Chapter 86: The Poster Plot Unveiled

Hokage's office.

Torifu looked at the promotional picture in front of him, and the fat on his body was trembling.

Just now he gathered everyone together to discuss the matter between Funan and Pakura. This matter is quite a big deal and must be dealt with.

Concerns had also been expressed by Sunagakure envoys.

The tension was palpable in Konoha, and Torifu needed to understand the reason behind Funan's actions.

But Funan told him that the movie he was going to shoot was ready and that he wanted his advice.

Seeing that everyone was not there yet, Torifu nodded in agreement.

And so, he found himself faced with this thing.

[Konoha Harem: The Legend of Funan]

Then, five people appeared on the promotional picture.

Funan was in the middle, looking forward with a cold and arrogant face. His eyes were sharp, as if no one could stop him.

Behind him on the left were two people, standing in order, Hiruzen and Danzo. One of them had a kind face, and the other had a cold face.

Behind him on the right were two more people, one was Torifu, and the other was Fugaku.

What the hell is this?

The poster had a small line: Watch Uchiha Funan grow from an inexperienced youth to a towering tree that protects everyone from the wind and rain.

Torifu took a deep breath and left the promotional photo silently, pretending that he didn't see that thing.

He simply didn't have the energy to comment.

Especially since in the entire poster, Funan was clearly the protagonist. Funan's face had obviously been heavily edited.

The others seemed uglier just to make him look better, right?

And Fugaku, damn it, was standing behind him, but why was he looking at him with those fierce eyes?

Torifu's actions made Hiruzen and Danzo, who had just walked into the office, feel moved. They looked at each other and noticed a spark in each other's eyes.

What is Torifu hiding?

They both worried about the paper Torifu had placed on the table.

"Alright." Torifu's voice sounded tired. "You know why I called you here today. Funan, tell me, what's going on between you and Pakura?"

Funan immediately showed a tearful expression and said: "The village needs to intercede for me!"

"Can you speak clearly?"

"Yes!" Funan stood at attention and said: "Pakura was originally a candidate for the fourth generation Kazekage. It is said that she and the current Kazekage are not on good terms."

Shikaku asked: "Do you want to cause problems within Sunagakure?"

"Yes!" Funan said: "Uchiha is very strong. If Rasa knew that Pakura had an ambiguous relationship with the top leaders of Konoha, and this person is also from Uchiha, what would he think?"

"Humph!" Danzo snorted coldly and said: "Now we want Sunagakure to take care of Kumogakure."

Funan looked at Shikaku and said: "How is the negotiation going?"

"It's in progress." Shikaku hesitated and said: "The other party intends to work with us to put pressure on Kumogakure, or at least demand compensation from the other party."

"Then tell that Baki that if he agrees and is willing to pay a certain price, Pakura will not threaten Rasa."

"What?" The expressions of the people present changed.

"That Baki, is he Rasa's subordinate?"

"You want to help Rasa kill Pakura?"

Funan said calmly: "Pakura's existence threatens Rasa. He needs someone trustworthy around her, like Baki."

"As for killing Pakura... I'm just helping Rasa eliminate someone who threatens her position as Kazekage."

Torifu said in a deep voice: "Funan, tell me clearly, what exactly do you want to do?"

"During the Third Shinobi World War, the losses of Kumogakure were not particularly large." Funan said indifferently. "So, this time, Sunagakure and Konoha will join forces to cause some damage to Kumogakure. This is a way to bring peace to Konoha."

"For this reason, I hope you can work together to promote this matter."

Everyone present fell into silence. Go to the war?

Due to the unexpected death of the Third Raikage during the Third Shinobi World War, Kumogakure fell into a civil war over the Raikage's succession.

In the end, the current Raikage, who was both the representative of the fighting faction and the son of the Third Raikage, won, but in order to stabilize his position, he did not send troops again.

Of course, Kumogakure also benefited from Konoha during the Third Shinobi World War, which was one of the reasons why, even though Konoha won the war, the Third Hokage had to abdicate.

Some looked at the Third Hokage involuntarily.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression suddenly became gloomy. 'That's enough! You guys still cling to me!'

"Hey, don't look at the Third Hokage like that. It's not easy for him."

After hearing this from Funan, the people present only felt horrified. Their faces became expressionless as they sat, waiting for Funan's next words.

The few people who had grudges against Hiruzen were even more excited.

But... Funan didn't say anything.

This made the people present feel so uncomfortable. That's it? Is it over?

"Ahem!" Torifu coughed dryly and said: "Funan, do you have anything else to say? There are no outsiders here, just say it."

Hiruzen looked at him fiercely. 'You fat guy, you are just waiting for people to scold me, right?'

Torifu lowered his head and didn't look at him.

Funan looked up in surprise and said: "I have nothing else to say, do you have anything?"

"No, no!" Torifu waved his hand quickly and said: "Let's continue talking about what we were talking about before."

While speaking, he kept his gaze on Funan.

Funan was puzzled.

Torifu whispered: "Funan, if you have anything to say, you must say it. It's uncomfortable to hold it in your heart."

"Enough!" Hiruzen was shaking with anger.

"Actually, Uchiha Funan, if you really have something to say, you can say it."

These words created another awkward silence, with everyone staring in amazement. Because the person who said this was Danzo.

Hiruzen's eyes went dark and he almost fainted.

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was filled with a murderous aura, the people present silently closed their mouths and continued with the previous topic.

"A strange group of people." Funan muttered with a shrug.

They continued the previous topic.

Sarutobi Hiruzen strongly protested against Funan's proposal. He believed that Funan's actions might lead to a war.

However, Shimura Danzo agreed.

"Let's implement Funan's plan first!" After thinking about it, Torifu made a decision and said: "No matter what, provoking the conflict between Rasa and Pakura will not be bad for Konoha, and the affairs of Kumogakure can be put aside for the time being."

He looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said: "Sunagakure has been making a lot of moves recently. There have been several conflicts with Konoha at the border, and even more times when they were on missions. These guys are not at peace either!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded silently.

Several people sighed softly.

Whether it is Kumogakure or Sunagakure, if they can weaken the other side it would be the best, because once a war breaks out, it is estimated that Konoha will be under siege again.

The meeting came to an end.

Before leaving, Hiruzen and Danzo looked at the paper that Torifu placed face down on the table.

What exactly was written on it?

They had to get that role at any cost!

After everyone left, Torifu looked at Shikaku and said: "Do you believe what Funan just said?"

"No!" Shikaku said without hesitation. "But what he said does make sense. We can't completely deny him just because he has other purposes."

Torifu looked at the report and murmured: "What does Uchiha Funan want to do? Is he really willing to destroy his reputation for Konoha?"

Suddenly, Torifu asked curiously: "Could he be doing all this for Pakura?"

"For a woman?" Shikaku said with a smile. "Although Funan is indeed more... liberal regarding matters between men and women, at least he is the head of the Konoha Police Force."

"It won't be long before he becomes the head of the Uchiha clan. Will he lack women? And..." Shikaku didn't say the rest.

Torifu understood.

As a shinobi, how could he be so greedy for women?

What Funan really needed was to secure his position as the next Hokage.

He is carrying the fate of the entire Uchiha!

The Uchiha will not let him do whatever he wants.

Now, with his reputation damaged, competing for the position of Sixth Hokage would be a deadly problem for him.

...

In the Uchiha clan, rumors regarding Funan were also spreading.

Naka Shrine.

More than a dozen Jonin and several high-ranking officials sat down one after another.

Funan looked at Shirayu cautiously. Although he cared little about the opinions of others, offending Shirayu would cause him problems in bed.

Fortunately, Shirayu didn't say anything. She looked at him coldly and sat down steadily.

Funan breathed a sigh of relief. "Now the meeting officially begins. I want to organize the missions for the next few days."

Funan looked at an Elite Jonin Uchiha and said: "The Sarutobi clan will also send a lot of shinobi to join forces with Uchiha to go to the border with Sunagakure and keep an eye on Sunagakure. You must be careful on this trip."

"Yes!"

After that, Funan mobilized some people to go to the border where Kumogakure is located.

This time, Shisui led the team.

These actions clearly showed the imminent possibility of war.
