TUS Chapter 295: A Shinobi, the Wind, and Destiny
🕑 Added 2025-03-19 01:56:46 +0000 UTCWasting no time, Funan used ninjutsu to track Hashirama's location.
"So far?!" Funan was stunned.
Hashirama is thousands of kilometers from where he is. Did he fly there?
Funan glanced at Tobirama and said, "Didn't you brand your brother with the Flying Thunder God?"
“I did it. Not just to my brother, but to you too.” Tobirama spoke matter-of-factly. “But in the confrontation, all the marks disappeared.”
“All right.” Funan sighed. “A thousand kilometers west, go see what your brother is doing there.”
“Understood.”
Tobirama disappeared in an instant.
Just then, Yako came running and helped Funan up. “How are you?”
"I'm seriously injured. Let me take a bite."
“Go ahead.” Without hesitation, Yako extended her arm toward Funan’s mouth.
Funan didn't hold back and sank his teeth into her skin.
Funan couldn't risk a sneak attack right now.
Recovering as soon as possible was the best strategy.
"Hmm!"
Yako's face blushed as she let out a soft moan.
“Why are you complaining?” Funan raised an eyebrow. “This isn’t the first time I’ve bitten you~ Are you still not used to it?”
“Shut up!” Yako glared at him.
Funan let out a sigh once he felt better.
"How are the troops?"
“Thanks to your orders, they began their retreat before the battle even began,” Yako replied. “Now they’ve secured what remains of Iwagakure and are subduing the survivors.”
“Good.” Funan nodded. “Don’t be too soft, especially with the shinobi.”
“I’m clear on that.” With a cold expression, Yako continued, “Iwagakure is one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, and the remnants of Kumogakure are also here. Subduing both sides won’t be easy. Some deaths will be inevitable.”
“I trust you.” Funan winked at her. “I’ll reward you tonight.”
Yako rolled her eyes in annoyance. 'In the end, you're the one who gets the reward!'
At that moment, the Uchiha shinobi and ANBU members rushed over.
"Hokage-sama!"
"Hokage-sama!"
"Everyone!" Funan looked at them and smiled. "We have subdued Kumogakure, and now Iwagakure belongs to us as well. The unification of the shinobi world is near. Very soon, war will be a thing of the past. And you, along with me, will witness this glorious moment."
“In the entire shinobi world only one voice will be heard: Konoha’s!”
For a moment, there was silence.
Then…
"Konoha!"
"Konoha!"
"Hokage-sama!"
"Hokage-sama!"
Cries of victory rang out.
Not even the shinobi of Kirigakure and Sunagakure dared to say a word at that moment.
That year would be marked in the history of the shinobi world.
On this day, Konoha defeated the combined forces of Iwagakure and Kumogakure, and completely completed the unification of the five major shinobi villages.
These villages are the heart of the shinobi world.
When they are unified under one command, there is no one who can raise a second voice.
"The only thing left now is..."
Funan looked in the direction of Amegakure.
Brother Obito...
Uchiha Madara...
They're next.
Kaguya would come next.
Funan frowned.
He hasn't awakened the Rinnegan yet.
If the damned Hagoromo were to appear at this moment, he would have no chance of defeating him.
And as for the possibility of that old man being dead... That's complete nonsense.
The Shinobi World is destroyed, and the old man is probably still alive and kicking!
According to Funan's speculations, Hagoromo must be in the Pure Land collecting souls to turn into his warriors.
Just like Kaguya did with the White Zetsu.
Hagoromo collects powerful souls from the Pure Land.
From that perspective, the Sage of the Six Paths is even more fearsome.
And Funan is certain that collecting souls is just the first step. That damned old conspirator must have even more ambitious plans.
"Forget it..." Funan muttered to himself, "First unify the shinobi world, then assemble a powerful army. The rest will come later."
Since then, he has been caught in a whirlwind of endless work.
Unifying the Five Great Shinobi Villages is not something that comes without effort.
To make matters worse, upon learning of the situation, the leaders of the small villages rushed to request an audience with him, ready to surrender without resistance.
Who is stupid?
At this point, Uchiha Funan is clearly invincible. No one can stop his advance.
And because of this, his workload only increased.
Funan was tired of so much administrative work.
Why did he get into this?
He almost threw his entire desk out the window.
Wasn't it better when he took life easy, like a retired shinobi?
Drinking tea, taking a walk, flirting with girls...
But no, he had to unify the shinobi world and almost end up losing his sanity!
"After all this, if the people of the shinobi world don't thank me, I will destroy this world myself!"
He growled through his teeth, his face twisting in frustration.
"Young man..." Tobirama said, shaking his head. "That's not the right way to think. Think about how many people have found happiness because of what you've done. Isn't that enough satisfaction for you?"
"No!" Funan slumped onto his desk, bored. "I regret everything. I would have been better off leaving it in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands. After all, he was the great Second Hokage's chosen heir. I'm just a vile Uchiha."
The next moment Tobirama's expression darkened.
If he regretted anything in his life, it was having handed Konoha over to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Damn it!
God knows, when he heard of Hatake Sakumo's death, he was so distressed he almost vomited blood.
He knew well the value of the Hatake clan, a lineage of samurai with unwavering loyalty. They were Konoha's sharpest weapon.
But Hiruzen used precisely that loyalty to manipulate them, to the point of driving Sakumo to commit suicide.
And not to mention what happened with the Fourth Hokage.
The night of the Nine-Tails no matter how you look at it, something is wrong!
Add to that the death of Katō Dan...
And Nawaki's...
Each death is stranger than the last!
Tobirama shuddered with rage.
"Hey!" Funan looked at him curiously. "Are you doing an experiment?"
"What experiment?"
"An experiment to see if someone revived by the Impure World Reincarnation can die of a heart attack from anger!"
"Get lost!"
Funan twisted his mouth and asked, "How is your brother?"
After the great battle against Uchiha Madara, what happened to Senju Hashirama?
He was blown away by an explosion!
The reanimated body was already much lighter, and its perception was also clearly weakened.
As if that weren't enough, Hashirama had the misfortune of receiving another direct impact, which threw him hundreds of kilometers away.
Then a strong gust of wind blew just at the moment when he had not yet regained his full bodily form… and he kept flying!
This whole series of coincidences catapulted him even further, until he ended up a thousand kilometers from where he started.
When Tobirama finally found him, Hashirama was in an autistic state.
Tobirama frowned, and commented in frustration, "How do you think he is? Your damn Konoha doesn't put any restrictions on gambling! So once my brother discovered casinos, he's gone completely haywire."
Funan blinked, surprised. "And where did he get the money?"
Tobirama snorted irritably. "Where else would he get money? Tell me, have there been many representatives from small shinobi villages, noble families, and merchants arriving in Konoha recently?"
Ah, he understood!
Funan couldn't help but laugh.
Recently, many representatives of different factions had come to Konoha.
They all wanted to submit to Konoha.
And, of course, they couldn't come empty-handed.
Not only did they give gifts to Uchiha Funan, but they also distributed them generously to the most influential leaders of the village.
As one of the pillars of Konoha and First Hokage, Hashirama had countless admirers who came to pay homage to him.
But still…
Funan looked at Tobirama skeptically. "Wait, the First Hokage isn't the type to take bribes, right? Where have his principles gone?"
There was no denying that Hashirama was an extremely upright person, and one could even say that he was too naive.
Sometimes Funan even felt guilty about how easy it was to deceive him.
"You're right." Tobirama sighed, his expression one of utter resignation. "But what you don't know is how these donations work. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that even I feel dizzy when I see their methods."
"You're right." Tobirama sighed, his expression slightly amused. "But what you don't know is how these donations work. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that even I feel dizzy watching their methods."
"In short, my brother doesn't even realize he's being given money. He just knows that every time he reaches into his pocket, the amount stays the same... as if the money will never run out..."
Funan was confused.
Tobirama continued weakly: "In the end, knowing that my older brother has received money, in many things, I too..."
Funan rolled his eyes.
No wonder Hashirama didn't take the strangeness about the appearance of money seriously.
