At dawn, hundreds of officers from the Imperial Army, Navy Ministry, General Staff, and Military Headquarters conspired to launch a large-scale rebellion against the imperial government and the royal family. They mobilized the remaining soldiers from several divisions around Tokyo, brazenly assassinating dozens of current officials within Tokyo City. However, this rebellion was swiftly suppressed by the valiant efforts of the Royal Guard, who captured all participants.
I declare to the world that all officers, soldiers, and their relatives involved in this rebellion are traitors. According to the Empire's Code of Fair Competition, they shall face Fire Execution! I urge all citizens of the Empire to remain loyal not only to the military but also to the nation! Anyone who defies my will or acts as a traitor shall be regarded as an enemy of the state! Eradicate Three Clans!
After delivering this decree, I turned and left the judgment platform. The scene was filled with nearly a thousand injured individuals, and the overwhelming stench of blood made me feel extremely uncomfortable.
Next, Kojiro Naokata, the president of the Supreme Court of the Empire, publicly read out the names of those involved in the rebellion and announced that Fire Execution would be carried out immediately!
Nearly a hundred soldiers, carrying heavy metal tanks and wearing gas masks while wielding flamethrowers, appeared at the pits where officers and soldiers had been pushed—one for corpses and another for relatives. The ignited flamethrowers unleashed flames nearly a meter long, with a mixture of gasoline and tar burning everything it touched.
The rebels were somewhat fortunate as they were bound and had their mouths gagged. However, their relatives—young and old alike—were not spared! The horrific screams echoed continuously but faded within mere seconds.
The onlookers in Tokyo fled in panic as soon as they saw flames erupting from the flamethrowers, retreating far away. Yet even a kilometer away, one could still feel the intense heat of the consuming flames.
As bodies continued to be brought to the scene—some bound, some injured—the living were thrown into the still-burning pits for corpses. Even dead bodies were tossed in without distinction!
This purge operation, involving nearly ten thousand people and affecting the entire nation, lasted for days! His Majesty's command to Eradicate Three Clans left even the executing Royal Guards puzzled. They asked Prince You what exactly constituted "three clans."
Prince You's answer was clear: paternal clan, maternal clan, and spousal clan—regardless of age—all would face Fire Execution! Fortunately, most of those instigating the rebellion were from lower ranks; even if three clans were eradicated, it did not involve the Kazoku or high-ranking officials of the Empire.
Hibiya Park burned continuously for over half a month! The Emperor's seemingly benevolent demeanor contrasted sharply with his ruthless and violent purge against disobedient Military Headquarters personnel and troops, instilling fear throughout the military!
Particularly alarming were rumors that this Eradicate Three Clans and Fire Execution originated from Prince You's suggestions. The military grew even more fearful of this heartless prince!
After igniting chaos among their ranks by burning their own armored soldiers, those self-important officers who believed they could dictate the Empire's direction were quickly silenced. More than ten high-ranking officials from Military Headquarters—including those involved in three clans—were thrown into the flames as evidence that only obedient officers would be deemed good officers!
Those who defied imperial will should best take their own lives; otherwise, if their actions brought ruin upon their three clans, they would truly be guilty—better to die early than face such fate!
