Ch. 347Will of Steel, Activate!
Uchiha Gin persuaded Uchiha Madara to open the Security Team’s recruitment to other clans and civilian ninjas, turning the appointments into a source of jobs and goodwill for Konoha. The hiring succeeded, but Tobirama Senju’s scheme to discredit the Uchiha failed, while Uchiha Gin collected the applicants’ gifts and left the Police Force to Uchiha Huoke.
- Uchiha Madara accepted responsibility for the prison and security departments, and Uchiha Gin urged him to recruit from other clans rather than let the Uchiha monopolize the Security Team.
- Uchiha Gin convinced Uchiha Madara to offer positions broadly, including to struggling clans such as the Shimura Clan.
- A Shimura Clan member found the recruitment flyer, and aspiring ninjas across Konoha applied to join the Police Force.
- Uchiha Huoke accepted application forms and gifts from recruits, while Tobirama Senju complained that Uchiha Madara’s open recruitment had undermined his plan to turn residents against the Uchiha.
- Shimura Kenichi learned that his clansmen had joined the Police Force and sold the clan’s pigs to fund gifts, then fainted when he heard the money had been spent.
- Uchiha Gin gave the applicants’ gifts to Uchiha Huoke and the other Police Force members, then left Huoke to run the department.
