This Uchiha Is Righteously Evil! Part 4

"Is there a problem?"

Qianyu remained unmoved.

Fugaku was speechless.

"If Lord Hokage insists on holding someone accountable, then have the clan head deal with me personally."

"Regardless of whether the clan head or Lord Hokage punishes me..."

"I will accept it."

After saying this, Qianyu turned and left.

Inside the Police Force headquarters, Fugaku Uchiha and his companions exchanged bitter smiles and shook their heads.

The Hokage's office was filled with smoke.

The pipe of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, occasionally emitted a faint glow in the dimness.

He appeared somewhat weary, yet he forced himself to continue reviewing documents.

Behind him, Shimura Danzo hid in the darkness, gazing at Hiruzen Sarutobi's back. His grim face was expressionless, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The door was suddenly knocked.

"Lord Hokage."

Hiruzen Sarutobi temporarily put down the documents, frowning slightly. "Anbu?"

"Come in."

"Yes."

Two Anbu members wearing eerie masks pushed the door open.

"What, is there any unusual activity from the Uchiha clan?"

The two Anbu members exchanged a glance behind their masks.

"We don't know if it counts as unusual activity..."

"That man named Uchiha Qianyu has killed two more Konoha civilians..."

The pipe in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand trembled slightly.

"That cold-blooded bastard again?"

"What was it for this time?"

The two recounted the entire story.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression also changed.

"Hmph, this man is getting more and more out of hand, he's simply lawless!"

"The Second Hokage created the Police Force merely to keep the Uchiha clan away from the political core, and at the same time, to sow discord between them and the Konoha villagers and ninja..."

"Uchiha Qianyu... does this bastard really think he has the power of life and death?!"

From the darkness behind him, a cold laugh echoed.

"Hiruzen, according to your words, Uchiha Qianyu's brutal and extreme methods would only make the villagers and ninja detest the Uchiha clan even more, wouldn't they?"

"Wouldn't that be exactly what you want?"

"Why are you still so agitated?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said coldly, "That's a different matter!"

"If the Uchiha clan and the Police Force can decide the life and death of civilians without the Hokage's approval, then where is Konoha's authority? Where is its dignity?"

Shimura Danzo let out a scoff.

"I don't think it's Konoha's authority or dignity..."

"It's your authority and dignity as Hokage, isn't it?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes flickered towards the darkness behind him, and he cast a cold glance.

"Is there a difference?"

Shimura Danzo snorted and did not answer the question.

The two Anbu members cautiously probed, "Lord Hokage, will you personally hold the Police Force accountable for this matter?"

"Or even..."

"Directly order Clan Head Fugaku to hand over that man named Uchiha Qianyu?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep puff from his pipe and then exhaled the smoke heavily.

"Who knows if Fugaku approved this behind the scenes?"

"The situation between the Uchiha clan and the village is so tense right now. If he still allows that bastard Qianyu to do such things, is he prepared for a complete break?"

Shimura Danzo's eyes gleamed slightly in the darkness.

"Wouldn't that be even better?"

"This tumor that's been attached to Konoha since its very inception can finally be thoroughly excised in our generation!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi glared at him, "Danzo, watch your words!"

"Hmph, it's because you're too indecisive, Hiruzen!"

"Shut up, Danzo! I am the Hokage!"

"...You will regret this, Hiruzen."

Shimura Danzo's figure disappeared into the darkness, leaving through a hidden gate.

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered in the silence for a long time.

"I shall use this incident to…"

"Personally visit the Police Force and probe the Uchiha clan's stance!"

Chapter 4: City of Sin

Uchiha Qianyu handed over his patrol duties and silently returned home.

He hadn't slacked off in the slightest.

Even without the good deeds system he had now, he was already an overachiever, desperately seizing every spare moment to train.

Even at this moment, though he had things on his mind, he still didn't neglect his training.

He closed his eyes silently, practicing the most basic chakra refining technique for all ninjas.

Qianyu's heart slowly calmed.

He never regretted his actions.

It wasn't just because his original belief was like that.

It was more because, in his opinion, this Konoha village was inherently sinful from the start.

It was a City of Sin.

This original sin wasn't limited to Konoha's higher-ups, elite ninjas, or even the most ordinary villagers.

Selfishness, ignorance, greed, arrogance, jealousy, indifference...

The list went on and on.

Living here, Qianyu often felt an unimaginable sense of oppression.

And his way of venting this oppression was to enact justice in his own way.

Extreme?

He never thought he was extreme.

If anything, the extreme ones were this village, this ninja world, and certainly not himself.

The next day, at the Police Force headquarters.

Fugaku Uchiha was frantically dealing with the mess Qianyu had left behind.

Fortunately, that family of three was indeed completely wiped out.

They didn't have any friends or family left in the world.

Aside from some neighbors, no one could complain.

Fugaku sent people to properly bury the bodies of the couple.

As for their property...

It had already been squandered completely by that gambling addict.

Aside from an old house, there was practically nothing left.

Even so, when Fugaku was preparing to deal with the old house, several villagers suddenly jumped out, claiming to be friends, relatives, and confidantes of the couple, saying that they had left word before their deaths that they wanted the old house to be left to them...

Fugaku was already feeling agitated and didn't have the mood to deal with this tangled mess, so he handed it over entirely to the most experienced elder, Yashiro Uchiha.

Just as he was about to relax, he suddenly sensed a powerful chakra approaching.

"Hm? This chakra is..."

He shot to his feet and hurried out to greet the visitor personally.

"Lord Hokage."

The person who arrived was none other than Konoha's Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He smoked his pipe, wore the hat symbolizing the Hokage, and on his weathered, wrinkled old face, he wore his usual kind and gentle smile.

Behind him followed four Anbu ninjas wearing peculiar masks.

"Clan Head Fugaku, I hope my unannounced visit hasn't disrupted your Police Force's work?"
