Sasuke saw Fugaku fall into deep thought and didn't interrupt. He just waited quietly at the side, waiting for Fugaku's final answer.
After a long while, Fugaku finally raised his head and said, "Sasuke, in that world, no matter what you do, I will support you."
"But in this world, what I care about is only the fate of the Uchiha clan. Judging from the current situation, our clan and Konoha haven't yet reached the point of no return."
"So, I still plan to talk to the Obito of this world before making a final decision."
Sasuke was stunned, then asked in confusion, "Didn't you already see what Obito and I came here to do through those images I showed you earlier?"
"Even so, you still want to talk to little Obito?"
"You want to protect little Obito, and try to stop big Obito's plan here?"
Fugaku shook his head, a confident look in his eyes, "I don't need to do anything. The so-called big Obito will ultimately be defeated."
Sasuke was even more confused, "You trust little Obito that much? Even if he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at a young age, the gap in experience is not easy to make up for. Big Obito wouldn't do anything he's not confident in. He's so certain. I believe, if there's no outside interference, little Obito is definitely not a match for big Obito."
Fugaku revealed a meaningful smile, "Sasuke, you haven't seen this world's Obito. You don't know how terrifying he really is. Maybe in your eyes, big Obito is already very scary, but how could he possibly compare to little Obito?"
"If you want to see a good show, you can follow big Obito and see how he suffers a crushing defeat."
Sasuke didn't expect his father to trust this world's little Obito so much. Is it because they're fellow clansmen, with close ties, that he's so confident?
He knew his father somewhat. If a clansman who awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at a young age appeared in front of him, his father might indeed be impressed.
So, he didn't completely believe his father's words.
But from his father's words, he clearly heard that his father had no intention of interfering in this matter, which made him feel relieved.
In this way, no matter what the final outcome is, it wouldn't affect his father or the other Uchiha clansmen.
However, there was one thing Sasuke couldn't let go of. Since his father already knew what would happen in the future, and had also awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Sasuke felt that if he joined in, there might be a chance of success.
So, he said, "Father, you can discuss other matters with this world's Obito, but there's one person I really want to kill in this world. Leaving this person alive is the greatest harm to the Uchiha clan."
"You probably want to kill him too. Even though I've already killed him once, I still feel once isn't enough."
A flash of madness and hatred appeared in Sasuke's eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "I want to kill Danzo again!"
Seeing the terrifying killing intent radiating from Sasuke's whole body, Fugaku couldn't help but shake his head.
"If it's about killing Danzo, Sasuke, you're already too late. Danzo is already dead."
Sasuke froze, eyes wide with disbelief, "What? Danzo is dead? Who did it?"
Fugaku showed a trace of pride and said, "Strictly speaking, it was a plan by our Uchiha clan. I also participated. I watched with my own eyes as Danzo bled out in front of me, his eyes wide open in death."
After pausing, Fugaku smiled and added, "Oh right, the first stab was personally made by Itachi. In a way, Itachi also got his revenge."
At this point, Fugaku suddenly froze.
He suddenly remembered that day when they killed Danzo, and the many seemingly inexplicable things Obito did.
Including insisting that Itachi deliver the first stab, insisting that Shisui dig out Danzo's eyes. Those mysterious ritualistic actions, now that he thought about Sasuke's experience, weren't they just about letting the victim avenge themselves?
So, at that time, everyone Obito brought was someone who had a grudge against Danzo, including those three apprentices of Jiraiya from the Akatsuki organization.
Which meant that Obito knew everything and that knowledge was just a little too precise. It didn't seem like it came from Minato's prophetic ability showing fragments of the future.
Therefore, this world's Obito might very well have had a similar experience to Sasuke, he also came from the future.
Thinking through all this, Fugaku suddenly understood a lot of things.
At this moment, Sasuke was completely dumbfounded.
His father in this world actually planned Danzo's death, and even let Itachi stab Danzo.
Itachi's still just a tiny kid right now, like two or three years old, right? Isn't this kind of experience a little too early for him?
But he had to admit, that stab was satisfying.
Itachi stabbing Danzo once was even more exciting to Sasuke than stabbing Danzo ten times himself.
Danzo really died a deserving death.
Sasuke couldn't help but sigh, "Father, you really are incredible."
Fugaku couldn't help but reveal a proud expression. To be honest, seeing Sasuke acting all smug, and remembering how badly he was beaten in genjutsu earlier and how he lost all his fatherly dignity, he was trying to find a way to save face.
At this moment, there was no way he'd tell Sasuke that in the whole process of killing Danzo, he was actually the one who contributed the least.
Instead, he said calmly, "Naturally. That's why, with the factor most detrimental to our Uchiha clan, Danzo, already dead, I think our relationship with Konoha can be eased. That's why I want to take a long-term view."
"After all, with a stable living environment, it's better than living a wandering life, right?"
Sasuke couldn't help but nod.
Seeing that he had understood enough, Fugaku said, "Sasuke, I'll release the genjutsu now. I acknowledge your situation. You've indeed become a ninja who can handle things on his own, and in terms of strength, you've definitely surpassed me."
After all, thinking back on it, Fugaku realized he could never be as bold as Sasuke, who had just awakened his Mangekyō and already dared to storm the Five Kage Summit and fight with the Kage from other villages.
From this perspective, sometimes both the radicals and conservatives were right. The current Uchiha really were too weak. If everyone were like Sasuke, there would be no need for any coup. Konoha wouldn't dare mess with them.
Face, ultimately still had to be earned by oneself.
Sasuke nodded, but still felt a bit uneasy, "Father, the things I told you about the future…"
Fugaku understood Sasuke's concerns. Honestly, he had the same concerns himself.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. After we get out, we'll just say we fought, and then I acknowledged you."
"These future things, the fewer people who know, the better. Besides, the future has already changed…"
