132 Chapter 127
"Coup?" The Sarutobi patriarch's horror was palpable. The gravity of such an accusation weighed heavily upon them all.
Wearing such a monumental accusation was no easy task. The implication of a coup meant that everyone present stood at the mercy of Hokage's decree—their very lives hanging in the balance.
In an instant, the patriarch's demeanor shifted, his mind racing to assess their predicament. Upon reflection, their actions indeed bore the hallmarks of a coup.
However, the sheer magnitude of the consequences began to dawn on him.
"Uchiha, Fifth Generation, our clan comprises individuals in crucial positions, not mere civilians!"
The Sarutobi patriarch's disbelief was evident as he attempted to reason with Uchiha Natsu.
With a stern countenance, Uchiha Natsu remained resolute. His voice, calm yet authoritative, cut through the tension.
"Hmph, on the second day of my tenure as Hokage, the Sarutobi clan conspired to rebel and even plotted my assassination. As perpetrators of sedition, you must be prepared to face the consequences."
His words reverberated with unwavering conviction, leaving the Sarutobi clan members stunned.
Each word branded them as traitors, their futures suddenly uncertain, if not entirely forfeit. The severity of the accusation—punishable by death—sent shivers down their spines.
For the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan, this accusation struck a chord. Many relied on their missions to support their families—a responsibility they couldn't afford to forsake.
Yet, their plight only worsened as more police reinforcements arrived, encircling them. The odds seemed insurmountable, their fate hanging in the balance.
Among the crowd, some ninjas eyed the unfolding drama, considering whether to intervene. The Sarutobi clan, once esteemed, had now become the object of public scorn—a rallying cry for justice.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Inahura maintained his grip on the injured patriarch, showing no mercy to the criminal before him.
As the situation escalated, one of the senior Sarutobi officials attempted to protest, but her words faltered. Caught in the throes of desperation, she struggled to articulate a defense, realizing the futility of her actions.
The police captain, frustrated by her resistance, moved to subdue her. However, before he could act, a blur streaked past them.
Uzuki Yugao and Uchiha Natsu arrived on the scene, their resolve unyielding.
With swift precision, Uzuki Yugao incapacitated the senior Sarutobi official with ease, her movements fluid and calculated.
As she rejoined Uchiha Natsu, a shared glance conveyed their mutual understanding. Their unity in purpose was unwavering—a testament to their unwavering commitment to justice.
With the Sarutobi patriarch and his cohorts subdued, Uchiha Natsu seized the moment to address the gathered crowd.
"Though you stand accused of treason, I offer you a chance at redemption. Repent sincerely, and you may yet find clemency. The choice is yours."
His words sparked a glimmer of hope among the Sarutobi clan members, their resolve reignited by the prospect of redemption.
In stark contrast, the patriarch, once consumed by thoughts of vengeance, now stood dumbfounded. Uchiha Natsu's unexpected leniency had caught him off guard, leaving him reeling from the sudden turn of events.
The realization dawned on the Sarutobi clan—only four individuals bore the weight of responsibility for their actions. The rest had been granted an opportunity for atonement, a chance to reclaim their honor.
In that moment of clarity, the Sarutobi ninjas rallied, their spirits renewed by the promise of redemption.
With their future hanging in the balance, they stood united, ready to face whatever trials lay ahead.
