Naruto: I Beat The Villagers And Made Them Scream

To be honest, Kuragami Uchiha was stunned when he learned that the Konoha Military Police Force had the power to legislate.

With both legislative and law enforcement powers in hand and with its own armed forces, the Uchiha Clan in the original timeline still ended up with such a tragic fate.

But then again, considering that most of the clan members either had muscles for brains or were obsessed with clan honor, while the few who had some intelligence were either easily manipulated or too timid to take decisive action, this outcome wasn't all that surprising.

However, all this is different in Kuragami Uchiha's hands. He knows how to make good use of the existing power in his hands.

Shisui's efficiency is still quite high. Kuragami Uchiha issued his order, and two days later, a document called Village Public Security and Administration Punishment Law was placed on Kuragami Uchiha's desk.

Kuragami Uchiha, who was sitting at the desk, flipped through the draft submitted by Shisui, nodded with satisfaction, looked up at Shisui, who was looking forward to it, and said: "Well done, Shisui, you've put in a lot of effort."

"It's all for the will of fire." 

Shisui saw that Kuragami Uchiha seemed very satisfied with his efforts over the past two days, so he smiled and said.

"But don't you think the punishment is a bit too light?" 

Kuragami Uchiha pointed to the fine and verbal education on the table and said.

"Kuragami, they are just ordinary villagers, and this punishment is already very strict." Shisui was a little puzzled.

"Shisui, it seems that you still don't understand what I mean." 

Kuragami Uchiha said: "Before explaining, take a look at this."

Kuragami Uchiha stood up, took out a document with the word confidentiality level A written on the cover from the filing cabinet behind him, and handed it to Shisui.

"This... is not good." 

Looking at the words "Confidentiality level A" on the file bag, Shisui hesitated.

"You can read it if I ask you to. I believe that you, who also possess the will of fire, will not disclose these secrets at will." 

Kuragami Uchiha said.

"Okay." 

Shisui nodded reluctantly and opened the file bag.

What was inside was the truth about the White Fang incident dug out from the mouths of the senior members of the Shimura Clan.

"This..." 

The bloody truth shocked Shisui Uchiha beyond words. He had also studied the will of fire some time ago and learned about White Fang, the hero of the village, but what he didn't expect was that behind the death of this hero, there were so many dirty things hidden.

"Is the point of our enactment of this set of laws to punish those villagers? No! What we have to do is to protect the reputation of the heroes! Just imagine, if the heroes who have made great contributions to the village can be slandered, then who will believe in the glory of the will of fire!"

Kuragami Uchiha looked into Shisui's eyes and said seriously: "The tragedy of White Fang must never be repeated! That is my Will of Fire!"

"I understand."

Shisui sighed and said that after putting down the document,

"You have done a good job; leave the rest to me." 

At this time, Kuragami Uchiha spoke.

After spending some time together, Kuragami Uchiha also understood Shisui's personality. 

This guy was still as naive and idealistic as ever. But more importantly, Kuragami Uchiha realized that Shisui wasn't so much brainwashed by Hiruzen Sarutobi by the concept of the Will of Fire itself. That, in turn, made things easier for Kuragami Uchiha because who's to say the Will of Fire couldn't be used by the Uchiha? As long as the Uchiha could present themselves as embodying the true Will of Fire better than Hiruzen, Shisui would naturally side with the clan.

Shisui left somewhat lost, while Kuragami Uchiha picked up the draft on the table and revised it.

After the revision was completed, Kuragami Uchiha called Saito Uchiha and asked him to prepare to take people to post this notice in the village.

In the latest version of the bill, Kuragami Uchiha made detailed provisions for punishment measures.

Those who spread rumors would be fined and given a verbal warning, while those who spread rumors that defamed village heroes, with serious consequences, would face prison detention ranging from 7 days to a month.

Those found to be the source of false rumors would be sentenced to up to six months in prison.

Kuragami Uchiha took this legal provision and went to the Hokage's office.

After all, Hiruzen Sarutobi is still the highest leader of the village. Even if Tobirama Senju gave Uchiha the power to legislate, Kuragami Uchiha had to let Hiruzen Sarutobi know about it.

After Kuragami Uchiha arrived at the Hokage building and reported his purpose, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked Kuragami Uchiha to wait for a while before calling him into the Hokage's office.

Kuragami Uchiha entered the Hokage's office and saw Shikaku Nara, the Hokage's assistant, standing beside Hiruzen Sarutobi at a glance and smiled secretly in his heart.

It seems that with the threat of the Kotoamatsukami, this old guy really doesn't dare to meet Kuragami Uchiha alone. Every time he meets Kuragami Uchiha, there must be at least one person around him.

However, this is exactly what Kuragami Uchiha wants. Kuragami Uchiha put the new legal provisions in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi, then bowed and said: "Third Hokage-sama, there have been a lot of rumors in the village recently. In order to curb this bad atmosphere, the Konoha Military Police Force intends to issue a bill on this. Please take a look at it, Hokage-sama."

After Kuragami Uchiha's voice fell, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shikaku Nara looked at each other. 

Shikaku Nara lowered his head and did not speak while Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up the bill submitted by Kuragami Uchiha and read it.

After a long time, Hiruzen Sarutobi lit up his pipe, took a deep breath, exhaled a cloud of smoke, and then slowly said: "Kuragami, isn't this punishment a bit too severe?"

"Severe? I don't think so." 

Kuragami Uchiha said righteously: "If anyone can wantonly slander the heroes who fought for the village, then what is the will of fire? Where the leaves of Konoha fall, the fire will also continue to grow. The flames will continue to illuminate the village and let the new leaves sprout." 

"But if we can't even guarantee the reputation of the heroes who are willing to burn for the village, then in the future, who will be willing to burn themselves for the new green leaves?"

After Kuragami Uchiha finished speaking, Shikaku Nara silently took two steps back and lowered his head at the same time.

Although he is now the assistant of the Hokage, he knew that matters concerning the Will of Fire were not something an ordinary ninja clan head like him should get involved with.
