Well done!
Genya listened to Uchiha Shin's request and finally nodded in satisfaction.
In crucial monts, they still had to rely on Uncle Shin.
What he said was spot on; the Uchiha clan needed a new leader.
"What do you an, Uchiha Shin?" Uchiha Fugaku frowned, his expression cold. He didn't expect Uchiha Shin to make this request.
If it wasn't him as the leader of the Uchiha Police Force, then who could it be?
Was Uchiha Shin refusing to follow him?
"Fugaku, we are working for the rchant association right now. If you want us to join the Police Force, then please let Uchiha Kinya be our leader!" Uchiha Shin continued, aware that if Uchiha Fugaku remained in charge, they would likely repeat the sa mistakes.
If that's the case, they might as well not join at all.
"Letting Uchiha Kinya be the leader of the Police Force? Impossible!" Uchiha Fugaku shook his head decisively. As clan leader, this was his greatest authority. If he handed over control of the Police Force, his position as leader would be effectively aningless.
"Sorry, but we can't go!" Uchiha Shin shook his head, refusing Uchiha Fugaku's invitation.
The Uchiha clan mbers behind him also nodded in agreent. If Uchiha Fugaku was still in charge of the Police Force, they might as well not go.
"You all..." Uchiha Fugaku was at a loss for words, but seeing the determined faces of the others, he didn't know how to resolve the situation. He turned to Uchiha Kinya: "Kinya, do you feel the sa way?"
"Leader, this is just their opinion. If they really don't want to join the Police Force, let them be!" Uchiha Kinya shook his head, not wanting to force his subordinates into doing sothing they didn't want to do.
Besides, he was also unhappy with the current state of the Police Force. Recently, they had lost over thirty thousand ryo due to minor issues.
This way, the commoners had tasted benefits, and more troublemakers would challenge the Police Force's authority in the future. If Uchiha Fugaku continued to lead, the clan mbers might have to pay to work at the Police Force.
In that case, they might as well not go.
"You..." The veins on Uchiha Fugaku's forehead bulged as he struggled to contain his anger. "So, you truly want to see the Police Force decline?"
As he spoke, he glared at Uchiha Shin and the clan mbers behind him.
It was a challenge.
"Fugaku, we just want to change the leader of the Police Force. You're the one who doesn't want to change!" Uchiha Shin scratched his head innocently, making it clear that it wasn't their reluctance to join but rather Uchiha Fugaku's refusal to et their conditions.
"Humph, since the establishnt of the Police Force, it has always been under the clan leader's control. How can I agree to your unreasonable request?" Uchiha Fugaku looked at them gravely.
He definitely wouldn't agree to relinquish the position of leader.
While the two were debating, Genya below gestured to Uchiha Shin a few tis. This ti, Uchiha Shin's expression changed from relaxed to shocked, looking at Genya in disbelief.
After getting a clear response from Genya, he turned back to Fugaku: "Fugaku, I understand your thoughts, but since we're receiving money from the rchant association, how about we each take a step back?"
As soon as he said this, all eyes turned to him.
"How do we back down?" Uchiha Fugaku frowned and asked.
"The authority of the Police Force isn't given to Uchiha Kinya; it's given to Uchiha Genya. In the Police Force, we only follow the orders of Genya-kun!" Uchiha Shin said stubbornly. This was also the ssage Uchiha Genya had passed to him.
Since the young master wanted the position in the Police Force, he would fight for it. As long as it didn't harm the Uchiha clan's interests, he would fully support young master Genya.
Others nodded in agreent.
"You want a child to be the head of the Police Force?" Uchiha Fugaku's eyes nearly sparked with anger. Was this saying he was less capable than a child? Ridiculous! He looked at Uchiha Shin and continued to ask, "Is there no room for further negotiation?"
He would rather Uchiha Shin wanted to be the head of the Police Force than let a child take the position.
"If the clan leader can't agree to this condition, then there's no point in continuing this discussion!" Uchiha Shin shook his head firmly.
Silence!
Both sides seed to be at a standstill.
No one spoke.
However, the mbers of the Police Force behind Uchiha Fugaku had ugly expressions.
They would never agree to follow the orders of a kid; they weren't willing to accept that.
Absolutely not.
Besides, they hadn't received any money from the rchant association.
After a few minutes of silence, Fugaku took a deep breath. "I'll agree to your terms, but you need to take 300,000 ryo from the Police Force and manage two-thirds of the Uchiha Police Force's area. If you make a mistake and get fined, it will also be deducted from that 300,000!"
Earlier, Uchiha Fugaku thought a lot about dividing the managent areas.
This was much better than Uchiha Kinya managing it directly. If Genya, the child, didn't manage well, these people would have to return to his command.
Moreover, if the rchant association's ninjas made mistakes, the fines would also co from that 300,000, achieving two goals at once.
Genya smiled at Uchiha Fugaku's demands.
He understood Fugaku's thoughts. He felt that because of his young age, Fugaku would feel safe letting him manage the Police Force.
However, Genya scoffed at this. He thought about the people from his rchant association. Wasn't he doing the sa thing, trying to take over the Uchiha Police Force?
If Fugaku really thought of him as a three-year-old child, then he would be the one at a disadvantage.
"Since that's settled, we agree! Starting tomorrow, our rchant association will move into the Police Force!" Uchiha Kinya said, seeing they had reached an agreent, and finally smoothed things over.
"Since we've reached an agreent, let's divide the managent areas. Your rchant Association can take over tomorrow!" Fugaku said, then added, "You can set your headquarters either at the rchant Association or the Police Force!"
"It can be at the rchant Association!" Uchiha Kinya replied directly. "The rchant Association has enough space!"
Next, they began to divide the managent areas. Genya would mainly oversee the civilian districts, which was good since the hospital he planned to build would fall under the managent of the rchant Association's Police Force.
Afterward, Uchiha Kinya and Uchiha Shin discussed more details. Fugaku waved his sleeve and left with Itachi and the remaining clan mbers.
"Son, what are you thinking? You want to be the head of the Police Force?" After Fugaku left, Uchiha Kinya pulled his son over and said with so frustration.
He had noticed the little interactions between his son and Uchiha Shin earlier.
"Dad, if the clan leader continues to be the head of the Police Force, it might really fall apart. If I'm in charge, at least I'll have you and the uncles to help with ideas!" He explained, trying to avoid his father's glare.
Of course, Genya had another thought in mind: the Uchiha Police Force must be in their hands. Whether it's for a future coup or anything else, the Police Force is a powerful tool.
It's just like the Third Hokage's Anbu and Danzo's Root!
