The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

But for non-action...

That's enough.

That's how trends sometimes emerge.

As long as he can nominally and openly maintain control over the ninja village, it will be meaningless even if Mota does come back alive.

"Okay, very good. Then, let's go into the village."

Wuwei nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards.

Surrounded by a crowd, and under the curious gaze of many ordinary people in the houses on both sides of the main road of Ninja Village, he was surrounded by a crowd.

Wuwei strode towards the location of the leader's building, which he had almost been able to take over more than a decade ago.

Time is of the essence.

There is a lot to do.

Wuwei dared not delay even for a moment.

Although Menma still doesn't fully trust Wuwei and his son Wugou, the two have completely accepted Menma and are willing to serve his cause. Even though they are not yet clear about all of Menma's plans and situation, they at least understand that the power of Kusagakure is a very important piece of the puzzle for Menma.

Both of them naturally hoped to ensure a smooth transition of power and avoid further damage to the village's vital forces.

Wuwei's triumphant return.

In the absence of Shigeda Saifumi.

There are really very few people in Kusagakure who can resist Wuwei.

A few years earlier, Kusagakure still had several elders with considerable prestige and seniority, who could have kept Wuwei in check.

But now, under a series of inactions.

Almost all the power, big and small, in Kusagakure fell into his control. Some stubborn elements attempted to resist, but were ruthlessly suppressed by Wuwei.

Those who deserve to be killed should be killed.

The checkpoint that should be checked.

In this respect, Wuwei shows absolutely no mercy.

Chapter 279 Gathering

The most forceful means and tough attitude must be used to ensure a smooth transition of power in Kusagakure. Wuwei has a very clear understanding of this. He has never been a soft-hearted person. Back then, he used any means necessary to open the Chest of Bliss. All his tenderness was reserved for his deceased wife and his son Wugou, who had just been "resurrected".

It is for this reason that Wuwei is willing to pledge allegiance to Mianma.

He still hopes that his son can be truly resurrected and regain his human form, but that really depends on Menma and others?

Unless they can come up with the corresponding bargaining chips.

Otherwise, the resolve to do nothing cannot be shaken in the slightest.

Faced with this domineering and inactive behavior, nearly half of the high-ranking people in Kusagakure chose to acquiesce, aside from those who had followed him from the beginning and those who resisted but were killed or imprisoned.

It doesn't mean that these people actually endorse non-action.

Instead, after assessing the situation, they chose to temporarily submit. They wanted to see what Wuwei would do next, and more importantly, they wanted to see if their rightful leader, Mota Saifumi, could return alive.

The former concerns whether one's own interests will be harmed, while the latter is the most important issue of stance. If Masashi Mota can really come back alive, then everything will be completely different. Masashi Mota has held the highest power in Kusagakure for nearly 20 years and still has considerable prestige in the village. It is hard to say what the situation will be like once Masashi Mota returns.

That's exactly what they were thinking.

Wuwei (non-action) also sees through everything; this is a perfectly normal situation. If everyone were willing to obey his orders 100%, it would be a different story.

That's the strangest thing, and the one we need to be most wary of.

It is precisely because of such complex human nature that humans are the most intelligent of all beings. While Wuwei was sending his trusted confidants to take control of the entire ninja village's security forces, he also immediately dispatched someone to contact Menma.

He needed to give Menma a detailed report on the situation here, and also inquire about Shigeda Masashi's fate, so that he could make arrangements for the next steps.

And it was around the time that the integration in Wuwei was completed and personnel were dispatched to leave the village and head north.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

Outside of Kusahaku Village.

Menma had already arrived at the main gate of the ninja village with Karin, Suigetsu, and the others, only a few hours after Muwei arrived.

This time discrepancy represents the time it took for Menma to set up the trap, encircle and annihilate Shigeda Saifumi, and finally for Yoshio to complete his work.

"Menma-sama!"

A figure striding away.

The grass ninja guarding the main gate had long been replaced by Muwei's most trusted subordinates, who naturally recognized Menma's face.

It was only when Mianma saw these people that he chose to enter through the main entrance.

This means that Wuwei has already successfully taken over Kusagakure according to the established plan.

The grass ninjas hurriedly came forward to greet Menma, bowing and greeting him. They were unaware of the true relationship between Menma and their master, Muwei, and simply assumed that Menma was a powerful ally invited by their master.

Even so.

Judging solely from the perspective of strength.

Mianma absolutely deserves their respect.

He's the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

They were beings that ordinary ninjas could not compare to.

"Hmm, is Wuwei Sang already in the village?"

Mianma paused slightly, a faint smile on his face, and asked softly.

"Yes, Lord Mianma, I have already sent someone to inform Lord Wuwei of your arrival. Please come in this way."

The purple-haired man leading the group spoke with a respectful expression, while also turning to the side in an inviting gesture.

"Ah."

Mianma nodded slightly.

Then, led by this man, they headed towards the location of the leader's building.

Along the way, the main street of Kusagakure was deserted, and all the houses and shops around were closed.

His brows furrowed slightly.

But it was immediately released.

This is a normal phenomenon.

With the village undergoing a major upheaval and the regime overthrown, how could ordinary people dare to go out? They were afraid of getting involved in some kind of battle. Infighting in the ninja village was practically a daily occurrence.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Kusagakure Village has been peaceful for over a decade.

However, there have been several internal conflicts within the ninja village in the past, which some of the older residents have personally experienced.

At least a day or two of observation is needed before life returns to normal, provided that nothing has actually happened and the higher-ups issue similar 'public notices'.

And this was on the way, before we even got close to the leader's building.

Wuwei had already appeared in front of Mianma with Wugou.

Completely ignoring the somewhat surprised looks from the other Grass Ninja, the father and son bowed to Menma in unison and said, "Lord Menma."

This is an attitude that is completely genuine.

Especially the direct use of the word 'sama'!

Not to mention the shock shown by the grass ninjas.

Even Mianma himself subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

Previously, Menma had predicted that the most optimistic scenario was that Wuwei would indeed be willing to obey his orders, but there would definitely still be some 'procedures' to go through, and some sensitive topics would definitely need to be discussed.

However, he also believed that as long as Wugou's problem was not completely resolved, and as long as he treated the father and son sincerely in the future, the situation would definitely develop in the direction he expected.

But now it seems...

It seems the situation is much better than I imagined?

Otherwise, it seems unnecessary for Wuwei to act this way, especially in front of so many Grass Ninja.

Karin and Suigetsu, who were standing on either side of Menma, both showed slightly strange expressions.

"Hehe, you're too kind, Wuwei-san. You've really had a hard time this time."

Mianma quickly stepped forward and said with a smile.

"No, this is all as it should be, Lord Menma, this way please."

Wuwei maintained the same expression he always had, stood to the side, and stretched out his hand as if to speak.

This seems to be an attitude and position that is to be made completely clear.

The other grass ninjas on both sides all looked like they wanted to say something but hesitated.

In particular, the purple-haired man who led the way and the blue-haired man who had returned to the village first to incite the other grass ninjas exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of worry in each other's eyes.

But under these circumstances...

Both of them could only remain silent.

All he could do was secretly think that if he had the chance, he would definitely ask his master, Wuwei, what exactly was going on.

They can't accept an outsider becoming the leader of Kusagakure.

They only recognize their own Lord Wuwei!
