Chapter 296: Recommendation

Dong Shilang! You really worked hard this time~

In Uchiha Fugaku's residence, Dong Shilang was sitting in the guest seat, at the same table as Fugaku and his wife, as well as the future seven.

It's nothing, I just went to the Bear Country battlefield and made a round, what hardship~

Facing Fugaku's pleasantries, Dong Shilang merely replied lightly.

This time the family assigned him under Orochimaru's command, obviously to hedge their bets, but obviously this side isn't being valued much.

After throwing him over there, they just ignore it.

Let's not talk about that; after discussing with the clan elders, we decided to let Dong Shilang take an important post in the Security Division and become my assistant. Do you have any thoughts~

After saying that, Fugaku deliberately looked at Dong Shilang's expression change, but what disappointed him was that there was no emotional fluctuation on the other's face.

After returning to Leaf Village with Orochimaru this time, Dong Shilang had already planned his destination in advance.

Being a patrol officer in the Security Division, Dong Shilang would never do that no matter what; he's a proud transmigrator, spending his days worrying about trivial matters with ordinary residents—this is just making trouble out of nothing!

As for going to the Third Hokage's place to be a mission ninja, he thinks it's unnecessary; since they don't really welcome him, he doesn't need to flatter himself.

Although Namikaze Minato is about to take office, a youngster without foundations wanting to seize power still has to endure!

And becoming Fugaku's assistant, looking at the seven beside him, he thinks better not; this family is toxic, he really can't afford to provoke them.

I don't know, how's the situation at the prison?

At this time, the Leaf Village Prison is under the control of the Uchiha clan, and what's more aggravating is that this prison is right inside the Uchiha's garrison.

With the Uchiha Sharingan's sight, one can occasionally see some Leaf Village ANBU personnel lurking in the Uchiha's garrison.

The usual excuse is to prevent any accidents among the prisoners in the jail.

As for who this prisoner is, that's a matter of subjective interpretation.

The prison?

Hearing Dong Shilang's words, Uchiha Fugaku was somewhat surprised; he didn't expect the other to finally choose such a simple post.

That place is also currently short-staffed; Dong Shilang, won't you reconsider~

Given his talent and ability, merely being a lowly prison warden is truly a waste.

He also plans to let this Uchiha genius take on several high-difficulty missions, so he can perform well in front of the Hokage.

He heard that the other has a good relationship with Namikaze Minato, and he's thinking of playing it well; then perhaps the other could……

Thanks for the clan chief's concern, the prison is great—little work, good pay, close to home!

Besides, after fighting on the battlefield for so many years, I'm really getting tired of it!

Although the prison warden isn't an important position, in the Leaf Village's staffing it's at least a mid-level leader, with salary and allowances not being few.

Moreover, in this small plot of land that is the prison, he still has the final say, and he has a dozen or so clan members under him to command.

Such a good thing is better than dealing with drunkards and petty vendors.

I got it! I'll arrange it for you!

Seeing that Dong Shilang had made up his mind, Uchiha Fugaku also didn't continue to persuade.

This is the benefit of having backing; a prison warden, you are who you say you are.

Thinking of his previous life, such a good thing is truly unimaginable, but now it's settled with just a sentence.

As for why it's so easy, the current Uchiha clan is short-handed everywhere; even just the staffing of the Security Division, they can't fill it.

Itachi! Go get that black scroll on my desk!

Yes! Father!

After receiving his son, Fugaku took out a half-person-tall brown scroll from the study, handed it to Dong Shilang, and said.

This is the seal-related material you previously searched for but didn't find; the clan elder in charge of the shrine organized it, and just in time I'm handing it over to you~

Oh! This is really great~

Seeing this black scroll, Dong Shilang's face showed joy; he needed this exactly now, and last time he even ran to the family's secret vault to search but came up empty.

He didn't expect the other to be so thoughtful.

The seal technique—its materials are really disorganized, and over these years he's been constantly on the battlefield, so he never had time to properly sort them out.

Moreover, with the some materials obtained this time from Namikaze Minato, Dong Shilang is still very satisfied.

……

Yo…… Kakashi, you're so listless!

Leaving Uchiha Fugaku's home, he handed the seal-related materials to his training shadow clone at home, and Dong Shilang began to stroll around Leaf Village.

The end of the large-scale war still allowed the villagers to recover some of their former atmosphere.

Of course, this does not include a certain white-haired brat who lost his companion.

What kind of ghostly books are you reading? This kind of book is absolutely not something a brat your age should be looking at!

Taking advantage of the other's inattention, he snatched away the book 'How to Die' from their hand, merely glanced at it casually, and Dong Shilang began to complain.

You planning to go die?

Give it back, this has nothing to do with you!

Seeing it was Dong Shilang, Kakashi lowered his guard, but dissatisfied with the other's recent action, he tried to seize the book he bought.

Well! This book isn't suitable for a brat your age; come on, I have one here that will definitely open your eyes!

If he doesn't want to, Kakashi basically can't snatch that negative reading material from his hand, but there's a saying: blocking is not as good as guiding.

Dong Shilang nimbly pulled out a small orange-covered booklet from his pocket and shoved it into Kakashi's hand.

Kid! This is the book a man should read; don't say I'm not looking out for you!

He casually tossed Kakashi's book into the roadside trash can, and Dong Shilang gave Kakashi a wink, showing an expression all men understand.

And Kakashi, seeing Dong Shilang toss his newly bought book away like trash, was equally helpless, unable to beat him, could only mutter helplessly: 'Mind your own business!'

Well! Don't say that; compared to the book you bought yourself, I think you're more suited to the one in your hand, it's absolutely a gem!
