Konoha: Uchiha Extremists? Offering Loyalty!

Chapter 149 An Unending Conspiracy

"Yan, you should go back quickly and prepare the logistics!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up his pipe and sighed, "Yuki has proposed a lot of new bills. I need to take a look at them."

"Huh?" Mitokado Homura looked puzzled. Didn't he just 'arrange' things for the Uchiha?

Let's keep things separate!

Hiruzen Sarutobi patted En on the shoulder and turned back to his office.

You don't understand, he gave too much!

...

Uchiha New Training Ground No. 1.

A man and a woman, their hands crackling with lightning, the electric arcs emitting a crisp bird-like sound.

The two men joined their hands together, which were crackling with lightning, and charged toward a metal target.

boom!

With a single contact, the target was blasted into fragments.

Scattered iron filings streaked through the air.

"Yuki, your newly developed Lightning Release: Chidori requires the Sharingan for positioning, but its power is considerable. With a little training, the two of you can unleash the Composite Lightning Release: Chidori. It's practically a technique tailor-made for the clan!"

Mikoto Uchiha graduated early from the Ninja Academy and joined the police force. She remained gentle, but she often stopped calling Yuuki "brother".

Eleven-year-old Uchiha Yuuki has grown to 1.8 meters tall compared to a year ago, and looks almost the same as an adult.

Yuuki patted Mikoto's head and smiled.

"Mikoto, your talent for Lightning Release is quite good. With a little practice, you will soon be able to master Lightning Release chakra transformations."

"However, the training of taijutsu cannot be neglected; for a ninja, that is of paramount importance."

Mikoto smiled gently: "I understand!"

"Oh, right, take this." Yuuki smiled and handed Mikoto a small gift box.

"A gift?" Mikoto asked expectantly, though she said it wasn't a good idea, she quickly tore the gift box open.

Placed in the very center of the gift box is a specially made three-pronged kunai, crafted with exceptional skill.

It has a special mark printed on it, along with a bunch of incantations.

Next to the kunai, there was a small spirit scroll.

"Is this a new kunai?" Mikoto asked, her eyes crinkling with joy. "Thank you, Yuuki. I really like this gift."

"It's not that simple." Yuuki grabbed a kunai and threw it at the target.

Mikoto watched the kunai fly out with a puzzled look, then her pupils suddenly contracted as Yuuki appeared next to the target, his right hand resting on the specially made kunai.

"This seems to be... the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

Mikoto opened her mouth slightly and shouted excitedly, then her cheeks turned bright red.

As the granddaughter of Elder Chu Huo and the 'sister' of the current clan leader, how could she not have seen information related to the Flying Thunder God?

That's a special ninjutsu that the evil white-haired old devil specially researched!

Most Uchiha elders' first lesson in raising their offspring is inextricably linked to the white-haired old ghost.

The next moment, beneath Mikoto's feet, a butterfly that had been dancing gracefully transformed into a purple light.

Yuuki reappeared beside her.

"When the Senju and Uchiha went into business together, Grandma Mito gifted me a ninjutsu. As a symbol of friendship, I chose the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Yuuki grasped the tip of the kunai and placed the specially made kunai in Mikoto's palm. "Keep the kunai with you. The incantation on it serves to conduct chakra. When you encounter trouble, input a little chakra and I will definitely appear by your side."

Mikoto smiled as she looked at Yuuki, carefully putting away her kunai, then looked a little worried.

"This technique must consume a lot of energy, right?"

Yuuki briefly assessed his chakra levels and found that since using the Super Beast Power Bank, he hadn't had any worries about chakra levels.

Not enough chakra?

Add a few more Kabuterimon!

"Not much. For me, a single close-range movement using the Flying Thunder God Technique only requires the equivalent of releasing a Great Fireball Jutsu. The amount of chakra consumed varies depending on the distance and the target being moved. I can afford it."

In close combat, it consumes even less chakra than the clone swapping technique of the Perfume Butterfly.

It consumes more chakra than the Reverse Summoning Technique.

However, the Flying Thunder God Technique allows for multiple teleportations in one place, and as long as the reaction speed is fast enough, the combat bonus is considerable.

"As expected of the clan leader!"

Mikoto was very satisfied. The clan leader was very busy, but he could spend half a day with her practicing ninjutsu.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked toward the village.

Based on the tone set by Yuuki, the main focus is on rectifying the "unscrupulous merchants" in the village, supplemented by adjustments to the village's architectural planning.

With the ninjas' productivity, rebuilding a bunch of houses wouldn't be too much of a hassle.

After several months of renovation, the village has been completely transformed.

The streets are clean, businesses are operating in a standardized manner, life is vibrant, and everything is thriving.

Yuuki and Mikoto strolled leisurely through the bustling Konoha.

However, some discordant voices were brought in by the foreign caravans.

Many villagers began to spread rumors that something was amiss.

...

"I heard from my uncle's neighbor's godson that Your Excellency seems to be quite dissatisfied with our village."

"Dissatisfied with the village? How could that be?"

"Why are you dissatisfied? Is it because of the war?"

"No, it's the Uchiha clan, it's the police department!"

"Don't you even know what the Police Department is?"

“My second uncle was beaten by the police and developed a lot of illnesses. He still can’t get out of bed!”

"The Uchiha clan has always had a bad reputation; many poor vendors have had their stalls overturned by the police!"

"The key point is that during wartime, those police ninjas only swagger around at us ordinary people and never go to the battlefield!"

"What?! My son is still fighting on the battlefield in the Land of Grass! So many Uchiha ninjas aren't even on the battlefield?!"

"You've gone off-topic! It seems the daimyo is unhappy with the village's mistreatment of merchants! The root of the problem is the police department!"

"The head of the Uchiha clan, I remember his name was Uchiha Yuuki, he was a very good doctor!"

People always change; the past is the past, and the present is the present!

"Is that so? Hokage, why didn't you send the Uchiha to the battlefield? Wouldn't it have been better to replace my son?"

"Your son also went to the battlefield?"

"Shh, watch your mouth, or the police might climb through your window in the middle of the night!"

"We're just civilians, how dare ninjas attack us?"

"Don't be so cowardly. If it really comes to blows, the Hokage won't stand idly by."

Soon, Yuuki overheard the conversations of passersby.

He was somewhat disappointed. After waiting for so long, the move was still the same old propaganda game.

This time they were a little smarter and didn't let public opinion erupt directly from the village.

Instead, they indirectly spread unfavorable information about the police department among the villagers through passing caravans.

"That's interesting."

Mikoto looked at Yuuki with a worried expression: "Shall we go back first?!"

She knew that Yuuki had been building his prestige and cared a lot about his reputation.

The villagers' comments are probably a huge blow!

"Well, it's true that we shouldn't let bad things ruin our mood."

Yuuki put on a smile, but a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

The villagers of Konoha are still too disorganized and lack proper manners.

Screening is necessary!
