Chapter 161 Tsunade: The Utatane family is guilty of grave sins, let's kill them!
Police Department Building.
Inside an office overlooking the encirclement and suppression of the Tsukuyomi family.
Yuuki stood facing the glass, his expression unchanged, watching the situation escalate.
He was secretly planning when to send out his Zergling army to make a show of themselves.
Tsunade, standing to the side, still had the sadness on her face, and a hint of worry had appeared in her eyes.
"Yushu, isn't this high-profile arrest a bit excessive?"
"The war is not over yet; the three great ninja villages are attacking Konoha."
"Grandma Mito has just passed away, so Kushina cannot rely on the power of the Nine-Tails."
It's no exaggeration to say that Tsunade believes the village's fighting strength has plummeted to rock bottom!
She also disapproved of Koharu's behavior.
Cracking down on some illegal businessmen is no problem.
However, at this time, opposing Koharu Utatane could very well drag Hiruzen Sarutobi down with him, causing the situation in the village to spiral out of control!
It will only excite the village's enemies!
Not to mention the despicable Shimura Danzo, who has returned to the village!
Standing behind the two, Uchiha Rinpoche chimed in, "Violent suppression will only bounce back in the form of hatred."
She personally witnessed the endless bloodshed within the clan as they vied for the position of clan leader!
Initially, the candidates for clan leader were driven by their own personal will and a desire to guide the clan forward.
In the end, it's just a simple fight for revenge, no longer a battle of ideologies!
"Tsunade, Elder, you don't really think I'm venting my personal grievances, do you?"
Yuuki silently opened a drawer, took out a stack of scrolls marked 'Top Secret', and handed them to the two men.
"Torture the family of the Tsuo-sei (a Japanese family) seems impulsive, but am I an impulsive person?"
"You don't actually think I'm some kind of reckless brute who ignores the facts just to get revenge, do you?"
Tsunade and Uchiha Nakamaru opened the scroll and began reading it quickly, their expressions growing increasingly grave.
Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan spun rapidly, his expression suggesting unease.
"Is this all true?"
Tsunade even unleashed a layer of murderous aura!
His face contorted slightly.
"How dare she!!"
"They lost their position as elders and their control over the healthcare system!"
"How dare the family that switches dorm rooms?!"
"These wicked bastards deserve to die!"
Looking at the chaotic battlefield in the distance, Yuuki sighed, "What is there that she wouldn't dare to do? Human desires are like boulders on a mountaintop; once they start rolling down, they can never be stopped until they are shattered to pieces!"
"Moreover, even without the position of elder, she is still the Hokage's classmate and still leads a thriving clan!"
"He's been sucking blood from the leaves for so many years, it wasn't for nothing."
Yuuki's expression turned sour and unpleasant. He reminded her, "Tsunade, have you forgotten the corruption case uncovered at Konoha Hospital? I never believed that such evil could exist in isolation!"
Tsunade sulked, scrutinizing the scroll, growing angrier the more she looked at it!
The scroll details the crimes of the Tsutomu family, and the methods of committing these crimes were not simple, direct offenses, but rather a roundabout way of doing so.
For example, the way pensions are embezzled after the loss of power over the healthcare system.
The ninjas who changed their seats did not directly confiscate the compensation money. Without the endorsement of Konoha Hospital, they could not directly deduct the compensation money.
However, there is a more tactful way.
After the family contacted the logistics department, they exchanged a large portion of the compensation money for vouchers!
Each time, a small amount of cash and a large amount of vouchers are given to the ninja's family!
The purchasing power of vouchers is also limited.
The vouchers can only be used in the Tsukai-sou family's shop, and the items that can be exchanged each day are limited in quantity, but the price is unlimited!
Many families of fallen ninjas could only exchange their money for completely useless items at exorbitant prices and then sell them on the streets.
Moreover, the buyer might very well be a businessman from the Utatane family!
"Was the Sarutobi family involved in this matter?"
Yuuki shook his head: "So far, no trace of their involvement has been found."
But the future is uncertain.
The Sarutobi clan is one of the important 'shareholders' in the establishment of Konoha, and they are aware of the strength of the Senju and Mito Uzumaki.
After Hiruzen Sarutobi became the Third Hokage, the Sarutobi clan remained stable and peaceful, rarely resorting to excessive means to seize resources within the village.
Some of them may still cherish the ideals they held when they founded Konoha.
The other group of people did not disregard the benefits derived from the village, but rather were concerned about the presence of Mito Uzumaki and did not want to give up greater benefits for a little bit of profit.
Idealists will eventually grow old, and those who prioritize self-interest have lost their checks and balances!
The Sarutobi clan will inevitably take its first greedy step in 'reaping' profits sooner or later.
In addition, Hiruzen Sarutobi is good at indecisiveness.
He was not a decisive and ruthless leader who made decisions on every issue.
This is bound to fuel the arrogance of the Sarutobi clan.
"Is all this information true? If it's handed over to the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi shouldn't ignore it for the safety of the village, right?"
Uchiha Jiro had a deep affection for the village, but according to the First Hokage's Will of Fire, he didn't have such a deep affection for the villagers.
Furthermore, after resolving the clan leadership dispute, she chose to retire to the riverside and live a secluded life.
When dealing with some practical problems, he is somewhat naive and compromising.
"Hmph!" Tsunade snorted coldly, without answering.
"Maybe." Yuuki wasn't really sure what choice Hiruzen Sarutobi would make now that he knew about Koharu Utatane's actions.
Should we compromise for the sake of war, or execute Koharu Utatane to establish our prestige?
The trend of tripartite power sharing within the village is becoming increasingly apparent.
Tsunade wins over Senju's old subordinates, and Yuuki rebuilds the prestige of the police department. Everything goes smoothly and is in full swing.
Only Hiruzen Sarutobi failed every time he tried to do something.
He caused heavy losses to his own forces, suffered defeats in the war, prices spiraled out of control, and there was inequality in rewards and punishments... Everyone was very disappointed, and the Hokage's authority was severely damaged.
Furthermore, since Hiruzen Sarutobi had not fought for a long time, his 'fist power' was also unable to play its role as the last step in maintaining his prestige.
If we really get rid of Koharu Utatane, swallow up the Utatane family, and distribute the huge profits to our subordinates, we might actually be able to win back some of the people's hearts.
Choosing to compromise for the sake of war is also a path.
They dispatched Danzo or the Anbu to enemy countries to intensify the Shinobi World War through sabotage, bribery, or assassination.
External pressure is used to forcibly suppress internal pressure.
Yuuki was quite curious about which path Hiruzen Sarutobi would choose.
...
"Xiaochun! No matter what, if you can't clean up this mess, I'll do it for you myself!"
In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped the table, giving Koharu Utatane a stern warning, emphasizing the words "I'll clean up for you."
"Hiruzen, I understand!" Koharu Utatane bowed her head in apology, then looked up and said unhappily, "But, doesn't the Uchiha clan have any problems at all? Without the Hokage's order, what right do you have to search for the Utatane clan's properties!"
"Moreover, they have already attacked innocent civilians; this is treason! We cannot hesitate; we must strike hard!"
Hearing the same old, tired rambling again, Hiruzen Sarutobi closed his eyes, waved his hand in annoyance, and looked wearily at the silent Homura Mitokado, asking, "How are the logistical issues on the battlefield being handled?"
