That's just how it is.
Sarutobi Hiruzen fell silent.
He looked deeply at Uchiha Jin, thought for a long time, then spoke softly.
"So, that's it!"
"The Uchiha have done well in catching spies. All members of the Police Force are hereby commended!"
"Oh, and I also heard that the Police Force caught three more spies?"
"How about handing these three spies over to the Interrogation Department?"
"It's not that I don't trust the Police Force, it's just that professional matters are best left to professionals."
"Jin-kun, what do you think?"
Just as expected!
As Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke, the various Ninja Clans exchanged glances.
Everyone had guessed correctly.
Only Danzo, at this moment, was fuming, his face ashen.
He looked utterly furious.
He had lost seven elite squads, over twenty Elite Jonin!
Such a massive loss, and it was dismissed so lightly with a single sentence?
If an uncle could tolerate it, an aunt could not.
"Hiruzen, you..." Danzo couldn't help but speak.
But, unfortunately.
Before he could even finish, Sarutobi Hiruzen forcefully interrupted: "Danzo, shut up!"
"But..." Danzo still wanted to argue.
Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke coldly.
"Danzo, I am the Hokage!"
"Hiruzen, you will regret this!"
Danzo snorted at his words.
Finally, he gave Uchiha Jin a cold look, then, ignoring the Hokage, he turned and left as if no one else was there.
Yes.
As a Konoha Elder, and the head of Root, he.
In the entire Konoha, besides Sarutobi Hiruzen, he didn't put anyone else in his eyes.
Uchiha Jin's eyes were obscure.
A moment later.
A hint of mockery appeared on his lips, then he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Hmm, no problem."
"Since it's the Hokage-sama's order, then the Police Force will, of course, obey."
"Our Uchiha Clan fully obeys the Hokage's orders."
"Tekka, release them!"
No unnecessary words.
After expressing his loyalty, Uchiha Jin immediately spoke.
He didn't even bother to seize the opportunity to make demands.
After all, the persona he was cultivating right now was that of a loyal Konoha subject, completely subservient to the Hokage, right?
It wasn't worth breaking his persona for a small benefit.
Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not in a good mood right now, so even if he asked, he wouldn't get any benefits, at most some verbal praise.
In the long run, there would be plenty of time.
No rush!
We'll just play slowly.
Anyone who had gone through nine years of compulsory education in their previous life, in this Shinobi World without complete power struggle experience, would basically be on a rampage.
And as Uchiha Jin spoke, Uchiha Tekka, of course, didn't waste words.
He immediately went to the Police Force's prison and brought out the three 'spies'.
Seeing the miserable state of these three, Sarutobi Hiruzen's anger flared even more.
Damn it.
These three were Anbu!
But, there was nothing he could do.
He still couldn't get angry.
Otherwise, how would he explain why the Anbu were deliberately causing trouble for the Police Force in broad daylight?
If this matter escalated, what would happen to his reputation as Hokage?
Uchiha Jin knew not to break his persona, and Sarutobi Hiruzen's persona was even more important to maintain.
So.
After taking a deep breath, he slowly waved his hand.
680 Then several Anbu stepped out and directly escorted the three 'spies' away.
"Uchiha Jin, you've done well!"
"I used to worry that you, being young and suddenly rising to a high position, would cause problems for the Police Force."
"Now, I'm relieved."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was profound.
After speaking.
Without waiting for Uchiha Jin to reply, he turned and left directly.
With the Hokage's departure, today's matter was settled.
In just a moment.
All the Ninja Clans and Anbu ninjas turned and chose to leave.
The area in front of the Police Force once again returned to calm.
However.
The Uchiha members did not move.
Instead, everyone looked at Uchiha Jin, waiting for their Chief's orders.
Clearly.
After tonight's incident, the vast majority of Uchiha acknowledged Uchiha Jin.
Powerful, with sharp methods.
Even the Hokage himself came and ended up leaving frustrated.
The Uchiha's minds were very simple.
Since there was such an amazing person in the clan, why not quickly show loyalty instead of waiting?
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Uchiha Jin's eyes narrowed slightly.
His gaze was fixed on the Hokage Building in the distance, his mind working furiously, thinking and calculating.
A moment later.
When he turned his head and saw the many Uchiha, he couldn't help but smile and speak.
"Everyone worked hard today."
"Deal with these bodies, then go home and sleep."
"Fugaku Clan Head, let's go too."
