The symbol of the organisation was a four-point star with the crest of the Uchiha clan embedded into the centre and the attire of the police force consisted of the standard Konoha-nin attire with the symbol of the police force emblazoned on the shoulders instead of the regular Uzushiogakure symbol. This disparity in authority results in a certain degree of tension between the two groups. They did not have the authority of arresting Anbu members without a warrant, as Anbu directly report to the Hokage. The Konoha Military Police's purpose was to maintain the law in the village, regarded as ' elite shinobi who monitor fellow shinobi'. In the anime, it was noted by the village's leaders that in future, members should be chosen via open selection instead of sticking to a single clan. The last known leader of this era of the organisation was Fugaku Uchiha.įollowing the massacre, authority over the organisation was given to the Fūma Clan, which is distantly related to the Uchiha. The force naturally consisted of mostly Uchiha clan members before their downfall because - as Itachi Uchiha put it - only strong shinobi were capable of bringing other shinobi to justice. Tobirama, however, dismissed this notion and stated he did this in order to keep the Uchiha's emotions in check and have the village benefit from their dedication at the same time. Ī few members, such as Setsuna, also came to believe that this was the true motive behind the organisation, and tried to rebel as a result.

Tobi believed, however, that this was just a method of ostracising them from the village: having built the police station next to a prison, as well as distancing the Uchiha from taking part in the actual governing of Konoha. Initially believed to have been founded by the Uchiha, in actuality, it was founded by the Second Hokage, and was given to the Uchiha as a sign of trust and good faith between the Senju and themselves. The Konoha Military Police Force is - as the name suggests - the judicial organisation of Konohagakure. Konoha Military Police Force ( 木ノ葉警務部隊, Konoha Keimu Butai, literally meaning: Tree Leaf Military Police Force)
