"Sir, spare me; this is just a misunderstanding."
A young noble in the crowd hurriedly crawled out. Although his hands and feet were tied, he still nodded loudly: "Those ninjas gave them to me by force. I didn't dare to spend a penny."
"Yes, yes, we have nothing to do with those people. They gave them to us by force." Seeing this, the others hurriedly echoed.
"Really? Then the appointment of Hokage..." Kakashi sneered.
"It's all misunderstandings, all misunderstandings." Kikuchi Tomonori said hurriedly: "When we go back, we will write again to support the Clan Head Kuragami to become the Fifth Hokage."
"So it's a misunderstanding?"
Kakashi smiled: "Then, shouldn't you express your apologies? After all, it's not easy for us to come here from Konoha."
After speaking, Kakashi took out pieces of paper, threw them into the air, and then threw a series of kunai. Each kunai was accurately nailed in front of everyone present with a list.
Kikuchi Tomonori looked carefully and saw that the items listed on the form were 70% of all his current assets.
"This..."
Kikuchi Tomonori looked up at Kakashi.
"I will send someone to take it back later. You only have one night to collect the items listed above. Otherwise, if I don't see anything tomorrow morning, the heads of your entire family and the evidence of collusion with the Konoha ninja clan will be placed on the Daimyo's table."
Everyone present looked at each other, and they were all a little hesitant.
At this time, Kakashi suddenly looked at the bonfire, chuckled, and said: "Oh, this fire is a little small; I can't let all the distinguished adults catch a cold."
As he said, Kakashi took out a series of small personal items, such as amulets, from the seal scroll on his body and threw them into the bonfire.
"What is this?"
Kikuchi Tomonori saw a talisman among the things Kakashi took out, and he couldn't hold it anymore. He went to the temple to ask for this talisman for his son. Now, it appeared in Kakashi's hand. What it meant was self-evident.
Others also found their family's personal belongings in this series of things, and they were horrified.
"What did you do to Taro?"
A noble from the side asked hurriedly.
"Don't worry, everyone. Your family is resting well."
Kakashi said: "But I can't guarantee what will happen if you fail to complete the task tomorrow morning."
"Come on! Escort everyone home."
Kakashi shouted, and outside the cave, Inoka Uchiha and Genma Shiranui came in with a team of elite guards. They held these officials and nobles in groups of two and dragged them back.
… … ...
One night passed, and in the morning of the next day, Kakashi nodded with satisfaction while holding the scrolls filled with gifts.
"Invite our esteemed guests' families to join us."
Kakashi gave an order and came to the officials again.
"You all seem quite wealthy."
Kakashi said: "With so much wealth, how can you not have strong ninjas to protect you? In the future, your safety will be left to the Uchiha Clan. This is a treatment that even Daimyo does not have."
"Understood..." Kikuchi Tomonori and others nodded hurriedly.
"The Uchiha Clan is the strongest clan in the Shinobi World. It will be more expensive to hire them as your guards."
Kakashi said with a smile: "We will take 70% of your income as a guarantee of your life safety. Is it reasonable?"
Kikuchi Tomonori and others wanted to say something, but when they looked down, they could see the kunai on their necks, so they could only nod their heads and say: "Reasonable, it's completely reasonable."
"What about the appointment of Hokage?"
Kakashi raised his eyebrows.
"We will write a letter to support the Clan Head Kuragami in becoming Hokage today." Kikuchi Tomonori said hurriedly.
… … ...
After leaving most of the people they brought in the capital as guards for these officials, Kakashi, Genma Shiranui, and the others immediately returned to Kuragami Uchiha's office through the Flying Thunder God Technique.
"It's done?" Kuragami Uchiha smiled.
"Well, it's done."
Kakashi came to Kuragami Uchiha's desk, put the scroll with the money in front of Kuragami Uchiha, then sat down and said: "Everything is here, a total of 4 billion Ryo."
Kuragami Uchiha first picked up a scroll on top and threw it to Genma, then said: "You three have worked hard; treat yourself to something nice."
"This is too much."
Genma and the other two were stunned. Kakashi had taken them to eat and drink for a long time and gave them a lot, but this way of receiving a huge amount of money was the first time they experienced it. There are at least two or three hundred million here.
"Just keep what the Hokage gave you." Kakashi smiled.
"Yes!!" Genma and the other two saw this and had to nod and salute.
"Okay, you guys, go and do your work. I'll talk to the Fifth Hokage about the rest." Kakashi said.
Soon, Genma Shiranui and the other two left Kuragami Uchiha's office with a smile.
Kuragami Uchiha made tea and handed a cup to Kakashi.
After Kakashi finished the tea, he began to talk to Kuragami Uchiha about his operation.
Kuragami Uchiha listened, nodded, and then commented: "It's well done, but some aspects are still a bit rough."
"Rough?" Kakashi was a little puzzled.
'Didn't I copy all my operations from you?'
"Yes, the way to make money is fine, but you asked them to cancel the petition a little bit too early."
Kuragami Uchiha explained: "They just signed a petition not long ago, and now they are all taking it back together. This is too conspicuous. If our Daimyo is smart, he might see something."
"What should we do?" Kakashi heard this, and his expression became serious.
"Forget it, don't worry."
Kuragami Uchiha said with a smile: "It's not a big problem. Even if the Daimyo finds out, it's okay. Anyway, that old man won't live long."
Kakashi was stunned when he heard this.
"By the way, I asked you to investigate the old man's offspring. How is the investigation going?"
"The Daimyo now has two sons. The eldest son has been made the crown prince. He is very popular among the people in the capital. People in the capital say that he will be a benevolent ruler in the future."
Kakashi said.
"Really? What about Daimyo's youngest son?" Kuragami Uchiha asked.
"The youngest son of the Daimyo?"
Kakashi laughed: "His youngest son is only four years old this year, and he has little presence in the capital."
"Really?" Kuragami Uchiha chuckled: "That's great."
"Kakashi, I think the Daimyo's reply should reach the village in a few days."
Kuragami Uchiha looked at Kakashi: "In the next few days, you should send out the news of the expansion of the Konoha Military Police Force. As for the formal reorganization, it will start immediately after I take office."
"Understood." Kakashi nodded.
The following time, the Konoha Military Police Force posted a notice of the expansion, and the news quickly spread to every corner of the village.
Many Genin were moved after seeing the news, and even some Chunin in the village were no exception.
The treatment of the Konoha Military Police Force is no secret in the ninja circle of the village. Some ninjas who did not choose to sign up last time because of concerns about the reputation of the Konoha Military Police Force have already regretted it.
