Konoha: The Absolute Justice of the Uchiha

Chapter 24 Senior Chi Quan, isn't this tantamount to a rebellion?
"Uchiha Izumi..." Uchiha Setsuna, his old face grim, gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "He's already been brainwashed by the Senju's Will of Fire, just like that Uchiha Itachi!"

"His loyalty is not to the Uchiha clan, but to Konoha and the Senju clan! He is a traitor to the Uchiha!"

To an extreme hawkish elder like Uchiha Setsuna, clansmen who did not support the coup plan were cowardly cowards.

The Uchiha clan members who outwardly side with the Hokage are those who have been brainwashed by the Will of Fire and are almost beyond redemption.

As for Uchiha Ikezumi...

Uchiha Setsuna maliciously speculated that the other party was a combination of two types, or even far more than the two types mentioned above.

Because that bastard Uchiha Izumi's murderous intent towards me just now was definitely not fake.

He really wanted to kill me!

“Elder Setsuna.” At this moment, a hawkish Uchiha said, “Uchiha Izumi is very likely to become the biggest obstacle in our plan, just like Uchiha Itachi.”

"That guy may never have been on our side from the beginning. He has never been on the side of the Uchiha."

Uchiha Setsuna snorted coldly.

I wonder what they're planning.

……

the other side.

After leaving the Root base, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not return to the Hokage Building, but instead went to Konoha Prison and waited silently.

Before long, Hiruzen Sarutobi was greeted by a member of the Uchiha police force.

Then, the police officer was seen bringing the offending Naruto Uzumaki to Konoha Prison—this was an order given to him by Fugaku.

"Hokage... Lord?"

The police officers inevitably became tense upon seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi and his entourage of Anbu ninjas.

After all, he was a ninja of the Uchiha clan, and the little devil he was holding was the legendary incarnation of a demon fox.

"fine."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gestured for the other party to calm down. He didn't press the issue, and said with a smile, "I have always trusted the Uchiha clan and believed you wouldn't do anything outrageous. Judging from the current situation, Fugaku made the right choice. You should also be on Fugaku's side, right?"

The police officer bowed and said, "It was indeed the head of the Fugaku family who instructed me to transfer Naruto Uzumaki to Konoha Prison in time, and to prevent some members of the clan from coming into contact with Naruto."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in satisfaction.

He continued, "You can leave Naruto to me."

The police officer hesitated, saying, "If we hand it over to the Hokage, what about Uchiha Izumi...?"

Uchiha Ikezumi was someone even the head of the Fugaku family couldn't control.

He was still somewhat wary of Uchiha Ikezumi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "There's no conflict. Izumi's goal was to teach Naruto a lesson and send him to Konoha Prison, and now you've brought Naruto here, haven't you?"

"As the Hokage of Konoha, I have the authority to pardon Naruto and take him away from Konoha prison. This is my prerogative. Even if Izumi is dissatisfied, he will only come to me, not you."

“…Yes, Lord Hokage.” The police officer thought for a moment and released Naruto.

"Grandpa Hokage!!!"

"Woooooooo..."

Naruto, who had been on tenterhooks all day and was finally "rescued," rushed towards Hiruzen Sarutobi almost in tears.

Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Naruto's head, his tone turning serious as he instructed the ANBU ninja behind him: "Keep a close eye on Root recently. I suspect Danzo won't let this go easily. That guy isn't one to swallow his pride, especially when the person who wronged him is a genius ninja from the Uchiha clan."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

……

It was already evening in the blink of an eye.

Uchiha Izumi, who unintentionally stirred up the situation in Konoha, then casually strolled around the village with Izumi for several rounds.

It was as if the changing situation had nothing to do with him. Uchiha Izumi's composure calmed Izumi, who had been feeling uneasy.

"Newcomers, please report."

"Yes, Senior Izumi!" Izumi said, perking up. "Including Naruto Uzumaki, today... we discovered a total of nine 'villains.' Among them, three disrupted Konoha's order, two were involved in theft, two were involved in fighting, and..."

At this point, Quan's tone became somewhat cautious. She said, "Two others were involved in obstructing law enforcement. Of the nine 'bad guys,' seven were arrested and imprisoned, and two were killed on the spot."

Two thugs who obstructed law enforcement were killed on the spot in Quankou.

They were two Root ninjas who died at the hands of Uchiha Izumi.

Uchiha Ikezumi glanced at her: "A lot leaked out."

"what?"

Quan was stunned for a moment; she didn't think there was any leakage!
She even wrote down everything that happened today in her little notebook.

but……

Faced with Izumi's gaze, Izumi suddenly became somewhat insecure. She simply couldn't bring herself to say the words, "There was no leak, was there?"

"Did it...leak?"

Quan asked tentatively.

"Shimura Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and that Uchiha Setsuna, and..." Uchiha Ikezumi calmly named one name after another, as if he were the King of Hell calling out a roll call.

He said coldly, "These people are standing on the opposite side of justice today, but because our justice is not strong enough, they can continue to get away with it."

"These 'evils' that need to be eradicated..."

"You've missed everything."

Quan was terrified. Senior Chi Quan had probably mentioned almost every high-ranking official in the village.

Even the elders of the Uchiha clan, including Senior Ikezumi, were not overlooked.

If we were to "eliminate" all the names mentioned by Senior Ikezumi...

Isn't this behavior equivalent to...?

rebel? !
"Make a note of these people too," Uchiha Ikezumi said calmly.

"Okay... okay, senior." Izumi could only take out his little notebook and write down what Izumi-senpai had just said.

However, she noticed that her fingertips seemed to tremble slightly when she wrote, especially after writing down the name of the Hokage, "Hiruzen Sarutobi," she felt like she couldn't get off the ship.

If this little notebook is discovered by the ninjas of the Anbu...

hiss!
She felt she would spend the rest of her life in Konoha prison.

As Izumi followed Uchiha Izumi and took notes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a small figure at the street corner ahead.

Quan's bright, watery eyes gradually widened.

She watched helplessly as the small figure suddenly turned and collided with Senior Chi Quan.

Bang!
Unsurprisingly, the other person fell down on their backside, scattering the things they were carrying all over the ground.

"Well--"

Quan heard the child's cries of pain.

"Sasuke, watch where you're going." She also heard a gentle voice, apologetic, coming from further ahead: "I'm sorry, this child is too reckless and has caused you trouble."

"Huh? You are..."

"Chiquan?"
