Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 273 The Situation of Each Other
"Father, perhaps the future is still uncertain, but I think at least by following Menma-sama, we can still see the possibility of a different future. What's more, Menma-sama is still indebted to us."

After Menma left.

The father and son stayed where they were.

Also after a short silence.

Wuqiu seemed to have mustered up all his courage, looked up at Wuwei, and spoke in a firm tone.

Just like the Yugao you want to strive for.

Facing Wuwei and Wugui, father and son.

Menma is relatively honest about his plans and the goals he wants to achieve. He never hides his selfish motives, but at the same time he also has goals in the future that he is determined to achieve.

Menma knew very well that an outstanding leader, a leader who could attract others to follow and obey, must have a clear goal and plan.

People who go with the flow and take one step at a time will never be recognized by others.

In this regard, even Menma's younger brother, Naruto, has his own firm goals both in the original work and in this life.

Don’t worry about whether it is realistic or ridiculous.

After all, there is a clear goal there.

It can allow Naruto to gain recognition and following from people of the same kind.

The same is true for Orochimaru.

This is a basic quality that a superior must possess, and Menma has been very clear about this from the beginning. What's more important is that he is not fooling others, but is really moving towards this goal, because this does not conflict with realizing his personal selfishness and completing his personal revenge.

On the contrary, it should be said that it is an inevitable choice on the same road!

Public and private.

Wuque all agrees with Menma.

Not to mention the promises made before.

Wuque hopes that his father will not change his mind.

"It seems that you have really grown up, Wuque."

Wuwei looked at Wugou with a look of relief.

"Father?"

"Don't worry, Muku, even if it's just for you, I won't betray Master Menma. If you want to truly return to your human form, you still need to rely on Master Menma. How could I do something stupid?"

Wuwei patted his son's shoulder gently and spoke gently.

The formation of a force.

Beliefs and goals are of course the most important.

But the most basic thing is still the community of interests.

Especially as a leader, you must ensure, or be able to achieve the interests of your subordinates, so that you will truly gain recognition and followers from more people.

This is the most realistic!
This is also the biggest reason why Menma is very confident in Wuwei. As long as Wuwei still values ​​his son so much, Wuwei will definitely be used by Menma.

When Wuqiu heard his father's words, the tension in his heart relaxed a little.

"Go ahead. If nothing unexpected happens to Master Menma, we should get news within two days. Then we should act accordingly!"

"Yes, Father!"

Menma, who had already left, didn't know that for his plan, Wuqiu almost went to warn his father, because he himself was still secretly on guard, planning to take backup measures immediately if anything went wrong with Wuwei and Wuqiu. This is actually a very normal part of human nature.

Some emotions that have been settled over time may still lead to betrayal.

Not to mention people you just met?

Menma will boldly make all the courageous decisions he wants, but he will also be prepared in advance to prevent any eventuality.

And it was almost when Menma had just left Kizuki Castle and reunited with Suigetsu, Karin and others.

"Psychic art!"

Menma immediately used his psychic powers.

"Menma-sama!"

Directly summoned a small lizard about one meter long.

The lacquer-rock wild lizards that Menma signed a summoning contract with were a whole clan, not just a single powerful ninja beast. In addition to the lacquer-rock wild lizards, there were a few large lizards that could be used for combat, and the rest were some small lizards that could be used for reconnaissance and transmitting information.

It can be said that this greatly facilitates Menma.

Because of the art of spiritualism, all you need to do is let multiple people sign the same contract.

This will enable timely information delivery regardless of distance.

And it is highly confidential.

The reason why Menma did not covet the Ryuchi Cave Contract from Orochimaru was because there was some information that Menma hoped Orochimaru would know.

After all, they are not our family.

"Pass this scroll back, and have Yugao tell Shibuki-san that we can start the action now!"

Menma handed out a scroll from his arms and spoke to the dark lizard in front of him.

"Yes, Master Menma, I will obey your command!"

The dark lizard swallowed the scroll Menma handed over into its stomach in one gulp.

Following from that.

There was a "pop" sound.

It simply turned into smoke and disappeared.

Ever since he obtained the spiritual contract scroll of the Lacquer Rock Wild Lizard Clan, Menma had Karin sign on it as soon as possible. Later, when Yugao joined, he also made Yugao a contractor, so that the three of them could still communicate with each other when they were separated.

Yu Gao was not brought along this time.

One is to strengthen the defense of Takigakure Village.

Another is to facilitate the transmission of information.

"Menma, can we really start the next phase right now? If that person cooperates with us, we will be in big trouble, right!?"

And it was just when Menma had just delivered the message.

At one side, Karin stepped forward, looked at Menma with a serious expression and asked.

For people outside.

Xianglin has always been extremely vigilant.

Originally, Xianglin thought it was in the second phase of the plan.

Menma would bring Wuwei and Wuqiu, father and son, and then let her and Suigetsu stay in the Ghost Lantern Castle to integrate the Grass Ninjas there, although doing so would easily cause the Grass Ninjas to become unsettled, making it difficult to integrate them, and more likely to cause problems such as "camp roar".

But from the perspective of trust, this is the safest option.

"Yes, Master Menma, without any means of defense, it is equivalent to leaving the choice to them. Isn't this very appropriate?"

Hozuki Suigetsu also spoke cautiously.

After a longer period of time together.

Especially as the power of Menma seemed to be increasing rapidly, Shuiyue's previous thoughts faded a lot. It's not to say that Shuiyue is now completely loyal to Menma.

If the situation was really wrong, Shuiyue would definitely be the first one to lead the escape, but at least compared to the beginning, Shuiyue's recognition and trust in Menma has increased a lot. Maybe Menma really has a chance to succeed, not to mention that Menma has also promised Shuiyue a big "sweet date"!
If there is a choice, Shuiyue may also hope to see Menma succeed. This can be regarded as a rather contradictory psychological period for Shuiyue at present.

However, in the current situation, Shuiyue still holds the same view as Xianglin, and always feels that too much trust cannot be given to Wuwei and Wuqiu, father and son.

If something goes wrong, wouldn’t their plan this time be ruined?

"I understand what you mean, Karin, but this is the best option at this stage. Unless we are willing to take over a mess, it is obviously not in our interest. The Kusagakure Village must maintain a relatively complete combat power, and at least 70% to 80% of the Kusagakure Ninja's combat power can be added to our integration plan. Only in this way, our actions this time will be meaningful. Risks and benefits often go hand in hand. At least compared to others, Wuwei-san and Wuque-kun still have a foundation of trust!"

Menma said, shaking his head slightly.

There is a basic level of trust and common interests.

And the most important thing is that now Wuque also cannot do without Menma's help.

A three-pronged approach.

Menma felt that he didn't need to worry too much, as the risks were far less than what could be controlled.

"But..."

Xianglin still had some concerns and wanted to say something else.

"We are about to set off too. If nothing unexpected happens, the enemy's support troops will be arriving soon!"

Menma waved his hand, interrupting Karin's subsequent words.

"alright, I got it."

Xianglin pursed her lips and could only nod.

"Don't worry, Karin, everything will be fine!"

Menma smiled and patted Karin's head, speaking softly.

"Ok!"

"Then let's go, time waits for no one!"

The falling words.

"boom!"

Chakra bursts out.

next second.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

Led by Menma, the group rushed rapidly towards the southern direction of the Kusagakure Village.

And that was before Menma and his group headed south.

Go back to half a day ago.

The Land of Grass is located in a flat area on the northwest side.

The Kusagakure Village was built here.

It is the largest border point between the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire.

In the past three Ninja World Wars.

As long as a battle breaks out between the Iwagakure Village and the Konohagakure Village, the Kusagakure Village will inevitably be involved.

This is the inevitable outcome determined by the geographical location.

Although Takigakure Village is also sandwiched between various countries, it is not like Kusagakure Village, which is obviously subject to the attack of Iwagakure Village and Konohagakure Village. In addition, Takigakure Village has a certain degree of geographical advantages, as well as a powerful weapon like the Seven-Tails.

Therefore, even though the scale seems to be similar, the living environment of Takigakure Village is still much better than that of Kusagakure Village.

It is also based on this point that these past years have passed.

The top leaders of Kusagakure Village have been seeking a breakthrough.

The most classic example of wanting to get rid of the predicament of their own ninja village is the city faction headed by Wuwei and the four elders wanting to open the Box of Paradise.

But this approach.

However, they were opposed by the village faction headed by their leader Masashi Shigeta. On the one hand, they did not think that the Box of Paradise was really an omnipotent wish-making machine. On the other hand, they always felt that as a small ninja village, they should seek how to develop and survive in a stable manner, rather than seeking their own death.

The conflict between the two factions is based on this dividing point and has intensified in the past two years.

There was a time when that happened.

Masashi Shigeta has even considered whether to introduce Iwagakure or Konohagakure to completely eradicate the Castle Faction.

But that would be a huge blow to their own ninja village.

Masashi Shigeta just couldn't make up his mind.

In addition, the Anbu personnel sent out also kept reporting that the City Faction's repeated attempts to open the Box of Bliss had all failed. So Shigeta Masashi temporarily gave up this overly rough approach and wanted to use gentler means to slowly dismantle the City Faction's power and then take back the Box of Bliss.

Originally, everything was going on in an orderly manner.

But today.

This was an unexpected piece of information that was suddenly received.

"What!? Wuwei has already found a way to open the Paradise Box!? Can we open the Paradise Box immediately in the near future!?"

In the center of Kusagakure Village, in the leader’s private office building.

The leader of the Kusagakure Village, Masashi Shigeta, who was nearly fifty years old, suddenly stood up and looked at one of his most trusted jonin from the village who came to report, and said with a very ugly expression.

"Yes, Lord Shigeta, the news from the inside is that Wuwei seems to have reached an agreement with the rebel ninja Orochimaru of Konohagakure, and then Orochimaru sent the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, who is also a rebel ninja of Konohagakure, Uzumaki Menma, to assist Wuwei in opening the Paradise Box. If it is a tailed beast, and the most powerful Nine-Tails, it must be able to meet the huge amount of chakra required to open the Paradise Box!"

As the highest secret of Kusagakure Village, the existence of the Box of Paradise is not known to everyone. In the City Faction, only Wuwei, the four elders and a few others know about it, and the same is true for the Village Faction.

Even though Maotian wanted to eliminate Wuwei and others immediately.

However, such news has always been suppressed and blocked as much as possible, and it is impossible for too many people to know it easily.

In the entire Kusagakure Village, apart from Shigeta Masashi, only a few people knew about it.

The senior ninja in front of him, who was responsible for monitoring the movements of the city faction for Masashi Shigeta, was one of the insiders.

"Uzumaki Menma!? The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!?"

When Masashi Shigeta heard Menma's name, his pupils shrank noticeably.

"If that's the case, then it's really troublesome. With this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki here, those guys from the City Faction may really be able to open the Box of Bliss!"

Masashi Shigeta frowned and said with a very serious look.

As the leader of Kusagakure Village.

Even though his generation lost control of the Box of Paradise, Masashi Shigeta was very clear about the conditions required to open the Box of Paradise. It should even be said that Masashi Shigeta was very clear about what the Box of Paradise was like.

That's a monster-making machine!
But those idiots just didn't believe him and thought that he, the leader, wanted to take over the Box of Paradise, which made Masashi Shigeta very helpless.

Over the years, he has been planning to take back the Chest of Bliss.

That thing can't be turned on!
They, the Kusagakure Village, are not qualified to control such a horrifying thing now. It is best to seal it up directly as their ancestors said!
