Naruto: Starting with the power of two systems

So he wasn't afraid to come here at all.

As the Hokage, he felt he should come and see his son who had committed a crime. He also wanted to know how the Uchiha clan would deal with his son and why his son would impulsively attack a member of the Uchiha clan.

This is really too strange. Even if Sarutobi Asuma is impulsive, he still has some brains.

Chapter 86 Sentenced to 10 Years

Upon seeing the newcomer, Fugaku Uchiha quickly stepped forward and inquired.

"I wonder what brings the Hokage here."

In fact, he knew perfectly well that the other party had come because of Asuma's matter.

The Third Hokage didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"What are your plans for dealing with Asma?"

Fugaku knows the future, so he is now full of confidence. The frustration he felt when he was bullied by the clan leader is gone.

He said calmly.

"According to the regulations of the Uchiha Guard, attempted murder, endangering public safety, and harming villagers should result in at least 10 years in prison."

The Third Hokage was very unhappy to hear about this punishment.

Seriously? They're going to lock him up for 10 years?

"Clan Chief Fugaku, isn't this a bit too heavy?"

Ten years—that was the most crucial period of Asma's life.

This period is a golden time not only to improve one's own strength but also one's personal qualities.

If Asma had been imprisoned for that long, he would probably have been ruined.

By the time he comes out, he will probably be completely out of touch with society.

Fugaku said calmly.

“I think this punishment is too lenient. Although my clansman Uchiha Ryosuke was not injured, we can’t wait until someone dies before we deal with him seriously. Moreover, Asuma caused serious damage to the streets and houses and injured many people. If he is not severely punished, I’m afraid we won’t be able to explain it to the villagers.”

The Third Hokage secretly rejoiced that no one was injured, and relaxed slightly.

Otherwise, even the Third Hokage would probably be too embarrassed to speak here.

“I will compensate Asuma for all the damages suffered by the villagers. As for Ryosuke, if he was not injured, I will also compensate him. Could you reduce the punishment a little more?”

"After all, Asuma still has to go to the Daimyo's residence to serve as the Daimyo's guard."

Fugaku looked at the Third Hokage and said with a smile.

"Since the Hokage is willing to compensate for the losses, that's good. I can then consider reducing the sentence."

"Then let's reduce it by one year, so it'll be nine years in prison."

Yashiro, standing to the side, was secretly amused.

Is there any difference between 9 years and 10 years? They are both the same length of time.

The Third Hokage looked displeased; he had only been given a year's reduction.

The other party didn't want to let Asuma go, nor did they want to give him, the Hokage, any face.

"By the time it takes nine years to come out, we've already missed the window for development," I couldn't help but say.

"Chief Fugaku, it's still too long."

"This treatment is extremely unfair. As the Hokage, I want to take my son back to deal with this."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku's expression turned cold.

"Does the Hokage intend to interfere in the internal affairs of our Uchiha Police Force?"

"Our rights were granted by the Second Hokage. We hope the Third Hokage will respect the will of our predecessors and not interfere with the affairs of our Uchiha Guard."

The Third Hokage was also a little angry when he heard what the other party said. They actually used his dead teacher to pressure him. What a despicable clan.

Now he feels that it was wrong of the teacher to give the Uchiha clan's guards the authority.

"Sigh, it's all because his son is too reckless, always causing him trouble. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't be so frustrated," he couldn't help but say.

"Actually, if the punishment could be reduced further, it wouldn't be impossible to restore the Uchiha clan's previous treatment."

Fugaku and Yatsushiro's expressions changed; they were somewhat pleasantly surprised.

Previously, the Uchiha clan received very good treatment, but after the Nine-Tails' Nightfall, not only was the clan's territory forced to relocate, but the salaries of the Uchiha clan's guards were also reduced.

Although the Uchiha clan has other sources of income, the rewards paid by Konoha Village are also an important source of income.

With salaries reduced, more and more clansmen are becoming resentful of the Konoha leadership, as this directly affects their livelihoods.

If the previous salary could be restored, then the lives of the clan members could return to normal, which would be a satisfactory explanation to the clan members, and I believe Ryosuke would not object.

Fugaku spoke up. "Since the Hokage has said so, let's reduce it. Since Ryosuke wasn't hurt."

"Furthermore, if the Hokage is willing to compensate those people for their medical expenses, then I will decide to sentence him to one year. Punishment is necessary."

"Otherwise, our Uchiha clan will not be able to explain to the villagers, and I'm sure the Third Hokage will also be unable to explain to the villagers and ninjas."

The Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the verdict.

A year is neither a long nor a short time.

And indeed, as the other party said, Asuma has really run into a big problem this time, and the impact is extremely bad.

It's time to teach him a lesson.

Even if he could offer better conditions, he couldn't go too far, otherwise the villagers would all know that it was he, the Third Hokage, who made the Uchiha clan so biased towards Asuma.

If the Uchiha clan were to spread this further, it would truly damage his reputation. This was the other party's bottom line, and it was also his own.

The Third Hokage looked at the other person.

"I can accept this result. Can you take me to see Asma?"

Fugaku quickly replied when he heard that the Hokage had agreed to his conditions.

"of course can."

"Inahime, take the Hokage to see Asuma."

The Third Hokage followed Inahi to the temporary prison in the guard building.

He felt extremely helpless and angry along the way. It seemed that his education had really failed. How could Asuma suddenly do such a thing?

We need to ask more clearly.

After walking down a long corridor, they arrived at a temporary prison room and saw their son, whose face and clothes still had some bloodstains.

The fire of anger in my heart subsided somewhat, and my heart softened.

Dao Huo tactfully left, showing no interest in the conversation between the father and son.

They've already imprisoned someone's son, so don't expect them to be nice to you.

After Inahisa left, the Third Hokage looked at his son.

"Give me an explanation. Why did you act so rashly?"

Asma raised his head and said angrily.

"That bastard Ryosuke Uchiha stole my woman, Kurenai Yuhi."

"Do you think I should kill him?"

"It's just a pity that I'm no match for him."

Asuma felt a burning hatred for Uchiha Ryosuke.

The Third Hokage's face was extremely grim. So that was the reason why the other party had done such a thing.

Unable to contain himself, his expression turned even more unpleasant.

"Are you really going to make such a big mistake just because of a woman? You're being incredibly foolish."

"Once you're strong enough, what kind of woman can't you have?"

His former wife, Sarutobi Biwako.

He died protecting Kushina during the Nine-Tails Night, killed by the man in black.

Chapter 87 Trading

Even after his beloved wife was murdered, he was not angry enough to kill the suspected Uchiha clan members.

Instead, they calmly used this opportunity to suppress the power of the Uchiha clan.

Otherwise, if the village had fought another major battle with the Uchiha clan after the Nine-Tails' attack, Konoha would probably have been finished.

His father is so powerful, how come Asma is so reckless?

Perhaps it was his wife's death that left Asma without anyone to educate him.

As the Third Hokage, he had to spend a lot of time handling village affairs and maintain a firm grip on power.

He was negligent, but he really didn't have much time to educate Asma.

Asma was even more furious upon hearing his father's words and questioned him.
