This can be said to be the long-cherished wish of the Uchiha clan. As one of the founders of Konoha Village, the Senju clan has produced two Hokages, while their Uchiha clan has not produced a single one.
Is their Uchiha clan weak? Not at all. Now, the Senju clan has already declined. Their Uchiha clan will definitely produce a Hokage this time.
Fugaku did not feel much joy in his heart. Although the rise of the Uchiha clan had always been his wish, his son's actions this time greatly disappointed him.
He actually joined forces with the Third Hokage against the clan. This was a betrayal of the clan. And this was the son he had always valued the most.
The blow to him was not insignificant.
He opened his mouth and asked. "Ryosuke, how do you plan to deal with Itachi?"
This matter could not simply be treated as if nothing had happened. Even as the clan leader, he could not do that.
The other two also silently watched.
With Itachi's crimes, he was already a traitor to the clan. If Uchiha Ryosuke was controlled, then not only would the Uchiha clan be unable to reach the top, but in the future, they would even become the puppets of the Third Hokage.
But Uchiha Ryosuke calmly said. "You handle it as you see fit. I have already dug out both of his eyeballs. After all, he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Without those two eyeballs, he is no longer much of a threat to the clan."
Fugaku heard that Ryosuke had already taken Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan, and he felt deeply helpless.
To awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan was an extremely rare occurrence in the clan, a genius that appeared once in a hundred years, yet he had become a traitor to the clan.
This also proved that his judgment was not wrong—his child was indeed a genius.
Itachi had a deep relationship with Shisui. Fugaku speculated that it was likely Shisui's death that led to Itachi awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan. Other than that, there shouldn't be any other possibility.
The awakening of the Mangekyō Sharingan required the sacrifice of a close friend.
Although he felt helpless in his heart, according to Ryosuke's intention, perhaps Itachi could be spared from the death penalty.
After all, he was his child. Even though he had made such a grave mistake, he did not wish for his death.
But even if he did not die, he still had to give Ryosuke and the clan an explanation.
"Then I will imprison him in the Uchiha clan's prison forever."
Ryosuke nodded and did not pursue the matter further. After all, the eyeballs were in his hands, and Itachi was no longer a threat. He wanted Itachi to witness how the Uchiha clan thrived under his leadership.
The other two had nothing more to say. This was Ryosuke's decision.
Moreover, no matter how much of a disgrace he was, he was still the clan leader's biological son. If he were executed, the clan leader would certainly feel distressed. And right now was the most critical moment for the Uchiha clan. Naturally, they hoped their clan leader would not be affected by this matter in the upcoming actions.
At this moment, Hachiyo also spoke. "Ryosuke, then I will gather all the Uchiha clan members and go to the Hokage building and other possible locations to search for Shisui's body, confirm the Third Hokage's crimes, and then we can openly put him on trial."
Speaking of this, he was also excited. Such a huge crime, even if the Third Hokage had murdered a fellow villager, that was an unforgivable crime. He could be removed from power immediately, and it was even possible for him to be executed.
But Ryosuke thought for a moment and added. "The search for Shisui is not something our Uchiha clan should do alone. We must also call upon the security forces of the other five great clans."
"After all, Konoha is so big, and finding Shisui is still somewhat difficult. Furthermore, even Danzo's Root must be thoroughly investigated."
Previously, Ryosuke had not acted against the Root. Those places should have been taken over by the Third Hokage.
Hachiyo hesitated. "If we inform the other clans, will they stand on our side? Or will they secretly hide Shisui's body?"
Although their Uchiha clan had previously distributed power to these clans, they had not formed a direct alliance or urged them to take action against the Hokage.
They had only sowed discord between them and the Third Hokage.
But Ryosuke smiled and said, "You don't need to tell them that the Third Hokage is already in our hands. Just tell them that Shisui was murdered and that they need to find the body immediately."
"Once the body is found, the truth will be revealed. By then, they will naturally know what to do. After all, they are not fools."
"Additionally, go find Yakushi Nono. She was once Danzo's subordinate, and now that the cursed seal of the Root has been lifted from her, she should know the locations of Danzo's Root base and laboratory."
Hachiyo was startled. "Understood. With detailed locations, the search will be much easier. I will go to her for information right away and also inform the five clan leaders about this news."
"Request their assistance. This way, we can quickly search all possible places where Shisui's body might be hidden."
At this moment, Ryosuke gave another reminder. "Once you find Shisui's body, you must preserve it. Do not let it decay. In the future, it may not be impossible to bring him back to life."
The last sentence made Hachiyo's expression change—can the dead really be revived?
However, now was not the time to worry about that.
"I will definitely preserve it well. I will set out immediately." After saying this, he prepared to return to the clan territory to gather people.
The other two remaining behind also had drastic changes in expression.
Ryosuke actually said that the dead could be brought back to life. That was something only the legendary Sage of Six Paths could do, right?
The Great Elder, filled with excitement, asked. "Ryosuke, if Shisui can be revived, does that mean your parents can also be revived?"
Ryosuke said helplessly. "That would be much more difficult, but it's not impossible..."
His original speculation was that in the future, he could obtain the Rinnegan.
Whether it was the Rinnegan obtained through the automatic cultivation system or the one from the "Many Children, Much Blessing" system, both had the ability to resurrect the dead.
As long as he combined with a strong enough woman, he could receive such a reward.
Shisui was also a pitiful person, a pillar of the clan. With his own abilities, he might even be able to use the Rinne Tensei without harm.
If the Rinnegan's Rinne Tensei technique was used, it could indeed bring people back to life.
In the original story, Nagato used Rinne Tensei to revive the people he had killed in Konoha.
It was just that the cost was high—after all, Nagato died after using it.
But the number of people Nagato revived was not just one or two, but at least thousands or even tens of thousands.
And Ryosuke only needed to revive Shisui, and his vitality was undoubtedly stronger than Nagato's. So there was still a chance to activate Rinne Tensei at a minimal cost, or even without harm.
As for his parents, their remains were long gone. However, just like in the original story with Uchiha Madara, even without a body, revival was still possible—it just required Edo Tensei.
For the sake of his grandfather, it wasn't impossible to find a way to revive them.
His grandfather was stunned and overjoyed. "Ryosuke, is that really possible?"
Ryosuke seriously replied. "It is possible, but not right now."
Hearing this, his grandfather was still happy. As long as there was a possibility, seeing his child again would be enough.
"I hope I can see them again in my lifetime."
Seeing his grandfather's expression, Ryosuke made up his mind—he would fulfill his grandfather's wish. At the same time, he reassured him. "Don't worry, I will. And I will also bring new family members to our home."
The Great Elder's eyes lit up—new family members?
He naturally knew about Ryosuke and the two Kumo prisoners he had subdued. As for them, he had no sympathy. Expanding the clan was their honor.
