My Life as Itachi's Crow

Chapter 102: The Clash of Susanoo

Konoha, the crescent moon was dim.

The crow, after sending off Tobirama, returned to the Uchiha clan grounds using the Flying Thunder God Technique. It leisurely landed on Uchiha Itachi, who had just seen off a group of guests.

After the clan meeting ended, three consecutive groups of people had come to visit Fugaku. Their words, both explicitly and implicitly, all hoped that Uchiha Fugaku would agree to launch a coup. Some even tried to persuade Uchiha Itachi…

Kitahara hung on the cub's shoulder. After he walked through the door, the drowsiness from its long sleep hadn't completely faded, and for a moment, it forgot to mention the matter of them forming a justice league today.

The cub's mood was also not quite right, somewhat absent-minded.

Fugaku was sitting cross-legged in the living room. He looked up and saw his eldest son and Kitahara return, saying in a deep voice, "Itachi, you've worked hard. Go have dinner first!"

"Dad…"

Itachi could see his father's fatigue and anxiety at a glance. His original intention to persuade his father couldn't help but stop, and he changed the subject, "Let's go together!"

"You and Kitahara go first, I'm not…"

Before Uchiha Fugaku could finish speaking, a knock suddenly came from the door again, and a clear voice reached their ears, "Senior Fugaku, Itachi, it's Shisui."

"..."

Uchiha Fugaku supported his forehead. He shouldn't have held any clan meeting today!

As a descendant of the moderate Uchiha Kagami, what could Shisui be doing here at this time? He was probably here to request him to carefully reconsider the relationship between the clan and the village again.

Fugaku waved his hand with a headache, "Itachi, go open the door!"

The hardliners in the clan needed his appeasement to prevent them from rioting; the moderates in the clan needed his persuasion to prevent them from becoming a surrender faction.

The old father didn't know what to do with himself now…

His brain was about to turn to mush…

To hell with it! The aftermath of a victory would also be very tricky. After all, Konoha wasn't just the Uchiha clan… What Fugaku wanted was to take over a complete Konoha, not a village with low loyalty that could rebel again at any time.

And even if they launched a coup, the possibility of failure was not non-existent. Infiltrating Konoha and escaping was a different concept from attacking Konoha's leadership. Orochimaru was so bold, but did he dare to attack the Hokage?

Waiting for Itachi to grow up wasn't out of the question, but the emotions of the hardliners in the clan were becoming more and more severe. They would sooner or later become crazy in order to grasp power... If something went wrong again in the future, Hiruzen Sarutobi's promise was very likely to change.

After Uchiha Shisui entered, compared to the hardliners, he just calmly stated his purpose, "Lord Hokage wishes to see you…"

"..."

Fugaku's eyes instantly became sharp. Although he knew Shisui was loyal to the village, the clan meeting had just been held in the afternoon, and the Third Hokage already knew the news by evening... Uchiha Shisui had almost made it clear that he chose to stand with the village!

Uchiha Itachi's level of thinking was no less than his father's. He quickly figured out the connection and looked at his little companion in surprise, "Shisui, you…"

"Itachi, don't worry!" Uchiha Shisui smiled at the youth, then turned to look at Fugaku, "Lord Third is waiting not far outside the clan grounds. I've checked; he's alone."

This meant it was a private meeting.

It sounded like Uchiha Shisui hadn't completely sided with the village either. Perhaps he had only reported that the situation within the Uchiha clan had suddenly become tense, and might not have mentioned the coup.

This was in line with Shisui's usual style.

Uchiha Fugaku gave Shisui a meaningful look and nodded, "Coincidentally, I also want to hear what Lord Hokage has to say."

"Dad, I'll go with you…"

"No need."

Uchiha Shisui and the old father spoke almost in unison. After they finished speaking, they couldn't help but look at each other and fall silent.

Fugaku walked to Itachi's side, reached out and plucked a blade of grass from Kitahara's wing, and said with a smile, "You and Kitahara go eat dinner first, then give it a bath! It's been outside all day and must be very tired…"

"Caw!"

The crow nodded frantically. The place it had met Kisame Hoshigaki today was the Land of Artisans. The weather was so warm that it slept in the wild for a whole afternoon and felt extremely uncomfortable when it woke up.

"Yes."

At dinner time, apart from Sasuke, the ignorant little cub who was quite active, both Mikoto and Itachi at the table were very quiet. Kitahara's mood was extremely tired.

When I take a bath later, I'll tell him about Kisame Hoshigaki recruiting people. I'll listen to the little cub's opinion, and by the way, ask what happened today... Why does everyone look so worried and stressed... Is their pressure greater than mine?

While everyone at the table had their own thoughts…

Boom!

The ground suddenly shook violently!

Uchiha Sasuke, holding a bowl of porridge, swayed and fell to the floor!

Kitahara instantly took flight. The first thing it thought of wasn't to use its sage art chakra to radiate outwards and perceive, but the trouble of probably having to take a bath with the little cub later…

"Let's go out and see what's happening!"

Uchiha Itachi quickly helped Sasuke up, handed his younger brother to his mother, casually grabbed the crow, held it in his arms, and anxiously pushed open the door and rushed out!

Father and Shisui haven't been out for long, could it be that the talks with the Third Hokage broke down?

This set of actions was as smooth as flowing water. Before Kitahara could react, the cold wind outside made it involuntarily shrink its neck…

The earth was still shaking…

Many clan members had already run out, calling for the members of the Police Force to assemble and evacuate non-combatants to safety… Could it be another Nine-Tails rampage?

Kitahara instantly drew in natural energy, converting the chakra in the cub below it into sage art chakra. The black feathered wings on Itachi's back opened, and he flew towards the place where the battle was happening, under the gaze of a group of Uchiha clan members.

There was no need to use chakra to sense. Even in the dark night, even though the moonlight wasn't bright today, one could see it with ordinary eyes…

Uchiha Itachi was somewhat speechless, "That is…"

A golden-yellow giant as tall as a mountain!

Fighting with it was a similarly tall green giant!

Just an ordinary blow was earth-shattering, let alone two giants of the same size fighting together. For the ninjas of Konoha, this was heavenly might!

Kitahara's pupils gradually dimmed. The Mangekyo Sharingan's strongest ocular jutsu, which drew out Yin Release to form a tangible object… Susanoo!

Currently, the only Mangekyo Sharingan in Konoha on the surface was Uchiha Itachi's pair… The hidden pair of Mangekyo Sharingan belonged to Uchiha Fugaku. And the extra pair?

Uchiha Shisui…

When did he awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan, and why did he hide this fact from the clan?

Kitahara looked up at the nervous cub. He probably didn't know yet that the two fighting parties were his best friend and his father, right?

Suddenly, it didn't want the cub to go over…

"That's Susanoo! But… whose is it?"

Uchiha Itachi was smarter than Kitahara had imagined, or rather, as the eldest son of the clan head's family, he knew quite a lot. The Susanoo had never been lost to the Uchiha clan. At least Itachi had read the clan documents related to the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Because of Kitahara, he hadn't developed the Mangekyo's ocular jutsu much, only having a conceptual understanding of Susanoo.

"Kitahara, both of their ocular powers are astonishing…"

Bloody tears slowly trickled from Uchiha Itachi's eyes, dripping onto the crow's feathers, "I guess, one of them must be Shisui's. He's a genius who was bound to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan!"

Then what about the other Susanoo?
