Naruto: Uchiha’s Unserious Saga

Chapter 117: Unveiling Hidden Agendas



"Don't put everything on my father!" Kurenai looked coldly at Funan and said in an icy voice: "Isn't that your fault? Do you think I don't know that you fought with my father several times in secret? "Were you afraid of him?"

Funan was a little surprised. "How do you know?"

"Humph!" Kurenai snorted arrogantly and didn't answer at all.

In an accident, Kurenai discovered that Funan actually fought with her father in secret and was not at a disadvantage. She was stunned at the time.

How old was Uchiha Funan at the time? Twelve or thirteen years old!

After the shock came the excitement.

Kurenai thought that if Funan had such strength at this time, in a year or two, her father would no longer be a match for him, and no one would be able to stop them from being together.

But to her surprise, Funan retreated. He stopped looking for her.

"Oh, don't blame me!" Funan sighed and said: "You know well what the situation of the Uchiha clan was like back then."

"Even now it hasn't improved much. At that time, I was part of the new generation of the clan and had a lot of attention on me. I had no power, and we were in times of war. I was worried that if I died on the battlefield, wouldn't you become a widow?"

Funan looked at Kurenai with a strange expression. In the original story, didn't she end up a widow?

"Bah! Who would be a widow?" Kurenai blushed and glared at Funan angrily. "You say nice things, but tell me, what about Shirayu and the others? You have time to look for other women, but not for me?"

"Oh my, look, you misunderstood me again." Funan said hurriedly. "Those women are all from the Uchiha clan, there is no risk of involving them. You are different!"

Kurenai was about to hit him. This beast, after finding so many women, actually explained it to him so seriously.

"Then why did you find me today?"

"What do you think? Of course it's for..."

[Bang!]

The sake cup was finally thrown away.

Her face flushed with anger, Kurenai said: "Do you think I don't know what you're implying?"

Funan smiled as he took out another glass and refilled it. "I know you like wine. Do you recognize this one? It's a special wine from the Daimyo's residence of the Land of Lightning."

"Did he come from the Daimyo's residence? Really?"

"If you like wine so much, can't you recognize it?"

"Humph!" Kurenai snorted and drank it in small sips.

She recognized it. This wine was very special. As a lover of good wine, Kurenai was instantly enchanted.

Funan smiled and said: "I have prepared ten jars for you. Drink first. I will get more for you after you finish."

“Get more?” Kurenai raised her eyebrows.

The wine from the Daimyo's residence had special supply channels. It was difficult for outsiders to obtain it, and for Funan to be able to obtain ten jars was already surprising to Kurenai.

Needless to say, he must have used special methods.

"No need, a little wine, not worth the risk."

"Worth it!" Funan smiled slightly and said calmly: "My woman likes to drink, and she will have the wine she likes."

"If you like the wine of the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning, it is an honor for him. If he does not give it to us, I will destroy it!"

Kurenai took a deep breath. There he goes again! He began!

"I said, no need." Kurenai's voice, compared to before, already showed a clear softness. She did not refuse Funan's claim to be her man.

"Don't worry about that. Whenever you want to drink, come here. I assure you that you will never lack good wine." Funan waved his hand and said: "By the way, I have bought this bar, and it will serve you exclusively in the future."

"Are you crazy?" Kurenai glared at Funan. "If this got out, what would people think?"

With the attention Funan was receiving now, if she really did that, the whole of Konoha would be talking about them by tomorrow. At that point, who knows what they would say about the two of them.

"What does it matter?" Funan replied discontentedly. "You are a Jonin now, you have the ability to protect yourself. I think we can make our relationship public now, don't you agree?"

"Don't give me that!" Kurenai snorted. "What is the relationship between you and me?"

"You are my woman, it's that simple and clear."

"Bah, who is your woman!" Kurenai glared at Funan, sighed slightly, and said: "Give me some time."

Funan was too dominant. He didn't give Kurenai time to think and decided everything in an instant.

However, for Kurenai, this attitude was comforting and gave her a sense of security.

She is a talented kunoichi, and her father had provided her with a safe haven. She had always lived a carefree life. One day, her father died in battle, and Kurenai felt her world crumble.

She had a good impression of Funan before, and Funan at this moment gave her the sense of security that her father gave her, so she naturally wanted to be with him.

But her father had warned her not to have any ties with the Uchiha.

She was hesitating.

"By the way!" Funan suddenly looked serious and said: "There is one thing I want to apologize to you for."

"Hmm?" Kurenai raised her head, surprised.

"It's really about your father." Funan said with a serious expression. "I think I should take some responsibility for your father's death."

Kurenai's body immediately tensed. "What do you mean?"

Funan sighed and said, "On the night of the Nine-tailed Fox, I deliberately didn't take action."

"My idea at the time was very simple. Since Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others did not trust the Uchiha clan, I decided not to do anything to help.”

"As for the village..."

“There were two Kage-level shinobi, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Akimichi Torifu, plus Namikaze Minato with his Flying Thunder God technique. I thought the losses wouldn’t be great and the Nine-Tails would be sealed.”

“Who would have known…” Funan stared at Kurenai and said: “Who would have known that your father would die? If I had known, I would have intervened.”

Kurenai's tense body suddenly relaxed. A bitter smile appeared on her face. "That's all? Don't worry, I won't blame you. To be precise, it has nothing to do with you. Besides, your strength at that time shouldn't have reached the Kage level, right?"

"Reached." Funan said calmly. "At that time, I should have been able to fight with Sarutobi Hiruzen with all my strength."

"What I didn't expect was that Sarutobi Hiruzen only made one move that night, allowing the Nine-Tails to destroy the village."

“Akimichi Torifu intervened, but his strength was weaker than expected. Namikaze Minato was also held back by a mysterious man, and both he and Uzumaki Kushina were killed in combat.”

“It's absurd!” Funan smiled bitterly.

The strongest shinobi village was actually tossed around like this by a one-eyed Obito. If it wasn't intentional, Funan wouldn't believe it.

He even felt that the Nine-Tails was cooperating.

“Is there anything else you want to tell me?” Kurenai suddenly asked.

"Yes!" Funan looked at Kurenai seriously and said: "Even if you think I am trying to sow discord, I still want to tell you."

"Go ahead!" Kurenai looked very calm and said: "I am almost twenty years old. I have my own judgment."

"That's right!" Funan smiled and said: “Many kunoichi at your age are already mothers.”

Kurenai's expression didn't change.

Funan nodded slightly and said: “The Nine-Tails’ night was, without a doubt, a conspiracy. I don’t know exactly what role Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo played, but I’m sure they wanted Konoha to suffer great losses.”

“The Nine-Tails’ disaster was something they deliberately allowed.”

Kurenai clenched her fists. “Why?”

"Because of power." Funan said seriously. "After taking office, Namikaze Minato has gradually taken over power. Sarutobi Hiruzen is naturally unwilling. If Konoha suffers huge losses at that time, who do you think is responsible?"

Kurenai said without hesitation: “The Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato.”

"Yes." Funan continued: "I had people spread rumors that Minato's death was related to Sarutobi Hiruzen and others. It's not a lie, I did some careful research and actually found some clues. They may have secretly promoted it, or at least just sat back and watched."

Kurenai took a deep breath and then exhaled. “My father died in a power struggle?”

"Yes." Funan sighed and said: “Also, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others probably wanted to sacrifice some people from Konoha because more and more people were supporting Namikaze Minato. Their existence might have been an obstacle for Sarutobi Hiruzen to become Hokage again.”

Kurenai's expression became calmer and calmer. "My father is probably among them?"

“Yes."

Kurenai slowly closed her eyes. “I need a moment to calm down.”

Funan stood up and said: “I’m very good with sweet words, but you were almost my woman. I have feelings for you, and I wouldn’t use your father’s death to lie to you.”

Kurenai didn't say anything. Her mind filled with memories of the night of the Nine-Tails.
