Uzumaki Jun did not know whether the book he gave to Danzo would be useful. That book did not contain any strange content. It merely discussed some workplace survival and development techniques, such as being open-minded, modest. Striving for benefits while charging forward, targeting superiors, and other motivational words...
As for whether Danzo would improve after reading this, hmph.
A person who even wanted to dig out his good friend's eyes and his good friend's son's eyes...
How could he possibly reform.
Uzumaki Jun just wanted Danzo to become smarter, more modest, and not be constantly fooled by Hiruzen Sarutobi. He needed to learn how to win people over.
Only then would he have a chance to kill him and become the village leader...
As for the outcome, whether it would turn into a large-scale palace intrigue drama in Konoha, these had nothing to do with Uzumaki Jun.
Right now, Uzushiogakure's goal was to deal with the remaining spies. Of course, these spies were quite easy to handle. As long as their chakra was sealed, they could just notify their village leaders to bring money to ransom them.
After all, Uzushiogakure was...
A nation that treated prisoners well.
As for whether their village leaders would come to ransom them, or what would happen to them after they returned...
These had nothing to do with Uzushiogakure.
They just needed to remember that Uzushiogakure treated prisoners well and was a nation filled with love and peace.
And if no one came to ransom them in the end...
These ninjas might just end up becoming Konoha's.
"What's going on?" Uzumaki Jun frowned as he looked at the noisy scene before him.
Hadn't he instructed the Uzu-nin to enforce the law civilly and not cause trouble.
They just needed to take the people away. Why was there such a crowd gathered here.
"Lord Jun." A Uzu-nin noticed Jun suddenly appearing beside him and respectfully said, "There's a bit of trouble."
Uzumaki Jun nodded and asked, "Just arrest them directly. If they resist, then just..."
Resisting the law, what else could they do. Did they think they were in Konoha.
"It's just..." The Uzu-nin hesitated for a moment before sighing, unsure how to explain.
"Forget it, I'll see for myself." Uzumaki Jun grew curious. "Everyone, make way."
What exactly was going on here.
...
"Step aside." Yōya grabbed Hanaka's arm, trying to pull the woman shielding him away, and said helplessly, "Hanaka, trust me. Nothing will happen."
"Madam, we are Uzu-nin, here under Lord Jun's orders to arrest a spy." A Uzu-nin said with a headache. "We hope you will not resist the law."
This was the first time they had encountered such a situation. The Uzu-nin had no idea what to do.
Hadn't Lord Jun instructed them to enforce the law civilly and not disturb the people. Otherwise...
They would have already taken action.
"No, Yōya is not a spy." Hanaka said with tears in her eyes, resolutely. "You must have made a mistake."
"If it's a mistake, we will release him." The Uzu-nin quickly explained. "We will never wrong an innocent person, nor will we let any bad person go."
"So please step aside."
However...
"No." Hanaka still shook her head firmly, raising her head to look at the Uzu-nin with determination. "I will never let anyone take Yōya away."
"This..." The Uzu-nin looked at each other, unsure what to do.
After all, this was their first time enforcing the law.
If it were like before...
They wouldn't be so troubled.
"Hanaka, step aside." Yōya smiled at his wife, his eyes filled with love, and said, "Nothing will happen to me. Just wait for me at home."
But...
Hanaka turned her head and silently looked at him, not saying anything, just silently looking at him...
Yōya suddenly felt uneasy for some reason and averted his gaze. "I, I..."
In the end, he said nothing.
He felt afraid, worried...
He...
Did not know what to do.
"Madam, I will say this one last time. Please step aside. If your husband is innocent, we will definitely release him." The Uzu-nin said with frustration.
What kind of mess was this.
They were still single, and this spy had already charmed one of their Uzushiogakure citizens.
Was there no justice.
Yet...
Hanaka still did not move aside, looking at the Uzu-nin with determination...
She would not yield.
"In that case." The Uzu-nin's tone became stern. "Obstructing the law is a crime."
"You will also be arrested under the same charges."
Hearing this, Hanaka froze for a moment, but her eyes still held resolve...
She would not move.
If that was really the case...
As long as she could be with Yōya, then...
It would be fine.
But Yōya panicked. He did not want Hanaka to suffer any harm. He quickly pulled Hanaka aside and was about to speak when he sternly shouted, "Shut up."
Then, he knelt down, bending forward until his head touched the ground.
"I apologize. I will go with you. Please spare Hanaka."
"She..."
"Knows nothing. It was me..." Yōya's eyes showed a trace of reluctance, but for Hanaka's sake, he firmly said, "Who deceived her."
"Yōya." Hanaka, hearing Yōya's words, froze for a moment before tears fell. She grabbed his clothes. "You didn't, you didn't deceive me. I, I... I knew."
But Yōya pushed Hanaka's hand away and said indifferently, "What do you know, you foolish..."
Before he could finish, Yōya was punched to the ground.
"Yōya, you bastard." A young man sat on Yōya, punching him repeatedly in the face. "You bastard, how could you treat Hanaka like this. I, I... I'll beat you to death, you bastard."
Yōya initially wanted to fight back, but upon seeing who it was, he lowered his hand and did nothing.
"Brother Keita, it's not Yōya's fault. Stop hitting him, stop hitting him." But Hanaka could not bear it and tried to pull Keita away with tears in her eyes. "Stop hitting him."
But...
Keita continued punching Yōya in the face, cursing as he hit.
The Uzu-nin, however, said nothing, watching with great interest. Serves you right for coming to spy but ending up flirting. Hit him harder.
Hit him harder in the face.
Uzumaki Jun, on the other hand, felt a headache coming on. How had such a dogblood incident happened in just a few months.
He glanced at the woman's stomach...
This made it even more dogblood.
But what should he do.
This was the first time enforcing the law, and they were already facing a conflict between emotion and the law.
"Lord Jun." Feeling someone pat his shoulder, the Uzu-nin who had been watching the show turned around irritably. Upon seeing who it was, he immediately became respectful and made way.
This matter should be left to Lord Jun to handle.
"Alright, stop." Seeing Yōya's already unrecognizable face, Uzumaki Jun grabbed Keita's fist and said helplessly, "If you keep hitting him, he might die."
Keita froze, looked up, and quickly said respectfully, "Lord Jun."
Then, he immediately knelt down and lowered his head. "Please do not arrest Yōya. He has done nothing to harm Uzushiogakure. I, I, I..."
But he did not know how to continue.
...
He should have known. This burly man had hit Yōya so fiercely just to plead for leniency.
Uzumaki Jun glanced at Hanaka's stomach again. What a headache.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Perhaps...
