Uchiha Fugaku's words landed like a bombshell, instantly throwing the Uchiha ninja below into an uproar.

"Why are Police Force operations being suspended? Does Konoha's upper management want to seize control of the Police Force?"

"Exactly who will have their operations suspended?"

The Uchiha ninja voiced their doubts to Uchiha Fugaku one after another. Among them were Uchiha chunin who had only recently joined the Police Force, as well as Uchiha jonin who had worked there for over a decade.

Even genin who had yet to join the Uchiha Police Force could not help asking questions, believing that the Police Force was about to be suppressed by the higher-ups.

Uchiha Fugaku looked toward Shisui. This was how deeply the Uchiha Clan was now tied to the Police Force. If anyone wanted to separate the Uchiha from the Police Force, the Uchiha themselves would be the first to object.

Shisui nodded, rose to his feet, and said, "Everyone, please quiet down for a moment and let me explain."

A large number of Uchiha fell silent and looked quietly at Shisui.

Although Shisui was young, his strength and accomplishments had earned him prestige within the Uchiha Clan that did not lose out to that of the Uchiha elders.

No Uchiha would dislike a clansman who was powerful and devoted to the clan.

"First, the operations of only some Police Force ninja will be temporarily suspended. It is only temporary; they will not be removed from their positions," Shisui explained.

"Second, this is not because the higher-ups want to interfere with the Police Force's authority. It is because the Fourth Hokage believes in the Uchiha Clan's strength."

The Uchiha ninja looked at Shisui in confusion. How did this involve the Fourth Hokage, and why would believing in their strength mean suspending their operations?
