81: When do you want to transfer the authority?

81: When do you want to transfer the authority?

After the teachers were done announcing the classes of each student they began to introduce the kids to their new classrooms. The parents were then asked to leave the school premises to start classes.

After making sure Naruto was fine and hadn’t forgotten anything, Izanami walked out of the school building. However, instead of heading back towards her house, she made her way to the Police Department.

She needed to have a word with Fugaku. As for why she didn’t head towards the Uchiha clan. Well, there seem to be some problems in the police department prompting him to go there early in the morning.

After a few minutes of walking, she arrived at the police department. Unlike last time, when she was rudely treated, there was a stark contrast in her treatment this time. As soon as she stepped inside the building everyone who was idle straightened up.

One of the captains even came by personally to ask for the reason for her visit. After hearing that she came here to meet Fugaku he guided her to his office without asking any other questions. While on the way, every passing Uchiha gave a small bow to Izanami as she passed by them.

The Uchiha respect strength, and Izanami, who performed the Hyakki Yagyō and successfully defeated every single opponent within the clan, is someone they deeply revere. In fact, if Izanami decided to run for the position of clan head, the Uchiha clan wouldn’t necessarily oppose her. She might even have a strong chance of winning.

As she arrived at Fugaku’s office she dismissed the captain and knocked on the door twice. “Come in “Fugaku’s voice came from the other side after a few seconds.

Opening the door she saw Fugaku sitting in his chair while on his desk there were mountains of paperwork.

‘Oh, it seems like even the Police department has to share the same fate as the Hokage. Maybe this is something Tobarama did to show them how much of a bother being a Hokage is ‘ Izanami thought.

As far as she knows the Police department like the rest of the village hasn't changed their old system since it was founded. So most of the things are still done by one person or a select few. This is also why the Hokage office was always filled with mountains of paperwork that needed his signature as every small thing wanted his approval.

And from the looks of it, the police department is also the same. The police department has a certain autonomy in the village as they have the authority to arrest criminals and interrogate them without needing the Hokage’s approval.

It was due to this system that the Uchiha managed to secure the village and keep it from being harmed by any spies or criminals. While this system is good and all since there wouldn’t be an issue keeping public security the downside in this system is that there would be two ruling parties.

While Toborama didn’t mind this as he had full confidence in Uchiha’s impartialness Hiruzen and more specifically Danzo didn’t like this. Since their goal was to take complete control over Konoha they saw the police department as a thorn in their side. That is why they thought of isolating the Uchiha clan so they wouldn’t be able to grab any more power.

After walking out of the police station she used her Observation haki to find where Tsunade is. Sensing her in the Hokage office, she decided on her next destination. She needs to have a permit to open an auction house in two weeks.

That’s right she is going to auction off her new rights as she has no use for it. And besides she is pretty sure only wealthy clans would have the ability to purchase these rights.

So from two weeks from now on the police department would have many members from different clans. And if Tsunade were to do a perfect job, many team combinations like the Ino–Shika–Chō would be born in the new police department.

Thinking of the bright future, Izanami couldn’t help but smile. She is very much expecting the changes that would happen in the future.

‘ Speaking of changes, I really need to tell Tsunade to install a new barrier. The Konoha barrier is too old and outdated. Maybe I should force Jiraiya to remodel the whole thing after he comes back, ‘ she thought while on her way to the Hokage office.
