Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 51 Legislation
To be honest, Uchiha Douhuan was stunned when he learned that the Security Department had legislative power.

They have both legislative and law enforcement powers in their hands, and they also have their own armed forces. In the original timeline, the Uchiha clan would have ended up like this.

But when you think about the fact that most of the family members only care about muscles and family honor, and the few who have a little bit of brains are either fooled or timid and have no courage at all, it is not surprising that this ending happened.

However, all this is different in Uchiha Dohuan's hands. He knows very well how to make good use of the existing power in his hands.

Shisui's work efficiency was quite high. Uchiha Dohuan's order was issued, and two days later, a document entitled "Supplementary Provisions to the Konohagakure Village Public Security Administration Punishment Law" was placed on Uchiha Dohuan's desk.

Uchiha Douhuan, who was sitting at the desk, flipped through the draft submitted by Shisui, nodded with satisfaction, looked up at Shisui who was sitting at the desk with an expectant look, and said, "Well done, Shisui, you put your heart into it."

"It's all for the will of fire." Shisui said with a smile when he saw that Uchiha Dohuan seemed very satisfied with the results of his efforts over the past two days.

"But don't you think the punishment is a bit too light?" Uchiha Douhuan said, pointing to the punishment measure on the table that included a fine and verbal education.

"Doohwan, they are just ordinary villagers. This punishment is already very strict." Shisui was a little confused.

"Shisui, it seems you still don't understand what I mean." Uchiha Douhuan said, "Before I explain, take a look at this first."

Uchiha Douhuan stood up and took out a document with confidentiality level A written on the cover from the filing cabinet behind him and handed it to Shisui.

"This... isn't good." Looking at the words "Confidentiality Level A" on the file bag, Shisui hesitated.

"Just look at it if I let you. I believe that you, who also possess the will of fire, will not reveal these secrets at will." Uchiha Douhuan said.

"Okay." Shisui nodded reluctantly and opened the file bag.

What was contained inside was the truth about the White Fang incident that was dug out from the mouths of the high-ranking members of the Shimura clan.

"This... this... this..." The bloody truth shocked Uchiha Shisui beyond words. He had also heard about the Fire Will Study some time ago, and thus he learned about White Fang, the hero of the village. But what he didn't expect was that behind the death of this hero, there were so many filths hidden.

"Is the point of enacting this law to punish those villagers? No! What we need to do is to protect the reputation of the heroes! Just imagine, if the heroes who have made great contributions to the village can be slandered, then who will still believe in the glory of the Will of Fire!" Uchiha Douhuan looked into Shisui's eyes and said sternly: "The past of Senior White Fang must never be repeated! This is my Will of Fire!"

"I understand." Shisui sighed and said after putting the document down.

"You've done a great job, leave the rest to me." At this time, Uchiha Douhuan spoke.

After spending some time together, Uchiha Touhan also understood Shisui's personality. This guy was still as innocent and cute as ever. However, Uchiha Touhan also found that this guy was not so much brainwashed by Sarutobi Hiruzen as by the Will of Fire. This saved Uchiha Touhan a lot of brain cells. After all, for someone whose head was full of the Will of Fire, the Will of Fire was useful to everyone. As long as Uchiha showed that he was more of a Will of Fire than Sarutobi Hiruzen, then Shisui would naturally stand on the side of the family. Shisui left in a state of dismay, while Uchiha Touhan picked up the draft on the table and began to revise it.

After the modification was completed, Uchiha Douhuan called Uchiha Inahori and asked him to prepare to bring people to post the notice in the village.

In the latest version of the bill, Uchiha Douhuan made detailed provisions on punishment measures.

Those who participate in spreading rumors will be fined and given a verbal warning if the circumstances are not serious.

Those who participate in spreading rumors and slandering village heroes, and the circumstances are serious, will be sentenced to administrative detention for 7 days to one month.

Anyone found to be the source of the rumor could be sentenced to up to six months in prison.

Uchiha Douhuan took this legal document and went to the Hokage's office.

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is still the village's most prominent leader. Even if Senju Tobirama gave the Uchiha the power to legislate, Uchiha Touhan would have to let Sarutobi Hiruzen know about it for both moral and legal reasons.

After Uchiha Douhuan arrived at the Hokage building and reported his purpose, Sarutobi Hiruzen made Uchiha Douhuan wait for a while before calling him into the Hokage's office.

Uchiha Douhuan entered the Hokage's office and saw the Hokage's assistant Nara Shikaku standing next to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and smiled in his heart.

It seems that due to the threat from the other gods, this old guy really doesn't dare to meet Uchiha Douhuan one-on-one. Every time he meets Uchiha Douhuan, there must be at least one person present beside him.

However, this was exactly what Uchiha Douhuan wanted. Uchiha Douhuan placed the new legal provisions in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, then bowed and said:
"Sandaime-sama, there have been a lot of rumors in the village recently. In order to curb this bad atmosphere, the Security Department intends to introduce a bill on this matter. Hokage-sama, please review it."

As soon as Uchiha Dohuan finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Nara Shikaku beside him looked at each other. Nara Shikaku lowered his head and said nothing, while Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the bill submitted by Uchiha Dohuan and began to read it.

After a long while, Sarutobi Hiruzen lit his pipe, took a deep breath, exhaled a cloud of smoke, and then slowly said, "Dou Huan, isn't this punishment a bit too severe?"

"Serious? I don't think so," Uchiha Douhuan said righteously. "If anyone can wantonly slander the heroes who risked their lives for the village, then what is the Will of Fire? Where the leaves dance, the fire will never cease. The flames will continue to illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout. But if we can't even protect the reputation of the heroes who are willing to burn themselves for the village, then who will be willing to burn themselves for the new green leaves in the future?"

After Uchiha Douhuan finished speaking, Nara Shikaku silently took two steps back and lowered his head.

Even though he is now the assistant of Hokage, the Will of Fire is a slide that ordinary ninja clan leaders like him cannot even touch.
