Konoha: The Absolute Justice of the Uchiha.

Chapter 84: This is how we Konoha's unruly citizens are.

"I heard that jinx from the Uchiha clan got into another fight last night. They even destroyed the Yamanaka clan's stronghold, and now the Yamanaka clan is temporarily staying with the Nara clan!"

"The noise last night was really loud... I was so scared I couldn't sleep all night."

"The Hokage should have expelled Uchiha Izumi from Konoha for disrupting the village's order! Why should his so-called enforcement of justice disturb our rest?"

"Hey, you didn't do something wrong, did you? You're probably afraid of getting caught by Uchiha Ikezumi, that's why you're saying this, right?"

"I heard that quite a few people died in last night's battle..."

"Honestly, these ninjas only know how to fight amongst themselves."

"..."

"The news spreads so fast!" Izumi exclaimed, then added with a hint of annoyance, "Senior Izumi has always upheld justice in the ninja world and hasn't done anything to these innocent people. What gives them the right to talk about him like that?"

Tachibana Jiro said, "Every household in Konoha has a television set these days, and what happened last night was on this morning's news. Rookie, as a trainee member of the police force, don't you know how to use television and newspapers to gather intelligence?"

"As for these people's gossip... Is this the first time you've met these troublemakers from Konoha? They always believe whatever they hear, otherwise Sakumo Hatake wouldn't have been driven to his death by public opinion back then."

Just as Quan was about to mutter something, a familiar figure not far ahead caught her attention.

"Ah—it's Ikezumi-senpai!!!"

Izumi finally met Uchiha Izumi. She rushed over and then silently counted the time.

After realizing how close I had come to being late.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Eh?"

However, he soon discovered that Senior Chi Quan was actually carrying a half-grown devil with blond hair.

This is not...

"Naruto Uzumaki?!" Izumi looked at Naruto, who looked desperate and helpless, in surprise. She remembered that this unfortunate kid had been thrown into Konoha Prison by Izumi-senpai, right? How did he end up here?

"Senior, he..."

"The Third Hokage used his pardoning authority to release him," said Uchiha Izumi, holding Naruto by the arm with one hand, his face expressionless.

Naruto, his little face contorted in a tearful rage, cried out in a panic, "Grandpa Hokage has already pardoned me, and I haven't caused any trouble lately, please, please let me off the hook... I really know I was wrong, Grandpa Hokage has already criticized me..."

Naruto never expected to be so unlucky.

Finally, the weekend arrived, a day off from school. I was planning to go out and buy the limited-edition instant noodles I'd been eyeing for ages.

Who would have thought...

I ran into the person I least wanted to see in my life first thing this morning!

The key point is that the other party also discovered him!

then……

This situation arose after Naruto's escape attempt failed.

However, under the watchful gaze of Uchiha Ikezumi, Naruto's voice grew softer and softer until it was barely audible.

The pressure that Uchiha Ikezumi brought him was many times greater than the pressure that the Hokage brought him.

Naruto already has psychological trauma.

"It seems that with the Third Hokage's protection, who abuses his power, Konoha Prison can't hold you." Uchiha Izumi's words did not relieve Naruto; instead, they made his face turn pale.

No... if I don't lock myself up in prison, does that mean I should just kill myself?

Naruto's legs went weak with fear.

When Uchiha Izumi loosened his grip, Naruto fell to the ground with a "thud," and he sat motionless on the ground as if he had been scared out of his wits.

"Naruto Uzumaki, do you see this street?" Izumi Uchiha said indifferently, "Starting today, you'll be coming here at this time every day. You'll be responsible for cleaning the entire street by yourself. This period is six months. If you miss even one day in six months, you'll have to clean for another six months."

"Even a small evil is still an evil. Although your crime does not warrant death, if you do not learn a lesson, your small evil will one day turn into a great evil. Once that day comes, I will kill you without hesitation."

Uchiha Izumi never blindly follows the original plot.

His very existence has already stirred up enough hurricanes in the ninja world.

With countless butterfly effects intertwined, can Naruto Uzumaki truly be like the original story? Can he truly follow the original plot?

Rather than allowing Naruto Uzumaki to develop into Menma Namikaze.

It would be better to correct it now with absolute measures.

Eliminate all possibilities.

Naruto froze, his tear-filled eyes blinking, and almost instinctively asked, "You...you won't kill me?"

As soon as he asked that question, Naruto wanted to slap himself.

Ugh, why did I have to be so talkative!

Uchiha Ikezumi glanced at him and slowly said, "[Absolute Justice] is not blind justice that kills without asking why. Blind justice will only turn justice into a disaster more terrifying than the villains. With your past petty evils and your future blank slate of evils, labor reform is already the limit of your punishment."

Naruto was completely confused.

……

Meanwhile, the group entered Konoha through the village gates.

"My lord, please rest at the Konoha Inn for a while. I will go and inform the Hokage." A ninja said to a richly dressed, wealthy-looking young man.

The young man, sweating profusely, fanned himself with a folding fan and complained, "Shouldn't you have known I'd be coming to Konoha today?"

The ninja bowed his head apologetically and said, "Mainly because there have been many upheavals within Konoha in the past few days, it's possible that the Hokage, being so busy with official duties, has overlooked some aspects."

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. I'm sure the Hokage will come to greet you personally soon, with great remorse."

The young man narrowed his eyes, but didn't say anything more.

Ninjas are ultimately the absolute controllers of force in this world.

The role played by the daimyo is merely that of a stabilizer of the economy and order.

Falling out with a ninja will definitely not end well.

"Wait a minute." The young man suddenly changed the subject, rubbing his free fingertip together with interest, and said, "Where is your Konoha casino? Can you give me directions? I'll go take a look."

"casino……"

The Konoha ninja's eyelids twitched. Remembering Lady Koharu Utatane's instructions, he hurriedly said, "My lord, please do not approach Konoha's casinos or bathhouses."

The young man frowned deeply: "Why!?"

"Because..." The Konoha ninja took a deep breath, "There's a very special ninja in the village. If he were to meet you, sir, he might not hesitate..."

"...I'll kill you!"

young people:"……???"

"Your Konoha... has any ninja who dares to kill an envoy sent by the Daimyo?!"

A middle-aged man dressed as a retainer interjected incredulously, "You mean such a dangerous person is loitering around in the marketplace? Hey, why don't they arrest this kind of guy?"

"If he were to act recklessly and harm the envoy, could your Konoha Village... bear that responsibility?"

The Konoha ninja's lips twitched. How could he know why the Hokage was so indulgent towards Uchiha Ikezumi?

Left with no other option, he could only explain, "Konoha wouldn't arrest an innocent ninja without cause. Besides, the person I'm talking about is one of Konoha's enforcers."

The young daimyo's envoy, clutching his folding fan, frowned slightly, a sense of unease creeping into his heart, and asked, "What's that person's name?"

"Uchiha Ikezumi," the Konoha ninja replied.
