The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

Maki then unleashed a lightning-fast wind-based slash.

They forcibly blocked Kakashi's path.

The reason they kept their distance earlier was because they believed Shukaku's power was enough to eliminate Kakashi and the others, and also because Gaara had already used the Sleep Technique. Once Shukaku's consciousness appeared, it wouldn't care who was a Sand Ninja or a Konoha Ninja; it would attack indiscriminately. Therefore, Maki and the others naturally had to spread out.

Now, seeing the One-Tailed Beast threatened, even though he doesn't recognize Might Guy, the powerful chakra aura emanating from it, and the attack that sent the One-Tailed Beast flying just now, are enough to prove that this is a formidable character.

With such a powerful opponent already facing off against their One-Tailed Beast, Maki cannot allow Sharingan Kakashi to get involved as well.

One-Tail is a crucial fighting force in this plan.

There can't be any problems!

"Peng!!"

Chapter 123 Ridiculous Mutual Understanding (Third Update)

The two are now facing off again.

This time, it was Maki's turn to hold off Kakashi. After all, from Maki's perspective, even if the Konoha ninja who blasted away the One-Tail was very strong, the One-Tail from their Sunagakure village would ultimately win. All he had to do was hold off the others and prevent the One-Tail from being surrounded.

The same applies to Fushigi, Kankuro, Temari, and others sitting to the side.

Gaara has already successfully transformed into a tailed beast, so they shouldn't get too close. Facing other Konoha ninjas is the best course of action.

The figures lunged forward in unison.

Inside the venue, the Sand Village and Konoha Village ninjas, who had been forcibly separated because of Shukaku, were once again locked in battle.

Instead, it happened at the same time.

"whoosh"

Genma and Naruto each leaped forward, barely managing to reach the two sides of the high wall, sandwiching Menma in the middle.

"Come back, Men... no, brother, there must be some misunderstanding here. After everything is over, let's go find Grandpa Third Hokage and Grandpa Jiraiya together, okay? They'll definitely give us a proper explanation!"

Naruto stared intently at Menma, his eyes filled with a sincere and intense pleading. Even though Naruto had long been accustomed to living alone at home for twelve years, and had many people who cared for him in this life, when he walked down the street and saw other people his age with real families, while he returned home to a life of solitude, Naruto had fantasized more than once about having a real family to live with.

And now.

Standing in front of him was his own brother, born of the same mother!

How could Naruto not be moved and tremble at this?!

Others may not have noticed.

Menma was shouting those words in front of Kakashi, Genma, and Naruto.

Besides being greatly shocked, Naruto also felt an indescribable joy deep inside.

'I have an older brother? My closest older brother? A true brother from the same parents?'

This reality truly brought Naruto the deepest level of joy on a spiritual level.

Otherwise, why would Naruto be so fixated on Sasuke in the original story?

Isn't that because Naruto treats Sasuke like a brother?

Even Sasuke is like this.

In this life, facing Menma, who is his true blood brother, Naruto's attitude will only be more resolute.

He didn't want to be at odds with his brother.

"Come back? You're really stupid, Naruto."

Menma looked at Naruto with utter disappointment.

Are they unwilling to take the opposite side?

Menma used to think the same way. Back then, he was still naive and full of fantasies, but his subsequent experiences taught him that those were all unrealistic ideas.

What he did, the path he chose to take.

It was destined that he would go against Naruto's path.

From that night onward, Menma's resolve remained unchanged.

The path he is about to take.

Even if it meant getting their hands stained with blood, they would never turn back.

"boom!"

Menma's Nine-Tails chakra erupted even more, its chakra cloak turning increasingly crimson, and its chakra tail faintly manifesting.

This aura was enough to make ninjas below the rank of Jonin tremble.

When Genma saw this scene, his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Naruto, let's subdue Menma first. He's not calm enough right now; he's clearly been manipulated. We can't let this go any longer!"

With a cold and stern expression, Genma Shiranui quickly uttered these words.

He leaped forward.

It was also a preemptive attack launched against the opponent.

For a special Jonin like Genma Shiranui.

There was indeed guilt, but it was not much, and it was only for a brief moment, for the sake of the village and the safety of the people.

Genma Shiranui believed that the best course of action was to prioritize subduing Menma.

We can't let Mianma go berserk here!

Furthermore, we cannot allow Menma's identity to be so easily spread during this period, especially as an enemy of the village.

This is the biggest scandal in Konoha.

"As expected, they're all birds of a feather."

Looking at Genma Shiranui, who was rapidly closing in on him.

Mianma gave a cold laugh, a hint of mockery appearing in his already revealed crimson fox eyes.

"boom!"

With a single step.

The figure flipped up.

He pulled out a kunai directly from the lower side.

"Clang!"

From the front, it easily blocked Genma's attack, the arm that was forcefully swung.

"Whoosh!"

A powerful force that ripples outwards.

"!?"

Genma's arms trembled uncontrollably, and he was forced to retreat. At this moment, Genma looked at Menma with a look of horror.

Although we know that Menma can already make some use of the Nine-Tails' chakra, he should not be regarded as a genin. The speed he showed when he kicked Naruto away earlier already speaks volumes.

But after a personal confrontation.

Genma still felt that he had underestimated Menma.

Such reaction speed, such speed, such power.

That's already comparable to a regular Jonin, right?

Genma's expression was very serious.

But if Genma knew that this was still the result of Menma holding back—no, it should be said that he let the sea go—he would definitely question his existence.

The reason Menma didn't unleash more Nine-Tails chakra wasn't because he was soft-hearted. For Menma now, soft-heartedness was simply not in his vocabulary. It was just because Menma felt that this level was enough to deal with the people in front of him. Of course, there was also the reason that he didn't want to attract too much attention.

The main stage should still be handed over to Orochimaru, and let the Sand Ninja perform.

Menma was even prepared to immediately retreat if she sensed Jiraiya's chakra approaching.

He must be cautious and careful in everything he does now.

Just as Menma forced Genma back, he was about to get close and exert pressure.

In the back position.

A whooshing sound followed.

"Whoosh!"

Naruto's golden figure flashed by.

Mianma raised an eyebrow.

Turn to the side and tilt your head.

The fist was easily dodged.

Then straighten your arms.
