As Shin noticed that the person who arrived was Hyuga Kuroto, his expression darkened.

It is rumored in the Uchiha Clan that Kuroto is the only Hyuga who is not easy to mess with. There have been several instances of Uchiha confronting Kuroto for various reasons, and each time they have suffered defeat.

And this isn’t all, because Hyuga Kuroto and Uchiha Shisui have a close friendship, therefore, if the Uchiha tries to mess with Kuroto, they have to bear Shisui’s anger too, this is why, upon encountering him, the Uchiha generally restrains themselves and tries not to offend him.

Arriving at the scene of conflict, Kuroto looked around.

He could see that although several high-ranking shinobi were present at the scene, no one was willing to take action and stop the Konoha Military Police Force from harassing Ryuma. Seeing this, he thought, ‘As I thought… Shinichi’s return will indeed cause some problems… For one… with the return of Shinichi, the Uchiha Clan has become more daring.’

With the return of Shinichi, the number of Mangekyou Sharingan users has increased, and so has the strength of the Uchiha Clan.

With the increased strength, the ambitions have increased as well… or perhaps it would be better to say that the ambitions that were buried so far have been unearthed again.

‘Sigh… do I really have to deal with this?’ thought Kuroto with a sigh.

Kuroto really doesn’t want to deal with anything unnecessary at this point since most of his attention is focused on the creation of Rinnegan. But he also realized that he can’t allow the Uchiha Clan to continue as they are, otherwise, it will affect the political situation in Konoha, and that’s not what he wanted to see either.

‘It appears I will have to do something about these rising ambitions as well… such a troublesome thing.’ Thought Kuroto with a helpless expression.

After making up his mind, Kuroto once again looked around, then he looked at Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Enji, and said, “Despite being a member of the Konoha Military Police Force, are you not aware of the village’s security regulations?”

Uchiha Shin was confused, “What are you talking about?” and said, “I broke no security regulation, it’s that guy… he attacked me… a member of the Konoha Military Police Force… and disturbed our work of maintaining security in Konoha… by helping him, you are doing same… do you want to come for questioning too?”

Kuroto shook his head, “No… you are the one who broke regulations… You engaged in a meaningless conflict in front of Konoha Ninja Academy and disrupted the teaching environment of the school… The children are affected because of your meaningless fight… How are you going to explain your actions?”

Shin was taken aback by Kuroto’s accusation. He looked at his feet, then in the direction of Konoha Ninja Academy which is a few blocks away with a confused expression, and asked, “In front of Konoha Ninja Academy? Are you out of your mind?”

Seeing Kuroto confronting Uchiha Shin, Kakashi, and the others decided to step in. Kakashi appeared beside Kuroto, and whispered, “Kuroto, don’t mess around.”

Asuma nodded, and said, “Just take that guy and leave… don’t try to confront them, now the situation is more complicated than it used to be. In this situation, we don’t want to confront the Uchiha Clan.”

Kuroto said with a smile, “Don’t worry guys… I know what I am doing.” Then he looked in Shin’s direction and said, “It seems that you have no explanation… In that case, there is only one thing to do.”

Leaving such words, Kuroto disappeared with a body flicker.

Boom!

Before anyone could react, Kuroto appeared in front of Shin and punched the guy.

Nobody expected Kuroto would suddenly take such an action.

“You…?” Thanks to his activated Sharingan, Shin was able to keep track of Kuroto’s movement, and subconsciously leaped back to dodge his punch.

However, as he leaped into the air, Shin noticed the smirk on Kuroto’s face and realized that something is wrong, ‘Not good!’

Poof!

His doubts were proven right as the figure of Kuroto in front of him exploded into white smoke.

Shin knew that the attack earlier was just a faint, and the next attack would be coming soon, however, it was already too late as he felt a chop at the back of his neck and lost consciousness.

As the white smoke cleared, the figure of Kuroto holding the unconscious Uchiha Shin by the collar appeared in front of everyone.

“……” Everyone was silent and looked at Kuroto with different expressions.

Some were taken aback, some surprised, some admired, and some panicked.

Kakashi and Asuma looked at each with worried expressions. They didn’t expect that Kuroto of all people would make such a bold move and attack a Jonin of the Uchiha Clan.

“He… he did it so easily?” Ryuma looked at Kuroto in surprise and shock.

From the previous confrontation, Ryuma realized that his strength is not enough to win against Uchiha Shin, and now that he saw Kuroto deal with the person in just two moves, he couldn’t be more surprised.

Not caring about anyone’s reaction, Kuroto stared at Uchiha Enji, and said, “You there…”

Enji was taken aback and took a step back, “W… what?”

“Tell your Patriarch to come to the Konoha Ninja Academy and take him…” Leaving such words, Kuroto dragged Shin and went back to the academy.

Everyone looked at Kuroto dragging Shin, but no one dared to take a step forward and stop him. Not Uchiha Enji… not the rest of the crowd including Kakashi and the others.

All they could do was look at Kuroto’s disappearing back with various expressions.

Some were shocked, some dazed, some happy, and some worried.

Asuma looked at Kuroto’s back and said with a sigh, “Sigh… This is going to be troublesome to deal with.”

Kakashi nodded with a complicated expression, “Hm.”

Knowing Kuroto, Kakashi knew that Kuroto would have definitely thought this through. But Kakashi couldn’t figure out Kuroto’s thoughts.

What’s more troublesome is that Kuroto asked for the Uchiha Patriarch to come, not the captain of the Konoha Military Police Force, or the deputy Captain of the Konoha Military Police Force.

So, now things have become more complicated.

Kakashi sighed and said to Asuma, “Let’s go and inform Hokage-sama… We’ll have to figure out a way to deal with this issue.”
