#52 - The Uchiha Clan's Cage

"Next, congratulations to Uchiha Taro, Uchiha Jiro… who will be joining the Konoha Police Force starting today."

In the dim secret room, Ye Yue's restlessness and Kiyoshi's smile seemed inconspicuous.

Uchiha Fugaku began to congratulate the clan members who joined the Konoha Police Force this time.

The clan members whose names were called stood up immediately, looking excited.

Watching the clan members' excitement about joining the Konoha Police Force, Kiyoshi's smile became more playful.

The Uchiha are, after all, members of Konoha, and inevitably influenced by Konoha's 'Will of Fire'.

Fugaku even proposed a bloodless revolution.

But unfortunately, the Konoha Police Force is a cage from beginning to end!

Under the guise of monitoring criminals, the police force and the prison are set up in the same place, blatantly driving the Uchiha to the corner of the village.

Moreover, law enforcement officers are prone to offend others and attract resentment.

In the anime 'Kakashi's Anbu Arc,' the Uchiha only arrested people for drunk and disorderly conduct, but the surrounding passersby said that the Uchiha were too strict.

They didn't care what the consequences would be if the drunk and disorderly people continued to cause trouble.

Even so, the Uchiha still regard this place as a glory.

They are responsible for managing public order every day, dealing with trivial matters such as children scribbling, and villagers arguing.

The Uchiha clan's extraordinary talents are wasted on these things.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

"Haha, thank you for your support."

Several clan members who had just joined the Konoha Police Force were full of smiles.

"The Uchiha clan is thriving."

Fugaku sighed, there have been many talented people in the clan recently, and there are geniuses in medical ninjutsu like Kiyoshi.

Why worry about the Uchiha not prospering?

Thinking about it, Fugaku cast his gaze in Kiyoshi's direction.

Seeing Kiyoshi's bright smile, he couldn't help but nod.

It seems that this child has a strong sense of collective honor, and he will be happy for his clan members joining the police force.

…………

The next day.

Kiyoshi went to get his diploma.

His team leader Jonin hasn't been arranged yet, saying that he will meet with the team members in a few days.

So Kiyoshi followed Mikoto to the clan to receive the 'Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique'.

The 'Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique' is the Uchiha clan's signature ninjutsu, and most Uchiha ninjas can use it.

This time, Uchiha Yakusen's attitude was obviously much better.

The Uchiha clan is a clan where strength is paramount.

In the past, Kiyoshi was just a new clan member, and only had one Sharingan.

Now, he has transformed into a young talent who graduated early, has no shortcomings in ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu, and is valued by Yakushi Nonou, the captain of the medical team.

No one wants to offend such a genius.

"This is it, it seems our Uchiha has produced a genius."

Uchiha Yakusen found a scroll, took it out, patted the dust off, and turned to look at the two people behind him.

The scars on his face overlapped, making his smile look very ugly.

"Yes."

Mikoto nodded.

Her black hair was simply tied into a bunch with a white hairband and draped behind her waist, with two strands of fine hair falling on her delicate and flawless face, adding a touch of competence compared to when she was a young woman.

She was quite surprised that Kiyoshi could graduate in such a short time.

You know, Kiyoshi hasn't received any early education or training.

Many Uchiha clan members, before entering school, their families would take their children to hunt, practice ninjutsu in advance, and so on.

Kiyoshi didn't have any of that.

"You flatter me."

Kiyoshi smiled faintly, taking the orange-yellow scroll in his hand.

The change in attitude is laughable.

"Sister Mikoto, where is the Ninja Cat clan located?"

After Kiyoshi got the scroll, he wanted to get his own ninja sword as soon as possible.

"I'll take you there, it looks dilapidated, but there's a lot of difference inside…"

The two came out of here and walked outside the Uchiha settlement.

As they walked, Mikoto introduced Kiyoshi to what the Ninja Cat clan is.

The Ninja Cat clan is said to be a clan, but it is actually a summoned ninja beast raised by Cat Granny.

And Cat Granny is the owner of this weapon shop.

The scale of this shop is second to none even in the five major countries.

…………

Not long after, in the evening, Mikoto and Kiyoshi arrived at a place full of ruins.

As long as you have a pass and explain your intention, you can come outside the village.

The village itself doesn't manage ninjas very strictly.

Almost all of the Uchiha clan's ninja tools are purchased at Cat Granny's shop.

Therefore, the Ninja Cat clan and the Uchiha clan have a very close relationship. They regard the Uchiha clan as honored guests, and even give the Uchiha a lot of information. They are one of the Uchiha's sources of information.

"It's really desolate."

Kiyoshi looked at this place.

You can see that this place was once very prosperous.

I don't know why it became dilapidated and became the ruins it is today.

Compared with the prosperity of Konoha, this place can be said to be deserted.

Mikoto nodded in agreement.

Her first time here was the same as Kiyoshi's feeling.

Then she led Kiyoshi to continue walking forward, and occasionally she could see broken walls and rats popping up from nowhere.

After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived at a rather impressive place.

There was an old plaque on it, vaguely recognizable as the word "Empty Zone".

"It's here."

Walking in, there were many dazzling underground passages.

However, Mikoto obviously came here many times, and skillfully led Kiyoshi to turn left and right, and soon saw two ninja cats wearing clothes.

"It's Mikoto, is the one behind you the new Uchiha you often talk about, meow?"

"Looks no different from other Uchiha, meow."

One of the ninja cats carefully looked at Kiyoshi, only feeling that he was stronger than ordinary Uchiha.

"Take us to see Cat Granny."

Mikoto stood in front and communicated with the two ninja cats for a few words, gave them a few boxes of matatabi drinks, and the two ninja cats began to lead the way in front.

This drink is the ninja cat's favorite.

Before long, they arrived at an open and clean place.

The walls were covered with pottery pots and ninja tools.

Mikoto stepped forward and talked to an old woman with a dark gray cat ear decoration on her head, smoking a pipe, that was Cat Granny.

Kiyoshi didn't see any traces of little girls near Cat Granny.

I guess her granddaughter Tamaki hasn't been born yet.

Tamaki also looks good, and in 'Boruto,' Inuzuka Kiba became her lover.

But they haven't gotten married after being in love for more than ten years.

"What kind of ninja sword do you want?"

Cat Granny turned her head and asked Kiyoshi while smoking her pipe.

Her nose is brownish-black, I don't know if it's paint or something else.

"It's best to have a metal with good chakra conductivity, good hardness, and no big requirements for the shape, just as long as it's long enough."

Kiyoshi began to state his requirements.

Anyway, the money is paid by the Uchiha, so Kiyoshi naturally wants the best.

The old author's book, the book and the title are the same, the quality is guaranteed, if you like it, you can go and have a look.
