Chapter 232 Divine Power
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of conservative ninjas who, when united, were enough to flatten most of the countries in the ninja world, were reduced to ashes by Uchiha Ikezumi!
The Hidden Mist ninjas who witnessed all of this fell silent. Regardless of their previous opinions on Mei's decision, they all kept quiet now.
Faced with such a monster that is practically inhuman, all resistance is futile.
The only saving grace is that Uchiha Izumi adhered to "absolute justice," otherwise Kirigakure might not have even had the chance to continue existing.
Seeing that the Hidden Mist ninjas had finally calmed down from their agitation, Mei Terumi breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little uneasy.
Having witnessed firsthand Uchiha Ikezumi's overwhelming power, the anger burning in the faces and eyes of the Kirigakure ninjas had quietly subsided, replaced by fear and submission to this godlike power.
"Clang clang | Clang ————"
With a series of sounds of kunai and ninja swords hitting the ground, the Hidden Mist ninjas knelt down, completely submitting to Uchiha Ikezumi.
Even Mei Terumi sighed inwardly and knelt down to offer the highest respect to the god-like man before her.
Perhaps our predecessors were just as powerless when facing Hashirama Senju, which is why they bestowed upon the First Hokage the title of God of Shinobi.
Human beings can never contend with the gods, and now Mei Terumi can only console herself with this thought.
"—In the name of [absolute justice], I will grant this land new life—"
Having deactivated his complete Susanoo, Uchiha Ikezumi slowly walked up to the Hidden Mist ninja. His blood-red eyes calmly looked at the Hidden Mist ninja before him. "Those who wish to follow me may stay, and those who do not may leave."
After clearing out two batches of red names, most of the Kirigakure ninjas are now white names. Although there are still a few with squares showing signs of turning red, this level of sin is still within Uchiha Ikezumi's tolerance range.
To be precise, the priority of punishing crimes of this degree is slightly lower than promoting the cause of justice in the Land of Water. It is not too late to punish the various crimes of the former when [absolute justice] truly descends upon this land entangled in evil.
Just as the Hidden Mist ninjas knelt at the feet of Uchiha Izumi, after consulting with Juzo Biwa, Uchiha Izumi chose a town located between Hidden Mist Village and the capital of the Land of Water as the first step in promoting [Absolute Justice].
The main reason for choosing this town is that it is the largest black market in the Land of Water, and it is also likely the area with the highest density of criminals in the Land of Water.
Even before stepping into this Water Gull City, Uchiha Izumi had mentally prepared herself for what she would see: a dense array of red squares, and the place teeming with heinous outlaws.
After all, it's a gathering place for villains that even "highly recommends" to Pipa Juzo; murder and arson might just be everyday occurrences here.
However, to Uchiha Izumi's surprise, her first impression of Mizuguro Castle was surprisingly good. It wasn't that there were no criminals there, but rather that the number of people with red names was far less than she had imagined.
The vast majority are ordinary people with gloomy faces and ragged clothes. The few exceptions are mostly white-named, and only occasionally will a guy with a red name appear.
The entire Watergull City is less of a town and more of a large slum, with low mud houses, dilapidated shops, and roads that have been neglected for years. It is hard to imagine that this is one of the largest towns in the Land of Water.
"Cough, when I passed through here a few years ago, Watergull City wasn't this dilapidated."
Faced with the questioning look from Uchiha Izumi, even with his thick skin, Biwa Juzo felt a little embarrassed. However, his eyes quickly filled with killing intent. "Those pests deserve to die!"
"Let's split up and investigate the situation here first. Senior Chi Quan taught me that you have no right to speak without investigation."
Uchiha Izumi nodded and put Tachibana Jiro, who was perched on her shoulder, down to the ground. "Senior Juzo, don't rush to kill anyone. We can't let a bad guy get away, but we also can't indiscriminately kill innocent people!"
"Tsk, I get it."
Juzo Biwa was a little impatient, but he also knew that the leader of this trip was Izumi Uchiha, and only her eyes could identify all the sinners, so he could only reluctantly agree.
"Wait a minute! Am I splitting up too? You're going to investigate crime without me, meow?"
Only Tachibana Jiro, who was put on the ground, was very unhappy. It was the oldest cat that had followed Ikezumi-sama the longest. These two hateful humanoid vehicles didn't even ask for its opinion before making the decision!
"Since we're going to investigate separately, the more perspectives and directions we explore, the better. Besides, those bad guys will definitely be wary of outsiders."
Uchiha Izumi raised a finger, mimicking Ikezumi-senpai's tone, and said very seriously, "But if it's Tachibana Jiro-senpai being investigated, even bad guys would be less careful, right?"
"That's true—meow, as expected, for such crucial tasks, I, the cat, have to handle it myself!"
Tachibana Jiro was overjoyed, finally forgiving his two impudent juniors. He swayed his plump body and quickly disappeared into the dilapidated alley.
Watching Tachibana Jiro's disappearing figure, Uchiha Izumi rubbed her shoulders helplessly. Although it was a bit unfair to say this to Tachibana Jiro-senpai, Izumi-senpai really didn't consider helping Tachibana Jiro-senpai lose weight?
"Remember to signal if you encounter danger; the people here are not to be trifled with—"
Juzo Biwa hesitated for a moment, but still took out two specially made signal flares from his ninja tool pouch and handed them to Izumi Uchiha. "Be careful not to die."
Although the Uchiha girl in front of him was quite strong, Juzo Biwa did not dare to be careless. The fact that Watergull City had become the largest black market in the Land of Water and had been operating for decades meant that the power of the mastermind behind it was undeniable.
In a direct confrontation, with Izumi Uchiha's three-tomoe Sharingan, dealing with an ordinary Jonin shouldn't be a problem. However, the ninjas hired by the black market might be rogue ninjas from Kirigakure, and those ruthless guys are no joke.
"Yes, I understand. Please be careful, Juzo-senpai."

Uchiha Izumi did not refuse Biwa Juzo's offer, but she did not think she would ever need those two signal flares.
Although she has always been following behind Uchiha Izumi and assisting her, thanks to the improvements she has made as a believer in justice, Uchiha Izumi is no longer the naive newcomer in the security department she once was.
If they were to actually fight, disregarding the difference in combat experience and mentality, Juzo Biwa, whose strength relies 70% on his Executioner's Blade, might not be a match for Izumi Uchiha.
