Chapter 69: Funan vs. Obito

[Swish!]

Funan turned around fiercely, a shuriken appeared in his hand, and he swung it quickly.

A masked eye looked at him.

The shuriken missed any entity and passed across the masked man's face.

Uchiha Obito...

Funan's eyes were deep, and he quickly retreated, keeping distance from the other party.

"How brave you are to attack me, Uchiha Madara!" Funan sneered and said: "In that case, let's dance until death!"

Shadow Clone Technique!

[Bang!]

Four Funan's shadow clones appeared and began to form seals at the same time.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!"

[Boom!]

Countless crimson fireballs, like bullets, began to bombard everything around them.

Obito coldly watched Funan, neither dodging nor moving, staying in place and letting his opponent attack him.

"You have guts!" Funan's original body couldn't help but give a thumbs up. "Boy, keep it up. If you hide, you will be my grandson. Oh, you also have the Sharingan, maybe I, Uchiha Madara, will be your grandfather!"

Obito's eyes became increasingly gloomy. He is obviously Uchiha Madara!

This damn bastard was always talking about being Uchiha Madara, and he always did it in front of him.

However, Obito still didn't speak, his eyes locked on Funan.

He wanted to know how much chakra Funan had. Today, he definitely had to test each other's limits.

"Hehe!" Funan seemed to know what he was thinking and changed his tactics. Only one clone used the Phoenix Sage Fire Technique on Obito, while the other three clones stared at him.

Obito snorted disdainfully and said indifferently: "With such little ability, how dare you..." The rest of the words stuck in his throat. He stared blankly at the huge Susanoo.

"I originally wanted my clones to entertain you one by one, but you dare to make fun of me, Uchiha Madara!" Funan, inside the Susanoo, crossed his arms and smiled arrogantly. "Don't you know that I, Uchiha Madara, that's what I hate the most?"

Susanoo stared at Obito coldly.

A muscle in the corner of Obito's eye twitched.

"Dance on my hand, you bastard!" Funan shouted, the huge palm lunged out fiercely.

[Boom!]

There was a loud noise and a huge pit appeared.

Obito slowly walked out of Susanoo's palm, looking calm.

Funan stared at Obito with his Mangekyo. He would have to admit that the Kamui was really powerful. However, there is no invincible technique! Kamui also has a time limit.

[Boom!]

Another slap came down.

Obito used Kamui to avoid it again, maintaining his calm posture.

"Hehe!" Funan smiled. He began to attack non-stop, one slap after another.

Obito looked relaxed and carefree, as if he didn't care about anything, but as time passed, his expression changed.

"That's enough, Uchiha Funan!" Obito stood on Susanoo's palm and said coldly: "I'm not here to declare war."

"It doesn't matter if it's war or not, we will fight first!" Funan laughed and Susanoo continued to attack.

Finally, Obito couldn't hold on any longer, disappearing hundreds of meters away with several flashes. "Uchiha Funan, have you had enough? Do you really want to fight me to the death?" He shouted angrily, with an expression of surprise and fury.

Facing Susanoo, he really had no choice but to run for his life.

"Hehe!" Funan sneered and slowly raised his left hand.

A blood-red sphere appeared in Susanoo's palm, and the sphere was burning with liquid-like flames.

"Damn it!" Obito's pupils contracted violently. He was finally frightened, and his voice changed a bit, and he shouted: "Uchiha Funan, stop."

"What did you say? I can't hear you." Funan pricked up his ears, seemed to be listening, and then sighed helplessly. "I'm getting older, I'm getting older, I can't do it anymore, alas!"

[Swish!]

The huge blood-red ball flew towards Obito.

[Boom!]

A huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky. A huge wave spread in all directions.

Even Funan, using the Susanoo, was affected by the shock wave, being pushed back repeatedly. But, he was smiling.

I had wanted to try this trick for a long time. In fact, it was not bad at all, almost at the level of a Tailed Beast Ball. All he needed was to give it an impressive name.

[Drip! Drip! Drip!]

Drops of blood flowed down Funan's face. He was taken aback for a moment, smiled and wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, little one, not bad, you survived!" Funan looked at the embarrassed Obito with interest and said, "The time and space ninjutsu saved you. Otherwise, there would be nothing left of you."

All of Obito's clothes were covered with holes and the mask on his face was torn into pieces. "Funan, don't forget that there is still cooperation between you and me. Do you want to kill me?"

"Haha, do you still remember the cooperation?" Funan said lightly: "Then why did you attack me just now?"

"I, I was testing you!" Obito said angrily.

"What a coincidence!" Funan chuckled and said: "I was testing you just now."

Obito's body was trembling slightly, partly because of fear, and partly because of overuse of Kamui.

At that moment a series of presences approached. Although they were in the Forest of Death, they were still within Konoha's range.

Such a huge movement, as long as the people in Konoha are not dead, they will definitely notice it.

Funan looked at it and smiled: "It seems that our cooperation can only wait until next time." He was happy to work with Obito. Last time, he had obtained a list about ANBU members and Root from Obito.

Thanks to that, he was able to eliminate many troublesome people within the Uchiha Clan, allowing his 'Rumors Plan' to go smoothly.

In addition, he also wants to get the secret of Obito's body.

Obito snorted coldly and glared at Funan fiercely.

Funan also glared at Obito fiercely: "What? You're still not convinced? What I like most, Uchiha Madara, is that violent little personality of yours. If I defeat you, I'll feel quite accomplished."

Obito's mouth twitched, and he left quickly.

"Hmph!" Funan curled his lips and said: ""Next time, if you dare to attack me again. I will beat you up, you disrespectful brat towards elders." After thinking for a moment, he also left.

When the Konoha shinobi arrived, they only saw a huge crater. Fallen trees, broken rocks. The surrounding terrain had changed drastically.

"Oh my God!" A shinobi murmured: "What caused this? A natural disaster?"

The Third Hokage's expression darkened slightly. The complications seemed endless. How could such a fierce battle break out so close to Konoha?

Hiruzen was very irritable. He was about to give an order, but after seeing the shinobi present, he couldn't help but swallow it back. At this moment, Konoha's shinobi are clearly divided into four factions.

One faction was the Uchiha.

Another was the Hokage's.

The third was that of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans.

The rest were neutral factions that did not get involved.

Hiruzen's face looked horribly ugly. A village is actually divided into so many factions. Is this an attempt to divide the village? Everything is because of these selfish Uchiha. If it weren't for them, how could it be like this?

"The ANBU will stay behind to investigate, while others will step up patrols of the village. Don't give the enemy a chance." In the end, Hiruzen gave the order.

"Yes!" There was no problem with this order, and the shinobi chose to accept it.

Seeing this scene, Hiruzen felt distressed again. No, he wants to elect the fifth Hokage as soon as possible. His prestige has been hit to the limit and is not enough to support him to continue to be Hokage. With that in mind, after returning to the village, he headed straight to the Ino-Shika-Cho clans.

…

"Me, the acting Hokage?" Torifu pointed at his nose with a look of surprise on his face.

"Yes!" Hiruzen said solemnly: "You are the only one suitable."

"No, no, no!" Torifu shook his head and said: "I'm only a few years younger than you, how can I be Hokage? I'm too old, no way!"

'Damn, did you do it on purpose? This means that after the real Hokage takes control, I'll still have to go out!'

The corner of Hiruzen's mouth twitched and he said: "Torifu, you are indeed not young anymore, so I decided to recommend you to be the acting Hokage. Take some time and let's cultivate the real fifth generation Hokage together."

Torifu shook his head faster, and he said disdainfully: "I don't even want to be the real Hokage, much less an acting one! Who do you think I am? Anyway, I'm not doing it!"

Hiruzen took a deep breath and patiently persuaded the other party. Finally, when the Third Hokage's mouth was dry, Torifu finally nodded.

Hiruzen breathed a huge sigh of relief, and after discussing some details, he stood up and left.

"Remember..." Torifu said seriously to Hiruzen: "I will be the acting Hokage, I cannot take over permanently, or you will face me!"

Hiruzen: "..."

'Even if I die and have nowhere to be buried, I won't let you take over permanently.'

"Also..." Torifu said seriously again: "As Acting Hokage, I will work for ten years at most. I will not work any longer!"

Hiruzen: "..."

'Don't say ten years, if you can work for five years, I will take your last name.'

Finally, Hiruzen left the mansion with his hand on his heart. He always suspected that Torifu was conspiring with Funan.
