TUS Chapter 261: The Summit of Betrayal
🕑 Added 2025-01-12 18:48:39 +0000 UTCRasa takes Funan hostage with a kunai!
Meanwhile, Asuma, accompanied by the Ino-Shika-Cho clans, members of the Hyuga clan, and other small shinobi clans, had led a mutiny. Their goal: to capture Naruto and plunge Konoha into even greater chaos.
On the other hand, Kakashi and Guy led a contingent of numerous Konoha shinobi, desperately protecting Naruto.
At the stadium, shinobi from other villages, participants in the Chunin exam, watched the situation coldly, staying away. Meanwhile, most of the spectators had succumbed to a genjutsu and were lying unconscious.
The nobles, under the protection of the Konoha shinobi, continued to shout orders, demanding more security and adding to the confusion. The Konoha shinobi were all confused. The situation was out of control.
In other corners of the village, disturbances were also beginning to emerge. Konoha's top brass seemed blind to the chaos and stood by unmoved. The Police Force and ANBU had disappeared without a trace.
...
"Hehe, what do you think? Funan-kun, you didn't expect it?"
Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded.
"We knew for a long time that the Kazekage was one of your people. Precisely because he is one of your people, you let your guard down. That was your biggest mistake!"
Orochimaru's kunai was pressed firmly against Funan's neck, not relaxing for even a moment.
Funan looked indifferent and said, "Then, Orochimaru, why don't you just do it already?"
"Hahaha!" Orochimaru let out a laugh and, taking Funan with him, launched himself upwards.
[Bang!]
The top of the platform was broken.
In the midst of the ascent, Orochimaru began to laugh maniacally. "Funan-kun, take a good look, see how your Konoha was destroyed by me... Ugh!"
Funan frowned slightly, and Susanoo burst out instantly.
A huge hand appeared out of nowhere and, with a powerful impact, crushed Orochimaru into the ground.
"You talk a lot of nonsense! Orochimaru!"
Funan sneered.
"Hehe, haha!"
Orochimaru slowly stood up, writhing like a snake, his eyes fixed on Funan.
"Funan-kun, you are really impressive. Even in a situation like that, you were able to fight back."
Just now, he had not only used a kunai against Funan's neck but had also applied several restraining techniques.
"That's because you don't understand the true power of the Uchiha clan," Funan retorted with contempt.
Orochimaru smiled, not caring about Funan's sarcasm, looking around, and said: "Actually, this place is perfect. The youngest Hokage in Konoha's history, the man who brought changes to the shinobi world, the Fifth Hokage, Uchiha Funan... will die here, along with his village!"
"Just you?" Funan shook his head in disdain and said, "Or do you trust them?" He pointed at Asuma and the others.
"To be honest, even if you triple your strength, it won't be enough."
"That's true," Orochimaru admitted, smirking. "But what if we add them to the mix?" He pointed at the other Kage including Mifune, who stood motionless below.
Funan looked at them with a cold gaze and asked, "Are you planning to ally with Orochimaru to attack Konoha?"
The Raikage, with a stern look, replied, "Hokage-dono, if you accept..."
"I won't agree to anything!"
The Raikage: "..."
"Then there's no way." The Tsuchikage slowly floated up and said, "Hokage, today is the day of Konoha's destruction."
Kumo, Iwa, Kiri and the Land of Iron finally revealed their true intentions.
They stared at Funan with amazing murderous intent.
The Raikage raised his hand, releasing a flare that exploded in the sky.
"Do you really think you guys alone will be enough to defeat me?" Funan let out a mocking laugh. “Actually, I think that killing all of you here is a rather interesting option.”
"We know that we alone are no match for the Hokage-dono, that's for sure." Mei smiled coquettishly and added, "That's why we made sure to look for suitable opponents for you. Hokage-dono, you're not going to cry later, are you?"
Funan's eyes narrowed as he stared at Mei.
Mei's smile remained, but inside she tensed, afraid that Funan would react angrily and attack her. She kept a safe distance.
"Since we last saw each other, you've aged a few years. Are you closer to thirty now? And what happens after thirty? Forty isn't too far away, is it?"
Mei: "..."
Funan continued: "I heard that you've been worried lately about not being able to get married. They say you're too aggressive and no man dares to approach you."
Mei: "..."
Fuck you!
At twenty-eight, Mei was at an age where the subject of age was particularly sensitive for her. The mere mention of her approaching thirty was a direct blow to her pride.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
In a display of extraordinary power, Mei summoned a gigantic water dragon, which roared toward Funan with imposing force.
The surging momentum made the Raikage sweat.
This woman is a bit scary.
"Fire Release..." Funan clasped his hands together. "Fire Dragon Bullet!"
A larger and more ferocious blood-red fire dragon emerged, facing the water dragon.
The water evaporated upon contact with the flames, creating a dense mist. From within the mist, the fire dragon opened its eyes and fired a shower of fireballs towards Mei.
Mei barely managed to dodge them, retreating dozens of meters while cursing in her mind.
At that moment, Funan noticed something and turned towards the horizon. From the top of the platform, she could clearly see that several places in Konoha were engulfed in flames.
Among the flames, shinobi from Iwa, Kumo, Kiri and even samurai could be seen mercilessly attacking the villagers of Konoha.
"Are you really determined to go all the way?"
With a cold smile, Funan looked at the group of Kage and asked, "Aren't you afraid that Orochimaru will drag you into the abyss with him?"
Onoki calmly replied, "What we cannot allow is for you to continue."
The development speed of Konoha is really too fast.
"Zehahaha!" Funan couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head. "You know what? I understand you all perfectly. I'm so amazing, so powerful, that of course, it's only natural that you fear me. I'm just... too handsome a man!"
The eyebrows of several people jumped.
"But..." Funan stared at them, his expression changing into a defiant smile. "Do you think that with a few traitorous shinobi inside Konoha you can fool me? Do you really think I'm that naive?"
...
As Funan spoke, a samurai raised his chakra-charged sword, ready to cut down a defenseless villager, but a hand stopped his attack.
"How dare you! Do you think Konoha is a place where you can kill people at will?"
The samurai looked at the one who had stopped him, and his face froze in horror. "Tsunade?!"
Looking behind Tsunade, she saw countless Konoha shinobi.
How could there be so many?
The samurai was filled with despair.
With a fierce shout, Tsunade launched a devastating punch.
The samurai tried to defend himself, but his sword was instantly shattered. And he... was not luckier. With Tsunade's monstrous strength, there was no doubt: he was dead before he hit the ground.
"Kill them!" Tsunade shouted.
"Yes!" The Konoha shinobi responded in unison, launching themselves into combat with ferocity.
Elsewhere in Konoha, Itachi took out a Kumogakure shinobi with ease.
His eyes transformed into the Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Go ahead, kill them all!"
"Understood!"
The shinobi under his command rushed forward one after another.
...
The Iwa shinobi were advancing with abandon through Konoha, but a hail of kunai forced them to stop. Looking up, they noticed several figures on the rooftops.
The Iwa shinobi opened their eyes wide as they recognized the people before them.
Led by Yashiro, a group of crimson-eyed shinobi and a large number of other shinobi, smiled maliciously as they fixed their gazes on the stunned Iwa-nin.
The Konoha Police Force launched into the attack with fiery enthusiasm. The battlefield was soon stained with the blood of the enemy.
...
"What I hate most are traitors."
Fugaku walked alone and unhurriedly towards a group of Suna-nin.
"Haha, there is no eternal friendship between nations!" Chiyo smiled and said, "Uchiha Fugaku, can you stop so many of us by yourself?"
"Just me?" Fugaku said calmly. "It seems that you have lost respect for the power of the Uchiha, but don't worry, after today, you will only need to think of us to tremble in fear."
With those words, Fugaku took a special pill into his mouth and bit into it.
[Crack!]
In an instant, a towering giant skeleton emerged around him. The Susanoo launched itself towards Chiyo and her group with devastating force.
"Prepare to die!"
"Arrogant!" Chiyo shouted coldly, and ten white puppets appeared in front of her.
…
"Is this your big plan?" Funan laughed wildly. "Did you really think I didn't notice everything you've done?"
"Wrong!"
"I discovered a long time ago that a large number of unknown shinobi infiltrated Konoha. I must admit that they were patient; it took them two years to introduce them little by little."
"But the ones who fell into the trap... were you."
The Kage's expressions changed visibly.
Orochimaru stared at them and said, "And what about your forces at the borders? Did they not act? How is it possible that there are still so many shinobi available in Konoha?"
"Yes, they did." Funan's response was accompanied by a mocking laugh. "Did they think that by deploying large contingents on the borders they could divide Konoha's forces?"
"You organized the Five Kage summit at the same time as the chunin exam. With the Kage present, it was logical to deploy troops at the border to ensure your safety."
"But…"
"Your strategy was too obvious."
Funan looked at the Kage's faces, which all showed discomfort at his words. Funan's expression was a mixture of satisfaction and amusement. "First you sent out a lot of important missions to force the Konoha shinobi to abandon the village. You succeeded. You even got Shisui to leave."
"Then, you used the Chunin Exams as a pretext to organize this summit. In parallel, you mobilized forces on the border, pressuring us to send reinforcements to confront you."
"And while all this was happening, you were bringing your shinobi, one by one, into Konoha."
"Silently waiting for the outbreak!"
"Finally, you communicated with the nobles to have them come to Konoha. You knew that if a conflict broke out, the Konoha shinobi would have to protect them, thus diminishing our active forces."
Funan smiled coldly.
"A clever plan, I must admit."
Funan's Sharingan activated.
"I'll be frank with you: even the intervention of the Sarutobi clan was something expected. The betrayal of the Hyuga clans and the Ino-Shika-Cho clans was also foreseen. Even the role of the Kazekage, Rasa!"
Funan turned her gaze directly to Orochimaru and said in an icy voice, "Orochimaru, from the moment I saw you, I knew that it was not Rasa, but you."
"Everything I did after that was a show. I knew the Raikage, and the others were in cahoots with you."
"Zehahaha!" Funan raised his head and laughed. "How about it? Are you surprised? Were you caught off guard?"
