The Uchiha security force in Konoha has undergone a major reshuffle.
Shisui's Sharingan was taken away by Elder Danzo.
Although Danzo later returned the Sharingan, Shisui and the village had essentially broken ties completely.
These news reports from Konoha quickly reached Kirigakure.
It's important to know that Kirigakure and Konoha are separated by several villages and are located on an island, making the journey quite long.
The people of Wuyin were used to such timely intelligence, because the current Grand Elder had risen to power based on his outstanding intelligence gathering.
The people of Wuyin all believed that the Grand Elder controlled a secret force.
The Grand Elder was highly respected because he was responsible for investigating the ninja world.
Upon receiving the order, Qing felt it was a rare opportunity and immediately assembled the team to set off.
Danzo's "Root" organization is stirring up trouble everywhere on the streets.
They might create chaos, but the Uchiha security forces never intervene.
The affected merchants all went to the security team headquarters to file complaints.
But the Uchiha clan seemed unmoved.
The standard response was: the staff member has been suspended after the complaint was filed, and there is a shortage of manpower.
As for the Uchiha family's own shops, there was absolutely no way anything could go wrong.
Several Uchiha security teams were patrolling the area, turning a blind eye to the conflict in the nearby streets.
Many merchants simply filed complaints directly with the third-generation distributor.
The third generation looked at the thick stack of complaint forms on the table.
He rubbed his temples and said, "So, the Uchiha clan suspended 80% of their forces in one day?"
The Anbu responded: "Yes, the Uchiha began dealing with the personnel who were previously complained about this morning, suspending them all for reflection."
"Currently, the security team is short-staffed, and security problems outside are frequent (1042 incidents), but no one is taking action."
What's Kawasaki up to, or what's Fugaku up to?
The Third Hokage couldn't fathom the Uchiha's intentions at all; this trivial matter didn't seem like revenge against Konoha.
After all, if the situation escalates, the secret service will naturally intervene.
Moreover, Kawasaki had already made prior arrangements, contacting the Hyuga family to have them take over.
The Third Hokage took a puff of his pipe: "How are the talks between the Hyuga clan and Kawasaki going?"
“Uchiha Kawasaki gave the Hyuga clan all the security team deployments and patrol routes without reservation.”
"It's just that the Hyuga clan needs to send people to familiarize themselves with the route, which will take about a week."
The deployment and patrols of the security team have always been the responsibility of the Uchiha clan, and the Hyuga clan does need time to make arrangements.
The Third Hokage tapped his pipe: "The Anbu should keep a close watch this week. If anything major happens, you should intervene directly. Once the Hyuga clan takes over, you can withdraw."
"Yes!"
......
Uchiha clan territory, training ground.
After most of the security team members were suspended, the Fourth Elder left them all in the clan territory.
Many security team members, having nothing to do, spontaneously came to the training ground to practice.
Hey! Yangshu!
Uchiha Yoki, who was practicing shuriken, stopped. It was his teammates Oura and Rikuto.
"What's wrong?"
These two have been partners for a long time and have a good relationship in private; they can be considered friends.
Daipu laughed and said, "You didn't know that the Shimizu Tavern was burned down today, didn't you?"
Yang Shu raised an eyebrow: "That tavern on Third Street?"
"Yes, he got into trouble with a drunkard again today. The drunkard was not satisfied with being beaten, so he burned down his shop. He won't be able to open for business for a while."
The Lu people were somewhat gloating.
"Nobody stopped them?"
Oura shook his head: "There's no one left. From the first street to the seventh street, all of our Uchiha people have been suspended."
"Then why don't they complain?"
Lu Ren laughed loudly: "Complain, of course we'll complain, but it's no use complaining, we're short-staffed in our security team right now."
“Usually those bosses are very vocal, either saying that we are not strict in enforcing the law, or complaining that we are violent.”
"The Uchiha didn't care today, but they still came running over. They're really shameless."
"I heard that the Fourth Elder was very happy today, he was even humming a song as he walked."
Yang Shu laughed when he heard this: "We Uchiha have suffered so much injustice all the time, these people deserve it."
Da Pu asked, "The Fourth Elder has suspended our work and hasn't mentioned any new tasks."
"Yang Shu, do you know what the deputy clan leader plans to have us do?"
Yang Shu shook his head: "I'm not too sure either, but the deputy clan chief said we had a tough time in the guard unit..."
"We'll have a week off, and then we'll have tasks assigned to us again."
......
Night falls quietly.
Uchiha Kawasaki had been honing his skills at the clan's training grounds.
He had just acquired the Mangekyou Sharingan, which gave him a huge leap in power...
Chapter 11 is powerful enough that it needs no one else's approval.
Whether it's the sharpness of their vision, the power of their illusions, or their physical agility, they have all made great progress.
However, apart from unlocking a powerful move called Susanoo, his Kaleidoscope hasn't unlocked any other eye techniques.
This made Kawasaki uneasy, but he wasn't in a hurry, since he didn't need it right now.
Kawasaki could clearly feel that his eyesight was much stronger than that of others.
As he practiced, he was also thinking to himself, trying to see who in the clan had a talent for business.
However, most Uchiha ninjas are skilled in combat, and very few know how to manage or operate a business.
There was a young man named Uchiha Keimei who stood out.
Although he only unlocked the double-magic-pointing technique at the age of seventeen, he had other skills: business, scientific research, and logistics management.
Qiming used to be Kawasaki's teammate. This kid is actually an all-rounder. I didn't realize it before. I need to nurture him properly.
Besides Uchiha ninjas, ordinary villagers were also on Kawasaki's radar.
Most of these villagers run small businesses in Konoha Village, and some of them are actually quite talented.
Kawasaki silently memorized all these people; this was the final piece of his plan.
Kawasaki was surrounded by groups of clansmen practicing in twos and threes.
Occasionally, snippets of everyday life drifted into his ears.
When he got tired of training, Kawasaki walked over and sat down to drink water and rest.
At that moment, Fugaku was listening to the reports from the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder.
"Clan leader, today I have taught the Hyuga clan the defensive layout and patrol routes of our guard team."
"It will probably take about a week for the Hyuga family to send someone to learn and for them to officially start working."
Fugaku nodded.
Did those people cause trouble after they came back?
Fugaku asked.
The Third Elder shook his head: "No, those troublemakers came back today and spent their time at the training ground, or they gathered together to chat. They didn't cause any trouble."
The Fourth Elder chimed in, "Of course they won't cause any trouble; they're just watching those people make a scene today."
"What's the excitement?"
The Third Elder spends all his time in the clan and doesn't pay much attention to things outside.
The Fourth Elder said smugly, "Those merchants on the street, back when we Uchiha were around, they complained every day..."
"It's not that lax enforcement is the problem; the most common complaints are about police brutality."
"Everyone came to ask today, 'Where did the guards go?'"
"You wouldn't believe how eager they were, asking us when we were going to send someone over, the look in their eyes!"
The Fourth Elder clicked his tongue, a smug look on his face.
Now you remember how good we Uchiha were, huh? Hey, we Uchiha aren't going to put up with that anymore.
He now somewhat understood Kawasaki's intention in doing this.
The Third Elder also discerned something and looked at Fugaku.
Fugaku nodded: "I can see that too. Kawasaki is just giving his clansmen an outlet for their anger. Kawasaki said this is just the beginning, and the Uchiha will have many more opportunities in the future."
The Uchiha clan is actually best suited for the security detail, since every Uchiha is a jack-of-all-trades.
They possess illusion magic that allows them to subdue troublemakers instantly, and they have keen observation skills, enabling them to spot any problems promptly.
They are fierce in physical combat, agile, and can quickly arrive at the scene.
But because of what happened in the past, the people of Konoha selectively ignore these things.
The Uchiha clan members always wanted the villagers to accept them.
In fact, the Uchiha clan never needed anyone else's approval.
