"The truth?"
Shisui’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Uchiha Obito.
Right now, he was certain—this guy’s real body wasn’t even here.
Haruta had detailed Obito’s combat abilities in his reports.
He knew that Obito specialized in hiding within his pocket dimension, only becoming vulnerable when he attacked.
But there was one thing Shisui wasn’t sure about—could Obito still be affected by genjutsu while inside Kamui's dimension?
That uncertainty was why he didn’t act immediately.
Instead, he decided to stall for time and see how things developed.
"Yes—the truth."
Obito nodded calmly, his voice deep and composed.
"I wonder… what do you really know about your teammate, Shigaru Haruta?"
"Haruta…?"
Shisui’s brows furrowed slightly.
Of course, he knew about Haruta.
Haruta had never hidden his connection to Danzo.
From the very beginning, he had made it clear that he came from a deeper training division within ANBU.
Shisui didn’t know much about that specific unit, but he did know one thing—it was under Danzo’s direct control.
"Shigaru Haruta belongs to Danzo."
"And Danzo… is none other than the infamous ‘Darkness of the Shinobi World’."
Obito let out a calm chuckle.
He had received plenty of intel from White Zetsu.
"As the student of the Second Hokage, Danzo inherited his teacher’s hatred toward the Uchiha.
And as the classmate of the Third Hokage, he gained unquestionable protection.
Tell me, Shisui—have you ever heard of the man known as ‘Konoha’s White Fang’—Sakumo Hatake?"
Shisui remained silent.
But of course, he had heard of it.
That incident had been a huge scandal, and among his ANBU colleagues, Kakashi was proof of its consequences.
However… what did that have to do with Danzo?
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
After a long pause, Shisui finally spoke, his tone laced with disdain.
"You just said he committed suicide—are you suggesting he was actually murdered?"
"Not exactly."
Obito smirked.
"But he was driven to his death—by none other than Konoha itself!"
Obito didn’t have all the details.
Some events weren’t officially recorded, and some truths were lost over time.
But that didn’t matter.
For this conversation, he could twist just enough truth with lies to create the perfect narrative.
Danzo had committed far too many crimes—even Shisui had experienced it firsthand.
And with Haruta being tied to Danzo?
Even if Shisui didn’t break down completely, it would still plant the seed of doubt.
That’s all Obito needed.

"Konoha was struggling in the war. Every mission was critical.
But Konoha’s White Fang—Sakumo Hatake—chose to save a comrade instead of completing his mission.
This decision resulted in a huge loss for Konoha.
And at the time, Konoha could not allow such defiance to go unpunished.
Sakumo’s reputation was too great—if he continued to gain support, he might have even had a chance at becoming the Fourth Hokage.
And yet, someone else desperately wanted that position—Danzo Shimura!"
---
After years of learning the ways of deception in Kirigakure…
After controlling the Mizukage behind the scenes for so long…
Obito had mastered the art of manipulation.
Could he execute complex political schemes himself? Probably not.
But could he bullshit his way into convincing someone? Absolutely.
---
"So, what did Danzo do?"
"He manipulated public opinion.
The entire village turned against Sakumo, their former hero.
The White Fang was a man of honor—he couldn’t bear the shame.
And so, he took his own life."
Obito’s voice was calm but piercing.
"Did Danzo intend for him to die? Maybe not.
But once it happened, Konoha saw an opportunity.
His death became a lesson—a warning to all shinobi.
And Danzo? He was never held accountable.
This was just one of many atrocities he committed.
Now, tell me, Shisui—does this situation sound familiar?"
Shisui clenched his fists tightly.
Because yes—he could see the parallels between that incident and the Uchiha Clan’s current predicament.
---
"Do you know who was responsible for forcing your clan to relocate the second time?"
Obito’s voice deepened.
"It was Danzo.
Just as the Second Hokage forced your clan to move once before, Danzo forced you to move again.
Do you really think that’s the end of it?
No.
They will never trust the Uchiha.
Your clan tried to integrate into ANBU, hoping to build a bridge between Uchiha and Konoha.
But look at your teammate—Shigaru Haruta.
He is Danzo’s agent.
And do you honestly believe the Third Hokage doesn’t know about him?"
Obito paused, letting his words sink in.
Then, with a slow, deliberate voice, he delivered the final blow—
---
"Wake up, Shisui.
You are nothing.
Everything you’ve done—it’s all meaningless.
Danzo will never spare your clan.
Konoha will never accept you.
This is the truth of the Uchiha Clan’s fate!"
---
Shisui fell into complete silence.
His logic told him that this man was an enemy—that his words should not be trusted.
That he was simply manipulating and deceiving him.
But his heart told him something else.
Because no matter how he looked at it—the relationship between Konoha and the Uchiha was indeed falling apart.
---
"And what about you?"
After a long silence, Shisui finally spoke, his voice cold.
"You framed Haruta.
What does that make you?"
Obito shook his head slightly.
"I’ll admit, I wanted to provoke Shigaru Haruta into reacting.
But I never intended for Itachi Uchiha to die.
That night, I could feel it—he had murderous intent toward me.
If I hadn’t appeared…
He would have killed someone, disposed of the body, and buried the evidence—all just to clear his own name.
As a Root agent, killing in cold blood means nothing to him.
He would have done it without hesitation."
---
"Then what about the Nine-Tails Attack?"
Suddenly, a new voice interrupted.
Footsteps echoed across the quiet path leading toward the Uchiha District.
Both Obito and Shisui turned in shock—
To see a familiar figure approaching.
---
"Haruta…?"
"Shigaru Haruta."
---
Shisui couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
Obito’s expression darkened beneath his mask.
Neither of them had any idea how Haruta had suddenly appeared here.
Especially Obito—
He had been completely hidden within Kamui’s dimension.
So how the hell did Haruta still find his way here?!
...
