Chapter 220 Leisure in Konoha
"That's it for now!!"
In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage looked at the names checked on the roster and a slight smile appeared on his face.
He tapped lightly on the table a few times.
Swish! !
A ninja wearing a hooded robe and a cat-faced mask appeared in front of the Third Hokage's desk.
"Hokage-sama!" the man bowed to the Third Hokage.
"This is the mission this time, we need them!! Go and give them the mission letter!" The Third Hokage handed the roster he had just been marking to the Anbu.
"Understood, Hokage-sama!!"
Swish! !
The cat-faced Anbu disappeared again in an instant.
Ichiraku Ramen Shop!!
"Oh, Ozusuke, you haven't come to eat at my place for a long time! Have you found a new restaurant?" The young-looking man joked as he watched Okamoto Zusuke slurping his noodles.
"No way, I can never get enough of Ichiraku Ramen! I will come here often in the future. I didn't expect that Ayame can cook noodles by herself now!!" Okamoto Dousuke put down his chopsticks, looked at the stove, holding a strainer in one hand, and made ramen in the future.
Because he is small, Acorus stands on a small stool.
“Hehehe! Are the noodles I cooked delicious!!” Acorus asked with a smile.
"Of course it's delicious, you have already grasped the essence of Brother Ichiraku!!" Slurping, Okamoto Dosuke's mouth was filled to the brim with a few chopsticks of ramen.
"You little brat, stop praising her!" Although the hand-type looked like he was blaming Okamoto Dousuke, the alternative boasting in his words was so strong that Okamoto Dousuke couldn't even look at him.
Bah, what a daughter slave. Okamoto Dousuke just saw a customer saying that the noodles cooked with calamus were hard, so he took over and beat this guy and dripped a few drops of special spicy agent into the noodles.
But time flies by so fast!
The last time I saw Acorus, she was still shy, but now she can even tease me when she sees me.
Looking at Acorus's skillful way of cooking noodles, time really waits for no one! !
Every time I come back from going out, I always have a bowl of Ichiraku Ramen first.
Okamoto Dousuke slurped up the soup in the bowl which was infused with the delicious ingredients.
"Burp..." Okamoto Dousuke burped.
What a blessing! I don’t miss home after eating!
"Let's go!"
"Oh!!" The hand-beater simply responded and continued to make the next serving of ramen.
After paying the bill, Dousuke Okamoto opened the door curtain and walked out of the ramen shop.
Okamoto Dousuke stroked his round belly and walked towards Uchiha Obito's house.
He made an appointment with Obito that he would go to his house to help treat his injuries when he had time.
He happens to have time now.
Although Okamoto Dousuke did not know the exact location of Uchiha Obito's family, he still knew the location of the famous Uchiha clan's territory in Konoha.
Walking slowly towards the edge of the village, unlike the Hyuga family, a big family is located in the prosperous area of the village.
Just like the name Uchiha, people in the village always look at him with fear when they mention this name.
At this point, we have to admire the Second Hokage's cleverness in playing politics.
Let the Uchiha clan serve as Konoha's security department.
This not only solved the Uchiha clan's request to hold an important position in the village, but also handed the safety of the village to the Uchiha clan. What else could the Uchiha clan say?
At the same time, the hard work of guarding the village day and night was also given to the Uchiha clan. If anything went wrong, the Uchiha clan would be to blame.
In addition, the Uchiha clan's security department is usually responsible for the internal security of the village, the daily management of the village civilians and the sanctions on all matters, etc. Even some frictions between ninjas are under the jurisdiction of the security department.
The responsibilities of the Security Department were so heavy that the village elders and advisors once complained about the decision of the Second Hokage, believing that such an important position should not be given to the Uchiha clan.
Among the students of the Second Hokage at that time, only Danzo Shimura clearly expressed his support for the Second Hokage's decision.
The Uchiha clan happily took over the responsibility of Konoha's security department.
After a long period of law enforcement in Konoha Village, the villagers of Konoha, including ninjas from some small families, protested against the Uchiha clan's law enforcement practices.
Because of the Uchiha clan's inherent arrogance, coupled with their lack of strictness in enforcing the law and their unwillingness to listen to advice, people have a great resistance to the Uchiha clan.
In this way, the Second Hokage, using a position in the Security Department, successfully made the ninjas and villagers in the village develop a resistance to the Uchiha clan.
More importantly, the Konoha Guard is a small group in itself, and it is difficult for them to truly become the top leaders of Konoha.
Ever since the founder of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Madara, left Konoha, no one from the Uchiha clan has been able to truly enter Konoha's core decision-making level.
At the advanced high-level voting meeting, except for the Uchiha clan, almost no ninja cast a vote for the Uchiha.
Walking past a stone tablet, you will see a large blue background with a fan that is half red and half white. Although it looks a bit like a table tennis racket, it is the classic family emblem of the Uchiha family.
Entering the Uchiha clan's territory, there are small shops on both sides of the street, and the sound of hawking is endless.
These people selling things are all ordinary people from the Uchiha clan who have not awakened their ninja talents.
Another part are children born from intermarriage with ordinary villagers of Konoha, and some are people who married into the Uchiha family from Konoha or married into the Uchiha family.
Okamoto Dousuke looked at these ordinary people. The Uchiha had formed a structure similar to a small society in their own clan territory.
These Uchiha clan members who are at the bottom of the society and have no ninja talent cannot even inherit the Uchiha surname.
Only those clan members who become ninjas are qualified to inherit and use the Uchiha family name.
Because of the resistance of the Konoha villagers towards the Uchiha clan.
So gradually the Uchiha clan formed this strange family model, and the food and goods produced by the Uchiha clan were almost self-produced and self-sold.
If this phenomenon happened in a remote village or an isolated place, Okamoto Dousuke could understand it, but it happened in Konoha, the largest village in the ninja world.
This phenomenon is absolutely abnormal. It is like a small self-sufficient country is born within a country. How can the people of this country accept this family?
"What a powerful political tactic!!" Looking at the Uchiha family, Okamoto Dousuke sincerely admired the political wisdom of the Second Hokage.
