TUS Chapter 84: Deals and Disquietude
🕑 Added 2024-04-25 02:36:04 +0000 UTC"It's fine." Hiruzen gritted his teeth and accepted the deadline given by Torifu to hand over the Finance and Logistics Departments.
"This..." Hiruzen held up the census plan in his hand.
Torifu said calmly: "Let's talk about it later!"
Hiruzen and the others walked out of the office with heavy expressions on their faces.
"Hiruzen!" Koharu asked anxiously. "How can the Finance Department and Logistics Department be handed over..."
Hiruzen asked back: "To control the ANBU is to control the Hokage's life. You are the Hokage. Are you willing?"
Koharu remained silent.
ANBU cannot be lost, it is a very powerful military department and control over it is crucial.
To continue controlling the ANBU means having to sacrifice something.
However, they did not expect that the old fat man Torifu had such a big appetite.
Konoha is becoming more and more out of control.
Hiruzen suddenly sighed and said: "I fell into my old habit."
"What do you mean?"
"The ANBU should have been abandoned from the beginning."
"What?"
…
"Funan, what are you implying?"
Torifu looked at Funan with an unkind look and said: "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
If Funan had spoken, Torifu wouldn't be so worried.
Funan said in surprise: "You performed very well and were very impressive. What should I say?"
"You..." Torifu sat on the chair angrily, glanced at Funan, and asked curiously: "What are you drawing?"
"Oh!" Funan said nonchalantly. "Before the matter of Sunagakure and Kumogakure comes out, I have a lot of free time and just want to make a movie for fun."
"You, you want to make a movie?!" Torifu felt an extremely bad premonition in his heart, and he said in a trembling voice: "Funan, can I watch the movie first when it's ready?"
"Sure, but why that expression?"
Funan frowned. "Do not trust me?"
"No, I trust you too much."
"Your expression doesn't match what you're saying. You seem scared."
Torifu looked at Funan speechlessly. 'That's true, I'm really scared.'
"Anyway, we agreed that after you finish filming, you must let me see it first."
Funan said dissatisfied: "Do you think there will be anything inappropriate in my movie?"
"No, I'm worried it's too appropriate." Torifu said seriously.
Funan: "..."
Torifu and Shikaku looked at each other.
"Funan, we had some misunderstandings before, but we hope to cooperate sincerely in the future."
"Is there any misunderstanding?" Funan said in surprise. "Don't we always cooperate well?"
Torifu's face twitched, and he said helplessly: "Ino-Shika-Cho will hand over another 100 million ryo. Also, when the Finance department is in our hands, I will find a way to get another hundred million more."
"The same for the Logistics department. After receiving it, I will take out some strategic supplies and send them to the Uchiha, compensating some of the money. I guess you will agree."
"Oh, Hokage-sama is too kind." Funan immediately said with a smile. "The Finance and Logistics departments should be under the control of Hokage-sama. Who would dare stop him? Whoever stands in the way will become my enemy, even if it is Hiruzen."
Torifu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled: "The Sunagakure Investigation Team will arrive in Konoha tomorrow. Uchiha should keep an eye on them and not let them do something they shouldn't do."
"Don't worry about this!" Funan was very cooperative at this time.
Looking at Funan's back, Torifu sighed. If he had a choice, he would definitely not want to cooperate with Uchiha. Those guys are so dangerous. Especially Funan!
However, he had no other choice. Hiruzen obviously did not want to delegate power, and everyone planned to squeeze him out.
"Where is Jiraiya?" Torifu suddenly asked. "And Kakashi!"
Shikaku said: "You don't have to worry about Jiraiya. If he wants, he will surely become Hokage this time. Besides, lately he has gotten very close to the Kyubi's Jinchuriki."
"Oh!" Torifu showed a sarcastic smile and said: "Minato's son is like Jiraiya's grandson. He's probably very angry at Sarutobi Hiruzen for treating him like that."
"It is said that the two had a dispute a few days ago."
Shikaku said: "With Jiraiya's personality, it's probably true."
Torifu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Actually, with Jiraiya's personality, even if he becomes the Hokage, we don't need to worry."
"That's true!"
"Where's Kakashi?"
Shikaku showed a strange expression and said: "Kakashi seems to be in a strange state lately."
"What?" Torifu narrowed his eyes.
The people most likely to become Hokage on Sarutobi Hiruzen's side are Jiraiya and Kakashi.
"He's putting a lot of effort into his training recently." Shikaku said. "However, it seems more like letting off steam."
"Vent? Who provoked him?" Torifu showed a malicious smile and said: "It couldn't be Funan, right? Besides him, who else has the ability to bring someone to the brink of collapse?"
Shikaku was speechless for a moment before saying: "Don't always think that Funan is involved in this. He's not... not necessarily... well, probably not Funan."
"They have no connection to each other, and if they did, it would be disastrous."
Shikaku felt defeated under Torifu's contemptuous gaze.
Torifu thought for a moment and said: "Is it about Hatake Sakumo?"
"It's possible."
"Keep an eye on him!" Torifu said calmly. "Although the Hatake Sakumo incident made Kakashi feel resentful, after all, it was Danzo who did it and it had nothing to do with Sarutobi Hiruzen."
"Kakashi should understand too, that's why he has been at peace with the other party for so many years. If Sarutobi Hiruzen is really looking for him, Kakashi should help."
"I have it in mind." Shikaku said. "The rest depends on Sunagakure. Let's see what these guys are going to do. It's best to have conflicts with Kumogakure."
"Honestly speaking, I don't understand what Kumo is planning. They have mobilized such a powerful force."
…
Funan hummed a tune as he walked down the street, at the same time he focused on the God Tree inside his body.
The two fruits are almost ripe again.
Funan, walking down the street, suddenly started.
A blond boy with a whisker-like facial marking was approaching him.
Uzumaki Naruto!
Funan did not stop his pace, he glanced at him and then looked away.
The Sharingan was reflected in his pupils. Funan entered a strange space. A huge sleeping creature suddenly woke up and stared at him coldly.
"Hey, hello, Kyubi, this is the first time we've met!" Funan waved across the cage. He looked at the water under his feet and murmured: "The living conditions are really bad, it's like a slum. No, it should be a sewer!"
"Roar!" Kyubi's cold eyes showed endless killing intent, and it rushed to the cage, revealing its sharp fangs. "Uchiha!"
"That's right." Funan remained imperturbably in his place, facing the Kyubi's advance, he did not move at all, with contempt in his eyes, he said: "Seeing these eyes, do you think of a certain man who treated you like a toy?"
"Damn it!" The Kyubi hit the cage hard but was repelled again.
"What a bad temper!" Funan smiled and said: "I'll get straight to the point, Kyubi, give me some of your power, I want to do an experiment."
"Haha, are you dreaming?" After going through its initial rage, the Kyubi calmed down.
It slowly arched its body and made an attacking posture. It stared at Funan with its fierce eyes and shouted coldly: "Go away! Me and Uchiha have nothing to do with each other, nor will I make any deal with you." Kyubi looked at Funan with disgust. From this guy's eyes, he did see the figure of that man.
That irritated him.
Funan smiled slightly: "Someone is collecting tailed beasts."
Kyubi was unmoved.
"It is said that they want to recreate something called the Ten-Tails. Do you know what that is?"
These words made Kyubi almost jump. "What did you say?!" Kyubi roared and hit the cage hard.
"See you, Kurama." Funan smiled slightly and slowly disappeared.
"How do you know...damn it!"
"Damn it, stop it and speak clearly! Uchiha!" Kyubi kept roaring, and it hit the cage crazily. A large amount of power began to leak out, but it was tightly restricted by the seal.
"Damn Uchiha, damn the Fourth Hokage!"
"They can't stop me, they can't!"
"Roar!!!"
"The Ten-Tails? Damn, how is that possible?"
"Six Paths..."
…
At this moment, Funan had already passed by Naruto. He could feel the gazes around him locking onto him. He knew they were ANBU.
Any approach by an Uchiha to the Jinchuriki would attract their attention.
What's more, Funan just used his Sharingan on Naruto.
In the past, that would have resulted in his immediate arrest.
But now, things were different. Funan didn't make any further moves, and they didn't dare to stop him, they could only watch him leave helplessly.
However, they still reported the news to the Third Hokage.
"Third Hokage, Acting Fifth Hokage, I have caused you a little trouble, you won't blame me, right?"
…
Sure enough, the Third Hokage immediately approached Torifu.
"You said Funan came into contact with the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki?" Torifu frowned and said: "Is there any abnormality in his chakra?"
"Yeah." The Third Hokage said. "Torifu, what do you think of this?"
Torifu thought for a while and said: "You don't need to worry about this matter. I will ask Funan."
The Third Hokage said calmly: "Torifu, my bottom line is that Uchiha must not have any interaction with the Jinchuriki, otherwise..." His gaze was filled with infinite cold, which was suffocating.
