decided to kill you, would you wait to be killed?

This question left Shisui somewhat silent, and in the end, he didn't say much more. Moreover, it was meaningless to dwell on the past, especially since the people were already dead.

Especially the question posed by Kaito, it made him have to think seriously.

Now, although Shisui still had a lot of problems in terms of experience, in terms of logical thinking, he had gained a good improvement, probably because Kaito had instilled him with dialectics for a month.

After thinking about it for a week, he found Kaito in the middle of the night.

"I think I understand what you mean. If they succeed, the clan will become angry because of your death, angry at Konoha's recklessness, angry at Konoha's actions.

And Konoha probably also wants the Uchiha to experience such a situation, ultimately the clan and the village would explode with irreconcilable contradictions, right?"

Shisui's words made Kaito nod satisfactorily. Although it took a week to think clearly, this was a significant improvement compared to before.

"But I don't understand, why would Konoha do this?" After getting Kaito's acknowledgement, Shisui obviously wasn't satisfied: "Aren't the Uchiha part of Konoha?"

Kaito was really happy that he could ask this question, even though he once told him about the issues between the Second and Third Hokages.

But there are some things Shisui will definitely verify, and now it is probably the result of his verification.

"Haven't I told you about this? The origin of everything is too far in the past, and I think you should have almost completed your investigation by now, right?"

Facing this question, Kaito seemed very calm, and his next words made Shisui's heart sink completely.

"Let's not consider the distant issues, just talk about the problems in Konoha.

Have you noticed that since Hizashi Hyuga was sent away five years ago, the attitude of the Hyuga clan towards them has become much colder?

Not only the Hyuga clan, I'm afraid many clans have started to become indifferent, because they are all afraid of whether they will be the next.

In addition, you must have had contact with the members of the Root in the Anbu, right?

Those in the Root who are like machines without self-will, many of them happen to be from bloodline clans, how do you think the Root managed to get them?"

Shisui seemed to start understanding after hearing Kaito's words, although he didn't know how Kaito could have such an understanding of the Root.

But Shisui didn't intend to probe further. Everyone has their secrets, and digging to the root is never a good thing.

"So these clans are already dissatisfied with the Third Hokage. He should have resigned due to the huge losses of the Third Great Ninja War.

But after the death of the Fourth Hokage, he took up power again, and now he has created such a situation.

And the Third Hokage, for their own interests and so-called village stability, naturally need to think of ways to solve these problems.

The best way to solve these problems, I personally think, is to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and the best object is naturally us.

After all, the Uchihas are restless, and they don't like it."

Kaito's words made Shisui fall completely silent. This answer was something he really didn't want to accept, but at the moment it was the most logical.

In the following time, Kaito's words seemed to be confirmed. Even though Kaito didn't have an accident, the clan also noticed something wrong this time.

Voices of dissatisfaction within the clan began to intensify, even if the clever plan turned out to be clumsy, it's not necessarily a bad thing.

Although Kaito looked like he was fine, doing whatever he should do every day, Shisui knew that if this continued, there would be a big problem.

What Uchiha Fugaku is still doing is suppression and balance, and not only Shisui is dissatisfied with this approach, both the blood and the spirits are somewhat discontented now.

If this continues and once one side completely takes over the discourse, perhaps Uchiha Fugaku will join in without hesitation.

After all, as the clan head, standing on the side of the majority in the clan is the most normal thing.

"But how could I let such a thing happen?"

Kaito pondered in his heart, if such a thing happens, doesn't it mean that everything is back on the original track?

Kaito was extremely resistant to this kind of thing. Although there was still a bit of time before the night of annihilation, no matter what, Kaito had to speed things up further.

Some things are urgent and cannot wait, but some things must not be delayed.

He wouldn't think about solving the problem during the night of annihilation, he would want to sort it out in advance. Only in this way could he handle more problems!

"Today is a good day, and I hope there will be a good outcome today."

Kaito thought in his heart, and then he directly walked towards the residence of Uchiha Sō.

Today he is going to demand a result, and no matter whether Uchiha Sō will give him a suitable result, he will make this guy give him a satisfactory answer!

If persuasion by reason doesn't work, then persuade by 'reason'!

Although Kaito really didn't want to take action—mainly worried about affecting prosperity, he had already made psychological preparations and thought about how to do it.

If it really comes to that step, then it's better to have short pain than long pain. Let the future make up for the loss now.

With this in mind, Kaito had already arrived at the place where Uchiha Sō lived.

However, when Kaito entered, he found that in addition to Uchiha Sō, there were other people also in here.....
