TUS Chapter 62: Hokage Haggling
🕑 Added 2024-03-17 23:14:47 +0000 UTC"Don't worry." Funan waved his hand and said: “Itachi, call the medical-nin and have them put Shisui's eye back in.”
"That's a transplant!" Itachi chuckled and said: "Don't worry, Brother Funan, you also have to be careful. The Hokage faction will not let go of any opportunity."
"Um!" Funan left.
Shisui looked at Itachi and said with a little envy: "Itachi, you really trust Funan."
Itachi suddenly became serious and said: "Brother Shisui, this time, you disappointed Brother Funan."
"We weren't originally planning to act, but we ended up on the brink of a direct confrontation with the Hokage faction. This is all your fault."
Suddenly hearing this accusation, Shisui couldn't help but be startled, speechless, or rather a little ashamed. Itachi was his friend, and the relationship between the two was originally very close.
The honest man Shisui was really angry this time. How much did he trust the Hokage and Danzo?
…
The Third Hokage sat alone in the Hokage's office, smoking a cigarette.
Koharu and Homura were gone. They really didn't want to see Funan.
What kind of actions has he taken? Is that what a person does? Furthermore, not only is he evil himself, he has also corrupted the Uchiha Clan.
The Uchiha clan of the past was so good. They gritted their teeth and looked at them, but they didn't dare to go further in the slightest.
Now!
Yashiro even directly insulted Koharu.
This is unbearable!
Hiruzen was also thinking about how to deal with this matter.
The negotiation with Akimichi Torifu just ended. The conditions offered were vague and not as easy as I expected.
At this time, an exaggerated laugh sounded.
"Zehahaha!"
The voice was extremely arrogant and harsh, and Hiruzen couldn't help but shudder.
The other people in the Hokage Residence also looked at each other.
Torifu, who had just walked out of the Hokage Building, heard Funan's laughter for the first time. His fat body trembled, and he turned to look at Shikaku who was following behind him.
"How about we consider cooperating with the Hokage? This laugh is absolutely that of a villain. He is too shameless!"
Shikaku smiled bitterly and whispered: "Uncle, the first tranche of funds has been sent to Uchiha. Do you think they will withdraw it?"
"Forget it then!" Torifu immediately shook his head.
...
Funan strutted into the Hokage's office.
Hiruzen was smoking, his expression no longer as kind as before.
Anyway, everyone had already crossed the line, and the only thing missing was a direct confrontation. The Third Hokage no longer bothered to hide his true feelings from him.
He frowned slightly, seemingly deep in thought, completely ignoring Funan.
'Show off your power?' Funan smiled slightly and let the Third Hokage break his guard with one sentence. "Hiruzen, what are you thinking about?"
The Third Hokage's eyes snapped open, then he looked coldly at Funan.
Funan continued his verbal attack. He raised a finger to the Third Hokage and said: "One hundred million ryo!"
The Third Hokage was startled at first, then understood and said flatly: "Impossible!"
"Goodbye then!" Funan turned around and was about to leave.
"Stop!" The Third Hokage shouted sharply.
[Swoosh!]
Several figures appeared around Funan, staring at him coldly.
The Hokage also stood up slowly, his thin body bursting with amazing momentum.
Funan smiled slightly as he activated the Sharingan. "What's wrong, Hiruzen? Are you sure you want to fight me? Here at the Hokage Residence."
"How are you going to explain afterwards? I'll give you two excuses: Uchiha rebellion, or Uchiha Funan assassinating Hokage?"
"Then you must be prepared, not only to face the doubts from the outside world, but also to get rid of me at once, otherwise..."
The Third Hokage's face darkened, and he waved his hand, signaling the ANBU to retreat.
"One hundred million ryo, it's impossible!"
He understood what the one hundred million ryo meant, that's what Funan wanted as compensation for the silence.
"It's too much, at most twenty million ryo."
"One hundred and twenty million ryo."
The Third Hokage choked and said under his breath: "Forty million ryo."
Funan smiled evilly and replied, "One hundred and forty million ryo!"
The Third Hokage looked at Funan with cold eyes.
"What?" Funan looked at Hiruzen, who had a gloomy and uncertain face, and suddenly smiled and said: "It seems that you have made a decision. Well then, let's fight openly! The three Mangekyo Sharingan of my Uchiha clan fear no one."
"If you want to fight, I'll be happy to."
"No, Hiruzen!" A cry of surprise came.
Koharu and Homura pushed the door open, their expressions nervous but determined. Even more surprising was the last person to enter.
Danzo!
The Darkness of the Shinobi, the only member of the Konoha Corrupt Quartet who was truly tough.
Judging from his appearance, he actually came to stop the Third Hokage.
This time, let alone the Third Hokage, Funan was stunned. For the first time, he felt that something was unexpected.
"Hiruzen, you have to calm down!" Homura said in a deep voice. "Consider the consequences!"
The Third Hokage looked at Koharu and Homura before turning his gaze towards Danzo.
"Danzo, is this what you think too?"
"Yes!"
"Why?!" The Third Hokage's words were filled with anger.
He felt betrayed. 'Danzo, you don’t support me! Obviously I support you so much!'
The Third Hokage was panting heavily, looking annoyed. It was evident that he had no intention of giving in easily. Danzo's objection made his anger burn even more intensely.
"Stop making trouble, Hiruzen!" Danzo's words became calmer and said: "I have a way to deal with Uchiha, don't use this method of mutual destruction."
At least, the Hokage faction couldn't be the first to attack.
"What method?"
Danzo looked at Funan, who asked curiously, and snorted coldly. 'It’s okay to say that I want to deal with you in front of you. Everyone is already at odds with each other. But do you also want to know my action plan?'
What a crazy dream!
"Tell me, come on, tell me! Good Danzo, good Danzo!"
Hiruzen and others looked at Funan and were speechless.
"Humph!" Facing the four people who rolled their eyes, Funan snorted and said: "Even if you don't tell me, I will know."
Danzo said coldly: "By the time you know it, it will be too late."
"Tell you, I'm angry!" Funan snorted. "Danzo, you are not good at all, I don't like you anymore."
Danzo gritted his teeth and shouted: "Uchiha Funan!"
"Forget it, forget it, 140 million ryo, can you get it today?" Funan waved his hand impatiently.
"This……" Koharu seemed hesitant.
Konoha's financial management was under her control. Taking out such a large sum of money suddenly meant stopping many important plans related to their clans.
"Give it to him!" Danzo said coldly. "Anyway, I can get it back sooner or later."
'Do you have the final say?' Koharu was on the verge of exploding. 'Is Uchiha your property? You said you'd get it back, so you'll get it back. What about previous losses? I haven't come to collect them from you yet!'
She looked towards Hiruzen.
The Third Hokage also hesitated.
"Hiruzen, trust me!"
Hearing Danzo say this, Hiruzen froze. Koharu and Homura were speechless.
The last thing they want to hear right now is Danzo saying: Trust me!
The more he says that, the less likely they are to believe him and the less safe they will feel.
"Well!" Finally, Hiruzen sighed and said: "Koharu, send 100 million ryo to Uchiha today."
"Only one hundred million ryo..." Funan was still a little dissatisfied.
However, the Konoha Corrupt Quartet glared at him at the same time, the power of their gaze was quite astonishing and the Mangekyo couldn't help but blink.
"Forget it, forget it!" Funan said dissatisfied. "Hiruzen, you are already old, so I will take pity on you."
The veins on Hiruzen's forehead were throbbing. "Thank you, Funan." Hiruzen's words sounded low and threatening, as if he was going to devour someone.
Even Danzo couldn't help but tremble.
Hiruzen was really angry, and if it wasn't for him and the other two, they probably would have fought today.
"You're welcome!" Funan showed a bright smile and said: "As a good young man in Konoha, helping the old, weak, sick and disabled is what I should do."
After saying that, Funan left.
However, the Konoha Corrupt Quartet felt a pain in their hearts, especially Hiruzen, who was so angry that he almost choked on the smoke and couldn't stop coughing.
A simple sentence from Funan made the tormented Konoha Corrupt Quartet begin to identify themselves unconsciously.
The old people were clear, none of them were young.
Weak…
Koharu and Homura said that they were very aware.
Disabled...
Danzo just wanted to swear.
Sick…
The three of them subconsciously looked at Hiruzen who was coughing.
Receiving three glances, Hiruzen understood immediately. Suddenly his face turned red with anger, and he roared: "Get out of here, all of you!"
The three of them were kicked out.
