Shokumiji.
As a small restaurant famous for its delicious food, Shokumiji is very popular among the restaurants in Konoha.
Although the storefront is not very large, the stream of diners coming and going every day is endless.
Rumor has it that the owner of Shokumiji—
Uchiha Yuriko combined the powerful and meticulous observation skills of the Sharingan with cooking to create such delicious dishes.
It is precisely because of this that Shokumiji only operates in the evenings.
It was dinner time, and the small restaurant was already full of people.
Amidst a burst of noise, a loud bang of a table being slapped suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked over and saw two men reeking of alcohol shouting loudly: "Boss! Boss! Boss!"
Soon, Uchiha Yuriko, wearing a white apron, walked out from the back kitchen.
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
Although she had just come out of the kitchen, Uchiha Yuriko was very clean.
She had her hair in a bun and wore a white hat. Although she was middle-aged, her beautiful Face, coupled with her rising and falling chest, always attracted men's attention.
The two troublemaking men exchanged glances, a slightly lewd smile appearing on their Faces.
One of the men pointed to the empty wine glass on the table and said unhappily: "Boss, do you think the wine will pour itself into this old man's glass?"
Hearing this, Uchiha Yuriko's expression turned cold, but she still bent down and poured a glass of wine for the man.
"The shop is busy, and our hospitality has been lacking. Please bear with us."
"Wait!"
Seeing Uchiha Yuriko about to leave, the man who had just spoken became more demanding: "This old man has a good capacity for alcohol. One glass is not enough for me. I think you should stay and drink with us until we finish before you leave."
The man's companion echoed: "That's right, come on, come on, sit next to me!"
"Hahahahaha..." The two men's words caused a burst of laughter.
Uchiha Yuriko's expression gradually darkened as she stared at the two men in front of her without saying a word.
Just as she was about to act, a voice came from behind her.
"Yuriko, do you need any help?"
"Captain Rika?"
Seeing Uchiha Rika, Uchiha Yuriko immediately explained the whole story.
Uchiha Rika snorted coldly and said to his two subordinates behind him: "Take these two troublemakers to the Military Police Force."
"You wouldn't dare!"
Uchiha Rika sneered: "Today, I'll show you whether I dare or not."
"Wait a moment."
Two Anbu Ninja wearing masks suddenly appeared: "We, the Anbu, will take over this matter. You may leave."
Uchiha Rika was a little displeased: "This is just an ordinary public disturbance case. Our Military Police Force is perfectly capable of handling it."
The Anbu said indifferently: "We don't need to explain our actions to you. You just need to know that these two will be taken away by us."
"You!!!"
The Anbu's tough attitude made Uchiha Rika furious, but he had no choice.
As a direct unit led by the Hokage, the Anbu had always been an existence that no one in Konoha dared to provoke.
Seeing Uchiha Rika's silence, a triumphant smile appeared on the Faces of the two troublemaking men.
"What kind of prominent Ninja Clan? Never heard of it. A small Uchiha Clan, a bunch of guys who specialize in handling petty matters, actually dare to try and boss around us Anbu. What a dream!"
Upon hearing the man's words, Uchiha Rika's Face turned ugly.
These bastards, they publicly trampled on the dignity of their Uchiha Clan and the Military Police Force!
But to openly fight with the Anbu, he could not bear the responsibility.
"I didn't expect the Ninja of the Uchiha Clan to have such a day, softening up when they encounter the Anbu."
"This is how it should be, to prevent these guys from acting so arrogant all the time."
"A bunch of guys who only know how to put on airs, I've long been annoyed with them!"
Listening to the low whispers of the crowd, Uchiha Fugaku, who had just arrived, had his chest heaving violently.
To maintain the peace and order of the Village, the Uchiha Clan had always done its best. How could they say such things?!
"Fugaku, do you see? What is there to protect about such people?"
Uchiha Yuzuru finished speaking, pushed through the crowd, and walked in.
The scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan emitted a terrifying pressure, and the previously noisy crowd immediately quieted down.
The two stern Anbu exchanged glances and spoke in a deep voice: "Uchiha Yuzuru, what do you intend to do?"
Uchiha Yuzuru said indifferently: "I am going to exercise the authority of the Military Police Force."
"If you obstruct me, I don't mind arresting both of you as well."
One Anbu couldn't help but say: "No one can judge us except the Hokage."
"That's between me and the Hokage. Before that..." Uchiha Yuzuru took a step forward, "Are you going to scram or not?"
Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru's strong demeanor, the two Anbu exchanged glances, and finally disappeared in silence.
Interfering for friends they knew was the most they could do.
If this matter really escalated, they would definitely Face severe punishment.
Moreover, if it came to a fight, they were not confident that they could defeat these two guys with the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in front of them.
Watching their Anbu teammates leave, the two troublemaking Ninja immediately said: "Wait a moment, we know..."
Bang!
Bang!
Before they could finish speaking, Uchiha Yuzuru had already punched off their jaws.
Then he kicked and broke one leg of each of the two men.
"Take them away!"
"Yes!"
The screams of the two troublemakers gradually faded, and all the diners in Shokumiji also quieted down.
Uchiha Yuzuru laughed: "See? This is called powerful fists and feet, and villagers with attitude."
"First hit the mouth to prevent begging for mercy, then hit the legs to prevent escape."
"In the future, when dealing with ruffians, you should use my method."
Uchiha Fugaku and the others all laughed in amusement.
Then, Uchiha Rika patted Uchiha Yuzuru's shoulder heavily: "Good job, kid, I really didn't misjudge you."
He had almost been angered to death by those guys just now, but he didn't expect Yuzuru to be so bold, not giving the Anbu any Face at all.
Although this guy often made him angry, he now found him more and more pleasing to the eye.
Uchiha Yuzuru smiled: "Then Mikoto's matter..."
"I still have to patrol." Uchiha Rika immediately turned and left.
"The father-in-law is not that easy to deal with." Uchiha Yuriko covered her mouth and laughed: "Yuzuru, I've caused you trouble."
Uchiha Yuzuru waved his hand: "We're buddies, Aunt Yuriko has always taken good care of me."
"You brat, talking nonsense." Uchiha Yuriko chided, then said, "I still have to go back to work. I'll treat you to a meal when I'm free."
After Uchiha Yuriko left, Uchiha Fugaku whispered: "Yuzuru, those two troublemakers must also be Anbu Ninja, otherwise they would never dare to be so arrogant."
"The Hokage's faction is getting more and more out of line. What do you plan to do?"
Seeing Uchiha Fugaku looking impatient, Uchiha Yuzuru asked: "How is the list I asked you to collect a while ago?"
"The radicals and conservatives have basically all been separated."
"That's good." Uchiha Yuzuru waved his hand: "Tonight, notify all Military Police Force squad leaders to come to Nanga Shrine. We will hold a secret Clan meeting!"
