"Humph!" Danzo snorted, turned and walked away.
Homura looked at Koharu and asked: "What do you think Funan is doing?"
Koharu was surprised. "What do you mean?"
"I always feel..." Homura said hesitantly. "Through contact with this guy, we seem to have started to become less serious?"
After sighing Koharu said: "You mean he manipulated us with the Kotoamatsukami?"
Homura nodded and said: "Let's find some sensor-type shinobi to take a look. I always feel that something is wrong."
He took Koharu to look for a sensor type shinobi. After much fussing, naturally nothing was found. On the contrary, several shinobi looked at them with strange expressions.
They are idiots? In broad daylight, they suddenly appear and ask to be checked if they were under genjutsu?
The shinobi became nervous, thinking that the two Elders had been manipulated.
That would be a big problem!
After some simple inspection, they realized something was wrong. Although the chakra flow of the two people in front of them was very normal. But they were too weak.
If they remembered correctly, these two are also disciples of the Second Hokage. Although they are older, it is still surprising that they are so weak.
No wonder the two Elders never go to the battlefield!
"Are you satisfied now?" Koharu looked at Homura angrily and left.
The strange looks from the sensor-type shinobi left her furious.
Homura looked helpless. He really felt that something is wrong.
Could it be that it's not them who are affected, but Hiruzen and Danzo?
Thinking of this, Homura was frightened and hurriedly went to find Hiruzen.
…
That afternoon, an ANBU quietly came to the Uchiha clan, took out a scroll, and handed 100 million ryo to Funan.
Fugaku's eyes almost popped out of his head as he watched. In his mind, he only had one idea: let's get rich!
Fugaku rubbed his hands in excitement, and his eyes softened when he looked at Shisui.
"Thank you Shisui and Danzo!"
Several jonin on the side burst into laughter on the spot.
Is this still the evil-eyed Fugaku?
Shisui's expression turned grim.
Fugaku couldn't help but said: "I'm serious, one assassination of Shisui costs 100 million ryo. If Shisui is assassinated a few more times, Uchiha won't have to worry about his finances in the next ten years."
Shisui couldn't hold back any longer and said: "Why don't they kill you, clan leader?"
"Okay!" Fugaku has now completely become a money slave. Looking at the piles of money, he said: "I also have the Mangekyo, and I am the leader of the Uchiha clan."
"How about I act alone a few more times? Then let Funan go and bite. No, go blackmail them. I'm not asking for much, just 50 million ryo at a time."
The Uchiha jonin laughed even more.
Fugaku had also learned to accept things.
Funan led the Uchiha armored car on a rampage but gained the upper hand. This level is definitely better than him.
Funan smiled. "Everyone should be careful during this period of time. Don't act alone. If you take advantage several times in a row, the people of the Hokage faction will probably become impatient. Maybe they are holding back some bad moves."
"Don't worry!" Yashiro and the others laughed. "If the current situation continues, the Hokage and the others won't last long, so we all decided not to go anywhere for a while and just do our jobs honestly."
"Also, we will never act alone, no matter what the Hokage wants to do, we will not give them the chance."
"A very correct idea!" Funan was very satisfied.
The Uchiha had truly changed.
Before they only knew how to be tough, no matter who the opponent was, they always attacked. Now it was much better, they could find answers for themselves.
Funan looked at the Uchiha jonin with tears in his eyes: "Children, you have finally grown up!"
The smiles of the Uchiha jonin suddenly froze.
[Bang!]
The door was pushed open suddenly, and a figure walked in angrily.
"Daughter, what's wrong? Who bullied you?" Funan asked.
Shirayu's body stiffened suddenly, and he glared at Funan fiercely: "What did you call me?"
"The invincible and beautiful Miss Shirayu." Funan chose to answer from the bottom of his heart.
"Hmph!" Shirayu snorted heavily, looked at the Uchihas who were suppressing their laughter, and said: "Shimura Danzo has taken action!"
These words immediately shocked the Uchihas present, then they released an overwhelming killing intent.
"What did he do?" Funan asked curiously.
"It's the same old routine!" Shirayu said coldly. "As you mentioned before, Funan. He has begun to manipulate public opinion so that the people see us as enemies."
The Uchiha Jonin suddenly looked at each other and laughed. Funan had warned them a long time ago.
The Hokage faction would attack them in several ways, and one of the most direct was through defamation.
Making the Uchiha again scapegoats within the village, fomenting hostility towards them, and possibly inciting the Uchiha clan to act or the village to unite against the Uchiha.
Funan clapped his hands and said: "Well, since they have entered the scene, let's not be left behind. Let's do what we must do and let them see the power of the Uchiha."
"Don't worry!" Three Magatama appeared in Yashiro's eyes.
"I've long disliked some of the villagers, they act like the Uchiha should serve them. This time, I'll try my new genjutsu."
The other Uchihas also revealed their Sharingan.
"Be careful." Funan reminded. "If you are discovered, you will have changed from active to passive. You shouldn't make such a low-level mistake, right?"
"Of course. We will proceed carefully."
"Okay! Go!"
"Yes!" The jonin of the Uchiha clan shouted loudly and left immediately.
There were only Fugaku, Shirayu, Shisui and Funan in the original place.
"Is it starting again? What a bummer!" Fugaku muttered to himself.
"Uchiha has never been the proactive one!"
Surprisingly, the person who said this was actually Shisui.
Facing the stunned looks of several people, Shisui smiled bitterly, pointed at his eyes that were still bandaged, and said: "Even with this, how could I not learn my lesson? Am I an idiot?"
"That's true!" Fugaku nodded and said: "As long as he corrects himself, he will still be a good boy. The naughty boy in the past was just less aggressive!"
Shisui: "..."
Shirayu did not hold back and said bluntly. "Shisui, you used to be so careless. When the Uchiha jonin saw you, they all wanted to hit you. Unfortunately you were stronger otherwise they would have found you lying in a ditch one of these days."
Shisui went to find the medical-nin with a hurt look on his face. He wants to speed up his recovery! 'Danzo, I'm going to kill you!'
…
"Uchiha, aloof and arrogant, does not recognize his identity as a Konoha shinobi!"
"Uchiha Funan, for the sake of the mission, gave up his companions and violated the will of fire."
"Uchiha, prepare to ignite the war and seize power in the village."
Discussions gradually arose throughout the village and became more and more intense. Therefore, conflicts gradually began to point to Uchiha.
In particular, some people said that Uchiha was preparing to reignite the war and carry out an armed coup, which disgusted the villagers even more.
The Uchiha, already with a bad reputation, gradually became a target for everyone.
If the top executives don't stand up to explain, that means it's probably true!
Damn Uchiha!
Seeing this situation, Danzo smiled with satisfaction.
This is just the first step. Uchiha, don't worry, the second step will begin soon. You will definitely be finished!
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Funan had already made full preparations for this.
As long as Funan is not mentally ill, he will prepare for this situation and fight back.
An unprecedented storm of public opinion is about to hit.
…
Konoha, inside the tavern.
"Hahaha!"
A sturdy, middle-aged man with a headband that said 'oil' and long white hair was hugging two scantily dressed women while drinking non-stop. It was Jiraiya.
"How refreshing!" Jiraiya drank all the wine in one gulp, slammed the glass on the table and screamed.
"You have great stamina!" The two women laughed and poured another glass of wine for the man.
At the same time, they offered him a snack and said: "Don't just drink, eat something too!"
Jiraiya opened his mouth and ate the food in one bite. He let out a strange scream and kept moving his hands, making the two women squeal.
He was about to speak when suddenly, there was a sound of discussion in his ears.
"These damn Uchiha..."
The expression on Jiraiya's face became stiff, and his interest in drinking suddenly disappeared. Even the arms holding the two women were dropped.
"Master, what's wrong?" The two women looked at Jiraiya in confusion.
"Haha, it's nothing!" Jiraiya smiled slightly but sighed helplessly in his heart.
