Chapter 114: An Iconic Phrase
"Don't talk nonsense Funan, no one is going to attack anyone." Torifu interrupted hurriedly and said: "We are discussing what reward to give you. This time, you have made great contributions..."
"Oh, that!" Funan smiled and said: "Ask me about this, Acting Hokage, I don't need you to reward me with any money or reputation. You just drag Danzo out and chop him up, that will be the biggest reward for me."
Everyone was speechless.
"Okay, Funan, you go down and take a rest first." Torifu said with a smile: "After more than ten days of battle, you must be very tired..."
"No, I'm not tired at all. If you cut off Danzo's head, I'll run around Konoha a hundred times imitating a monkey's cry."
Torifu's mouth twitched.
Looking at Funan who was determined not to give up, Hiruzen finally spoke. "Tell me your conditions. If they are reasonable, I will accept them."
"Straight to the point!" Funan said with a smile: "Orochimaru has attacked the Konoha shinobi. As his master, it is your responsibility to capture or kill him."
Hiruzen was silent for a moment. Other people in the meeting room were silent too.
Dealing with a missing-nin is a good thing, especially when the target is a missing-nin like Orochimaru.
"Okay!" Aware of the expressions of the people around him, Hiruzen sighed softly and said: "As long as the acting Hokage agrees, I will send a team to hunt down Orochimaru."
"That's how it's done!" Funan smiled and said: "How long will it take to give a result?"
"One month!"
"Okay!" Funan laughed and left.
Torifu watched from the side. 'Damn, did I agree? You guys discussed it very well.'
Everyone left the meeting room quickly.
Torifu strode towards the office.
Inside the office, Funan was flirting with Torifu's new secretary.
She was a young girl from the Nara clan, extremely intelligent. She assisted Shikaku in handling some matters in the Hokage's office.
However, this little girl seemed to have a hard time dealing with someone like Funan. Her face was completely flushed, and she didn't even dare to look up.
"What are you doing, Funan?!" Torifu was in a state of dismay.
That secretary was his distant niece. Funan really had no limits.
Funan smiled and said: "Of course I'm doing the most important thing in life." As he spoke, he winked at the young secretary.
She, who had just raised her head, immediately lowered it again, although she couldn't help but sneak a glance at Funan.
"Kazu, come out for a moment." Torifu's eyebrows jumped wildly, and he snorted coldly. Then, looking at Funan with displeasure, he continued: "Tell me, what do you want?"
"You should know how dangerous the four clans of Sarutobi, and the others are, right?" Funan looked away from the secretary and looked at Torifu seriously.
Torifu's face darkened, and he said: "Funan, what do you want to say?"
"Join forces to get rid of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others!"
Funan said in a deep voice: "Acting Hokage, you must understand that this time the four clans of Hiruzen and the others have suffered great losses. Do you think they will sit back and do nothing? No, absolutely not."
"Whether it is Danzo or Hiruzen, they will not let it go."
"What do you think they will do?"
Torifu's face was gloomy. According to his calculations, the four clans had more than seven thousand shinobi. In the recent battles, they had lost more than two thousand.
That number was beyond Hiruzen's tolerance limit, so it was impossible to predict his actions.
The four clans were dangerous, but the Uchiha were not far behind. They could even be more dangerous.
"Impossible!" Torifu rejected the idea immediately.
"Acting Hokage, this is a good opportunity!" Funan frowned and said: "As long as we eliminate the four clans, Konoha will become peaceful from now on."
Torifu glanced at Funan. "Back off, Funan. I will never accept it!"
"You are too stubborn!"
Torifu's face also sank, and he said: "Funan, I am the acting Hokage!"
Funan turned and left, with only one sentence echoing in the office: "Akimichi Torifu, you will regret it."
“Fuck, do you really think I’m crazy?” Torifu cursed.
In the whole world, is there anyone more dangerous than the Uchiha? In the past, Torifu thought that Danzo was very dangerous. But compared to Funan, Danzo was insignificant.
“It can’t be…” Torifu muttered as he pondered. “If I can think of this, others can too. Can Funan not have thought of it? If he has, why keep going? What kind of conspiracy does he have in mind?” Torifu began to get restless.
Funan’s recent actions are getting bigger and bigger.
After pondering for a while, Torifu called Shikaku and his secretary to discuss the situation. However, they did not come to any conclusion. They could only stay alert and wait for Funan's next move.
…
"Huh, I finally said it, I was dying of suffocation!" Walking on the road, Funan let out a long breath.
Hiruzen, you will regret it. Danzo, I am the Hokage. Having never heard that iconic line before, Funan decided to tell it to Torifu himself.
“Torifu, you don’t take this seriously, do you?” Funan looked behind him and laughed softly. “Thinking too much will prevent you from sleeping and eating well. Maybe this will help the fat old man lose weight. Older people should not be so obese. It is bad for their health.”
Funan laughed softly. The Mangekyo Sharingan flashed in his eyes.
"Hmm!" Funan groaned. Blood slowly flowed from the corner of his eyes.
After collecting so many corpses and devouring so much vital energy, the Eye Technique fruit in his body is finally ripe.
...Can the Sharingan evolve to level 6 this time?
Funan quickened his pace. He wanted to find a quiet place and wait for the pupil power to evolve silently.
...
"What did you say?" Danzo stood up suddenly, looking excited. “Did you see Uchiha Funan with bleeding eyes?” Because of excitement, Danzo took a big step forward and grabbed the collar of the person reporting in front of him.
"Yes, yes..." The man said in a low voice: "I saw with my own eyes that Uchiha Funan's eyes began to bleed after leaving the office of the acting Hokage."
"Very good, very good!" Danzo looked at the person in front of him and was very satisfied. He said: “You are very good, but I don’t fully believe you. So please let me believe it.”
The informant was stunned. Before he could react, three shinobi surrounded him and immobilized him.
"You, what are you going to do?" The shinobi was shocked.
A shinobi said indifferently: “We’re only going to get the information we need directly from your mind.”
"No, no..." With a gasp, the informant's consciousness was replaced by a member of the Yamanaka clan.
"He did see Uchiha Funan's eyes bleeding."
Danzo frowned and said: “Why did he come to tell me this? According to his file, he is an ordinary shinobi. Would an ordinary shinobi worry about something like that?”
The shinobi of the Yamanaka clan shook his head and said: "He is a spy of Kumogakure."
"Oh I see." Danzo sneered and said: “Kumo still doesn't give up. Once I take care of the Uchiha, I’ll deal with them.”
Danzo has long hoped that Funan's eyes will be blinded. His previous calculations had failed, but this time he could not be wrong.
“I need to talk to Hiruzen.” Danzo leaned on his staff and walked over to see Hiruzen.
…
At this moment, Funan has returned to the Uchiha clan.
After seeing the fruit in his body, Funan laughed. A silver fruit rested on the branch of the God Tree. The powerful energy it contained was evident.
"Come on!" Funan said softly. The fruit dissolved into the air. A huge amount of eye power poured into Funan.
"Hmm!" Funan groaned as blood flowed from his eyes.
The surging pupil power was constantly merging into Funan's body. He could feel that his strength was constantly getting stronger.
"Haha, hahaha!" Funan laughed like a villain.
Funan felt that facing his previous self would not be difficult.
He then checked his skill level and noticed that his Sharingan level was now level 6.
He looked in the mirror. The Mangekyo has changed.
Funan's eyebrows jumped. This is his Mangekyo, but even he has to say that this pair of eyes looks very evil.
"By the way!" Funan suddenly clapped his hands and said: "I don't know what happened to the pigs I raised. Let's go and check them out."
Funan strode out of the Uchiha clan territory, heading to the Forest of Death. He has a secret base there, where the Evil God cultists are kept.
However, just after walking out of the Uchiha clan, Funan felt that someone was following him. 'Who is so brave?' Funan was stunned.
After thinking for a while, Funan sent out a signal. The Uchiha patrol team approached quickly.
"Minister!"
"Someone is following me in secret, get rid of him!" Funan waved his hand, not wanting to care about it at all. No matter who sent them, they are all the same.
As his status and reputation improved, all kinds of troubles came one after another. Funan had gotten used to many things and was too lazy to deal with them personally.
"Yes!"
The members of the Uchiha patrol team immediately separated and prepared to arrest those who secretly followed their minister.
Who knew that those people were very vigilant and left immediately after discovering the Uchiha patrol team.
