Fortunately, the Police Force had enough cells to hold quite a few people, so there was no shortage of space simply because they had arrested too many.
Uncle White Fang changed the order, and the Uchiha officers of the Police Force could only follow the ANBU and begin arresting people instead of continuing the slaughter.
Even so, a single charge still left many dead. The streets had been dyed blood-red, and the flowing blood told everyone that Ronglin was serious this time.
This was the first time since taking office—and also the bloodiest thing he had done.
"You changed my orders?"
Killing had turned into arresting, and Ronglin had naturally noticed. On the rooftop of the Hokage Building, Ronglin looked at Uncle White Fang and Minato, who were half-kneeling on the ground, then suddenly burst into laughter.
"Not bad. You can even change my orders now. Do you think I'm not qualified to be the Fourth Hokage?"
Uncle White Fang knew that Ronglin was furious. It was best not to argue with him at a time like this, so he remained silent.
He was the one who had changed the order. He did not want to see so many people who knew nothing about the situation die.
"This subordinate would not dare, Lord Hokage. It was because..."
Uncle White Fang stayed silent, but Minato began to explain. He even tried to take responsibility upon himself, intending to bear the consequences alongside Uncle White Fang.
Raising a hand to stop Minato's explanation, Ronglin looked at the two of them and said, "I understand what you mean. Once too many people die, the panic caused will be enormous."
That was certain. As long as too many people died, panic was inevitable. Even now, it had already caused no small amount of trouble.
