TUS Chapter 233: The God Tree Hunger Games
🕑 Added 2024-11-22 03:18:10 +0000 UTCFunan closed his eyes and focused his mind inward.
Inside his body, the God Tree was already trembling. White Zetsu’s attraction towards the God Tree was far greater than he could imagine.
What was the reason for this?
Funan sometimes wondered.
Did the God Tree of the Shinobi World do something by transforming people into White Zetsu?
Or could it be that the White Zetsu have a part of the God Tree inside them?
If so...
Funan suddenly had a bold idea.
What if his God Tree could devour the God Tree of the Shinobi World?
If he devoured it, how strong could he become?
“There is no hurry, everything in due time.”
“But, if I get the chance, I will definitely try it!”
Funan focused her gaze on the corpses of White Zetsu.
"Come on, let's see how much you can increase my power to!"
A scarlet mist began to emanate from Funan, spreading in all directions.
As the corpses of White Zetsu and the Kiri-nin came into contact with the scarlet mist, they began to dehydrate, shrivel, and wither.
Having lost all their vitality, they began to crack.
A large amount of life energy flowed into Funan's body crazily.
Funan felt his flesh being torn apart by the powerful energy.
The God Tree trembled even more violently.
"I'm evolving!"
"I'm evolving!"
Funan was breathing heavily, his face full of fervor.
His body was being transformed, it was a change visible to the naked eye.
And even more so, his God Tree also seemed to be taking a great leap.
"After this time, I will probably have the power close to Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama."
"Zehahaha!"
...
Amegakure.
Onoki glared angrily at the person in front of him.
Pain still had his cold expression and in his hands, he held an arm.
The arm of the Raikage!
Onoki and the Raikage were so beaten up that they almost wanted to cry.
Is this the power of the Rinnegan?
They had brought thousands of shinobi with them, but a single Shinra Tensei had wiped them out.
Desperate, Onoki and the Raikage were forced to join Mifune in confronting Pain.
Who knew that the opponent would knock Mifune away in a few strokes.
“Raikage, what do you think?” Onoki stretched, feeling the pain in his back.
“We can keep fighting.” The Raikage said coldly. “But I don’t know how much longer that Pain can fight.”
They both realized something.
After Pain used the Shinra Tensei, he had consumed much of his strength.
Otherwise, he would have defeated them all already. Why wait until now?
Pain looked at them coldly and said: "Killing you all is not a problem."
"Really?" The Raikage sneered and said: “If killing all of us is no problem, then let’s add more people to the fight, see if you can still do it.”
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
As the Raikage finished speaking, a ferocious water dragon emerged with a roar.
Terumi Mei has arrived!
“Another one! You guys are like annoying flies that keep coming.”
Pain's expression turned cold, and he opened his hands.
"Shinra Tensei!"
[Boom!!!!]
The huge shockwave completely dispersed the water dragon.
Amidst the falling drops, Pain stared coldly at the four people in front of him.
Raikage!
Tsuchikage!
Mizukage!
Mifune!
The four of them watched him with equal coldness.
“Only the Kazekage is missing.” Pain said indifferently. “If he’s here too, all the better. We can finish them all off at once.”
“Pain, the Rinnegan is truly powerful, but unfortunately, your opponents are us.” The Raikage showed a fierce expression.
"Hehe!" Pain sneered and said: “Do you really think you can beat me? Well, I wasn’t going to use this card, but you’ve proven that you deserve it.”
With that, Pain began to slowly rise into the air, spreading both arms as he coldly looked down.
"Not good!" Onoki shuddered.
A feeling of extreme danger.
In a high-pitched voice, he shouted: "Everyone, retreat, immediately!"
The few remaining Iwa-nin were the first to obey, quickly running back.
The others, after a brief moment of indecision, also began to flee.
“You can’t escape!”
Pain sneered coldly as he gathered all of his chakra.
"Super Shinra Tensei!"
[Boom!!!]
A terrible rumble echoed as the earth shook and trembled.
An indescribable wave of energy expanded from Pain as the center towards all directions.
With this tremendous power, the ground was torn up by its roots, and huge stones were lifted and shattered.
Nearby trees were uprooted and destroyed.
Finally, the shockwave of the Shinra Tensei reached the remaining shinobi of the alliance.
With their eyes filled with terror, they watched as Pain's force enveloped them.
"No!"
The three Kage and Mifune screamed in terror.
They had positioned themselves at the front to launch their most powerful attacks against Pain's Shinra Tensei.
All of their strength exploded at once.
The entire world at that moment lit up with a blinding glow.
…
Funan woke up.
He realized that he was surrounded, no, rather, he was wrapped in a crimson cocoon.
“Am I a newborn?”
Funan chuckled, and the laughter gradually grew louder.
"Zehahaha!"
He felt it. His power had increased!
A lot!
He had never felt so strong before.
He looked at his attributes of power.
LV·6 (Fire Release)
LV·6 (Dojutsu)
LV·6 (Senjutsu)
Fire Release had risen from level 4 to level 6.
Senjutsu had gone from level 5 to level 6.
The Dojutsu had apparently not leveled up, but… how could it not have improved?
Funan opened his eyes and the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan appeared in his eyes.
He could feel the powerful pupil power flowing.
“Zehahaha!”
“Almost there, Rinnegan. I’ll have it soon!”
Funan tore open the cocoon and emerged from it.
"Hmm?"
As he moved his body, Funan realized that his constitution had strengthened far beyond imagination.
“This feeling… it’s incredible… no, it’s wonderful!”
Funan clenched his fist.
He was full of confidence.
His comprehensive strength can definitely fight Hashirama and Madara.
With this in mind, Funan began to walk with a firm step.
Now he was ready to move on to his next plan.
Meanwhile his consciousness turned towards the interior of his body.
The God Tree now gave off a feeling of being ancient and profound, emitting a mysterious energy. It shone with a light on its surface.
Funan placed his hand on the door handle and applied a little force.
[Crack!]
The metal handle was actually torn off by him.
“Huh?”
Funan was stunned, looking suspiciously at the door handle in his hand, then smiled and walked away.
...
Hokage office.
Yako was organizing documents.
Suddenly, a pair of mischievous hands appeared and touched Yako from behind.
She shuddered from head to toe, a flash of fury crossing her eyes. Golden chains erupted from her body, ready to strike.
"Wait, wait, Yako! Don't attack! It's me!" Funan exclaimed quickly.
Yako turned her head, glaring at him. "Are you crazy!? I thought that...!"
The chains slowly retracted inside her as she tried to calm herself.
"You... ugh!"
...
An hour later, Yako, her hair slightly disheveled, was sitting lazily on Funan's lap.
“Who did you think it was?” Funan asked curiously.
"Shut up!" Yako glared at him. "I thought it was my dead husband... Karin's father. Happy?"
Funan raised his hands in surrender.
Yako regained her composure and commented: "You were absent for quite a while this time."
"How many days?"
"Five days!"
"So long?" Funan was shocked. "I thought it would be at most three days."
"But your progress was remarkable." Yako said with a mix of mockery and admiration. "Just now, you almost killed me."
Funan chuckled and said: "That's all? If I hadn't taken the time to practice on the way back, I don't know if your fragile body would have survived!"
Yako rolled her eyes.
"By the way, how is the battle going?" Funan asked curiously.
"What do you think? Could the Rinnegan lose?"
Yako stood up and took out a battle report. "Strictly speaking, it was a draw. The forces of Suna, Kumo, Iwa, Kiri, and the samurai all retreated from Amegakure. However, Amegakure's losses were also enormous."
Funan flipped through the intelligence.
On the battlefield, Pain had wreaked havoc, not only repelling the allied forces, but severely injuring several Kage.
Konan, for her part, remained in a tense confrontation with Sunagakure, without fighting breaking out.
Mei solved all the White Zetsu.
Chiyo and Sasori had a confrontation, but they were both tied.
Seeing this, Funan could only twist his lips.
Probably only Pain was fighting seriously.
"That's not right!"
Funan was about to throw away the battle report when he was startled. He took it and read it carefully again.
"What's wrong?" Yako asked, intrigued.
"Is Pain really that strong?" Funan was a little puzzled.
"One person against three Kage, and a general of the Land of Iron, four of the strongest masters in the world, isn't this a bit too strong?"
If it was Uchiha Madara, he would definitely be playing for fun.
As for Pain... The Rinnegan isn't even his. Could he really use it that effectively?
He has used several big moves.
Does he have so much chakra?
In the original work, he also used a big move, and then was half dead, and was finally killed by Naruto.
Is he so tough now?
"Who knows." Yako shrugged as she adjusted her clothes. "Though I'd say your little lover must have intervened somehow."
"Konan?"
"Yes!"
"I'll ask him later." Funan sat up straighter.
"By the way." Yako continued. "What are we going to do now?"
"Nothing." Funan smiled nonchalantly. "We just need to focus on managing Konoha. As for the rest, we'll handle it as things arise."
"I guess the shinobi world will never be peaceful."
"No way, they're fighting like this, why don't they take a break?"
"Even if they want to rest, someone will stop them." Funan spoke with conviction. "By the way, bring me the latest reports on the Five-Tails and the Eight-Tails."
"Yes!"
Yako set to work, but recent reports indicated that both the Five-Tails and the Eight-Tails had disappeared. They had not even participated in the offensive against Amegakure to obtain the Rinnegan.
Funan thought for a moment. "It seems that despite the defeats, the great villages have not yet displayed their full power. Even now, they are keeping something up their sleeves."
"Are they still hiding forces after losing thousands of shinobi?" Yako asked in disbelief.
"It's not that surprising." Funan smiled. "For many, today's defeats and sacrifices don't matter as much as the future. Even Kirigakure has retained much of its strength. Not to mention Kumogakure and Iwagakure. Do you think they seem weakened?"
"If they put their minds to it, those two could easily gather another ten thousand shinobi." Funan paused and added: "Perhaps they are making plans to strike a decisive blow at the most crucial moment."
"What are they really planning? Or are they just idiots?" Funan muttered.
Suddenly, Yako seemed to remember something. A strange expression appeared on her face. "There is a matter that you need to resolve immediately."
"Huh?" Funan looked up. "What happened? With that face, it seems like something interesting is coming."
"You need to be able to laugh after seeing it."
Yako left a report on the table. "Look at this."
With just one glance, Funan burst out laughing. “A matter from the Land of Fire? From our beloved Daimyo?”
