Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 23 Departure
After the induction meeting, the newly joined security team members happily went home with the ninjutsu scrolls handed out by the vice-captain.

When Uchiha Dohuan returned to his office, he saw Fugaku sitting in his office chair with a gloomy face.

"Doohwan..."

"Elder Fugaku, I will get more money this time I go out." Uchiha Dohuan guessed that Fugaku would ask him about money. After all, the 6000 taels of transportation subsidy he had promised before was not a small number. Combined with the salary, the money he got from the Yamanaka clan would not last long, so he spoke directly.

"Which clan is it this time? The Utatane clan? Or the Mito clan?" Uchiha Fugaku asked curiously.

"The Ninja clan? How much money do the Ninja clan have?" Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile, "Why not be bold, Elder Fugaku, who are the richest people in our Ninja world?"

Uchiha Fugaku's pupils shrank. He didn't expect that Uchiha Dohuan would be so bold. It could be said that this was completely challenging the existing rules of the ninja world. Compared with what he was going to do, Uchiha's armed rebellion in the village was just like playing house.

Looking at Uchiha Douhuan's smile, Uchiha Fugaku wanted to stop him. However, thinking of the increasingly clear future that his Mangekyo eyes had seen since Uchiha Douhuan came to power, and the glory of the Uchiha clan far exceeding that of their ancestors, Uchiha Fugaku suppressed his thoughts and just reminded him, "Be careful."

"I will. Then, Elder Fugaku, please take care of the security department while I'm away," said Uchiha Douhuan.

"I understand." Uchiha Fugaku nodded, stood up and prepared to leave Uchiha Dohuan's office.

"By the way, Elder Fugaku, please have someone deliver 10 million taels to me later. It's cash. I need it for the mission." Uchiha Douhuan said.

"Ten million? So much? What are you planning to do?" Uchiha Fugaku was a little surprised. What kind of mission would require ten million taels?

"It has nothing to do with the mission itself. This mission is not important." Uchiha Douhuan said, "What is important is to let the ninjas who participated in the mission feel the Uchiha's kindness."

"Okay, I'll have someone send it to you shortly." Uchiha Fugaku nodded, then turned and left the office.

After Uchiha Dohuan sat in the office for a while, Fugaku sent someone to deliver the 10 million taels. After receiving the money, Uchiha Dohuan sealed it with a sealing scroll, then packed up and prepared to go home after get off work.

But at the door of the security department, Uchiha Dohuan met an unexpected person. Uchiha Shisui was standing in front of the door of the security department, apparently waiting for him.

"Let's talk?" Uchiha Douhuan raised his eyebrows and extended an invitation to the genius who was once as famous as him in the clan.

Uchiha Shisui nodded and followed Uchiha Douhuan.

Under the setting sun, the two of them walked together towards the clan territory. Neither of them spoke first, but just walked slowly.

Children returning home from the ninja school ran past the two of them in waves, laughing and playing. This scene touched Shisui a little, so he was the first to break the silence.

"Dou Huan, what exactly is your purpose?" Uchiha Shisui asked with some difficulty.

"Didn't I tell you my purpose long ago?" Uchiha Dohuan said as he bought two strings of glutinous rice balls from a roadside meatball stall. He handed one string to Shisui and ate it by himself.

"You said that just to disturb me, right?" Shisui said, "Everything you did was to narrow the distance between the clan and the village, so that the clan and the village can coexist peacefully." "Really? Maybe what I said was true?" Uchiha Dohuan said in a ambiguous tone.

"Dou Hwan, it's already this late, don't lie to me anymore." Shisui said, "You were right. I was too arrogant. The power of Beelzebub is too dangerous in my hands. If I'm not careful, my family and village will be doomed."

Uchiha Douhuan looked at Shisui and couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart that his cousin was really silly and cute.

"By the way, why are you in the Security Department today? Although you have always been on the staff of the Security Department, I remember that you have rarely come to the Security Department since you went to the Anbu." Uchiha Douhuan said.

"It was Lord Hokage who asked me to come back and keep an eye on the unstable elements in the clan." Uchiha Shisui said.

Hearing this, Uchiha Douhuan laughed: "Finally remembered the spy mission assigned to you by the clan? And, the unstable element, are you referring to me?"

"No." Shisui shook his head, "Hokage-sama believes that you, Douhuan, are a ninja with the will of fire in your heart."

Uchiha Douhuan suppressed a smile and said, "Really? Anyway, no matter what, I still have to thank you today. If you hadn't taken the initiative to stand up, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to end it."

"This is what I should do. After all, Dohwan, you are doing this for the sake of harmony between the tribe and the village." Shisui said sincerely.

"Anyway, since you're back, just work hard in the Security Department." Uchiha Dohuan patted Shisui's shoulder and encouraged him.

The two parted ways at an intersection. After Uchiha Douhuan returned home, he took out a scroll from the study. The scroll contained the addresses of the Fire Nation nobles and big businessmen who had close ties with the Shimura clan, which were found out by the interrogation department in the past few days.

After Uchiha Douhuan selected a few places that he would pass through during this mission and marked them out, he put the scroll away and began to check the ninja tools he would need when going out.

……

A night passed, and early the next morning, Uchiha Douhuan waited at the gate of the clan territory for Uchiha Inahori and Uchiha Zaito, who had been waiting there in advance.

After the three of them met up, they walked towards the village entrance.

When Uchiha Douhuan and the other two arrived, the other members of the mission had already gathered at the village entrance.

Although the number of people was not large, they were still divided into several small groups.

Two civilians with no ninja background huddled together, the two ninjas from the Utsune clan and the Mitomon clan mixed together, while a ninja from a small ninja clan like Gekko Hayate was over there with his lover Uzuki Yugao, communicating with the ninja from the Inuzuka clan while stroking a big black dog.

As for the two Hyuga clan members who were recruited, they stood alone and looked noble.

The captain of this mission, Kakashi, was squatting under the eaves of a small shop at the entrance of the village that had not yet opened, flipping through Little Liu Bei.
