City Management Squad

"Lord Third Hokage, Uchiha Yo reporting for duty." Uchiha Yo looked at the Third Hokage seated before him. Still in his prime, the Third retained the bearing of the Shinobi Bear. His face was kind, yet his presence was imposing.

"Oh, it's Yo. Not bad. Do you want to join the Guard Force or a regular squad?" The Third scrutinized Uchiha Yo. "Reporting to the Hokage, sir. I am willing to serve in the Guard Force, contribute to Konoha, protect the peace of the village, and fulfill my duty," Uchiha Yo answered in a deep voice.

"Mm, good. The Guard Force has always been the Uchiha's first choice. With so many clansmen there to guide you, I believe you'll adapt more quickly. But remember, no matter where you are, you are part of Konoha. The Will of Fire—wherever leaves dance, flames shall burn; the firelight will illuminate the village, and leaves will sprout anew. Go report to the Guard Force." "Yes, Lord Third Hokage." After Uchiha Yo left, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag from his pipe and slowly exhaled. "Owl, have Elder Danzo come here." An Anbu appeared, then vanished with the Body Flicker Technique.

As Uchiha Yo walked down the street, watching people hurry past on both sides, he gradually sank into thought. Hiruzen Sarutobi definitely wasn't the radiant, righteous, kind old grandpa next door portrayed in the original work. During a war, the Second Hokage would have had to be insane to choose someone like that as Hokage. Hiruzen Sarutobi was probably a master of political maneuvering who cherished his reputation. Danzo, his rival, simply couldn't compare to him in schemes, and in the later stages, he had become nothing but a scapegoat while still dreaming of becoming Hokage. What kind of Hokage used Izanagi as a Substitute Technique? Too weak~ The other two had completely become Hiruzen Sarutobi's puppets. I want to do this, but I won't say it. I'll make you say it, while I still have to pretend to be righteous. Then, in the end, I'll reluctantly compromise for Konoha's interests. A true master! I always saw myself as a prophet and viewed everything through the lens of the original work. Looks like I need to be more cautious from now on—especially around our dear grandpa, the great Third Hokage.

"Yo, little Yo, you're here to report! This is my son. He's here to report today too. Don't let his young appearance fool you—he is Konoha's youngest genin. I've trained him since he was little, but he still has a long way to go. Hahaha. Let's have a few drinks later." Looking at the handsome, chatty middle-aged man, Uchiha Yo smiled. Whatever. I'll take things one step at a time.

"This is your squad leader, Uchiha Ming. He'll also be your instructor for your upcoming training. Ming was specially transferred from the clan. He is an elite jonin with a three-tomoe Sharingan. Your other two teammates are Uchiha En, the eldest elder's grandson, and Uchiha Retsu, the third elder's direct grandson. Your squad will mainly focus on training, and your patrol area will be Food Street. All right, Ming, take him to meet his new teammates." With that, Uchiha Nobunaga turned and left.

"Follow me." After saying that, Uchiha Ming quickly departed. Without exchanging another word, they arrived at the Uchiha clan's training ground. Two boys were whispering to each other there. They were presumably Uchiha Yo's teammates, Uchiha Retsu and Uchiha En.

"Let's introduce ourselves first. It'll make things easier when we act together in the future. My name is Uchiha Ming, an Uchiha elite jonin with a three-tomoe Sharingan. I specialize in swordsmanship, Fire Release, Lightning Release, and genjutsu. My hobbies are collecting famous swords and practicing swordsmanship. What I hate is losing to women. My dream is to become the world's greatest swordsman. All right, your turn." Holy crap, are you from the One Piece cast? Damn it, are you Zoro?

"My name is Uchiha En, a genin. I have yet to awaken the Sharingan. I specialize in Fire Release and Earth Release. I like food, and I like cooking even more. I hate wasting food. My dream is to become strong and eat delicious food from all over the world." No doubt about it. This is Sanji!

"Uchiha Retsu. I haven't awakened the Sharingan. Genin. I specialize in Lightning Release and Earth Release. I like sleeping and hate troublesome things. My dream is to live out my life peacefully." Damn it, are you from the Nara clan? Shikamaru, did you get reincarnated too?

"My name is Uchiha Yo. I have yet to awaken the Sharingan. Genin. I specialize in Fire Release, Wind Release, Lightning Release, and one Earth Release ninjutsu. I enjoy training. I hate people and things that hurt my family. My dream is to become stronger and become a ninja capable of protecting my family."

"Very good. Then I hereby announce the establishment of Guard Force Third Battalion, Tenth Squad. Let's go eat barbecue. Starting tomorrow, you'll face training so brutal you'll beg for death but be unable to die. Hahaha, enjoy your last beautiful moments!"

And so began his career as city management...
