"Young Patriarch, we already have a clue."
After a period of investigation, the Uchiha clan ninjas finally set their sights on the Shimura clan.
"We can confirm that the original source of the rumors about Izuna-sama was the ninjas of the Shimura clan."
Uchiha Madara heard the information from the family ninja and couldn't help but sneer.
He thought it was some enemy who was slandering his brother.
Unexpectedly, it was the Shimura clan, which was not taken seriously by Uchiha Madara or the Uchiha clan at all.
Although the Shimura clan is not a small and rotten family.
But you guys shouldn't mess with us Uchiha, you shouldn't mess with my Uchiha Madara's brother.
"We need to let them know the consequences of hurting my brother, Uchiha Madara!"
The only remaining younger brother, Uchiha Izuna, is Madara's taboo.
When you spread rumors against my brother, you must have been prepared for it.
Soon, under the arrangement of Uchiha Madara, the intelligence ninjas of the Uchiha clan began to focus their work on the Shimura clan.
...
"Look, Sasuke, I have made Uchiha Izuna's reputation as a cunning and evil person spread throughout the Land of Fire."
The young patriarch of the Shimura clan proudly showed off his recent achievements to his good friend Sarutobi Sasuke.
"And it's been so long, how can the Uchiha clan find me among all the rumors that have been spread!"
Seeing his friend so confident, Sarutobi Sasuke couldn't persuade him any more.
"Anyway, you'd better be careful. The Uchiha aren't the kind of family that would do nothing if they suffered a loss."
The young patriarch of the Shimura clan, who didn't care, said goodbye to his friends and rushed back to his own family.
After leaving the Sarutobi clan for a while, the ninjas of the Shimura clan suddenly began to feel something was wrong.
"Be careful, Young Chieftain, someone is ambushing us."
A bad premonition arose in his heart.
Sarutobi Sasuke's warning, which he had just ignored, now kept ringing in his mind.
That's impossible. Could it be that someone from the Uchiha clan really came to our door?
His expression began to grow increasingly gloomy.
"Let's go back, back to the Sarutobi clan, that way we can still survive."
The other party is ambushing me, which means they must have known my intelligence.
Then it would be difficult to survive the opponent's attack by relying on your own strength alone.
The only way to survive is to return to the Sarutobi clan.
"Do you think you can leave now?"
However, the next moment, a figure appeared that made the young patriarch of the Shimura clan feel despair.
"Uchiha Madara!"
Why is it you?
He found it hard to believe that Uchiha Madara had actually found him and come out personally to kill him.
"You despicable fellow, just die here!"
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Uchiha Madara's Sharingan eyes. With a whoosh, he led the Uchiha ninjas and rushed towards the surrounded Shimura Clan.
"Retreat!"
The young chief of the Shimura clan, who was well aware of how terrifying this person was and who did not dare to engage in a head-on confrontation with him, let out a loud cry and began to retreat.
They fought and retreated, but the family ninjas who followed behind kept dying quickly at the hands of Uchiha Madara.
It even scared the young patriarch of the Shimura clan out of his wits.
This genius, who could easily kill adult ninjas from the hostile Senju and Hyūga clans, was truly terrifying.
The Shimura clan ninjas who escorted him were knocked down like melons and vegetables in front of Uchiha Madara.
He threw the kunai with exploding tags, which were attached to his body, behind him without looking back.
However, this action can only slightly delay the time it takes for the opponent to catch up.
Seeing that Uchiha Madara was getting closer and closer, there were fewer and fewer clansmen left around him.
The young patriarch of the Shimura clan felt panicked but did not regret his actions.
"Damn it, if I could have done it more secretly, he wouldn't have found out."
"Isn't it just a few bad words about your brother? This also indirectly spreads his reputation to the entire ninja world!
Are you really going to chase me down like this?"
"Damn, the Uchiha ninjas are so evil and scary."
"It seems that our Shimura clan will definitely face a huge threat from the Uchiha clan in the future."
If, if I could still survive.
I will definitely warn my clansmen to be extremely vigilant against the Uchiha clan.
If there is a chance to deal with the Uchiha or even to completely destroy them, we must seize this opportunity.
With a puff.
The last member of the Shimura clan who was protecting the young patriarch fell beside him.
Surrounded, he now had no way to escape.
I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!
I don't want to die!
Holding the kunai and exploding tags tightly in his hands, the young patriarch of the Shimura clan tried desperately to find a gap around him.
After being completely desperate, a hint of madness flashed in his eyes.
Uchiha Madara, even if I were to die, I would not let you have an easy life!
"You have nowhere to run, you bastard!
At least in the end, I died like a ninja."
Uchiha Madara saw that his face was full of tension, but there was still a trace of ninja in him.
He hoped that the other party would not disappoint him too much in the end. He was just a person who was good at playing these despicable tricks and did not dare to fight him to the death at the last moment.
"You are actually looking down on me, Uchiha Madara!"
The angry young chief of the Shimura clan threw the shuriken at Uchiha Madara and then rushed towards him decisively.
Ding, ding, ding!
The kunai in his hand and Uchiha Madara's ninja tools kept colliding.
Although he was determined to die, the speed and strength still disappointed Uchiha Madara.
"Is this the extent of risking your life?
It is indeed very difficult to find an opponent like Hashirama again."
Uchiha Madara was disappointed. He knocked the kunai out of the young Shimura clan leader's hand in a few moves, kicked him in the abdomen, and kicked his body into the air.
Then, he tilted his head with ease and dodged the Fūton [Wind Release] technique that he had just blown out with a hand seal.
Finally, he aimed the kunai in his hand precisely at the opponent's head and mouth and threw it out fiercely.
"Remember not to talk nonsense like this in your next life."
Uchiha Madara turned around and left in style.
Without any surprise, Uchiha Madara's kunai accurately pierced the mouth of the man who claimed to be the young clan leader and then penetrated his head.
A blood-stained kunai popped out from behind his head.
Uchiha Madara had no intention of cleaning up the battlefield, nor did he intend to search for any information from him.
He wanted to use this bloody display to inform the ninja world that there would be consequences for casually slandering and fabricating lies about his younger brother, Uchiha Izuna.
