There was only one class on Friday afternoon.
It was only three-thirty when school let out.
The two brothers did not choose to go home, heading straight for the Konoha Military Police Force instead.
Although Fugaku had only "invited" him, how could he not bring his little brother along when there was an opportunity to fleece someone?
He was the big brother, after all!
"Don't be nervous when you see the clan head later; he's very easy to talk to, you know?"
"Got it!" Aside from Grandma's cane and his big brother's iron fist, Obito really hadn't been afraid of anyone.
As they neared the Konoha Military Police Force, the two saw Shisui sitting on a bench, hugging his ninja academy textbook and studying.
It might be hard for some to believe, but Shisui, who hadn't even reached school age yet, was actually Obito's after-school tutor...
Heaven knows just how ridiculous Obito's "tail-ender" attributes truly were.
He sat next to Rin Nohara, who was tied for first in theory exams.
And he had a little genius like Shisui self-studying and then helping him with remedial lessons.
Even with all that, Obito still managed to score two points lower than Might Guy on exams!
"Hmm... you're already reading next semester's material?" Ruohuo's expression was a bit strange.
"Ah, Big Brother, Brother Obito, you're here!" Shisui looked up, his little face full of excitement.
The CBD brothers were fully assembled; today's mission was to fleece Fugaku.
Konoha Military Police Force.
As one of Konoha's iconic buildings, its history was not much shorter than that of the Hokage Building.
It was also one of the few clan buildings, aside from Naka Shrine, that had never moved with the clan members.
The Uchiha Clan crest hung high above, with the Konoha Military Police Force header below it.
The building as a whole didn't feel as grand or imposing as the Hokage Building to Ruohuo, but it was sufficiently solemn.
Uchiha members wearing standard Konoha vests and police department sashes walked in and out, giving off the distinct impression of a ninja world police headquarters.
Ruohuo vaguely sensed a gaze.
It came from the top of the building, through a reflective window.
"Let's go, time to learn ninjutsu from the clan head."
At Ruohuo's command, he led his two little followers toward the police department.
Just then, a middle-aged man with a weary face but full of rage walked toward them.
He was muttering curses, looking back every three steps, seemingly holding a great grudge against the Konoha Military Police Force.
"So what if I had a few drinks? I didn't cause trouble on purpose, yet they detained me for an entire night!"
"These hateful Uchiha..."
"Sooner or later, I'm going to burn this wretched place to the ground... Ouch!"
The middle-aged man hadn't been watching his feet; he tripped and fell to the ground, letting out a yelp before glaring angrily at the few brats nearby.
"It hurts... you damn brats, don't you have eyes when you walk?"
No sooner had the words left his mouth—
Bang!
Obito lunged forward with a sprinting knee strike, slamming directly into the middle-aged man's forehead!
Before the man could even crawl up, he was knocked back to the ground. Obito then maintained a mount position, glaring at the guy as if he were having a stress reaction!
"Don't—you—dare—insult—my—brother!"
Don't let Obito's simple-mindedness fool you; when it mattered, he was the real deal!
"Brother Obito is so cool!" Little Shisui waved his small hands in excitement from the side.
Ruohuo nodded inwardly, quite satisfied with his two followers.
For Obito to have such awareness, his years of cultivation had not been in vain.
"Alright, Obito, let this gentleman go; he didn't mean it," Ruohuo said calmly.
"Hmph!" Obito glared at the middle-aged man, who hadn't yet recovered, before standing up and walking away.
Ruohuo walked up to the man, crouched down halfway, patted his face, and asked with a smile, "Sir, are you alright?"
"My brother didn't mean it; he's still young. Could you not hold it against him?"
The middle-aged man had recovered slightly, looking at the kid before him with terror in his eyes. Where had his earlier arrogance gone?
"I... I'm fine," the middle-aged man said weakly.
"Then let's talk about my business." The smile vanished from Ruohuo's face.
"You just kicked me and gave us a good scolding."
"My foot tells me it's in great pain and requires one hundred thousand ryo in medical expenses."
"My younger brothers are also heartbroken; without one hundred thousand ryo each for a psychiatrist, I'm afraid they'll be left with psychological trauma."
"One hundred thousand plus three hundred thousand, that makes four hundred thousand ryo."
"Nani!?"
The middle-aged man was on the verge of a breakdown. "Kid, is your math..."
"Shut up, I'm not done yet!"
Ruohuo slapped the man to cut off his retort, then pointed at the Konoha Military Police Force building behind him and continued his accusations:
"Setting that aside for a moment, I just heard you make some dangerous remarks."
"For instance, saying things like burning down the Konoha Military Police Force... that is indeed something you said, right?"
Having just taken a heavy slap, the middle-aged man was still dazed, and he nodded instinctively, mixed with terror.
"That settles it then!"
"The Konoha Military Police Force is a vital institution for maintaining order in Konoha, and the prison inside holds the most heinous of criminals!"
Ruohuo's expression turned icy!
"I now have reason to suspect that you intend to disrupt the order of Konoha and launch a terrorist attack against the village!"
Swish—!
A bright light shone onto the terrified middle-aged man's face. He instinctively closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw the devilish boy holding a kunai high above his head!
"You wretched spy, DIE!!!!"
"AH!!!!"
When a person is in a state of extreme panic, they don't remember to defend themselves.
Screaming is the only reaction!
"Shimatta!" Fugaku, who was watching the show from his top-floor office, had his pupils shrink. Why did he suddenly pull out a kunai?
"Chotto matte!!!"
Several Uchiha rushed out with clear roles: one tackled Ruohuo, one shielded the civilian, and another snatched the kunai from Ruohuo's hand!
"What are you doing! This guy is a wretched spy who was just insulting the Uchiha!"
Ruohuo transformed into an enraged child, struggling and resisting wildly!
"Let me go!!!"
"Let go of my brother!!!"
"Let go of Brother Ruohuo!!!"
Obito entered a stress-induced state again, and Shisui also came howling toward the two Uchiha!
The scene became extremely chaotic!
Ruohuo didn't forget to call out to his two little brothers, "Don't worry about me! Kill this piece of trash first!"
"Kill him!!!"
Obito and Shisui decisively changed direction, but they were each lifted up by a large hand.
"Everyone, calm down!"
Fugaku, who had jumped directly from the window, shouted loudly!
Shisui was startled and immediately behaved.
But Obito feared nothing!
"Let me go! My brother told me to kill him!!!"
Obito struggled frantically and roared at the top of his lungs: "KILL—HIM!!!"
Fugaku felt a massive headache coming on.
But just as he was about to help Obito force a sense of calm, the flash of scarlet in Obito's eyes left Fugaku frozen in place...
No way.
Are children these days all awakening their eyes like this?
