TUS Chapter 206: The Monkey Flees!
🕑 Added 2024-10-08 23:42:47 +0000 UTC"I need to think about it!"
"Me too!"
Pakura and Ao said one after another.
"Okay!"
Urus knew what the other party was going to do.
Report to their superiors.
In fact, let alone them, they also have to report to their superiors.
A matter as serious as declaring war... no matter how much they discussed it and it seemed like they had reached an agreement, if they did not obtain approval from above, everything would come to nothing.
Fortunately, after listening to Uchiha Funan's words, especially the content on the scroll, the Raikage and the Tsuchikage were so angry that they almost rushed over and fought with Uchiha Funan.
Was there a more humiliating way to treat someone?
Iwagakure and Kumogakure made a decision quickly.
However, after all, the four Kage would still have to meet face to face.
The Fourth Shinobi World War is about to start, and this cannot be decided in a few words.
What none of them knew was that when Pakura informed Rasa about the situation, he didn't hesitate at all and stated that he would join them in attacking Konoha. But as soon as he turned around, he began arguing with Pakura about which of the villages would be the most profitable to betray.
Pakura couldn't help but purse her lips.
What evil has possessed you?
Hearing that several villages were allying against Konoha, his first idea had been to betray the alliance... to support Konoha!
Could it have been a genjutsu from Funan?
Is it that powerful?
The originally planned four-on-one battle has now become three-on-two!
One is still hiding in the dark.
What they also didn't know was that while they were arguing, a figure was stealthily slipping out of their quarters and heading towards the Hokage's office.
That person was none other than Ao.
In his hand, he still holds the secret letter from Terumi Mei.
...
"Hokage-sama!"
Ao stood respectfully in front of Funan.
"Oh, Ao, what's up?" Funan raised his gaze slightly.
"Hokage-sama, the villages of Iwagakure and Kumogakure have already decided to attack Konoha." Ao whispered. "In addition, they have convinced Sunagakure and Kirigakure to join them."
"Did you Kirigakure agree?" Funan smiled playfully.
"By no means!" Ao immediately said: "Kirigakure and Konoha have always been allies. How could we violate the covenant? Moreover, we also oppose this meaningless war."
"Really?" Funan looked lazy and said: "Is this your idea or Terumi Mei's idea?"
"Of course it's the idea of Mizukage-sama."
"Terumi Mei..." Funan thought of that seductive woman, smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, I know."
That's it?
Ao hesitated slightly and said slowly: "Hokage-sama, Kirigakure has come with sincerity."
Funan looked at him and said nothing.
Sincerity?
I just heard you say it, but I didn't see anything.
Don't tell me that you are a traitor.
A fool knows that Iwagakure and Kumogakure will definitely take action.
And you expect me to trust what you say?
If you dare to treat me as a fool, I will kill you!
"This proves it." Ao pointed to his right eye.
It was a Byakugan.
Funan looked at him, smiled slightly, and said: "Then I won't be polite."
Ao suddenly felt a little dazed. When he came to his senses, his right eye was stinging. He groaned and knelt on the ground, blood flowing from his right eye.
Ao's single eye showed a look of horror.
All unnecessary thoughts disappeared from Ao's mind in an instant.
Funan looked at the bloody eye and casually threw it to Yako, who was standing to the side silently.
Yako took the eye and calmly placed it in a glass container.
Ao forced a smile and said: "Hokage-sama, do you believe it now?"
"It's okay!" Funan said: "What does Terumi Mei want?"
Ao breathed a sigh of relief.
Until a moment ago, Funan was not even willing to speak.
Facing Iwagakure and Kumogakure at the same time, Ao really didn't know where Funan's confidence was, and he dared to face them so toughly.
But considering the situation in Kirigakure right now…
If there is really a war, Kirigakure might be gone.
Terumi Mei's intentions were clear: to maintain the current stability in the shinobi world and to establish trade relations with Konoha, using Konoha to help restore Kirigakure.
Iwagakure and Kumogakure's plans were, in a way, a stroke of luck for Kirigakure.
Kirigakure, being on an island, had many resources that Konoha needed, such as various marine species and exclusive products close to the coast.
In Konoha, there were already those who wished to collaborate with Kirigakure, similar to how they had done with Sunagakure, obtaining great benefits.
Currently, Konoha was already importing many products from Kirigakure, buying them at high prices. What the people of Konoha, the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the nobles wanted was to obtain these products at more affordable prices.
Kirigakure's requirements are really not high. Funan just wrote a few strokes and Ao laughed so hard that his legs couldn't close. Which provoked Yako's contempt.
Kirigakure was already taken care of, or at least neutralized.
As for Sunagakure… with Rasa there…
"Hmm?" Funan was startled and said to Yako: "You leave first, there are guests coming."
"Hmm?" Yako was stunned.
However, to serve as Funan's secretary, one of her best qualities was her ability to follow orders without question.
With a calm expression, Yako nodded, quickly gathered her things, and walked out without looking back or asking questions.
Moments later, Pakura opened the door and entered the Hokage's office.
"It's really surprising, why are you here?" Funan smiled.
Pakura didn't say anything, but just threw himself into Funan's arms.
"Wait! There are still people here..."
"A woman?" Pakura growled. "I'm sorry. She must be yours, but never mind. If she wants to look, let her look. I'll teach her a thing or two." She added with a mischievous grin.
Funan: "..."
An hour and a half later.
Pakura lazily fell into Funan's arms.
"I say, what's wrong with you?" Funan stroked the most beautiful back in the shinobi world and teased: "Did you take the wrong medicine?"
"You think too much!" Pakura thought for a while and said: "I just don't want to live the same life as before."
Despite her status and power in Sunagakure, Pakura couldn't help but feel uneasy. She had the power to overthrow Rasa and become the new Kazekage, but Rasa had sworn loyalty to Funan, and that was none of Pakura's business. However, Rasa's hostility towards her never faded.
Although they had briefly cooperated on Funan's orders, Pakura lived in constant tension in Sunagakure. On the one hand, she had to face her own man and, on the other, she had to take care of Rasa, who could very well try to kill her.
In the process, some began to misunderstand, and hateful glances were not long in coming.
Pakura did not crave power. Since she did not want to fight for it, she had decided that from that day on, she would stay in Konoha as an ambassador.
"You've come to your senses?" Funan was surprised and said: "I thought it would take you a few years to figure it out."
Pakura ignored him and just asked: "What do you think about the future of Sunagakure?"
Funan smiled meaningfully and said: "Konoha's development is unstoppable. If Sunagakure doesn't want to confront us, it should follow us closely."
"While we develop, they can at least benefit."
Pakura nodded in relief. It was much better than she had imagined.
"Iwagakure and Kumogakure are preparing to attack Konoha."
Funan raised an eyebrow. "If I hadn't given you a satisfactory answer, wouldn't you have told me this?"
"That's not the case!" Pakura was not stupid, and immediately said: "It's just that after hearing this from you, I feel more at ease."
"Okay!" Funan said indifferently: "If Iwagakure and Kumogakure want to move, then let's fight. After a battle, they'll surely calm down."
"What about inside Konoha?" Pakura asked curiously. "What will you do with Sarutobi Hiruzen?"
"He ran away!"
"Did he run away?"
"Yes!" Funan said with a smile: "The meeting here just ended, and Sarutobi Hiruzen ran back to the Sarutobi clan at the fastest speed. He refused to come out. I gave orders in the name of Hokage, but he didn't come out."
"You didn't see how fast the monkey ran and how high he jumped. Kakashi and the others were shocked."
Pakura's mouth twitched.
"Not only does he not come out." Funan sneered. "Even the people of the Sarutobi clan have begun to retreat back to the Sarutobi clan."
Pakura was perplexed and, after a long silence, she muttered: "Did they go crazy?"
"It's fear." Funan chuckled. "They are too afraid that I will hurt them, so they did this stupid thing."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"What else can I do?" Funan said indifferently: "Guide public opinion and slowly deal with Sarutobi Hiruzen. Anyway, he is now hiding at home and dare not go out, so I will send someone to watch him."
Pakura said seriously: "Sarutobi Hiruzen has been the Hokage for so many years, he is definitely not a simple person, you must be careful, no one knows what his trump card is."
"Don't worry." Funan laughed. "I never underestimate anyone, especially the people of the Sarutobi clan."
Under the guidance of Iwagakure and Kumogakure, the four top shinobi villages are secretly targeting Konoha.
Of course, it is not an easy task to trigger the Fourth Shinobi World War.
During the discussion, everyone decided to hold a meeting of the Five Kage in the Land of Iron.
Funan also agreed with a smile.
The envoys of the four major shinobi villages left Konoha smoothly.
Iwagakure and Kumogakure were determined to attack, seeking to slow down Konoha's development and, if possible, take a big bite out of it.
They couldn't allow Konoha to continue growing at such a rate.
On the other hand, Kirigakure and Sunagakure had a different attitude. Although they supported Iwagakure and Kumogakure's decision, they did not take a definitive position on sending troops, arguing that they should consult with their leaders before deciding.
Although they did have to consult the Kage of the two villages afterwards, they could actually make decisions on many things themselves.
Especially Kirigakure, who was in a very weakened state and needed time to recover. After much thought, they decided that it was best to support Konoha.
"It's a shame Sunagakure is also in the game." Ao sighed.
If it weren't for them, Kirigakure would be able to enjoy all the benefits as Konoha's only neutral ally.
But that was no longer possible.
