TUS Chapter 145: The Meowing Messenger
🕑 Added 2024-07-01 15:22:59 +0000 UTC"Hiruzen, you don't have to look at me like that. Everything I did..."
[Bang!]
Hiruzen entered combat mode. He stared at Danzo and said: "Dare to say that you did it for Konoha and I will crush your head!
Danzo took his words back wisely.
"Hiruzen, what should we do now?" Koharu was very anxious, and she was also very scared.
"What are you afraid of?" Hiruzen's cloudy eyes were full of indifference, and he said: "Last time, Danzo and I were attacked, and we still don't have an answer. I want Uchiha Funan to give us an explanation."
"That's it!" The others' eyes lit up.
At this thought, the others relaxed, except for Danzo, whose single eye was spinning restlessly.
He was deeply disgusted with Hiruzen's weakness. He had made up his mind to help Hiruzen toughen up.
...
The temporary camp of Iwagakure.
Onoki received a letter and fell into deep thought.
"Father!" Kitsuchi, who was nearby, looked at Onoki curiously.
"Take a look." Onoki handed the letter to Kitsuchi.
"This, this..." Kitsuchi took a look and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Is this true?"
"What do you think?" Onoki sneered. "Konoha is not peaceful either, which village has ever been truly peaceful?"
Kitsuchi looked at his father cautiously and said: "Then what are you going to do?"
Onoki glanced at his son and said: "What is your opinion?"
Onoki was very disappointed with his son. Although he was talented and had paved his own way, Kitsuchi lacked the vision and character needed to be a Kage.
Otherwise, he would have retired long ago.
At the age of seventy, he still insisted on being the Tsuchikage. Is it easy for him?
It was so hard to have a Deidara, but he was abducted by someone.
Thinking of this, he was furious.
For Onoki, Kitsuchi's only merit was having Kurotsuchi. Everything else was useless.
Kitsuchi looked cautiously at Onoki and said: "Father..."
"Call me Tsuchikage!"
"... Tsuchikage-sama!" Kitsuchi changed his words very straightforwardly and said: "I think we should stop the war against Konoha."
"Why?" Onoki had a blank expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking. He pointed at the letter and said: "This must have been sent by the top leaders of Konoha. It contains accurate information about Funan, and the other party also said that they would help us delay Funan's supplies and even tell us about the route for the transportation of supplies."
"This... is not necessarily reliable." Kitsuchi smiled bitterly and said: "If the other party plays tricks, our losses will be great. This time the loss is already not small."
Onoki looked deeply at Kitsuchi, sighed helplessly, and said: "I understand. You may leave."
'Oops! I was wrong again!' Kitsuchi was helpless. He only has this little ability, and he really can't guess what you big shots are thinking.
He'd rather just be an obedient bully. He was one for his father now, and he'll be one for his daughter in the future.
...
Negotiations between the three parties quickly began. Iwagakure and Kumogakure no longer wanted to continue fighting.
The main reason is that they can't win.
Funan is too strong.
Faced with this situation that mainly requires peace talks, Funan waved his hand and gave the envoy an order. "Go, ask for compensation. The more the better. Make Iwagakure and Kumogakure bleed."
This sentence made Kakashi, who was preparing to be the envoy, sweat coldly.
"Commander-in-chief, will this be..."
"Will it be what?" Funan glared at Kakashi and said: "They started the war, and now they want to end it when it suits them. Do we have no dignity in Konoha? Damn, look at your weak chicken look. If they didn't let me go, I would personally take action and dig out their kidneys."
Kakashi was speechless. He didn't know where to begin to criticize this statement. He had not yet recovered from his wounds. Moreover, he feared being killed at the negotiating table.
"Go, go, go!" Funan waved his hand impatiently and said: "One thing, ask for everything you can. If they don't give it to us, we'll keep fighting. This time, I want to attack Iwagakure or Kumogakure. Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"Wouldn't it be better to wait for the Hokage's orders?"
"The Acting Hokage!"
"โฆAwait orders from the Acting Hokage!"
"Wait for the order?" Funan sneered and said: "Who knows what the order will be. I am full of distrust of them now, so I won't wait. Now I am the boss. Follow my orders. Jiraiya, do you have any objections?"
"...No, and deactivate your Sharingan, I admit that I can't beat you, okay?" Jiraiya was frustrated. They were just talking and Funan already looked ready to fight. Also, why were there so many red eyes around? Where were the other shinobi?
"Do not look any further!" Funan said indifferently: "We are surrounded by Uchiha. If, as deputy commander, you dare to say one word against us, I will have you injured on duty, maybe then we can bring Tsunade back."
"Thank you, no need!"
"Kakashi, what about you?"
"I will obey orders without hesitation!" With a serious expression, Kakashi headed to the negotiating table.
As expected, the envoys of Iwagakure and Kumogakure were very dissatisfied.
"Are you Konoha people crazy?" Dodai sneered. "You dare to propose such conditions?"
"If they don't accept, we will continue fighting!" Kakashi repeated Funan's words.
Because he brought Funan's conditions, he really didn't know how to make it round.
Dodai was choked.
"We can't agree to such conditions!" Kitsuchi shook his head.
Kakashi said calmly: "Then there is nothing to talk about, let's go and do what we need to do."
Kitsuchi and Dodai frowned. "Is Konoha serious?"
"What do you think?" Kakashi asked back.
"If those are your conditions, we will continue to fight!" Kitsuchi's words were cold.
Dodai also nodded heavily.
Kakashi nodded lightly, got up and left.
This time, Kitsuchi and Dodai were stunned.
"Kakashi, are you serious?" Dodai said in disbelief: "Does Konoha really want to continue fighting?"
Kakashi turned his head and said helplessly: "I don't know if Konoha wants to fight or not, I just know that he seems to want to. He is the commander in chief."
Dodai and Kitsuchi were speechless.
Uchiha Funan? If it was up to him, it could really be possible.
"Don't regret it!"
Dodai and Kitsuchi threw down a sentence and turned away.
Kakashi sighed.
However, something unexpected soon happened.
On the way back, Kakashi met Dodai. Dodai's goal was clear: Kumogakure could not afford to pay so much in compensation, and he hoped that Kakashi could lower the price.
Kakashi was speechless. However, he also perked up. They want to negotiate? Good sign! That means they don't want to fight.
After some discussion, Dodai resignedly said that he would have to consult the Raikage, as he could not make such an important decision on his own.
Not much time had passed when another person appeared in front of Kakashi.
Kitsuchi!
They didn't plan this between the two of them, did they? Kakashi complained in his mind.
In fact, the two people really met when they were waiting for Kakashi on the road.
However, neither of them wanted to embarrass themselves, so they pretended not to have seen each other. One waited in front and the other behind, cooperating with great synchronization.
"We won't pay a single ryo!"
These are what Kitsuchi said.
Kakashi was a little confused. So, why have you come? To kill me? It's not that I'm arrogant, but you're just a fat guy, you really can't do it!
"But we can give you this." Kitsuchi handed a letter to Kakashi and said: "Tsuchikage-sama said that this letter will make up for all the reparations."
Kakashi was a little suspicious and said: "I will go back and report to the commander-in-chief, and he will decide everything."
The two separated.
When Funan received the letter, he said in front of Kakashi that he didn't want compensation from Iwagakure.
Kakashi was shocked. He was very intrigued, but Funan had no intention of satisfying his curiosity.
"Tell everyone to get ready!" Funan said calmly: "If Kumogakure does not give us a satisfactory answer, we will attack. Without Iwagakure, the pressure will be much less."
Everyone agreed. Fighting a single enemy would be easier.
But...
"Uchiha Funan, stop your behavior!" The Konoha emissary appeared in front of Funan. He was a member of the Nara clan.
Because Torifu served as the acting Hokage, Ino-Shika-Cho became proud, and even Uchiha was looked down upon by them.
At this moment, the Nara clan member in front of him arrogantly said: "The Acting Hokage has ordered you to return to the village immediately."
Funan glanced at him, and the man froze in place instantly, motionless, and then slowly walked to the side,
"Meow, meow, meow..."
Looking at the messenger squatting on the ground and meowing non-stop, Kakashi smiled bitterly.
