Naruto: We Uchiha only want to make money.

Chapter 15: Breaking into the Daimyo's Mansion, the Fierce Shingetsu Clashes with Jiraiya!

The daimyo residence.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire remained behind a white curtain, only his silhouette visible.

Not far in front of him.

Qingshui and Tieshu knelt on one knee, their faces showing embarrassment.

"You mean, your captain, Uchiha Kamizuki, is catching thieves in the capital?" the Fire Country Daimyo asked slowly and deliberately.

"Not bad!" Qing Shui and Tie Shu nodded.

"Nonsense! The capital is under my rule, a place of peace and order, a clear and bright world. How could there be thieves?" The daimyo of the Land of Fire suddenly reprimanded him.

Upon hearing this, Qing Shui and Tie Shu couldn't help but exchange a glance and roll their eyes.

How can someone claim to be upright and just when their own vault has been robbed?

Are you kidding me?

Seeing that the two people were not replying to him.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire turned his gaze to a handsome monk kneeling nearby.

"Dilu, tell me, how well have I governed the country?"

When Jiraiya heard the question from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, he hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

"General Kurozumi, what do you say?" The daimyo of the Land of Fire looked to the other side, at the general who served as his guard.

"Under your rule, our Fire Kingdom is thriving and our people are living in peace and prosperity!" General Black Charcoal hurriedly flattered.

"Hahaha, that's right! Under my rule, the country is peaceful and prosperous, how could there be any poor people?"

"How despicable! How dare some audacious thief steal from the vault three times! He deserves to die!"

Upon hearing this, Di Lu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

below.

Qing Shui and Tie Shu looked at each other, both worried for Shen Yue.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire, however, had no intention of letting them go and continued speaking.

"That Shingetsu dared to make me wait this long. If he doesn't have the real skill to catch the thief who stole from the vault, the budget allocated to Konoha this year will be reduced by another 30%!"

"Another 30% reduction?"

Upon hearing the name of the Fire Country, Qing Shui and Tie Shu's eyes widened in surprise.

The Land of Fire doesn't allocate much funding to Konoha each year.

If we reduce it by another 30%.

Putting aside everything else, Konoha will definitely take its anger out on the Uchiha clan.

At that time, the police force's funding will definitely be cut.

Although the plan that Kamizuki mentioned before, to make the Uchiha clan great again, is excellent.

But that was still just a plan.

With funding cuts now in place, the Uchiha clan's situation will only worsen.

Just then.

Suddenly, a series of exclamations rang out from outside the guards.

"Who dares to trespass into the daimyo's residence?"

"Men, seize him!"

"Ouch, that hurts!"

"Watch out, everyone! The thief is vicious!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

A series of dull thuds of armor clashing rang out simultaneously with the guards' cries of alarm.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, the expressions of everyone inside the hall changed drastically.

"Protect the daimyo!" General Kurozumi drew his katana and stood guard in front of the daimyo.

Di Lu took two steps forward, his eyes narrowing slightly, his feet spread apart, and his arms outstretched, ready to make a move at any moment.

As for Qing Shui and Tie Shu, they also turned to look outside.

"My God, to dare to barge into the daimyo's mansion in broad daylight, I guess only the captain has that kind of guts!" Qing Shui muttered to himself unconsciously.

"The captain wouldn't... but he might actually do it!" Upon hearing this, Tie Shu, who was standing next to him, suddenly felt a chill in his heart and a guess that he himself dared not even think about popped into his head.

Outside, the sounds of fighting and screams grew closer.

A figure with astonishing speed could be vaguely seen, carrying a person in its hand while moving like a butterfly amidst the heavy guards' attacks. Its agile body precisely evaded every attack, found every gap, and passed through with precision, while also delivering heavy blows to the surrounding guards.

"What amazing martial arts skills!"

"Holy crap, this really is the captain! Holy crap, it really is the captain! He's so brave!" Qing Shui and Tie Shu's eyes widened instantly, as if they had been struck by lightning.

Just then, Shen Yue outside finally broke through the last layer of guards and entered the hall.

At this moment, the land finally moved.

"You audacious assassin, how dare you disturb a great name! I, Di Lu, will fight you!" Di Lu's eyes widened in anger, and his body sprang up to meet Shen Yue.

"Chiraku, Chiraku of the Fire Temple, one of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas!" Upon hearing the man introduce himself, Shingetsu immediately recognized the bald monk before him.

"You thief, take this punch!" In that instant, Di Lu's figure was like a tiger released from its cage, carrying a strong wind as he rushed straight towards Shen Yue. At the same time, his fist whistled, so fast that it almost left afterimages.

"Sharingan!" Shen Yue instantly activated his Sharingan, immediately capturing Ji Riku's attack trajectory. At the same time, he charged up his power and punched Ji Riku.

boom!

The two men's fists clashed, like metal striking metal, and faint ripples spread through the air where their fists collided.

With this exchange of punches, both figures shot backward simultaneously.

boom!

Shen Yue used the momentum to flip three times backwards, and when she landed lightly, her left hand was behind her back and her right hand was pressed on the ground, as if she were completely unharmed.

Di Lu, however, stomped his feet hard on the floor, the force cushioning his fall, and staggered back three steps, his knees trembling almost imperceptibly.

He seemed to be slightly at a disadvantage in this attack.

"This boy's physical skills are so amazing, and his eyes are Sharingan?" Jiraiya looked at Shingetsu with surprise in his eyes.

Qingshui and Tieshu, who were behind, started beating their captain as soon as he entered.

Fearing that the two might really get into a fight, he quickly revealed his identity.

"Wait, don't make a move! This is our Captain Shenyue!"

"He is Uchiha Shingetsu. He is so young, yet he has become the captain of the police force. And his strength?" General Kurozumi and Jiraiya were both shocked.

Only then did they realize that the person who had stormed the hall was a handsome young man with black hair and delicate features, and the Konoha emblem was engraved on his forehead.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire, who was behind the white curtain, also drew back the curtain, revealing his true face.

It was a very ordinary middle-aged face, with almost no distinguishing features.

"Dilu, step back!"

Upon hearing this, Di Lu stopped his stance, clasped his hands together, and returned to his original position, but his gaze remained fixed on Shen Yue's vital points.

Shingetsu straightened his slightly disheveled clothes and bowed to the curtain: "Uchiha Shingetsu, I have been ordered to investigate the case."

"You Konoha ninjas, or rather, you Uchiha clan, are really arrogant, daring to trespass on the Daimyo's residence. If you didn't know better, you'd think you were an assassin, right?" Kurozumi Shogun, who was guarding the Daimyo, suddenly spoke up sarcastically.

Shen Yue's crimson eyes flickered as she glanced at him, but she didn't bother with him.

Instead, he pointed to the limp, mud-like figure at Aozumi's feet: "The real culprit in the treasury theft case, Nobunaga Utagaki, has been captured."

"You mean, this person is the thief who stole from the treasury three times?" The daimyo of the Land of Fire glanced at Kaguya Nobunaga, somewhat incredulous.

General Black Charcoal also took a closer look.

"He's thin and shows no signs of physical training; this kind of person couldn't possibly be a burglar!"
