Chapitre 81: Chapter 81: Shadows of Deception
"Minister!" Tetsuhi came to Funan's side and said in a deep voice: "Those shinobi are most likely from Kumogakure. Some fled, but most were killed."
Funan looked at the direction of the village and said: "Tetsuhi, prepare to die."
Tetsuhi was startled and said in astonishment: "Minister, have you decided to implement that plan?"
"Yes!"
"Understood."
Tetsuhi and Komehi looked at each other, then looked at the other Jonin, and said: "Everyone heard it, do it yourself, or should we do it?"
A Jonin said helplessly: "Better you, I don't like pain."
Before long, ten Uchiha bodies were lying there, including Komehi's.
The bodies were in poor condition, it looked like they had experienced an intense battle.
Tetsuhi and another Uchiha Jonin looked at the bodies of their loved ones, breathing heavily and with a look of complex emotions in their eyes.
Their chakra was also beginning to fluctuate. However, they failed to complete the final evolution.
Funan had been watching them, and when he saw this, he sighed in his heart.
The reason he left these two was because they had the best chance to advance.
"Okay, you can go, anyway it won't be long before you meet again."
"Yes!" Tetsuhi responded and then looked at Komehi's body before leaving with the other Uchiha Jonin.
As soon as they left, a large number of Konoha shinobi arrived.
"This is…" The leaders were obviously Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Fugaku.
They were shocked when they saw the bodies lying on the ground.
"What's going on here?"
Faced with Hiruzen's question, Funan ignored it and said calmly: "Leader Fugaku, take away the bodies of the clan members."
"Understood." Fugaku was also surprised.
"Hang on a minute." Danzo jumped out and shouted: "We haven't clarified things yet. How can the Uchiha act on their own?"
"Clear things up?" Funan sneered and fixed his gaze firmly on Hiruzen and said in a cold voice: "The person who took action disguised himself as Sunagakure but was actually Kumogakure. In addition, Orochimaru attacked us while we were fighting."
The expressions of those present changed again.
"Funan, what do you mean?" Torifu frowned and asked. He was very nervous, he was about to take office, and something like this happened.
Torifu knew very well that Uchiha, who had lost twelve Jonin, would lose nearly one-fifth of his strength. Will Hiruzen let this opportunity pass?
Could it be that Orochimaru was sent by him?
"What do I mean?" Funan sneered and said, "Orochimaru himself admitted that the reason why he was able to escape Konoha was thanks to Sarutobi Hiruzen's mercy!"
"What?" Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, and they looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with disbelief.
Hiruzen looked gloomy and didn't say a word.
His silence at this moment was an implicit confirmation.
Instantly, the expressions of the shinobi present changed. One after another looked at Hiruzen with angry glances.
"Okay!" Torifu stood up and said. "This matter is related to Kumogakure, we must be cautious. Everyone, let us return to the village first. No matter how big the matter is, we have to return to the village. I will give everyone an explanation."
"Yes!" The Konoha shinobi responded, and some came forward to help the Uchiha collect the bodies. They also collected the bodies of the Kumo shinobi.
During this process, some people couldn't help but scream.
"What's wrong?"
"Why are these corpses all mummified?"
"With Orochimaru involved, could it be a forbidden technique?"
"It's possible."
"Be careful with these corpses, too."
Soon, dozens of corpses were collected, and the bodies of the Uchiha were carried away by the Uchiha themselves.
Hiruzen and others didn't say anything. They just wanted to make sure that the Uchiha Jonin were really dead.
Regarding the bodies, although they wanted to have them, especially Danzo, who was looking at the Sharingan with his reddened eye, they did not dare to say anything when they saw the almost crazed expression of the Uchiha.
If this happened in the past, he would have dared to take away the Uchiha corpse by force even if it was in Fugaku's hands.
'Ugh, there are fewer and fewer Sharingan available.' Danzo muttered inwardly.
...
Hokage's office.
This time, the person sitting in the main seat is no longer Hiruzen. Torifu has replaced him.
When he heard the words Orochimaru from Funan's mouth, Hiruzen's heart sank.
He knew that he would never have the chance to sit in the Hokage's seat again.
He let Orochimaru go. This cannot stand the test, so he might as well admit it honestly.
The meeting begins.
The first person to speak was not Torifu, but Jiraiya.
He looked at Funan eagerly and said: "Funan, is it really Orochimaru?"
Funan said coldly: "Didn't you go to the place where the fighting happened? Can't you tell it was him? You two have been together day and night and slept in the same bed for so many years."
"This..." Jiraiya was speechless and then remained silent. But the looks of others became a little strange.
Funan looked at the Third Hokage with his cold eyes and said: "Sarutobi Hiruzen, you must give me an explanation."
"Hmph, what kind of explanation do you want?" Koharu snorted coldly, looking arrogant.
A deep voice sounded: "I also think, Hiruzen, you should give an explanation."
Koharu was surprised: "Torifu, you..."
Torifu said with an expressionless face: "As the acting Fifth Hokage, I must maintain impartiality. Is everyone in agreement?"
There was silence among the crowd.
Torifu continued: "I've always had my doubts about Orochimaru's escape. Sarutobi Hiruzen, are you admitting that now?"
Hiruzen lowered his head and remained silent.
"Because of Orochimaru, Konoha lost twelve Jonin this time, a total of twelve, and he was actually connected to Kumogakure! That was Kumogakure!"
In the last sentence, Torifu couldn't hide his anger, and his voice unconsciously rose.
"I agree that an explanation is needed for this." He said an unknown voice.
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but be speechless.
Hyuga Hiashi!
This man is considered invisible in Konoha.
Funan understood that it was probably Kumogakure who had stimulated him.
"Hiashi, you..."
"What?" Hiashi looked coldly at Koharu and said: "Are we required to swallow our anger again this time? Or who must be sacrificed?"
Koharu was speechless.
"Alright." Torifu said in a deep voice: "This matter really needs us to discuss it in detail." He looked at Funan and said: "Funan, what do you want?"
After a brief discussion with Shikaku, they both agreed that internal stability was paramount.
Funan pondered slightly and said: "I want a chakra weapon. It is said that the Second Hokage has a Thunder God Sword."
Hearing this, everyone looked like they had seen a ghost.
Including Fugaku, who almost chokes and looks at Funan in disbelief.
"What?" Funan's eyes turned cold, and he said: "Maybe a war will break out soon. As a frontline warrior, don't I deserve a chakra weapon? Or, you don't need me to go to the battlefield. "
Torifu was a little hesitant.
Danzo's voice was cold as he said: "Teacher's weapons will never be handed over to Uchiha."
"Then don't expect the Uchiha to go into battle!" Funan said decisively. "No matter what Kumogakure wants to do this time, no one from Uchiha will come out, you can figure it out yourself!"
"How dare you!" Danzo shouted coldly. "You Uchiha want to betray Konoha!"
"Fuck your grandfather!" Funan shouted angrily, appeared in front of Danzo, and punched him.
[Boom!]
No one thought that Funan would dare to take action at this time. Everyone was unprepared.
As a result, everyone saw Danzo being slapped against the wall like a rag. Before that, it bounced on the ground.
"Fu... Funan!" Torifu shouted angrily and said: "You dare attack someone in the Hokage's office?"
Hiruzen and others all surrounded Funan with angry expressions on their faces.
"Damn, you guys are pressuring me!" Funan yelled angrily: "I don't know who is behind this incident. I, Uchiha, lost twelve Jonin. Damn it! You want to start a war? I, Uchiha is here to accompany you!"
The Mangekyo appeared in Funan's eyes, and the blood-red skeleton surrounded Funan.
"Wait wait..."
Seeing that Funan was serious, some people were scared.
The momentum of Hiruzen and others is no longer so strong.
Torifu also stopped shouting.
Shikaku was the first to approach Funan to calm him down.
Fugaku and Shisui were also ready for battle. They still held flares in their hands and stood at the window. As long as they were launched, they believed that a large number of Uchiha shinobi would appear.
Let the civil war officially begin!
"Okay, okay!" Torifu looked at Danzo and said angrily. "The Uchiha are the real victims here. This time, the mistake was Hiruzen's. In this situation, how can you send the Uchiha to the outpost without having clarity about the situation?"
Hiruzen's expression turned grim, but he still remained silent.
