Konoha: Uchiha Extremists? Offering Loyalty!

Chapter 167 Banquet and Red Envelope Giving!

The police department's power is simply outrageous!

Arrest one person and put them in jail; from beginning to end, one captain of the Uchiha clan handled everything!

There isn't a single flaw!

So, does the Hokage's office reserve the right to question and oversee?

What is the use?

Full oversight, or partial oversight?

If comprehensive oversight is impossible, and the Hokage's office is sending out personnel capable of conducting comprehensive oversight, they might as well just establish a separate police department.

Some supervisory bodies are even more at a loss.

The interpretation of the law rests with the police department and the Uchiha clan.

They dictate how to carry it out, and that's how we do it.

We'll decide how to rule!

What's even more infuriating is that the only weakness—the lack of strong backers—was addressed by Uchiha Yuuki.

What should I do?

With doubts about Yuuki, Hiruzen Sarutobi retrieved all the recent information on the Uchiha clan.

He read this intelligence report over and over again, word by word, analyzing it hypothetically.

Every time there was new intelligence, I would read it in its entirety, almost to the point of memorizing it!

Based on his recent actions, his suspicions became even stronger.

Uchiha Yuuki wants to become a high-ranking member of Konoha or even the Hokage!

I favor reform!

That teenager is trying to lead the development of Konoha and leave behind a new Will of Fire!

"The drafted bill does not contain any overly outrageous aspects."

“But, a force of ten thousand springtails…” Hiruzen Sarutobi’s eyes revealed deep apprehension.

Ten thousand ninja beasts that use the fireball technique have reasonably good physical strength.

This is no ordinary police squad; it's clearly equivalent to ten thousand well-trained genin!

Even a Kage-level expert would have a hard time withstanding a large-scale attack from ten thousand Genin!

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped his pipe: "Child... is the future of the village..."

But I'm not at the point where I can't walk yet!

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and he stood up, pacing back and forth across the ninja world map.

To rebuild prestige.

It seems there's only one path left!

Ninjas are warriors who have fought their way through war!

War! I'll personally lead the troops!

......

After Yuuki walked out of the Hokage Building, he could still see several police officers dragging a few dead dogs by the roadside.

"Your Excellency!"

Upon seeing Yuuki, the team members saluted and greeted him.

"It's Heiji, Tomimura, and Akira."

Without hesitation, Yuuki called out the names of the three people.

The three men's faces flushed red, and the clan emblem on their backs stood even more upright, filled with excitement and fervor!

"Very good!" Yuuki patted the three of them on the shoulders, casually stuffed three red envelopes into their hands, and said encouragingly, "The operation was a perfect success. The celebration banquet will be held at the police headquarters building. Hurry back!"

"understand!"

On the other side of the street, Nara Shikako noticed that the police officers had not yet retreated.

Throughout the streets and alleys of Konoha, many police officers wearing Uchiha clan crests on their backs are searching the homes of illegal merchants and inventorying the assets of criminals.

The servants, employees, and others who put up a stubborn resistance received 'hot' treatment.

An Uchiha who looks like a Jonin holds a police baton that emits fiery red chakra.

Nara Shikashin, with his extensive knowledge, recognized it at a glance as the Uchiha Ryuka Sword Technique.

A practical application of fire-style chakra transformation.

The effect was improved on the replaced baton.

Fire-style chakra was attached to the baton, effectively stopping the bleeding while striking!

The scenes unfolding on the street, witnessed by Nara Shikashin and the various clan leaders, caused them to grow serious.

"The police department pulled through."

"The third generation of the ape is getting old."

"We need to think more carefully about which side to take within the clan."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's hard-earned prestige was about to crumble.

This was the first thought in the minds of all the clan leaders.

Simultaneously.

They were more anxious, but also more expectant.

Anxious about the turbulent future of the village.

The last major change in the village was brought about by the sudden death of the second generation leader who led the negotiations.

Will this time lead Konoha into another quagmire of war?

The expectation is that the Uchiha clan, led by Uchiha Yuuki, does not intend to create a law-abiding police department.

Each family may have an opportunity to 'ascend' to Konoha.

Just like when the village was first built, everything was in need of rebuilding.

Last night's riots affected not only the merchants in the village, but also wealthy businessmen outside the village, as well as spies newly planted by the enemy country.

The police department's arrest was swift as the wind.

Those with ulterior motives were exposed.

Many parts of Konoha Village have been thrown into chaos by spies.

The shop was burned down.

The courtyard was looted.

The secret service is on the run, the police are making arrests, and spies are causing trouble.

Innocent people perished tragically, mercilessly crushed amidst the three-way battle.

The fate of Konoha is a cycle, a period of chaos followed by a period of great order.

Another period of chaos, another period of recovery.

Konoha rises in cycles; how high will it rise this time?

The village's devastation contrasted sharply with the frenzy inside the police department building.

Yuuki returned to the clan chief's office amidst enthusiastic greetings from all around.

Uchiha Rinne, who had been waiting there, had his brows furrowed tightly, as if he was waiting for Yuuki to return.

"Elder," Yushu greeted casually, "The celebration banquet went smoothly, didn't it? Once all the police officers have arrived, let's start eating first, and then settle the mission records and rewards on the spot."

“The arrangements went very smoothly,” Uchiha Rinpoche said.

“Okay.” Yuuki nodded and buried himself in processing the experimental data.

After waiting for a while, Uchiha Rinpoche still hadn't left.

Yushu looked up and asked, "Is there anything else, Elder?"

"Hmm." Uchiha Rinko asked hesitantly, "What should be done with criminals arrested by the police department?"

“I have discussed this matter with the Third Hokage and exchanged opinions,” Yuuki said. “The handling of criminals will be primarily handled by the police department. They will determine the charges against all criminals and then submit them to the Hokage’s office for final approval and authorization from the Hokage.”

"As long as the guilt is plausible, the Hokage will not deny it."

“If the Grand Elder is interested, he can handle these matters personally.”

After saying that, Yuuki stared intently at Uchiha Ryo, signaling to him, "Can we leave now?"

There's still a lot to do at the victory celebration banquet.

"Didn't the Hokage say anything else?" Uchiha Rinko's brows furrowed even deeper.

"We don't have time to talk about other things. Restoring the family's reputation is no problem. As for the villagers' compensation and resettlement, we'll just gloss over that." Yuuki rubbed his forehead wearily. "The Hokage said we can talk about those minor details later. The main issue we discussed was the scope of the police department's authority."

Yuuki lay back on the soft chair and sighed, "I used so much of my breath to finally get the police department's power back completely. I'm so tired."

Uchiha was deeply moved, feeling as if something had shattered.

Didn't the Third Hokage say that all the villagers of Konoha were his good companions?

Why did he seem so indifferent when his companion suffered such a calamity?

Uchiha Rin walked towards the door in a daze.

Yuuki, sitting in the office, smiled slightly and shook his head with a tsk-tsk sound.

People who completely believe in the Will of Fire are somewhat 'out there' in their minds.

Is it really that hard to accept that the third generation's words and actions are inconsistent with his true intentions?

Then your worst days are yet to come!

A grand celebration ceremony was held at the police department building that day.

The food and red envelopes that Yuuki had prepared in advance provided a powerful boost of excitement for everyone working late into the night.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, he announced that everyone would take an extra day off to enjoy life.

Yuuki himself stood at the entrance of the police department building, seeing off each team member who was going home, looking at each smiling face.

The benefits have been secured.

But the police force continues to grow and reformers emerge; this cannot be achieved solely through self-interest.

It doesn't matter if they're family; blood ties are what matter.

The Uchiha clan has always admired strength and pride; those who are alive will not betray Yuuki, who possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan.

However, to win over clan ninjas or even commoner ninjas, it is essential to ensure ideological alignment.

Yuuki had a plan in mind.

'Make Konoha great again!'

The "Hidden Cloud Village Threat Theory!"
