The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

All that was left was a group of little guys standing there, wailing incessantly!

Menma also happened after Iruka left.

He walked away from the playground with a calm expression. In the past six years, Menma has not made any effort to get closer to anyone.

Erzhuzi is fine too.

Even my own foolish younger brother.

Or perhaps it's the other members of the Twelve Young Masters; Menma also maintains a respectful distance from them.

There were people who came up to talk to him.

Mianma responded with the most indifferent attitude.

His future is destined to be devoid of any suitable in-depth exchanges with these guys.

Unless some people can truly have a sudden awakening, and a complete and utter one at that.

But this is clearly wishful thinking.

and so.

Mianma will only firmly follow her own path.

other people?

He was just a passerby in my life.

One must either succeed or perish.

There will absolutely not be a third option, and even if there were, it wouldn't be the kind of option Menma would be willing to accept.

Menma's departure naturally attracted the attention of some classmates, but they were already used to it.

After all, when it comes to having a cold expression, Sasuke is definitely number one in the class, while Menma at least occasionally has a formulaic smile.

Therefore, these classmates at most felt that Menma's personality was a little aloof.

Only a very few individuals, such as Shikamaru, or some extremely sensitive girls, could perceive even a slight hint of the deeper sense of alienation hidden beneath Menma's outward appearance.

But these people won't say it.

They ignored or paid attention to what the students behind them were thinking.

Menma strode away, heading straight back to where she was, unlike her classmates who were looking forward to graduation.

For those with freckles.

The 60th anniversary of Konoha has arrived.

But that means the start of the original storyline!

Orochimaru's attack triggers Konoha's collapse plan!

Itachi Uchiha, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and others returned to Konoha.

And then there's the Akatsuki organization, which is about to officially begin its operations!

Among these people!

Each one of them could potentially become Menma's mortal enemy!

Chapter 19 Nine-Tails' Chakra

Menma felt an even greater sense of urgency than Sasuke.

His older brother wouldn't really hurt him, although Erzhuzi himself didn't know that, as he was still preoccupied with thoughts of revenge.

But sesame seeds are different.

The Nine-Tails inside me is a huge problem!

Konoha is fine too.

Akatsuki or whatever.

They will definitely keep a close eye on him.

He must acquire the ability to protect himself in the shortest possible time, and he also needs a relatively complete plan and a clear goal.

In recent years, he has gradually clarified his thoughts and his next steps.

The former is slightly more difficult.

Just staying in the ninja academy as a good student won't lead to any explosive growth; Menma has already been working very hard.

But in terms of pure individual strength, he might only be a Chunin right now?

What's the point of being the king of a bunch of kids?

His enemies are those who stand atop the pyramid of the ninja world.

This doesn't even include Black Zetsu and Obito lurking in the shadows, or Madara waiting in the Pure Land.

Oh.

And then there's the Rabbit Goddess, who has been on the moon for a millennium.

These enemies are all more terrifying and exaggerated than the last.

How can someone with a numb face relax their mind?

He was also eager to graduate as soon as possible, but his reason for graduating was different from everyone else's.

'Kurama, tell me, with my current physical condition, how much of your tail's chakra could I withstand?'

Menma walked home with a calm expression, but in his inner world, a spiritual entity formed and directly asked the Nine-Tails, who was lazily lying on the ground.

"Now? Hmph, at most, it's just the chakra of three tails!"

Nine-Tails opened its eyes, glanced sideways at Menma, and snorted softly, speaking with a hint of disdain.

Since that meeting in Konoha in early 55.

Over the next five to six years...

Menma would occasionally enter the spiritual world within his body to chat with Kurama, and as they chatted, their understanding and acquaintance deepened.

Of course, this also brought more questions.

This refers to the Nine-Tailed Fox's one-sided view.

He discovered that Menma was indeed shrouded in mystery.

Not only did he know his name, but he also knew the names of the other eight tailed beasts. He didn't mention Hashirama Senju or Madara Uchiha, but he also seemed to be subtly implying that he knew about things from a thousand years ago.

This was enough to truly shake the Nine-Tails.

Menma definitely didn't reveal everything he knew, nor did he intend to expose his 'true identity'.

I just wanted to tell Nine-Tailed Fox in this way.

He is special.

It is very special.

They were so special that even the Tailed Beasts had to treat them differently.

This is also the approach that Menma, after careful consideration, believes is the easiest way to gain Kurama's 'trust'.

In fact, this approach is indeed very effective.

If you ask whether Kurama truly accepted Menma, the answer is definitely no.

However, Menma had already truly seeped into the heart of Kurama, forcing this thousand-year-old fox demon to take Menma's existence seriously, not to mention that the exchange conditions Menma had proposed were very tempting.

A combination of factors.

This is what created the special relationship between Menma and Kurama.

Much earlier than in the original story, Menma is now able to borrow the power of the Nine-Tails, but he has never actually used it. The reason is simple: he is still under surveillance. Even though Hiruzen Sarutobi isn't watching him 24 hours a day, don't forget, there are other Anbu members around.

Menma didn't want to reveal that she could use the Nine-Tails' power too early.

Although there is no direct verbal evidence in the original work, it can be inferred that the surveillance by the Dark Division was canceled after he officially graduated.

After all, the person leading the team is none other than Kakashi Hatake.

If a situation arises that even Kakashi can't handle, and a few Anbu members can't do much, then Hiruzen Sarutobi would naturally just cancel the Anbu's monitoring and protection mission.

If nothing unexpected happens in this lifetime.

Menma will truly gain 'freedom' after graduating next year.

We still need to be patient for now.

Therefore, Menma cannot truly determine the upper limit of how much Nine-Tails chakra his current physical strength can withstand.

Let's set aside the fact that he can't even be considered to be in complete harmony with the Nine-Tails right now. Even if he were to reach that level, he still wouldn't be able to bear what he can't bear.

The power of the tailed beasts isn't so easy to use.

'Is it limited to three tails? That's still a bit insufficient.'

Menma frowned upon hearing Kurama's words and murmured to himself.

The chakra of the three tails should be enough to sweep through the Jonin level, but it would still be insufficient against the Kage level. Menma's bottom line is that he can withstand the chakra of the Nine-Tails' four or even five tails before the Chunin Exams.

In that case, he could truly be said to have the ability to protect himself.

"Hmph, saying it has three tails is just my optimistic view. You've never used my chakra even once, so who knows how well you've adapted to it! If your consciousness is corrupted by the malice in the chakra, hmph, then even I won't be able to help you."

Nine-Tails raised its eyelids and looked at Menma with a tone that seemed to be full of disdain.

Mianma was taken aback at first, then slowly nodded.

That's absolutely true.

Even without the Nine-Tails' conscious control, the Nine-Tails' chakra can still be generated.

Its corrosive power is still quite exaggerated.

This refers not only to the physical erosion, but more importantly to the spiritual aspect.
