"Shisui, are we going to the Daimyō Palace?"

Behind Uchiha Shisui, another Uchiha clansman asked.

Otogakure, which had carried out the coup, should already be at the Daimyō Palace now.

If they went to the Daimyō Palace, they might encounter them.

"No, we have other missions."

"Other missions?"

"Yes, after this, the Peacekeeping Force's name will surely resound throughout the entire ninja world. We must seize this opportunity to clear out the chaos around the Republic of Fire."

When the word 'clear out' came from Shisui's mouth, the Uchiha clansmen around him trembled, their expressions changing.

That change in expression was not one of confusion or hesitation.

But rather, excitement and thrill.

It could even be called intense excitement.

As if they had been waiting for a long time to hear those exact words: Clear out the chaos.

For them, the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force, it was a perfectly suitable job.

And so, the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force, which had just arrived in the Land of Rice Fields, once again changed direction, heading to other countries.

This blue beacon of peacekeeping left an indelible impression on the surrounding nations.

Bandits and mountain brigands along the way suffered almost devastating blows.

Later, whenever the words 'peacekeeping' were heard, countless mountain brigands would flee for their lives.

If they didn't flee, what awaited them would be demons more terrifying than death.

However, this was just the beginning.

Many underground black markets around the Republic of Fire were subjected to terrifying purges.

Numerous strongholds were uprooted.

The heads of the strongholds were executed.

According to the terrified descriptions of surviving ninjas, hundreds of red-eyed ninjas invaded, wielding ninja blades and massacred everyone in sight ferociously.

Throughout the entire process, that group of ferocious demons showed no mercy, even letting out hysterical cackles.

Under the intelligence network of other black markets, they finally discovered that it was Konoha's Peacekeeping Force that had done all this.

Thanks to this, the members of Uchiha Peacekeeping Force were also known as... the Red-Eyed Demons.

In some remote towns, if a child was naughty and disobedient at night, just saying, "If you don't go to sleep, the Red-Eyed Demon will come and eat you," would scare all the children into obediently burrowing into their blankets.

"Peacekeeping Force? What kind of Peacekeeping Force is this?"

Upon hearing about the various deeds of the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force, Onoki in the Tsuchikage's office gnashed his teeth in anger.

The Peacekeeping Force, from its name, was originally meant to maintain peace, right?

But that Peacekeeping Force composed of Uchiha had no semblance of peacekeeping or peace!

They were clearly using the pretext of maintaining peace to wantonly vent their chaotic desires!

If these Peacekeeping Forces were allowed to continue causing trouble, the ninja world would probably fall into chaos.

"Father, should we suppress those Peacekeeping Forces?"

Kitsuchi asked.

"No!"

Onoki's answer was quite straightforward.

Are you kidding me!

Didn't you see that the Raikage Ai next door had already chosen to retreat?

Would they have a good outcome if they faced those crazy Uchiha?

Those lunatics have always been reckless, and now, under the guise of maintaining ninja world's peace, they were self-brainwashing, becoming even crazier.

What nerve did he, Onoki, hit wrong to even think of provoking that group of lunatics?

"But currently, many small nations internationally are waiting for aid from the Four Nations Alliance..."

Kitsuchi hesitated.

Many small nations that leaned towards their side, after being tormented by the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force, were waiting for the Four Great Nations behind them to intervene and support them.

If Onoki did nothing.

He would inevitably lose the support of those small nations.

"Release a message saying that Iwagakure will support them from behind."

Intervening was impossible.

If they really intervened, it would drag Iwagakure into an unfavourable position.

Onoki, having lived to this age, saw this quite clearly.

Could a worsening international opinion compare to tangible benefits?

...

"Shisui, we've received intelligence that a cult called the Jashin Cult is rampant within the Land of Hot Springs. It severely threatens the ninja world's peace."

"A cult?"

Shisui's eyes instantly sharpened.

Cults cause immense harm and must be purged.

"Prepare immediate dispatch towards that direction and purge the Jashin Cult!"

"Yes!"

A large number of Uchiha ninja began to enter the Land of Hot Springs, searching for traces of the Jashin Cult.

Those followers of Jashin, the so-called believers of the Great Jashin, never expected such a thing, that one day, they would fall under the eyes of the Peacekeeping Force.

"Found them!"

A cultist wearing a Jashin Cult black cloak, before he could react, saw a large group of red-eyed ninjas charging with swords.

'What's going on?'

'Had Jashin-sama manifested?'

The ninja blade struck down fiercely.

The Jashin cultist's body was torn into pieces, but surprisingly, he didn't die immediately, his face filled with terror.

"Indeed, it's a cult! They can't be killed like this!"

"Burn him with fire!"

One Fire Style jutsu after another was unleashed, striking the unlucky Jashin cultist until his body was reduced to ashes, and only then, they stopped.

"As expected, Fire Style jutsu works!"

"Continue to find these cultists and burn them to ashes with fire!"

And so, a devastating calamity against the Jashin Cult unfolded.

Large numbers of cultists were captured, emitting tragic wails under the Uchiha's Fire Style, eventually turning into ashes.

The Fire Style, which had never burned anyone to death before in the original story, erupted with astonishing power at this moment.

The villagers of the Land of Hot Springs, who had feared the arrival of the Peacekeeping Force, gradually let down their guard after seeing this scene.

The Jashin Cult was the greatest threat within the Land of Hot Springs, and countless innocent young kids had been captured and sacrificed by them in ceremonies, ultimately dying tragically.

The residents of the Land of Hot Springs had long hated the Jashin Cult to the bone.

Now, seeing an even more ferocious Peacekeeping Force descend on them, purging Jashin Cultists nationwide, they were overjoyed and had no time to cause trouble for the Peacekeeping Force.

Even the Daimyō of the Land of Hot Springs, who had no good feelings for Konoha, exclaimed that the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force was an army sent by god upon seeing their bravery.

There were no ninja villages or forces within the Land of Hot Springs capable of purging Jashin Cultists.

This was also why the Jashin Cult was able to take root in the Land of Hot Springs.

The Peacekeeping Force clearing out the Jashin Cult was a huge help to him.

And so, with the willing cooperation of all parties, the Jashin Cult suffered a devastating blow.

"Damn it! How did we provoke this group of demons?"

The leader of the Jashin Cult was drenched in cold sweat from shock.

Originally, in the Land of Hot Springs, residents called them demons, but in front of the Uchiha Peacekeeping Force, they were as docile as sheep.

"Jashin-sama! Please save us! Only you can save us now!"

The Jashin Cult leader knelt before the pond, hands clasped, making a desperate plea.

At the same time.

Within the Akatsuki Organization, Hidan also received intelligence that the Jashin Cult was being purged by the Peacekeeping Force.

"Get out of the way! Leader! I need to see the Leader!"

"The Leader is not seeing anyone!"

"Leader, if you don't act soon, the Jashin Cult will be finished!"

Konan looked at Hidan, who was almost frantically rushing inside, and instantly felt an immense headache.

How could Konoha sending out a Peacekeeping Force to Land of Hot Springs end up implicating even them?

Damn Konoha!
