Naruto: The Twin Kamui at the Start

"It's over, how am I supposed to explain this?" Liu Guang was suddenly speechless, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

Having been raised by her father to understand the ins and outs of officialdom, Chang Rui guessed eight or nine parts of the truth the moment she saw Liu Guang's state, and she barked sharply!

"Where is Su Bai! Speak!"

"He... he was taken away by the Ninja Enforcement Squad." Once Liu Guang finished, he collapsed into his chair, knowing he was finished.

"The Enforcement Squad!"

Chang Rui's expression shifted, losing its previous composure.

Upon hearing this, Su Jianhong and Lin Xiu'e felt as if the sky had collapsed!

Although they were just ordinary folk, they were well aware of the terrifying reputation of the Ninja Enforcement Squad!

It was said that the members there were the cream of the crop among Genin, and the squad leaders were unattainable Chunin!

As for the legendary captain of the Enforcement Squad... he was an elite Chunin, rumored to be not far from reaching the rank of Jonin, and was a titan among the powerful in Yang City!

"The Ninja Enforcement Squad? Director Liu, my son was only involved in a fight, why would the Enforcement Squad be alerted!" Su Jianhong was furious, no longer caring who was in front of him; he only cared about Su Bai now!

"Young lady, you must help Xiaobai, I'm begging you!"

Lin Xiu'e was so terrified she knelt down, and Chang Rui quickly helped her up!

"Auntie, what are you doing? Su Bai is my friend, I will find a way!"

"However, the Ninja Enforcement Squad is an organization independent of the Federation government. They don't listen to my father, so..."

Chang Rui didn't promise she could do it this time, speaking with hesitation.

"Even the government can't control them!" Su Jianhong and Lin Xiu'e were horrified.

They had been honest, law-abiding people their whole lives, having never met anyone higher than a factory manager. To them, Chang Rui's words were no different than a death sentence for Su Bai!

"What do we do? What do we do now?" Lin Xiu'e paced back and forth in a panic.

Chang Rui was also helpless, wondering if she should call her father and ask him to intervene.

At this moment.

"Auntie, don't worry yet." Xia Xueqing, who had remained silent until now, took Lin Xiu'e's hand. "I have an uncle who knows someone in the Enforcement Squad. I'll have him ask."

In truth, Xia Xueqing had never had any contact with the Enforcement Squad herself.

She had only once heard her second uncle, Xia Ling, mention that the captain of the Ninja Enforcement Squad seemed to be his former subordinate. She hadn't paid much attention at the time, and given that her uncle Xia Ling was one of the few Jonin in Yang City with countless subordinates, she couldn't remember them all.

"Thank you, thank you!" Lin Xiu'e cried, her face covered in tears, as if she had seen a savior.

Xia Xueqing shook her head, calmly took out her phone, and dialed Xia Ling's number.

However, she did not know that this single phone call would cause the very sky of Yang City to change!

Her uncle was one of the few Jonin in Yang City, not only the brother of the head of the Xia Family but also the true power behind the high-ranking officials of Yang City!

A single word from him could dismiss any government official!

Chapter 39: If I Say You Did It, You Did It

Yang City Ninja Enforcement Squad Headquarters.

A short, middle-aged man with a goatee held a phone, wearing a fawning smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, please rest assured, Brother Xia. I will handle this personally and give you an explanation!"

"Right, no matter who did it, I will not let them off!"

After the middle-aged man hung up, the smile vanished from his face!

He turned around, his expression dark, his body radiating a terrifying aura as he glared at the squad leaders in the room, gritting his teeth.

"Which one of you arrested a student named Su Bai?"

His name was Gongyi Xin, an elite Chunin, and his status in Yang City was absolutely top-tier!

In this corner of Yang City, there were fewer than three people who could make him this cautious, fawning, and fearful... but Xia Ling happened to be one of them, and the most terrifying one at that!

Xia Ling was not only the younger brother of the head of the Byakugan Clan, a powerful bloodline family in Yang City, but he was also one of the few super-experts in the city. Gongyi Xin had once been his subordinate!

The squad leaders looked at each other, confused as to why their captain was so enraged.

One squad leader stepped forward cautiously, looking uneasy.

"Captain, I was the one who arrested him."

"Where is he now?" Gongyi Xin asked with a cold face.

"In the Ninja Prison." After saying this, the captain quickly explained, "Captain, listen to me, Liu Guang asked me to arrest him, he said..."

BOOM!

Before the squad leader could finish, Gongyi Xin flashed in front of him and kicked him, sending him flying into the wall and leaving a massive crack!

"You bastard! Why aren't you taking me to get him immediately!"

"Cough, cough, yes... Captain!" The squad leader endured the pain and scrambled up from the ground, not daring to utter a word of complaint, and followed Gongyi Xin respectfully.

Inside a luxurious villa in Yang City, Liang Youde raised his glass, his bruised face plastered with a fawning smile.

"Cousin, thank you so much for your help with this matter."

"A mere trifle. He was just an ordinary person, not worth mentioning." Liang Ji picked up his glass, clinked it against his cousin's, and downed the drink in one gulp.

Ding-ding.

Just then, Liang Ji's phone rang. Seeing it was his trusted subordinate, he answered it casually.

"Hello?"

"What! Kekkei Genkai?"

"Are you certain?"

"I understand."

After hanging up, Liang Ji stared at Liang Youde with a grave expression, making the latter feel uneasy.

"Cou-cousin, what happened?"

"What happened?" Liang Ji let out a cold snort. "That Su Bai you asked me to deal with is a user of the Kekkei Genkai Sharingan. You tell me what happened!"

"What!"

Liang Youde shot to his feet, asking nervously, "Cousin, is what you said true? Is he really a Kekkei Genkai genius?"

"Nonsense! Would I lie about something this significant?"

"Great, just great. I've provoked a genius with a Kekkei Genkai. You've gotten me killed, damn it!"

Furious, Liang Ji smashed his wine glass against Liang Youde's face, filled with deep regret.

If he had known earlier that this useless cousin of his wanted him to target a Kekkei Genkai genius, he never would have agreed to it!

This was a Kekkei Genkai; as long as they didn't die young, their future achievements would be limitless!

Liang Youde collapsed onto the floor, muttering to himself.

"It's over... The Federation values geniuses above all else. What if he takes revenge on me?"

"Cousin, Cousin!" He scrambled over to Liang Ji, clutching his leg and pleading, "Cousin, you have to save me!"

Liang Ji was incensed. This useless cousin had no other skills, but his ability to stir up trouble was immense. Now, he had even dragged Liang Ji into a difficult spot!

He wanted nothing more than to skin Liang Youde alive to vent his frustration.

However, remembering that his aunt had only this one son and had entrusted him to look after the boy before she passed away... his rage could only turn into helplessness.

Fortunately, the target hadn't fully matured yet and was only a Genin. With his own influence, he could still manage the situation. Liang Ji spoke to Liang Youde with a stern expression.

"While the situation hasn't escalated too far, go and apologize to that Su Bai immediately. Remember, your attitude must be sincere, understand?"

"Understood, understood!" Liang Youde scrambled up from the floor, all other thoughts vanishing. Now, his only goal was to find Su Jianhong and beg for his forgiveness!

Ding-ding!

At that moment, Liang Ji's phone rang again.

He was already agitated and didn't want to answer, but when he saw the caller ID, his face changed drastically!

Caller—City Lord Wen!

The City Lord.

He was the highest-ranking official of the Federation in every base city, holding both military and political power, with authority even greater than the mayor!

"City Lord Wen? Hello, hello!"

"Haha, what brings you to call me? If you have any instructions, just say the word, and I will certainly carry them out!" Liang Ji put on a smiling face, nodding and bowing as he answered the phone.

As a businessman, although he was wealthy and considered a person of status in Yang City—even on brotherly terms with the police chief Liu Guang—he was riding high!

But in front of City Lord Wen... he wasn't even worth a fart.

If City Lord Wen wanted to help him get rich, a single suggestion could benefit him for a lifetime, but if he wanted to suppress him, a single word could bankrupt him overnight!

It could be said that City Lord Wen held Liang Ji's lifeblood in his hands.

There was a moment of silence on the line, followed by a single sentence.

"Liang Ji, look to your own conduct."

Beep, beep...

City Lord Wen hung up the phone, leaving Liang Ji completely bewildered.

City Lord Wen warned me personally?

Told me to look to my own conduct?

Who exactly did I provoke?

Why has the sky fallen on me!

Just then, several police officers burst through the door. A middle-aged officer leading the team walked up to Liang Ji and said with an expressionless face.

"Liang Ji, your bribery of Liu Guang has been exposed. Furthermore, we have uncovered evidence of your tax evasion, exploitation of workers, and the sale of counterfeit goods. Come with us now."

"Click!"

A police officer immediately stepped forward to cuff Liang Ji's hands, and the middle-aged officer then turned his gaze toward Liang Youde.

"Your involvement in running gambling tables and forcing young women into sexual relations has also been exposed. Cuff him!"

"I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"

"I admit I ran gambling tables, but I never forced any young women!" Liang Youde struggled violently, his face full of panic!

Liang Ji, however, seemed to realize something and offered a bitter smile.

"Cousin, stop struggling. If those people say you did it, then even if you didn't, you did. Do you understand?"

He knew very well that he must have offended someone of immense power this time!

Tax evasion, exploitation of workers, bribing Liu Guang?

Heh, which big boss doesn't do these things?

Or rather, which big boss could reach their position without doing these things?

These were merely pretexts for an arrest; the real reason behind this was that someone was out to get them.

Liang Ji looked back at his luxurious villa and sighed.

A second ago, he was an elite of society, an object of flattery, yet the next second, he had become a prisoner... This society is truly laughable.

Hearing his cousin's words, Liang Youde's face turned ashen. He let the two officers cuff him, his heart filled with boundless regret...
