Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 380: Invasion under the Shadow

Although there is no precedent.

But Menma has such confidence, and this is also a necessary condition for him to agree to Youlu. Therefore, Menma doesn't mind saying it in advance to whet Tutai's appetite. The most important thing is to test Tutai further.

Menma still felt that everyone in the Hidden Cloud Village was harboring evil intentions.

He wanted to try this with the wooden man.

Menma still couldn't believe that the Hidden Cloud Village would turn a blind eye to Yukito.

And Tutai's performance just now undoubtedly proved this point.

The Hidden Cloud Village still has not given up on saving the Yukito. In fact, this thing is also very conjecture. That is the Jinchūriki. No ninja village will easily give up such a strategic weapon.

As I said, the wooden man is not the most important thing.

The second tail is the key.

And from the perspective of the Hidden Cloud Village.

When the tailed beast is extracted, it means the death of the jinchūriki.

Now Menma says that Yumudo can be put back.

Doesn't that mean that they are willing to return the Two-Tails to their Hidden Cloud Village? It can be said that at that moment, Dodai's heart was severely shocked.

Pie fell from the sky!

And it's a very exaggerated one.

The earthen platform was smashed to pieces.

Could it be that Menma had seen the kindness shown by his own village? Was he willing to accept it? Was releasing Yugito an olive branch from Menma?
Tutai's brain also started working rapidly at this moment.

Many possibilities to consider.

But they were abandoned one by one.

It should be said that even though he is as smart as Tutai, he is a little confused at this moment, but no matter what it is.

Menma promised Yukito's return.

As long as you are sure of this, nothing else matters.

Of course, Dodai was also very clear that he had a huge weakness in the hands of the opponent. The previous series of arrangements, including today's test, were actually at least half for Yukito. But whether it was Dodai or the Fourth Raikage, they never thought that Menma would easily return the Two-Tails to their Hidden Cloud Village.

Therefore, this is the strategy decided this time.

It's just to lure the Hikari Village into taking the bait.

But now it seems.

It seems like I'm using a bit too much force?

He wanted to really figure out Menma's intentions, but the current situation did not allow Dodai to hesitate any longer, so he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"If that's the case, then I would naturally like to thank Lord Tianying for his magnanimity. After I return, I will definitely report everything to Lord Raikage. The friendship between the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Light Village will last forever!"

Dodai looked at Menma seriously and said in a deep voice.

"Well, the friendship between our two villages will last forever."

Menma smiled softly and said meaningfully.

at that moment.

A faint feeling of disharmony arises in my heart.

But I can't find any clue.

Tutai could only suppress his anger, and after bowing once more, he strode away. This was different from just now. One could see that his unsteady steps represented Tutai's unsettled heart.

When Menma saw this scene, a faint smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.

Because this is the effect that Menma wants.

He can't see through the opponent's intentions, but it doesn't matter. He can just make his own moves. The best way to crack the opponent's moves is to let him fight his and we fight ours.

The core of all plans is to carry out them at your own pace.

"The Hidden Cloud Village, the Fourth Raikage, let me see what evil intentions you are harboring."

Menma narrowed his eyes slightly and tapped lightly on the table with his right index finger.

"No dirt."

"Yes, Master Tianying."

After thinking for a while, he whispered the words.

On the right side, Wuqiu, who had remained silent throughout, stepped forward and replied with a slight bow.

"Select a suitable team from the Anbu and send them to the Land of Lightning. Investigate the current deployment of the Cloud Ninja as much as possible. Remember, there is no need to go deep into the heart of the Hidden Cloud Village. I only need information about the border location."

Intelligence on the movements of all parties.

It requires first-hand knowledge.

Although there is a special intelligence team in the village responsible for the corresponding work.

But as a superior.

The source of intelligence cannot be limited to one channel. The basic approach is to use both light and dark channels. In order to be more cautious, Menma will also obtain necessary information from Orochimaru and summarize the intelligence from the three-party investigation.

Carry out mutual verification and then purify the subsequent information.

This is the information that Menma thinks is the most valuable.

The ninja world today is no longer the one in Menma's memory. The rise of his own ninja village and the development of the original five major countries are completely different, especially the tragic situation of the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Cloud Village. As for the plot development in the original work, Menma cannot trust anything else except the character information. Any judgment and any action must be based on the real information at the moment.

To this end, in intelligence gathering.

It takes a lot of effort to make the face numb.

"Yes, Lord Tianying, I will obey your orders."

Wuqiu bent down and responded in a deep voice.

Following from that.

It was just Menma waving his hand.

"Whoosh!"

Wuque's figure also shook.

Disappeared directly on the spot.

Menma also stood up from his main seat afterwards and walked lightly to the huge floor-to-ceiling window behind him, overlooking the scenery of his own ninja village. This should be the standard configuration of every ninja village leader's building in the entire ninja world.

Because of this interior decoration, the shadows can easily observe the general situation of the entire ninja village.

Menma was also looking through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows at his own ninja village, which was obviously thriving, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Although not starting from scratch.

But this is a ninja village.

It was also built with most of Menma's hard work.

It is actually a super large-scale reality "development game".

This is for both myself and the people in this world.

"Say, let me see what the rest of you have in mind."

Menma narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced in the direction of the Iwagakure Village and Konohagakure Village delegations as if inadvertently. A hint of amusement flashed in his pupils, and he thought secretly in his heart.

Tutai came with a confident look, but left with a strange solemn look.

A battle between ninja villages.

This is often the case. Unless one is truly strong enough to defeat all enemies with one force, he will end up in a so-called political confrontation.

It will evolve into a similar situation.

Dodai originally thought that his own ninja village could control the Hikari Village a little and buy the necessary time for the adjustments of his own ninja village, but Menma's counterattack actually pinched the Hikari Village's weak spot.

Although in the end they will definitely discover the tricks hidden in the making of Menma.

But at least at this stage.

Menma is able to hold the dominant position in the relationship between the two villages.

The third to last ninja village delegation left.

Two days after the earthen platform was destroyed after the celebration.

On January 1, the person who led the delegation left, seemingly 'excited' but also 'worried'.

The delegations from Iwagakure and Konohagakure represented by Huang Tu and Shikaku are still staying in Hikari Village. On the surface, it seems that Huang Tu and Shikaku are having business and diplomatic exchanges with Ajun, Shibuki and others every day, and they are completely devoted to the cooperation negotiations with Hikari Village. However, they have not taken the initiative to request a meeting with Menma.

Then this series of actions can be regarded as delaying time.

Menma didn't care about the actions of Huang Tu, Shikaku and others. As long as they didn't cross the line, Menma would let them make their own judgments. Menma believed that as long as he waited, they would definitely show their true colors. Therefore, after Dodai left, Menma once again explained the focus of the work to Karin and Muku.

He then devoted himself to the construction of the ninja village and his own experimental tests.

The former can also be advanced slowly.

But the latter has reached an important node.

Whether it is further strengthening his own body or extracting the Two-Tailed Matatabi from Yukito, these are the next experiments that Menma needs to carry out immediately.

At the same time, Menma was closely preparing for his own experiment.

In the distant land of water, in the Hidden Mist Village.

This super-large ninja village is still shrouded in dark clouds on a high-rise building in the easternmost part.

A figure wearing a fire cloud robe and an orange spiral mask was standing there with his hands behind his back.

This figure was no other than himself.

It was Runtu who was tirelessly preparing for the final step of the Moon Eye Project.

At this moment, a hint of pride was clearly revealed in the only exposed Sharingan of his. Looking at the Hidden Mist Village right in front of him, Obito's face hidden under the mask was also full of joy.

Many years ago, due to his own mistakes, the fact that he was controlling the Fourth Mizukage behind the scenes was exposed, which prevented him from continuing to remotely control the Hidden Mist Village and launch his own revenge, which made Obito extremely unhappy.

Later, considering the importance of the Moon Eye Project and the fact that the Hidden Mist Village had increased its vigilance, there was not much point in wasting time here, so Obito had to give up, but now he can regain control of this ninja village.

Squeeze out every last bit of value from this ninja village, and while adding to your own plans, you can also avenge your past grudges.

Obito was so happy inside.

"How's it going? Has the last guy been replaced?"

Don't know when.

A dark figure quietly appeared on Obito's left side.

Obito asked lightly without turning around.

"Hehe, they have all been controlled and replaced. The only ones left are the guards in the old man's mansion and the guy named Bi who can't find the space and opportunity to take action. Also, the old man seems to have discovered something. The guy named Quan Bingwei who was controlled before was conducting a secret investigation under the old man's order."

Black Zetsu smiled deeply and reported directly.

Ever since the Hidden Mist Village was severely damaged by Menma and then retreated completely, Obito decided to continue to secretly control the Hidden Mist Village.

After this period of hard work.

After mobilizing a group of White Zetsu.

Most of the senior ninjas who held important positions in the Hidden Mist Village have been replaced. It can be said that Obito's arrangement this time is really much more sophisticated than the previous one, plus he has the assistance of Black Zetsu, the thousand-year-old fox.

The Hidden Mist Village really fell into Obito's control once again without anyone noticing. Unlike the previous time when he only controlled Yagura Karatachi, this time Obito chose the entire top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village.

White Zetsu's disguise technique.

However, no advanced perception techniques in the ninja world can determine the authenticity of the ultimate wall-hanging existence.

The exact same appearance means the same chakra aura.

Who can tell the difference?

And now, the plan to control the Hidden Mist Village has finally reached the final step, as long as that old guy is successfully eliminated.

Obito can now easily use the vast power of the Hidden Mist Village.

And this time, there is no need to worry about being discovered or interrupted by anyone.

"It doesn't matter. It's the last step anyway. Just clean it up together."

Obito said in a calm tone.

The words were also filled with disdain.

Just some insects.

Obito wouldn't care.

Before, the Hidden Mist Village had been reintegrated, with a powerful figure like Mei Terumi and Aoki.

Obito was afraid that he would reveal too much and cause his plan to fail, because one's own family knows one's own business.

Obito doesn't think he is that strong.

Especially in the 48th year of Konoha, he was "taught a lesson" on the spot by his so-called teacher.

Obito has a very clear self-awareness in this regard.

Therefore, he would not show up and fight with others easily, which is why the fact that Karuta Yagura was controlled by illusion was exposed.

Obito had no intention of forcing a counterattack, and a brief disturbance was the biggest reason for his immediate withdrawal.

As long as Obito feels a greater threat and may affect the implementation of the Moon Eye Plan, Obito will give up after weighing the pros and cons.

But the Hidden Mist Village is different now.

The Hidden Mist Village, which had lost a large number of ninjas including Mei Terumi and Ao, no longer needed to be too alert. How could a ninja village that couldn't even produce a Kage-level strongman to support the scene still have the qualifications to be called a great power! ?
The Sand Village can now look down on the Mist Village.

At the very least, if Maki took Gaara and the two old guys Chiyo and Ebizo to the battlefield together.

The Hidden Mist Village is absolutely unstoppable.

In terms of high-end combat capability, you can have some gap, but you cannot have it completely.

Such a huge disparity in combat power will only make the battle one-sided.

"Let's go, it's time to put an end to this matter. The Hidden Mist Village will eventually fall under my control again!"

Obito smiled coldly.

"Buzz!"

All around, a slight but obvious spatial fluctuation spread out.

Obito's figure rushed in.

Black Zetsu on the side also smiled softly, then merged back into the underground and followed Obito's figure.
