Pay to Win Uchiha in Konoha (Completed)

Chapter 40: P2W 40 - Shady (1)



The armed law enforcement system of Konohagakure, also known as the Hidden Leaf Village in the Land of Fire, consists of five departments: Anbu, Root, Intelligence, Medical, and Barrier. These departments, collectively known as the Six Departments of Konoha, form the backbone of law enforcement within the village.

Ordinary shinobi are mainly assigned missions and, during times of war, organized into ninja armies. However, they do not possess law enforcement authority within the village unless they encounter spies or similar threats.

The Anbu and Root departments handle confidential and covert tasks within the village. The current leader of the Anbu is the daughter-in-law of the Third Hokage. It is known that the Third Hokage's eldest son and daughter-in-law are elite Anbu members, serving as his right-hand men.

The leader of the Root department is Danzo Shimura, a cunning figure known to all.

The Intelligence department is responsible for gathering and analyzing information. It consists of three subdivisions: Interrogation Division, Interrogation and Torture Division, and Cipher Division. The head of the Intelligence department is currently Inoichi Yamanaka.

The Medical department, founded by Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, is considered the most powerful medical unit in the entire ninja world. Although Tsunade is no longer in the village, her legacy lives on.

The Barrier department is a mysterious and secluded unit primarily operating within the village. Their duty is to seal the tailed beasts and safeguard the village, which is equally dangerous.

These are the five main departments of the Hokage line in Konoha. The sixth department is the Uchiha Police Department.

The Uchiha Police Department was established during the reign of the Second Hokage and serves as the Uchiha clan's formalized private force. It holds significant authority and has the power to enforce the law independently. They do not need to report to the Hokage and can act without seeking approval.

Despite its name, the Uchiha Police Department exudes a repressive atmosphere, especially for outsiders. It operates as a miniature political system with subdivisions such as Interrogation Division, Intelligence Division, Logistics Division, and Security Division.

As Uchiha Yoru observed the scene, he couldn't help but ponder the profound heritage of the Uchiha clan, which resembled a "one country, two systems" scenario.

"Yoru-niisan, here is the information you requested."

Shisui, an outstanding prodigy of the Uchiha clan, became a Jonin at the age of thirteen and, at fourteen, was already on par with elite Jonin. He held a high position within the Police Department.

As Yoru examined the information, he visibly relaxed and put the documents aside. He then noticed Shisui's downcast expression.

"Shisui, you're fourteen this year, right?"

Surprised by Yoru's nostalgic expression, Shisui nodded, somewhat bewildered. "Yes, Yoru-niisan."

Yoru sighed and shook his head. "Shisui, your talent is undeniable. You're as capable as Kakashi. But you're still young, and constantly exposing yourself to these dark matters might be harmful."

Feeling guilty, Shisui's face showed remorse. Yoru, who was only a year older, had already faced more darkness and shouldered the responsibility of bridging the gap between the Uchiha clan and the Hokage.

Realizing this, Shisui's previous melancholy and dissatisfaction vanished. If Yoru could handle greater pressure and delve into darkness, Shisui felt obligated to do the same.

"Don't worry, Yoru-niisan. I won't disappoint you!"

At that moment, a determined look appeared on Shisui's face, and Uchiha Yoru shook his head with a smile. "Shisui, you're mistaken. We're all doing this for our clan, for Konoha."

Casually pushing the documents forward, Shisui's eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked at the information in his hand, particularly the individuals mentioned.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Yoru, seated at the desk, lowered his head slightly, casting his gaze into the shadows, as if harboring a hint of despondency.

"Umino Itsuki!" As Shisui looked at the information in his hand, especially seeing that there was only one nephew, Umino Iruka, left among his relatives, and that his parents had sacrificed themselves during the Nine-Tails attack, his hand couldn't help but tremble.

"Yoru-niisan, what did Umino Itsuki do?"

Shisui's voice was lowered, sounding hoarse. It was just an ordinary chunin family, and their entire family consisted of ordinary chunin who had almost all perished during the Nine-Tails attack. Only one nephew, who was still in the ninja academy, remained. Shisui himself was just a chunin.

Seemingly sensing Shisui's reluctance, Uchiha Yoru took a deep breath and opened his eyes. In an instant, his blood-red Sharingan with two tomoe spun, emanating a suppressed aura.

"Shisui! A ninja's duty is to carry out missions. You shouldn't concern yourself with anything else."

However, upon hearing these words, a self-deprecating smile appeared on Shisui's lips, and he couldn't help but say, "Is it another one of those missions we handle for Root?"

The office was filled with a heavy atmosphere for a moment, but eventually, Yoru spoke up. Looking at Shisui's despondent mood, he shook his head and said, "Shisui, all of this is for the sake of Konoha."

"The recent arrest of Umino Itsuki should be handled cleanly. Transfer the shops under his name to Sarutobi Tsuki. Remember not to leave too many assets for Umino Iruka."

In other words, leaving too many assets behind would only harm Umino Iruka, who was about to graduate.

Shisui had clearly done this before, but each time, it was a mental torment for him.

"Yoru-niisan, how much longer do we have to do this?"

Finally, Shisui couldn't hold back and spoke up. It had been less than three months since they returned to Konoha, and he had already carried out too many secretive missions.

"Yoru-niisan, do you know how people in the village have been evaluating the Uchiha clan recently?"

Since their return to Konoha with Orochimaru, Orochimaru had been almost forgotten. However, as a member of Root, Orochimaru still had many tasks to be executed, most of which were secretive missions. Naturally, the Uchiha and Hyuga clans took over a significant portion of these secretive Root missions.

After all, Orochimaru's identity was there, even if he was in the shadows, he couldn't casually send someone else to execute the missions. Moreover, his position in Root was equivalent to the second in command, so naturally, he had to be responsible for carrying out some secretive missions.

These missions were then taken over by the Orochimaru clan, and with Uchiha Yoru's presence, naturally, they received the bulk of the missions.

But it was evident that these secretive individuals weighed heavily on Shisui, constantly challenging and reshaping his worldview.
