Rushing out of the house fuming with a cold, dark expression, Shisui flickered away in search for a certain silver haired ANBU captain.

While repeatedly channeling a bit of his chakra in a small seal placed on the back of his left ear, that acts in a somewhat similar way with the telepathy seal but with few differences, such as how one can only reach one mind and cannot establish a mind space, like how Naruto has developed their own connection amongst the three of them all together.

For they had been extensively exposed to the lethal chakra of the Kyuubi which helped reinforced their minds to handle the strain the connection the seal has caused. Including with how their experience from its long usage back in the war has been carried over.

Upon landing on the cliff or the Hokage mountain overlooking the village, he found Kakashi waiting for him.

"Shisui." The silver-haired masked man titled his head in a greeting.

"Taicho, I want in." Shisui firmly stated in a chilling tone with his eyes going dead serious causing the man opposite him to slightly stiffen.

"Doesn't matter what I have to do. I want it done." He strongly emphasised with a deeply heated anger radiating off of him, letting his Sharingan spin wildly.

Turning around in response, Kakashi simply led him away.

It was another night when the atmosphere of the dinner table inside the main Uchiha household had gone tense and silent.

With the events accumulated over the week, it was understandably suffocating and depressing.

Itachi never did tell anyone the truth about the death of their Elder nor about Sasuke's involvement, aside from Shisui who witnessed the unexpected confrontation. Intending to continue shielding his younger brother for it would cause undesirable consequences if any of their clansmen were to know. Willing to carry the burden and help find alternative ways to solve the situation instead.

He even made their father consider the possibility of Danzo's involvement and effortlessly, terrifyingly convinced, no matter how forceful the tactics, the other Elders to cooperate and monitor the members of their clan not to act recklessly nor think of doing anything against the other villagers of Konoha for whatever reasons of misplacing their feelings of blame, indignation, anguish and anger.

For they did not want to further incite a reason for a civil war to really occur, which was counterproductive to what they were currently aiming for, and would definitely destroy every effort they've done in the last few weeks.

"You've done well, Sasuke."

Inside the same somber, dimly lit room stood a man in bandages holding a cane with a dark haired child silently kneeling before him with his head down.

"The death of Setsuga Uchiha should further stimulate their anger and hatred towards the village. With the academy blown aflame, the villagers should also be looking at the clan with heated contempt. Soon there WILL be war!" Danzo sneered, feeling delightedly anxious gripping his cane with strength and made a forceful thud on the ground.

While the boy on the ground, upon hearing the hateful man's words, felt absolute indignation boiling within him triggering the curse seal to cause him internal pain, trembling as he breathed heavily with a bloody nose, liquid dropping on the ground.
