Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Restoring the Glory of Uchiha

"You're awake."

Shisui felt pain all over his body.

At the same time, his head felt like it was about to explode, and his vision was extremely blurry, almost as if he were blind.

"Is the plan here successful?"

Shisui was silent for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

He asked in a hoarse voice.

"We've counted. Eighteen died: thirteen Police Force members and five clan members."

"A prayer ceremony was held yesterday."

Uchiha Tamahiko said with a somewhat downcast tone.

Although the casualties were fewer than expected, he still felt a sense of unwillingness.

The main reason was that Konoha was watching too closely; otherwise, they could have escaped with zero casualties.

"Cough, cough, it's already very good!"

Shisui coughed dryly, then forced a smile and said.

"Your injuries are severe. The clan doesn't have very skilled medical Ninjas, as Konoha has always restricted us, so we only know basic healing Jutsu."

"But thankfully, Danzo didn't use poison this time, so you survived. You just need to recuperate for a while."

"Oh, and your Mangekyo, it was already transplanted while you were unconscious."

Uchiha Tamahiko said to Shisui.

Three days had passed since the day they fled.

The Uchiha's morale was somewhat low, but because everyone had so much to do, such as building houses, hunting, and so on, they didn't have much time to dwell on these things.

"I was wrong!"

"If I had trusted the clan members from the beginning, the Uchiha might not have had to reach this point."

Shisui said earnestly to Uchiha Tamahiko.

Although he had agreed to the evacuation plan, he still harbored illusions about Konoha in his heart.

But now it seemed he had thought too highly of it.

Konoha was indeed as dark as Uchiha Tamahiko had said!

What had blinded him before?

"There's no time for you to wallow in self-pity. The Uchiha now needs help."

"Three days from now, I'm taking people out to sea. Relying solely on this island, the Uchiha can survive, but it's too primitive."

"I didn't bring everyone here for wilderness survival. I want to make the Uchiha stronger, and then, return to the Ninja World!"

Uchiha Tamahiko had no intention of comforting him.

Instead, he spoke very directly.

Ten days had already passed since the system gave the mission, which was three months long, leaving eighty days.

Within this time, he had to become a Shichibukai or a great pirate with a bounty of over five hundred million.

At the same time, the nearly thousand members of the Uchiha Clan couldn't live like savages here. They needed to interact with current society, engage in trade, and so on.

These were all things that needed to be done immediately.

"Understood. I will give my all to help the Uchiha Clan."

Shisui gritted his teeth and said directly.

"To restore the Uchiha's glory, it is our inescapable duty!"

Uchiha Tamahiko nodded, then looked at Shisui with a very earnest expression.

Shisui's face showed emotion, his lips trembled slightly, but he said nothing.

"The Uchiha are still easy to fool."

Uchiha Tamahiko was speechless.

However, he certainly didn't say that out loud.

"Oh, and Itachi also awakened his Mangekyo Sharingan."

"When I brought you back that day, you were knocked unconscious and covered in blood."

"Itachi was at the teleportation gate, responsible for receiving us. Seeing you in that state, I directly told him you had died, and then he awakened his Mangekyo, directly breaking through the seal."

Uchiha Tamahiko got up, originally intending to leave, but remembered something he forgot to say, so he finished speaking. Only then did he push open the wooden door of the house, which had only been built two days prior, and left. The wooden door slowly closed with a creaking sound.

Meanwhile, Shisui lay on the bedding, looking both amused and helpless.

Three days later.

In a training ground cleared on the isolated island.

Over a third of the Uchiha Clan members gathered there.

"Today, here, I pass on the position of Uchiha Clan Head to Uchiha Tamahiko. From now on, he will lead the Uchiha Clan towards glory!"

Right from the start, Uchiha Fugaku transferred the position of Clan Head.

After this incident, he realized he worried too much about things and was far less decisive than the younger generation.

Moreover, the charisma and strength Uchiha Tamahiko displayed were what the Uchiha Clan needed most right now.

"To restore the Uchiha's glory, it is my inescapable duty!"

Uchiha Tamahiko stood beside Fugaku, looking solemn, and solemnly promised the clan members standing in rows below.

Shisui, standing in the crowd, felt a subtle discomfort in his heart for some reason.

However, he was still the first to clap and offer congratulations.

A wave of applause quickly followed. On the night of their escape, they had witnessed the help their new Clan Head had brought them.

"Next, is the first step for the Uchiha to return to its peak."

"To officially integrate into this world, to communicate, to understand the specific intelligence of this world, and the current position of the Uchiha Clan, and so on."

Uchiha Tamahiko raised his hand, signaling for the applause to stop, then he began to speak.

At the same time, someone pushed over a blackboard, about three meters long and one and a half meters wide.

"The strongest power in this world is called the World Government, which governs over one hundred seventy allied nations."

Uchiha Tamahiko began to explain the situation to everyone.

Upon hearing that the World Government controlled one hundred seventy countries.

The people below gasped in astonishment, looking shocked.

Even Fugaku and Shisui were hearing this news for the first time.

"Of course, not all these countries can be as large as the Five Great Nations. Countries the size of the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain are the most common, but there are also countries comparable in size to the Five Great Nations."

"And under the World Government's power, there are four forces that they use as their foundation to govern these countries: the Marine, the Army, the Air Force, and intelligence organizations."

"Among these four forces, the strongest is the Marine. They possess five or more individuals with power comparable to the Hokage-level, three Admirals, one Fleet Admiral, and one Vice Admiral. They also have hundreds of thousands of troops, including over a hundred elite Jonin-level individuals, with the number of Jonin and Chunin-level individuals being uncountable."

When Uchiha Tamahiko explained the Marine's strength in detail.

The Uchiha, who had just been quite excited, suddenly fell silent.

After all, this force, in their eyes, was indeed too powerful.

This time, merely a weakened Konoha had forced them into such a situation. Could their Uchiha Clan truly regain glory under such a power?

And this was with Uchiha Tamahiko having deliberately downplayed the Marine's strength.

After all, the strength of the three Admirals could rival that of Ultra-Kage level individuals, meaning the living First Hokage and Uchiha Madara.

Individuals like Tsunade and Hiruzen Sarutobi simply couldn't contend with them.
