Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

"Hokage-sama, these are the assets seized from the Tenne clan, as well as the stolen money returned by those people, totaling 2,336 million ryo."

As July approached, Nara Suzaku sorted out the recent situation and handed the information to Shisui.

Shisui took the document and took a look at it. Over the years, Konoha must have lost more than this amount of money, but it would be difficult to find out and recover any more, and Shisui didn't want to push it too far.

But Shisui does not intend to let go of some people who still hold on to their luck.

"I have given them enough time. If they don't appreciate it, don't blame me.

Suzaku-senpai, notify the police department to start arresting people."

Nara Suzaku nodded in agreement. After all, those who value money over their lives are a minority, so there is no need to beg for mercy.

"Izayoi, what's the situation in the village? Have you noticed anything unusual?"

After Nara Suzaku left, Izayoi, wearing an ANBU mask, instantly entered the office.

At this moment, Izayoi was appointed by Shisui as the captain of the Anbu, leading the Anbu to observe the movements of the Konoha ninjas for Shisui.

The new laws of Konoha were quickly revised and promulgated under the guidance of Yan Shifan. Ordinary villagers in Konoha did not react much, but the ninjas were all literate, so they certainly understood the meaning of those articles.

"Ordinary ninjas have a neutral attitude, or they don't care about it at all."

Being literate doesn't mean they will understand these provisions. Shisui had anticipated this. After all, the second generation's provisions have been issued for so many years, and not many people would deliberately understand them.

"The attitudes of the ninjas who are interested in these articles are mixed. The ninjas who are not related to the departments support them, while the ninjas who work in the departments mostly have complaints."

This change is aimed at these people, so naturally they will have opinions.

"It's okay. There aren't that many ninjas from all the different tribes combined. As long as the majority of the villagers have no objection, it's fine."

Shisui sighed. He was not money, and no matter how well he did, he couldn't please everyone.

"How's the situation over there, Danzo?"

"A spy sent a letter saying that Danzo secretly spread ninjutsu to win over ninjas in the army, and he acted very quickly. Many Chunins in the camp benefited from him, and Danzo's reputation has also improved. Should we let him come back in advance? As long as he leaves the army, we can get rid of him on the way and then blame it on Iwagakure."

The Uchiha's hatred for Danzo is barely concealed, and the same is true for Izayoi.

Shisui shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't worry about it. Danzo still has his role. I have other things here that I need you to go to."

Izayoi became interested. It seemed that all the ninjas in the village were very honest, which made him feel very uncomfortable as he had no place to use his strength.

"Please give your orders, Hokage-sama."

"I plan to have you go to Kyoto. This time it's a long-term mission. If nothing unexpected happens, you won't be able to return before the end of the year. I'll give you two days off to spend time with your family."

"Long-term mission?"

Izayoi thought of Uemura Takeshi and immediately felt something was wrong, so he asked hurriedly, "Is it another protection mission?"

"Hahaha, you are worthy of being Izayoi. You guessed it right away. But for the specific content of the mission, go find the third elder. He will tell you."

"."

Izayoi was helpless. Compared to this kind of protection mission, he would rather stay in Konoha so that he could see the child at any time.

But he still obeyed the order, nodded and said, "Yes."

After Izayoi left, Shisui looked at the two unopened intelligence sent by the ANBU, one from the Land of Water and the other from the Land of Rain.

After reading, Shisui's brows gradually furrowed.

The news from the Water Kingdom is relatively good. The general situation is as follows.

A large-scale riot broke out in the Water Country. Konoha's spies took the opportunity to sneak into the Hidden Mist Village and later discovered that the Hidden Mist Ninjas were actually divided into two factions fighting each other in the country, and this fighting had lasted for nearly half a month.

There was turmoil in Kirigakure, but this was not a bad thing for Konoha, because the Water Country was isolated overseas and Konoha could not intervene at all.

But Shisui was still very curious, what on earth happened in Kirigakure that made it become so chaotic?

At that moment, Shisui immediately called on the Anbu members to go to the Whirlpool Country garrison to deliver the message.

"Tell them to keep a close eye on the sea. If there are any Kirigakure ninjas crossing the sea, try to capture them alive and get information about Kirigakure."

"Yes!"

Next was the intelligence about the Rain Country. The Rain Country, which had always remained mysterious, also had movement. Shisui sent spies scattered throughout the Rain Country to send out intelligence one after another. The Hidden Rain Ninjas left the village on a large scale and began to sweep through the country's foreign ninjas. Spies and wandering ninjas from various countries suffered heavy casualties.

The intelligence also mentioned that there is an organization in the Hidden Rain Village that calls itself "Akatsuki". Its members wear black robes with red clouds, which is quite mysterious.

Shisui frowned, having a bad feeling, the Rain Country and the Fire Country are adjacent to each other, once the other side makes any unusual movements, a battlefield will break out in an instant.

"The Rain Country has been consumed by other countries for so many years, and the strength of the Rain Village should not have recovered. Could it be that Hanzo is too old to be willing to die like this?"

Shisui originally wanted Izayoi to go to the Land of Rain to gather intelligence, but the Hidden Rain Village was so mysterious that he didn't want to provoke them too early, so he let Izayoi go to Kyoto.

"It would be nice if Grandpa was here."

After thinking for a moment, Shisui rubbed his temples and thought of Sima Yi stationed in the north.

He has become the Hokage. Logically speaking, the original strategy of stationing troops to seize power is no longer useful. However, Sima Yi wants to stay and train his troops to accumulate experience, and he cannot persuade him.

At the moment, he had no clue, so he had to ask someone to deliver the information to Sima Yi, and wrote a letter to express his longing for Sima Yi, hoping that Sima Yi could return to the village as soon as possible.

Afterwards, after finishing the work at hand, Shisui pushed some trivial matters to Nara Suzaku and returned home alone.

Unexpectedly, Fugaku, who had been staying quietly in the ancestral hall, was chatting with Yan Shifan in the study.

"Huh~ Shisui is back."

Fugaku was relieved to see Shisui coming back, and after saying a simple goodbye to Yan Shifan, he was about to leave.

"Hey? Uncle Fugaku is leaving soon?"

Shisui was stunned. It was a rare occasion for Fugaku to visit, so why was he leaving now?
"Well, I still have to practice with Itachi, so I won't stay." Fugaku looked at Shisui again with a strange expression. He refused to stay and left.

".Okay, Uncle Fugaku, take care."

Shisui looked at Fugaku's departing back, and was very curious, so he turned around and asked, "Teacher, Uncle Fugaku is here, is there something going on?"

Yan Shifan handed the things on the desk to Shisui and said, "This is the information that Orochimaru asked him to bring back. It is related to the Eternal Mangekyō. As for the others."

Yan Shifan suddenly smiled, and then explained under Shisui's puzzled gaze: "You still remember his pupil technique, right?"

"It's natural."

The left eye of Bishamonten can foresee scenes in the distant future, and the right eye of Shenhuang can give birth to a child with strong talents. "You said before that the interval between the use of pupil skills will be greatly reduced after the transplant of the first generation cells. When he came today, I asked him about it. Sure enough, his pupil skills can be used now."

Shisui blinked, then suddenly reacted after a moment, and suddenly widened his eyes and asked, "Is this teacher trying to persuade Uncle Fugaku to continue having children?"

"Of course. You have seen Itachi's talent. Sasuke's talent is probably not bad either. If there are a few more geniuses like him in the family, it will be of great benefit to the family and the village."

Yan Shifan said this with some emotion in his heart, only Shisui didn't care about these things, otherwise he would never want the Fugaku family to survive.

"You should try to persuade him, and it would be best if he could take in some concubines to help him."

Shisui's face turned green. No wonder Fugaku looked at him strangely. It seemed like he thought this was what he meant.

Shisui quickly stopped him and said, "Teacher, let's not talk about this anymore."

After saying this, he did not dare to stay for long and left in a hurry, for fear that he would be persuaded by Yan Shifan.

But the news quickly spread throughout the entire clan, and became more and more outrageous.

A few days later, Zhishui got off work in the evening and returned to the tribe. As usual, he greeted the tribe members on the road.

However, for some reason, Shisui felt that the way these people looked at him was wrong.

He left on purpose and then returned, only to hear one of the women say, "Have you heard that the clan leader is actually looking for a matchmaker for Lord Fugaku?"

"Isn't Master Fugaku already married and has children? Why would the clan leader do such a thing?"

"You don't know this. I heard that the clan leader fell in love with Mikoto, so he forced Fugaku-sama to divorce and marry someone else!"

"Nonsense, the clan leader is not that kind of person!"

"That's right, the clan leader is the Hokage, how could he do such a thing?"

The woman was refuted and her face turned red as she explained: "Even if I heard it, I wouldn't believe it."

A few people walked away while talking, leaving Shisui with a dull look in the corner.

"Who? Who is talking nonsense there!"

Shisui was so angry that his face turned red. How could they talk nonsense like this? He had always respected the Fugaku couple, and this was simply throwing mud!

He hurriedly walked towards his home, but when he approached the yard, he saw three people standing at the gate. When Zhishui looked closely, he felt his scalp tingling, but he had to bite the bullet and go to meet them.

"Kinhuo, why are Aunt Mikoto and Itachi standing at the door?"

Jinhuo looked at Shisui, opened his mouth to speak, but held it back and remained silent.

Shisui moved forward and met Mikoto's gaze. Although Mikoto was smiling, she looked chilling. Itachi was standing next to her and looked at Shisui with an equally strange look.

Shisui was silent for a long time under such a gaze, neither side said anything, Shisui finally couldn't help but took the initiative to say: "Uh haha, I haven't visited Aunt Mikoto for a long time."

Mikoto still had a smile on her face as she replied, "Hokage-sama is very busy. You have to take care of all the big and small things inside and outside the clan. It's normal that you don't have time to visit me."

Shisui's mouth twitched, and he lowered his head in embarrassment and explained: "I'm sorry, Aunt Mikoto, I just learned about the rumors in the clan. I will deal with it as soon as possible. As for the whole story of this matter, I will ask Uncle Fugaku to help me explain it."

Shisui couldn't tell the specific situation, so he could only bow his head and apologize.

Mikoto naturally wouldn't completely believe those rumors, but she had already confirmed one of them through Itachi, so she came to complain with resentment. However, seeing that Shisui had a good attitude, the dissatisfaction in her heart quickly dissipated.

And said: "Shisui-kun, you are the Hokage now, and there are many people around you, and they are diverse. You must carefully distinguish what they say."

".Aunt Mikoto is right."

Shisui knew that this was a reference to Yan Shifan, and he felt helpless, so he had to change the subject and asked, "Aunt Mikoto hasn't eaten yet, right? It's a rare opportunity for Aunt Mikoto to come over, so why don't you stay with Itachi and eat something before going back?"

Mikoto shook her head, "I still have to go back to cook for Sasuke and Naruto, so I'll be leaving now."

Go ahead, she looked at Itachi, who shook his head and said, "I have something to talk to Shisui-san, I'll be back later."

Mikoto smiled gently, stroked Itachi's hair, and said softly, "Then Itachi should go home early."

"Ah."

After Mikoto left, Shisui finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Itachi suddenly asked, "Why did Shisui-san let my father take a concubine?"

"This"

Shisui smiled awkwardly, then quickly pulled Itachi into the yard and explained, "It's not me, I didn't. Don't listen to what outsiders say. What I meant was that I hope Uncle Fugaku and Aunt Mikoto can help you have more brothers and sisters. I didn't mean to persuade Uncle Fugaku to take a concubine."

Itachi tilted his head and continued, "But Dad said that this is what you meant."

The matter was finally explained clearly, and Zhishui put the blame on Yan Shifan.

Shisui then asked Kyohei to find the source of the rumor, but he didn't expect that the rumor came from outside the clan.

"The family is located on the edge of Konoha, and there are not many outsiders nearby. How could the rumors come from outside?"

Shisui's eyes changed, and he realized something was wrong.

"It seems that someone is deliberately trying to disgust us, or to sow discord between you and Fugaku."

Yan Shifan drank tea with a calm expression, but he was gloating in his heart.

"Can you find out who did it?"

Kyohei shook his head. "Although there aren't many people near the clan's land, there are many merchants on that street. Many people go in and out of Konoha every day, so it's hard to track them down."

"These guys!"

Shisui was speechless, but had to let it go for the time being. Fortunately, the person who spread the rumor didn't know the true content of the matter, and apart from disgusting him, it had no other impact on him.

And these are just small episodes in life. The Ninja World and Konoha seem to rarely have peaceful moments, but life must go on.

Two days later, Izayoi was ready and left the village with some funds and several teams of ninja.

After the 2.3 billion in stolen money came into the account, Shisui finally had some money in his pocket for once. The spoils from the looting of nobles by the twelve senior ninjas outside the village could be used openly. The debts owed by various departments were paid immediately, and the outstanding war mission remuneration and pensions were also smoothly distributed.

Shisui also specially arranged for the Anbu and the police department to keep a close eye on the movement of the money. To his surprise, there were actually a few people who dared to take advantage of it.

Shisui was not polite either. After finding out the facts, he sentenced all people to the maximum sentence. Those who met the limit would be executed directly without any leniency.

Time flies, and soon it is September.

The Ninja School is welcoming enrollment again, and Shisui finally turns his attention away from the ninjas from various divisions. These people are the future of Konoha. (End of this chapter)
