Chapter 38: Death of Shisui

Just when Uchiha Shisui was about to say something, Uchiha Qiushan suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction where Uchiha Shisui had just come from.

I saw more than a dozen ninjas in black clothes rushing over quickly and standing not far away from them. They spread out and seemed to surround them, while an old man came slowly behind them.

When Uchiha Qiushan saw the old man’s attire, he already understood the origins of this group of people. They were Danzo Shimura and his Root Ninja.

Uchiha Qiushan took two steps forward, protecting Shisui and Itachi behind him, staring at the person who came, but said nothing.

Shimura Danzo walked out from behind the Root and saw Shisui falling to the ground. Although he didn’t say anything, everyone could see the satisfied smile on his face. He didn’t expect that he would actually catch up with Uchiha Shisui in the end. Although there were a few Uchiha brats around him who were in the way, as long as he could bring Uchiha Shisui back, then even if the head of the Uchiha clan came to find him, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

Looking at Shimura Danzo who was walking forward, Uchiha Qiushan asked: “Who are you? Why did Shisui become like this? Is it related to you?”

Although Uchiha Qiushan stood up, Shimura Danzo did not take these Uchiha brats seriously, and even turned a blind eye to Uchiha Qiushan’s questions. Instead, he waved his hand and said:

“Take Uchiha Shisui back.”

Qiu Shan saw that Shimura Danzo had no intention of paying attention to him, and the root members who followed him were even more eager to make a move. He took out a kunai and held it in front of him, and opened the three-magatama Sharingan. The three-magatama spun wildly in his eyes, and said in a cold tone: “Let’s see who dares!”

The Uchiha people who came with Uchiha Qiushan, saw Qiushan’s response, and they also took out their weapons and pointed at Shimura Danzo. Their attitude was self-evident.

For a moment, the two teams were on the verge of a fight, as if they were about to start fighting at the next moment.

When Shimura Danzo saw Uchiha Qiushan’s three-magatama Sharingan, his heart skipped a beat. He knew that the man in front of him was also a difficult person to deal with. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he said in a serious tone: “Uchiha Shisui is suspected of treason. We must arrest him and interrogate him.”

Uchiha Qiushan grasped the meaning of his words: “So, it is you who caused Shisui to be like this now!”

Danzo Shimura did not refute this question, “I want to arrest him. This is all because of his resistance. Go away, we still have to arrest Uchiha Shisui. Are you stopping us because of this treasonous act?”

Uchiha Qiushan did not give way: “Uchiha Shisui is the direct jonin of the Third Hokage. Even if he is arrested, it is the business of the Third Hokage and the Anbu. Besides, Uchiha Shisui is a member of the Uchiha clan. Even if he is arrested and interrogated, the head of our Uchiha clan has the right to request to participate.”

As he said this, he looked Shimura Danzo up and down and said, “You are neither the Third Hokage nor a member of the Anbu. Who gave you the right to arrest people from our Uchiha clan?”

Just when the two were deadlocked and Shimura Danzo wanted to take direct action, Uchiha Fugaku finally arrived with the elites of the Uchiha clan, followed by representatives of large and small families in Konoha Village. (Although the Uchiha clan had a bad relationship with them, it was still okay to invite them over. Moreover, the person who invited them told them that it was the root people of Shimura Danzo who were plotting against the family’s bloodline limit and secrets. If they dared to plot against the Uchiha clan today, they would plot against your family’s bloodline and secrets tomorrow.)

At the same time, the Third Hokage was also alarmed by the news that the Uchiha clan had invited representatives from many families, and he rushed over with a team of Anbu personnel.

Among the people who came together, there was naturally a medical ninja who was proficient in medical ninjutsu. At the request of Uchiha Fugaku and the signal of the Third Hokage, they began to treat Uchiha Shisui’s injuries.

After checking Uchiha Shisui’s condition, the medical ninja couldn’t help but shook his head and said, “The poison he was poisoned with is very rare. It’s the first time I’ve seen it. I can only use secret techniques to make him recover and let him speak, but there’s still no way to save his life.”

With the help of the medical ninja, Uchiha Shisui finally recovered a little and said with difficulty: “Third Hokage, clan leader, it was Shimura Danzo who murdered me in order to obtain my Mangekyō Sharingan. Moreover, I can feel that there is also a Sharingan hidden in the eye covered by the bandage.”

Hearing Uchiha Shisui’s words, the leaders of the families, big and small, looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew that Shimura Danzo had always coveted their family’s bloodline limits and secret techniques, and often used the title of the Third Hokage to ask them for people.

For the sake of the Third Hokage, they just accepted it. That’s how Shimura Danzo’s subordinates Aburame Tone and Yamanaka Fuu came. But they didn’t expect that he was so bold now and had already started killing and robbing openly.

The Uchiha clan members standing by were furious after hearing what Uchiha Shisui said. They all opened their Sharingan and glared at Danzo Shimura, demanding that he remove the bandages to verify whether what Uchiha Shisui said was true.

Although Danzo Shimura didn’t know how the Sharingan transplanted in his eye was discovered by Uchiha Shisui, he was not a fool. He knew that he had already incurred the wrath of the public and could not expose the transplanted Sharingan, otherwise, things would become even more difficult to resolve.

Seeing that it was impossible to bring Uchiha Shisui back, Danzo Shimura no longer had the intention to stay here. He just left a sentence: “I don’t need to explain what I do to anyone.” Then he turned and left, and the Root members who followed him covered his back.

At this moment, Uchiha Shisui finally couldn’t hold on any longer. His breathing became weaker and weaker. Then, he let out a long breath and died.

Uchiha Qiushan saw Shisui’s death, and saw Shimura Danzo’s attitude of not caring about the matter and wanting to run away after getting into trouble, and felt deeply angry.

In the original work, it was Danzo Shimura who bewitched Uchiha Itachi and gave him the task of annihilating the Uchiha clan. From the Sharingan on Danzo Shimura’s arm later, we can see how much benefit he gained from the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

Seeing that Shimura Danzo wanted to run away, Uchiha Qiushan could no longer bear it and shouted: “Old dog, you killed Shisui, where else do you want to run? Die.”
