TUS Chapter 154: Fractured Alliances
🕑 Added 2024-07-16 20:25:37 +0000 UTCThe Kirigakure's tactic of mutual destruction was still going on.
Both sides had lost more than two thousand people.
Looking at the Konoha shinobi, who had lost nearly half of their number, Torifu's fat was trembling all over his body.
He had summoned as many powerful shinobi in the village as he could, but the effect was not very effective.
Because Kirigakure sent the Kaguya clan to the battlefield. As for suicide tactics, they were the masters! Under their frenzied attacks, Konoha's losses were devastating.
"Roar!"
With a roar, Torifu, in his giant form, struck a shinobi covered in bones, breaking him into pieces.
A shinobi emerged from the wreckage.
He was from the Kaguya clan!
"Fire Release: Dragon Rock Technique!"
The two Hiruzen performed ninjutsu at the same time, one using fire release and the other using earth release
After the two ninjutsu merged, the power was even greater, and they directly killed a Kaguya shinobi.
However, the other shinobi of the Kaguya clan did not show even a hint of fear. Instead, their faces were filled with excitement.
They rushed up again one after another.
The earth cracked. Countless bones emerged from it. In the blink of an eye, the whole earth turned into a forest of bones.
Dance of the Seedling Fern!
This is the battlefield of the Kaguya clan.
Even Hiruzen felt a toothache. The madman is so scary! These lunatics, like the Uchiha, should not exist.
"Torifu!" Hiruzen could not help but shout.
Continuing like this was not an option.
Torifu took a look and shouted: "Where is Danzo?"
Fuck! Hiruzen was speechless. What time is it, you are still staring at Danzo.
“Torifu, this can’t continue, we can’t go on like this!” Hiruzen’s face was pale.
"Asshole!" Torifu roared and struck out with his staff.
[Boom!!]
A huge crack appeared, and several members of the Kaguya clan were smashed on the spot.
But another wave of Kiri shinobi arrived.
Torifu was livid.
The shinobi of Konoha began to retreat.
This battle did not last long, but both sides left more than 500 bodies.
In the command tent, the top leaders of Konoha were very silent.
Torifu didn't even think about looking for trouble with Danzo.
He sat in the main seat in a daze.
Konoha's losses have exceeded half. He thought about continuing to transfer shinobi from the village but was rejected by Shikaku.
Iwagakure and Kumogakure were amassing troops at the borders, making it clear to Konoha that they could not concentrate all their forces in Kirigakure.
"Ahem!"
Seeing Torifu's blank expression, Hiruzen couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. But this is a battlefield, Torifu can't just sit there in a daze.
Hiruzen said: "Torifu, what should we do now?"
The losses between the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan were also significant, which made Hiruzen feel pained, but he couldn't blame Torifu.
Because the losses of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio were even greater!
Who would have thought that Kirigakure would be so crazy.
If they continue to fight like this, after this battle, there will be no Kirigakure in the shinobi world.
"What should I do..." Torifu muttered to himself, and suddenly looked up and said: “Hiruzen, can the Blood Mist of Kirigakure really produce shinobi like these?”
Hiruzen's face changed slightly, and he said: "What do you mean by that?"
“No, nothing in particular.” Torifu shook his head, and his fat face suddenly showed endless ferocity, and he said coldly: “If Kirigakure wants to continue fighting, we will oblige them!”.
"Torifu!" Hiruzen exclaimed.
However, the fat man just raised his staff and shouted to the other leaders: "Since Kirigakure wants to destroy its own village, let's fulfill its wish!"
"Notify Shikaku to send us reinforcements. As many as he can! I'm going to raze Kirigakure to the ground!"
At once, both Danzo and Hiruzen understood Torifu's intentions.
He needs a big victory to establish his position as Hokage.
If Kirigakure was destroyed by Torifu, then Torifu would undoubtedly stand at the top of the entire shinobi world.
No matter how many shinobi Konoha sacrificed, everyone would choose to ignore it.
But what would he do with the Uchiha? Hiruzen was furious. Would Torifu take all the glory? And what about them?
Uchiha will definitely kill them if they have the chance.
They fought hard and sacrificed a large number of clansmen. What is it for?
So that Torifu could take all the credit? Were they really that noble? They didn't even know it themselves!
Hiruzen stared at the old fat man coldly.
Was this really Torifu's way of acting? Besides, sacrificing so many shinobi to destroy Kirigakure, would it really guarantee Torifu's rise to Hokage? That remained to be seen!
However, the old fat man has reached this point, and he has to fight. After sacrificing too many people, there must be an explanation!
"What?" Torifu stared at Hiruzen with cold eyes and said: "Hiruzen, if you have any different opinions, tell me. As long as it makes sense, I will definitely listen."
"Let Uchiha Funan come!" Hiruzen said without hesitation. "Funan has rich experience in fighting Kirigakure. As long as he comes, we will have a greater chance of success and can sacrifice fewer shinobi in Konoha."
Torifu felt a twitch in his eye.
The two looked at each other coldly.
One wanted to sacrifice a large number of shinobi in exchange for the complete destruction of Kirigakure and gain great prestige.
The other wanted to sacrifice the future of Torifu in exchange for the lives of his own shinobi.
Neither of them was willing to back down.
They couldn't back down either. There was a bottomless abyss behind them.
The others in the tent fell silent at the same time.
[Boom!!]
At that moment, another huge explosion was heard.
"Damn it!"
"Kirigakure, I will not forgive you!"
Torifu shouted angrily and ran away.
Seeing Torifu rushing out, Hiruzen quickly winked at Danzo.
Danzo had a bitter face. He understood what Hiruzen meant!
Bring Funan to the front line? How to do it? You can't just knock him out and bring him directly! If he has this time, wouldn't it be better for him to just give Uchiha Funan a knife?
Thinking again and again, Danzo really didn't know what to do.
Hiruzen had a gloomy expression. In his mind, thousands of curses were running through his mind.
Useless! Before, Danzo had been so useful, but now, he was a waste!
"Idiot!" Hiruzen shouted angrily, gritting his teeth and said: "Use money!"
Danzo was stunned. What the hell? Can money get Uchiha Funan to the front line? Are you kidding me?
In an instant, Danzo understood, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
So Danzo sent a clone to Konoha. The negotiation with Funan could only be done by himself.
...
Konohagakure.
Reports from the front continued to show great victories and many enemy casualties.
Funan glanced at it and threw it aside. Too lazy to read it!
He waited patiently for the situation to get out of hand. He was sure it would happen soon.
"Have you learned everything I taught you yesterday?" Funan picked up the textbook, looked at it, threw it aside, and looked up at the children in front of him.
After finishing looking through the clan documents, Funan, bored, decided to teach ninjutsu to some Uchiha children. This caused quite a commotion in the clan. Who didn't know that Uchiha Funan was a powerful shinobi?
Even Fugaku attended. Not to mention Shisui and Itachi.
Funan quite enjoyed being a teacher. Not only did he teach classes today, but he also often went to the training camp to watch the Uchiha shinobi train.
From time to time, he will speak and instruct the Uchiha shinobi.
For Funan, it was just casual advice, but for many shinobi, it was a great help.
A day passed quickly.
In addition to teaching the Uchiha children and solving the doubts for the adult Uchiha shinobi, Funan also rejected Shikaku's invitation.
"Don't say anything, don't say anything, I'm tired, I'm going to rest in the clan for a few days."
"Shikaku, I am a person, not a tool. I have fought so many times. You cannot just catch a person and use them to death."
"No! Is this your plan? You want to tire me to death!"
"You are so vicious, you actually used this method to calculate me!"
When Funan said this, the Uchiha clan suddenly erupted with amazing murderous aura.
Shikaku, along with the ANBU members, retreated in shame.
"Shikaku-sama, what should we do?" An ANBU said helplessly. "The Acting Hokage and the Third Hokage may not be able to hold on."
Shikaku said unhappily: “What do we do? How am I supposed to know? Damn Danzo!”
The ANBU was stunned for a moment. Danzo? What does this have to do with Danzo-sama?
Shikaku snorted. “Other than cursing him, who else can I curse? Damn Danzo, damn it!”
After saying that, he turned and left. He still has a lot of documents to deal with, so where is the time to waste here.
Since they couldn't count on Uchiha Funan, they would have to find another way.
Because he left in a hurry, Shikaku didn't notice that in a corner, Danzo was gritting his teeth and looking at him.
Damn it. Just wait! You won't be arrogant for long! The era of Danzo will eventually come!
Danzo walked into the Uchiha clan with a sullen face. He did not hide his intentions, so the Uchiha quickly detected it.
Danzo is here!
This news spread throughout the Uchiha clan in a short time.
One after another, the Uchiha were filled with murderous intent.
