Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 187: Execution According to the Law
"you!"

Utane Koharu's pupils trembled and her face looked extremely ugly. Looking at the evidence prepared by everyone in advance, how could she not see that the target of today's meeting was not Fumio Kishi, but clearly her, Utane Koharu!
"Utatane Koharu has taken advantage of the Hokage's trust to do whatever she wants, causing disunity among the people of Konoha. Now, the students of the Ninja School have been affected. Her crimes are so serious that we cannot tolerate them. Please make a decision, Hokage!"

Seeing that several people didn't even call for the consultant, Utane Koharu's forehead was covered with sweat. He subconsciously looked at Shisui and explained, "It's not that I won't give the money that each department needs, it just takes time to transfer it. There are so many places in Konoha that need money, there has to be an order of priority."

"Damn it, these guys are deliberately trying to trick me, but I still have Hiruzen and the Fifth Hokage. I have made contributions to Konoha, and he promised that he would never touch me. As long as he is willing to believe me, I still have a chance to clean up the mess. At worst, I can just retire!"

Shisui frowned, with a somewhat conflicted expression, as if he was unwilling to believe that Utane Koharu would do such a thing, but he didn't know how to explain it to everyone.

Nara Suzaku stepped forward to help Shisui and said, "This happened suddenly, and the Hokage doesn't know the details. Now that everyone has their own opinions, why not let the Anbu and the Police Department jointly investigate, and then the Hokage will make the decision. What do you think?"

survey?

Both sides had different moods. Kishi Fumio and others were puzzled. They had already delivered the evidence, so why should they continue the investigation?
Then he came to his senses and felt delighted. The result of the investigation was inevitable. After all, if even they could find out, how could the Hokage not find out?
So several people said in unison: "Hokage-sama is wise!"

Utane Koharu was also thinking that the Anbu and the Police Department were working together, and it seemed that they were supervising each other, but in fact they were all Shisui's people. As long as Shisui was willing to help her for the sake of the Sandai, she could leave safely.

But what if Shisui is unwilling to help her?

While he was struggling, Shisui finally spoke up, "Advisor Tatsune has assisted the Third-Hero for many years and has made great contributions to Konoha. He is deeply trusted by the Third-Hero. I believe in the Third-Hero's vision. As for your requests."

Shisui said, looking at Utane Koharu with a questioning look.

"I am a man of integrity. If they want to investigate, then let them investigate!"

Utane Koharu understood what Shisui meant. This was for her to make a decision. Although she didn't want to investigate, others would definitely not give up without an explanation. However, Shisui's trust still made her feel a little relieved. She didn't expect that the third generation had such an influence on Shisui.

"In that case, Inahori, Kakashi, you two will each lead a team to investigate the situation in the Finance Department within seven days, and you must clear the name of the dormitory consultant!"

Kakashi appeared in an instant, half-knelt with Uchiha Inahiro and replied, "Yes!"

After getting the promise from the Hokage, the ninjas from various departments were very satisfied. However, their opinions diverged again regarding the handling of Kishi Fumio in the Ministry of Education.

"Godaime, Kishi Fumio is a jerk who maliciously sabotages the ninja school assessment and should be severely punished!"

Utane Koharu had cold eyes and squinted at Kishi Fumio.

Kishimoto Fumio naturally didn't want to take the blame, he snorted coldly and shouted directly: "Hokage, please understand, if it weren't for her, Tsutomu Koharu, embezzling the Ministry of Education funds, how could I pass off inferior goods as good ones?"

"You are talking nonsense. I only allocated the money in batches. You could have used the money to purchase ninja tools first. Now there is a problem with the assessment. It is obvious that you did it on purpose!"

"Corruption is corruption, what about disbursement in batches? Why don't I see the medical department's funds being disbursed in batches?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Nara Suzaku raised his eyebrows, and the expressions of everyone present changed. Shisui glanced at Kishi Motoo out of the corner of his eye.

Utane Koharu sneered, "The Medical Department is related to the safety of all the wounded. They are all heroes who have retired from the front lines. Does Kishimoto Jonin mean to withhold the funds of the Medical Department and give them to you, the Education Department?"

Kishi Fumio's face changed, and he quickly said, "That's what I'm saying, don't change the subject!"

"Or is it that the mission reward of a few invigilating ninjas is more important than the future of Konoha, and you put them first?"

"you!"

"That's enough. No matter what, I will never tolerate this matter regarding the future of Konoha. No matter who caused it, I will give you and Konoha an explanation.

But before the matter is clarified, please be careful with your words!"

Shisui's expression was cold and his tone was serious.

Utane Koharu was already unsure of herself, so she naturally didn't dare to object to Shisui.

Everyone shut up, even though they thought Shisui was a little weak when it came to being an advisor, he was the Hokage after all, and they had to obey him in public, though they couldn't help but feel a little contempt for him.

"After all, they are young people."

Everyone dispersed, and Kakashi and Inahori immediately took over the finance department.

Only Nara Suzaku stayed in the office quietly helping Shisui organize the evidence submitted by everyone.

"Hokage-sama."

Shisui took the documents, glanced at them casually and put them aside, as if he didn't care, or as if he already knew the contents.

Nara Suzaku's heart moved slightly, but he suppressed his curiosity as always.

Shisui took the initiative to ask, "Suzaku-senpai doesn't seem curious at all."

"Hokage-sama, you must have your reasons for doing this."

"Suzaku-senpai, do you think the dormitory transfer advisor would do these things?" Shisui's expression was as gentle as ever, and his previous anger had long since disappeared.

Nara Suzaku was silent for a moment, but finally replied: "The evidence is already here. If there is no problem with the evidence, then it should be true."

"Hahaha, Suzaku-senpai is still as rigorous as ever. However, what they found out cannot be considered evidence. Only what the Anbu and the Police Department find out can be considered evidence."

"Hokage-sama is fair and convincing."

Shisui's expression did not change, he stared at Nara Suzaku calmly and continued, "Then Nara Jonin, do you think there are other people like him besides the sleeping adviser?"

Nara Suzaku looked up suddenly and his heartbeat quickened.

"When there are more than a hundred people, there are all kinds of strange things. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Konoha, so there are always some who go against the will of fire, like the sleeping counselor. I think there must be some of them."

"Senior Suzaku still has a long-term vision. If I were alone, there would always be things I could not see. If you have any advice, you can tell me directly. You don't have to worry. As long as you ask, I will not hide anything."

"Thank you for your trust, Hokage!"

"Move, I'm not talking about you, Moeka, you are a medical ninja, pay attention to the formation, Itachi, make sure to protect these two!"

In Tokaido, Izayoi is leading three people on a mission. The target of the mission is a merchant caravan, which is actually the salt merchants who want to flee Tokaido because of the return of Kamimura Takeshi.

Their bounty attracted Kakuzu, who killed Uchiha Pan. Of course Izayoi would not let them go, so he brought a team to intercept and kill them.

Izayoi had already confirmed that there were no experts in the caravan, so Itachi led three of them to fight among a group of samurai and wandering ninjas.

Although Itachi was young, he was the strongest among the three. He killed one wandering ninja and samurai after another with just his physical skills and his superb shuriken manipulation.

The fight was over quickly. All three of them had been on the battlefield, seen corpses, and killed people, so they were already able to accept this.

Perhaps because he had relaxed for too long, Itachi looked at the corpses all over the ground and his brain began to think about some complicated questions.

"Why do we want to kill them?"

Izayoi was stunned for a moment, and then prepared to tell Itachi that they were seeking revenge. But seeing the other two also looking at him with doubt, Izayoi had to reorganize his words.

"When you get back, you can ask Kamimura Takeshi. He will tell you the reason, okay?"

As Izayoi spoke, his expression changed slightly and he looked up, only to see a crow circling, and after confirming Izayoi, it landed on his shoulder.

"This is Shisui-nii's ninja crow."

The crow landed on Izayoi's shoulder and looked into his eyes, then a three-magatama was reflected in the crow's eyes.

After a moment, Izayoi suddenly realized.

"It seems that you don't have the chance to ask Kamimura Takeshi now, so you should go back and let the Hokage tell you."

"Are we going back to the village?"

Izayoi sent a clone to bring the news to Kamimura Takeshi, who replied, "Yes, the Hokage has ordered me to take you back to Konoha within three days. Let's set off without delay!"

The three didn't know what was going on, but their basic ninja qualities made them move immediately.

Before leaving, Akira Kamikawa used earth-style ninjutsu to bury the bodies in the ground.

At the same time, Fugaku, who was serving as an experimental subject in the Land of Rice, also received news from Shisui.

"Hehe, are you leaving now?"

Orochimaru licked his tongue and looked at the experiment in front of him with reluctance.

Fugaku's expression was serious, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Lord Orochimaru, you should do your research on your own. I have to go back to Konoha."

"What a shame. The experiment has obviously made some progress. I'm afraid it won't be long before we can figure out the principle of how to advance from a normal Mangekyo to an Eternal Mangekyo. How about you tell Shisui and stay for another two months?"

".Next time."

After all, the Eternal Mangekyo is more important. Fugaku did not say anything absolute, but still insisted on leaving.

Orochimaru had no choice but to give up, then sent Fugaku to the entrance of the basement and watched him go away.

"The Uchiha have so many secrets. I really want to figure them all out~"

Seven days passed in a flash, and the news of the joint investigation between the Anbu and the Police Department into Utane Koharu had spread widely.

When it comes to the students of the Ninja School, every household in the inner area of ​​Konoha is very concerned and discussions about it continue all day long.

Although the matter has not been confirmed yet, the reputation of the Tsotsumi clan has been ruined and they are constantly cursed by the villagers.

This made Utane Koharu very angry, and she wanted to go find Shisui and test the waters, but Nara Suzaku said, in order to avoid suspicion, that the people involved were not allowed to meet the Hokage during this period, let alone contact with the Anbu and Police Department.

She had no choice but to turn around and look for the Third Generation, but was told by Sarutobi Hiki that the Third Generation was seriously ill and had not been seen for a long time.

This made Utane Koharu feel a little uneasy, but time would not stop regardless of anyone's will. On the eighth day, the top executives from various departments gathered in the Hokage Building.

The Anbu and the Police Department blocked the surroundings, nearly a hundred ninjas surrounded inside and outside, while Shisui sat in the office with a calm expression, and the ninjas from various departments lined up on the left and right felt a bit weird.

Utane Koharu arrived at the Hokage's office early and became increasingly uneasy when she saw such a scene.

After a while, all the ninjas from various groups arrived, and another person came to the door. It was Uchiha Izayoi.

When Izayoi arrived, everyone looked at him sideways.

The same is true for Utane Koharu. After all, she is another person besides Shisui who has awakened the Mangekyo. I heard that she has been carrying out special missions outside, and no one knows why she returned this time.

"Hokage-sama, everyone is here."

Nara Suzaku spoke, and when Shisui nodded, he continued, "After seven consecutive days of investigation by the Anbu and the Police Department, it has been confirmed that a total of 178,720,000 ryo has disappeared from the account books since Koharu Tenne took over the Finance Department. The fake accounts have been found and verified to be correct."

"what?"

Utane Koharu exclaimed, and everyone looked at her with speechless expressions.

"Why are you so surprised? Don't you know what you have done? We haven't even spoken yet!"

Utane Koharu stared at Shisui. She didn't expect that Shisui was really investigating. Did he disregard the face of the Third Generation?
Moreover, a mere Nara Suzaku actually dared to call her by her name, which made her even more uneasy.

"Bed Transfer Consultant, do you have anything else to say?"

Shisui sighed, looking very disappointed.

"This is a false accusation. Someone from the Uchi Anbu must have deliberately framed me. Hiruzen and I have managed Konoha for many years. How could we do such a thing!"

Utane Koharu argued sharply, but was interrupted by Nara Suzaku, "I haven't finished reading yet. The above is only what Utane Koharu did after taking over the Ministry of Finance. According to the account books that have been checked so far, there was also corruption of 1.73694 billion ryo in the Medical Department when the Sandaime was in charge of Konoha."

hiss~
This time, not only Utane Koharu, but all the ninjas in the room gasped.

1.7 billion!

It’s more than the end-of-year allocation of the damming.

"No, it's fake, all fake!"

Utane Koharu suddenly stood up and roared loudly.

"Sleeping consultant, I have always believed in you, but I never thought you would deceive me like this. Now that the evidence is irrefutable, are you still going to quibble?"

Shisui stared straight at Utane Koharu with cold eyes.

Looking at the pile of evidence and the gloating eyes of the ninjas from various divisions, Utane Koharu suddenly calmed down and slowly bent down.

"Godaime, this time it's my fault. I am willing to resign as a consultant and return all the money I borrowed during this period."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. As long as Utane Koharu lost her position as an advisor and her power, they would be satisfied.

"Hokage, you can't do that. Utatane Koharu's actions have not only had a huge impact on the various departments, but also caused Konoha to suffer countless losses. It has also affected the students of the ninja school. According to Konoha's laws, knowingly breaking the law is a punishment for multiple crimes. She should be executed!"

"what?"

Everyone's pupils trembled, and they all looked at the person who spoke. It turned out to be Uchiha Inahiri from the Police Department! Shisui's right-hand man!
