Naruto: Dual-Pupil Uchiha

Chapter 174: Chapter 174 : Genya's Preparations!!



Konoha 

It was a bright and sunny day.

A gentle breeze swept through, bringing a sense of peace. But—

The atmosphere around the Uchiha clan was growing more and more ominous. 

As soon as Genya stepped outside, he noticed several ninja wandering around the Uchiha compound. Most of them were at least Chūnin level.

And there were more of them.

Constantly watching the Uchiha clan's every move.

"Is it about to begin?" Genya frowned as he observed these ninjas. His expression grew more serious.

These ninjas had surrounded the Uchiha compound, clearly intending to block off any escape routes. 

How ridiculous. 

From the very start, they had no intention of letting the Uchiha clan survive.

If not for the Senju clan being scattered among the common people, even they might not have escaped Hiruzen Sarutobi's schemes.

Genya's gaze turned cold and sharp.

It would be within the next day or two. He started thinking—was there anything he hadn't prepared yet?

At the Police Force Headquarters 

"Genya, you were looking for me?" Uchiha Shin asked as he hurried into the room. He had just arrived at the headquarters when he heard Genya was asking for him.

Genya rarely called for him so urgently. Could something serious have happened this time?

"Uncle Shin, haven't you noticed? Outside our Uchiha compound, there are already more than a hundred ninjas stationed, watching us!" Genya said, his tone steady but heavy.

"Huh? That many?" Uchiha Shin froze for a moment. Earlier today, he had noticed a few suspicious ninjas lurking around but hadn't realized there were so many.

Over a hundred?

If there were that many ninjas outside the compound, there was only one explanation—Konoha was preparing to act against the Uchiha clan.

He turned to Genya. "Genya, are you saying Konoha is planning to make a move against us?"

As he spoke, Uchiha Shin's eyes grew cold.

"Konoha will probably make a move in the next few days. Tell the men to stay alert, especially at night!" Genya looked at Uchiha Shin and reminded him seriously.

This time, there can't be any mistakes!

One wrong step could lead to heavy losses for the clan!

"Don't worry, I've already given the order. If they dare to come, they won't leave alive!" Uchiha Shin also showed his cold side. 

Although he usually appeared friendly, he would show no mercy to anyone who dared to harm the Uchiha clan.

No one would be spared!

"Good!" Genya nodded and looked at Uchiha Shin. "Let's go check on my mother."

With that, Genya nodded and prepared to head to the hospital.

Yesterday, he had already sent his mother to the Uchiha hospital, saying it was for her health.

Uchiha Shin's wife and a few other clan members' families were also sent there.

The reason was for safety—he believed Konoha would hesitate to attack a hospital with civilians inside.

At the hospital, he checked on his mother and then instructed Hikari by her side: "If any trouble comes, take them to my office!"

Hikari wasn't sure what was going on, but when she saw Genya's serious expression, she nodded seriously as well.

No matter what, she would make sure Aunt Yumi was safe.

After giving the instructions, Genya went straight to the basement.

He needed to contact Shisui.

"You've come?" As soon as Genya entered the basement, he saw a young man with his eyes closed waiting for him at the bottom of the stairs, a smile on his lips. "It's been a while, hasn't it?"

Even without eyes, Shisui could still move freely, even more efficiently than when he had sight.

Shisui's training in sensory perception allowed him to sense in all directions, and if he ever gained the Mangekyō Sharingan, his strength would increase even more.

"Today, I need to ask you for a favor!" Genya looked at Uchiha Shisui, his expression turning serious.

"What is it?" Uchiha Shisui frowned. He had known Genya for a long time, and usually, Genya was relaxed, never this serious. The last time he spoke like this was the first day Shisui was saved.

Today, something was definitely up.

"I've left some people at the hospital. I hope you can protect them. I'll also leave a clone behind," Genya said, staring at Uchiha Shisui, speaking each word carefully.

Huh? Protect people? Let me? Genya is leaving a clone too?

Shisui had personally felt the strength of Genya's clone before. Without using his Mangekyo, it was nearly impossible to defeat Genya's clone.

What happened to make Genya so cautious?

Suddenly, a bad feeling rose in Shisui's heart.

His face showed shock.

After a few breaths of silence, Uchiha Shisui cautiously asked, "Could it be... that Konoha is planning to move against the Uchiha clan? Or is Clan Leader Fugaku planning a coup?"

"Fugaku isn't there yet, but Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo in Konoha can't wait anymore. They've already deployed high-ranking ninjas around the Uchiha clan," Genya explained.

He didn't mention that Itachi might also be involved in the clan's massacre. Knowing Shisui's personality, if he knew about Itachi's plan, he would likely rush out to confront him. 

But Shisui was still too naive. Without eyes, he wouldn't fear Itachi's Tsukuyomi, but... he was too innocent, and Itachi could strike when he least expected it.

Itachi had already made up his mind. It was very likely that he would even kill Shisui to protect his brother, the last survivor.

Uchiha Shisui was Genya's trump card, and Genya didn't want him taken out so easily.

"Is that so? Are they targeting the faction of the clan leader who is planning a coup? Or...?" Uchiha Shisui asked again.

"They want to destroy the Uchiha clan!" Genya said firmly.

Uchiha Shisui fell silent. He had already guessed this, and even Danzo had made his intentions clear. He even understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts.

"Then you must be careful!" After a long pause, he finally said. "I hope you can keep the Uchiha flame alive. Don't worry, if the hospital is attacked, I will eliminate all those involved."

"Be careful yourself. You are the future of the Uchiha clan. If things go badly, take the clan and escape."

He understood the situation in Konoha. If the entire village mobilized, the Uchiha clan would be defeated.

"Don't worry, this time it's a plot by Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo. Only Root will take action," Genya said, looking at Uchiha Shisui. 

"Right now, Fugaku hasn't staged a coup. If Sarutobi Hiruzen openly tries to exterminate the Uchiha clan, it could make the other ninja clans uneasy. The fall of one clan could lead to the fall of others."

If Sarutobi Hiruzen dares to wipe out the Uchiha clan, eliminating other clans afterward would be easy.

Other major clans would also be wary of this.

But Itachi, Uchiha Itachi, should understand this as well, yet... he still chose to stand with Konoha!

His heart had already shifted.

After talking with Uchiha Shisui, Genya left a shadow clone in the basement.

In the afternoon,

He went to the ninja academy.
