Bab 129: Chapter 129: When Ramen Leads to War
In the end, the incident with Funan went nowhere. What could they do? They couldn't take action against Funan just because he went to eat ramen near the Jinchuriki.
He had arrived long before the Jinchuriki to eat.
Hiruzen and Danzo didn't dare to force Torifu too much. The old fat man's condition looks very wrong. They didn't want to force him to do anything reckless.
However, the plan against Funan had to be advanced.
Furthermore, it was clear that Funan should be the commander-in-chief against Iwagakure this time, but he was still in Konoha, which was already a problem.
If something goes wrong on the front line, who will be responsible?
Danzo and Hiruzen looked at each other and understood each other's plan.
"Be careful!" Hiruzen said calmly. "Don't let others catch you."
Danzo was about to nod, but suddenly came to his senses and said coldly: "Why should I go? You are not Hokage now!"
"You..." Hiruzen said angrily: "You still care about these? Don't forget who our enemy is?"
"Why don't I care?" Danzo said coldly: "I don't forget who our enemy is, but I'll tell you a thousand times if necessary, you are no longer Hokage!"
Hiruzen was so angry that his veins were throbbing. Then he left furiously. 'You won't do it? Fine, I'll do it myself!'
'Damn you, Danzo, always throwing in my face that I'm no longer Hokage!'
'Danzo, you kid, wait for me too! One day, I will tell you again that I am the Hokage!'
...
Frontline Command.
Several reports were handed in.
Kakashi felt like his head was going to explode. He didn't understand why all this was falling on his shoulders. He was just an assistant.
He was only supposed to help sort things out or handle some simple matters. But now, even the important decisions were falling on him.
That bastard Funan even told him very seriously that this was to train his skills, as he would have to take on great responsibilities in the future.
Kakashi just wanted to kill someone. And besides, Funan wasn't worried that something would go wrong?
"Kakashi!" Guy walked into the headquarters with a serious face and said: "It's confirmed, Iwagakure will probably take action soon!"
"This is simply..." Kakashi was speechless and said: "What does this have to do with Konoha? Why would they want to attack us if we haven't done anything to them?"
Recent reports, along with some messages from hidden spies, indicated that Iwagakure was preparing an offensive against Konoha.
Upon receiving this news, Kakashi cursed loudly.
"Have you notified Funan?"
"I have notified him, but if he wants to come here, it will be a bit..." Guy looked embarrassed.
"Ah!" Kakashi was exasperated. "Is that bastard happy now?"
He knew that if a war broke out, Hiruzen and the others would not miss the opportunity to attack Funan. As the commander-in-chief of the front line, he was not there when the war broke out.
Based on this alone, Funan is doomed.
Of course, with the power of Uchiha and Funan's identity, he will not die, but he will definitely pay a huge price.
"Huh?" Kakashi was suddenly startled, and then his whole body was cold.
If he could think of this, then couldn't Hiruzen and the others? Could it be that this war...
Definitely not!
How could Hiruzen and the others start a war just to face the Uchiha?
How many people will die? Don't they, who came out of the Ninja World War, know this?
Especially now, when Konoha had just had a major battle with Kumogakure, with significant losses...
Significant losses?
This may not be correct.
Most of the shinobi who died were from the Sarutobi clan, and were not listed in Konoha's official shinobi registry, they were extra personnel.
So, on the surface, Konoha's shinobi suffered almost no losses.
Kakashi shook his head vigorously and said: "Call all the Jonin to discuss this."
Unsurprisingly, the Jonin expressed their fury towards Iwagakure and declared that if Iwagakure wanted war, they would not back down.
At the same time, the Konoha Jonin also expressed their strong discontent that Funan was not present.
At this, the shinobi of the Uchiha clan remained expressionless and did not comment.
"Okay!" Kakashi said in a deep voice: "Even though Commander Funan is not here, we must remain calm. Besides, with Funan's abilities, I don't think he will make such a fatal mistake."
"Everyone, please work hard with me."
The jonin looked at each other and reluctantly agreed.
"What shall we do with the others?" A jonin asked helplessly. "If word gets out that Commander Funan is not here, the troops will be upset."
Kakashi paused. This is also his biggest headache.
"Hide it!" Kakashi said coldly: "When you really can't hide it, just tell the public that Commander Funan is on a mission."
"That's the only way!"
The Jonin were also resigned.
What happened next left Kakashi frozen.
Because the news that Funan was not at the front line and stayed in the village spread throughout the Konoha shinobi army in just one day.
Morale plummeted! Doubts were constant.
'Damn bastards!' Kakashi almost cursed.
This was the work of Hiruzen and his people! Only the former Hokage had the ability to spread a piece of news to the entire Konoha Shinobi Army in an instant.
Kakashi was furious. He couldn't suppress it even if he wanted to.
Damn it! For his own selfishness, he actually did such a thing!
"Deputy Commander, what should we do now?" A Jonin hurriedly approached.
"What should we do?" Kakashi sneered and said: "Ask them what it means to be a shinobi. If the commander is not there, will everyone run away? Besides, the commander is on a mission, even if he is not there, the shinobi must fulfill their duty."
"This..."
"Shinobi should know how to obey orders!"
"Yes!" The jonin responded and left quickly.
"Kakashi, is this okay?" Guy smiled bitterly and said: "If Funan comes..."
Kakashi's attitude was undermining Funan's authority.
"I don't care about him so much. When he stayed in the village, he should have thought that this day would come." Kakashi snorted and said: "Let them all go to hell, it would be better that way!"
He looked up and looked in the direction of Iwagakure. Even if a war broke out, he was not afraid.
The only thing he was worried about was Onoki!
If Onoki appeared, who could stop him?
If Onoki were to break loose, the damage to Konoha's shinobi would be devastating.
She looked at Guy with a hesitant expression.
But Guy grinned, raised his thumb, and said loudly: "Don't worry, if Onoki appears, I will stop him. This is the time to burn my youth!"
Kakashi nodded with a heavy heart.
"Funan, can you make it on time?"
…
Iwagakure.
Onoki stared at the map with a gloomy face.
A Jonin on the side said bitterly: "Tsuchikage-sama, do you really want to fight this battle?"
Onoki said gloomily: "It's been proven that Roshi's disappearance is related to Konoha. Why shouldn't he fight? It's said that Funan isn't on the front lines right now. It's the perfect time to destroy Konoha's forces and besides..."
Onoki smiled sarcastically and said: "Isn't this what Konoha expects?"
On the sand table, Konoha's shinobi were about to be surrounded by them.
Kakashi, as the temporary commander-in-chief, still knew nothing.
This was enough to explain too many problems.
At least, this means that Konoha's intelligence was leaked very seriously.
Onoki took a deep breath, visibly moved.
Kumogakure and Konoha had just fought. If they could eliminate Konoha's shinobi, Konoha and Kumogakure's recovery period from the Third Great Shinobi War until now would be null.
The overall strength of Iwagakure will rise instantly.
Because...
Onoki looked at another sand table.
There, was the front line with Kumogakure.
There were also a large number of Iwagakure shinobi heading to that location.
Onoki decided to start a war on two fronts, and in one go, he would defeat the vanguard forces of Konoha and Kumogakure!
By then, Iwagakure will become the first shinobi village.
…
The same day.
Iwagakure launched an offensive against Konoha and Kumogakure.
They had received news that Uchiha Funan was heading to the battlefield.
They had to start the war and win it before he arrived.
Iwagakure did not have as many high-level fighters as other villages, but in terms of the number of shinobi, they even surpassed Konoha.
They are especially good at combination ninjutsu.
The Konoha shinobi, who had prepared in advance, quickly organized an effective defense.
Although the Iwa shinobi attacked with fury, Konoha stood firm.
"Fire Release..."
Hundreds of shinobi from the Uchiha clan stood in the front row, forming seals with their hands and launching the same ninjutsu.
"...Great Fireball Technique!"
[Boom!!!]
The fireballs combined into an even larger and more powerful one, impacting the Iwa shinobi.
With just one move, hundreds of Iwa shinobi were knocked out.
The morale of the Konoha shinobi immediately rose.
...
"Damn Uchihas, I want you dead!"
On the Iwagakure side, Onoki cursed fiercely, formed seals with his hands, and quickly rose into the air.
"A shinobi is flying!" Someone exclaimed.
Suddenly, countless eyes focused on Onoki.
"These guys!" Onoki's heart sank.
Clearly, the enemies were prepared to face a flying shinobi like him.
"Attack!" Kakashi immediately gave the order.
[Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!]
Kunai and shuriken with explosive tags, along with several long-range ninjutsu, flew towards Onoki.
"Do you think this will help?" Onoki sneered, dodged slightly, and continued to fly upwards.
