A new figure appeared in the group interface.
Short black hair.
Calm but sharp eyes glowing crimson.
Both eyes—Mangekyō Sharingan.
A blue Uchiha Police Force uniform.
A green flak jacket with a raised collar.
He looked young.
But steady.
Mature.
The Group Reacts
[Uchiha Izuna]: Another Uchiha?
[Uchiha Izuna]: Entry requirement is Mangekyō, right?
[Shunshin Shisui]: ?
[Shunshin Shisui]: I awakened Mangekyō at fourteen.
[Shunshin Shisui]: I specialize in genjutsu and taijutsu.
[Shunshin Shisui]: …There's a strange transparent panel floating in front of me.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: That personality. That composure.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: This is indeed the strongest Uchiha of our era—Shisui.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Do you recognize me?
[Shunshin Shisui]: …Fugaku-sama?
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Correct.
[Shunshin Shisui]: You look older… did you also… die?
Fugaku's face twitched slightly.
Then Shisui noticed the final presence.
The old man sitting silently in the corner.
Quiet.
Yet overwhelming.
The pressure reversed the usual logic.
It wasn't "Can I defeat him?"
It was—
"Would I even survive him?"
[Elder Madara]: Uchiha Madara.
Shisui paused.
Then bowed slightly.
[Shunshin Shisui]: I pay my respects to the ancestor.
Madara gave a faint hum.
[Elder Madara]: Fugaku. Who is Uchiha Kagami?
[Uchiha Fugaku]: A disciple of the Second Hokage. He died during the Third Great Ninja War.
[Uchiha Izuna]: Tobirama's student? That butcher?!
Shisui blinked.
Things were…
Not normal.
System Explanation
He quickly scanned the floating system text.
[This group is formed by Uchiha Kai's left Mangekyō ability.]
[Group Name: Path of Uchiha Revival / Uchiha Recycling Station.]
[Members linked from past, present, and future.]
[Minimum entry requirement: Mangekyō Sharingan or Kage-level strength.]
"…What?"
Shisui had died only eight years ago.
He remembered Uchiha Kai vaguely.
A quiet child.
Always reading.
Unlike typical Uchiha who obsessed over combat.
Shisui had never interfered.
Not every Uchiha awakened the Sharingan.
People could have different paths.
But now—
Uchiha Kai had Mangekyō Sharingan?
And he had "abandoned the Uchiha heart"?
What did that even mean?
Shisui's Question
[Shunshin Shisui]: After my death… what happened to the clan?
[Shunshin Shisui]: Did Itachi fail to resolve things?
Fugaku narrowed his eyes.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Itachi knew about your death?
Shisui avoided the question.
[Shunshin Shisui]: What is the relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha now?
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Stable.
He gestured toward the live feed.
Hatake Kakashi leading
Uchiha Sasuke,
Uzumaki Naruto,
and Uchiha Kai on a mission.
On the surface—
Coexistence.
Shisui nodded slowly.
But then—
His Sharingan focused.
Seven Uchiha Kais simultaneously disarming Zabuza Momochi.
Attacks phasing through.
Blades cutting real flesh.
Arms falling.
[Shunshin Shisui]: …That technique.
[Shunshin Shisui]: That's my Body Flicker.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Yes. "Shunshin no Shisui." Your legend frightened Mist shinobi into retreat during the war.
Shisui smiled modestly.
[Shunshin Shisui]: Just rumors.
[Shunshin Shisui]: But I'm glad the technique still lives on.
[Shunshin Shisui]: If the clan still coexists with Konoha… then my choice was correct.
Fugaku's expression darkened.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Correct?
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Then explain something to me clearly.
Shisui explained.
He reported the Uchiha coup plan to the Third Hokage.
He was ambushed by Danzō.
Lost one eye.
Realized returning to the clan would ignite civil war.
So—
He chose suicide.
To remove the clan's strongest fighter.
To prevent rebellion.
And he entrusted the future to Itachi.
He didn't mention Kotoamatsukami.
But the implication was obvious.
He believed his death would prevent bloodshed.
Fugaku's eyes widened.
Then burned with fury.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: So it was YOU who planted the idea in my son?!
Shisui froze.
[Shunshin Shisui]: What… happened?
Fugaku's words dropped like iron.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: The clan planned resistance.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Itachi reported it to the Third.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Then he decided the solution was simple.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Erase the Uchiha clan.
Silence.
[Shunshin Shisui]: …What?
[Shunshin Shisui]: What do you mean?
Fugaku's voice trembled.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: He massacred the clan.
[Uchiha Fugaku]: Believing that if the Uchiha no longer existed, there would be no problem left.
Shisui's breathing stopped.
He wasn't foolish.
He loved the clan.
He had entrusted the future to Itachi.
But this—
This logic—
"There's a problem? Remove the people."
His Mangekyō Sharingan flickered violently.
For the first time since joining the group—
Shunshin Shisui felt rage.
