Naruto World: Acquiring the Dung Fruit and Joining the Second War - Chapter 109
Chapter 109: Leaked
“Careless!”
Wiping his face, Chiba felt a bit embarrassed. He had forgotten to redirect the chicken’s beak properly, resulting in chicken droppings on his face.
“Fortunately, no one saw that.”
Relieved, Chiba turned around.
Chiba: “???”
Aburame Jingmei: “…
Hatake Sakumo: “…
At that moment, Shizumi and Sakumo exchanged peculiar glances as they observed the paralyzed pheasant and Chiba.
Looking at these two with wide eyes, Chiba wished he could find a hole to crawl into. When did these two arrive? He had no idea.
“Ahem~~ Master Hokage, the villagers are looking for you.”
Hatake Sakumo cleared his throat and swiftly changed the subject. He couldn’t reveal what he had just witnessed – Master Hokage’s peculiar encounter with the pheasant.
Blushing, Aburame Jingmei hurriedly left with a ‘hum.’
“Hey~~”
Chiba was fatigued and felt it was futile to explain himself. After gathering his composure, he began to inquire.
“What do the villagers need me for?”
“It’s about fertilizing the fields…”
“Fertilization?”
“Yes! Due to the recent warm weather, the villagers are planning to grow some fruits and vegetables.”
Upon hearing Hatake Sakumo’s words, Chiba became uneasy. As the dignified Hokage, he was expected to participate in fertilization? Unthinkable! Even if they beat him to death, he would not go.
Half an hour later…
Dung Escape – Dung Rain Technique!
Standing on the edge of the farmland, Chiba calmly demonstrated his imitation ability.
Instantly, a cloud of feces gathered, and dung pellets began to rain down onto the fields. The surrounding villagers cheered upon seeing this and gazed at Chiba with admiration.
“Small! This is just child’s play~”
Smiling and waving at the villagers, Chiba held his head high, basking in the waves of praise. He maintained his cheerful demeanor even as he left the field.
“Master Hokage, how are you feeling?”
“Well~~ In the future, we need to engage in more grassroots activities like this!”
Chiba patted Hatake Sakumo on the shoulder, highly content with his subordinate’s arrangement. After all, the opinions of the masses were of great significance.
Suddenly, an Anbu appeared.
“Master Hokage, the Uzumaki clan has sent a distress message, and all the clans are waiting for you in the conference room.”
Upon arriving in the meeting room, Chiba noticed that the heads of all the different clans were present, including Danzo.
“Master Hokage is here!”
As Chiba entered, everyone stood and greeted him with the utmost respect.
“Please, take your seats.”
Waving his hand, Chiba was not accustomed to such formalities. As he settled into his seat, two scrolls were placed in front of him.
After scanning the content on the first scroll, Chiba was considerably surprised.
“Kirigakure is sending a vanguard force to attack the Uzumaki clan?”
Immediately, he opened the second scroll.
“Rain Shinobi Village is gathering its forces on the border?”
Chiba was puzzled as to why there were two pieces of information presented simultaneously.
“Isn’t Kirigakure allied with Rain Shinobi Village?”
After pondering for a moment, Chiba handed the scrolls to others, saying, “Let’s take a look!”
The group began to pass and read the scrolls.
After some time, everyone finished reviewing the scrolls, and Chiba signaled for them to speak.
“Master Hokage, I’m sure that Mist Shinobi and Rain Shinobi have formed an alliance.”
“Rain Shinobi is stationed on the border, waiting for Mist Shinobi to breach the Uzumaki clan. Then, both Mist Shinobi and Rain Shinobi will launch simultaneous attacks on our border,” said Nara, the clan head, succinctly and with insight.
He possessed remarkable strategic foresight, nearly on par with Homura.
“I’m curious – considering the defeat of the Sand Shinobi Village, why do Rain Shinobi and Mist Shinobi think they can win?”
The Yamanaka clan head voiced his perplexity, a question that resonated with many present.
This doubt wasn’t limited to just him; it was shared by numerous attendees.
After all, Sand Shinobi Village had suffered a total defeat and even had its village submerged. Given such circumstances, Rain Shinobi and Mist Shinobi were still uniting to target the Land of Fire, which was baffling.
Chiba was also curious about this.
“Perhaps it’s due to the H?zuki Clan,” Danzo suddenly spoke.
All eyes turned to Danzo.
“The H?zuki Clan has a secret technique called the Hydrification Technique. If I’m not mistaken, the Hydration Technique can counter your abilities, Hokage.”
Following Danzo’s statement, everyone suddenly understood.
The Hydrification Technique transformed the user’s entire body into a liquid state, rendering Chiba’s ability to induce diarrhea ineffective. After all, in a hydrated state, the GH?zuki Clan’s bodies were filled with water, leaving only the upper body for combat.
“I see!”
Chiba comprehended the situation. In this state, the opponent wouldn’t even have buttocks to induce diarrhea. However, the opponent still had a mouth, right?
As long as the opponent had an opening on their body, he could use his ability to manipulate them. After all, his ability had evolved since his awakening.
Thinking of this, Chiba felt the urge to experiment with this clan himself.
Clearing his throat, he spoke.
“Kirigakure has dispatched a vanguard to attack the Uzumaki clan! As a close friend and ally of the Uzumaki clan, I’ve decided to personally handle this.”
“No!”
“Absolutely not!”
“Impossible!”
As soon as Chiba spoke, everyone objected vehemently, with firm determination.
“Master Hokage, your safety is of utmost importance. We, the Uchiha clan, will go to the front lines. We’re ready.”
The Uchiha clan head stood up with a resolute tone, radiating combat readiness.
It was a ludicrous notion for Chiba to be at the front lines. Even if the entire clan was dispatched, they would not allow Chiba to venture to the front. In the event that something happened to him, there would be no room for remorse.
“My Hyuga clan can proceed to the border of the Land of Rain to monitor Rain Shinobi.”
“My Nara clan can go to the Land of Whirlpools…”
“I represent the Akimichi clan…”
“I’m from the Yamanaka clan…”
The clan heads expressed their readiness to lead their clans to the front line.
Danzo was the only one left, looking at Chiba, ready to speak.
However, Chiba spoke first.
“As Hokage, if I dare not go to the front lines, then why be Hokage?”
Sweeping his eyes across the assembly, Chiba’s gaze was stern.
“The First Hokage and the Second Hokage went to the front lines, and they handled it fine.”
“If Mist Shinobi has sent a vanguard to attack the Uzumaki clan, we shall first deal with Mist Shinobi! Once that’s taken care of, we can then address Rain Shinobi.”
Concluding, he turned his attention to Danzo.
“Danzo! I order you to depart for Rain Shinobi Village immediately, employing any means necessary to delay Hanzo. If you can stall him for a few days, it will be a significant achievement!”
