I have a bunch of relatives who want to become Hokage.

There's no other way; I have to take it back to Konoha to exchange for money.

Coming here is quite troublesome, but leaving is very easy. Once you learn the Dragon Land Cave Immortal Technique, you can come and go freely.

The point from which we emerged was the same, the same place where we entered the cave.

"Alright, let's wrap this up first." Releasing the Jonin of the Hannya Clan, Uchiha Shingen used his Sharingan genjutsu to give them instructions, telling them to treat the remains of their former comrades in the most cruel way he could think of.

It doesn't matter if the way a ninja dies is creative or not; what kind of death have ninjas not seen?

On the contrary, this is what makes it deterrent.

So many days have passed, the changes at the Hannya Clan's base should have been discovered by the ninjas in the vicinity, which is just as good.

The Land of Stone is full of rebellious ninjas and energetic civilians; the best deterrent effect can be achieved through their words.

Upon arriving at the camp of the Hannya, Uchiha Shingen saw several bounty hunters rummaging around inside, some of them beheading people.

Stealing business? How can we tolerate that?

I'm showing you, not telling you to steal spellcasting materials!

Eat shit!

One slash and one kill; a few more innocent souls have been added to this place.

Then the Jonin of the Prajna sect began their work.

Finally, he tied a tree for everyone.

More and more people are gathering nearby, but none of them are coming in.

There must be spies at the root of this place.

That would be the best.

Having finished their work, the Hannya disciples stood beside Uchiha Shingen, looking completely distracted.

The manipulation-type genjutsu performed using the Sharingan does not actually deprive the victim of their will; their consciousness remains clear, but they cannot control their bodies.

This can also be considered a punishment given to him by Uchiha Shingen.

Everything should follow rules, but the Prajna community does not follow rules, so this is only natural.

Rules are meant to protect the majority of practitioners.

With this unlucky fellow by his side, Uchiha Shingen embarked on his journey back.

He traveled smoothly without any obstacles, and no one tried to rob him because they were short of money.

Having completed his task, Uchiha Shingen no longer concealed his identity.

Before he even entered the Land of Fire, he had already heard the news that "Konoha sent Uchiha clan ninjas to annihilate the Hannya clan with cruel methods."

In this way, Danzo Shimura would definitely find out as well.

You'll definitely feel that the money was well spent, right?

When Uchiha Shingen saw the gates of Konoha again, he felt extremely relieved.

However, he didn't go in right away, but waited in the woods for a while.

Soon, a Root ninja appeared, glanced at the Jonin of the Hannya Clan, and asked Uchiha Shingen, "Lord Shingen, when will the genjutsu be broken?"

"Soon, you'll have enough time to bring him back to the base."

"Lord Danzo said he would add more money to the mission reward." The Root ninja nodded, sealing the Jonin of the Hannya group as he spoke. "Lord Shingen, thank you for your hard work this time. I'll take over from here on out."

"Alright, I'll head back then. Call me if you need anything." Uchiha Shingen turned to leave, but suddenly turned back to the Root ninja and asked, "That guy who runs the teahouse, does he have a permanent position?"

"Yes, it's an important position."

"In that case, you should bring him a few packs of cigarettes whenever you have time. He has to use shadow clones to smoke."

"That's why he and his wife are preparing to have a baby." The Root ninja had already sealed the Jonin of the Hannya group into a giant dumpling with sealing techniques. He picked them up and said to Uchiha Shingen, "It's common for our comrades outside to suffer, but they're not so poor that they can't afford cigarettes."

So it turns out you were trying to conceive, then it's fine.

Uchiha Shingen waved his hand and went home.

Chapter Twelve Don't Get It Wrong

Upon returning to the entrance of the clan compound, Uchiha Shingen saw Uchiha Shisui waiting for someone.

This gave him a bad feeling.

"Brother Shingen." Uchiha Shisui waved. "Hey? Brother Shingen, don't pretend you didn't hear me, you can see me."

"What is it now?" Uchiha Shingen reluctantly stopped. "I just got back from work, I'm exhausted."

"Oh, when you went out to work, the quarterly bonus arrived, and it was supposed to be deposited directly into your account."

"Hmm?" Uchiha Shingen blurted out, "This won't do. The financial system must be strictly enforced. Financial security means clan security."

"No, it's because Lord Danzo sent another two million taels of silver right after you left, and he said there was a balance to be paid. The clan leader said that yours would just be paid together when you come back."

"Oh~" Uchiha Shingen was satisfied. "Why are you being so formal? Everyone should be treated equally. It's not good to keep mine for a separate distribution."

This is really great; the feeling of being treated specially is the best.

Wait a minute, why are we suddenly being treated differently?

“The clan chief said that since you’re back, you should go see him.”

See? I knew something was up!

And... they've completely grasped his weaknesses!

As expected, leaking intelligence is never a good thing!

Uchiha Shingen couldn't help but think of a certain unlucky guy in the future who was so arrogant because he was unkillable, only to have all the information stolen by the survivors of the previous mission, and ultimately had to spend his life with the earth.

That's fucking awful.

"Understood, I'll go now." Uchiha Shingen had no choice but to head towards the Uchiha Fugaku residence.

Then he noticed that Uchiha Shisui had followed them.

Why are you still here?

"The clan chief wants me to go with him."

"We're brothers, don't hide anything, tell me, is there something I don't know?"

"No, that's really not the case. Maybe the family has never earned any money from the roots."

Impossible! The Uchiha clan couldn't be that shallow!

With this in mind, Uchiha Shingen entered the gates of the Uchiha Fugaku clan.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Itachi Uchiha playing with a doll.

No, I misspoke. It's not a baby; it's the reincarnation of Indra.

"Teacher!" Itachi Uchiha ran over excitedly, "Look, I have a little brother!"

Why are you so happy about having a younger brother? Is it because you've been drinking too much nutritional supplements?

Once he's a few years older, you'll want to fight him!

Brothers develop their bond through fighting when they're young. How could you not know that? You're such a foolish child.

"Congratulations then." Uchiha Shingen reached out and styled the other person's hair into the shape of an eight-headed serpent.

As a result, Itachi Uchiha was still grinning foolishly, not even paying attention to his hairstyle.

He really is a brother-obsessed idiot.

But... it's not the older brother who's obsessed with his younger brother, it's the older sister, which isn't fun at all.

"Where is the clan leader?" Uchiha Shingen asked.

"Father has been waiting for the teacher in the study for a long time."

Hmm? Is this meant to make him feel guilty? Have we been waiting too long?

Unfortunately, this tactic was too low-level, because it's impossible to make a man feel guilty.

"Okay, go play." After sending the students who had already entered NT mode away, Uchiha Shingen walked towards the study according to his memory.

Halfway there, they ran into Uchiha Mikoto again.

"Lord Shingen, you've arrived?"

"Sister Mikoto, how come you look even younger after having your second child?"

"Oh my, Shingen-kun, you have such a sweet tongue. By the way, the one I introduced to you last time..."

"Sister Mikoto, I'm going to see the clan chief now. He's been waiting for me for a long time."

Let's use the Body Flicker Technique!

Last time, I accidentally became quite skilled and seemed to have made the girl from my clan, whom Sister Meiqin introduced, very happy.

That won't do; we need to be more careful in the future.

Otherwise, he might accidentally start wholesaling Sharingan to his family, which would be bad and would ruin the established storyline.

As the saying goes, "Love is often accompanied by regret, and good dreams are always the easiest to wake from."

He doesn't want to be the one who wakes up from the dream; he only wants to be the immortal in the dream!

Once we get the money, let's call up Tiehuo and the others, and go all out again tonight!

Upon arriving at the study door, Uchiha Shingen knocked first, then opened the door and went inside.

"Chieftain, I'm here... Oh, practicing calligraphy?"

In the study, Fugaku Uchiha was meticulously playing with a calligraphy brush.

The posture is truly superb.

The characters, however, are still a bit lacking...

Forget it, just say it, it's horribly ugly!

Uchiha Shingen felt that this clan leader really should change his hobby.
