At this time, Chiba was still nominally just the captain of the police force.
However, it is clear to everyone that he has already seized control of the entire Hidden Leaf Village.
Moreover, now there is also Uchiha Fugaku, the clan leader who has also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.
With the Senju, Sarutobi, Shimura, and other clans now exterminated—
The Uchiha clan has become the true absolute overlord!
A Hokage meeting without a Hokage.
Chiyu said calmly, "Hiruzen Sarutobi is guilty of heinous crimes and deserves to die. However, as the captain of the police force, I will still act in accordance with the law and publicly try all his crimes."
"Shikaku, Inoichi, and Ibiki."
"Yes."
"You will participate in the interrogation with me."
The group exchanged glances and nodded silently.
Everyone could see clearly that this was Qianyu's way of establishing his authority and gaining the support of the masses by using these people.
Yamanaka Inoichi and Morino Ibiki need no further introduction.
One is the captain of the intelligence department, and the other is the head of the interrogation department; it's only natural that they would participate in the interrogation and investigation.
Nara Shikaku can be considered Konoha's strategist and one of the representative figures of his clan, after all, he is backed not only by the Nara clan, but by the three major clans of Ino-Shika-Cho.
Chiyu wanted him to participate in the investigation and interrogation, both for the sake of fairness and impartiality, and also to intimidate everyone and make the entire Hidden Leaf Village submit!
Hiashi Hyuga spoke up, "Captain Senba, although Hiruzen Sarutobi has fallen, Konoha has also suffered heavy losses."
The losses are considerable.
"The Anbu, the Sarutobi clan, and the Shimura clan are all practically extinct, and even the Uchiha clan suffered casualties—"
"You should know that Hiruzen Sarutobi was negotiating a ceasefire agreement with the Raikage in order to end the war with Kumogakure. Given his usual style, he would definitely make concessions at every turn, even at the cost of national humiliation."
"His sudden resignation is a good thing, but I'm afraid the Hidden Cloud Village will not let this go easily."
"No, it's not just Kumogakure. The Land of Fire is a place of constant warfare, and all the other great powers are eyeing it covetously."
"The situation remains extremely perilous—"
Chiyu said indifferently, "Even if those forces don't perish, if war really breaks out, wouldn't Hiruzen Sarutobi just send the Hyuga, Uchiha, and Ino-Shika-Cho clans to the front lines to fight to the death?"
Whether they are wiped out or not is completely irrelevant.
"As for Kumogakure—"
"If they want war, then let them fight."
Chiyu's words were incisive and resounding, and Hyuga Hiashi nodded in agreement.
"Well said."
Nara Shikaku sighed, "That's true, but Konoha Village also urgently needs internal reform. Root has committed countless atrocities and deserves to die, but the Anbu, responsible for numerous tasks such as espionage, assassination, spying, and surveillance, remains an indispensable department."
"What does Captain Chiba think we should do?"
Qianyu said, "These so-called clandestine operations are simply normal work that is necessary in various villages and countries. There is no need to add the word 'secret department' to them."
"Moreover, the Anbu has long since lost its original function and has become nothing more than a private army directly under the Hokage."
"Kakashi."
"—Yes, Lord Senba."
At this moment, Kakashi Hatake was still not fully recovered from the shock and fear.
However, when he heard Qianyu call him, he quickly responded.
"The work of the covert operations will be handed over to you."
Kakashi Hatake was somewhat embarrassed.
"Lord Senba, I..."
Qianyu said calmly, "You were originally the captain of the Dark Division, and you have some loyal subordinates under you. No one is more suitable for this job than you."
Kakashi Hatake nodded and said, "Since it is Lord Chiba's order, I will do my best."
"Um."
"Remember, the new secret service doesn't need to operate in secrecy. We can recruit more suitable talents from various families and villages."
The heads of all the major families were instantly moved.
Clearly, Chiba is preparing to be truly inclusive, unlike Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, who only cultivated their own trusted confidants from a young age!
Take the Hyuga clan as an example. They possess the Byakugan bloodline limit, which makes them very suitable for various intelligence gathering and espionage work. However, they have almost never been recruited into the Anbu.
The Aburame clan is the opposite. Although their family's secret techniques are inherently hidden and unconventional, the talented members of the family are often absorbed by Danzo Shimura's Root organization.
For example, Aburame Ryoma, Aburame Tokunoe, etc.
These people were originally the backbone of their families, but after joining the Root, they completely disappeared without a trace, almost as if they never existed!
This is also something that the Aburame clan resents.
Now that Chiba has opened up the Anbu, these families and suitable ninjas can unleash their full potential and show their skills.
For a moment, all the families were secretly delighted.
They also believed in Qianyu, who always kept his word and did what he said he would do.
For example, the police force has always been exclusive to the Uchiha clan, but it has also recruited outsiders like Kakashi Hatake, who even became a squad leader.
Chiyu assigned tasks one by one to restore order to the currently chaotic and fearful Konoha Village.
"The Hyuga clan is responsible for reconnaissance and intelligence gathering, the Akimichi clan for defense and protection, the Nara clan for strategizing and commanding, the Yamanaka clan for intelligence analysis, and the Inuzuka and Aburame clans for providing central support and are ready to be deployed at any time."
"As for the Uchiha clan and the police force, we must strengthen patrols and defenses within the village and not let our guard down for a moment."
"Although Hiruzen Sarutobi has been captured alive, there may still be remnants of his followers causing trouble. Once discovered, they must be suppressed immediately without hesitation!"
"yes!"
Qianyu's orders were strict and well-arranged, and everyone obeyed them with awe.
At this time, Konoha Village definitely needs such a strong leader!
"Three days from now, I demand the results of Hiruzen Sarutobi's interrogation. He must be executed publicly in front of the entire village's ninjas and villagers!"
"yes!"
During these three days, Konoha Village appeared to be in turmoil, but in reality, things proceeded in an orderly manner.
Each of the major families performed their duties diligently and without any slackening.
The duties that Qianyu assigned to them were essentially a form of authority, which, for each of the major families, actually represented an increase in their interests.
They were naturally delighted and willing.
at the same time.
The interrogation of Hiruzen Sarutobi was of paramount importance.
He knew this day might come, so he set up many seals, barriers, restrictions, and curses in his mind in advance to prevent these confidential information from being leaked.
but-
With Qianyu personally involved, these cursed seals and barriers were rendered useless.
With the addition of skilled interrogators like Yamanaka Inoichi and Morino Ibiki, they quickly broke through all of Hiruzen Sarutobi's defenses, and his past crimes and misdeeds were thoroughly unearthed, one by one—
Upon seeing this, Yamanaka Inoichi and Morino Ibiki exchanged horrified glances.
They weren't exactly innocent and carefree children.
They were well aware that corruption, decadence, darkness, and filth existed within Konoha's upper echelons.
However, I never expected it to get to this extent!
Now it seems that the complete downfall and annihilation of Hiruzen Sarutobi and his ilk at the hands of Chiba is not only a matter of course!
This is truly gratifying!
Of course, it wasn't just Hiruzen Sarutobi. Koharu Utatane, who was captured alive, along with other surviving members of the Anbu and other important figures from the Sarutobi clan, were also interrogated and tortured. Their interrogations, combined with the memories of sin in Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind, completely confirmed all that darkness and filth—
Besides.
Hiashi Hyuga also brought new information.
"Upon hearing of Hiruzen Sarutobi's downfall, the Raikage of Kumogakure, knowing that the previously agreed-upon ceasefire agreements were completely null and void, was furious and prepared to negotiate forcefully with Konoha Village—"
"The spearhead is aimed directly at Lord Senyu—"
"That's understandable. It was you, Lord Senba, who killed the entire delegation from Kumogakure. Now that you've ruined his plans, he's unlikely to let this go."
Qianyu calmly replied, "I understand."
Hiashi Hyuga hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"explain."
"Ahem, Lord Chiyu, Hiruzen Sarutobi certainly deserved his punishment, but isn't it somewhat inappropriate to publicly try a former Hokage?"
"After all, he also represents the image of Konoha Village. If those crimes are made public, Konoha Village will become a laughing stock—"
Qianyu shook her head calmly.
"The public trial of Hiruzen Sarutobi is precisely to protect the image of Konoha Village."
"Only by destroying can we build anew. If we don't thoroughly expose this filth and decay to everyone, how can they see my determination to rebuild the nation?"
Hiashi Hyuga nodded: "However, shouldn't we inform the Daimyo of the Land of Fire in advance?"
When asked about this, Qianyu simply said two words.
"No need."
Hiashi Hyuga: "—Yes."
e. ggn
Three days later.
The former Hokage Building is now a collapsed ruin.
In this chaotic scene, Chiba announced to the entire Hidden Leaf Village that Hiruzen Sarutobi would be publicly executed!
In an instant, the entire village was in an uproar!
Early on, the ruins were already crowded with ninjas and villagers, making a lot of noise and discussing.
In many people's eyes, Hiruzen Sarutobi was still that kind and gentle old man. How could something like this suddenly happen?
It's simply unbelievable.
Moreover, many people believe that the Uchiha clan is inherently evil, and that Uchiha Chiba is particularly ruthless and cruel, which makes them very dissatisfied.
Of course, many villagers also agreed with Qianyu's approach. His previous actions of acting on behalf of Heaven, punishing evil and promoting good, and eradicating evil completely protected the interests of ordinary villagers and the kind-hearted, which made his reputation grow day by day.
Just as the sun was at its zenith.
Chiyu appeared atop the Hokage Building, which had mostly collapsed.
Beside him were Fugaku Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, and others.
Subsequently, the heads of various clans and important figures of Konoha Village all made their appearances.
Behind all these people, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and the others, completely sealed and suppressed, were brought up in utter disgrace, their faces ashen, their spirits broken, like walking corpses.
Public execution!!!
Seeing the once high and mighty Hokage, a Konoha elder, now a prisoner, looking utterly dejected and pitiful, the crowd erupted in uproar and uproar.
"It really is the Hokage!"
"How...how could it have turned out like this—"
"What on earth happened?!"
"It must be the Uchiha clan! They launched a rebellion and plotted to kidnap the Hokage!"
"Damn it—release the Hokage at once!"
Of course, there are also completely different voices, which show that people are very pleased.
Chiba ignored them all and simply nodded calmly to Yamanaka Inoichi and Morino Ibiki.
Yamanaka Inoichi coughed and stepped forward.
"Fellow ninjas and villagers of Konoha, after three days and three nights of interrogation, the heinous crimes committed by the former Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, have now been fully ascertained. We are now publicly interrogating him before the entire village, and announcing this to the world!"
"The sins committed by Hiruzen Sarutobi include at least the following ten major crimes!!!"
