Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 205: Cicada Mantis and Yellow Bird
"Haha, I finally waited for your arrival, Yifang-san."

At the agreed place.

The moment I saw Menma’s figure appear.

A look of joy also appeared on Shuiyan's face. The reason why he dared to break the contract and deal with the Rain Ninja group after the plan was successfully implemented was, firstly, he was confident in his own strength, and secondly, because he had the support of Menma.

After several contacts, exchanges, and my own investigation.

Shisha is already 100% sure of Menma's identity, that they are from the ninja unit directly under the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

The one who is known as the 'Twelve Guardian Ninjas'.

Although we don't know much about it, the Land of Fire is the largest country in the entire world. The ninja troops directly under the command of the Fire Land Daimyo are not really strong, but at least they are stronger than the ninjas of ordinary small ninja villages.

The Hidden Rain Village does not have the ability to send out too many troops.

As long as I have such a strong supporter, I don’t have to worry about any problems.

"Hehe, I'm a little late than planned. I hope Shisha-san doesn't mind."

Menma, with a slightly resolute face of a young man, looked at the approaching hookah and said with a smile.

"No, no, no, it's already the best outcome that Fang Yi-san is willing to come. I think the daimyo should have agreed to my request, right?"

Shisha really looked at Menma with a hint of excitement, and asked as if she couldn't wait.

"Of course, if the daimyo disagrees, I will not come. However, Shuiyan-san, I have to confirm with you one last thing. Once the plan is successfully implemented, you in Takigakure Village will not need to pledge allegiance to His Highness, but you will need to obey His Highness' orders in many matters. You must remember this."

Menma smiled slightly, then leaned forward slightly, looking at the hookah with a smile, but obviously with a warning.

"Of course, your help to me is a great favor. As I said before, from now on, as long as your Highness needs me, even if it means going through fire and water, I will do my best to help you!"

Shisha looked at Menma with a very serious expression, as if swearing.

"Haha, it's not that serious. Your Highness won't force you to do anything. I should know exactly what Your Highness needs. Some things can be done, but some things are not as you wish. Don't you agree? I'll take it for granted."

Menma said noncommittally.

But the more this attitude is.

Shisha became more and more convinced of the sincerity of the Fire Country Daimyo represented by Menma.

Many times, the so-called highest level of lies is that almost all of them are true, but only one sentence is false.

But just that one sentence is enough.

The more Menma showed this attitude, the more Shisha believed in Menma.

There is also a big difference between 'utilize' and 'take advantage of', at least when comparing the group of Rain Ninjas led by Midoriya Aoi.

It was obvious that Shisha gave Menma and his group greater trust.

After all, the conditions and demands given by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire represented by Menma and his crew were too real, so real that even Shisha felt it was a little outrageous for a moment, but it was still within the acceptable range for her.

It is precisely because of this.

The level of credibility is infinitely raised.

As a former quasi-high-ranking official of Takigakure Village, Shuiyan was naturally well aware of the complex relationship between the country and the ninja village, and she was even more aware of the extremely subtle relationship between the daimyo and the leader of the ninja village.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire already has a relatively stable position.

After all, he still had a ninja power system like the Twelve Ninjas under his command. Although it was far inferior to any sizable ninja village, it was already of a certain size and much stronger than the daimyo of other countries. Therefore, it was understandable and acceptable that they had more ambitions.

Nowadays, which country's daimyo or nobles don't want to fully control the power of the ninja villages within their own country?
It's just that they can't do it.

And they dare not take overly radical measures.

God knows what kind of problems will arise.

Based on this point, Shuiyan herself felt that there was absolutely no problem with Menma and his group. Even if there were problems, they would be after he had firmly established himself as the leader of Takigakure Village. It should even be said that as long as there was no problem that was too embarrassing for him, Shuiyan had no intention of falling out with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire represented by Menma.

You can obtain a large amount of stable support in terms of materials, money and other resources.

Only a fool wouldn't do that.

Still the same sentence.

As long as the risks are not far greater than the benefits, hookah users are happy to continue this "semi-submissive" relationship.

"Haha, Yifang-san is joking."

Shisha just laughed it off and just brushed it off.

Little did he know that Menma had been fooling and perfunctorily dealing with him from the beginning to the end, and simply wanted to use him to stir up civil strife in Takigakure Village so that he would have the opportunity to intervene.

"So, what is the current situation? That Shibuki leader should have fallen into the trap, right? If the time is ripe, don't delay any further. Getting rid of that Shibuki leader sooner can also stabilize the situation sooner. Your Highness still has many tasks that need Shibuki-san to execute."

Menma suppressed the smile on his face, a hint of deepness flashed in his pupils, and he spoke in a slightly low voice.

"Everything is going smoothly, Ichifang-san. All arrangements have been made. Before you arrived, the last move was made. Shibuki was completely fooled. Nearly a hundred of the most loyal Taki ninjas have been dispatched. In the next few days, Shibuki will not have many guards around him. This is the best time for us to take action."

Shisha said with a smug look on her face.

Come to think of it, he also felt that he had every right to be proud.

We received help from the Fire Country officials and the Hidden Rain Village.

In addition to getting rid of his own subordinates internally, he also cleverly persuaded Fu to transfer away some of Shibuki's most loyal subordinates. The power balance between the enemy and us has reached an extremely disparate level.

Built on this situation.

Shisha is truly confident that she can take the throne of the leader of Takigakure Village.

"Very good. Since everything is as planned, there is no need to make any adjustments later. I will also follow the requirements of Shisha-san and take action at the end. Let us handle that group of people."

Menma also showed a very satisfied smile and nodded.

"Haha, then I'll have to trouble Yifang-san!"

Shisha also said with a look of great joy.

"Well, I would also like to congratulate His Excellency Chief Shisha in advance!"

Menma smiled slightly at the words that were spoken.

It also made the complacent look on Shuiyan's face even more intense.

And in the depths of Menma's pupils, there was a hint of sarcasm that no one noticed.

Now everything is ready except for the east wind!!
