Konoha Sheriff

puff~

As soon as Beichen's words came out, several bursts of laughter could not help but burst out from the crowd.

"You, you are obviously talking nonsense!" Triangle's face turned red with anger, but he couldn't think of any words to refute, so he could only repeat over and over again without any confidence:

"You are just protecting that demon fox. Your police force and this damn demon fox are all on the same team! Don't you think so?"

Triangle Eye also wants to repeat his old tricks and use the villagers' herd mentality to build momentum for himself.

Only this time, no matter how hysterically he shouted, no one in the villagers stood up to respond to him.

Although these low-educated Konoha villagers are easily incited, it does not mean that they are so ignorant that they cannot distinguish between right and wrong.

Beichen's speeches from the time he met Naruto to now have always been logical and self-consistent, and he has not used power to overwhelm others. These villagers have seen it all.

The previous actions of revealing his identity and punishing Huo Feng have established his own image of "pursuing fairness" and "enforcement of justice". In addition, he just used the "has my wife been slept with" this kind of retaliation? The way he looks refutes the triangle eye.

It can be said that the thinking rhythm of the villagers has been completely taken away by Beichen.

Once you accept Beichen's thinking mode of "from cause to effect, interconnected", and then listen to Triangle Eye's "illogical and chaotic" speech, you will naturally be able to smell something unusual. Taste it.

Although they are still worried about Naruto's identity as a demon fox, they are willing to continue to listen to Beichen and use their own brains to judge the fairness of right and wrong.

Of course Beichen noticed the change in the attitude of the villagers. He grabbed Triangle Eye and shook it by his collar. After forcing Triangle Eye to shut up, he turned his head and said to Naruto behind Huofeng:

"Since this person says that I am covering up for you, well, you, that's right, you, come here, let's have a good fight with this guy today."

Hearing that Beichen wanted to let him pass, Naruto was stunned for a moment and immediately came over. Before Beichen could speak, he said loudly:

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto, I'm not a demon fox!"

Naruto's whirring sound caused many people in the crowd to frown in dissatisfaction or even disgust, but no one spoke.

They were all waiting, waiting for how Beichen would go to court next.

Beichen pulled Naruto over and, ignoring the specks of paint on his body, pulled him upright and placed him in a circle in front of the crowd.

"Everyone, the child you call the Demon Fox in front of you, besides having a few beards on his face, does he have any characteristics related to the Demon Fox?"

"This……"

The villagers took a rare opportunity to look Naruto up and down. They wanted to find out every mistake to prove their theory, but in the end they had to admit that in terms of appearance alone, Naruto was no different from them. .

Seeing that no one around him stood up, Triangle Eyes was clearly complaining in his heart, but he had no choice but to continue jumping up and down for his "mission":

"We've already said it's a demon fox. Naturally, the demon fox can use demonic magic to transform itself into a human shape!"

"Okay!" Beichen first said hello loudly, and then pulled Naruto to him:

"You said he turned into a human form, so let me ask you how can you make him show his true form?"

Saying that, Beichen first tugged Naruto's ears, and then pinched Naruto's face:

"Is that so? Or is that so? Why do I feel like he's just like a normal person no matter how I touch him? Everyone here, have you ever seen the demon fox in your mouth reveal its prototype?"

Still no answer.

Naruto had never revealed the chakra belonging to the Kyuubi until he graduated from the ninja school. Of course, the villagers of Konoha would not have seen any scene where the demon fox revealed its prototype.

…………

On various rooftops near Konoha's main street, countless eyes were watching what was happening below.

"Itachi! Wait a minute... You must also know that Beichen doesn't have such thoughts."

Zhisui raised his hand to grab Itachi who was about to rush down, his tone almost pleading.

He and Itachi came over long after Beichen finished dealing with Huo Feng, and had been watching the development of the situation with cold eyes.

There was already a hint of anger in Itachi's voice:

"Shisui, we can't drag it on any longer! You should know better than me how much impact that guy's actions will have... Look around us, there are so many pairs of eyes staring at us. If we don't go on, we won't even be able to remedy the situation." All chances are gone.”

"But……"

Zhisui wanted to say something more, but Itachi didn't give him such a chance at all. He forcibly broke away from Zhisui and rushed down.

Seeing this, Shisui could only follow after sighing.

Not far away from the two of them, two masked root ninjas were also discussing in a low voice:

"How to do?"

"Danzo-sama means to cut the knot quickly. No matter what, we cannot let the two trash below fall into the hands of the Uchiha clan. If any information is leaked from their mouths, they will not be the only ones who are unlucky. …”

At this point, the two of them looked at each other, with a flash of determination in their eyes.

…………

Just the last bit.

Looking at most of the Konoha villagers with thoughtful expressions on their faces, Beichen knew very well that he was only one final step away from achieving his goal.

As long as the statement that "Naruto is the incarnation of a demon fox" can be completely overturned, not only will Naruto's favor be gained, but his future situation will be greatly improved.

Taking advantage of Naruto's popularity in the village, he effortlessly promoted his own reputation and personality.

If I can do this, my next step in taking over the real power of the police force will definitely be much smoother...

Beichen was happily thinking about his little plan of "killing three birds with one stone" when he saw an old boy with nasolabial folds on his face appearing in front of him:

"Minister Beichen, the clan leader has informed you to go over to the clan area. He said he has something important to inform you."

The moment he saw the person coming, Beichen couldn't help but froze on the spot.

It's not that he couldn't recognize who the person was.

Uchiha Itachi is the culprit who single-handedly pushed the Uchiha clan into the abyss!

The real reason why he was so shocked was that at the moment Itachi appeared, Beichen's Eye of Judgment actually took effect!

As the Eye of Judgment opened on its own, a halo symbolizing the degree of crime gradually appeared around Uchiha Itachi.

However, this halo is not a stable color like ordinary prisoners, but alternately flashes between pure black and faint light yellow!
