TUS Chapter 202: Sorry, No Returns on Tailed Beasts!
🕑 Added 2024-10-06 22:35:30 +0000 UTCFunan looked at the people present and said lightly: "Okay, let's not say those spoiling words. Everyone, please sit down. As the Hokage, I welcome the envoys from Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure and Sunagakure. Oh, yes, there is also the envoy from the daimyo."
The envoy of the daimyo had a black face at this moment.
He wanted to explode.
But when he met Funan's icy gaze, all his courage vanished completely.
He sat in the corner in a sullen manner, without saying a word.
Compared to dignity, he wanted to live more!
He was a noble, he was still young, he wanted to return to the Land of Fire and continue his drunken life.
What's the point of dying in Konoha?
Will anyone feel sorry for him?
Other nobles would probably spit and say disdainfully: a fool!
The shinobi from other shinobi villages looked at each other.
Damn!
This momentum is too strong.
At this moment, Funan completely took the initiative.
After everyone sat down and had a brief conversation, Kitsuchi took the lead in asking.
"Hokage-sama, it is said that the four-tailed beast of my village is now in the hands of your village. I wonder if it can be returned to our Iwagakure?"
"Definitely not!"
Funan shook his head directly and said: "That is a tailed beast. I bought it with real money. You open your mouth and want to take it back. Do you think you're that important?"
"This..." Kitsuchi was stunned.
The messengers of other shinobi villages were also stunned.
Even the Konoha shinobi were surprised.
Good fellow!
He was just probing to see if the Tailed Beast was really in his hands. Originally, he thought that even if Funan didn't admit it, he had a backup plan.
But you admitted it so easily?
There was another moment of silence in the reception room.
Then, Kitsuchi suddenly stood up and said angrily in a cold voice: "Hokage-sama, the Four-Tails has always been my Iwagakure's property. Do you want to take it by force?"
"Always?"
Funan yawned and said: "'Always' since when, exactly?"
Without waiting for Kitsuchi to answer.
Funan continued: "According to records, the Four-Tails was wild, until the First Hokage captured it and handed it over to Iwagakure. Now, I bought it from another group, Akatsuki. So what? Do you want me to return it to you?"
"Since when do you say the Four-Tails is from Iwagakure?"
"This... this..." Kitsuchi stuttered a little.
That's it?
Funan looked at Kitsuchi with some disappointment.
We'd barely started and you're already giving up!
Tsk! Tsk!
Urus suddenly said: "Hokage-sama, do you mean to say that you are going to collect all the tailed beasts?"
"How is it possible?" Funan said: "I am not a psychopath like the Raikage. Why would I collect so many tailed beasts for no reason? This time it was a coincidence. Akatsuki was short of money, so I bought the tailed beasts."
Urus automatically filtered out some of Funan's words and continued saying: "So, the Two-Tails of our Kumo Village..."
"The two-tailed beast was also bought by me!" Funan admitted it very straightforwardly. "If you want If you want to fight, don't look for me, go to Akatsuki, they captured the two-tailed beast. "
Ao intervened: "Hokage-sama, then the Three-Tails of Kirigakure..."
"Kirigakure has the three-tailed beast?" Funan was surprised and said: "Who is the Jinchuriki?"
Ao was startled and said: "There is no Jinchuriki, the three-tailed beast has always been in Kirigakure, there is no Jinchuriki."
"There is no Jinchuriki?" Funan was even more surprised and said: "Then how do you prove that the three-tailed beast is yours? When the Akatsuki organization discovered it, the three-tailed beast was in a wild state, and your claim is even more untenable!"
Ao stopped talking.
He has already got what he wanted. No matter what Funan said, one thing has been confirmed.
The three Tailed Beasts were in the hands of Uchiha Funan.
What was he planning?
Even the Konoha shinobi were perplexed.
The only person who is happy now is probably Sarutobi Hiruzen. He tried hard and finally held back his smile.
With his status, he should be more worried about the safety of Konoha.
But he was about to go mad because of Uchiha Funan and could not tolerate him continuing to destroy Konoha at will.
Even if there is blood, Uchiha must be completely eliminated!
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Funan, then glanced at the other representatives of the shinobi villages present. His gaze slowly scanned the faces of the shinobi from the four villages.
His expression became increasingly unperturbed.
For Konoha, some necessary sacrifices are inevitable.
What's more, if a real fight breaks out, the ones who will be sacrificed are also the rebels loyal to the Uchiha!
The new Konoha doesn't need them!
Hiruzen's eyes became colder and colder.
In fact, Hiruzen admitted that under the management of the Uchiha, Konoha did develop, and its economic and military strength were stronger than when he was in power.
But there are too many things wrong with Uchiha Funan.
His own existence is the biggest mistake.
He is an Uchiha!
Under this premise, everything he did was in vain.
Uchiha, like Senju, should withdraw from the stage of history!
Hiruzen's gaze became even more complex and profound.
Everything is for Konoha!
Urus stood up, stared at Uchiha Funan, and said: "Hokage, no matter what you say, the two-tail belongs to Kumogakure. If you insist on not returning it..."
"Start a war?" Funan asked back. "Are you sure?"
His expression was still relaxed, but it brought great pressure to Urus.
Uchiha Funan, he was like a ferocious beast. As long as you dare to disobey him, he will tear you apart the next moment.
Urus, hesitant, tried to articulate his words: "Hokage-sama, when the first Hokage gave the tailed beasts to Kumogakure, he clearly stated that the two-tailed and eight-tailed belonged to Kumogakure."
"What the First Hokage decided, I, as the current Hokage, have the right to change it." Funan interrupted, bluntly. "Do the Raikages in your village strictly follow what the previous Raikages decided? Haven't things changed?"
Urus was breathing heavily. The Raikage had ordered him to firmly confront Konoha, without fear of war. He had made it clear that if Sarutobi Hiruzen was still in charge, there would be no conflict. But with the Uchiha, confrontation was inevitable.
If there was a war, Kumogakure was not afraid!
Because it was not just Kumogakure that was facing Konoha, there were also Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and even Sunagakure.
Urus looked at the representatives of the other shinobi villages.
Come on, talk now! Or do you really want Kumogakure to face Konoha alone?
Then don't blame me for turning against you!
Kitsuchi slowly stood up and said: "Hokage-sama, if you are really going to go through with this, Iwagakure can only apologize."
"There is no need for apologies. We all look out for our villages, I understand that perfectly." Funan lazily stood up and said: "Okay, let's do it this way, start the war, set a time, and we will fight directly. As for Sunagakure and Kirigakure, you wait a moment, I have something to say to you."
Kitsuchi and Urus's eyes widened.
They both looked at Ao and Pakura.
If Funan returned the tailed beasts to those villages, it is difficult to say what choice they would make.
Iwagakure and Kumogakure wanted to weaken Konoha's power.
But Kirigakure was in ruins, and the last thing they wanted was more war. And Sunagakure, for its part, had been collaborating with Konoha in recent years, which had been extremely beneficial to them.
Ao frowned, deep concern shining in his one eye.
The fire suddenly burned on himself.
Pakura, however, remained calm, ignoring the gazes of Urus and Kitsuchi.
"Cough! Cough!"
A burst of coughing sounded.
Sarutobi Hiruzen!
Funan immediately said with concern: "Third Hokage-sama, are you alright? Don't tell me you can't take it anymore? Be careful, if the war against Kumogakure and Iwagakure starts, as the former Hokage, you will have to set an example. It wouldn't be good for you to leave us now."
Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."
"Funan!" Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed. "If Konoha has something going on, I will naturally not stay out of it. However, looking at Konoha now, is it really a good time to start a war?"
Funan asked curiously: "Then when do you think it is appropriate to start a war? I will discuss it with these two."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was choked again.
Kitsuchi and Urus also twitched their eyebrows.
Funan spread his hands and said: "The problem is that I hear you, but they don't."
"Funan!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said earnestly. "The tailed beasts were given by the First Hokage to the shinobi villages to maintain the balance of power. Now that you have captured three of them for Konoha, you are breaking that balance and causing a war. Do you know how many people will die because of this?"
Urus and Kitsuchi exchanged glances, nodding slightly.
Thinking about their conversation with Sarutobi Hiruzen a few days ago.
…Once the war starts, the enemy is only Uchiha!
…Konoha is not your enemy!
…The enemy of Uchiha is the entire shinobi world!
Now, Kitsuchi and Urus seemed more relaxed.
"Third Hokage, I don't agree with that." Funan shook his head and said: "I always say the same thing, are the decisions made by previous Hokage always correct?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned deeply, looking unhappy.
Although both of them wanted to kill each other, they wanted to roll up their sleeves and point at each other's noses and scold.
But in front of so many people, they should keep up appearances as best they can...
Well... Only Hiruzen did.
Because Funan never had a good image to begin with.
