TUS Chapter 213: When in Doubt, Set Everything on Fire
🕑 Added 2024-10-20 20:22:38 +0000 UTCEvery Iwa-nin who had just appeared in front of the Konoha shinobi found themselves facing dozens, if not hundreds, of explosive tags.
Many were killed in an instant.
Only a few managed to escape, but they were still seriously injured and in a pitiful condition.
Kitsuchi's face was gloomy.
How could there be so many explosive tags?
Gritting his teeth, he shouted: "Act according to plan!"
"Yes, sir!"
The Iwa-nin began to move.
Some rushed towards the Konoha shinobi, while others quickly retreated.
"Do you want to run away?" Jiraiya sneered and made seals with his hands. "Summoning Technique!"
A huge toad appeared in front of everyone.
The huge Gamabunta had arrived on the battlefield.
"Hey, Jiraiya! Looks like things are getting interesting, huh?" Gamabunta said, smiling as he blew out a smoke ring in a carefree manner.
"Shut your mouth!" Jiraiya growled. "Look over there!"
Following the direction Jiraiya was pointing, Gamabunta turned his head without much concern.
Just then, he saw Funan releasing a gigantic dragon-shaped flame.
The fiery blood-red glow and the immensity of the ninjutsu made Gamabunta's eyes sharpen, and immediately his relaxed attitude turned fierce and full of violence.
"Jiraiya, tell me, how do you want us to attack?" Gamabunta thundered. "Mount Myoboku and Konoha have a deep friendship, fighting for Konoha is an honor for me!"
Fuck!
Jiraiya and Tsunade cursed in their minds at the same time.
Such a loud noise, he's afraid that Funan can't hear it, right?
Jiraiya bluntly pointed towards the reforming Iwa-nin legions and ordered: "Use oil, burn it all!"
Gamabunta looked at him in disbelief. For a moment, he was tempted to draw his sword and cut Jiraiya to pieces.
"Idiot!" Jiraiya cursed and said: "Aim for the parts where the Great Moving Earth Core formation has been destroyed! Throw the oil, I can't believe they can withstand another attack!"
"Ah, I see!" Gamabunta said, finally understanding. He opened his mouth and released several bursts of oil.
Jiraiya, timing the attack, unleashed a powerful Fire Release to ignite it.
The result was immediate.
The order that had barely been restored thanks to Kitsuchi's orders began to crumble.
The Iwa-nin began to get nervous.
Tsunade, seeing the situation, gave a quick order.
The Konoha shinobi began to launch explosive tags to generate even more chaos.
Kitsuchi, seeing this, gave a mocking smile.
"Lady Tsunade!" The sensing ninja reported: "The Iwa-nin's retreat has not slowed."
"Can't we stop them?" Tsunade muttered to herself and then shouted, "Kill! I want them all killed! Jiraiya, stop trying to destroy the Great Moving Earth Core and focus on the Iwa-nin! Kill them, as many as you can!"
"Understood!"
"Order all shinobi to attack with everything they have! I want you to use up all explosive tags!"
"Yes!"
The messengers quickly transmitted the orders to all the shinobi.
...
The Fourth Shinobi World War began with Konoha's attack on Iwagakure.
Funan's battle did not disappoint the people of Konoha but disappointed the people of other shinobi villages.
Three thousand shinobi against tens of thousands of Iwa-nin.
In the first battle of the Fourth Great Shinobi War, Iwagakure was defeated!
Konoha won!
In the end, Iwagakure left behind more than 2,000 corpses and fled in a panic.
Although there were not many dead, there were many wounded, exceeding three thousand.
But what most infuriated and worried Onoki was the state of the legions.
Now most of the shinobi in charge of coordinating the combined ninjutsu of the legions were killed or disabled.
"Cough! Cough!" Onoki coughed several times and, with a gesture of his hand, indicated to Kitsuchi to withdraw, then ordered coldly: "Mobilize the new legion personnel into formation. Also, why hasn't Han arrived yet?"
"It should be coming soon." A Iwagakure shinobi said in a deep voice: "But, Tsuchikage-sama, even if Han comes, there is only one person. Konoha is said to have four tailed beasts."
Onoki stared at the man coldly and said: "Konoha can't send all the tailed beasts to us."
The Iwagakure shinobi was not to be outdone, and said: "What if the other party really did this? Uchiha Funan, he is notoriously crazy."
Onoki was silent.
"Alright!" Kitsuchi shouted coldly. "Elder Masashi, this is not the time to argue. You should say less!"
"Kitsuchi, do you think I am against your father?" Masashi stared at Kitsuchi coldly and said: "You are wrong, I am worried. I am worried that if what I just said comes true, what will Iwagakure do? Can you tell me?"
"Alright!" Onoki's deep voice sounded. "When Han arrives, we'll at least be able to deal with the Three-Tails. As for Uchiha Funan, I'll take care of him. As for the other tailed beasts... hm, Kumogakure should be preparing their move."
Masashi hesitated and said: "Will they? I'm worried...
"Don't worry, they will!" Onoki said decisively: "I know what you're thinking. It's true, those of Kumogakure would prefer to see Iwagakure weakened. But if they don't act right now, I would be willing to surrender to Konoha and then go crush Kumogakure."
"G... give up?"
Everyone in the room was speechless.
"Yes." Onoki sighed and said: "I underestimated Konoha. Even without the tailed beasts, I didn't expect Uchiha Funan to be so cruel. He could actually take out so many explosive tags. Damn, how long has he been preparing for this war?"
That's what most people thought.
They all think that Funan has been preparing for the Fourth Shinobi World War for a long time.
…
The next day, Kumogakure, who received Onoki's secret letter, immediately took action.
They did not launch an immediate attack on Konoha, but instead sneaked closer to the border.
A full eight thousand shinobi!
The intention is very obvious, in order to put pressure on Konoha.
Funan quickly adjusted the battle strategy.
He moved Guy away from Kakashi, assigning him to the front lines against Kumogakure. At the same time, Shisui and Fugaku also appeared on the same line.
If war broke out, Guy's strength with his Seven Gates open, along with Shisui and Fugaku's Mangekyo Sharingan, would be a great surprise to Kumo.
After completing his preparations, Funan turned to the shinobi behind him and, laughing heartily, exclaimed: "Friends, who dares to raid the Iwagakure camp with me!"
"We will follow the Hokage to the death!" They replied in unison.
"Okay, let's go!" Funan rushed out of Konoha's camp with his men.
At the same time, under the command of Jiraiya and Tsunade, Konoha's three thousand shinobi began to move forward again.
Not far ahead was the camp of Iwagakure.
As the Konoha army moved, they also became nervous.
"Alas!" Tsunade sighed. "War, war!"
Jiraiya saw it clearly. "This war is inevitable. Konoha wants to develop, and other shinobi villages don't want us to develop, so conflicts arise."
"That's what I said..."
Tsunade's expression was full of contradictions.
Jiraiya said calmly: "Konoha is so good now. Whoever wants to destroy it, I will kill him."
Tsunade was stunned and said: "You actually agree with Uchiha Funan so much?"
"Is Konoha not good now?" Jiraiya looked at Tsunade and whispered: "Didn't you notice? Your fear of blood is decreasing."
Tsunade was silent. How could she not notice this?
"Maybe, your hemophobia is just..."
"Enough!" Tsunade stopped Jiraiya loudly and said: "Let me keep one last thought for the old man!"
Jiraiya was silent.
Her blood phobia wasn't just a fear of blood itself, but rather a fear of certain memories... and certain responses.
…
"Zehahaha! Onoki kid, come out and play!"
A wild laugh sounded.
Immediately afterwards, endless blood-red flames began to spread in the camp of Iwagakure.
"Uchiha Funan!"
Onoki's roar sounded. His short body floated in the air, looking at Funan with a ferocious look.
"Onoki brat, come on!" Funan hooked his finger at him.
"You, you..." Onoki was so angry.
This bastard, every time he saw him, he spoke in the tone of Uchiha Madara and called him brat all the time.
"Uchiha Funan!" Onoki said with a cold face. "Your Uchiha clan should not exist, and your entire clan should be destroyed."
"Many people think so!" Funan said with a smile: "According to my understanding, there have been shinobi who are qualified to fight against the Uchiha clan, but unfortunately, they all perished."
“Now I will let you perish too!” Onoki’s tone was indescribably gloomy.
“Zehahaha! Then you try it!” Funan laughed loudly and rushed directly towards Onoki.
“Dust Release...”
Onoki clasped his hands together and used the dust release directly.
Funan laughed out loud and quickly avoided the Dust Release, then counterattacked with the Fire Release.
Onoki flew higher, dodging the attack.
"Earth Release: Golem Technique!"
A gigantic rock golem roared into view in front of Funan, throwing out a punch.
[Bang!]
A blood-red hand blocked the giant's blow.
Susanoo!
"I don't have that much time to play with you, little Onoki!" Funan laughed wildly. "Just go and die!"
Onoki remained unfazed and controlled the golem to attack again.
[Bang!]
At the moment when the rock giant punched Susanoo, Funan also pierced through the opponent with the sword in Susanoo's hand.
“You’re wrong!” Onoki shouted. “Earth Release: Ultra-Added-Weight Rock Technique!”
The golem's fist, which was still touching the Susanoo, began to gain enormous weight.
[Crack!]
The Susanoo was being pressured by the golem.
The brutal impact completely shattered Funan's Susanoo.
Immediately afterward Funan began forming stamps.
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
The battle between the two began again.
Funan did not use the complete form of Susanoo.
Too powerful a force would only make the other shinobi villages completely united.
Including Terumi Mei.
Although that woman had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with him, if she ever found herself facing an enemy that threatened Kirigakure, she would not hesitate to ally with others to try to eliminate it.
Therefore, Funan decided to gradually weaken his enemies, just as he did when he faced Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Of course, this is not the main reason.
The main reason is that Funan can increase his strength in such a battle.
If he used a full Susanoo and wiped out everyone in Iwagakure in an instant, there would be no bodies left to absorb life energy from.
However, now, he could fight while at the same time absorbing the life energy of the fallen bodies through the God Tree, strengthening his own power.
Looking at the fruit that is about to mature in his body, Funan is very satisfied.
Step by step, that was the best way.
This way, he wouldn't wake up those final bosses too early.
Uchiha Madara with the Rinnegan, Funan is very sure that he can't beat him now!
When he also obtained the Rinnegan, then they would be on equal footing to fight.
Not to mention that Kaguya!
