The members of the Uchiha patrol team returned empty-handed.
After hearing this result, Funan was stunned.
After thinking for a while, Funan arranged for the patrol team: "Strengthen your vigilance, our enemies may take action."
"Yes!" The members of the patrol team held their heads high and answered loudly.
Funan patted the leader on the shoulder and turned to leave. He was very casual, but the team leader was stunned.
"Captain!" The other team members were also envious.
Uchiha Funan is now the hero of the entire Uchiha. It can be said that the voices for Uchiha Funan to be the clan leader have never stopped.
...
[Swish!]
Funan moved quickly in the Forest of Death. He stopped on a big tree, frowned, and looked around. He felt like he was being monitored. "What's going on?"
Funan was sure that there was no one around, so how did the other party monitor him? He looked around.
After searching for a while, nothing was found.
Funan couldn't help but be a little stunned. What's going on? He suddenly thought of a ninjutsu, which only one person in Konoha knew.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Telescope Technique!
Funan trembled. That old pervert, he actually peeped at him, what did he want to do? Isn't that the obscene ninjutsu I used to spy on girls with? How could it be used on him? Could it be...
...
Danzo had sought out Hiruzen and told him the news he had received.
Hiruzen took out a crystal ball and, after quickly forming seals, Funan's image appeared in it.
Danzo's eyes were straight at that time. He subconsciously shrank his body and looked at Hiruzen strangely.
Hiruzen said expressionlessly: "Don't think too much, Danzo, I have specially developed this ninjutsu to deal with Funan."
Danzo complained crazily in his mind. He had heard before that Hiruzen had a technique for spying. At the time, he hadn't paid attention to it, confident that no one could spy on him.
What about now?
Funan, a possessor of the Mangekyo Sharingan, is unable to detect Hiruzen's spying.
As confident as he was, Danzo did not believe he had observational skills superior to those of a Mangekyo possessor.
What's more, looking at this situation, let alone the Sharingan, even the Byakugan may not be able to find Hiruzen's telescope technique.
Danzo hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice. "You're not spying on me too, are you?"
Hiruzen almost vomited a mouthful of old blood. He looked gloomy, glared at Danzo fiercely, and shouted: "What are you thinking about? Concentrate on dealing with Funan."
"Oh!" Danzo replied, though he suddenly realized something. Is Hiruzen changing the subject? What did that mean? Did he not want to answer? Did that mean he could spy on him at any time?
Immediately, Danzo was anxious.
"Wait a minute!" Danzo's voice was low, and his expression was very serious.
"What's wrong now?" Hiruzen looked annoyed.
Danzo said seriously: "Hiruzen, I want you to promise me something, that you won't spy on me."
Hiruzen looked at Danzo in astonishment. 'Damn it, I peeked at you? How much meat do you have on your body? Don't you know it?'
Hiruzen was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned his head to continue looking at Funan.
Danzo was restless. You don't talk, what does that mean? Are you guilty? How can this be?
Danzo exploded on the spot. "Hiruzen!" Danzo let out a low roar: "You must give me a promise today!"
Hiruzen took several deep breaths before calming down. "It's okay, I promise you. If I spied on you, let me..." He stopped abruptly. Because he suddenly remembered that he had actually spied on Danzo.
Right after learning the telescope technique, Hiruzen was very excited and spied on almost everyone he met.
Including Utatane Koharu.
It must be said that Koharu looked pretty good when she was young.
Hiruzen changed the subject and said: "I promise, if I ever spy on Shimura Danzo in the future, I won't have a peaceful death, okay?" He said it through gritted teeth, clearly very angry.
Danzo understood immediately. In the future? And the past?
Danzo's eyes shone with a hidden meaning.
Hiruzen felt uncomfortable with Danzo's eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "What? Is this not enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough!" Danzo nodded repeatedly, although no one knew what he was really thinking.
Anyway, it won't be a good thing!
Hiruzen was depressed. He couldn't explain that the telescope technique had its limitations, and he couldn't see what he wanted.
He turned his attention to Funan again but was left puzzled.
Where was he?
He immediately turned the telescope around but was surprised to find that he could not find Funan.
Immediately, Hiruzen looked at Danzo angrily.
"What are you looking at me for?" Danzo said dissatisfiedly. "What does this have to do with me?"
When saying this, Danzo felt a little guilty for some reason.
"Hmph!" Hiruzen put the crystal ball aside in anger.
The action was very careful. For fear of breaking the crystal ball. This is his treasure. After his wife died, he only had this little spiritual sustenance left.
Danzo frowned and said in a low voice: "Hiruzen, what do you think?"
"What do you mean by what I think?"
"Funan's Mangekyo is likely to be blind. We must take action!" Danzo was anxious.
"That's just what you say." Hiruzen said with a serious face: "Danzo, are you forgetting that this isn't the first time you've said that Uchiha Funan is going blind?"
"This time is different!" Danzo said hurriedly. "This time is different from the past. Funan has just experienced a war."
Hiruzen remained silent.
"Ah!" Hiruzen shook his head firmly and said: "Danzo, maybe Funan's eyes are about to go blind, but as long as he is not blind, he still has power, and we can't take risks." He interrupted Danzo, who was trying to speak, and said firmly: "I don't think Funan will consume his pupil power excessively for the village."
Danzo was silent. Judging others by his own experience, Danzo did not think Funan would make so many sacrifices for Konoha.
"Do you think this is another trap?" Danzo suddenly asked.
"That may not be the case." Hiruzen thought for a long time and said: "Maybe, there is indeed something wrong with Funan's eyes."
After another long silence, Hiruzen made a decision. "Since there may be problems with Funan's eyes, no, whether there is a problem or not, we can't let him sit idle."
"What do you mean?"
Hiruzen's expression became cold, and he said: "We'll make him keep fighting and wearing himself out. I can't believe his Mangekyo Sharingan can withstand such a strain indefinitely."
"Do you really think he will obey us?" Danzo thought Hiruzen's words were ridiculous.
"No!" Hiruzen sneered. "But for everything he does, we'll give him credit. What do you think?"
Danzo almost jumped up. "Are you crazy? Do you still want to make him the Hokage?"
"I'm very calm." Hiruzen took out his pipe, lit it slowly, and said: "The Uchiha have lost twelve Jonin, while we have lost fifteen hundred shinobi. Overall, we are at a disadvantage. Furthermore, Funan's exploits are too great, and the people's perception towards the Uchiha is changing."
"What do you mean by that?" Danzo insisted.
"I want to destroy Funan!" Hiruzen's words were no longer peaceful, and he said coldly: "Since Funan's progress cannot be stopped, we might as well give him a push and let him take bigger steps."
"Let him keep fighting, and one day, he will destroy his eyes."
"The same is true for Torifu. I don't think he can remain indifferent to the Uchiha's constant successes."
Danzo was silent and sighed. "It's risky. If we fail, we'll be handing the Hokage position over to the Uchiha."
Hiruzen said lightly: "We have no choice."
Danzo was still hesitant, but Hiruzen's firm gaze convinced him. Finally, he accepted Hiruzen's proposal, as he didn't have a better solution either.
…
Funan released his perception to the extreme.
He didn't think Hiruzen could keep an eye on him constantly.
And sure enough, after a while, Hiruzen looked away.
After making sure that the feeling of being watched disappeared, Funan began to move like lightning.
Funan stopped when he was almost at his secret base. The feeling of being stared at never appeared.
"Hiruzen, that surveillance technique is really disgusting." Funan frowned and thought deeply. He had to find a way to counter that technique, since no one could stand being constantly spied on.
Entering the base, he was immediately greeted by two members of the Uchiha clan.
"Long time no see, Tetsuhi, Komehi!" Funan greeted with a smile. "How are you? Did you miss me?"
Komehi said expressionlessly: "No."
Tetsuhi's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "Minister, I want to fight. I heard that you just had a big fight."
Funan chuckled and said: "The battle with Kumogakure was so cool. The Fourth Raikage lost his temper after being beaten by me."
The two brothers' eyes immediately flashed with fire.
Komehi immediately asked: "Minister, when will we fight Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others?"
"No hurry." Funan chuckled and said: "When you go into action, it will be the final battle."
