Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 515: Smart People's Intuitive Judgment (Happy New Year's Eve!)

PS: On New Year’s Eve, I wish all my book friends a happy family reunion and all their wishes come true!
Avoid unpleasant things from happening.

Of course, I am referring to the pointless resistance in the Hidden Leaf Village.

Menma's patience towards his enemies has always been limited, or it should be said that his only patience is given to Naruto, who is blessed by his parents. He has repeatedly let go of Naruto, who is against him, which is really the result of Menma's tolerance.

Of course, this is also related to Naruto’s own attitude.

Whenever Jiraiya dies.

If Naruto really wanted to kill Menma, Menma would definitely not let Naruto go. He has no brotherly feelings for Naruto. He lets Naruto go again and again just for the sake of his parents in this life.

As I said before, we must acknowledge the grace of life.

This is also Menma’s last kindness.

Where are the rest of the enemies!?
Those who resist die.

Menma's attitude is so clear.

Shikaku also took it to heart.

This is a man who absolutely does what he says.

Shikaku took a deep breath, nodded heavily and said, "I understand what you mean. Everything will be as you wish."

There's nothing to resist.

There is no need to worry about dignity or anything like that.

Only when people survive are they qualified to talk about other things.

Not to mention that the other party was only relatively polite in asking for their cooperation. Even if they made some relatively excessive requests, as long as it did not really endanger the survival of the clan, Lu Jiu would agree.

He is the head of the Nara clan.

It is necessary to consider everyone in the clan.

"Haha, I knew that Shikaku-san would make the right choice. Then, I'll leave Haiyi-san, Dingzuo-san, and Zhiwei-san to you, Shikaku-san. Enough blood has been shed."

Menma smiled slightly and spoke softly with a hint of warning.

At that moment, Shikaku's heart tightened slightly, but on the surface he remained calm and nodded, saying, "I understand, please rest assured."

"Well, then..."

"Lord Tianying, there is urgent news!"

Just when Menma was about to say something.

Suddenly, a hurried voice was heard from outside the door.

"Huh? Come in."

Menma frowned slightly and shouted out the words.

"Squeak!"

next second.

Ajun strode in from outside the door.

His face was obviously tense and shocked. He handed a scroll to Menma and said, "This is an invitation letter from the Hidden Leaf Village. It invites you to a meeting. It is sent in the name of the First and Second Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village."

One could even clearly hear a hint of fear in the words.

For ordinary ninjas.

The reputation of the first Hokage of Konohagakure - Hashirama Senju - is really too great.

God of Ninja!
That was a title recognized by everyone in the ninja world at that time.

As a veteran Taki ninja who is nearly fifty years old, Ajun grew up listening to the stories of the first Hokage when he was young.

Now, suddenly hearing that the Hidden Leaf Village had sent out an invitation in the name of the First Hokage, it was impossible for Ah Jun to calm down.

This is the man who single-handedly conquered the entire ninja world and pacified the troubled times.

"Senju Hashirama?"

Menma raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of surprise.

Lu Jiu, who was sitting next to him, suddenly changed his expression, and an expression of extreme shock and confusion appeared in his pupils.

But it only took less than a second.

"The Impure World Reincarnation Technique!"

Whether it was Menma or Shikaku, the same name of the technique appeared in their minds.

Only relative to Shikaku.

Menma knows a little more.

He was very clear about the side effects of the Shiki Fuujin jutsu. If he wanted to bring out the first, second, and third generations of people into the Impure World, he had to eliminate the side effects of the Shiki Fuujin jutsu, and this was not something that ordinary people could do.

"It can't be that Orochimaru secretly resurrected to help Konoha, right?"

Such a thought suddenly popped up in Menma's mind.

Orochimaru has the cursed seal. Unless all the marks on Orochimaru's soul are completely erased, this guy is almost immortal.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that in the original work it was Sasuke who resurrected Orochimaru.

But Menma believed that it was just a coincidence that Sasuke needed Orochimaru's help. Orochimaru must have a backup plan. Dying so easily was not Orochimaru's style.

Therefore, Menma had sufficient reasons to suspect that it was Orochimaru's doing.

It couldn't be that Tsunade, Mitomon En and the others had such abilities, right? Menma didn't believe it. He would rather believe that there were other people helping Konoha.

"Haha, that's really interesting. Just reply and say that I agree to the invitation. Let the other party decide the location and time. Just consider it as my respect for the seniors in the ninja world."

Menma said without hesitation.

Before landing on the moon, Menma already had the strength to fight against Hashirama Senju. Whether he would win or not is another matter, but at least they were on the same level. Needless to say now, this could not be considered a big trouble at all.

It can be said to be a very good opportunity.

If the first generation Hokage could be suppressed forcefully in front of countless people, it would be enough to completely break down the psychological defenses of everyone in the Hidden Leaf Village.

A battle!
Solve all problems.

Menma thought this was actually a good thing.

Between Thousand Arms Pillars.

That is the belief of the Hidden Leaf Village.

"The time and place have already been decided. It's in the scroll. It says it will be in the Valley of the End in three days."

Seeing Menma's nonchalant demeanor, Ah Jun was startled at first, but for some reason, the restlessness in his heart gradually calmed down, and when he heard Menma's words, he immediately replied.

"Oh? Three days later, in the Valley of the End?"

Menma's eyes revealed a hint of surprise, and he subconsciously opened the scroll, and saw that it was clearly a greeting narrated in the voice of the first Hokage, as well as the time and place of the meeting at the end. And the last sentence "Everything is for the peace of the ninja world, I hope Mr. Tianying will do me the honor."

This also made Menma's eyes reveal a silent smile.

This really is the style of the first Hokage.

What is revealed between the lines is the desire to resolve all disputes peacefully with Menma. If it were anyone else, Menma would definitely suspect that there was some trick going on. But if it was the First Hokage who could kneel down in front of his enemy to show his sincerity, Menma would completely trust his sincerity.

"But we still have to be on guard against that Senju Tobirama."

The face of Tobirama also appeared in Menma's mind.

This guy is undoubtedly a dark master in the ninja world, one of the highest level. Compared with him, Danzo is like one in heaven and the other on earth. Danzo claims every day that he has perfectly inherited the will of his mentor, but in fact the gap is not small.

Especially in terms of strength and means.

To say that Danzo is the ultimate degraded version of Tobirama is already a compliment to him.

At least within Menma's knowledge.

Tobirama is the most outstanding leader in the thousand-year history of ninja. His methods of dealing with both external and internal affairs are superb. His personal strength is second only to Hashirama and Madara. In terms of the ability to research and develop ninjutsu, no one can match him.

Hashirama's words can be trusted 100%.

But if you count Tobirama.

Menma will have to think about this a little bit. Being strong is one thing, and being cautious is another. Even someone as strong as Kaguya had repeated failures when fighting against two children who were weaker than her, as well as Naruto and Sasuke. Menma doesn't think that he can be a match for that group of old guys with his scheming and tricks, especially those at Tobirama's level.

Caution is the boat.

"Haha, then go ahead and reply. There is no problem. I agree to meet with this first-generation Hokage. However, Jun, the necessary preparations must continue. You should understand what I mean. No one can stop our Hidden Light Village. I believe that this first-generation Hokage can satisfy me a little bit."

Menma chuckled and casually threw the scroll onto the table, speaking in a steady and confident tone.

"Yes, Master Tianying."

Ah Jun was also infected by Mian Ma's aura. His face became serious, and he suddenly lowered his head and responded loudly.

The previous excitement, the previous uneasiness, and the previous fear of gain and loss were all swept away at this moment.

Fifteen-year-old shadow.

A shadow who defeated the five major ninja villages and gathered all nine tailed beasts at the age of fifteen.

If even such a leader is not worthy of trust and following, who else is worth looking forward to! ?
At this moment, Ajun also felt ashamed of his previous hesitation.

Their family's shadow is not just bragging.

Instead, he proves himself with brilliant achievements time and time again.

What they should do most is to support and follow their young Lord Tianying with the most determined heart.

"Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju? Haha, we can really come up with some interesting side shows. Shikaku-san won't change his mind after hearing the names of these two, right? Oh, I don't mind giving Shikaku-san some more time to think about it."

After the Ajun left.

Menma turned his head and looked at Shikaku, who seemed to have regained his composure at some point while sitting on the sofa at the side, and said something meaningful.

Hearing this, Shikaku's heart couldn't help but tighten. It must be said that the moment he heard the news, Shikaku's heart was indeed shaken. As a person from another village, Ajun would be troubled by the name of Senju Hashirama. As a ninja from the most orthodox Konohagakure Village and a staunch supporter of the Hokage lineage, Shikaku would be even more disturbed by the title of the first Hokage.

But Shikaku is not an ordinary person after all.

Only after the initial hesitation.

Lu Jiu quickly adjusted his mindset and quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

The first thing that came to mind was naturally whether his own first-generation Hokage could defeat Menma. After comprehensive judgment, Shikaku's answer in his heart was no, although with his personal level of strength, it was difficult to judge the strength above the Kage level.

Don’t even mention the six levels.

Even if it was a duel between Jiraiya, who had mastered fairy arts, and Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan and had already entered the super-shadow level, it was impossible for Shikaku to understand it.

But this does not prevent Lu Jiu from making corresponding judgments.

On the battlefield, before being knocked unconscious by Menma, the strength displayed by Menma, as well as the powerful performances of Muque and Toneri, had already been deeply imprinted in Shikaku's heart. Although he did not witness it with his own eyes later, he learned from his captured companions how exaggerated Might Guy's performance was when he opened the Eight Gates Formation.

that's it.

Menma still managed to stand until the end.

Can our first Hokage in his prime be compared to Menma?
Shikaku's judgment was impossible, not to mention what kind of ninjutsu in his own ninja village could summon back the dead First Hokage. Shikaku knew it all.

What else could it be besides Impure World Reincarnation!?

The limitations of this technique had already been fully demonstrated by Orochimaru three years ago. Shikaku certainly believed that their Lady Tsunade would not waste her efforts, and perhaps there would indeed be some unexpected developments.

The probability of turning defeat into victory cannot be said to be completely zero.

But it is infinitely close to 0.

This is not a particularly rigorous research or judgment, but rather a somewhat predictive judgment on the part of Lu Jiu himself.

This is totally not Shikaku's usual style.

At least this time, Shikaku suddenly felt that he could be more sincere, especially when he made eye contact with Menma just now.

Lu Jiu's heart was shocked.

People really don't care about the first Hokage of their Konohagakure Village.

Without any reason, just this one look made Shikaku's slightly wavering heart completely firm.

This may seem outrageous.

But it was at that moment that Shikaku made up his mind because of Menma's look.

Subjective idealism in the full sense of the word.

It's today.

Lu Jiu has to rely on his own intuition to make a judgment that will have a huge impact on himself and their three tribes of Pig, Deer and Butterfly!
"No need. As I said before, I, Nara Shikaku, will obey all orders from Lord Tenkage on behalf of the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans!"

Shikaku stood up, took a deep breath, knelt on one knee and saluted with a very serious look.

He has tried his best.

Be it for loyalty or for kindness.

He has already fought for it, and now he has to consider his family and friends.

The Konoha ship is already sinking.

All you need to do now is stop the loss in time.

This is a decisive tone.

This also made Menma's mouth curl up, revealing a very satisfied smile.

"Hahahaha, you are worthy of being Lu Jiu-san. Very good. Believe me, you will not regret your decision today, Lu Jiu-san. The situation is on my side. Everything I said before will come true!!"
