TUS Chapter 157: The Unlucky Torifu
🕑 Added 2024-07-23 00:14:27 +0000 UTCAt the same time that Funan had just defeated the missing-nin, just a few kilometers away from the battlefield, Onoki's fingers trembled slightly. His eyes were fixed on the Uchiha.
"Ugh, I miscalculated." Onoki sighed. He thought that under pressure from Suna, Kumo, and Iwa, Konoha would not be able to send enough troops to the front, and that Funan would probably travel with only a few men.
So he hired a bunch of missing-nin to wear down their combat power. Finally, he planned to attack them himself and finish off Funan.
But who would have imagined that these missing-nin would be solved in such a short time.
Onoki didn't dare to make a move now.
"Damn Uchiha, you shouldn't exist!" Onoki cursed, leading the few Iwa Jonin with him to retreat.
The Iwa Jonin looked at each other. Although they had made a wasted trip, they dared not say a word.
At this moment, Onoki, who had already flown into the sky, was suddenly startled and subconsciously looked in the direction of the Uchiha.
Funan was standing on a tree, looking at Onoki from a distance. When he noticed her gaze, he even gave her a smile.
Onoki felt a weight on his heart. At several kilometers away, even for a sensory shinobi, it was difficult to detect them.
At this moment, Onoki was actually glad that he didn't take action. If he had really taken action just now...
"Uchiha, we will settle the account sooner or later." Onoki muttered to himself.
...
The rest of the trip was uneventful for the Uchiha.
After the attack by the large group of missing-nin, they only encountered a few minor attacks which Funan and his group dealt with ease.
When they arrived at the main camp of the Konoha forces, the Uchiha were a little disappointed.
That's it? They haven't had enough fun yet.
They expected the fight against Kiri to be more exciting. The eyes of the Uchiha shinobi shone with excitement.
...
In the camp.
Three old men came out to welcome Funan's arrival.
However, they seemed to be competing to see who had the worst face.
"Muahahaha!" With a great laugh, Funan made his grand entrance. "At this moment..." Funan waved his hand and laughed: "Where are the applause?!"
Torifu just looked at Funan with resentment.
"Hey, long time no see! Did you miss me?" Funan said with a smile: "Fatty, Monkey, Cyclops! I missed you all so much!"
All three of them had the veins on their foreheads throbbing.
"Stop talking nonsense and come in now."
With that, Torifu was the first to enter the command tent, not wanting to see Funan's face anymore.
"Tsk!" Funan curled his lips and followed everyone in.
"We've had a lot of casualties this time..."
Torifu had barely begun to speak when Funan interrupted him.
"How many died in your clan? Come on, tell me quickly!"
Torifu was almost choked to death by this sentence.
"By the way." Funan turned his head to look at Hiruzen and Danzo, the excitement in his eyes was simply hard to conceal. "What about you? What about you?"
"Did everyone in your clans die?"
Hearing Funan's words, Hiruzen had a gloomy face.
"Enough!" Torifu growled and said coldly: "Funan, everyone believes in you and thinks that only by coming here can you solve the problem of Kirigakure. I wonder what you are going to do?"
Funan laughed and said: "Of course I am..."
"Urgent war report!"
A shout from outside interrupted.
"Hmm?"
Everyone was surprised.
"Come in!" Torifu called out. "What's the emergency?"
The shinobi walked into the big tent, knelt on one knee, and said nothing.
"Speak!" Torifu looked around. Except for the four of them, the rest are some elite jonin, who occupy considerable power in Konoha. Some military information on the front line does not need to be hidden from them.
"Acting... Acting Hokage." The shinobi stuttered, hesitating to speak.
"Speak!" Torifu was extremely nervous.
"Kirigakure..."
"What happened to Kirigakure?"
"Kirigakure has withdrawn!"
"What?"
The command tent fell silent.
Everyone stared at the shinobi with their eyes wide open.
"Say it again!" Torifu roared.
The shinobi, in a low but clear voice, said: "Kiri has retreated. It seems they are heading back to their village."
The fat on Torifu's face was shaking constantly. He felt dizzy.
Hiruzen and Danzo's eyes were a little dull.
The other shinobi had various expressions, some quite interesting.
Many people also focused their attention on Funan.
"Uchiha Funan!!!" Torifu roared. He widened his eyes and stared at Funan. "What did you do?"
Funan looked at Torifu with an embarrassed expression, muttering: "I ate a lot of dango without paying..."
[Bang!]
Torifu directly overturned the table in front of him and stared at Funan with a ferocious expression.
"What's wrong with you?" Funan asked sadly. "Isn't it just stealing a bunch of dango? Do you have to have that expression? What's wrong, do you still want to bite me?"
"You...you..."
There is no fat on Torifu's body that is not trembling.
Hiruzen's deep voice sounded: "Funan, you're going too far, aren't you?"
Funan turned his head, glanced at Hiruzen, and said: "Monkey, are you talking about me again? What did I do?"
Every time Hiruzen heard Funan call him like that he wanted to kill him.
"Uchiha Funan, I tell you, this matter is not over!" Torifu was breathing heavily, glaring at Funan. If it weren't for the place and timing, a fight would have already started.
Funan said dully: "Old Fatty, really? All this for a dango skewer? If you love them so much..."
“Aaahhh!!”
Hearing Funan's sarcastic words, Torifu finally couldn't take it anymore. He raised his staff and shouted, ready to fight Funan to the death.
Funan glanced at the Jonin present. Their expressions were clearly abnormal.
Funan understood that if Kiri's withdrawal had anything to do with him, these Jonin would feel resentment. However, this matter really had nothing to do with him!
Funan rolled his eyes. His original plan was to fight violently after reaching the front line and absorb some life energy.
Funan stroked his chin and muttered: "My reputation is that great? Even Uchiha Madara wouldn't be this impressive!"
Some people couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Aburame Shibi suddenly asked: "Funan, do you have anything to do with Kirigakure?"
Shibi's unexpected question surprised everyone.
Sensing everyone's doubts, Shibi said quietly: "I, too, have lost members of my clan in battle. I have the right to find out the truth."
That seemed like a good reason, but the real reason was that Funan had asked him to ask.
Hiruzen and Torifu were instantly overjoyed. It seemed like they could ally themselves with the Aburame clan.
"It has nothing to do with me!" Funan shook his head and said: "I don't know what exactly happened. Let's wait for the scouts to bring us news."
Danzo sneered. He would not miss such a good opportunity. Just as he was about to speak, Funan interrupted him.
"What are you laughing at? We've lost so many people and you're laughing. Could it be that you're allied with Kirigakure?"
Hearing this, the people present immediately focused their attention on Danzo.
To say that Funan had a connection with Kirigakure, the people present could only say that they were half-believing and half-doubting.
But to say that Danzo joined Kirigakure to deal with his own people...
Does anyone not believe it?
It would be strange if he didn't collude with Kirigakure.
"You're talking nonsense!" Danzo shouted angrily: "Uchiha Funan, it's obviously you..."
"It's obviously you who spent a huge price to invite me, and this happened!" Funan sneered and said: "Now I understand why you were so generous, you were waiting for this!"
Instantly, the expressions of those present became stranger and many jonin began to feel irritated.
What happened to Konoha? Do you have to make such a fuss? What did everyone get after all the fuss? Oh, no, you may get the position of Hokage, what about us? What can we get? If you are not careful, you will lose your life.
The Elite Jonin were full of complaints.
"Enough!" Torifu interrupted the discussion. "Let's wait for the results!"
However, regardless of the outcome, Funan and Danzo would not come out well.
This is simply a godsend! Torifu smiled.
If someone was allied with Kirigakure, the responsibility for the losses in the war could be shifted towards them.
With a little manipulation, Torifu could reduce his problems.
A day later, Torifu was completely crazy.
Hiruzen looked at him with compassion.
Kirigakure's withdrawal had nothing to do with Funan or Danzo.
"Replace the Mizukage? Fuck you, Kirigakure, all of you go to hell!" Torifu threw the information in his hand to the ground.
Seeing this information, all the senior officials of Konoha were silent.
Torifu had a gloomy face.
This luck is unmatched!
After Kirigakure's retreat, Torifu discovered that Konoha had suffered more casualties than Kiri.
"Waste!"
As Torifu was thinking about how Konoha would judge him, Funan blurted out that word.
"Fuck!" Torifu raised his head suddenly and stared at Funan.
"What's wrong?" Funan looked at Torifu in confusion and said: "Why are you looking at me like that? Did I do something to you?"
Torifu shouted: "Damn it, who are you insulting!"
[Bang!]
Funan stood up suddenly, kicked the table in front of him, rolled up his sleeves, and shouted: "Akimichi Torifu! I know you're in a bad mood, but that's no excuse to pick a fight. What's wrong? You think you can bully me? Come on, come on, let's face each other! I want to see how brave you are to bully me."
This time, it was Torifu's turn to be at a loss.
These past few days he had been in a bad mood and took his frustration out on everyone.
Everyone understood that, even Hiruzen. When they stood up to him, they usually gave in. After all, he was the acting Hokage, and he was already quite old. Being a little short-tempered at the moment was understandable.
But he had just run into Funan, who wasn't willing to give in one bit.
