The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

If the Uchiha were really that weak, the Anbu could wipe out the entire Uchiha clan countless times by simply throwing stones at them.

However, this was the Uchiha who was like this.

It was wiped out.

The official news released by Konoha is that one person was killed: Itachi Uchiha, a genius of the Uchiha clan, the son of the current Uchiha clan leader, who was only twelve or thirteen years old.

The only survivor was Sasuke Uchiha, the son of the Uchiha clan leader and Itachi Uchiha's younger brother.

This news shook the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Moreover, the news quickly spread throughout the entire ninja world, drawing the attention of other ninja villages to Konoha Village at that moment.

The disappearance of a powerful ninja clan would have a significant impact on Konoha.

This is something that all the major ninja villages are paying close attention to.

In particular, Iwagakure and Kumogakure have both increased their troop strength on the border, in case any excellent opportunity arises.

It is foreseeable that these two major ninja villages will not miss out.

After all, seven or eight years have passed since the Third Shinobi World War, and it seems that the major ninja villages are capable of starting a new round of Shinobi World War!

If Konoha gives us a chance.

Therefore, in the period of time to come...

It is clear that Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other high-ranking officials of Konoha must be on high alert and highly focused to deal with any possible tests or even the storm of war!

And none of this has anything to do with today's noodles!

Not to mention that he was very familiar with the original plot and knew that it was impossible for a new round of ninja war to break out during this period of time.

Even if it really erupts, so what!?

Would Konoha really send a seven-year-old Jinchuriki like him to the front lines?! He only needs to focus on his training.

The massacre of the Uchiha clan was something that only flashed through Menma's mind once before being automatically filtered out.

Erzhuzi might become a good partner or someone to be used in the future, but that's definitely not something to consider now.

The primary task is to make yourself stronger in the shortest amount of time!

Menma, no longer focusing on this matter, still steadily follows his established daily routine. Menma, who hasn't neglected either theory or practice, is performing far better than the 'Naruto Uzumaki' in the original work.

Menma yearns to absorb all knowledge. In the original work, Naruto grew purely through his own talent. It's not that 'Naruto Uzumaki' didn't work hard enough, but that the protagonist in the original timeline only relied on his talent to work hard.

It's like a giant walking on one leg.

Sesame flour is different!

He also doesn't miss any theoretical knowledge. It's just not shown in the original work. In fact, there is a lot of theoretical knowledge that a ninja needs to learn!

If we strictly follow the comprehensive evaluation criteria, Naruto Uzumaki would never graduate in his lifetime.

However, the most important thing for a ninja is ultimately 'individual skill'!

Other qualities and conditions still have to take a backseat!

Menma certainly understands the importance of different things, but given the ability, she hopes to develop herself in all aspects!

It makes the foundation more solid, isn't that a good thing?

Time flows by peacefully.

Sasuke Uchiha, the second young master of the Uchiha clan and the only survivor, returned to the school a week later.

This is completely different from before.

When Erzhuzi returned, he exuded an icy aura.

The extreme indifference that could be seen on his face.

This wasn't just a deliberate attempt to look cool; it was a genuine shift in mindset.

This is something that is inevitable.

Witnessing his most respected brother kill his father and mother and slaughter an entire ninja clan, if he could still remain calm, he would probably be considered mentally unstable!

'This is the cruelty of ninjas, Sasuke-kun, and this is only the first step in your life!'

Mianma looked at Erzhuzi, whose entire body was shrouded in an extremely gloomy atmosphere, with indifferent eyes, and thought to himself.

The Uchiha clan was wiped out.

It seems to be just a small ripple in the course of the ninja world's development.

This is clearly a crucial plot point for Konoha and the entire ninja world.

But it passed by slowly over time.

The initial surge of interest is gradually fading away.

Not only did few people in the ninja village pay attention to it anymore.

Even the other ninja villages in the ninja world gradually withdrew their attention.

Of course, this wouldn't have been possible without the efforts of Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other high-ranking members of Konoha!

But no matter what the process is like.

In the end, the story unfolded just like in the original work: the five great ninja villages did not engage in a new ninja war. There were many complex reasons for this, but the most crucial one was that Konoha did not appear too weak.

It seems to still be the number one ninja village that can overpower other countries!

While the various ninja villages were wary of Konoha's power, they also had to consider the intentions of their neighbors. Under such circumstances of mutual vigilance, they naturally missed the best opportunity to start a major war.

And these are the ripples in the ninja world.

As mentioned before.

Menma didn't care at all. Unless these ninja villages could start a major battle that would put Konoha in a huge predicament and even force them to the core of the ninja village, it would have nothing to do with Menma!

Mianma remained engrossed in his own cultivation.

At the end of Konoha's 55th year, the third academic year was about to begin.

Menma's own cultivation has also entered a brand new stage.

Chapter 14 Three-Body Technique

P.S.: Happy Lantern Festival!

And it was also in the period of more than a year, nearly two years.

Iruka has clearly changed his opinion of Masahiro, or to be more precise, this Iruka Umino is a genuinely gentle person, even though he clearly understands the difference between a Jinchuriki and a Tailed Beast.

He is also able to distinguish between the two emotions more easily than the average person.

Unlike the general public.

Facing a Jinchūriki is like facing a Tailed Beast – there is fear, rejection, and even disgust.

Living together day and night.

Menma could also sense the gradual shift in Iruka's attitude.

This also made Menma feel somewhat complicated.

Before this, aside from having a special feeling for Naruto's blood-related younger brother and a bit of a past-life bias towards Hinata, he had absolutely no goodwill towards anyone else in Konoha.

However, Iruka's change in attitude has made Menma feel a little 'restrained'. Of course, this is very likely one of Hiruzen Sarutobi's strategies, just like what he did himself.

The most important point that makes Menma's emotions complicated is that Menma can definitely sense Hiruzen Sarutobi's utilitarianism.

Unlike Iruka here.

What Mianma could feel was genuine sincerity.

They simply see themselves as a student, a student in a tragic situation who needs care.

Judging from all indications...

They can empathize with the situation as if it were their own.

Because they are all orphans!

This is also why Menma doesn't know what attitude he should have towards Iruka now, and especially in the future.

Ultimately, Mianma is not a truly cold-blooded being.

It's impossible to completely ignore other people's kindness.

We can only say we'll take it one step at a time and see what happens.

However, it's a good thing that Iruka is willing to pay more attention to interacting with Menma, at least Menma can get some private tutoring from Iruka.

Don't let Iruka's appearance as just a Chunin fool you.

However, it should be noted that those who can be promoted to Chunin in the ninja world are already considered to have a certain level of talent.

Not to mention that Iruka's ability to become a teacher at the Ninja Academy must mean he has a very solid foundation in theoretical knowledge.

The fact that Iruka can mentor many of the next generation of geniuses from the ninja clans, including Menma, Naruto, and Sasuke, is enough to prove his mentoring abilities.

Konoha is a large ninja village.

Why is it Iruka, and not someone else, who's in charge of Menma's class?! That already speaks volumes.

Therefore, Menma trusted Iruka completely in terms of basic training.

After seeing Menma's learning attitude and ability, Iruka was also willing to give Menma some extra guidance outside of class from time to time.

For example, the Three Body Techniques that ninjas need to master during their ninja academy training.

Logically, this should be taught to students in a later course.

However, one can learn to make dough in advance.

Menma is a great example of what a genius is, especially when there is no interference from the Nine-Tails' chakra.

In less than a week.

He mastered the Transformation Technique, Substitution Technique, and Clone Technique—the three most basic and important techniques for ninjas.
