"You are sounding more and more like a businessman. Are you planning on stopping being a ninja and starting to focus on business?" Fugaku asked with a smile.
"Not for now, Uncle," Shisui replied.
Then Shisui guided Fugaku to the bath that his and Kaida's clone had prepared. They had arranged the most luxurious pool in the bathhouse for Fugaku.
After showing him the location, Shisui ca out of the pool and took a seat at the hall in the bathhouse, placing a map on the table in front of him.
Fugaku had been working non-stop for 3 days. The fatigue from that hard work hit him like a train when he entered the pool, which contained a highly concentrated mixture of all herbs that would help in physical and ntal recovery.
'Hah! This is actually quite good. Maybe I should use this bathhouse occasionally when it officially opens,' Fugaku thought while all the muscles in his body, along with his brain, relaxed.
After taking a short nap in the bath, Fugaku ca out, only to find Shisui sitting at the table with a map opened in front of him.
"You want to discuss it here?" Fugaku easily understood that Shisui had sothing important to discuss.
"With five Uchiha Jonin guarding this bathhouse, and you and inside, do you think any spy had the guts to try and spy on this conversation?" Shisui said, raising his eyebrows a little.
"Fine, what do you want to discuss?" Fugaku said, sitting in front of Shisui.
"Just how amazing my brother is," Shisui said. Fugaku didn't say anything and waited for Shisui to continue.
"Do you rember Kakashi Hatake?"
"Of course. If not for those foolish elders, I would have loved to help that boy. He was considered a genius on par with you for a reason," Fugaku said.
"Well, he is older than , so I should be the one compared to him, not the other way around. But that's not important at the mont. The thing is, my brother was sohow able to rope him in on our side against Danzo, using the living condition of his sensei's son as a reason," Shisui explained.
"How was Kaida able to prove that it was Danzo's doing?" Fugaku asked.
"Nothing fancy. He just used the fact that Kakashi was a genius. He just gave him so clues about who could be behind it all, and Kakashi himself found out that Danzo was behind Naruto's miserable life. Since it was Kakashi who found out that information himself, there was nothing to prove," Shisui said. Fugaku nodded his head and waited for Shisui to continue.
"After roping him in, Kaida proposed a deal. We will sohow let Naruto have better living conditions from now on, and he will provide us the address of the Root bases where the experints may be happening."
Fugaku was visibly happy hearing that. It was a jackpot at the mont.
"But since Kakashi was never a true mber of Root, he was not allowed to know the deep secrets of Root, like the location of those bases. But being the genius he was, he was able to deduce the actual true location and two most likely locations where these experintal bases of Root may be in Konoha using his mories.
That's why Kaida wants to use the expertise of an Abura clan mber and spy on those three bases, and use them for..." Shisui then began to explain the plan Kaida and he had co up with to Fugaku.
"This is a good backup plan, though I would need to make so big preparations and arrange quite a few Jonin. I'm sure it will be worth it. But we would not use this unless the chance of removing Danzo from his position becos slim, as doing this will reduce the civilian trust in their own village shinobi," Fugaku said.
'Truly a peace-loving leader,' Shisui thought in his head, as from his experience, Fugaku had left many opportunities to seriously harm Root because it may lead to an all-out war against Danzo. He chose peace over resources many tis.
But now that Danzo had begun targeting the clan shinobi, the wicked eye Fugaku was going to take charge of things on his own hand, and the peaceful Fugaku was going to take a back seat for so ti.
...
While Shisui and Fugaku were discussing their backup plan against Danzo, the person the plan was against was not sitting idle at all.
"You're saying that all of the spies in the Uchiha clan are still giving the sa report, nothing unusual?" Danzo said after reading the report in front of him, which had been presented an hour ago by the spies.
One of the Root ninjas in front of him bowed and said, "Yes, Danzo-sama, but there is an unusual event. I tried to call a spy out to check if he was under so genjutsu, but when he was about to reach the eting destination, two Jonin suddenly attacked him for being a spy in the Uchiha compound and took him with them. They even tried to look for the Root ninja waiting at the eting location, but he was able to flee in ti."
"When did this happen? Why am I only knowing such important information now?" Danzo said, his face visibly a few shades darker.
"This incident happened just half an hour ago, Danzo-sama. I had tried to call one more spy out, but apparently, the Uchiha compound is locked until a search for all spies is completed."
"I knew it; those bastards from that cursed clan were up to sothing. There's no way they wouldn't do sothing after that f**king brat ca back crying about the attack," Danzo said while his brain went through various plans the Uchihas might have made against him.
"There was a report about many clan heads visiting the Uchiha clan, right?" Danzo said.
"Yes, sir, it was about a trade for genjutsu scrolls with elental jutsu scrolls," the Root ninja said, since these types of etings were quite common, it didn't ring any danger bell in that ninja's mind at that mont.
But Danzo was different. He knew this couldn't be a normal eting.
'Huh, so they're planning to rile up all of the clans against , quite a bold move for that peace-loving clan head. There will most likely be a council eting tomorrow, and I will most likely face so setbacks. Fine, if you want a war, we will have a war,' Danzo thought, easily getting most of Fugaku's plan with so little clue.
This was the reason many clan heads, including Fugaku, never actually went against Danzo. Aside from having the full support of the Hokage, he was also the best scher in Konoha or one could say in the Ninja world if you exclude two or three people from the list.
After 'understanding' the Uchiha plan, Danzo turned to the Root ninja and said, "This is an S-rank order. Send the ssage to all the Jonins under : target all Uchihas out of the village; none of them should return ho tomorrow." Danzo said.
Though it would be glaringly obvious that Danzo was behind this incident, no one would be able to put the bla on him, not even Hiruzen, and this would be a perfect ssage for those red rats and other clan heads not to ss with him again - or so Danzo was thinking.
...
Though it was true that Danzo was the best scher in Konoha and would co up with perfect sches and solutions for sches against him after processing all the variables in his hands, this ti he got it wrong.
It was true that he would make perfect solutions with all of the variables accounted for, but this ti he missed one of the most dangerous variables from his calculations - Shisui Uchiha.
There was a reason in the ani that Danzo killed Shisui as soon as he knew about his Kotoamatsukami. This was the variable that had the power to fuck all his sches in the most brutal way possible, which it had done now. He had taken Hiruzen's blind favor for him for granted in his sches, which is why he thought he wouldn't get any punishnt and would be able to do anything he wanted after the eting ended...
