To pay off the debt, become Hokage!

"Chonghua, this is today's work record."

Uchiha Mikoto handed the records to Uchiha Shigeka.

Uchiha Shigeka took it and started reading it.

On it are details of Uchiha Muneyuki's work in the Konoha Police Department and the Konoha Court.

Uchiha Shigeka is currently on vacation, and all the work at hand has been handed over to Uchiha Muneyuki to handle.

When Uchiha Shigeka was working, he would report the case records he handled every day to Sarutobi Hiruzen. Now Uchiha Muneyuki followed suit and also reported the details of his daily work to Uchiha Shigeka.

Uchiha Shigeka's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at the work records in his hand and thought they were interesting.

——Uchiha Muneyuki did not make another copy for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The meaning behind this is quite intriguing.

After reading the work records, Uchiha Shigeka nodded with satisfaction: "I trust Uncle Soxing to do the work, Mikoto, please hand this record to the Hokage."

Uchiha Mikoto nodded: "I'll go now."

Uchiha Shigeka waved his hand and said, "No hurry."

Uchiha Shigeka grabbed Uchiha Mikoto's hand and took her to a pavilion in the courtyard to sit down.

Uchiha Shigeka sat beside her, raised the tea on the stone table, and said with a smile: "It's still early, please have a cup of tea with me first."

After saying that, he took a sip of the tea in the cup to moisten his mouth.

Uchiha Mikoto looked at Uchiha Shigeka's leisurely appearance, hesitated for a moment, and said worriedly: "Shigeka, did something happen between you and the Hokage that day?"

"From that day on, you will start your vacation, and Uncle Zongxing will take over your management duties..."

Uchiha Shigeka smiled and said, "Mikoto, you think too much. The affairs are very busy, and the Hokage-sama just saw that I was under too much pressure from work, so he gave me a day off so that I could have a good rest."

"This is the Hokage's kindness, Mikoto, nothing happened between us."

Uchiha Mikoto looked worried: "But you've been resting for almost three months."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Shigeka said with a smile, "Why, Mikoto, wouldn't it be better for you to take a few more days off? Do you really want me to immerse myself in the files?"

"No, that's not what I meant."

Uchiha Mikoto sighed and said, "Maybe I'm just thinking too much. Some people in the police department said that you are being targeted by the Hokage."

Uchiha Shigeka raised his eyebrows and put down the teacup.

"Mikoto, tell me what happened here in detail."

......

Chapter 217: The Deadly Extremists

Uchiha Shigeka watched Uchiha Mikoto leave, thoughtfully.

It seems that since he has been staying at home for nearly three months, some people in the Konoha Police Force have become concerned.

Of course, three months is not a long time.

In just this short period of time, some rumors and conspiracy theories were spread, saying that Sarutobi Hiruzen disliked Uchiha Shigeka and said he was giving him a vacation, but in fact he was demoted and suppressed; and that the actual controller of the Konoha Police Force and the Konoha Court is Uchiha Muneyuki, who is in name only but actually has the power.

Uchiha Shigeka's ink-black eyes were filled with a cold light, and he sneered.

"Someone is making trouble, but what's the point of doing this?"

It's not like he was really disliked by Sarutobi Hiruzen. Uchiha Muneyuki was really taking care of him - Uchiha Shigeka had to review all the detailed records of Uncle Muneyuki's work every day.

The ease with which he was able to crush this rumor was incredibly crude.

Uchiha Shigeka really wanted to know which group was causing such incompetent trouble.

"Pingren, go check who is contacting members of the police force privately."

Uchiha Shigeka called Uchiha Hirato and told him some of the situation.

Uchiha Hirato was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said: "Clan leader, I know something about this matter, there is no need to investigate."

"Oh?"

Uchiha Shigeka calmly said to Uchiha Hirato: "Since you know something, why didn't you tell me? This happened a while ago, right? So I'm the last person to know?"

Uchiha Shigeka's voice was flat and without any ups and downs, but Uchiha Hirato felt a sense of uneasiness and fear in his heart.

A vague pressure surrounded Uchiha Hirato, his throat rolled and he kept swallowing.

Uchiha Hirato's palms were sweating and his body was shaking unconsciously.

Uchiha Hirato said quickly: "Chief, it was my fault for neglecting it. I thought it was just a small matter, and I thought I would report it after completing the investigation..."

"Small matter?" Uchiha Shigeka lifted his eyelids, his dark eyes filled with coldness: "When it comes to me, there is no small matter. No matter how big or small the incident is, I must know it first!"

"Ping Ren, forget it this time. I don't want it to happen again."

"......Yes."

Uchiha Hirato said yes with difficulty.

As soon as he finished speaking, the pressure around him suddenly disappeared, and Uchiha Hirato breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, Pingren, tell me what you learned."

Uchiha Shigeka's mouth corners curled up, his face was gentle and his tone was kind.

The usually enthusiastic and gentle Uchiha Shigeka is back, but Uchiha Hirato dare not neglect him.

Uchiha Hirato, who was originally from the Traveling Taiwan faction and later defected to the Clan Leader faction, knew that Uchiha Shigeka had a kind personality and was praised by everyone.

But those people didn't know how terrifying Uchiha Shigeka would be when he was angry and dissatisfied. They were sweating profusely and dared not even breathe.

That oppressive force...is unbearable.

Uchiha Hirato saw the smiling Uchiha Shigeka, sweat dripping down his forehead. He swallowed and began to report: "The rumors about the clan leader first appeared last week. At first we didn't pay much attention to it."

"They believe that the clan leader has been on vacation for too long, and many tasks cannot be further progressed, resulting in a large backlog - after all, the deputy clan leader is in charge on an acting basis, and does not have the final say on many matters."

Uchiha Shigeka listened to what Uchiha Hirato said.

Uchiha Hirato continued, "The clan leader is on vacation at home, and although he can solve some of the backlog of work, it is still inefficient."

"At this time, some people who were dissatisfied with the multiplied and endless work began to complain, reminiscing about the time when the clan leader did not take a vacation, and asked when the clan leader would come back, and... why did the Hokage agree to let the clan leader take a vacation."

Uchiha Shigeka blinked, somewhat speechless: "How did these rumors develop from just a few complaints and dissatisfaction? Hirato, just tell me which force is fanning the flames behind the scenes."

This kind of complaint is nothing more than a grumble, which will pass after being said for a while. However, it can develop into gossip and spread to a certain extent. It has not dissipated even after a week. There must be someone who is fanning the flames.

Uchiha Shigeka sneered in his heart, feeling that the person behind the scenes wanted to replicate the public opinion war that Hatake Sakumo had waged a few months ago.

But his approach was really poor, he just fought randomly, and his level was far worse than that of Danzo Shimura.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Hirato said directly: "They are extremists."

"Extremists?" Uchiha Shigeka raised his eyebrows: "That's not surprising, that's not surprising...it turns out they are the ones behind this."

No wonder the technique is so crude, it's really useless.

There are many people or forces in Konoha who are hostile to Uchiha Shigeka and have power and interest conflicts. After all, he is in charge of Konoha's judicial department and is famous in Konoha for enforcing the law impartially and not colluding with corrupt officials.

This style of doing things has offended many people.

There are many stupid and dull people among them. To be honest, after thinking about it, Uchiha Shigeka still couldn't figure out who was the one who caused such a terrible incident.

As it turned out, it was the Uchiha extremists who had long been hiding in the dark and silent.

Uchiha Shigeka looked serious, stared at Uchiha Hirato and said, "Are you sure? Hirato."

Uchiha Hirato nodded heavily: "Patriarch, it is certain that they are the extremists."

"What about the people from the Fugaku faction? Didn't they participate?"

"No one found them involved." Uchiha Hirato said, "Chief, the Fugaku faction is very quiet. The extremists have approached Senior Kawazo and Fugaku, but they refused."

Uchiha Shigeka secretly thought it was a pity. If the Fugaku faction was involved, he could use this incident to catch them all in one fell swoop.

But...it would be fine if we could deal with the extremists.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkey, knocking the mountain to frighten the tiger, since the Fugaku Sect is so quiet, let it continue to be quiet and do its own duty!

Uchiha Shigeka's eyes were cold, and his eyebrows were tinged with a hint of murderousness.

"Now that we have determined who slandered and sowed discord between me and the Hokage-sama... Hirato, go inform Uncle Taidai that this time, I will eradicate the extremists completely!"

"The Uchiha clan doesn't need extremists!"

Uchiha Hirato was shocked and nodded in agreement.

......

Extremists are an absolute minority in the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Shigeka controls most of the power of the Uchiha clan, and the extremists have no ability to resist.

The family court within the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Shigeka walked in leisurely and saw Uchiha Tadao standing there waiting for him.

At the same time, Uchiha Shigeka could see that the extremists were standing there with dull eyes, obviously controlled by the Sharingan's illusion.

Uchiha Shigeka smiled kindly and said to Uchiha Tadai:

"Let the trial begin, Uncle Lutai."

......

Chapter 218: Fu Yue: Keep a low profile and wait for the right time

"The extremists were completely wiped out."

Uchiha Hezang frowned and spoke in a low voice, with no emotion to be heard.

Uchiha Fugaku's eyes were deep, with a hint of sarcasm flashing across them.

"Uncle Hezang, I told you when the extremists came to us for cooperation that now that Shigeka has perfected his control over the Uchiha clan, his power is much stronger than when he first took over the position of clan leader."

After a few years, the clan leader's faction has become the undisputed largest faction in the Uchiha clan.

As one grows, the other declines. Uchiha Shigeka's power has increased substantially. Correspondingly, people have gradually withdrawn from their factions - the extremist faction and the Fugaku faction - in recent years, and their momentum is not as strong as before.

He would never dare to explode in front of Uchiha Shigeka like he did before.

Uchiha Fugaku was afraid that Uchiha Shigeka would find an excuse to ban their faction and wipe out their remaining voice.

Uchiha Fugaku took a deep breath and said calmly: "Those extremists cannot see the current situation clearly. They rush to give Zhonghua an excuse. They are courting their own destruction. It is only right!"

"We are not in a good position, so we need to bide our time and hide in the dark."

——Waiting for Uchiha Shigeka to make a mistake.

Uchiha Fugaku firmly believes that being too close to the Konoha officials is not a good thing. One day, Uchiha Shigeka will face conflicts between the Uchiha and Konoha.

Uchiha is not Konoha, Konoha is not Uchiha. The positions of the clans and the government have always been good and bad.

Now the relationship between Uchiha Shigeka and Konoha officials is pretty good, and the two sides cooperate happily with each other, but what if the relationship deteriorates one day?

What choice will Uchiha Shigeka make then?

Judging from Uchiha Fugaku's understanding of Uchiha Shigeka, it is certain that he will favor Konoha.

In other words, Uchiha Shigeka will definitely choose to sell out the family's interests and make concessions to the Konoha officials at that time.

And this is a situation that Uchiha Fugaku never wants to see!

Now that the extremists have been eradicated, the only remaining faction is the Fugaku faction.

We must not let Uchiha Shigeka catch us!

“Uncle He Zang, it seems that as long as we don’t give Chonghua an excuse, he won’t cause us any trouble.”

Uchiha Hezang nodded and said, "After all, he is the one who enforces the law impartially and brings justice to everyone. Causing trouble for no reason will damage his reputation."

"...I don't see any justice in Taiwan's verdict on extremists."

The extremists were merely spreading some rumors, but they were expelled from the faction and sentenced to ten years in prison...

Uchiha Hezang glanced at Uchiha Fugaku and said meaningfully: "That's Taidai, not Chonghua. Isn't it true that all the internal affairs of the family are given to Taidai to handle?"

Once you say something, it's not easy to take it back.

Uchiha Shigeka couldn't question Uchiha Tadao's decision.
