Chapter 123: Is the Shimura Clan's territory not within the patrol range of the police department?

"Old man, what do you need from me? I still have to prepare breakfast for Naruto, I'm very busy."

"I didn't realize Jiraiya had a knack for being a nanny."

Third Hokage couldn't help but tease.

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, scratching his head:

"Ahaha, well, because it's Naruto's request, so I try my best to satisfy him, just helping to prepare breakfast."

In order to make up for Naruto, Jiraiya has put in a lot of effort, taking care of Naruto like both a father and a mother.

And Naruto is happy every day, even walking can make him laugh out loud.

It's unclear whether Jiraiya's change is good or bad, but it's nice that he's willing to accompany Naruto, which can reduce some of his inner guilt.

After all, he feels guilty towards Minato, he didn't fulfill his promise to Minato, and he didn't take good care of Naruto.

Fortunately, Jiraiya took over Naruto, allowing Naruto to feel the warmth of home and enjoy the company of family.

"Jiraiya, I'm afraid you won't be able to prepare breakfast for Naruto anymore, there's something you need to investigate."

The Third Hokage solemnly instructed:

"Just now, the people of the Shimura clan came to the Hokage office to report that their family's Patriarch and two elders disappeared overnight, even the clan members on night watch didn't see their traces, do you understand what I mean?"

"You mean someone made a move?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya's sleepiness disappeared, and he became serious.

This is not a small matter.

The family Patriarch and elders disappeared overnight, especially for a large clan like Shimura, such a thing has never happened since the founding of Konohagakure.

If it's just a misunderstanding, it's okay, but if they were really attacked and really disappeared, it could definitely cause a big shock.

"I will investigate."

Sorry Naruto, you'll have to make your breakfast yourself!

Apologizing to Naruto in his heart, Jiraiya decisively left and headed to the Shimura clan's territory.

He needs to personally check the scene.

Not long after Jiraiya left, Fugaku came to the Hokage office.

"Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama."

After saluting, Fugaku stood in front of the two, waiting for the two leaders to speak.

Receiving a hint from her teacher's eyes, Tsunade spoke:

"Patriarch Fugaku, which areas did the police department's patrol team cover last night?

Who were the members of the patrol team, please give me a detailed list."

A list?

Fugaku was confused, he was notified to come to the Hokage office early in the morning, and he had no idea what had happened.

A list was quickly sent from the police department.

Tsunade and the Third Hokage looked it over in detail.

"The Shimura clan's territory is not within the patrol area?"

Tsunade found a problem, that is, the patrol area of the police department does not cover the territories of each clan.

I would like to let the police department's patrol range cover the territories of each clan, but some people don't allow it!

If the police department is really allowed to include the territories of each clan in the patrol area, it could also expand the scale of the police department.

Fugaku complained in his heart and glanced at the Third Hokage.

Tsunade understood instantly, it's not that Uchiha doesn't want to, but the Third Hokage doesn't allow it, or the higher-ups don't allow it.

It must involve the issue against Uchiha, and not allowing the police department to expand.

For this, Tsunade had nothing to say.

She could only let Fugaku go first.

What exactly happened, Hokage-sama and Tsunade-sama actually want to check the patrol list of the police department and question the patrol area?

They also mentioned the Shimura clan, did something happen to the Shimura clan?

With questions, Fugaku went directly to the police department and instructed the secretary:

"After Yan came, ask him come to see me."

"Old man, are you getting overly nervous?"

"Moreover, the police department's authority is getting smaller and smaller, which is not good for the village. If something big happens, they don't even have the right to handle it."

The current police department has been neutered in various ways, unable to manage this or participate in that.

Tsunade can't imagine what would happen if a major incident really occurred in Konohagakure one day, and the people in the police department were hesitant and lost the opportunity for immediate support and rescue.

Like the night of the Nine-Tails, Uchiha was suspected as the culprit, but when Uchiha wanted to give a help, Danzo was messing up with them.

Danzo would rather block Uchiha with his Root members than let Uchiha giving a help for the village.

What the hell is he doing!!

"Maybe I'm overthinking."

When it comes to some unspeakable struggles, the Third Hokage had a bit of embarrassment on his face and moved on from the topic.

What rights the future police department can have depends on Tsunade's decision. At least for now, the restrictions on the police department cannot be lifted.

The sun is rising.

Yan, who didn't get enough sleep, cancelled his plan to have breakfast at the ninja school and went straight to the police department. He'll decide what he wants to eat later and have his secretary help him buy it.

"Yan! The chief wants you to come to his office."

The chief's secretary reminded Yan, who had just arrived at the police department.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

What does Fugaku want with him so early in the morning? Did he find out about the Shimura clan's affairs?

It seems that the village's actions are quite fast.

I wonder if Obito has seen those three bodies yet. His face must be very ugly.

After all, Uchiha has been blamed for such a crime.

I'll give you a little stimulation for now, but there will be more stimulation in the future, wait for it Obito.

"Patriarch, are you looking for me?"

Walking into the chief's office, Yan sat directly on the sofa, almost lying down.

Looking at Yan, who was as casual as if he was back at his own home, Fugaku's eyelids jumped a few times:

"What did you do last night? Didn't you sleep well?"

"I'd be surprised if I could sleep well."

Yan, who knew what was going on, complained:

"It's all Aunt Asan fault. She kept talking about wanting to introduce her niece to me, saying that I'm not young anymore and should find a girlfriend. The girlfriend should be from the family, not from outside. She also said that Izumi is still young. I'm almost annoyed to death."

There has always been a rumor in the family that Yan has a blood disease, but some people don't believe it. The one who wants to introduce a girlfriend to Yan is one of them.

The enthusiasm was so great that Yan couldn't stand it.

"...."

You're only fifteen!!

Fugaku suddenly thought of his past self and coughed: "Asan is not wrong, Izumi is indeed a bit young."

I don't believe you!

You were chasing after Uchiha Mikoto back then, and everyone in the family knew about it. How dare you said that.

A twenty-something old man, staring at a teenage girl, it's a good thing you're the young patriarch, otherwise who in the family would like you?

Uchiha Mikoto was famous in the village at that time. She was gentle, understanding, and had good strength.

She was famous in the family and in the village, and there were a lot of people pursuing her.

But she was chased by Fugaku.

In the end, relying on his status and his own thick skin, he successfully won the beauty.

Such a shameless person still has the nerve to teach him.

Giving Fugaku a knowing look, Yan shook his head and said, "I've heard a lot of people say that the age of the Patriarch's wife was also very young back then."

"Cough cough!!!"

Fugaku was successfully broken.

Although in the ninja world, it's normal to start dating at a few years old and get married at fifteen or sixteen, it's another matter when someone brings it up to tease.

"Forget it, pretend I didn't say anything."

Fugaku really wanted to curse him. Uchiha Yan dare to tease the Patriarch, who gave you the courage?

But looking at Yan's face, which seemed ready for a mutual roasting, Fugaku decided to skip the topic.

"I went to the Hokage office building, Hokage-sama and Tsunade-sama asked me about the patrol area, and also about the identity of the patrol team last night."
