The Fifth Leaf Village

Inuzuka Feng's words made everyone frown.

"However, we shouldn't suffer any loss if we cooperate with him." Inuzuka Feng said, and then briefly recounted to the other three what happened in Orochimaru's base that day.

"So that's how it is. The patriarch of this generation of the Uchiha clan is quite a character." Inuzuka Bones said at this time.

"So, do we have to fully cooperate with the Uchiha?" Inuzuka Retsu, the last senior ninja present, asked at this time.

"It's not that serious." Inuzuka Jaw reached out and picked up the invitation on the table. "This Clan Leader Dou Huan sent this invitation in the name of the Security Department. It gives our clan the freedom to choose. Rei, from the clan's newest batch of adult ninja dogs, we will select the twenty most capable ones and send them to the Security Department as a gift from the Inuzuka clan."

"Not enough." At this time, Inuzuka Bones suddenly said, "In addition to these, select a few dog trainers and talented ninja dog users from the clan and have them join the security team. If possible, ask the Uchiha for a few more security department positions every year."

After hearing what Inuzuka Bones said, Inuzuka Jaw was a little surprised: "Great Elder, if that's the case, then in the eyes of others, our Inuzuka clan is equivalent to completely turning to the Uchiha clan."

"Since Chief Douhuan is so sincere, we might as well show the sincerity of our Inuzuka clan." Inuzuka Bones said.

"This... Elder, isn't this a bit too hasty?" Inuzuka Jaguar was a little hesitant. He didn't know why the elder who always reminded him to be cautious would go against his usual habit and make such a radical proposal today.

"Jaw, do you know why I've repeatedly reminded you, as clan leader, to be cautious in every choice you make?" At this moment, Inuzuka Bones looked at Inuzuka Jaw. "While our Inuzuka clan has had a family tradition dating back to the Warring States Period, we're ultimately just a small family that has mastered the secrets of taming ninja dogs. We can't compare to those bloodline families that are naturally gifted with powerful fighting abilities. Only by being cautious can we build a family fortune and give our family the capital to take a gamble when opportunities arise."

"381 years ago, in response to the invitation of the Senju clan, our ancestors at that time joined with their entire families, which led to the establishment of the Inuzuka clan today. Now, new opportunities are before us," said Inuzuka Bones.

"Are you so optimistic about the new head of the Uchiha clan?" Inuzuka Retsu asked at this time.

"Just think of this as the intuition of an old man like me who lived through the Warring States Period," Inuzuka Bones said with a smile, then looked at Inuzuka Feng: "Feng, what's your opinion?"

"Following this Chief Dou Huan? That's not a bad idea." Inuzuka Feng said with a smile, "Our clan has been on the fringes of the village for a long time. We are all a family of esoteric arts. If Zhu Lu Chou can get to where he is today, we might as well fight for it."

During the new book period, please read it every day. This is really important for this book.

In addition, the book club number is 147262843, everyone can come and play.

Chapter 39 The Inuzuka Clan! Loyalty!

The next day, Uchiha Douhuan went to the security department to arrange some work. When the time agreed on the visiting card was approaching, he took the gifts and went out to the direction of the Inuzuka clan.

The Inuzuka clan has made preparations in their territory at this moment. It must be said that the cohesion of the Inuzuka clan is still very strong. After the clan leaders made the decision to go all in on the Uchiha clan last night, the entire clan started working early in the morning to prepare for Uchiha Dohuan's arrival.

In front of the gate of the Inuzuka clan's territory, the road is paved with yellow earth and the street is splashed with clear water.

When Uchiha Douhuan arrived, the three senior ninjas of the Inuzuka clan, including the clan leader, and their chief elder were all waiting at the gate of the Inuzuka clan's territory.

This scene almost gave Uchiha Touhan the feeling of déjà vu of a leader's inspection in his previous life, except that there were two banners hanging on the gate of the Inuzuka clan.

Seeing this, Uchiha Douhuan also understood the attitude of the Inuzuka clan. It seems that the Inuzuka family has been long enough as a marginal ninja clan in the village and now wants to make progress.

After seeing Uchiha Dohuan arriving, Inuzuka Jape immediately led the other three to greet him.

Seeing this, Uchiha Douhuan smiled and said, "I'm sorry for the inconvenience of coming here and causing trouble for you all."

"That's not the case, Chief Uchiha. It's an honor for our Inuzuka clan to have you visit us." Inuzuka Jaw said with a smile.

Uchiha Douhuan shook hands with several people one after another. When it was Inuzuka Feng's turn, he shook hands with Uchiha Douhuan and laughed, "During my previous mission, I was treated to your hospitality by Clan Leader Douhuan. Now that you are with our Inuzuka Clan, please give me another chance to express my gratitude."

"Patriarch Douhuan, please."

The group welcomed Uchiha Douhuan into the clan's reception room. Not long after they sat down, a maid served tea to everyone.

Inuzuka Jaw, who was sitting at the main seat, asked, "I wonder why the Uchiha clan leader is visiting today?"

"It's like this. The Security Department recently recruited a group of new recruits. Their strength is acceptable, and they train very hard every day. However, they don't have our Sharingan after all, so they are still unable to catch criminals and search for contraband. In addition, during the last mission, Brother Feng mentioned that the nobles were planning to sell a batch of ninja dogs to the Security Department. So, the Security Department plans to order a batch of trained ninja dogs from the nobles."

"The Security Department is an important force in maintaining peace and security within the village. We, the Inuzuka clan, are also part of the village. If the Security Department needs us, we, the Inuzuka clan, will certainly provide our full assistance. There's no need to talk about placing an order." Inuzuka Jaw waved his hand and said, "Tomorrow, we, the Inuzuka clan, will select a group of outstanding adult ninja dogs from our clan and personally deliver them to the Security Department."

"If that's the case, then it couldn't be better." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile, "Please rest assured, Inuzuka clan leader, after these ninja dogs join the security department, they will enjoy the internal system of police dogs. The security department will provide each police dog with a monthly allowance of 30,000 ryo in the form of food. At the same time, the security department will also ensure that every penny of the food allowance is put into the mouths of each police dog."

"Thirty thousand ryo?" Inuzuka Retsu at the side was stunned when he heard this. You know, when their Inuzuka family trained ninja dogs, only those ninja dogs who signed a one-on-one spiritual contract with the clan members since childhood and were able to learn the secret techniques of the Inuzuka clan and were truly regarded as the dogs of inheritance had this treatment. And now the Uchiha clan also gave this treatment to ordinary ninja dogs. To be honest, with a monthly pure food allowance of thirty thousand, it is estimated that some of the clan's Chunin and Special Jonin would be willing to serve as police dogs themselves.

"It seems that Patriarch Douhuan is also a dog lover." At this time, Inuzuka Bones smiled, "I was originally worried that the family's ninja dogs would not be well taken care of in the security department. Now it seems that I was worrying too much."

"However, is there anyone in the security department who can take good care of these ninja dogs?" Inuzuka Feng said at this time, "Chief Dou Huan, taking care of ninja dogs is not as easy as taking care of the pet dogs in the hands of those nobles."

"That's true. Most of my clansmen can take care of cats, but taking care of a dog, especially an elite ninja dog, is probably beyond their ability," Uchiha Douhuan said, looking at Inuzuka Jaw. "I wonder if the Inuzuka clan leader could lend a hand?"

"What does Patriarch Douhuan mean by this?" Inuzuka Jaguar asked pretending to be confused.

Although the plan had been made long ago and the clan had already decided on the candidates to be sent to work in the Security Department, Inuzuka Jape was still pretending to be ignorant. He was waiting for Uchiha Dohuan to speak in person. After all, there was a big difference between the other party personally inviting someone and sending someone in on his own initiative.

Uchiha Douhuan also understood what the other party meant. The Inuzuka clan had shown enough sincerity in the welcoming ceremony today. The sound of yellow earth paving the way and clearing the street with water when entering the door was probably known to Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two old guys. The Inuzuka clan had made enough gestures, and Uchiha Douhuan did not mind giving the other party this face. After all, the Inuzuka clan was the first ninja clan willing to stand on their side. Even if it was a horse bone, Uchiha Douhuan would have to pay a fortune for it. What's more, they provided the technical personnel needed by the security department at this stage.

"It's like this. The Security Department plans to hire several professional dog trainers, veterinarians, and ninja dog masters from the nobles. After all, professional matters should be left to professionals, and looking at the entire ninja world, I can't think of anyone who is better at this than the Inuzuka clan." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile.

"As for compensation, dog trainers and veterinarians are considered technical personnel. The Security Department is willing to provide them with a monthly salary of 18 ryo, equivalent to that of a squad leader. As for ninja dog users, they will be assigned to combat ranks based on their abilities. According to the Security Department's current salary levels, a Chunin will receive 18 ryo per month, and a Special Jonin will receive 30 ryo per month."

Before Inuzuka Jaw could reply, Inuzuka Feng came closer.

"Clan leader Douhuan, where are the jonin?"

Even he was tempted by the price offered by Uchiha Douhuan. After all, as a Jonin, he could not earn 30 taels a month most of the time.

"Feng! Why are you here to join in the fun!" Inuzuka Jaw shouted.

"Haha, Brother Feng is still like this." Uchiha Douhuan smiled nonchalantly, "For a jonin, the basic salary is 40 ryo. Counting mission allowances and the like, it's not a problem to get 60 ryo per month. I still trust Brother Feng's ability."

"Ahem." Inuzuka Bones suddenly coughed, "Clan leader Dou Huan, let's get down to business. The Inuzuka clan is willing to cooperate with the Security Department. We will be able to send the ninja dogs they need this afternoon. At the same time, the clan members who are going to work at the Security Department will also go to work tomorrow."

"That's not urgent," Uchiha Douhuan said. "The Inuzuka clan is willing to contribute to Konoha's security environment. Naturally, our Security Department must also show some appreciation. As for what that appreciation is, we will know tomorrow when the nobles deliver their ninja dogs to the Security Department."

"From now on, the Inuzuka clan will have to trouble the Uchiha clan leader to take care of it." Inuzuka Jaw said.

"Eh? No way, it's all for Konoha, for the Will of Fire!" Uchiha Dohuan waved his hand and laughed.

……

Chapter 40 The Oil Girl Clan is Numb

The next day, when Inuzuka Feng brought seven clan members and 7 ninja dogs to the security department, he was also shocked by the noise at the entrance of the security department.

The Security Department, which usually exudes an atmosphere of keeping strangers away, is now decorated with lights and colorful decorations. At the entrance of the Security Department, a huge red banner is hung above the Security Department signboard, which reads:

Donation ceremony for police dogs of Konoha Guard and establishment ceremony of the Inuzuka clan special police dog breeding base of the Guard.

At the gate of the Security Department, Uchiha Dohuan and Uchiha Fugaku were waiting under the banner in formal attire. Beside them, dozens of Security Department members who had no tasks at the moment stood upright.

This scene made Inuzuka Feng completely confused. He originally thought of just sending the police dogs trained by his family and a few promising juniors over, and by the way, getting a position in the security department himself. However, the commotion caused by the security department made him unable to help but look down at the most common ninja tactical vest in Konoha that he was wearing.

The other members of the Inuzuka clan suddenly felt that they were not dressed formally enough.

However, at this time, Uchiha Douhuan and Uchiha Fugaku, who had already seen the group, led their men forward.

"Brother Feng, we've been waiting for you all for a long time." Uchiha Douhuan shook Inuzuka Feng's hand warmly and said. Then, Uchiha Douhuan came to the Inuzuka clan members who came with Inuzuka Feng, shook hands with them one by one and said, "Welcome everyone from the Inuzuka clan to join the big family of the Security Department."

"Inahori, take all your colleagues to change clothes." After shaking hands and greeting each other, Uchiha Douhuan turned around and gave instructions.

"Yes!" Uchiha Inahiro nodded, then came to Inuzuka Feng and the others and reminded them, "Everyone, please follow me."

Eight people and twenty dogs, under the guidance of Uchiha Inahiri, entered the Security Department. Not long after, when they came out, they changed into clothes. Inuzuka Feng even put on the captain-level special ninja vest of the Security Department, and the twenty ninja dogs were fully armed.

After changing clothes, Uchiha Inahori led everyone to the banner, where Uchiha Douhuan was already waiting.

After everyone arrived, Uchiha Douhuan personally put the security department's code on the eight newly joined Inuzuka clan members, and then put special police dog number tags on the twenty police dogs. Inuzuka Fu's partner Momaru was even given the special number 00001.

"On behalf of all my colleagues in the Security Department, I welcome the ninjas of the Inuzuka clan and their ninja dog companions to join us." After doing all this, Uchiha Douhuan announced loudly.

Then, under the camera, the scene of Uchiha Dohuan and Inuzuka Feng smiling and shaking hands was recorded forever.

……

The Konoha Hokage's office and all the major ninja clans soon learned what happened at the entrance of the security department.

Among them, the top leaders of the Aburame clan were even more panicked. As one of the two clans that received Uchiha Touhan's visiting card that night, unlike the Inuzuka clan who quickly made a decision and completely turned to the Uchiha clan, the Aburame clan was more terrified when facing Uchiha Touhan's visiting card.

After all, not long ago, the Security Department sent Ryoma Aburame's body. The visiting card sent by Uchiha Dohuan at this time in his personal capacity seemed to be a bad intention.

Although strictly speaking, the Aburame clan can be considered victims in this matter. Aburame Ryoma was forcibly taken to the Root by Danzo at a very young age using almost blackmail methods, and has rarely had contact with them over the years.

However, when Aburame Ryoma used the family's secret technique to help Danzo deal with some dirty work, he naturally offended many people. Aburame Ryoma was also different from another general under Danzo, Yamanaka Fuu. The Aburame clan's secret technique of controlling insects was too obvious. The families that were disgusted by Danzo did not dare to confront Danzo openly, and naturally they would more or less bear a grudge against the Aburame clan.

Therefore, the Aburame clan has been keeping a low profile in Konoha over the years.

And now, a ruthless person suddenly appeared in Uchiha and killed Danzo directly. That's not all. The Shimura clan, as a ninja clan that has developed extremely rapidly in the village in recent decades, although its development speed is not as fast as the three families of Utatane, Mitomon, and Sarutobi, but after the third generation came to power, its scale has also developed from an ordinary summoning family to a level that is catching up with the former Warring States clan. But now, their clan leader has been arrested by Uchiha and taken to the Security Department, and until now, no one knows whether he is dead or alive.

What made them even more uneasy was that the body of Ryoma Aburame, which was thrown directly at the gate of the Aburame clan by the Security Department, was fatally wounded by the iconic wound caused by the ninja sword Kirei, which was called the Bloodless Blade and was feared by the people of the Hidden Mist Village. The blade that pierced the heart was black and smooth, without a trace of blood.

This means that the cause of Aburame Ryoma's death was probably the assassination attempt on Uchiha Touhan, and Uchiha Touhan had ready-made reasons to attack the Aburame clan.

But now, the Aburame clan has no choice but to wait anxiously for Uchiha Douhuan to come.

Although the Aburame clan can barely be called a major ninja clan in the village, and has more jonin in the clan than the Inuzuka clan, they were helpless when facing Danzo, let alone the Uchiha clan, which is now more powerful than Danzo?

……

After finishing the welcoming ceremony, Uchiha Douhuan sat in the office until the end of the working day and left work on time.

When he got home, Sasuke was already there, eating the snacks Keiko had prepared for him in the dining room.

"Teacher, you're back." When little Sasuke heard Uchiha Dohuan coming in, he ran over with his short legs.

"Hey, Sasuke, you came quite early today." Uchiha Douhuan also said happily.

After two days of getting along, the master and disciple became familiar with each other. Sasuke was a very smart child. He could quickly memorize word for word what Uchiha Dohuan asked him to recite every day, and he could also understand the deep meaning of many of the words after Uchiha Dohuan explained them to him.

Soon, the master and apprentice began today's teaching in the study.

After Uchiha Dohuan finished explaining the meaning of the last sentence, "Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you," he finished explaining the booklet that Uchiha Dohuan had carefully selected from "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Classic" and "The Analects of Confucius" as Sasuke's enlightenment textbook.

"Okay, Sasuke, let's stop here today." Uchiha Douhuan closed the book and said to Sasuke.

"Yes." Sasuke nodded, "Teacher, what are we going to learn tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile, "You don't need to come starting tomorrow. The teacher has some things of his own to deal with."

"Huh?" Sasuke was stunned when he heard that, then he felt a little depressed, "Okay."

After spending these three days together, Sasuke really liked Uchiha Dohuan, the teacher who would tell him many interesting stories in class. Now that the teacher suddenly asked him not to come for the time being, he was a little reluctant.

"Sasuke, I have an assignment for you." Uchiha Douhuan patted Sasuke's head and smiled. "During this time, you must carefully understand what I teach you. Then, use the principles I teach you to observe the world. When you begin to feel that these principles cannot fully explain what is happening in the world, come to me again. Then, I will teach you something new."

If you think this book is good, please read it. It is really important to me.

In addition, regarding the issue of updates, please rest assured that there will be more updates as soon as the game is released.

Finally, salute to the gentlemen who are reading this!

Loyal! Sincerity!

Chapter 41: Oranges or Green Garlic (Part )

Since he has decided to accept Uchiha Sasuke as his disciple, Uchiha Douhuan will naturally teach him well.

Uchiha Dohuan chose Confucian classics as Sasuke's enlightenment books after careful consideration. First of all, Sasuke is not yet 7 years old this year, and his brother has a criminal record of thinking about all kinds of things since he was a child. Therefore, it is particularly important to establish a relatively simple moral concept first and let the child know which qualities are good and which are undesirable. In other words, it is to establish his face first.

And when Sasuke finds that this set of things is not enough to explain the world before him, he will naturally fall into confusion. That is when it is time to teach him the real things and fill the surface with substance.

In this era, the relationship between master and apprentice is no less than that between biological father and son. Since he has accepted Sasuke as his disciple, Sasuke will be qualified to inherit Uchiha Touhan's political resources in the future. Uchiha Touhan will naturally not train Sasuke to be a cynic who talks all kinds of nonsense.

After Sasuke left, Uchiha Douhuan also went out with Ji Lei.

Not long after, in the Aburame clan's territory, the current clan leader Aburame Shiwei also received information sent back by the reconnaissance bugs around the clan, and learned that Uchiha Dohuan was heading towards their clan's territory. For a moment, he felt like he was facing a great enemy and hurriedly summoned the clan's senior ninjas.

The Aburame clan's territory is even more remote than the area the Uchiha clan moved to after the Nine-Tails Rebellion. Uchiha Dohuan, with a Thunderbolt slung over his waist, walked slowly on a small road where there were no streetlights and which could only be vaguely seen in the moonlight.

The tiny chakra fluctuations in the surrounding bushes naturally could not be hidden from Uchiha Douhuan's eyes, but he didn't care much.

Not long after, Uchiha Douhuan arrived at the gate of the Aburame clan's territory and said warmly to the genin guarding the gate who was wearing the Aburame clan's signature sunglasses, "Please go in and announce that Uchiha Douhuan is here to visit."

"Yes, please wait a moment." The Genin guarding the clan gate nodded, then turned and entered the clan territory.

Uchiha Douhuan waited patiently, and soon, Aburame Zhiwei came to greet him personally with two senior ninjas from the clan.

"I'm sorry to have kept the Uchiha clan waiting for so long," Aburame Shiwei bowed as she left the room.

"There's no need to say that, Chief Aburame. I'm the one who's disturbing you by coming so late." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile, "Also, Chief Aburame, there's no need to be so polite. Today, I'm just visiting you as a personal matter."

"Chief Dou Huan, please come in." Arusha Zhiwei extended her hand to invite.

After Uchiha Douhuan followed a few people into the Aburame clan's territory, he came to the reception room. He looked up and saw that the Aburame clan's situation in recent years was not very good. Even the reception room, which served as the family's facade, looked a bit simple.

"My clan is simple and cannot compare with the Uchiha clan. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Clan Leader Dou Huan." Aburame Zhiwei said.

After they sat down, Aburame Zhiwei waved to the maid to bring tea. After chatting for a while, Aburame Zhiwei asked, "I wonder what brings you here so late at night, Chief Dou Huan?"

"Clan leader Aburame, our security department, entrusted by the Sandaime-sama, has been investigating the village traitor Danzo Shimura and his criminal gang, and we've made some breakthroughs recently," Uchiha Douhuan said. "However, Danzo Shimura has been a scourge within the village for many years, and his influence is deeply entrenched. The investigation inevitably involves some of the village's ninja clans. Out of concern for the village's stability, the Sandaime-sama has repeatedly urged our security department to exercise extreme caution in handling this matter." Uchiha Douhuan added, "That's why I'm here."
