"Now I feel much better."
After furiously whipping Shisui and Kisame Hoshigaki like punching bags, Rong Lin clapped his hands in satisfaction, looking at the two with a half-smile.
"If you two have any complaints next time, you can come find me. I'll definitely help you straighten things out. I absolutely won't charge you a fee!"
"I wouldn't dare!!!"
Shisui clenched his teeth in pain. He should know that Samehada was covered in spikes! This thing was like a spiked club, hitting a person would be incredibly excruciating.
At least Shisui now felt like he had many small holes all over his body, these small holes were all caused by Kisame Hoshigaki's Samehada.
Hearing Rong Lin's words, Shisui didn't dare to think about next time. He had been brutally whipped by Samehada this time, what about next time?
"I wouldn't dare."
Shisui was the first to give in. Kisame Hoshigaki was no longer a stubborn or unyielding person; he could only speak in a low voice.
Both of them submitted, making Mei Terumī and Uchiha Dizhi, who were standing by the side, let out a sigh of relief.
What they feared was that the two would stubbornly resist and be dealt with. He should know that Rong Lin's terrifying aura could make people (illegible) fall to their knees.
"You two idiots!!! Did I make you two act like shrinking turtles?"
The two guys didn't understand what he meant. Rong Lin's mouth twitched in anger, saying:
"I told you not to fight in my courtyard! If you want to fight, go to the training ground! Isn't that wide enough for your antics? If it's not enough, you can go outside the village! Where does progress come from if not from battle?! Are you two idiots?"
What made Shisui and Kisame Hoshigaki dumbfounded next was that they were actually scolded. They thought that yielding would solve everything, but the result was Rong Lin's furious scolding.
"You two, from now on, go to the training ground honestly. If you have any problems, go to the training ground to solve them. Uchiha be good!!!"
"Yes!!!"
Shisui shuddered and quickly responded loudly.
"Before your strength reaches Jōnin level, you're not to take a single step out of the village!!!"
Rong Lin was furious. He stared at Shisui, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.
You've been with me for almost two years. Have you been slacking off?
"Huh?"
Shisui's face immediately darkened. Jōnin?!
Is Jōnin so easy to achieve?
Shisui instantly felt like crying. If only he knew, he wouldn't have challenged Kisame Hoshigaki for no reason. Now what? If his strength didn't reach Jōnin level, he couldn't leave the village a single step. This meant that any future missions or benefits would have nothing to do with him.
How could this be acceptable?
Shisui originally wanted to beg for mercy, but seeing Rong Lin's grim expression, he immediately swallowed back his plea.
He could only lower his head and reply dejectedly: "Yes, My Lord."
Having dealt with Shisui, Rong Lin looked at Kisame Hoshigaki, who also had a bruised face. With a stomp of his foot, Samehada sprang into his hand. Holding Samehada, Rong Lin pointed at Kisame Hoshigaki and said coldly:
"I know what kind of person you are in the Mist Village, but this is Konoha. The person you follow is no longer Suigetsu Hozuki, but me, Uchiha Rong Lin!! If you don't want me to give you lessons every day, then behave yourself."
"From today onwards, you and Shisui will cooperate with each other. And if your strength doesn't reach Jōnin level, Samehada will be kept here as a display. I will return it to you only when your strength reaches my standard!!"
"..." Kisame Hoshigaki was a little dumbfounded, not understanding why his own weapon would be taken away. He should know that he had just developed some tacit understanding with Samehada. Wouldn't this be too much?
"Did you hear me!!!"
"Yes, My Lord, I guarantee the mission will be completed!!!"
"Louder!!! I can't hear you!!!"
"Yes, My Lord!!! I guarantee the mission will be completed!!!"
"And you all!!!"
Having dealt with the two most troublesome ones, Rong Lin turned his gaze to the two women. "Uchiha Dizhi, I don't want to say too much. You should know what I want to say. You also work very hard, so keep it up. According to family rules, women, even kunoichi, should not show their faces to fight. But I promise, as long as your strength reaches Jōnin level, you can follow me without restriction from now on."
"Really?"
Uchiha Dizhi's eyes widened, and her body trembled slightly.
She should know that being able to leave the village freely was Uchiha Dizhi's biggest dream. But every time, her older sister and father would say, "A girl's family should stay home and teach her husband and children. What are you doing running around outside?"
Not only Uchiha Dizhi, but most Uchiha girls faced this situation. Unless your strength could defy heaven, you would obediently stay at home. Don't even think about going anywhere else.
"...Really, do my words count?!"
Rong Lin calmly nodded. This was something he had been dissatisfied with for a long time. Why could women from other clans participate in battles, but Uchiha women could not? Was it because Uchiha kunoichi were weak?
Capacity (referring to potential) would not think so. The Uchiha clan had the largest population base in Konoha. The number of ninjas they trained for the village was enormous. Of course, there were many female ninjas, and many of them were very strong. But under this long-standing custom, most of them stayed within the clan.
One could imagine that once this rule was relaxed, the Uchiha's combat power would definitely soar.
This was a point that needed to be changed without delay, but the prerequisite was that Rong Lin had to be able to control the Uchiha.
Otherwise, whatever he said would be meaningless.
"Heh heh heh~ Uchiha Fugaku, I hope you don't disappoint me."
Although the Uchiha would lose many people because of this, in the long run, this sacrifice was worth it. The Uchiha did not lack outstanding ninjas; they lacked some good vassals.
With a cold chuckle in his heart, Rong Lin finally looked at Mei Terumī. Mei Terumī's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively took two steps back.
Honestly, she was a little afraid of Rong Lin. Standing with Rong Lin, she always felt a little uncomfortable, feeling as if her entire being was seen through, with no secrets at all.
This made her feel very uneasy. Not to mention that Mei Terumī was still brought back by Rong Lin with the Three-Tails.
After coming to the village, her heart was beating an unsteady rhythm, and it never calmed down. Now Rong Lin was finally looking directly at her, but it made Mei Terumī inexplicably nervous.
"Improve your strength as soon as possible."
