"Whoever reports who has bought women, I will not kill them, but the person reported must die." Uchiha Kō's voice was indifferent.
Those who know him well understand that Uchiha Kō is currently in a state of rage, a state he hasn't shown in the last three years.
His reappearance now sends chills down everyone's spine. Even Nara Rokumei closed his eyes, looked up at the sky and sighed, while comforting the Konoha women who had been abducted to Little River Ditch Village.
Those who had previously bought wives or worked in the matchmaking business felt a chill; their previous wives had either been killed or hidden away, unknown to these young girls.
Therefore, they were not very panicked. At this moment Uchiha Kō spoke, and his words were like a blow to their morale. They wavered, not believing that Uchiha Kō could know things from so far back.
As a result Uchiha Kō laughed. He gave Yamanaka Inoichi his Anbu, who nodded and immediately stepped forward, found someone, and began searching their memory.
As a result, he slapped the man, who coughed up blood and had his teeth knocked out!
Uchiha Kō said helplessly, "Inoichi!"
Yamanaka Inoichi immediately turned around and knelt on one knee. "Lord Hokage, this guy is the one who was born!"
Uchiha Kō nodded. "What happened? What made you so angry? Tell me loudly, so everyone can hear, especially Rock District Annin!"
Rock District Annin's expression changed, and they all looked at Yamanaka Inoichi. Yamanaka Inoichi sneered, "These people are just a bunch of good-for-nothings. They can't even manage their own village. They're a bunch of useless trash!"
Yamanaka Inoichi stood up and said, "Her name is Hatano Yui. She's the liaison between the village and the human traffickers. She bought more than forty girls for all the single men in the village."
"And the families who bought the girls include..." Before Yamanaka Inoichi could finish speaking, someone jumped out. "I'm reporting that the Shangjing Yun family bought a woman, and after she gave birth, they sold her to another family in the same village, a family named Inoue Kaze."
Two people were immediately reported, and their expressions changed. They were about to start cursing when Kakashi Hatake flashed his sword and beheaded them!
Thud! Thud! A perfectly healthy head fell to the ground, instantly causing panic among the crowd, blood splattering onto the faces of everyone present.
Seeing this, the villagers no longer harbored any illusions and began reporting each other. Uchiha Kō yawned, and the Anbu Ninja sprang into action, each unleashing their ultimate techniques. Even after so much peace in the Ninja World, they continued their training.
Now that they had the opportunity to show their skills, they naturally wouldn't miss it, and they were all eager to make their moves.
Soon, only the whistleblower and honest villagers who had never engaged in human trafficking remained in the village.
The whistleblowers breathed a sigh of relief, however... the Rock District ninja used Earth Release Ninjutsu, partly to demonstrate their abilities, and partly to prove to the Lord Hokage that they were not to be trifled with and could take action!
"You, you're not keeping your word!" the first person to report said, pointing at Uchiha Kō.
Uchiha Kō asked in confusion, "Did I break my promise? Did I kill them? Hmm? Look, in, my, eyes!"
The first person to report the incident had his pupils shrink. He pointed at Uchiha Kō, "You, you, you, you!" He was furious. According to Uchiha Kō, he did not kill them, and to avoid suspicion, the Konoha's Anbu Ninja did not take action; instead, it was Rock District Anbu ninjas who did it.
The next second, Kitsuchi unleashed a powerful punch, his Rock Fist Technique slamming into the head of the person who had reported him, causing red and white blood to spray out simultaneously. Yet, Kitsuchi remained expressionless.
A person with such disdain in their eyes deserves to die!
Uchiha Kō glanced at him but didn't speak. Instead, he led the way to Hatano Yui, his eyes flashing with murderous intent as he looked at the somewhat attractive woman.
However, he knew that this person was still useful; he would use her to contact the human traffickers and find their hiding place.
Thus, his Sharingan transformed into the Wheel-shaped Six-Tomoe Mangekyō. Hatano Yui Sharingan instant, Uchiha Kō, and her eyes went blank.
When she opened her eyes again, the image of Uchiha Kō Mangekyō Sharingan was reflected in them, and then slowly disappeared.
At this moment, Hatano Yui was completely controlled by Uchiha Kō's Mangekyō Sharingan and had become a slave. She would do whatever Uchiha Kō told her to do!
After completing all this Uchiha Kō looked at Yamanaka Inoichi: "When is the next deal?"
Yamanaka Inoichi immediately replied, "Tomorrow morning at 7 a. m., at the village entrance."
Uchiha Kō nodded, then looked at the villagers and said, "No one is allowed to leave the village before seven o'clock tomorrow. All electronic devices must be handed over! Anyone who disobeys will be executed, anyone who runs away from the village will be executed, and anyone who tips off the villagers will be executed!"
The manager took the lead in handing in his phone, and the others followed suit. Then, under Uchiha Kō's arrangement, they headed towards their own houses.
In the middle of the night, when everything should be quiet, a family released white doves.
The white dove flapped its wings, ready to fly away, but just as it took off, it was struck precisely by a Shuriken and brought down!
It cooed three times and then fell silent. The one who made the move was none other than Kakashi Hatake! Kakashi Hatake pigeon for a long time without saying a word. The Hokage was right after all; Hatano Yui Hata as Lord Hokage in this messenger mission!
This village was truly rotten to the core. He noted down the house of the informant and then left. The Lord Hokage had said not to alert the enemy, so he did not immediately kill the family.
Instead, he carried the dead carrier pigeon, cleaned up the scene, and ran towards where Uchiha Kō was resting. A moment later, Kakashi Hatake knelt on the ground, awaiting Uchiha Kō's orders.
Uchiha Kō glanced at Kakashi Hatake and then said to Hatake Sakumo beside him, "Like father, like son. The father is awesome, and the son is not bad either. To be able to kill a carrier pigeon with a single Shuriken strike in the night, I'm afraid even an average Jonin couldn't do that!"
Hatake Sakumo smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the Lord Hokage's leadership. Raising ninja salaries and even implementing scientific diets has significantly improved their night vision!"
Hatake Sakumo wasn't wrong; the stipends of the ninjas under the Uchiha Kō set a new record in Konoha's history, and various vitamins were also widely distributed to help ninjas maintain their health.
Most ninjas nowadays have decent night vision, and some can even see their surroundings clearly after adapting to the darkness. However, this ultimately depends on their individual training level and effort.
As for why Hatake Sakumo attributed the credit to Hokage Uchiha Kō, that's probably just the art of language!
Uchiha Kō laughed heartily, "Sakumo, you've become more tactful too! You weren't like this before!" Uchiha Kō looked at Hatake Sakumo, Hatake Sakumo smiled slightly, "I was too straightforward before. Now that I think about it, being a little more tactful isn't so bad!"
Uchiha Kō nodded, then patted Kakashi on the shoulder. "Keep working hard. I've seen your progress, Kakashi. In the future, when I develop an artificial Sharingan, I'll definitely give you one to make up for the deficiencies in your Lightning Release Ninjutsu."
Kakashi's eyes lit up, and he quickly cupped his hands in thanks, saying, "Thank you Lord Hokage!" He was quite interested in the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan, and he had a feeling that he should have a Sharingan.
At that moment, Obito Uchiha was having dinner with Rin at home in Konoha when he suddenly sneezed. This startled Nohara Rin: "Obito- kun, what's wrong?"
Obito Uchiha shook his head. "I don't know why, but I always feel like someone is talking about me!"
Nohara Rin chuckled, "No way! It must be because the weather's gotten cooler lately, and you've been training like crazy, your body just can't take it!"
Obito Uchiha nodded. "Perhaps!"
Little River Ditch Village
Uchiha Kō had a candle lit, then he removed the envelope tied to the pigeon's leg and unfolded it.
"The village is in danger, leave immediately!" There was no useful information on it, which made Uchiha Kō sneer. He hadn't expected these people to be so cautious!
Thinking of this, he looked at Yamanaka Inoichi: "Inoichi, is there really no way to find out where those people are hiding?"
Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head. "That group is very secretive. Every time Hatano Yui arrives at the village entrance, someone blindfolds her and then takes her to a cave."
"They only take off the blindfolds once they enter the cave. After selecting the girls, they use the same method to send Hatano Yui back to the village entrance, while also blindfolding the other girls and tying them up at the village entrance." Yamanaka Inoichi gritted his teeth.
Uchiha Kō nodded. It's normal. If they weren't so cautious, they might have been wiped out long ago. If they weren't so cautious, news of what happened in the village would have reached Rock District long ago, and they would have been doomed too!
"In that case, at seven o'clock tomorrow morning, everyone should refrain from making any rash moves. I will leave a clone behind and then control Hatano Yui to be taken to the cave as usual, while simultaneously planting the Flying Thunder God Mark on her!"
"When the time comes, I will launch a full-scale attack. You all need to keep a close watch on their movements. If you hear any noise, immediately rush towards the cave and seal off the cave exit! Make sure to wipe them all out!"
As Uchiha Kō gave the order, everyone present bowed and acknowledged it. Then Uchiha Kō told them to go back and rest, as they would be carrying out a mission the next day, and ensuring they were in top physical condition was the most important thing!
Next day
Uchiha Kō activated his Mangekyō Sharingan, controlling Hatano Yui to go to the village entrance ahead of time. Sure enough, just after seven o'clock, ninjas appeared, none of them wearing Forehead Protector.
However, by controlling Hatano Yui, Uchiha Kō could clearly feel the pulsation of Chakra within them.
Two Jonin? Uchiha Kō sat on his bed, pondering the origins of these ninjas!
