Chapter 144: Strategic Shenanigans
Chapter 144 - 144: Strategic ShenanigansAfter selecting two thousand five hundred shinobi, Funan set off immediately.
But...
This time, Funan was disappointed.
Onoki seemed to have foreseen it and led his men to retreat in advance.
When Funan arrived at the Iwagakure camp, the Iwa shinobi had already left.
"Damn Onoki! You deserve to not find a successor! You have a granddaughter named Kurotsuchi, right? Wait, I'll make her name Uchiha Kurotsuchi in the future!" Funan was so angry that he yelled directly.
"Where are the Hyuga clan members?"
"Here!" A Hyuga shinobi immediately rushed over and knelt on one knee in front of Funan.
"Where's Onoki?"
"We've
[Boom!]
A violent explosion sounded.
Three hours later, Kumogakure completed its retreat. Killer Bee and Yugito did not continue the battle and quickly retreated.
During the retreat, Yugito was violently attacked by Funan and subdued within seconds. Although Killer Bee quickly rescued her, she sensed that something was not right.
Yugito glared at Funan before leaving with Killer Bee.
Funan also deactivated his Susanoo and, seeing a Jonin leader approaching, asked: "What is the outcome of the battle?"
The Jonin leader replied cautiously: "The enemy was clearly prepared, there was almost no direct confrontation."
Funan looked in the direction the Raikage had gone and said: "Send out a scouting team, find out the whereabouts of the Iwagakure and Kumogakure troops as soon as possible."
"Yes!"
Funan understood that this battle was likely to come to an end.
Tsuchikage and Raikage tested his strength to a certain extent. At the same time, the three parties also had a real fight. Unless they wanted to spark the Fourth Great Shinobi War, everyone needed to calm down for a few days.
"The plan is going well!" Funan smiled slightly.
Now, Konoha was indisputably dominant.
But, Konoha would also become the target of all shinobi villages. Because Konoha was too strong.
Funan muttered, "Konoha's position is already unmatched. So we can begin the second phase of the plan. I told you, Konoha shinobi, that I will make you beg me to be your Hokage."
...
Konohagakure.
At this moment, Konoha was in a state of tension.
Torifu had begun to give up. For everything, he just complained and barely did anything useful. Although Hiruzen and the others were dissatisfied with this, they couldn't say much.
After news spread that the Konoha shinobi had been ambushed, the entire village was put on alert.
Fugaku immediately entrenched himself in the Uchiha clan and the entire Uchiha clan prepared for battle.
Torifu was so scared that he yelled: Medicine, medicine...
The Konoha Corrupt Quartet naturally also prepared for battle.
The atmosphere throughout the village was extremely tense. Many shinobi began requesting missions outside the village to avoid a possible civil war.
Fortunately, with the great victory of Funan, the atmosphere eased slightly.
From that moment on, Torifu firmly decided that no matter what Shikaku said, he would no longer be the acting Hokage.
Surprisingly, Shikaku did not object. Instead, he set about finding Tsunade, trying to convince her to return to Konoha and take up the role of the Fifth Hokage.
However, things couldn't end that easily!
Funan suffered a big loss, you said he would come back peacefully, eat, sleep, pick up girls...
No one would believe it!
The biggest possibility is that the first thing that bastard did after coming back was to burn down the homes of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.
Some people obviously knew it, so they were also nervous.
Among them, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not only nervous, but also very angry. Because he didn't betray Funan at all.
As much as he disliked the Uchiha, Funan was now a commander on the battlefield. If they betrayed him, what would happen to the shinobi army under his command?
Besides, if the border is broken, what will happen to Konoha?
Every time he thought of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes went dark. He wanted to swing a stick and smash open Danzo's head to see what was inside.
