Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 54 Forced into the Palace
"Report!" At this time, Uchiha Inahimi suddenly knocked on the office door and walked in.

"A large number of villagers suddenly gathered at the gate of the security department. They blocked the gate and demanded that we release the people." Uchiha Inahimi said.

"What?" Uchiha Tetsuyu, a veteran jonin in the clan with a hot temper and a former core force of the radical faction in the clan, slammed the table on the spot. "How dare they! Do they think our security department is made of clay?"

"Captain Tieyou, please be patient." Uchiha Douhuan said, then looked at Uchiha Inahiro, "What's the situation now?"

"Zaidou has taken two teams of ninjas to the entrance of the security department to maintain order." Uchiha Inahimi said.

"Well done! Calm the villagers down first. I'll be there in a moment." Uchiha Douhuan said, "Tell Zaidou not to resort to violence first."

After Uchiha Inahiri left, Uchiha Douhuan also instructed the other captains in the office: "You stay here and look at these interrogation records. Captain Fugaku and I will go to the door to check."

"Understood!" The six captains in the office nodded.

Afterwards, Uchiha Dohuan and Uchiha Fugaku walked towards the gate of the Security Department together.

Just when the two were about to arrive, Shisui hurried over and stopped them.

"Captain, Vice Captain." Shisui saluted the two.

"Shisui, if you have nothing to do, just step back. Don't you see that the situation is urgent?" Seeing Shisui blocking his way, Uchiha Fugaku looked unhappy and scolded him.

"Captain, Vice Captain, let me go negotiate with the villagers," Shisui said. "If the conflict escalates further, the situation will get out of control."

"This is not something you are in charge of." Uchiha Fugaku said with a stern face.

"It's okay, Captain Fugaku, I think it's a good idea to leave this matter to Brother Shisui." At this time, Uchiha Dohuan said with a smile.

"Dou Huan?" Uchiha Fugaku was a little confused.

"In addition to serving in the Security Department, Brother Shisui also worked for a period of time in the Anbu directly under the Hokage. I think if he comes forward, he can represent the Hokage's intentions to some extent. Moreover, I believe that Brother Shisui can handle this matter without conflicting with the villagers." Uchiha Douhuan smiled and patted Shisui's shoulder, "Brother Shisui, I leave this matter to you."

"Don't worry, Doo Hwan, I will take care of it." Shisui showed gratitude. In this situation, Doo Hwan was still willing to believe him. How could he not be moved?

Seeing that Shisui had already accepted the task, Uchiha Dohuan simply returned to his office with Fugaku.

After arriving at the office, Uchiha Fugaku immediately spoke impatiently: "Do you really believe that Shisui can solve this matter?"

Uchiha Fugaku, who had dealt with the village troublemakers for many years, knew very well how difficult these troublemakers were. Shisui grew up in the war years and went straight into the Anbu without any formal experience working in the security department. How could he deal with these troublemakers?

"Elder Fugaku, I understand what you mean." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile, "But now that Shisui has returned to the security department, he should try to learn how to interact with the villagers."

Uchiha Douhuan pulled out a thick stack of documents from the filing cabinet, opened them and placed them on the table, then looked up at Fugaku.

"By the way, Elder Fugaku, everyone has worked overtime today and has worked hard. I will give everyone two months' salary as a bonus. In addition, for the civilian ninjas, I will choose a suitable ninjutsu from the family's ninjutsu library and give it to each of them."

"Two months? Isn't that a bit too much?" Fugaku hesitated. Although Uchiha Dohuan got back 15 billion in one go last time, he couldn't squander it like that.

"The people under us follow us just to have enough food, but I want to fill their cheeks full!" Uchiha Douhuan said, "Besides, money is something that I can get more at any time if I can get it the first time." "Okay." Uchiha Fugaku nodded.

……

"Security Department! Release them!" Nearly 2000 villagers gathered in front of the security department and shouted deafening slogans.

Uchiha Zaito, with nearly 60 team members, set up a cordon, and formed a human wall in front of the security department with batons in hand.

The two groups were facing each other, and the situation looked very tense.

After obtaining permission from Uchiha Dohuan, Shisui immediately rushed to the front line of the confrontation.

"Everyone, please calm down and go back first. Don't gather in front of the security department." Shisui said sincerely to the few people holding banners standing at the front of the villagers.

"You, the Security Department, dare to arrest people at will. Do you think you have the right to do so? I'm telling you, if you don't release them today, we won't leave!"

"That's right! Let them go! Let them go!" The gathered villagers kept shouting, as if they would not give up unless the security department released them today.

"Everyone, our security department just brought them back for investigation..." Shisui wanted to explain, but before he could finish his words, several rotten vegetable leaves were thrown on his head.

"Don't listen to their explanations! Those arrested are all innocent! I think the security department is just trying to protect the village's murderer! They're bullying us unarmed civilians."

"Yes! That's right! Damn Security Department! Let them go!"

The next moment, a torrent of rotten eggs and vegetable leaves came flying towards Shisui. With Shisui's skills, he could easily dodge these things, but at this moment, he was stunned. He didn't understand why this happened. The Security Department was obviously just protecting the reputation of the village heroes and maintaining the will of fire.

Fortunately, at this time, Uchiha Zaidou took action and pulled Shisui back to the cordon. He glared at the guy and said impatiently: "Why are you causing trouble here?"

Fortunately, although these villagers were quite emotional, they still had basic rationality. Although they were making a lot of noise, no one dared to break the cordon set up by the security department.

"Xiu Ming, go back quickly and report to Vice Captain Dou Huan what happened here." Uchiha Zaidou glanced at the deeply shocked Shisui and ordered his subordinates.

……

After returning to the temporary office in the prison, Uchiha Douhuan looked solemn after hearing Sakurai Hideaki's report.

This made the six captains in the office dare not speak for the time being.

After a moment, Uchiha Douhuan said with a gloomy face: "The Security Department is the elite force of our village, and Shisui is an elite jonin among us, but these villagers are not even afraid of ninjas. They are no longer ordinary villagers."

"They are all thugs! Thugs! Looks like we have to strike hard!" Uchiha Douhuan clenched his fist and waved it in the air. "Everyone, except for the most basic interrogators, all other security personnel, gather in the conference room!"
