The Hyuga the Anbu informed the three leaders of the matter. The First Hokage Senju Hashirama, merely frowned, glanced at Senju Tobirama, and said, "Brother, your disciple is a bit too bloodthirsty. Isn't treating an already arrested criminal a bit..."
"Brother! Enough! Don't you know who those people are? Over the years, they've committed countless robberies, raped countless women and villagers, and crossed the moral and legal red lines. Do you really think you can be merciful to them? Let me tell you, you're too naive!" Senju Tobirama directly confronted Senju Hashirama.
Senju Hashirama pursed his lips, not daring to speak. His second brother was so fierce and scary! Senju Tobirama glanced at him and snorted, "You're not the Hokage anymore! My granddaughter's husband is the Hokage, and his governing philosophy coincides with mine, except for his attitude towards the Uchiha Clan."
In short, Uchiha Kō was the Hokage he admired most. In terms of strength, character, political ability, and governing skills, he far Sarutobi Hiruzen. Sometimes, he would even stay up late to study the policies he had been implementing against Akatsuki and appreciate their subtleties.
Uchiha and Uchiha Izuna are so lucky to have such a powerful grandson as their heir. How could their clan not prosper, how could Konoha not flourish! What a blessed grandson...
After giving a sum of money Hyuga the Hyuga Anbu, Uzumaki Mito turned back into the courtyard. Overhearing the conversation inside, she couldn't help but say, "Hashirama, listen to your second brother! Besides, don't you believe in Owl's strength?"
Senju Hashirama suddenly recalled the scene of being overpowered by Uchiha Kō, and his face darkened. "Forget it, forget it! I only said it to protect Uchiha Kō's reputation!"
"Sometimes, what villagers need is fairness, not the face of a so-called leader. By doing this, he not only affirmed Shimura Danzō, but also told the villagers that it was Uchiha Kō who disapproved of the three robbers, so he ordered Danzo to take action!"
"I think that apart from those who are inherently corrupt or criminals, all the villagers should be grateful for Uchiha Kō's ideas. Moreover, his subordinates have his endorsement and protection, so they will be even more loyal to him Uchiha Kō."
"It can win over subordinates and appease villagers. How could it cause any harm?" Senju Tobirama said helplessly. He saw through the brilliance of Uchiha Kō's move at a glance, but his elder brother Senju Hashirama still cared about Uchiha Kō's reputation.
You can only say his older brother is good at fighting, but to say he can govern a village? Sorry, let me laugh for a bit first, Senju Tobirama shook his head.
Senju Hashirama sighed, "You politicians are all corrupt!"
In prison
Shukaku communicated telepathically with Danzo, saying, "Danzo, the person monitoring you has left. He seems to be in a good mood!"
Shimura Danzō nodded. "I just wonder if the Lord Hokage will be affected."
Shukaku thought to himself, "It shouldn't be; he has a very high reputation among the people!"
Shimura Danzō nodded, returning to reality. He looked at the bandit leader in front of him and sneered, "Your two younger brothers have been crippled. Do you think it would be appropriate if you hadn't been crippled as well?"
The bandit leader trembled. "Please, Danzo, spare my life! I know I was wrong, please give me a way out!" The bandit leader couldn't imagine what people would think of him if his hands and feet were crippled; he wouldn't even have the most basic ability to survive.
Shimura Danzō was too lazy to waste words. Whether he crippled two or three, it was all the same. So he gave Shukaku a look, and Shukaku nodded in agreement. Then he summoned the Sand Binding Coffin, wrapped it around the bandit leader, and then, controlling the force, crushed his limbs before releasing him!
Apart from its limbs, its internal organs were completely undamaged! Shimura Danzō glanced at Shukaku and gave it a thumbs up. The little Shukaku snorted, shrunk down arrogantly, and sat on Danzo's shoulder.
Surprisingly, Danzo's shoulders actually felt quite comfortable after sitting for so long! Shukaku was secretly delighted!
The gang leader was convulsing, tears and snot streaming down his face. His trousers, soaked with urine, emitted a foul stench. His face was filled with terror, and his eyes held a barely perceptible hint of resentment as he looked at Shimura Danzō, but he quickly concealed it.
"Danzo, he just unleashed extreme malice upon you. Why don't you just kill him? He's disgusting!" One-Tail Shukaku, sensing his malice, narrowed his eyes and prepared to attack.
"Forget it, don't dirty your hands. In another month, those three will be sentenced," Shimura Danzō laughed.
"Oh, right, you don't know this yet, do you? After you were arrested, many of the people you harmed jointly reported you. Your crimes were changed from robbery to rape, murder, and disposing of a body, which carries the death penalty."
The gang leader was stunned. "Impossible! We didn't confess. Why are you convicting us?"
"Heh, the evidence is conclusive. Whether you admit it or not is irrelevant. Enjoy the rest of your month." Shimura Danzō opened the cell, walked out, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and threw it in front of the prison.
The gang leader's face was ashen. He had known all along that they would get into trouble sooner or later. And the murder and rape were basically none of his business; it was just his two younger brothers who had done it. But today, they were all going to be held responsible. Damn it!
He transferred his hatred to the Second Brother and Third Brother robbers, and began to angrily curse them, "I always told you not to kill people and always to lust after women, and now look what's happened, we're all going to die!"
The Second Brother robber lowered his head in remorse. He always had an urge to kill, which always caused him to miss. The Third Brother robber, on the other hand, glared at his eldest brother with resentment. "Big brother, this is the last time I'll call you big brother. I thought you were a resourceful and loyal big brother."
"I never thought I'd see your true colors only when I was about to die. You're a coward, afraid of death, and insatiably greedy," the Third Brother sneered.
"Shut up!" The Third Brother robber, as if his sore spot had been hit, stopped talking. Even if his boss was ruthless, he couldn't be unjust. Besides, he had basically been the one who raped the women, and he had implicated his boss. Perhaps his former boss hadn't done anything bad to him out of self-interest.
Therefore, the Third Brother shut his mouth and even closed his eyes, and asked the second brother to cover his ears, not wanting to hear it anymore.
Perhaps exhausted from cursing, or perhaps heartbroken, the gang leader didn't want to say a word at this moment, lying on the ground, utterly despondent.
Shimura Danzō walked out of the prison, took a deep breath of the fresh air, and exhaled, "Phew~ I'm alive again! I feel much better too!"
Shukaku remained silent, simply taking an apple from the scroll. "Danzo, want some?"
Shimura Danzō smiled and patted Shukaku's head. The two of them headed towards the school. No matter what, Shimura Danzō had to explain what had happened to Uchiha Kō in person!
