"Well!?"

A powerful sealing technique applied from above.

It also directly imprisoned the chakra of the four elders.

When Mianma heard Wuwei's words and saw Wuwei's actions, a deep joy appeared in the depths of his eyes.

But it vanished quickly after only a second.

Human nature is actually very vulnerable to testing.

Especially that kind of relationship after just getting to know each other.

But Menma had no choice. If he wanted to quickly solve the problem of Kusagakure, he had to choose a starting point, and inaction was the only option.

Even those with hemp skin must choose to believe in non-action.

'I hope you are a person who is true to your word, Wuwei-san!'

Menma took a deep breath and thought to himself.

"I'll leave those four to you. Now proceed according to the established plan, Wuwei-san. Time is of the essence!"

Mianma nodded, and then continued.

"Yes, Lord Menma, I understand. I will go and make the arrangements immediately."

The first time might not be so smooth.

But the second time will seem much more natural.

Mianma has reason to make extra preparations; it's impossible for him to completely trust in inaction.

But Wuwei was truly willing to submit to Mianma.

This was partly to repay Menma's kindness in saving his son, but also because Wuwei had long been disappointed with Kusagakure.

Whether it's the village faction or the city faction.

Those unchanging rules.

That environment was like stagnant water.

All of this caused Wuwei to lose all enthusiasm for the village. The death of his son Wugou eight years ago was a direct wake-up call for Wuwei.

There's no point in continuing like this in this village.

therefore.

Wuwei is truly willing to follow Mianma and bring about change to this village!

Chapter 272 Next Step

After the four elders were captured.

Wuwei simply threw them into the dungeon and sent his most trusted subordinates to guard them. This was not what Menma wanted to see, but he was also satisfied with it. It sounds contradictory, but that's the truth.

From a general perspective, Menma would certainly like to see these four troublesome elders get rid of quickly. However, from a human perspective, if Wuwei could so easily and ruthlessly kill four senior companions with whom he had known each other for a long time, Menma would feel disheartened.

They were imprisoned.

That's the best approach.

This can also make Mianma feel more at ease about Wuwei.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that inaction is also just an act.

But if that's the outcome, then Mianma will accept it. No one can truly be thorough and comprehensive in everything.

All Mianma can do is try her best to achieve the results she wants.

The four elders were captured.

Then.

Wuwei also directly unleashed all its power.

A comprehensive cleanup was carried out on the entire Hozuki Castle. All the grass ninjas who belonged to the loyal faction of the four elders were captured. In this process, except for a small number of grass ninjas who resisted to the end and even took a suicidal stance, the rest were mainly captured alive.

Karin, Suigetsu, and the others whom Menma had sent out in advance were also with those Taki ninja near Hozuki Castle.

With the help of the grass ninjas dispatched by the Wuwei Bureau, a barrier was constructed that was not very strong, but was enough to intercept most ordinary ninjas.

To prevent accidents from happening to the greatest extent possible.

"All those not from our headquarters have been imprisoned, and as you requested, we have sent people to the village to deliver the message."

Ghost Lantern City.

Inside the city lord's private office.

Wuwei stood on one side.

He reported softly to Menma, who was standing at the window gazing at the distant scenery.

"Very good. Then please, Mr. Wuwei, keep the situation under control here at Hozuki Castle for the time being. When the appointed time comes, we will travel together to Kusagakure!"

Mianma turned around, looked at Wuwei, and said with a smile.

First, they subdued the group of grass ninja from the castle faction.

Then exploit the conflict between the village faction and the city faction.

They deliberately misled the village faction's attention.

The opening of the Box of Bliss was used to prompt the leader of Kusagakure to make the 'correct' judgment.

Menma's goal is to successfully eliminate a group of the loyal followers of that Grass Village leader in the wild, so that it will be much easier to take over Grass Village afterward.

Ideally, the leader of Kusagakure should personally lead the team; that would be the best possible outcome.

Of course, this is something that Mianma (a person's name) cannot control.

"Are you sure you don't need me to send someone to accompany you? Although there's no definite information yet, based on my understanding of Masashi Mota (the current leader of Kusagakure), he will definitely send his most trusted elite forces. At that time, it's possible that..."

Wuwei seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking.

However, he hadn't finished speaking.

Menma waved his hand gently to interrupt: "After all, it's still just a ninja village. It's not appropriate for you to get involved too much, especially in that kind of situation. It's even harder to stop now. If too much blood is shed, it will be harder to carry out the next plan. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. As for Hozuki Castle, you still need to pay more attention to it, Muwei-san. It's not just about internal issues, but also about keeping an eye on external forces. You can't ignore them at all. Once everything is going smoothly for me, I'll need you to step in and appease those people!"

"Yes, I understand. Please rest assured, Lord Menma."

Wuwei seemed to have fully adapted to his current role, and immediately bowed and replied as soon as Mianma finished speaking.

"Others may not be suitable, but I should be able to, Lord Menma. My power can lend you a hand!"

Wu Gou, who had been standing silently on the right, suddenly spoke up.

Wuwei was slightly taken aback.

After an initial moment of surprise, Menma shook his head slightly and said, "It's not suitable for you to attack now, Wugou-kun. The power of enlightenment is very strong. You've only just adapted to it, and your suppression of consciousness isn't yet complete. You need to adapt for a longer period of time, or even return to the Box of Bliss and undergo several baptisms before you can use this power. Otherwise, if you mishandle it, you'll lose control again, and that would truly be a loss!"

It can be said that Wugou is now the strongest fighter on Menma's side besides himself. Whether it is Utakata or Fu, they would both seem a little strained when facing Wugou after he transforms into Satoru.

Judging from the portrayal in the original work.

It's no exaggeration to say that Go possesses strength comparable to the Eight-Tails.

But that's also why.

Immaculate cannot easily use this power.

This is the power of the Box of Bliss.

Once Immaculate is used, it will definitely be further affected by the Box of Bliss. In normal mode, Immaculate has to constantly withstand the assimilation effect of the Box of Bliss. Therefore, before Immaculate can further adapt to the Box of Bliss, Immaculate must not use the power of Enlightenment.

This is one of the key combat forces supporting Menma's future plan.

We can't do anything reckless.

"Yes, I understand, Lord Menma."

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Gou slowly nodded and said.

Unlike Wuwei, he was still a person with a heavy heart.

Wugou is still the kind of simple-minded boy. Even though he knows very well that Menma's help has its own agenda, the fact that he was saved is undeniable, and Wugou still acknowledges this kindness.

Moreover, Wugou always had a feeling that if it weren't for Mianma, not only would she not be able to be reborn, but her father might not have met a good end either.

This kindness deserves to be repaid with everything I can!

"Then let's proceed according to plan!"

Mianma smiled and nodded.

"Yes, Lord Menma."

Both Wuwei and Wugou, father and son, bowed in unison.

"Ok!"

Immediately afterwards.

"Whoosh!"

Menma then swayed and left the spot, heading towards the outside of Ghost Lantern Castle.

The first phase of the plan has been successfully carried out, and the next step is the more important second phase.

Menma wants to eliminate all opponents of Kusagakure in the shortest possible time and bring the village's power under his rule.

Even if it's a very difficult one, it doesn't matter.

Only by integrating the strength of the two ninja villages can he have the confidence to face Konoha, Kumogakure, and other ninja villages in future confrontations.

It's not about relying solely on one person or a small group of people.

Menma doesn't just want to survive, or to have a future like Obito and Madara.

The future he wanted was the truly peaceful future he himself longed for!
