"But did you have to be so extreme? I nearly went mad after seeing that genjutsu," Kaida said in a frustrated voice.
"You already have very strong resistance to genjutsu. I had to use my full power to put you under a genjutsu, even had to use the mangekyo for that, so that it would appear real. Otherwise, you wouldn't have fallen for that genjutsu.
Due to that, I was unable to control the things you would see during the genjutsu, and simply made it so that you would see your worst fear, due to which you saw those things," Shisui said.
"Do you know what I actually saw?" Kaida asked.
"Some of it. Your mind has advanced too much to see your memories without destroying your mind," Shisui said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"You are the worst and best brother I could hope for at the same time," Kaida said while shaking his head.
"Don't praise me so much, I may become arrogant," Shisui said while raising his head high.
"Too late, you are already very arrogant," Hae said while giving Shisui a slap on the back of his head.
"Can I come in?" came a calm and gentle voice from the door.
"Yes, aunt, please come in," Yomi said while opening the door.
This was the first time Kaida saw Mikoto Uchiha, the most talented kunoichi of the Uchiha clan, and wife of Fugaku Uchiha.
'Damn, she is way too beautiful than shown in the anime and manga,' Kaida thought.
As in front of him stood a lady with dark black hair like the night sky and eyes of the same color, her complexion was super white, making those black eyes and hair extra beautiful.
And even though she was the mother of two children, no one would say she was a day older than 25 years. Heck, she was even more beautiful than Hae. After seeing her, another thought came into Kaida's mind.
'If even she, who was now shown as a beautiful character in the anime, is this beautiful, then how gorgeous will the likes of Tsunade and others be?' Then he shook his head to forget those thoughts.
(A.N: No, he is not into older women, this is just an admiration of beauty, nothing more, nothing less 😉)
"So, how are you feeling now?" Mikoto asked, placing the tray of food at the table near Kaida's bed.
Since he was standing in front of the mirror with his sharingan active, Mikoto could see three tomoe inside them.
"Oh! Congratulations, Kaida," she said with a motherly smile.
"Thanks, Lady Mikoto," Kaida said, bowing a little as Mikoto was the wife of the clan head and held the second-greatest position in the clan, at least in name.

"Come on, you are like my own son, you can call me aunt like them," Mikoto said, pointing her hand toward Shisui and Yomi.
"Okay, aunt," Kaida replied cheerfully.
"Also, even though you are fine, still take some rest. Your mind and body need some time to form a balance after such changes," Mikoto said, and then turned to Hae and Yomi and said, "Also, both of you are coming with me, it's time you guys also take some rest." While dragging both Yomi and Hae back, Hae turned and said, "Kaida, if you need anything, just call me, think of this as your home only," and then took them both out of the room.
Kaida felt the reason why Mikoto said that he needed to rest so that his body and mind could find a balance, since now he was even having some difficulty in walking, like his body was reacting a tad bit slower than his mind would expect it to.
Even though the lag was of only a few milliseconds, it was registered by his mind due to the sharingan. Seeing Kaida's confusion, Shisui said, "Don't worry, your mind has become more powerful due to the 3 tomoe sharingan, and even though your body also improved, it was not at the same level as your mind. Just give it some time; after some time, you will be back to normal."
"Brother, can I use the Harmony Restoration Elixir for that?" Kaida asked.
"No, your sharingan growth will be inhibited by that, so that your mind and body would maintain a similar level of power. Normally, it is important, but if you do it now, you will only get an underdeveloped 3 tomoe sharingan and a little bit more powerful body. So you have to rest for your recovery," Shisui said.
"Okay, brother," Kaida said, then he remembered something and turned to Shisui. "Is this what the surprise you were talking about during our travel was?"
"Nope, it was an unexpected surprise even for me. The surprise I was talking about... I will tell you tomorrow. By then, you should have recovered enough," Shisui said.
"Seriously, you're not going to tell me even now?" Kaida asked.
"Just wait for one more day," Shisui said and went off from the house.
With nothing left to do, Kaida went to bed and started meditating, to make himself familiar with all the changes in his body while circulating a little amount of yang chakra in all of his body to make it develop a little faster and keep up with his mind.
It was just like a cultivation manga protagonist who had to maintain a balance of various overpowered energies in his body so that his body would not be destroyed.
Just the difference was, Kaida didn't have any such danger.
...
While Kaida was taking his sweet time resting, Fugaku was working the most he had done in his life.
With many of his shadow clones all around him, he was making a report for all of the various clans all around Konoha.
This report contained details of all the 'accidents' that happened in their businesses or during some of their most talented ninjas died during a mission without even finding their bodies.
Even though they all suspected the Uchiha clan had done their best in finding the cause of all such incidents, with the help of the sharingan, they were able to find many clues. They had not only inspected the cases involving their clan but also those that involved other clans as well, all in the shadows.
Now Fugaku was compiling all that data. It contained various clues indicating Danzo's role behind all those incidents.
Due to this, he had not slept for the past two days, but finally, the compilation was complete.
He then quickly sent a sample of those reports to those clans with a request to come to the Uchiha clan to discuss further.
Within 3-4 hours, their replies came back that all the clan heads of those clans would come in 2 hours, as Fugaku had specially written that he had a plan but not time, so he wanted their reply as soon as they could.
After 2 hours, more than 15 clan heads came to the Uchiha headquarters. Fugaku had only called the leaders of major clans who could support him during his allegation, as smaller clans don't have much say in such matters.
He had also not called the Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi clan's clan heads since they support Hiruzen fully, so they would not go against his decision most of the time.
But just to be on the safe side, he had sent a report to each of those clans too, so that they would not oppose him during his political attack against Danzo.
