Torifu looked at the Jonin's expressions and said slowly: "Kumogakure arbitrarily mobilized shinobi at Konoha's borders and even attacked our sentinel posts."
"Uchiha sacrificed twelve Jonin for this, and the head of the Konoha Police Force, Uchiha Funan, was injured. This time Kumogakure has gone too far, and we cannot allow this to continue."
At this point, the meaning of the acting Hokage has been expressed quite clearly.
"We must fight!" A jonin shouted.
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
Under the leadership of several Jonin, the slogans gradually became unified.
Torifu nodded silently and said: "In this case, then..."
He slowly turned his gaze to each of the Jonin, and finally stopped on Funan.
"Leave it to me!" Funan jumped off the table.
Many people almost laughed. They were so emotional that they forgot that Funan was still standing on the table.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Torifu nodded with satisfaction.
His original intention was to separate Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Funan.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to fight this battle, so it was natural to leave it to Uchiha Funan.
Other Jonin nodded silently when they saw that it was Funan.
When it came to leading in battle, Funan had no problems at all. He was even more trustworthy than the Third Hokage in that area.
Funan stood up and said in a deep voice: "There are 5,000 shinobi in Kumogakure, and my Konoha only needs 3,000 shinobi. Besides..."
He named a few more shinobi.
Including Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy!
Hiruzen opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to object, but he didn't say it in the end.
After Funan finished speaking, Torifu stood up.
Funan just named some civilian shinobi. Although Kakashi is not a civilian shinobi, there are not many people in the Hatake clan.
After the civilian shinobi were selected, it was the turn of the shinobi clans.
Torifu said in a deep voice: "This is an important event for all of Konoha. Do not let your personal interests interfere. The Ino-Shika-Cho clans will send fifteen Jonin for this battle!"
Everyone was amazed.
Although the Ino-Shika-Cho clans are famous clans in Konoha, no matter how famous they are, there is still a big gap between them and the ancient clans like Uchiha and Hyuga. Fifteen Jonin is almost all they can mobilize.
"The Inuzuka clan, send three Jonin!"
"The Aburame clan sends three Jonin!"
…
Soon, nearly a hundred Jonin were ready.
The Hyuga clan contributed the most, with a total of fifteen.
Hyuga Hiashi even went out in person, with an unprecedented fighting spirit.
Hiruzen's eyes twitched. He always felt like he was being watched from time to time.
However, Torifu felt relieved. After taking office, his first battle involved hundreds of Jonin, led by Funan. There was no way to fail.
A smile spread across his plump face.
"Funan, I trust you."
"Acting Hokage, don't worry!" Funan waved his hand determinedly. "This time, I will definitely beat the shit out of Kumogakure."
Torifu's smile froze. Can you at least consider the occasion before swearing?
"Ah!" Torifu sighed, looked at Pakura, and said: "What does Sunagakure say?"
Pakura and Baki looked at each other and discussed briefly.
Pakura asked: "When will Konoha take action?"
Funan responded: "I will set off in three hours!"
"As soon?" Pakura exclaimed, hesitantly said: "Sunagakure still needs some time."
Just notifying Sunagakure would take quite some time, and it was unknown if Rasa would get in the way.
"No problem." Funan waved his hand and said: "Beautiful Miss Pakura, you are enough to replace thirty or fifty Jonin."
Pakura was startled again and said: "You mean... I go alone?"
"Not enough?" Funan asked back.
Many Jonin rolled their eyes. She alone can fight against thirty or fifty jonin?
"This..." Pakura was still a little hesitant.
"Then it's decided!" Funan was eager to go to the battlefield.
He was Blood Flame Funan, who made Kirigakure cry for their parents last time, this time, he would make Kumogakure kneel down and beg for mercy!
Especially the fruit, who knows how many times it can be upgraded this time! Could it be that he will bring the Eternal Mangekyo this time?
Immediately, he stood up and said: "Go back and get ready, meet at the village gate in two hours, disperse!"
"Yes!"
The selected Jonin quickly dispersed.
In the blink of an eye, most of the people in the conference room were gone.
Torifu stood up and said: "See you in the office!"
"Okay!"
Several senior executives went to the Hokage's office again.
As soon as Funan entered the office, Hiruzen had a gloomy face.
"What's wrong?" Funan asked curiously. "Are you constipated? Your face seems tense."
Hiruzen's veins jumped, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Uchiha Funan, you started a war!"
"Get out of here!" Funan couldn't help it and started cursing, saying: "Kumogakure is already at our door, and you still think like that? What do you want? Sacrifice yourself so that Kumogakure retreats? Will you do it?"
Hiruzen was silent.
Funan said coldly: "When sacrificing others, you are justified and keep talking about Konoha, but when it's your turn, you always step back."
"It was like this when the second generation died, and it was still like this when the fourth generation died."
Funan looked at Danzo and said coldly: "And you're even worse."
"Why are you so shameless?"
"Uchiha Funan! Don't humiliate me!" Hiruzen said coldly: "If it's really my turn, I will never be stingy with my life. I am not afraid of sacrifice either!"
"Then let me see if you die!"
Hiruzen was almost angry to death: "You..."
"Ahem! Stop, shut up!" Torifu interrupted quickly, looking at Funan with a smile.
"This battle is inevitable. Let us collaborate. Konoha is our home and our life!" He fixed his eyes on Hiruzen and said: "Hiruzen, how many shinobi can your four clans mobilize?"
Hiruzen said calmly: "The Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane and Mitokado clans can mobilize a total of 2,000 shinobi."
Torifu thought for a moment and said slowly: "3,000, you must mobilize 3,000 shinobi for me, among which, select 1,500 elites to follow Funan to the battlefield, and the remaining 1,500 will be used as a reserve to support the battlefield."
The office suddenly became quiet.
Hiruzen puffed on his cigarette.
Danzo had a gloomy face.
Koharu and Homura were also silent.
Huh?
Koharu, Homura, when did you two come?
Torifu's eyes were full of surprise.
After a long time.
Hiruzen asked slowly: "How many shinobi will Uchiha send out?"
Funan said without hesitation: "Uchiha will send out 300 elites this time."
Hiruzen's hand trembled. Not too few, but too many.
The shinobi of the Uchiha clan are different from other shinobi. Most of them can fight one against two. This one against two is still shinobi of the same level. It should be known that the Uchiha clan has few genin, most of them were chunin.
After thinking for a while, Hiruzen finally said: "I will personally select a thousand of the best shinobi from our four clans, and they will be led by Shinnosuke."
Funan showed a sarcastic smile.
Torifu also instantly understood what Hiruzen meant.
In the final analysis, he still didn't want to expose the ninjas of his clan.
Four unknown small shinobi clans are now mobilizing shinobi in thousands. Who can bear it?
At the same time, take some military merits for Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
"Okay!" Funan achieved his goal, stood up, and said: "I will leave in a while, prepare the supplies for me."
"Don't worry about that!" Torifu said affirmatively: "I will let Shikaku watch the whole process. If there is any problem with the supplies, I will kill people!"
In the last sentence, the fat man did not hide his murderous intention.
Funan nodded and strode out.
The whole Konoha began to operate at high speed.
The war is coming.
Through propaganda, the villagers of Konoha knew that Kumogakure attacked the outposts outside Konoha with the intention of threatening the entire Konoha. This time, Konoha will no longer choose to endure, they will fight back!
For the safety of the village!
To avenge his companions!
As the propaganda continued, Funan was already outside the gates of Konoha. He looked around and saw that all the Jonin had gathered.
The normal shinobi were rushing over there.
Kakashi came forward to report that in a maximum of twenty minutes they would be ready to leave.
"Prepare to leave!"
"Now?" Shinnosuke also came to Funan's side and was startled when he heard the words. He and Kakashi will serve as Funan's assistants and follow him into battle.
"Yes!" Funan looked at the two of them and said: "One of you will stay here with the low-level shinobi and advance. I will take the Jonin and advance."
"This..."
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm the commander-in-chief!" Funan said coldly: "I'll tell you in advance, if you don't obey my orders, I will kill you directly. I don't care who you are, so if you regret it, you can quit now."
This sentence is not only directed at Kakashi and Shinnosuke, but also at all the Jonin.
Feeling the cold murderous aura, the Jonin nodded silently.
At that time, no one could retreat.
Furthermore, on the battlefield, following the commander-in-chief's orders was a matter of course.
Kakashi looked at Funan with a strange look.
This guy is really strange. He knows a lot of things but is usually not serious.
However, he also has this very cold and ruthless side.
For Kakashi, Funan's greatest characteristic was his authoritarianism.
Maybe not even Hiruzen and the others had noticed it, but even when he wasn't serious, Uchiha Funan had unquestionable authority.
