To pay off the debt, become Hokage!

——I have Shigeka, the Uchiha clan is not out of control!

Sarutobi Hiruzen watched with a smile as Uchiha Shigeka filled out the form, then took out the Hokage seal and stamped it.

thump.

[Congratulations to the host for becoming a jonin. The last chance to draw a card under the loan mechanism has been obtained. Host, do you want to draw a card? ]

The system's voice sounded at the right time. Uchiha Shigeka took a deep breath and put it aside for the time being.

Now is not a good time to draw cards.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stuffed the form into Uchiha Shigeka's ninja file and put it aside solemnly.

"The youngest jonin, if this news gets out, it will cause a sensation throughout Konoha."

After Uchiha Shigeka was excited, he felt a little embarrassed and said, "It's all because of the Hokage's praise. I don't know how everyone will view me."

"Your strength and achievements are not fake, Shigeka. You are worthy of being a jonin."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "Just accept it. You are a jonin recognized by the Hokage!"

Uchiha Shigeka nodded, but he was still a little worried and fearful.

This look caught Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, making him even more satisfied and relieved.

Be neither arrogant nor impatient, and be cautious.

What a good boy he is, and a good boy of the Uchiha clan with him as the leader.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but smile.

He coughed and changed the subject: "Chonghua, how are you and Zongxing getting along?"

"Uncle Zongxing?" Uchiha Shigeka blinked and said, "Uncle Zongxing took good care of me. He taught me a lot of experience and knowledge on the battlefield. I benefited a lot from him."

"You two should get closer and communicate more often. He, like you, has a dream of becoming Hokage."

"This is the first time I've heard of this." Uchiha Shigeka was surprised, and then showed an agreeable and friendly look.

"It turns out that Uncle Zong Xing and I have the same dream, but Uncle Zong Xing never told me about it."

Seeing Uchiha Shigeka's expression of having found a comrade, Sarutobi Hiruzen said with emotion: "It would be great if there were more people like you."

Uchiha Shigeka understood the meaning of the song and showed shame on his face: "There are many people in the Uchiha clan... who have a bad opinion of Hokage."

"Sorry, Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head: "This is not your fault, they just can't see clearly at the moment. With you, Muneyuki and the others, I believe that sooner or later, the Uchiha clan will be integrated into the big family of Konoha."

"...I will try my best to change the clan members' views on Hokage-sama!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen patted Uchiha Shigeka's shoulder and said, "Good boy, it's good that you have this intention. Go back and have a rest."

"In addition to recruiting you back to be promoted to jonin, I am also giving you a week's vacation."

Uchiha Shigeka wanted to say something, but Sarutobi Hiruzen Kaito said, "We need to adjust the frontline troops next. There is no need to rush back to the front line."

"Go back and see your parents, let them see their good son who has made great contributions to Konoha." Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled: "And Kushina, you have been nagging me to go to the front line to find you these days."

"Her identity is special, so of course she can't be allowed to go to the front line, but you know Kushina's personality, I'm really afraid that she will sneak away to the front line."

The current Kushina is not capable of escaping the supervision of the Anbu.

Uchiha Shigeka complained in his heart, his eyes showed a touch of emotion, and said: "I will tell Kushina."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded in satisfaction.

......

After leaving the Hokage Building, Uchiha Shigeka had no plans to go home, nor did he immediately go to find Uzumaki Kushina.

He was carrying letters from his companions and spoils of war, so he had to get rid of those first.

dong dong.

"Hello, is anyone home?"

Uchiha Shigeka came to a door and knocked.

With a creak, the door was opened and a middle-aged woman looked at him in confusion.

"You are..." the middle-aged woman asked, while looking at the young man in front of her. Her face changed drastically when she discovered the family emblem on Uchiha Shigeka.

The middle-aged woman became panicked: "Uchiha!? What...what are you going to do? We haven't broken any laws! You can't arrest us!"

Uchiha Shigeka saw the middle-aged woman's body trembling and frowned in pain.

He knew that the Uchiha clan had a bad image in the eyes of the villagers of Konoha, but the clan emblem could make people tremble with fear...

Sister, you are overreacting.

......

Chapter 76: Kushina, I'm back

"Hey."

The Uchiha clan is not friendly when enforcing the law. They speak coldly and give orders, and if the other party resists, they will be beaten severely.

Hearing the screams of the prisoners and seeing the grim expressions of the Uchiha clan...

In order to force the prisoners to submit, the Uchiha clan not only resorted to lynching, but also used Sharingan illusions to control the prisoners.

What could be more effective in making a prisoner break through his psychological bottom line than an illusion that triggers his inner fear?

Some prisoners did not commit serious crimes and were released after only a few days in prison.

They told their experiences truthfully, and some even exaggerated their original experiences, describing the Konoha Police Force as a devil's den.

——There, you can see the most terrifying thing in your life!

After providing such a one-stop service, the Uchiha clan naturally became more and more feared in the eyes of outsiders.

The Uchiha clan knew what the Konoha villagers thought of them, but they did not care. Instead, they were proud of it.

They neither explained nor refuted the rumors.

The Uchiha clan should be feared!

Uchiha Shigeka sighed lightly and took out a letter from home from his luggage bag.

"You must be Xiaocang's mother, right? I am his captain, and this is his letter home."

Uchiha Shigeka handed the letter to the middle-aged woman and turned and left.

This made the middle-aged woman a little stunned. She glanced at the letter in her hand and quickly opened it to check.

Missing her son so much, the middle-aged woman's eyes turned red when she saw her son's letter. She wiped her tears and realized that she had misunderstood Uchiha Shigeka.

"Thank you."

The middle-aged woman whispered that she had overreacted.

......

Fortunately, not every family is as frightened as Ogura’s mother...although some eyes are wary.

After dealing with his companions' letters and spoils of war, it was still early, so Uchiha Shigeka bought some food and headed to the Senju clan's territory.

The Senju clan's territory is no longer as deserted as it used to be. With the influx of the Uzumaki clan, as soon as Uchiha Shigeka entered the Senju clan's territory, he was greeted by a bustling street full of people coming and going.

Red-haired Uzumaki people could be seen chatting everywhere, and their hearty laughter could be heard from time to time.

"Eh? Isn't that Xiao Chonghua?"

Someone spotted Uchiha Shigeka and immediately came up to him with a smile on his face.

Uchiha Shigeka observed the other party. He had a good memory and had chatted with him a few times in the Land of Whirlpools.

"Shouldn't you be on the front line? Why are you here?"

The Uzumaki member touched his chin and suddenly asked, "Could it be that you sneaked back here?"

Uchiha Shigeka was speechless: "There is nothing going on at the front line, and Lord Hokage gave me a week off."

He raised the food in his hand and said, "I'm here to look for Kushina."

"Ah, that girl Kushina."

The Uzumaki tribe member pointed to a training ground of the Senju tribe: "That girl is training there."

"Hey, that girl Kushina keeps mentioning your name all the time. Now that you appear in front of her, she must be so happy!"

Uchiha Shigeka thanked him: "Thank you for showing me the way."

The Uzumaki tribe member waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I was just pointing the way. I should be the one saying thank you."

Seeing Uchiha Shigeka's puzzled look, the Uzumaki clan member smiled and said, "Among the Uzumaki clan members you escorted were my mother and grandmother. Thanks to you, they arrived in Konoha safely."

"Just a mission..."

The Uzumaki tribe member interrupted him: "The mission is the mission, and you have made great efforts. Come on, take these."

The Uzumaki people directly stuffed a few skewers of meat into his hands. Uchiha Shigeka didn't want them, but the other party was not happy about it and forced it on him.

Uchiha Shigeka had no choice but to accept it.

The Uzumaki tribe member smiled: "That's right, well, I won't bother you from looking for Kushina anymore, you two should get along well!"

Uchiha Shigeka is very conspicuous in the Uzumaki clan, like a bright lamp in the dark sea, shining brightly.

After all, it would be strange if a black hair mixed in with all the red hair was not noticeable.

Many people noticed Uchiha Shigeka, and like social terrorists, they came over happily and started chatting with him.

Uchiha Shigeka was happily chatting with them at the beginning, but as time went on, he saw that everyone was getting more and more excited and refused to let him go.

This was too much for Uchiha Shigeka to bear.

"Dear uncles, aunties, sisters and brothers, it's getting late. I have something to talk to Kushina about. Let's talk next time. Let's talk next time."

"Hey, look at us, they're on a date, what are we doing blocking the way here?"

Aunt Uzumaki quickly asked everyone to disperse, and then said to Uchiha Shigeka embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to have wasted your time. Go quickly. Next time you have time, come to my store to eat and drink. It's free, no money required!"

Uchiha Shigeka left the crowd, sweating profusely. It was really hard to refuse such a kind invitation.

After walking a few more steps, we arrived at the training ground of the Senju clan.

He immediately spotted Uzumaki Kushina sitting in the shade of a tree.

She was frowning and her mouth was opening and closing as she said something.

"Stinky fox, I want to secretly go to the front line to find Chonghua, do you have any ideas?"

The imprisoned Kyuubi snorted, mocking Kushina's naivety.

[Forget about it. The Anbu around you are not just for free, so why did you sneak away?] At this point, Kyuubi grinned, revealing his sharp teeth.

[However, if you use my power, it won't be difficult to sneak out. Those Anbu can't stop you, and even the entire Konoha can't stop you! Then you can go wherever you want! ]

[Do you want this kind of freedom? ]

Uzumaki Kushina sneered: "The entire Konoha can't stop you, do you want to look at your current situation?"

"Don't say you sealed yourself voluntarily."

[You little bastard! Do you think Konoha still has Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama? How dare you underestimate my power? Let me out! I want you to see how powerful I am! ! ]

Uzumaki Kushina's body swayed, and she picked her ears in pain.

"Smelly fox! Why are you yelling so loudly!"

Kyuubi suddenly discovered something, stopped roaring, and snorted again.

[Stinky girl, it seems you don't have to sneak away anymore. ]

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Uzumaki Kushina was just wondering when a gentle voice came, causing her to pause.

"Why, are you arguing with Kyuubi again?"

She understood what Kyuubi said.

Uzumaki Kushina immediately stood up, a bright smile blooming on her round little face.

She ran towards the person she was thinking about, and pounced on Uchiha Shigeka like a bird flying into the forest.
