Sarutobi Asuma Left

Meanwhile, at the main gate of Konoha, the two gatekeepers, Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane, were resting at home; the gates of Konoha were closed.

Aburame Torune, Kameida Meikai, and a group of Police Force personnel, after a night of running, finally returned to Konoha.

Looking at the closed door, Aburame Torune spoke directly, "We need to jump in. The Minister has already begun his operation. We must get the letter of introduction to the Minister as soon as possible; only then will it be a legitimate coup."

Upon hearing this, Kameida Meikai said excitedly, "Everyone, hurry up! The Sarutobi Clan is the richest family in the village. If the captain and the others eat all the meat, we won't even get a sip of soup. That would be a huge loss!"

The members of the Police Force were all surprised to hear this, and they said one after another, "It's better to stay in the village. You can make a living off the shady side Tenten. Unlike us, we have to go to the Land of Fire to find high-ranking officials, exposed to the sun and rain Tenten. Now that we're back, we can't even get a sip of soup."

Immediately, a large group of Police Force personnel followed Aburame Torune, leaping over the large iron gates of Konoha and heading towards the Sarutobi Clan.

They were still shouting, "Minister, wait a minute, there's a coup! We brought you the letter of introduction. To stage a coup without the letter of introduction is treason!"

Aburame Torune immediately rebuked, "You're talking utter nonsense! Don't tarnish the Minister's reputation. It was Minister Zhang himself who did it; he orchestrated the coup."

Upon hearing Torune's words, the Police Force personnel realized their mistake and said awkwardly, "We all forgot that our commander is about to become the Fifth Hokage; we can't ruin his reputation."

However, Minister Zhang is Konoha Madman; he doesn't need a good reputation and can be dragged out to take the blame at any time.

Upon hearing Aburame Torune said with a serious expression, "Remember this for next time, and don't overstep your bounds again."

There's an unwritten rule in the Police Force: all the good deeds are done by Qingcheng, and all the bad deeds are done by Shouhon Yihan. Anyone who crosses that line will end up cleaning toilets and can forget about patrolling the streets of Konoha forever.

Qingyu, along with members of the Police Force, formed an encirclement, completely surrounding the Sarutobi Clan, ensuring that not even a fly could escape.

The movements of the Police Force personnel were always very grand. Their rapid advance had awakened many villagers. When they opened their windows, they saw the well-organized Police Force personnel following Qingcheng, heading directly towards the Sarutobi Clan.

All the villagers exclaimed excitedly, "Minister Qingcheng has finally made his move! The Evil Hiruzen Sarutobi is about to be captured!"

Inside the Hokage Building, Mitokado Homura Hokage Building all the Anbu Ninja to stand by, forbidding even those on leave from leaving. He declared, "I have received orders from the Third Hokage. Everyone, wait here for Tsunade to return. Do not make any rash moves."

Immediately, a large group of Anbu Ninja were waiting at the Hokage Building. Kakashi was also there, holding a collector's edition of "Icha Icha Paradise," and sat down to read.

"This means that what's happening outside is none of my business," he said. The other Anbu Ninja, seeing Kakashi's relaxed demeanor, also sat down, awaiting the orders of Advisor Homura.

Qingcheng's task for Mitokado Homura was to order all the Anbu Ninja to remain inactive, forbidding them from supporting the Sarutobi Clan and interfering with the battle between the Police Force and the Sarutobi Clan.

Mitokado Homura also wore a bitter expression, thinking to himself, "Hiruzen, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do. They kidnapped my three-year-old grandson, my only grandson."

A group of Anbu Ninja, seeing the tense expression on Mitokado Homura's face, asked again, "Advisor Homura, are we really not going to help the Third Hokage? If they can't withstand the Police Force's attack, the Sarutobi Clan might be destroyed by Uchiha Qingcheng."

Seeing this, Mitokado Homura immediately reprimanded, "Execute Hiruzen's orders. Once Tsunade returns, we'll act alongside Tsunade and launch a pincer attack on the Uchiha Clan. Hiruzen Sarutobi will hold out. Once Tsunade returns, victory will be ours."

Upon hearing this, all the Anbu Ninja replied with serious expressions, "We understand, Advisor Homura."

Utatane Koharu, who hadn't slept all night, watched as her daughter and granddaughter vanished. A letter remained on the table, starkly stating, "If you want your granddaughter and daughter alive, you'd better obey. They're having a terrible time at the Police Force."

You wouldn't want your granddaughter to become a corpse, would you? (To Shouhon Yihan Benyihan)

Mitokado Homura's grandson, as well as Utatane Koharu's granddaughter and daughter, were all beaten up by Yamanaka Fu and then taken to the Police Force jail. Utatane Koharu's daughter, Utatane Kohana, was even stripped naked by Yamanaka Fu and had nude photos taken of her.

Now, Utatane Koharu was filled with regret and said with a face full of self-blame, "If I had known, I wouldn't have tried to persuade Homura. That Evil Uchiha Qingcheng has no ninja ethics at all. He even kidnapped my daughter. I have never seen such a ninja. They are not human. If they have any ability, they should come at me."

Meanwhile, on the Sarutobi Clan's side, Sarutobi Aiki watched as Qingcheng, along with members of the Police Force, surrounded his entire clan.

He immediately ran to Hiruzen Sarutobi's room and shouted, "Third Hokage, something terrible has happened! Uchiha Qingcheng has staged a coup! He's brought the Police Force and surrounded our Sarutobi Clan!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was still asleep, sat up abruptly upon hearing the voice outside the door, exclaiming in shock, "What? The Uchiha Qingcheng staged a coup?"

It was only Hiruzen Sarutobi, having consumed the Sarutobi Clan's secret medicine and rested for most of the night, had regained some color in his body. However, upon hearing this news, his face turned pale again.

Hearing the Third Hokage's panicked words, Sarutobi Aiki spoke again, "Third Hokage Uncle, you must think of something quickly! This Evil Uchiha will be at my doorstep soon!"

Upon seeing this, the Third Hokage immediately donned his battle suit and black helmet, and shouted, "Quickly organize the clan members! We must fight this Uchiha Qingcheng to the death!"

The members of the Sarutobi Clan, seeing the massive Police Force surrounding their clan, exclaimed in shock, "That Evil Uchiha finally made his move! I knew he was trying to usurp the throne; all the Uchiha Clan are like that!"

Sarutobi Shirauo was also shocked to see that Sarutobi Asuma had already left Konoha and gone straight to the Land of Fire, leaving behind a letter that read, "Konoha is really not a good place for me. The woman I love was taken by the Uchiha Clan, and my father is a pedophile. I'm leaving here to wander in the Land of Fire."
