Chapter 125: Betrayal and Barriers

Torifu gasped and gritted his teeth and said, "The Ino-Shika-Cho clans will send enough people to help you. I will also recruit some people from other shinobi clans in the village to help you. I won't let you lack people. Is there a problem with that?"

"Yes!" Funan raised his hand and said: "I need a deputy."

"Deputy? Who do you want?"

"I was thinking about the talented Danzo…"

[Bang!]

A chair was smashed hard at the position where Funan was.

Funan used the Body Flicker Technique to quickly leave.

Torifu had a ferocious face and murmured: "I'm not angry, I'm not angry, haha, how can I be angry? Haha, I'm definitely not angry!"

"Am I crazy to be angry with Uchiha Funan? Hahaha!"

Kazu looked at Torifu with horror.

It's over!

The acting Hokage is in trouble.

…

The village, which had just calmed down, began to show a little uneasiness again.

Iwagakure's actions were unexpectedly large.

Not only were they chasing Akatsuki members throughout the shinobi world, but they had also gathered a large number of shinobi at the border, making the neighboring villages feel uneasy.

Funan didn't care at all about this.

Even though Onoki is very eager for his disciple, how many people who can become Kage will act recklessly?

Also, if they really start the war, they will first face off against Kumogakure.

Funan then ordered Kakashi to lead two thousand shinobi to the border of Iwagakure, and he secretly stayed in the village.

Although Funan was said to have secretly stayed in the village, the higher-ups knew about it. However, they preferred to turn a blind eye.

Funan had just returned and was immediately sent to the front. Do you really think Funan is so easy to deal with?

…

Funan deactivated the Mangekyo and looked at the dozens of people in front of him with a smile on his lips.

It's done!

From today on, these dozens of shinobi belong to him completely.

"Funan-sama!"

Dozens of shinobi knelt on one knee in front of Funan.

"Good!" Funan said with a smile. "I want you to research and develop a new type of barrier. It must be placed within the Uchiha clan's territory and have multiple layers of protection. Can you do it?"

"Yes!"

These shinobi were the members of the barrier team that Funan had previously requested from Hiruzen.

Funan was so busy that he had very little time to use his Mangekyo technique on them.

Fortunately, after adding up the scattered time, the Mangekyo technique finally managed to change their will and make them loyal to him.

Although it is just a barrier team, the people here are really diverse.

There are people from Hiruzen and people from Danzo. There are also people from Koharu. Continue to dig deeper, and there is actually one person from the Nara clan.

Shikaku, that bastard, said nice things, but in fact he is also a master who is unwilling to be ordinary.

"Go!"

"Yes!"

Shirayu led the people of the barrier class away.

A graceful figure came to Funan and snuggled into his arms.

"The barrier teams are really useful. Although they are not high-ranking, these shinobi are more valuable than five Jonin." The woman said, playing with her purple hair.

Funan laughed and hugged her. "You are also valuable."

"Get out!" The woman said with dissatisfaction.

"By the way, Yugao, have Hiruzen and Danzo contacted you recently?"

"No!" Uzuki Yugao sighed and said: "It seems that I was abandoned by them just like the barrier team. Danzo and Hiruzen are both suspicious by nature. It is not easy for people who have disappeared to be re-employed after returning."

Funan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal?"

"Yes!"

"Forget it!" Funan shook his head. He was originally considering whether to let Uzuki Yugao become a spy like Uchiha Itachi.

He has a lot of information to send to them. Now it is naturally impossible.

How could Funan be willing to sacrifice such a beautiful person.

After the two tangled for a while, Funan calculated the time and got up to go to the Forest of Death again.

Onoki's nonsense disrupted many people's plans.

Including Funan!

He thought that with Itachi as a 'traitor', the other party would definitely take action on his way back from Sunagakure. He could also deal with some of Hiruzen's lackeys. Who knew that the other party did nothing.

In that case, he will give the other party more opportunities. He does not believe that Hiruzen will not take action.

…

"What did you say? Itachi!" Hiruzen and Danzo both opened their eyes wide and stared at Itachi who was kneeling on one knee.

"The Death Forest may contain the secret of Funan's strength!"

This news carried considerable weight.

Hiruzen and Danzo almost jumped up from their chairs.

Uchiha Funan's strength is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Even if Hiruzen and Danzo disliked him and wanted to kill him quickly, they still had to admit this.

They have always been curious about why Funan is so powerful.

"Hiruzen, we have to act!"

"Calm down, Danzo." Hiruzen said in a low voice. "Do you know how big the Death Forest is? Even if we know there is a problem there, how can we find Funan's secret? Doesn't Uchiha Funan have any defense?"

Danzo instantly looked at Itachi.

"Uchiha Itachi, can you find Funan's secret base?"

"It will not be easy." Itachi lowered his head and said: "Funan has always been suspicious of me and Shisui. This time, it was not easy for me to find out Funan's secret. If I continue to dig deeper, I am worried that Funan will find out."

Looking at the expressions of the two, Itachi added: "Funan is just suspicious of me now, and he is not sure."

After some thought, Hiruzen said in a serious tone: "So, Itachi, you have to protect yourself, and at the same time, collect as much information about Funan as possible."

"Yes!" Itachi said in a deep voice. "Everything is for Konoha."

Damn!

Every time they heard Itachi say this, they always felt very uncomfortable.

But the two of them still nodded, because it was not for Konoha? If it was not for Konoha, could it be for the Sarutobi clan?

Hiruzen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Itachi, you are a person with the will of fire, and you have the thinking of a Hokage. I believe that if we join hands, we will definitely bring happiness to everyone, peace to the village, and the shinobi world."

Itachi's eyes were fiery, and his body was shaking with excitement.

Hiruzen was very satisfied.

He didn't know that Itachi, who had just walked out of the room, spat hard on the ground. '...Damn, I almost vomited!'

Recently, Itachi often sent information to Hiruzen.

Some were useful, some not so much. Some were important, some were unimportant. As long as it's information, then send it.

These information led Hiruzen and others to pay more and more attention to Itachi. Originally, they still had some doubts about Itachi, but now, they have a deep trust in him.

A lot of information is really precious.

After getting that information, they will have a way to target Uchiha Funan.

Too much information dazzled them, and they did not realize that even if they got this information, it would still be useless when they faced Funan.

In the face of absolute power, the role of information is infinitely weakened.

Itachi also expressed his concerns about the leakage of this information.

However, Funan only said one sentence: "I don't worry about my personal information being leaked at all. If they know everything, so what, what can they do?"

"If I wasn't worried that they would fight to the death and attack our ordinary people, I would have killed them long ago."

Under this premise, all kinds of information about Funan were sent to Hiruzen and others by Itachi.

Moreover, not all of this information is true, some of it is false. Eighty percent is true, twenty percent is false.

Hiruzen and his men were so satisfied with the information.

Perhaps only Danzo still has some suspicion about Itachi.

The reason is that Danzo does not trust anyone.

…

Iwagakure.

Onoki has a gloomy face.

The person sitting in front of him was trembling with fear.

In Iwagakure, although there are voices of opposition, most of the time, Onoki represents absolute authority.

"Have you found him?" Onoki's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"No not yet."

[Bang!]

A loud slap resounded as it hit the table, it wasn't very loud, but it made those present tremble.

"When do you plan to find him? Ah!" Onoki roared in anger.

"Tsuchikage-sama!" A burly shinobi walked in, saying with resignation, "Those individuals even managed to capture Roshi, and you allow them to…?"

Onoki did not speak. The reason why he was so angry was not entirely because Deidara was abducted, there was another reason.

Roshi, the Four-Tails' Jinchuriki, had been captured!

That was the Jinchuriki of Iwagakure.

Although he was in an anti-Onoki position.

"Why?" Onoki said in a low voice. "Why would they want to kidnap Roshi? Is it because of the Tailed Beast? Could it be related to other villages?"

No one could answer him.

Even the tall fat man, Kitsuchi.
