Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 275 Stepping into the Trap

Any choice often carries with it varying degrees of risk.

This is especially true for those who take sides in a powerful group. If they make the wrong choice, then there is only one outcome waiting for them, and that is destruction.

No superior can accept those who are not on the same side with him from the beginning. Although it is not clear how much confidence Wuwei has at present, just based on the information we have learned before, Wuwei already has the power to compete with his own leader. Now he has the help of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Uzumaki Menma, and even Orochimaru. No matter how you look at it, the victory of Tenping is inclined to Wuwei's side.

As mentioned before.

In the current outside world's opinion, it is generally believed that Menma represents Orochimaru.

The reason why the son of the former Hokage defected was because he was fooled by Orochimaru, otherwise a 12-year-old boy would make such a choice on his own! ?

Wuwei + Orochimaru.

This amount is already heavy enough!
It is really difficult for them to make a judgment in such a short time, let alone talk about neutrality.

That is a choice that is only made when there is really no other choice, and most of the time it is something only stupid people would do.

Or maybe it is really a choice that a person who has no desires or demands would make.

As long as you are not worried about being marginalized, you can choose to remain neutral. In the end, any normal superior will not take action against neutral people for the sake of stability.

But neutral people should not expect to gain any benefits in future political situation.

Power and status.

Will have no chance with these people.

"I will follow Master Wuwei 100%, and I believe that Master Wuwei will become the greatest leader of our Kusagakure Village!"

The others were still hesitating, but the green-haired female Kusanagi had already taken the lead in expressing her opinion.

She was already Wuwei's most staunch follower and there was no need for her to hesitate.

"Well, what about you guys? Time waits for no one. If you wait until the news of Shigeta's murder comes back before making a decision, it will be too late."

This clearly revealed a murderous intent.

This also made the faces of the remaining few Grass Ninjas change.

They had already guessed that since they were prepared, they would definitely attack their leader. The reason they were unsure was that if Mao Tian died, there would be no need to say anything, but what if he came back alive! ?
After all, he is the legitimate leader of the village.

If nothing unexpected happens, many people will still choose to support Masashi Shigeta.

Unlike leaders like Shibuki who have no prestige at all, Shigeta has been leading the Kusagakure Village for nearly 20 years.

For a moment, it was indeed a little difficult for you to get these Grass Ninjas to make a decision.

But hesitation cannot last long.

"I am also willing to follow Master Wuwei!"

Following which a black-haired Kusanagi from the far left spoke with difficulty.

The remaining three or four Kusa-nin were like the opening of a dam.

"I would like that too."

"I am willing to obey the orders of Master Wuwei!"

One by one, they expressed their attitudes.

There are still risks, but at the moment, Wuwei's chances of winning are much higher. Anyway, we have to make a choice, so we can only follow our feelings.

"Very good, I knew that you all must be reasonable people. Then, please act according to the orders of Master Wuwei!"

The blue-haired man spoke with a look of great joy on his face.

Then he told the orders he received from Wuwei to the several Grass Ninjas in front of him.

After each of them received their corresponding orders.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

These Grass Ninjas also dispersed and went to carry out their respective tasks.

As for whether all these people will honestly obey Wuwei's orders, only they themselves and God know.

But what these people don't know is.

Their own choices are just the icing on the cake.

It’s okay to do nothing.

It doesn't matter if it's numb.

I don't really think these people are that important.

It would be best if you could subdue them successfully, which would save you a lot of trouble, even if some people have to resort to some tricks.

Menma and Wuwei also have corresponding measures waiting for them.

Menma did not let Wuwei follow him to carry out the encirclement and suppression mission, not only because Wuwei was needed to integrate the Ghost Lantern City, but also because once things in the Ghost Lantern City were preliminarily arranged, Wuwei would follow Menma's orders and take a detour directly to the Grass Village.

This was also a preparation to prevent any accidents from happening to Menma and not to kill Masashi Shigeta.

It can be said.

Menma has already made corresponding arrangements for all the factors that can be taken into consideration.

However, Masashi Shigeta, who had already left the village, was still completely in the dark. He had no idea that there were already turbulences inside his own ninja village, and he was stepping into the trap that Menma had already set up at a very fast speed.

A group of Kusagakure ninjas rushed forward at high speed.

Because it's on our own territory.

Masashi Shigeta had no warning at all. He just chose the shortest road and went straight ahead. It was no wonder that Masashi Shigeta was so careless. He really felt that his side had the advantage of time deviation. Currently, they were still in the territory of the Land of Grass, and there were a certain number of strongholds of his own ninja village in various border locations.

None of these strongholds sent any early warning signals.

Why should Masashi Shigeta worry?!

It is impossible for a large force to escape inspection at these strongholds.

Shigeta Masashi didn't think he had to worry about the small group of troops, and who else would come to intercept him at this point in time! ?

Naturally, Masashi Shigeta boldly went straight forward.

But what he didn't know at all was.

There is a dragnet waiting for him ahead.

He didn't even know that the strongholds in the front had either been cleared out in advance or had been secretly led by Wuwei from the beginning.

The traces of Maotian and his group were almost under people's noses.

That was when Masashi Shigeta led more than 300 of his own Grass Ninjas to the northernmost side, close to the border.

"Psychic art!"

Suddenly.

In the position directly in front.

A clear voice fell.

"Boom!"

An extremely huge black shadow instantly appeared in the eyes of Masashi Shigeta, Sanzhi, Lei Shi and others.

"boom!"

There was a dull thud as it landed on the ground.

Then there was a chilly atmosphere that spread.

"alert!"

Although it is unclear who is blocking the way, he looks very aggressive.

This also made Masashi Shigeta's face change.

His body suddenly stopped, and Masashi Mota raised his right hand and shouted loudly.

As Masashi Shigeta finished his words, the Grass Ninjas running in the back also took up fighting stance one by one.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?!"

Mao Tian Qi Shi stepped forward, pulling out the huge chakra weapon, looking at the huge figure in the distance, and shouted loudly.

Mishi, Raiichi and other Kusanagi followed closely behind.

"Haha, of course they are here to kill you, Mr. Maotian!"

Above the huge black shadow.

A straight figure stepped out.

The moment that fiery red hair caught the eyes of Masashi Shigeta.

The pupils of the leader of the Kusagakure Village also shrank suddenly.

"Menma Uzumaki!? Why are you here? You're not supposed to be!?"

"Shouldn't they be on their way here? Haha, Mr. Maotian, have you ever thought that this might be a trick?"

The person who came, Menma, stood on the head of his summoning beast, the lizard Urushi, and said to Shigeta Masashi with a faint smile on his face.

Menma never expected the plan to go so smoothly.

It was originally in his estimation.

The probability that Masashi Shigeta will go out personally is no more than 50%.

Even if we have to consider other possibilities.

But we also have to consider the risks, right?
The most likely scenario is that Masashi Shigeta will send his most capable assistant to lead a group of people to explore the area first, and then make a decision based on the situation.

Menma was already prepared to deal with a group of people first, and then let Wuwei bring people to join him to pressure the Grass Village together. Now it seems.

It went much smoother than planned!
As long as we can successfully get rid of Masashi Shigeta here.

As for the remaining people in Kusagakure Village, there will be no problem with Wuwei's help.

"It's a trick? Is it possible!?"

Shigeta Masashi is the leader of a village after all. Although he is not that outstanding and tends to take things for granted, Menma's words can still make him understand all the key points instantly. He realizes that he has completely walked into the enemy's trap.

Masashi Shigeta felt cold all over.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately!"

At this moment.

Masashi Shigeta also had no desire to fight.

That was a direct order.

"!?"

On both sides.

Shigeta's two most loyal subordinates, Sanzhi and Lei Shi, both showed an incredible look.

Is our leader going to retreat just because of that one sentence?!

This is too unreasonable! ?
The person opposite is a real person, right?!

Even if it is the famous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, their side is led by the leader himself, and there are a large army of 300 people. Why should they be afraid of one person?
There's a trap!?

Kill him first!

"Master Maoda, this?"

Sanzhi looked puzzled.

"Don't you understand my order? Retreat immediately!"

Masashi Shigeta looked at Sanzhi with a ferocious expression and roared out these words.

While causing Ling Sanzhi to shudder, he suddenly lowered his head and replied, "Yes, Master Maotian!"

This is a question that Sanzhi and Lei Shi would think of.

Wouldn't Maotian know?!

But he had to consider worse scenarios.

Especially since Wuwei hasn't appeared here yet, it is a very dangerous signal. If not here, where could he be?
Maotian knew Wuwei very well, and he was even more aware of the situation in his own ninja village.

He felt that if he had returned a little later, the situation in the village might have changed drastically.

That was a result that Masashi Shigeta definitely didn't want to see.

But Shigeta wanted to quit.

How could Menma let him retreat!?

All the Kusanagi here.

Others can be considered on a case-by-case basis. As long as they are not really die-hard fans, there is room for maneuver.

Only Masashi Shigeta must be killed!
Who made him the leader of Kusagakure Village?!

Moreover, he is the kind of leader who has been in office for nearly twenty years. Without killing this guy, Menma will not be able to truly integrate the power of the Kusagakure Village.

Such an old guy.

In the absence of desire or demand.

It is even more impossible to truly submit to Menma.

and so.

"Leave!? Did I allow you to leave? Mr. Maotian, I told you that today is the day you will die here!"

Menma's expression turned cold.

"Snapped!"

With a strong slap.

"Lacquer soil"

"Yes, Master Menma!"

The huge amount of chakra that gushed out.

"Earth escape technique - dome bursting technique!"

This A-level earth escape technique was directly released, and when the imprint was completed, the ground began to vibrate.

Qi Tu also cooperated with his master and stepped hard with his front limbs.

"Boom!"

On both sides, clods of earth were lifted up layer by layer and pressed down towards the more than 300 grass ninjas in the center.

"Crash!"

Huge pieces of rubble fell down.

The surface area is broken into pieces.

"!?"

"what!?"

"Well!?"

In an instant, it covered this large area.

The Kusa ninjas were all separated from each other.

next second.

"boom!"

An extremely powerful chakra wave burst out from Menma's body and attacked directly towards Masashi Shigeta's position.

A figure running forward.

The space was filled with a cold murderous intent.

"!?"

It only took less than a second.

Menma had already rushed to a close position.

Now, even without using the Nine-Tails' chakra, Menma's personal strength has already reached the ceiling level of a jonin.

A powerful aura that is infinitely close to the quasi-shadow level.

"Shh!"

Wherever you look.

The cold light is fully revealed.

Shigeta barely had time to react.

From the side angle.

A sharp cold front then burst out.

"Keng!"

Barely holding the kunai.

Feeling the tremendous power coming from above.

"The soul is pale!"

Maotian's expression also became very ugly.

"Master Mota!"

"Lord Chief!"

When Sanzhi and Lei Shi, who were the closest, saw this scene, they quickly turned over and ran over to protect Maotian.

"Hey, let me play with you two for a bit and see what strength you Grass Ninjas really have!?"

But it’s only half a step forward.

In the lower side position.

Suddenly a puddle of water appeared.

next second.

A blurry figure suddenly jumped out from the puddle of water, and the bright white teeth of a shark were none other than Gui Deng Shui Yue.

A sudden and violent attack.

"Shh!"

"Pfft!"

The sharp special chakra knife directly cut through Sanzhi's collar and scratched his skin.

In other words, Sanzhi was experienced and reacted very quickly, twisting his body backwards.

This is how he avoided fatal damage.

But it also left a scar on it.

The pain was transmitted and the scarlet blood also flowed out at this moment.
