But Uchiha Ryosuke seemingly did not want such news to leak out.

  Naturally, they would not ask any more questions.

  The Inuzuka cn leader also felt somewhat conflicted now. Since the Ino-Shika-Cho three cns had all joined, then the Hokage had lost another important source of support.

  The Third Hokage's support base had grown even smaller, so for the sake of his cn, the Inuzuka cn leader naturally could only choose to join as well.

  "Cn leader Fugaku, my Inuzuka cn also chooses to join."

  Fugaku saw that all four cns had chosen to join and felt very happy in his heart. It seemed that today's pn had been accomplished, and he smiled as he spoke.

  "Then it's settled. Tomorrow, we will issue an announcement in the name of the six cns. Of course, today we can also modify the regutions of the Guard Force. If any of the cn leaders are dissatisfied, you can bring it up for changes."

  Then Fugaku called someone over and handed five copies of the Guard Force regutions to the five cn leaders.

  The five cn leaders were all very surprised. They were actually given the right to modify the Guard Force regutions. It seemed to be sincere.

  Even Shikaku collected himself and began reading the Guard Force regutions.

  Worrying about the future now was useless. The other party likely wouldn't reveal any more information, and he had no ability to make them reveal it.

  But perhaps following the Uchiha cn could not only protect his own life, the lives of his old friends, but even the safety of the vilge.

  Ryosuke naturally wouldn't participate in such a meeting and had already chosen to leave early.

  The remaining cn leaders naturally began discussing the revision of the Guard Force regutions. Some excessively strict rules were adjusted to reduce certain penalties, which would naturally make the vilgers more accepting.

  Fugaku was surprised and internally admired Shikaku's strong handling abilities. No wonder Ryosuke had invited him to join.

  It wasn't until te at night that the cn leaders finally finished revising the regutions and dividing the territories.

  The result was not the six regions that Fugaku had originally envisioned but rather three major regions.

  The Uchiha cn, the Hyūga cn, and the other four cns each managed one region.

  This was, of course, suggested by Shikaku. The ones taking charge of the Guard Force naturally had to be powerful experts, but at this stage, they didn't have enough manpower, so it was more appropriate for the four cns to jointly manage a region.

  Fugaku naturally had no objections.

  Finally, the reform proposed by Fugaku was that the Uchiha Guard Force would henceforth be renamed the Konoha Guard Force. This had been discussed with Ryosuke in advance.

  Fugaku felt somewhat conflicted in his heart, but for better integration into the vilge, and also for the Uchiha cn to thrive and live more peacefully in the vilge, there didn't seem to be anything worth holding on to.

  This measure should make the vilgers stop seeing the Uchiha cn as a monstrous threat.

  The others were shocked when they saw that Fugaku had even changed the name. Such a name meant that the Uchiha Guard Force was now history.

  Even the Ino-Shika-Cho trio cns couldn't help but change their perspective.

  This renaming signified that the Guard Force now belonged to the entire vilge.

  Naturally, they were happy about this—not only could they participate, but this was also of great significance to the vilge.

  With the territory division completed, it naturally meant that the Konoha Guard Force was now fully formed. It only needed to be officially announced the next day.

  The newly joined Hyūga cn leader, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio cn leaders, and the Inuzuka cn leader were all quite satisfied.

  Next, the key was to train the personnel properly. As long as they didn't handle things poorly and get compints, everything would be fine.

  Because Uchiha Fugaku had mentioned that if a rge number of compints from vilgers arose and the assessment had issues, then the Uchiha cn had the right to recim this part of the authority.

  In other words, as long as there were no compints from the vilgers, there would be no problems.

  Otherwise, if they accepted the power only to have it taken back, it would be a great humiliation for their cns, proving that their cn was not capable of handling the Guard Force.

  So naturally, they would handle this matter with caution.

  The Next Morning

  Early the next morning, on the Uchiha Guard Force building, a huge announcement was posted.

  Although usually, very few people were willing to approach the Uchiha Guard Force building, and even more so because of the vilge's advisor elders' incident, the vilgers were even more unwilling to interact with the Uchiha cn.

  But still, some vilgers would pass by. They hadn't committed any crimes, so naturally, they didn't need to fear the Uchiha Guard Force.

  And naturally, they were drawn to the huge announcement. Walking up to read it, the more they read, the more shocked their expressions became.

  This news struck their minds like a shockwave.

  The Uchiha Guard Force was actually undergoing reform—not only was the name changed to the Konoha Guard Force, but even some of the Uchiha cn's regutions were amended.

  Now, it should be called the Konoha Guard Force regutions.

  Additionally, five major cns had joined: the Hyūga cn, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio cns, and the Inuzuka cn.

  The vilge was now divided into three major regions—one managed by the Hyūga cn, one by the Uchiha cn, and the st by the other four cns.

  Everyone who saw the announcement was deeply shaken.

  Since the time of the Second Hokage, vilge security had always been handled by the Uchiha cn. And today, that had actually changed.

  And it wasn't even ordered by the Hokage—his name wasn't mentioned in the announcement.

  Of course, they didn't care much about that. What they cared about was their own interests.

  They pondered whether this change was good or bad for them. It seemed beneficial—no longer would the entire vilge be governed solely by the ruthless and arrogant Uchiha cn.

  To them, it felt like a release.

  After all, they didn't like living under heavy pressure, being strictly enforced at every turn, with no room for leniency.

  Quickly, those who read the announcement spread the news to their friends and family, all of them overjoyed.

  "Have you heard? The Guard Force will be renamed the Konoha Guard Force from now on."

  "Of course I heard. Apparently, it's going to be co-managed by six major cns."

  "Doesn't that mean our lives will be much easier now? The new families in charge shouldn't be as strict as the Uchiha, right?"

  "Naturally! I heard that some of the penalties in the regutions have been significantly reduced."

  This news quickly spread throughout the entire vilge. Most vilgers remained optimistic, as the Uchiha cn's w enforcement had been too harsh, making them afraid to move freely.

  Now, with such a change, life would undoubtedly be more rexed.

  Previously, the Uchiha cn had publicly tried and executed the vilge's elder advisor. Though the elder deserved it, the fact that the Uchiha directly judged and killed them demonstrated their dominance.

  They didn't know why the Uchiha suddenly decided to do this. Logically, no one could force them to relinquish their control over the Guard Force.

  But this was clearly posted on the Uchiha cn's announcement board, not just some rumor. Even the ninja cns in the vilge found it hard to believe when they heard the news.

  But it was real.

  Their wariness toward the Uchiha cn eased. In the past, the Guard Force was entirely controlled by the Uchiha, who decided guilt and punishment.

  Now, with so many cns involved, it should become more fair, right? For those living in Konoha, this was undoubtedly a favorable change.

  At the same time, they understood that the Uchiha cn had willingly given up these powers to win over these cns.

  They were preparing for their future rise.

  ———

  At this moment, the Third Hokage had been recuperating for the past few days. That kick from Uchiha Ryosuke had aggravated his injuries.

  This guy was truly detestable, showing such disrespect to him, the Third Hokage.

  So in these past few days, he had even temporarily set aside his Hokage duties, having no mind to deal with them.

  As for that "getting stronger by getting beaten" training, he had already given up on it. Not training was fine. It was completely useless—not only did it not improve his strength, but it even injured his body.

  Now, the most important thing was how to deal with the Uchiha cn. Only by uncovering the secret behind Uchiha Ryosuke's power could he have any hope of turning the tables.

  While he was still recovering, an Anbu member hurriedly arrived at his location and reported the Guard Force reform to him.

  When the Third Hokage received this news, his expression changed. Inside, he was shocked and furious.

  The Uchiha cn had restructured the Guard Force.

  And they hadn't even informed him, the Third Hokage—hadn't even let him, the Third Hokage, participate in it.

  He was the Hokage—how could such a major decision be made without his approval? How dared they reform it on their own?
