He just looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen seriously, silently waiting for an explanation from him.
Torifu Koharu and Mitokado Homura wanted to stop Danzo, but ultimately gave up.
Finally.
They could only look at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
They demanded an explanation from him!
Sarutobi Hiruzen was well aware of this.
After a helpless sigh, he didn't hesitate at all and directly handed the letter down.
Next.
The entire conference room began to stir.
Everyone looked surprised and then started to read the letter.
Then.
After everyone finished reading the letter, their faces were a riot of emotions.
Surprise, anger, fear, relief... all sorts of feelings, too many to list!
But, what they all shared was this:
Everyone gasped, and a chill ran down their spines.
Some people's bodies even began to tremble slightly.
Uchiha Jin was too ruthless!
He was willing to sacrifice the entire Uchiha Clan, even if it meant a mutual destruction with them!
It was almost imaginable.
If they had truly decided to annihilate the Uchiha Clan tonight, they might have succeeded.
However, the price would be that...
The geniuses, high-ranking members, and Jonin of their various Ninja Clans, including their wives, children, and elders, would all die tonight.
Of course, at this moment.
They also understood why Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to make this matter public.
Because Uchiha Jin, with his Mangekyo Sharingan, had already infiltrated deep into the Sarutobi Clan's territory.
As soon as they invaded the Uchiha Clan and the signal flare went up...
While other Ninja Clans might be fine, the Sarutobi Clan would be doomed!
One must know that...
On a night not long ago, Uchiha Jin had used his Mangekyo ability.
It was not only strange and powerful...
Most importantly, it was unresolvable!
There were no Chakra fluctuations at all, making it impossible to defend against.
Therefore, it was imaginable that...
If Uchiha Jin, that old sly fox who trampled the dignity of the strong, were to go on a killing spree directly within the Sarutobi Clan...
Heh heh!
There was no need to even consider it; the Sarutobi Clan would be annihilated.
And what was infuriating was that...
Uchiha Jin also said that after annihilating the Sarutobi Clan tonight, he would turn and become a rogue ninja.
From now on, he would target Konoha, killing everyone he saw!
Faced with such a crazy and powerful, yet despicable and shameless Uchiha Jin, this group of people truly had no way to deal with him.
Even if Konoha had many strong individuals, and could even call back Konoha's Sannin...
But these strong individuals couldn't possibly keep an eye on everyone in Konoha 24 hours a day, could they?
Besides.
They couldn't possibly keep track of everyone!
Those who understood this point naturally also understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's actions.
Tonight.
This battle could not be fought!.
Chapter 118: The True Police Force, a Colossus!
The conference hall was utterly silent.
Everyone's expressions were solemn, but no one spoke.
On the contrary.
The various Ninja Clans had already begun to have other thoughts.
One must know that...
The Uchiha Clan had already made it clear this time that their 'legal reform' was specifically to attract allies for themselves.
Therefore, it was imaginable that...
If they chose to align with the Uchiha Clan next, they would certainly gain many benefits for themselves.
Of course, there were also problems.
Choosing to align with the Uchiha Clan meant becoming an enemy of the village.
In the past, they definitely wouldn't have chosen the Uchiha Clan.
After all, the Uchiha Clan's way of thinking was different from normal people; they weren't a good choice for an ally.
But, now it was different!
The one currently in charge of the Uchiha Clan was Uchiha Jin, that old sly fox.
His planning and strategizing abilities were no weaker than the Hokage's side.
Even Nara Shikaku, one would imagine, was no more than that.
Besides that.
This guy was not only ruthless and powerful, but also careful and cautious, always looking three steps ahead.
He was a man who could achieve great things!
With such a powerful, courageous, and resourceful person, backed by the Uchiha Clan, it was quite possible that he could truly succeed in the future.
Thinking of this.
The Ninja Clans present began to weigh their options.
Only the matter of legal reform received no attention.
After all, at the founding of Konoha...
The Police Force inherently possessed this authority; it was just that the Uchiha Clan of the past didn't know how to wield it.
But, now.
With a formidable figure like Uchiha Jin, it was imaginable that the Police Force would undoubtedly make even bigger moves in the future.
The high-ranking members of these Ninja Clans had incredibly sharp eyes.
The Police Force not only possessed judicial power, the ability to modify laws independently, but also held major powers such as arrest, interrogation, sentencing, and execution.
One must know that...
In Uchiha Jin's previous life, various countries implemented a separation of powers.
The three powers were legislative, executive, and judicial!
But, in Konoha.
The Police Force not only simultaneously possessed all three major powers...
Furthermore, playing it a bit cleverly...
The Police Force could even openly establish a ninja unit within Konoha.
Yes.
One must know that the full name of the Police Force was the Konoha Police Force!
