Chapter 157 - Chapter 156: Uchiha’s trump card  (part2)

"Of course not, I promised not to share about my Mangekyo ability unless absolutely necessary to my father. Till this date, you are the only person who knows about my Mangekyo ability other than my father. Just as it is written in the letter, I had just told him that we had a trump card which can do those things," Shisui said.

"But you can only use that once a decade. We can't use that ability without much thinking," Fugaku said.

"Please read that letter fully," Shisui said.

Fugaku nodded his head and started reading the letter once again.

...

"But brother said that we had a trump card up our sleeves with which we could easily change the mind of a person, their thoughts, even their personality.Since we have such a powerful trump card, why don't we remove the problem from its root? The reason why Danzo could be so openly offensive to many clans is that he has full support from Lord Third.

So if we use our trump card and make Lord Third a little more reasonable, just enough to find Danzo's wrongdoings bad and actually punish him rather than giving him a false punishment.

And since all of the clans also have problems with Danzo, we can also use the same tactic as him and turn the whole village against him, just like he tried to do with us.

This is just a simple idea of mine. I am sure you have better plans to tackle the situation, but I think this is the most efficient and swift way to handle the situation.

Kaida Uchiha"

"You were right, Shisui. The method was so simple, but because of our big egos, we could never have thought of such a method. Allying with other clans and taking the Hokage on our side too using your Kotoamatsukami, we can easily corner Danzo," Fugaku said with a chuckle, which was a way different from his usual stern behavior.

"But to make preparations for this plan, we need time. I don't think Danzo will sit still when we will do that," Shisui said.

"Yes, that's why we have to first target the main objective for this plan to be successful," Fugaku said.

"Using Kotoamatsukami on the Hokage himself."

"Increase the Hokage's animosity and distrust toward Danzo while reducing his sense of alliance with Danzo, but ensure that the change in his personality remains barely noticeable. Even if your ability can't be traced, the change in behavior may point many fingers at us if this happens when we make our move," Fugaku said.

"Don't worry, Fugaku-sama, I understand," Shisui said.

"Also, ask Kaida and your family to shift to my house until everything settles down," Fugaku said.

"Umm, there is a slight problem in doing that," Shisui said.

"What is it?"

"Kaida is not in the village," Shisui said."What do you mean he is not in the village... No, tell me that he didn't actually decide to continue the mission," Fugaku asked.

"He is one stubborn fellow. Once he decides to do something, he completes that thing," Shisui said, shrugging his shoulders.

"Are you insane? The whole Root may go after him if they find out what happened. How can that boy be smart and dumb at the same time?" Fugaku said.

"Well, that will only happen if Root finds out what had happened. According to them, Kaida left the village alone. I was in my house, and no one from the clan went with him. So even if they somehow learn about the death of those four ninjas, Root may think that they fell into an ambush and died, while the remaining three ninjas are chasing Kaida since they are alive. This may give us some time for the preparations. It was Kaida's plan, also Minoru-sama had taken responsibility for Kaida's security, so there is nothing to worry about," Shisui said.

"Just complete your task as soon as you can, then take two Jonins with you to bring back your smart-ass brother. Even if Minoru is powerful, he will not be able to save Kaida if Danzo becomes serious," Fugaku said.

"Yes, Fugaku-sama, I will go to the Hokage's office after sending my mom and Yomi to your house," Shisui said.

"Okay," Fugaku said. Shisui then went out of the headquarters like he had only talked about weather conditions with Fugaku.

After Shisui left, Fugaku rang the bell on his desk three times. Suddenly, two ninjas with their faces hidden by masks appeared in front of him."Initiate plan Illusion now," Fugaku said.

"To which extent, sir?" one of the ninjas asked. Fugaku went silent for some time, then said, "At full capacity." The ninja became shocked and then looked toward Fugaku like he wanted to ask something.

"Don't worry, we are not going to fight directly. I have some other plans, but make sure no mistakes are made. This is an S-level mission," Fugaku said.

"Yes, Fugaku-sama," the ninjas said and then disappeared from the office.

Fugaku then came out of his office and went to the underground basement. After scanning his hand on the seal and placing a tag full of seals on the door afterward, if someone tried to open the door without doing this, the seals in the room would activate and remove the ability of every person in there to use chakra while paralyzing them as well.

After Fugaku performed all these things, the door opened, and he went inside.

...

Shisui went out of the clan headquarters and saw many Jonin going out of the headquarters as soon as he left.

"Why did I bother to act?" Shisui said, shaking his head, then used the Body Flicker Jutsu to go where Yomi was getting her classes.

"Isao, long time no see, brother," Shisui said to Isao, Yomi's teacher, as soon as he went to the training area where Yomi was training.

"Shisui, what are you doing here?" Isao asked.

"Is that something you should say when you meet an old friend after so much time?" Shisui asked as if he was hurt.

"I am not in the mood for jokes right now. You are disturbing my student," Isao said.

"Sorry, I will be serious now. I am here to take Yomi back, also she will be unable to come for the classes for some time. I will tell you when she can come back afterward," Shisui said, completely serious.

"Did something happen?" Isao asked.

"Just a small clan matter, nothing serious," Shisui replied, but when he said it was a clan matter, it was enough indication for Isao not to ask anything further. He turned to Yomi and said...
