TUS Chapter 131: The Great Mask Mishap
🕑 Added 2024-06-12 04:17:32 +0000 UTCShikaku and Torifu looked at each other, seeing the worry in each other's eyes.
Although several battles had already occurred, the main shinobi forces had not yet been mobilized.
But now, Onoki had struck at the heart of Kumogakure, killing shinobi and civilians alike, which would no doubt infuriate the Raikage.
"Will another world war break out?" Torifu muttered to himself.
"Whether the Fourth Shinobi World War will break out or not, we must be prepared!" Shikaku said seriously: "Acting Hokage, let's call a jonin meeting. We need to support the frontline where Funan is and prepare for any movement from Kumogakure."
"Okay!" Torifu sighed and nodded in agreement.
The jonin meeting went off without a hitch.
All the shinobi clans expressed their willingness to send people to support Funan and other borders.
Even Jiraiya had begun to busy himself with preparations.
Not only Konoha, other villages also began to prepare.
Except for Kirigakure, whose situation was unknown, the other villages were gathering forces at the borders.
But something unexpected happened.
Kumogakure and Iwagakure actually swallowed this bitter fruit.
Everyone thought that the Raikage would not be able to swallow this breath and would choose to go to war with Iwagakure, but the Raikage returned to the village and there was no movement.
The strange behavior of Kumogakure and Iwagakure is undoubtedly puzzling and worrying.
Even Funan was at a loss.
After deep thought, Funan wrote a letter to the Raikage.
"Dude, what's wrong? Are you hurt? Onoki blew your ass, and you didn't say anything? Beat him up!"
In response, the Fourth Raikage answered him with a single sentence.
"Get lost!"
"Too rude!" Funan muttered in dissatisfaction.
Kakashi didn't even have the energy to complain.
You wrote a letter like that, but they didn't go to war with Konoha directly, which was already quite sophisticated. You actually want them to treat you well?
"Is there any news from Shikaku?" Funan asked.
"Yes!"
"Shikaku has a guess."
"Speak!"
"He thinks that the reason why Kumogakure and Iwagakure didn't go to war is probably because of Konoha."
"Konoha?" Funan was startled and asked: "Why does he say that?"
"Suna is the weakest among the five major villages, and Kirigakure is hiding again. Although we don't have much information, we know how cruel the Blood Mist is, and their internal losses must be severe."
"Konoha, Kumogakure and Iwagakure were already strong and have recovered over the past three years."
"So..."
"Konoha has fought with Kumogakure and Iwagakure successively." Kakashi said seriously: "Kumogakure lost more than 3,000 shinobi, and Iwagakure lost nearly 5,000 this time. What about Konoha?"
Funan already understood, and still hummed: "We also lost more than 2,000 shinobi."
Kakashi smiled bitterly and said: "It can't be said like that, the shinobi we lost were mostly outside the official records. So, at first glance, Konoha not only has not lost strength, but has increased it."
"Fuck, that grandson of Hiruzen!" Funan cursed angrily. "They added 7,000 shinobi to Konoha out of nowhere."
The shinobi at headquarters felt uneasy, they were astonished that the 4 clans of the Konoha Corrupt Quartet had nearly seven thousand ninjas.
But what could they say? What would they dare to say? Apart from the Uchiha, who else could complain?
...
The shinobi world once again returned to a strange calm.
This time, Konoha didn't dare to mess around, and they didn't even dare to transfer Funan away.
Because the front-line Kumogakure and Iwagakure were gathering a large number of shinobi.
The war was imminent and could break out at any time.
But when war did not break out, Funan felt very bored.
"Ah, so boring!" Funan raised his head.
Kakashi was processing various documents.
Guy was howling while exercising.
The Uchiha were patrolling.
The Aburame clan, the Inuzuka clan...
Other shinobi also had their own tasks.
"What should I do?" Funan frowned and thought.
"Sure enough, I still have to find something to do for Hiruzen and the others!"
While thinking this, Funan noticed that his ring was emitting a chakra fluctuation.
He focused his mind on the ring.
The Ten Tails' large body was there, but this time, there was a person on each of its fingers.
The tenth member that Pain was waiting for had arrived?
Indeed, there was a man with white hair.
Funan narrowed his eyes.
"Hey, we have a new member, haha, I'm a veteran now! Hey, newcomer, call me Tobi... no, call me Tobio."
As expected, Funan received several looks of disgust and a furious glare from Obito.
Funan curled his lips and said: "What's wrong? It was just a slip of the tongue, I can't make a mistake when introducing myself?"
"Humph!" Obito snorted coldly. He was about to use Tobi's character to liven up the atmosphere but was instantly frustrated.
Kisame and others looked at Funan with strange eyes, and then looked at Tobi: "Hey, aren't you two the same person?"
"Of course not!" Funan immediately said: "Look at my sincere eyes. Am I a liar? By the way, my mask is different from his."
Everyone looked on curiously as Funan took out a mask and put it on. An awkward silence followed.
Is there any point in putting on a mask at this point? Don't they already know what it looks like?
Except Obito, who looked like he had been struck by lightning.
It was a silver metallic mask, with three tomoe-shaped holes in the eyes and forehead. The entire mask had a design reminiscent of the Rinnegan, with concentric waves.
Dammit! It was the mask that Obito had planned to use in the future, where had Funan gotten it from?
Obito's single eye nearly popped out of his mask.
An overwhelming bloodlust emanated from Obito.
The others looked at him in surprise.
"Tobi, what are you doing?" Pain's calm and low voice sounded. His eyes were also full of confusion.
"Nothing!" Obito quickly calmed down, his voice calm again. However, his eyes were still fixed on Funan.
That guy had to die. Otherwise, Obito feared that one day he would begin to doubt his own identity.
Was he really Uchiha Madara?
Was he really Uchiha Obito?
Could Uchiha Funan be a part of him?
He didn't have to wait any longer. Damn, he was already starting to doubt himself.
"Let me introduce you to this new member, Hiruko." Pain pointed to a white-haired man and said: "I'm sure many of you know him."
Funan had been watching everyone since he arrived.
Among them, Orochimaru initially seemed impatient, but upon seeing Hiruko, his eyes widened in astonishment.
Hiruko, however, was calm and greeted Orochimaru with a smile: "Orochimaru-kun, long time no see."
Orochimaru grinned and said: "Indeed, it's been a long time."
He had noticed it. Hiruko was different from before.
Interesting!
Orochimaru smiled meaningfully.
Akatsuki, that's great!
He had always thought that joining this organization was pointless, but now he realized that it was a treasure.
The Rinnegan, the Mangekyo Sharingan, Sasori's life puppet technique, and now Hiruko.
This is where he belongs!
"Hiruko, Hiruko!" Funan called him several times. "I am Funan, the Uchiha Funan who beat you up. I was twelve years old that year, and I beat you so hard that you almost fell to your knees and begged for mercy. Do you still remember me?"
After hearing Funan's words, Hiruko's breathing stagnated, and then he smiled.
"Funan-kun, how could I forget you? I still remember you clearly!"
“Really? Haha!” Funan scratched his head, as if he didn't hear the coldness in Hiruko's words and smiled honestly.
Everyone: "..."
"Enough!" Pain's voice echoed. "The ten members of the organization are gathered."
He paused, feeling some frustration.
Originally, there were some people who were also Akatsuki's recruitment target, but they were intercepted halfway and are now missing.
Pain glanced at Funan.
It was him!
Now, Konan had to appear ahead of time.
And Uchiha Madara had to show himself too.
"We will meet in three days." Pain said in a serious tone. "To get to know each other better."
Suddenly, the atmosphere changed.
"Haha, sounds good." Kisame smiled, showing his sharp teeth.
Then, everyone focused their attention on Funan.
They are all missing-nin, except him.
Funan hesitated for a moment and said: "If we time it right, there won't be any problem."
"Hey, hey, hey!" Deidara chuckled. "Aren't you afraid that the Hokage will find out that you've become a renegade?"
"When did I become a renegade?" Funan smiled slightly and said: "We just have a cooperative relationship, right?"
"Exactly." Pain replied calmly. "The last information you provided was valuable, Funan. I hope you have more."
"It's just the information about the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, it's nothing, I have more valuable information here." Funan laughed.
"For example?"
"For example, the love-hate relationship between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo."
"Why did Jiraiya disappear for several years during the Shinobi World War?"
"During the two years that Jiraiya desperately pursued Orochimaru, what happened between them?"
"The grudges and hatreds between the three disciples of Namikaze Minato."
"Enough!"
A loud shout rang out.
This was a sound of several overlapping voices, so that the people present could not tell who was shouting.
Pain said coldly: "Don't say these nonsense, you know what I want!"
"Okay, okay!" Funan curled his lips and said: "I also hope to get what I want from Akatsuki."
"What do you want?"
"I heard that you guys are paid to do things?"
"Yes!" Pain said: "Do you need to rely on our power?"
"Not now, but one day I will need the powerful force of Akatsuki." Funan smiled.
These people in Akatsuki are absolutely powerful.
If all ten of them joined together, they could destroy any village, including Konoha.
Such a large force should not be wasted.
