Chapter 43: INAZ - 42
---
"Yes. Itachi and Shisui's opinions or suggestions, you can calmly discuss with them," Shinji had read many Naruto novels. Most described Fugaku Uchiha as not actually wanting to rebel, but deciding to do so under the subtle influence of his clansmen and the council of elders. Therefore, if some variables appeared at this time, then...
"I understand. I will talk to them properly," Fugaku Uchiha nodded gravely, seeming to have made a momentous decision.
"Also, Clan Head Fugaku, what do you think... the Konoha Military Police Force has brought to your Uchiha clan?" Shinji raised his teacup, inhaling the rich tea aroma that instantly filled his nostrils.
"Just compensation and shackles given to our Uchiha clan by the Second Hokage," Fugaku Uchiha laughed self-deprecatingly. Konoha Military Police Force. Such a fine name? Such a vast power? Such favorable rights? These were all things conjured up by uninformed outsiders. Yes, the Konoha Military Police Force had some rights, but these rights weren't very significant, and mostly served to deter civilians. What? Ninja? Sorry, if a ninja actually committed a crime, it was highly likely ANBU or Root would come to apprehend them.
Moreover, the Konoha Military Police Force, while deterring civilians, also created unfavorable impressions among the villagers. The power of law enforcement, coupled with the arrogance of the Uchiha clan, could you still expect those dragged away by the Uchiha clan to turn around and vote for the Uchiha clan? What were they thinking? So, back then, Tobirama Senju essentially handed the most difficult and offensive department to the Uchiha clan. And at that time, no one in the Uchiha clan could think clearly about all this, instead happily accepting it entirely. This also led to the current awkward situation for the Uchiha clan.
"It seems... Clan Head Fugaku realized this long ago?" Shinji smiled. As a clan head, if he couldn't even figure out this small problem, then... the Uchiha clan could really just perish directly.
"Yes, I realized it long ago. But... I haven't been able to find a suitable solution," Fugaku Uchiha sighed. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about these issues before, but these problems were also a hot potato for him. Go tell his clansmen to be rational during law enforcement and not always put on a stinky face? Was that possible? Besides, all Uchiha clansmen possessed an inexplicable sense of pride, always feeling that being an Uchiha clansman inherently made them superior to others. Didn't you see the later Uchiha Sasuke? Arrogant like nobody's business, later even dared to use Lightning Release against the Raikage, and swordsmanship against Killer Bee. Simply incredible.
"Actually, if it's about this method, there are still some new approaches," Shinji smiled. The matter of the Konoha Military Police Force could still be resolved in some ways.
"I wish to hear the details," Fugaku Uchiha paused, then directly gestured for guidance. From the conversation just now, Fugaku Uchiha slowly developed great expectations for the Shinji before him. The Konoha Military Police Force, the Uchiha clan. These were Fugaku Uchiha's greatest heartaches.
"Clan Head Fugaku, I remember... during the war with Kumogakure, there were very few members of your Uchiha clan, right?" Shinji chuckled hehe, seemingly changing the subject.
