Taking Over as Captain of the Police Force!

Uchiha Shisui shook his head. "You won't be a match for me."

"Even if you've awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan as well, your Eye Power is still far too far behind mine, having only just opened your eyes..."

"You simply don't understand the ultimate power of the Mangekyō Sharingan..."

Of course Qianyu understood, but he had no interest in wasting words on him.

Uchiha Shisui then glanced at Fugaku Uchiha.

"Clan Head Fugaku, from now on..."

"Please treat me well."

Fugaku's heart jolted. Shisui had called him Clan Head Fugaku rather than Lord Clan Head, making his stance perfectly clear.

After saying that, Uchiha Shisui led the Anbu away without another word.

Fugaku watched his retreating back and sighed.

"What a pitiful man..."

Qianyu said indifferently, "Pitiful people must have something hateful about them."

"That was his own choice."

Fugaku fell silent for a moment. Then, as though he had made an immense decision, he took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice.

"Qianyu, from today onward..."

"You will be the captain of the Police Force!"

Chapter 37: Taking Over as Captain of the Police Force!

The moment Fugaku said those words, every Uchiha clan member in the Police Force was stunned.

"Lord Clan Head, you..."

"This..."

Qianyu, too, looked at Fugaku Uchiha from inside the prison cell.

"Lord Clan Head, what do you mean by this?"

Fugaku gave a bitter smile.

"Qianyu, you can see it clearly as well. Uchiha Shisui has now become the captain of the Anbu. He has plainly chosen to stand against our Uchiha clan."

"And the one capable of contending with him, the one capable of saving the Uchiha clan from its fate..."

"Is only you!"

The other clan members fell silent as well.

They knew Uchiha Shisui's strength better than anyone.

A peerless genius, the number one expert, the strongest, Body Flicker Shisui...

Each of his titles not only shook the clan, but resounded throughout the entire shinobi world!

Even Fugaku, the clan head, was no match for him.

Yet now, Uchiha Qianyu had suddenly emerged.

He had even awakened the second pair of Mangekyō Sharingan within the clan!

Perhaps this was fate.

Qianyu understood what he meant as well.

"But I'm still in prison."

Fugaku smiled bitterly. "Would it really be difficult for you to get out if you wanted to?"

Qianyu shook his head.

Fugaku could only say, "It doesn't matter. Whether you remain in prison or not, you can still be the captain of the Police Force."

"As for me, I'm already deeply ashamed to remain this clan head..."

After pondering for a moment, Qianyu said in a deep voice, "Lord Clan Head, you should understand..."

"Once I become the captain of the Police Force, the entire Police Force's style and methods from now on..."

"Will be completely different!"

Fugaku nodded. "I understand."

"And I have already made my resolve."

"The facts have proven that you were the one in the right..."

"Carry out the justice in your heart in the name of the captain of the Police Force!"

"You understand too, don't you? To carry out justice, power itself is not enough. Authority is also indispensable!"

Qianyu silently nodded.

"I understand."

"I... accept."

Thus, from that moment onward, Qianyu took over the position of captain of the Police Force.

Fugaku smiled in satisfaction.

Though the future remained dark and unclear, though the road ahead was still rough and treacherous...

At least the Uchiha clan had hope once more.

"Qianyu, are you really not leaving?"

Qianyu remained silent.

Fugaku shook his head and passed over all the gifts the villagers had brought, placing them inside the cell.

"Don't worry. Within three days, I will definitely bring the truth to light."

"Mm."

After saying that, Fugaku prepared to leave with the clan members as well.

Yakumi Uchiha, along with the Police Force members who had originally followed Qianyu and those who had yet to follow him, all bid him farewell in unison.

"We're leaving..."

"Captain!"

Qianyu gave a faint smile.

Before long, the entire Anbu prison returned to its usual gloomy terror.

As the new captain of the Anbu, Uchiha Shisui left behind an Anbu member codenamed "Rinkaku" to replace Kenpei Aburame and take charge of the Anbu prison.

Rinkaku and the newly reorganized prison guard unit stared at Uchiha Qianyu deep within the prison, their hearts filled with fear and unease...

They could not understand what this man was thinking, or why he still refused to leave...

Qianyu opened his eyes, glanced at them, and said coldly.

"Carry these corpses out."

"Clean this place up."

Rinkaku and the other Anbu guards were both shocked and furious, but in the end...

They obediently did as they were told...

After all, there were not only the corpses of those criminals inside, but also those of Kenpei Aburame and the other Anbu members...

From beginning to end, Qianyu let them clean up while he quietly continued his training.

Anbu branch, Torture Department.

This was a special department led by Ibiki Morino.

Its responsibilities were simple...

Interrogation and torture!

Ibiki Morino was known as a sadistic madman, skilled at tormenting and questioning prisoners on both physical and mental levels.

Prisoners who encountered him could only pray for a swift death.

But at this moment, he was not the only person in his domain.

Kakashi Hatake, Inoichi Yamanaka, and Yashiro Uchiha were also taking part in the interrogation with him.

And there was only one target.

A young Uchiha clan member, a Police Force member...

Uchiha Yamikaze.

Though he was terrified beyond measure, when he thought of Aoki and Captain Qianyu, he did not shrink back in the slightest.

After mind reading, searching, memory examination, interrogation, questioning, threats, inducements, and repeated cross-examinations...

The four members of the investigative team finally stopped.

Kakashi Hatake had been appointed by Uchiha Qianyu and Lord Hokage as the leader of the investigation team.

Behind his mask, a complicated look flickered in his eyes.

"What do you all think?"

Ibiki Morino said coldly, "There are no problems."

"Everything he said was true."

Inoichi Yamanaka hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Judging from the memories I searched, that is indeed the case. They fully corroborate his testimony..."

Kakashi Hatake appeared unconcerned as he glanced toward Yashiro Uchiha.

"So, on that day, while Uchiha Yamikaze and Uchiha Aoki were patrolling the village as members of the Police Force, they discovered a group of shinobi beating a woman. When they stepped forward to question them, they were refused. Uchiha Aoki then acted to save the woman, only to be ambushed by her and severely injured..."
