Chapter 276 Reminder
In a blink of an eye, it was two days later.

The three-day holiday officially ended, and Qingming finally received new orders.

Just as the elder Uchiha said, he was indeed assigned to the team that would support the Kirigakure battlefield.

Not only him, Uchiha Shisui also received this task.

Looking at the mission certificate in his hand, Qing Ming snorted coldly and walked straight to the mission gathering place.

······
base camp.

South.

In a dense forest.

Dozens of Konoha ninjas were sitting or standing together.

Suddenly, a figure appeared silently on the scene.

Everyone was startled and perked up, but only after seeing the person's face clearly did they relax again.

Then, some people started talking in low voices.

"This is Uchiha Qingming, right? He looks so young!"

"Young? They are the twin stars of Konoha. I heard that they are even stronger than the average jonin!"

"Who doesn't know about the Ghost Sword Qingming?"

"."

That’s right, the person who came was none other than Qing Ming.

Ignoring the discussions, Qingming walked straight to an empty corner, then formed seals with his hands, performed the "Palm Immortal Technique", and began to strengthen his body.

Time is precious and he doesn't want to waste a single minute of it.

Seeing his expression of "no strangers allowed", no one was foolish enough to disturb him.

As time passed slowly, more and more people came here.

At a certain moment, another figure appeared, attracting everyone's attention.

Qingming's ears moved slightly and he heard Uchiha Shisui's name.

Then he opened his eyes and looked over there, and sure enough, he saw a figure who was a head shorter than him appearing on the field.

If it’s not Uchiha Shisui, who else could it be?

Just as Qingming looked over, the other party also discovered him, so after saying hello to a few familiar ninjas, he came to Qingming.

Qing Ming looked at the other person, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ah."

Uchiha Shisui nodded seriously, then pointed to the dense forest not far away and said, "Talk this way."

Qing Ming heard this, thought about it, did not refuse, nodded and responded, then walked straight into the depths of the dense forest, followed closely by Uchiha Shisui.

Soon, the two disappeared from everyone's sight.

Several jonin leaders in the crowd saw this but didn't say much.

Anyway, the departure time has not yet arrived. The two people are of the same tribe and want to discuss some things. Can they stop them?

What's more, the strength of these two people may have surpassed them.

In this way, they would be even less willing to meddle in other people's affairs.

After walking out of everyone's sight, Qing Ming stopped, turned around to look at Uchiha Shisui, and said calmly: "What's the matter, tell me?"

In fact, he already had some guesses in his mind about what the other party was going to say, which was nothing more than the strangeness of this mission.

Since the Uchiha elder could tell him some things, there was no reason why he would not inform Uchiha Shisui.

Sure enough, as soon as Uchiha Shisui opened his mouth, he talked about this matter.

Then he said, "Qingming, Elder Huoxuan said that we were suddenly transferred to the Kirigakure battlefield this time because Konoha wanted to suppress our Uchiha clan. Do you believe this?"

Huo Xuan is the elder Uchiha who had talked with Qing Ming before, his name is Uchiha Huo Xuan.

Hearing Uchiha Shisui's question, Qingming raised his eyebrows slightly, and instead of answering directly, he asked back: "Do you believe it?"

"I believe!"

Uchiha Shisui replied seriously. Hearing this, Qingming was slightly stunned.

He originally thought that Uchiha Shisui was a member of the Uchiha clan who had been brainwashed by the "Will of Fire", that is, a person who had broken free from the shackles of his own clan.

Now it seems that the other party is not a brainless person, on the contrary, he has his own opinions.

Yes, thinking about what the other party did later, even at the most critical moment of the situation, he wanted to use "Kotoamatsukami" to control Uchiha Fugaku first, let him stop the rebellion within the clan, and then slowly resolve the conflict between the two sides.

Obviously, he found a balance between the village and the family.

This is not a sign of being brainwashed by the "Will of Fire".

On the contrary, Uchiha Itachi directly massacred his own clan in order to save the so-called village from war. This is a typical example of a person with a mental problem.

If a civil war breaks out in the village, many people will die. Does that mean the Uchiha people he slaughtered are no longer human?
As the saying goes, the butt determines the head.

You are an Uchiha first, and a Konoha ninja second.

Even if you break free from the shackles of ethnocentrism, you can learn from Uchiha Shisui and try to solve the problem instead of killing it.

What is a kaleidoscope used for?
You have the ability to wipe out half of the family, so can't you control them with absolute strength?

If that doesn't work, you can also kill the ringleaders, which is also a way to temporarily ease the conflict.

What about you?

Just choose massacre.

Even if there are various reasons, this is a decision that cannot be more outrageous.

Just when Qingming was daydreaming, Uchiha Shisui's voice came again: "It is undeniable that Konoha is indeed targeting our Uchiha clan now, but this may be the result of deliberate guidance by some high-level officials."

"Well, did you find anything?"

Qing Ming asked with interest.

"Ah."

Uchiha Shisui nodded and said, "I secretly investigated the 'Root' and Elder Danzo you mentioned last time and found that they do have problems, especially when it comes to targeting our Uchiha clan. Their attitude is very obvious."

'Last time?'

Qing Ming was stunned at first, then he remembered that after the Chunin Exam, they were attacked by Root ninjas on their way back to the battlefield.

In order to annoy the Konoha high-level officials and to make Uchiha Shisui more cautious, he did mention the existence of "Root" and Danzo afterwards.

Now it seems that there is some effect.

Uchiha Shisui didn't know what Qingming was thinking, he continued: "I suspect that this matter was arranged by Elder Danzo. If my guess is true, then we may be in trouble next."

"trouble?"

"Hehehe~"

Hearing Uchiha Shisui's reminder, Qing Ming sneered, and then said lightly: "Are you afraid of trouble? Then kill them all."

Although Qingming's voice was plain, it was so chilling to Uchiha Shisui's ears that it made his scalp tingle.

Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but be a little dazed, and when he came to his senses again, Qingming had already turned around and was ready to leave.

Seeing this, Uchiha Shisui quickly called Qingming and said, "Qingming, what do you think about the conflict between the village and the family?"

Hearing this, Qing Ming paused for a moment, then said without even turning his head, "It's just a fight for power and profit, what's there to see?"

Having said that, he left.

Watching his leaving back, Uchiha Shisui murmured: "Struggle for power and profit?"

Qingming's words were not meant to fool Uchiha Shisui, these were his true thoughts.

The so-called conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village is ultimately caused by the unfair division of power.

As one of the two major families that jointly founded Konoha, the Uchiha clan has too little say in Konoha, and the Uchiha clan is a proud family, so they naturally cannot accept this.

Then the contradictions gradually accumulated and finally turned into a tit-for-tat confrontation.

As for other things such as Uchiha Madara's defection, the Uchiha clan having mental problems after opening the Sharingan, etc., these are just excuses.

Anyway, among the Uchiha people that Qingming has come into contact with in the past two years, he hasn't met any who are completely insane.

All I can say is that the taste of power is too tempting and people are unwilling to give it up.
