Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 183: First Meeting with Ohnoki (Part )
PS: I would like to report to all my fellow book friends in advance. Today, my unit leader informed me that I have to work overtime tomorrow and the day after tomorrow is to be determined, so I have to take at least one day off. I hope all my fellow book friends will forgive me. If I have more time in the future, I will try my best to write to make up for it.

Menma, who was far away in the Land of Grass, naturally didn't know that there was a high probability that he could temporarily avoid a collision with Obito in advance.

When Menma tried to seize Kakashi's Sharingan, he was of course prepared to face the corresponding risks. This was also the result of Menma's careful consideration. After all, Obito's Kamui Jutsu is a very buggy existence. It's not that there is no other way to crack it, but at present, the best solution is to seize Obito's other Mangekyō Sharingan transplanted in Kakashi.

The Kamui space connected by the two Mangekyō Sharingan is the same.

As long as you can get this point right.

Obito's hollowification is a joke to Menma.

And put aside the blessings brought by divine power.

What else does Obito have?
At best, he is an elite jonin at the quasi-kage level.

After all, Obito, who has no eyes and cannot open Susanoo, is not really very strong. The fact that Minato in the original work was able to severely injure Obito after analyzing some of the characteristics of Obito's Kamui before the battle is enough to speak for himself.

The subsequent match against Xiaonan is also an example.

Even Obito's most glorious achievement, defeating the perfect Jinchuriki Yagura and then easily controlling his will, was based on the presence of Nagato and Konan.

Judging from Obito's performance in those few battles, it is almost certain that it was Nagato who defeated Yagura. Only after severely injuring him could Obito easily control Yagura with a single Mangekyō Sharingan.

otherwise.

There is no way to explain the difference in combat power between Obito before and after.

If Obito could really easily deal with the Fourth Mizukage Karutagi Yagura, who was a perfect jinchūriki and a Kage-level figure, then would he need to use the Izanagi technique to deal with a mere Konan?
Will it give Xiaonan the opportunity to use the "trench escape" later?

Shouldn't he just move his eyes and use illusion to control Xiaonan directly?
A Mangekyō Sharingan, even with the blessing of Wood Release Cells, is not eternal after all, nor is it all-encompassing. If it could suppress a perfect Jinchūriki effortlessly.

Then it is indeed reasonable enough that Uchiha Itachi's fighting power is exaggerated to the sky.

In other words, Menma, who has now used the Nine-Tails' chakra to the level of the Four-Tails and even the Five-Tails, can be said to possess the power of a Kage. Not to mention anything else, it is definitely not too difficult for him to contend with Obito.

Even if he has the advantage in intelligence and holds Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan, it is not impossible to defeat or even kill Obito by surprise if he uses it properly.

In a ninja battle, when the difference in strength is not too great, the difference in intelligence is enough to determine victory.

At the very least, at this stage, Menma belongs to the 'dark' side, and Obito, who claims to have always been hiding behind the scenes and controlling everything, belongs to the 'light' side.

From this perspective.

Menma is in an advantageous position. Even if Obito is really strong, there is no substantial gap in strength between the two sides.

Menma was not afraid at all and started the collision with Obito in advance.

There are risks, but the benefits are also visible.

The rest will ultimately depend on each other's on-the-spot judgment.

Of course, these are just Menma's own guesses. It is possible that Obito is really that strong, and some of his poor performances are just because he was careless.

But so what?

Whether it is pursuing high-risk decisions at any time or simply seeking stability, it is both going to extremes.

What Menma has to do is to choose the one with the greatest benefit in every choice. Since Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan is already in front of him, he has no reason not to take it.

Because the benefits outweigh the risks.

Being decisive does indeed lead to a chance of success, but hesitation will definitely lead to defeat.

He was already unwilling to stay in the 'stable' environment of Konoha, to follow the original work's route and be a successor with peace of mind. There was no reason for him to be hesitant when the time came.

Attack with force.

This is the way to do it.

While Menma was doing his own experiment, he was also on guard against Obito's possible attack at any time.

The three days passed quickly.

This ushered in the meeting time. "Is the location there? I thought Orochimaru-san would arrange it directly near the base."

After stepping out of this secret base with Orochimaru.

Menma also looked at Orochimaru with a slightly surprised expression.

Of course, this surprise is not only based on this point, but also because the next meeting place is very close to the Kammubi Bridge, which is also a place that fans of the original work are most familiar with.

After all, one of the big bosses, Uchiha Obito, was "sacrificed" there.

Kakashi also inherited his Sharingan from there.

"Haha, the Third Tsuchikage has shown his sincerity, shouldn't we show some appreciation as well? Or does Menma think it would be more appropriate to stay near the base? If so, it's not impossible to change it. I believe the Third Tsuchikage will most likely agree to it."

Orochimaru said hoarsely with that familiar devilish smile.

"Oh, that's not necessary, I just said it casually."

Menma raised his eyebrows, looked at Orochimaru's still familiar face, and said in a calm tone.

Speaking of which, Orochimaru still cares a little about his original appearance. Even though this is not the first time he has changed his body, he still has to get back to his original appearance in the end.

This is probably a special kind of obsession.

"Well, that's fine. Let's get going then. We can't keep our 'guests' waiting for too long."

Orochimaru smiled softly, deliberately emphasizing the word 'guest'.

"Haha, that's true, let's go then, Orochimaru-san."

Menma looked like he didn't understand the deeper meaning of Orochimaru's words at all. After laughing, he also leaped up.

Leave at high speed.

After being slightly stunned, Orochimaru smiled and shook his head, then he followed closely.

Go forward to the agreed place.

With the speed of Menma and Orochimaru, it would only take less than half a day to arrive.

Ohnoki, who was a little further away, also set off at a similar time.

the reason is simple.

Old people can fly.

It's a pure straight-line distance.

Even if he was only traveling with one person, he didn't feel any pressure at all, as he was the longest-serving shadow.

Of course, Ōnoki's chakra amount cannot be compared with that of a real chakra pervert, or a jinchūriki.

But it is also a terrifying existence far beyond that of ordinary ninjas.

The chakra consumption for flying such a short distance is not a problem at all.

It was only a few hours later.

Ohnoki took his son Huangtu across the long border of the Land of Earth and entered the Land of Grass.

Before the agreed location.

Ohnoki had already vaguely seen the two figures standing there.

'Is that Menma Uzumaki?'

The slender figure on the left side passed directly by.

Ohnoki's gaze was also fixed directly on the young man with red hair on his shoulders on the right.
