Chapter 45: The Uchiha Clan No Longer Protects Their Own?

The entrance to Konoha Hospital was already crowded with people.

Amidst the cacophony of noise and cries, several Uchiha security guards, wearing vests adorned with the Uchiha clan emblem, stood in a row, hands on the hilts of their swords, arrogantly blocking the hospital entrance and confronting several agitated villagers.

"Back off! Everyone back off!"

The leader, an Uchiha clansman named Uchiha Ra, was a confidant of Uchiha Setsuna.

He looked at the group of civilians before him with disdain, whom he considered like ants: "The police are conducting a case. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to approach! Anyone who dares to take another step forward will be obstructing official business and will be arrested!"

"What kind of case are you handling! You beat someone to death and you won't even let their family members in to see them?!" A middle-aged woman cried out and tried to rush over, but was violently pushed to the ground.

"That's what he deserved! Daring to openly insult the Uchiha clan, this is what happens!" Uchiha Rascal sneered.

A commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd, and the villagers who had just been watching the spectacle now had flames of anger burning in their eyes.

In the shadows of the crowd, a few inconspicuous figures were quietly stirring up emotions.

"Look at this! This is the Uchiha clan! They don't treat us like human beings at all!"

"They killed someone and then sealed off the hospital; is this an attempt to silence them?"

The situation was on the verge of spiraling out of control and escalating into a violent conflict.

"stop!"

A furious roar, brimming with chakra, exploded in everyone's ears like a thunderclap.

Fugaku Uchiha strode over, his face so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water, followed closely by Toru Nishikawa, Minato Namikaze, and several other Uchiha clan members.

Upon seeing the young clan leader arrive, Uchiha not only did not restrain himself, but instead acted as if he had found a powerful backer, pointing at the woman on the ground and saying:

"Captain Fugaku, you've come at the right time. These troublemakers tried to storm the police department's lines, and that drunkard was even more rude, insulting our entire clan..."

"Snapped!"

A crisp, clear slap instantly silenced the noisy scene.

Uchiharo covered his rapidly swelling cheek, staring incredulously at Fugaku in front of him: "Captain... Captain?"

"Who gave you the right to draw your knife against the villagers?"

Fugaku's voice was low and suppressed, a storm raging in his dark eyes. "The police department's duty is to maintain order, not to create panic. Put your knife away!"

"But... that's what Elder Setsuna said, the dignity of the Uchiha is inviolable..." Uchiha Ra was still trying to argue.

"Here, I am the captain!"

Fugaku suddenly grabbed Uchiha by the collar and lifted him up, his eyes fierce like a tiger ready to devour its prey.

"You severely injured someone and then swagger around here. Is this your so-called authority? You're disgracing the Uchiha clan!"

After saying that, Fugaku suddenly flung him to Minato behind him.

"Minato Namikaze, in your capacity as special advisor to the police department, remove his ninja tools, strip him of his disguise, and take him back to the solitary confinement cell! No one is to release him without my orders!"

With lightning speed, Minato Namikaze grabbed Uchiha's hands in an instant. Although he wore his signature smile, the strength in his hands was astonishing, rendering Uchiha unable to move.

"I'm sorry."

This scene completely stunned everyone present.

The villagers watching stared wide-eyed, unable to believe their eyes.

The Uchiha clan, known for their protectiveness and arrogance, actually punished one of their own members in public?

And all for an ordinary citizen?

"Fugaku-senpai, leave the rest to me."

Nishikawa Tetsu walked forward from behind. He didn't look at the stunned security guards, but went straight to the woman who had fallen to the ground.

He knelt down, took out a clean white handkerchief from his pocket, and handed it to her with a gentlemanly and gentle gesture: "Auntie, I'm so sorry. This is due to the police department's inadequate supervision. I am Captain Fugaku's assistant, Nishikawa Tetsu."

"Please rest assured regarding your husband's injuries." Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the hospital entrance. "The best medical ninjas are already inside treating him. The police department will cover all medical expenses, lost wages, and nutritional costs."

"in addition……"

Nishikawa Tetsu stood up, turned to face the surrounding crowd, and raised his voice, making it clear throughout the entire area:

"Captain Fugaku Uchiha has just given the order that the officers suspected of using excessive force have been dismissed and are under investigation on the spot. The police department will not protect any bad apples!"

"If you don't believe me, you can go to the police station entrance tomorrow and look at the notice board. We will publicly announce the results of the trial!"

There was a moment of silence in the crowd, followed by a burst of whispers.

"Really? The Uchiha really made a mistake?"

"That captain was really fierce, he even attacked his own people..."

"It seems what the newspapers said was true; Captain Fugaku is indeed an upright person."

Upon seeing this, the Root ninjas in the shadows changed their expressions. Just as they were about to continue their commotion, they discovered that several sharp gazes had already locked onto them.

These are several elite members of the Uchiha clan that Fugaku Uchiha just brought.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Root ninjas quickly retreated.

……

Half an hour later, outside the hospital emergency room.

"How is it?"

Upon seeing the doctor emerge from inside, Fugaku immediately went to greet him.

"His life has been saved."

The doctor removed his mask, his expression somewhat strange. "However... I detected a trace of a special stimulant in the injured person's blood. This drug can cause emotional excitement, loss of reason, and... dulled pain receptors."

"In other words, he was used as a pawn."

Nishikawa Tetsu leaned against the wall, a cold glint in his eyes. "He was drugged, deliberately provoked the police, got beaten up, seriously injured, and then incited public outrage. This script is really well written."

"Danzo..." Fugaku slammed his fist against the wall, creating several cracks. "That old bastard, he'd even resort to such underhanded tactics to deal with me."

Others might not know, but as the young patriarch of the Uchiha clan, how could he not know? That old man who controlled Root.

"Calm down, senior."

Nishikawa Tetsu stopped the enraged Fugaku, saying, "This may not be a bad thing. Danzo has given us an excellent opportunity to establish our authority."

"What do you mean?"

"Think about it. If you had protected your clansmen this time, it would have solidified the Uchiha clan's reputation for tyranny. But now, you have publicly punished your clansmen and protected the common people."

Nishikawa Tetsu's lips curled into a smile:

"This is what you call putting righteousness before family."

"Tomorrow, I'll have the newspaper rush to print a special edition. I've already thought of the title: 'Iron-Faced and Impartial! The Young Uchiha Clan Leader Beats His Clan Members with Tears in His Eyes, All for the Sake of Restoring Justice to Konoha!'"

Fugaku's lips twitched; the urge to hit someone returned.

"Could you please use a more normal title?"

"No, traffic is king." Nishikawa Tetsu shrugged.

"However, public opinion alone is not enough."

Nishikawa Tetsu's expression turned serious, and he took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Fugaku.

"Since Danzo has given us an excuse, let's go with the flow. Under the pretext of reforming the police department's discipline, let's carry out a major purge within the department."

"Replace all the radicals that Elder Katsuna has placed in key positions."

"The reason is readily available: low level of ideological awareness, which could easily lead to conflicts between the police and the public, and damage the image of the Uchiha clan."

Fugaku looked at the list and took a deep breath.

This is a sharp knife; now that it has been drawn, it must draw blood.

This time, however, the blood that flowed was from the rotting flesh inside the Uchiha clan.

"it is good."

A resolute glint flashed in Fugaku's eyes.

"Let's make our move tonight, Minato. You lead the team to take control of the Third Division; it's full of Setsuna's men."

"Understood!" Minato nodded, without the slightest hesitation in his eyes.

"Che, go contact the Nara family and ask them to write a report on the nature of this incident. Have them put it on the Hokage's desk first thing tomorrow morning."

"no problem."

Looking at Fugaku at this moment, Nishikawa Tetsu finally saw a hint of what a true leader should look like.

No longer constrained by family, no longer swayed by emotions.

Outside the window, it was dark and windy.

Tonight, the Uchiha clan's territory is destined to be sleepless.
