The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

Page 171

Shibuki was completely bewildered.

He simply couldn't understand what was happening before his eyes, nor could he comprehend the words of Mizuno Satoru and Menma.

What do you mean by "life in danger"?

I don't get it at all.

But the only thing Shibuki knew was that the Accelerator in front of him definitely had a special intention. His muscles were tense all over, and he clenched the kunai in his palm even tighter.

"Yifang-kun? I was unable to meet you in person last time, which was my fault. Since you have come in this way, it must be something very important."

Mizuno Satoru, having served under three leaders of Takigakure, saw through Menma's intentions almost immediately.

Although it's not 100% certain.

But considering what Menma just said, and some things I had guessed,

Mizuno Satoru's expression at this moment was also very confident.

"Yes, my purpose in coming here is just as Elder Wu guessed. Oh, there's no need to rush right now, because I spent a little time holding off Shuiyan. At least we should have an hour or two before launching the formal attack. Elder Wu, you don't need to worry too much."

"I look at you with a smile," Máo said.

"Hookah? You're connected to hookah!?"

Mizuno Satoru hadn't said anything yet.

Shibuki jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on.

The dangerous look that appeared on his face indicated that he was about to make a move.

"Shibuki! Calm down!"

Mizuno Satoru, who was in the back, shouted loudly.

It was also because of using too much force.

"Cough cough..."

It involves his own hidden injuries.

His face turned pale instantly, and he began to cough violently.

At this moment.

Shibuki, disregarding his embarrassment, quickly turned around and helped Mizuno Satoru.

"Grandpa Wu? Are you alright?"

This is clearly another unqualified performance.

Mianma couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

"Lord Shibuki, there's no need to be in such a hurry. I do have contact with Mizuki. In fact, I should say that Mizuki has contact with Amegakure in addition to me. Mizuki has been scheming to kill you and seize the position of leader of Takigakure. Even Fu, whom you trust the most, was persuaded by Mizuki."

Mianma spoke calmly, maintaining his usual steady tone.

"Impossible! How could Fu be persuaded by hookah? You're lying!"

Hearing Mianma's words.

Shibuki's expression suddenly changed, his gaze fixed on Menma, and his voice instantly rose in volume.

And it was at this very moment.

Shemu seemed to understand, to some extent, what his grandfather Wu had meant.

But the more this is the case, the more...

The more Muku did this, the less willing he was to believe it.

"Oh, I misspoke. I should say I was deceived by the hookah."

Menma raised an eyebrow slightly, completely unconcerned by Shibuki's murderous expression, and slowly spoke.

"Deception? Huh?"

"Yes, it is deception, and the focus is on Elder Wu. Do you understand what I mean?"

Mianma said softly.

Chapter 209 Explicit Attitude

"Sigh, Shibuki, to put it simply, you were tricked by that girl Fu. Of course, Shuiyan was also involved. That day, Fu asked you how I was doing, and your answer was the most fatal mistake. If you had told Fu the truth about my situation, she wouldn't have been deceived. Others may not know my situation, but surely Shuiyan does?"

If Mizuno Satoru was merely speculating before, Menma's words after his appearance completely confirmed his thoughts.

And it has come to this point.

If Shibuki still doesn't understand, then he's not just simple-minded, he's brain-dead.

"Is that so?"

Shibuki stood frozen in place, truly not expecting such a detail.

"That means Fu's subsequent reports were all false. Ah Jun and the others are in danger!!"

Previously unthinkable, but now all the information is out in the open and can be directly linked together, and Shibuki's expression has become extremely frightening.

"No, I need to send people to meet Ah Jun and the others immediately!"

Just as Shibuki showed a look of anxiety and was about to rush out the door, he realized what was happening.

"You damn fool, I told you to calm down, can't you calm down?!"

Seeing that Shibuki still looked so flustered.

Mizuno Satoru was truly disappointed in Mizuno, and at this moment, he unusually scolded him with a hint of anger.

"!?"

This is Shibuki, who was frightened again.

He subconsciously stopped in his tracks, looking at Mizuno Satoru with a timid expression: "Grandpa Satoru, I..."

The mouth was open, but no one knew what to say.

"Hehe, Lord Shibuki, there's no need to rush. I have people here to meet those Takigakure ninja you sent out. Besides, Suien-san's target has always been you, so there shouldn't be any major problems with the safety of your subordinates. The key now is still your own safety, Lord Shibuki."

Mianma said softly.

"Shuiyan has already led a lot of people to Takigakure Village, but you don't have any defense forces with you right now."

"How could there not be? The village still has them..."

Without a second thought, Shibuki was about to directly refute him.

For a moment, it was as if he had thought of something, and his words caught in his throat.

"Have you thought it through, Lord Shibuki? Do you really think the remaining people in your Takigakure village will stand by your side? Of course, if Elder Satoru intervenes, there won't be a problem. But if even Elder Satoru can't intervene, based on the rumors circulating in the village before, heh, Lord Shibuki, do you think the remaining people are neutral? Or neutral? Or to put it bluntly, are they directly..."

Mianma narrowed his eyes slightly, his words still unfinished.

Even a simple wood note can be easily detected by ear.

"So that's how it is? So that's how it is? That's really a clever method, hookah..."

This situation seems obvious at first glance.

A look of despair appeared on Shibuki's face.

It's as if you can see your own death in the act.

Mianma subconsciously shook his head inwardly.

What kind of clever trick is this? While it's not the most basic one, it's certainly not particularly sophisticated either. If you fell for it, it's simply because you're not very bright.

Mianma couldn't help but complain inwardly.

Or perhaps it should be said that if Elder Mizuno Satoru were in better health, this problem wouldn't have occurred. After all, Shibuki's prestige wasn't high, but Mizuno Satoru could definitely intimidate the entire ninja village. As long as Mizuno Satoru could step forward, everyone else in the village, including Fu, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, would all stand on Shibuki's side.

Hookah, of course, could not possibly cause any ripples.

While the situation in the original story is certainly different from now, Suigan definitely used similar methods. Otherwise, why would the leader of Takigakure need Konoha ninja as bodyguards? Where were all the other Takigakure ninjas while they were engaged in fierce battle with the enemy?

Only this explanation is the most reasonable.

But this involves wood.

Yet, it remains Menma's favorite existence.

Shibuki is not a simple man; how could he possibly set his sights on Takigakure Village?

"Wataki!"

Mizuno Satoru, sitting nearby, could naturally see Shibuki's expression, which seemed to be completely giving up.

Disappointment once again showed in his pupils.

But now is an emergency.

Mizuno Satoru once again uttered those words in a stern voice.

It was as if Shibuki was instantly jolted awake.

"Is this the time for sentimentality?! Is it already time to give up?! How can you face the previous leader and your grandfather like this?!"

Mizuno Satoru said in a cold voice with a very stern expression.
