I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

The faint fragrance of tea filled the tea room, and everything was quiet.

Nara Langui leisurely tasted the tea that Uchiha Mikoto had just brought, with an extremely comfortable attitude, as if he had completely forgotten what he had said before.

Uchiha Fugaku sat quietly across the table.

He and Nara Langui were the only two people in the entire tea room.

Uchiha Mikoto, Uchiha Itachi, and Uchiha Shisui who came with Nara to take Gui, were not here at this time.

Uchiha Fugaku picked up the teacup and took a few sips of the tea. After all, he still couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart.

"Fourth Generation, you just said that you have some new ideas about the police department..."

"Well, there are indeed some new ideas."

Nara Langui put down the tea, but instead of directly expressing his thoughts, he suddenly changed the topic.

"Clan Fugaku has been in charge of the police department for many years. I wonder what kind of department the police department is in the eyes of Clan Fugaku?"

"...Since the founding of the village, the Uchiha clan has been responsible for maintaining public security in the village."

Uchiha Fugaku couldn't figure out the exact attitude of Nara Langui, so he just responded to the other party's questions according to his inner thoughts.

"All Uchiha are proud to be members of the police force."

"Clan Chief Fugaku may have misunderstood what I meant."

Nara Langui twitched the corner of his mouth and stopped playing tricks with Uchiha Fugaku.

"As far as I know, the main job of the police department is to maintain law and order in the village and arrest residents, travelers and even ninjas who violate public security laws in the village."

This is indeed the most important job of the Police Department.

certainly.

In the eyes of Senju Tobirama, who originally established the police department.

Another "job" of the Police Department is to centralize the scope of the Uchiha Clan's actions in the Police Department and publicly display it in the eyes of other people in Konoha Village to prevent the Uchiha Clan from engaging in any conspiracy in secret.

To be fair.

Nara Rangui recognized Senju Tobirama's political strategy of establishing a police department.

He just didn't agree with Senju Tobirama leaving the police department alone in the hands of the Uchiha clan.

In addition, there is another point that he does not agree with...

The job of the police department seems important.

But the problem is that the scope of law enforcement by the Police Department is relatively limited.

For example, when it comes to Anbu-related matters, the Police Department has absolutely no way to get involved.

But how wide is the scope of the affairs that ANBU is involved in?

Put it this way.

ANBU can kill people that other departments dare not kill.

The ANBU can take care of things that other departments dare not take care of.

One sentence.

What other ninjas can take care of, ANBU can take care of;

What other ninjas can't control, ANBU can control even more.

Kill first and show later, Hokage's permission.

This is ANBU.

Anbu, the full name of the assassination tactics special forces, is personally commanded and led by the Hokage.

That's right!

ANBU is actually the Hokage's private army!

How can the police department compete with the ANBU for jobs?

Not to mention that the police department is still in charge of the Uchiha clan, the Uchiha clan that has been disliked since the Second Hokage.

The powers of the Police Department are even more limited...

These words in Nara Langui's mind have not been explained to Uchiha Fugaku for the time being.

The latter just nodded silently, expressing his approval of the Yondaime's words, without saying anything more.

Nara Langui saw that Uchiha Fugaku didn't take the initiative to speak, so he simply solved the mystery himself.

"Chief Fugaku, I think that with the continuous development of the village, many of the functions of the current police department have seriously overlapped with other departments, especially the ANBU!"

Uchiha Fugaku suddenly raised his head and looked at Nara Langui.

The Yondaime's words didn't sound like good words.

The functions of the Police Department overlap with those of the Anbu.

Then one party must take the initiative to make concessions to avoid wasting resources.

But can Naruto weaken the Anbu under his control?

Of course not.

So when the functions of the Anbu and the Police Department conflict.

The only one who can give in is the weaker police department.

But how could Uchiha Fugaku accept this so easily?

If Konoha were compared to a card table.

The Police Department can be said to be the only card the Uchiha clan has in their hands now.

Listen to what the Yondaime means...

This new Hokage seems to be planning to forcibly weaken the Uchiha clan's hand?

Then how to play!

"The Fourth Generation--"

Uchiha Fugaku spoke in a deep voice, as if he wanted to say something.

As if Nara Langui didn't hear Uchiha Fugaku's words, he spoke to himself.

"In addition, the Uchiha clan alone controls the police department. I also think this is worth reconsidering."

Uchiha Fugaku's eyes immediately widened.

The Fourth Hokage not only intends to weaken the law enforcement scope and comprehensive influence of the police department.

Are you still planning to kick the Uchiha clan out?

Uchiha Fugaku couldn't accept it even more!

"Yondaime-sama!"

Uchiha Fugaku watched Nara take Gui, and forcibly suppressed the urge to open the Sharingan.

"The Uchiha clan has made great contributions to the village, and the Uchiha clan has shed blood for the village! Does the village still want to treat us, the Uchiha clan--"

"Don't take your words so seriously, Chief Fugaku."

Nara Langui frowned, and he forcibly interrupted the other party's words.

"You misunderstood me again!

“The functions of the Anbu and the Police Department overlap, which means that the two departments need to reset their scope of authority.

“In addition, it is really inappropriate for the Uchiha clan to be in charge of a department alone.

"I am going to let other ninjas join the police department to contribute to the security of the village, including but not limited to ninjas and civilian ninjas.

"But for the Uchiha clan, I also have certain plans."

Uchiha Fugaku's anger was suppressed.

"How does the Fourth Generation plan to arrange our Uchiha clan?"

"What about 'us' and 'you'? We are all ninjas of Konoha, so there is no need to keep emphasizing this difference."

Nara Langui waved his hand and took out his chips.

"Since other ninjas can join the police department, members of the Uchiha clan can also join other departments and agencies."

Can the Uchiha clan join other departments and organizations? !

Hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes suddenly lit up.

Again.

The Police Department is not only the territory of the Uchiha clan, but also the prison of the Uchiha clan.

No matter how outstanding the ninjas of the Uchiha clan are, they can only spend their energy on the police department.

But what can you do in the police department?

Nothing more than trivial things.

Ninjas with ordinary backgrounds may find the Police Department a good place to go.

But there are some elite ninjas in the Uchiha clan!

The Sharingan is really a great way to enhance a ninja's strength!

It is indeed a bit unfair to confine the Uchiha clan to a small police department.

Uchiha Fugaku originally wanted to use Uchiha Shisui as a "bridge" to maintain the connection between the family and the village in order to strengthen the Uchiha clan.

The most critical step is to remove the tentacles of the Uchiha clan from the police department!

Uchiha Fugaku never expected that before he could cultivate the relationship with Uchiha Shisui, the "rightful master" would speak first.

And it also points directly to the core demands of the Uchiha clan!

The Fourth Hokage has taken over, and the village is at peace!

The Fourth Hokage has ascended the throne, and Qing Tian will have it!

The Uchiha clan doesn't really want much.

The so-called "core demands" are actually just two words——

fair!
