Chapter 82: Victim
Hiruzen watched Fujita stomp out of his office, his shoulders tight with anger after being rejected by Hiruzen. The door shut, leaving Hiruzen in silence, he turned back to the sales reports on his desk and only sighed. Aside from pushing businesses to change their models and products, there was no simple fix for the nobles problem.
Fujita had come not because he didn't have other method, it was because his brothels, casino and wineries were far more profitable than ordinary trade, a single well-run establishment of casino or brothel could bring in ten times the revenue of a rice merchant or a market stall.
Convincing proprietors to swap high-margin vices for humble staples was asking them to throw away profits that kept whole households afloat. If a noble monthly takings totaled twenty million ryo, would he agree to reduce that to a hundred thousand simply because of Uzumaki Clan new product? Of course not.
That was why Fujita had stormed into the Hokage office, he needed Hiruzen to use his authority. But Hiruzen had offered the same alternative that his secretary had told him before, it was to change the winery, brothel and casino into food merchant. It was a good advice, but compared to brothel or casino, the profit is not very high, the first thing because they cannot sell the rice too high, there are also many competition. Unlike winery and brothel, they are attracting wealthy people to spend more on them.
It all because of the nerve-gear scrolls, this single produce had reshaped demand and created new livelihoods. To crush them it is not easy because the people behind this shop.
It is not something that nobles like him can easily touch, behind the shop, it was backed by Uzumaki and Uchiha clan. There is also Lady Mito, wife of the First Hokage who her voice are respected. That made the task politically explosive. If Fujita people tried sabotage or legal bullying, they'd not only anger two powerful clans but might also bring bad thing to them, Uchiha is part of police force.
Hiruzen rubbed his temples. He had always believed law and leadership should protect the weak, not the wealthy. But without this wealthy people, the economy would fall but fighting the clan could ignite clan resentment, destabilize trade agreements, and force the village into a civil war. He folded the report closed and straightened. There were no easy answers, only hard choices and the hardest part was finding one that would not create worse harm than the problem it sought to solve.
---Reina POV---
Reina had once been an ordinary girl from a poor district on the eastern side of Konoha, the kind of place where people live happily though they are in poor condition, they are not a ninja just a normal civillian. She never imagined her life would unravel so quickly or so cruelly.
Her father, once a hardworking man, had fallen into the vicious spiral of gambling. It began with small win then losses, then debts, then desperation. One night, cornered by debt collectors and blinded by fear, he made the unforgivable choice, he sold his daughter.
Her mother had fought, clawing and screaming to stop him, but desperation crushed her strength. By the time dawn arrived, Reina was gone, and her father overwhelmed by guilt and unable to bear the weight of his own choices, spiraled further until depression consumed whatever was left of him. He died months later. But Reina never learned about it, she only knew she had been abandoned by her father and her mother try to stop but failed.
The brothel owners saw her beauty the moment she arrived. That alone make her living like hell.
For six long months, Reina lived a nightmare that never seemed to end. She learned quickly that suffering came in many forms. Some customers had belly stomachs and greasy hair, their breath thick with the stench of cheap wine. Some had missing teeth, rotting gums, or foul-smelling mouths that made her gag and vomited. There were men with rough hands, trembling bodies, or cold, dead eyes. Every day, every hour, Reina felt herself sinking deeper into filth she could never wash away.
She tried to escape more than once. Once by climbing the window and trying to jump, once by refusing food for days. But the brothel was built to prevent escape. Guards watched them. Seals locked their doors. There was nowhere to run.
She began to believe she would never be clean again.
But then… one strange week changed everything.
The customers stopped coming.
At first the girls were confused. Then they became afraid. A silent brothel meant danger no income, no food, no mercy. The guards muttered among themselves and the brothel owners paced nervously. Rumors flew like wild birds, small and terrifying. One night, Reina overheard a guard whispering that the Uzumaki Clan had "crossed a line," though none of the workers could guess what that meant.
For two days, the brothel operated in eerie silence.
On the third day, everything collapsed.
The brothel could no longer sustain itself. With no customers, no income, and sudden pressure from unseen forces, the manager panicked. The girls were told they would be "sold off" to new households as wives, servants, anything to clear the books. Reina felt numb. Trading one cage for another did not feel like salvation. Especially when she saw the man she was supposedly sold to a short, ugly civilian with uneven eyes and a crooked jaw.
Fear clawed up her throat.
That night, a few of the girls tried to escape into the forest behind the district. Reina followed them, but before they made it far, the ugly man appeared again… but they are being captured again.
The owner said they swear will make sure that the one who buy them will be ugly and abusive and the next day they are being sold to an ugly person.
But what shocked them, the appearance of the buyer changed and they introduced themselves as Uchiha and Uzumaki Clan
Reina and hundreds of girl froze in shock.
Before panic could rise, a red-haired kunoichi approached, her presence calm them down.
What followed was an explanation that made Reina knees weaken and make her heart feel happy. The Uzumaki Clan and the Uchiha Clan, disgusted by the brothel system, had worked together to dismantle it from the shadows. Brothels were legal under the law, protected by nobles, and woven into the economy. They could not be shut down openly. So the two clans chose another method, starve the system until it collapsed. Remove its financial power. Rescue the girls. Replace the deception with new lives.
The Nerve Gear Scrolls had destroyed the brothels customer base. The operation tonight was to extract the victims safely.
Reina listened in trembling silence.
For the first time in six months, someone called her by her name, not "girl," not "toy," not "property" and not a "bitch".
That night, Reina finally cried. Not from pain.
But because, for once, she believed she might still have a future.
And hers was just one of hundreds of stories from the girls exploited, discarded, and forgotten by society until two clans decided enough was enough.
Many Uchiha Clan and Uzumaki Clan feel sympathy and after this moment they are some Uchiha who decide to marry one of them. People in feudal society didn't really care about they are ex prostitute what they saw is just a poor girl who was kidnapped by nobles.
This girl was given a job secretly inside Uzumaki and Uchiha Clan territory. Some were treated from STD thanks to the chakra, the STD in this world is curable but modern world is deadly.
