The sudden action of Suijin caught Fugaku off-guard and even his stern face was a bit flabbergasted, couldn't hide the surprise.
If it said that Homusubi was able to break free of the Taikyokuzu, it is still within an acceptable range of Fugaku as the other party has the Mangekyou Sharingan with much higher ocular power than his, but the fact that Suijin who doesn't have the Mangekyou Sharingan was also able to break free of the Taikyokuzu without any help, greatly surprised him, it was beyond his expectations.
'Moreover, that Purple creature is also something incomprehensible… what exactly was that?' – thought Fugaku with a frown.
Seeing that two members of Amatsukami ran away, the members of the Konoha Military Police Force wanted to stop them.
But Fugaku stretched out his hand to stop them and said seriously, "Let them go!"
"Patriarch, why not chase? They humiliated the Uchiha Clan!"
"Do you just want to let the two of them escape, they are trying to step over the Uchiha Clan and the Village!"
The members of the Konoha Military Police Force were puzzled and looked towards the Patriarch with confusion.
Fugaku just shook his head and said with a gloomy tone, "That Homusubi is an Uchiha, and he has a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan!"
Hearing Fugaku's words, everyone was startled, one of Uchiha couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch, is he Shinichi?"
As far as the Uchiha are aware, only Shinichi and Shisui have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, so that person has to be Shinichi.
Everyone knows of Shisui's straight and honest personality, so they excluded him to be Homusubi.
And since there isn't anyone else with the Mangekyou Sharingan, then it can only be Shinichi, who defected from Konoha and joined some bounty organization if the rumors are correct.
However, they were all wrong as Fugaku shook his head and said with a frown, "He is not Shinichi, nor is he Shisui, if anything, the most likely possibility is that he is the one responsible for controlling the Kyuubi and destroying the village and for the death of Yondaime Hokage, it is him who is responsible for the problems that the Clan is facing!"
"What!?" – exclaimed someone in shock.
Another one added in anger, "So it was this bastard!"
"Then we can't let him escape, he has to pay for what he did, he has to die!"
All the Uchiha were more and more furious.
Fugaku sighed lightly and shook his head, "We can't rush headfirst here, the opponent has Mangekyou Sharingan, even if we kill, we will have to pay a considerable prize, besides, if I didn't guess it wrong, even that Suijin has something up his sleeve that makes his strength no inferior to that of Homusubi, we have to plan out carefully from here on out!"
In Fugaku's cognition, the threat that Suijin posed has increased a lot, if it was only Ice Release Kekkei Genkai, Fugaku wouldn't have worried much, because he truly believes that the power of the Sharingan is superior to all other Kekkei Genkai, even better than Byakugan, but Suijin was able to break free of Taikyokuzu, this feat alone is no joke, not to mention that purple blob of highly condensed Chakra that reminded Fugaku of a tailed beast, therefore, he has to be cautious in dealing with the enemy.
The other Uchiha also understood the seriousness of the matter and asked, "Then Patriarch, what should we do?"
After thinking a little, he said, "Let's first meet up with Sandaime, and see how the situation turns out."
…
While running, Suijin and Homusubi glanced back occasionally to see if they were being chased by the Konoha Military Police Force, after confirming that they weren't being followed, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Homusubi spoke, "it seems that Patriarch isn't following us!"
Suijin nodded after a bit of thinking, "It seems us breaking free of his Mangekyou Sharingan Dojutsu startled him a little, making him consider us a real threat, therefore we were able to bluff our way out!"
Fugaku's Dojutsu affected both Suijin and Homusubi, and the technique was obviously Mangekyou specific, Suijin was able to break free and not much affected because his spiritual power is that of Tenseigan, which is why his soul wasn't much affected by whatever that was, and thanks to Ryuumyaku acting as a guide, he was able to successfully break free, which obviously surprised Fugaku, making him more cautious.
Even Suijin would be the same if he was in Fugaku's place if someone easily broke free of an ability he had absolute confidence in.
It's just that Fugaku doesn't know that the current situation of the two is not much better.
After all, first Suijin fought against Sandaime for such a long time, even if he has an artificial Biju at his side to provide him with Chakra, the refining does tire him out, so firstly fighting with Sandaime then so many Uchiha at the same time, and finally dealing with Fugaku, Suijin is quite tired.
Although Homusubi's situation is better, Homusubi still can't openly use techniques like Susanoo and Body Flicker that are his main strength as that would easily expose his true identity. So, his actions are also a bit limited.
Moreover, Homusubi also got some injuries due to hesitation to deal with the Uchiha Clan.
Therefore, if Fugaku really chased them, the direction of the outcome of the battle would be a bit uncertain and in fact, the balance would be a bit tilted towards Fugaku, meaning that the two members of Amatsukami would be at a disadvantage.
At this time Homusubi said with a bitter smile, "It was as you said, Patriarch really has the Mangekyou Sharingan."
Fugaku deliberately concealed his Mangekyou Sharingan, this shows that even he didn't have much trust in the Hokage faction, but he isn't wrong to do so, after all, the impact that Uchiha Madara caused with his Mangekyou Sharingan was too much for the senior to forget, therefore, it is unknown what actions they might have taken.
Besides, Shisui really doesn't have much say in it, after all, when he revealed his Mangekyou Sharingan, he also caused too much trouble for the Uchiha Clan, so the patriarch's actions are understandable.
Sighing lightly, Homusubi asked, "So what should we do next?"
Suijin smiled, "..." and he was about to say something, but suddenly, the presence of two strong chakra signs appeared in his field of vision of his Byakugan.
Suijin instantly warned, "Stop here, we have company!"
Homusubi asked, "Who is it?"
Suijin didn't reply immediately but there was a light chuckle.
Homusubi was confused, if it is the enemy, then why would Suijin chuckle? So, asked again, "Suijin, who did you see?"
Suijin just replied casually, "Don't worry too much, it's the two guys from the Akatsuki Organization, let's go greet them!"
Homusubi nodded and the two walked in that direction, and after a while, the two sides met.
Looking at the figure of Sasori and Kakuzu on the opposite side, Suijin couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
Both Kakuzu and Sasori's appearance is really laughable.
The traditional Akatsuki Cloak Kakuzu was wearing has been mostly torn apart, leaving only a part attached to the collar, and half sleeve, giving the both of them a miserable look.
Compared to Kakuzu, Sasori's condition is worse, his entire left arm was missing along with several other injuries.
While Suijin and Homusubi were observing Sasori and Kakuzu, the other two were also observing the opponent.
The Suijin-specific Black Cloak he was wearing had several cuts over it along with several wounds left by the Uchiha Elites, which were quite conspicuous.
Homusubi on the side was much better, with just a bit of ragged breathing and some light injuries, along with light Chakra exhaustion…
