He was in Konoha, and his domineering aura was overflowing.

The only pity is that once the Yin and Yang attributes cross this threshold, ordinary people can no longer be squeezed dry. Those who can be squeezed dry are ninjas with good strength or bloodline limits.

Thanks to the presence of two supreme ninjas, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, when Konoha was founded, it attracted many ninja clans. Over time, these clans thrived in Konoha and, despite several wars, continued to prosper, with many clans becoming large and numerous.

How can we let such a high-quality resource slip by? We must instill the will of dominance in it!

Just as Wu Shixian was getting into the swing of drawing anatomical diagrams, another rustling sound of brushstrokes appeared.

The resistance has now gained the upper hand; should we change course?

Hinata Mizuki held the cardboard in her two small hands. On the cardboard was this line of text.

Chapter 23 Spy Screening

Hinata Mizuki's cheeks flushed unnaturally.

At first glance, she still looks like the timid girl she used to be, but after Isogen's guidance, she is no longer the weak girl she used to be.

Now she is a weak woman who obeys the commands of the fifty strings.

The differences are still quite significant.

I was bullied in the past because of my own reasons, which led to my feelings of inferiority.

I've made great progress now that I'm working with Gyūgen.

Throughout the past year, Fifty Gen has not appeared in many scenes, and Hinata Mizuki has been left to handle them.

Those energetic ninja academy students and kids also knew that Hyuga Mizuki was the embodiment of Isogen Yuka's will, so they dared not underestimate her anymore.

The changes in her life strengthened Hinata Mizuki's resolve.

Everything that Gyūgen-kun said was right after all. Gyūgen-kun is the sun!

Sensing the emotions emanating from Hinata Mizuki, Isogen smiled slightly.

After his Yin attribute was elevated, he gained the initial ability to perceive the emotions of others.

In his view, this was normal.

Just like the immense vitality of the Uzumaki clan and the power of love of the Uchiha clan, these are all manifestations of chakra.

To put it another way, ninjas train in killing techniques, and their research into chakra is all about exploring techniques, while he focuses solely on increasing yin and yang attributes.

The Yin and Yang attributes are the essence, which, in the terminology of cultivation in the previous life, is called the dual cultivation of body and mind.

Other ninjas practice ninjutsu that extracts chakra to kill, but for him, ninjutsu is something he can have, but he doesn't need to force it. Perhaps after his yin and yang attributes are enhanced, they will grow back on their own in a while.

For example, he developed a new technique of his own based on the pattern of explosive tags.

"It can be reversed in two stages."

The words of the fifty-stringed instrument had just fallen.

"Cough cough."

Uchiha Fugaku appeared, his eyes filled with helplessness as he looked at Isogen, and spoke earnestly.

"Isogen-kun, our police department already has a lot of tasks to do."

"So I'm contributing to your future talent pool. The quality of the ninja academy students is much better now than it was a year ago," Yuuka Igarashi replied calmly.

How could the police department possibly allow anyone outside the Uchiha clan to enter?

Fugaku Uchiha didn't say those words aloud.

Even if it's a profound saying certified by the Uchiha clan... anyway, it's something that's been widely discussed and condemned.

Hinata Mizuki scribbled notes on the paper and held it up.

Uncle, Ishigaki-kun is a good person.

Uncle...

Fugaku Uchiha's lips twitched slightly, and he sighed helplessly.

For some reason, he actually agreed with what Wushu said.

Another name for a ninja academy student.

cannon fodder.

Most ninja academy students are destined to become a brick in Konoha from the moment they step out of the academy gates. They are to be moved wherever they are needed. What if they break? Replace them with new ones. What about the old ones? Throw them in the cemetery and bury them.

But everything changes once you start operating from the 50th string.

Normal people, when given the power to resist, will generally choose to fight back.

Can the person who was sent back swallow this insult?

Absolutely not.

How can the person being resisted swallow this anger?

Definitely not.

And so, the turmoil at the Ninja Academy began.

The police department, watching from the sidelines, were caught in a dilemma: whether to take action or not.

The combination of commoners and clan ninjas was a formidable challenge even for the Uchiha Police Department, which was used to running rampant.

Because their own little devils are in there.

In this lively atmosphere, the ninja academy students' skills have significantly improved.

Yes, it has also made law enforcement more difficult for the police department.

"Let's get down to business, Captain Fugaku." Isogen remained unmoved.

Uchiha Fugaku retreated.

"I would like to ask you to help me find spies."

"Reward?"

"One million."

The 50-string looked strange.

Do all of you long-established families have a special feeling about the number one million?

"Settle the bill first."

"give."

Uchiha Fugaku was prepared, with a thick stack of envelopes.

Normal people wouldn't doubt the police department's speed in making payments. As for the Uchiha clan, they are arrogant, barbaric, and rude, but they don't owe money and refuse to pay it back.

But he knew Fifty Strings' thought process; this child's thinking didn't quite match that of ordinary people.

As Isogen left Konoha Hospital, the atmosphere in the hospital lobby visibly eased.

This is not the first time that Isogen has stepped into the police department.

Inside the police department's interrogation room, a man named Fifty-Six almost mistook the place for a gang meeting when he entered.

A single apricot-shaped scepter was sent by a potter to the temple. The scepter was on the back of fifty strings.

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha, a highly respected ninja in the police department, looked at Igogaku Yuka and nodded.

"Please."

Without any hesitation, Wu Xian took the center position, his gaze sharpened, and his domineering will surged. In just two breaths, he strode towards a merchant.

"This ninja fellow." The merchant revealed a shrewd smile, rubbing his hands together, about to speak.

next second.

Snapped!

A tremendous force he had never experienced before gently caressed his cheek, causing him to spin 360 degrees in mid-air before his thirteen teeth detached from his jawbone and launched an attack, slamming his face into the floor.

boom!

Before the suspects could make a move, Wu Zixian's slap landed.

A slap landed.

Snapped.

Snapped.

Snapped.

"Hmm?" Isogen tilted his head slightly, looking at the Konoha villagers who were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands.

"My lord, I am a law-abiding citizen! I am a genuine Konoha villager. My ancestors came to Konoha with the First Hokage."

Ignoring him, Isogen turned to look at Fugaku Uchiha, who immediately understood.

"He doesn't sprinkle sesame seeds on his ramen."

Snapped!

The joyful hand still fell under the gaze of despair.

Wu Zixian paused for a moment, then said calmly, "I don't like miscellaneous fish either."

The words had barely left his mouth.

"puff!"

Ignoring the newly added fountain by the police department, Ishizaki faced the folding pottery.

"The first one is a spy, but you should be able to handle that with your methods."

"I didn't expect it to be him. I thought it was someone else. This guy was just someone I used to make up the numbers." Uchiha Yatsuho grinned. "Don't worry about him, leave him to me."

Interrogation is one of the Uchiha clan's specialties.

Upon hearing that he had been dragged into the mess, the spy felt a lump of blood rise in his throat, neither rising nor falling, his eyes wide with rage.

Before the last darkness fell, all I saw was the little devil who slapped me and a heart-wrenching Zhan Kuai T chatting and laughing.

It's so dark in Konoha!

…………

"Isogen-kun's abilities in investigating spies are simply too strong."

While the team members were increasing the strength of the spy, Uchiha Fugaku and Isogen chatted about the topic.

To this day, he still can't figure out whether Isogen's ability to identify spies is a bloodline limit, a special ninjutsu, or a special talent.

“The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan can do this easily.”

Uchiha Fugaku smiled helplessly, a smile tinged with resignation.

The Sharingan is indeed powerful, but it cannot be forcibly used on civilians unless absolutely necessary.

Having already made contact with higher levels, he was well aware of the Konoha leadership, especially the Konoha F4 led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, and their wariness and vigilance towards the Uchiha.

Using the Sharingan against civilians in Konoha without any reason would undoubtedly give the other side leverage if word got out.

Well, that's true, but radical Uchiha don't care where you are or what you're from, they'll still use their Sharingan. Normally, they would have used it on everyone by now.

They now have a better option, one that doesn't require them to worry about the Konoha leadership causing trouble later.

Furthermore, a million dollars is just a drop in the ocean for the Uchiha clan. It's well worth the money to use it to build a good relationship with a genius who has entered the Hokage's field of vision.

Despite their arrogance, the Uchiha clan members understood the implications of their actions.
