The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

There's no doubt that Itachi completely fails to see through Menma.

At that moment, many thoughts surfaced in Itachi's mind, especially when his eyes met Menma's.

Itachi's expression also became even colder.

"Menma-kun, is this guy determined to be our enemy?"

Itachi stepped forward, and as his Sharingan with its three tomoe moved slightly, a unique chakra fluctuation spread out.

Kisame, standing to one side, also held the Samehada sword and stood shoulder to shoulder with Itachi, his aura firmly locked onto Menma.

Search by brief range perception.

And then there was Itachi's meaningful glance.

It was now 100% certain that there were no other enemies around, only the vortex in front of them.

Kisame naturally wanted to focus all his attention on Menma.

Bringing Shennong back to the organization was a strict order from their mysterious leader, which would normally be non-negotiable. However, for Kisame, the leader's order was secondary; Itachi's wishes were the primary consideration.

If Itachi says he'll take action, Kisame won't hesitate for a second.

The opposite is also true.

"Enemies? No, no, no, it's just that our intentions are similar. It all comes down to who gets the upper hand first, doesn't it? Shouldn't it be up to you whether or not we become enemies, Itachi-san?"

Mianma chuckled lightly and said nonchalantly.

Putting aside the fact that Menma is 100% aware of the organization's true nature and intentions, even if he really didn't know, why would he hand over the prize he had already obtained?

Wouldn't that make it a huge joke?

At Mianma, the only difference is whether it can be done, not whether it's possible to do it.

The key technical information in Shennong's brain, as well as the giant flying fortress of the Sky Kingdom that was left behind, were things that Mianma was determined to obtain.

With these things, Menma was confident that he could further enhance the strength of his subordinate ninja villages in a short period of time!

The three people looked at each other.

The silence that had become slightly eerie.

The three remained silent for a long time.

It took a good ten or twenty seconds.

"In that case, let's leave it at that."

Itachi gave Menma a deep look, a faint sharpness flashing in his eyes, which then disappeared as Itachi finished speaking.

"whoosh"

He turned and flew away.

Kisame sheathed his Samehada sword, chuckled incomprehensibly, and then, with a flicker of his body, left the spot and quickly followed Itachi away.

The two of them just left like that.

Mianma frowned slightly, and a strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes, which he quickly concealed as he picked up Shennong, who was already unconscious.

With the same swaying motion, they slowly drifted away in a different direction.

After spending about half an hour, we arrived at a relatively secluded valley.

After looking around, Mianma nodded slightly.

'This should be about it.'

After whispering a sentence to himself.

He then tossed the Shennong sword in his hand.

As he brought it to eye level, Menma formed a hand seal with one hand.

With a "thud"!

Shennong's body trembled slightly.

His previously tightly closed eyes slowly opened, but his gaze was filled with confusion.

It's as if there's no focus at all.

"Buzz!"

Menma met Shennong's gaze once more, revealing his fox-like eyes. With the help of the Nine-Tailed Fox's power, Menma easily invaded Shennong's spiritual world.

Few ninjas can set a sealing technique on their own brain. Firstly, such a seal requires extremely high skill and ability. Secondly, the brain is the most vulnerable organ in the human body, and even if one has the corresponding ability, problems can easily occur if the technique is not applied properly.

Therefore, once a ninja falls into the hands of the enemy...

Whether alive or dead.

Others can obtain the relevant intelligence and information he knows from his brain. Of course, there are not many ninjas with this ability. Menma was able to do this with the help of Kurama.

This was the case with the previous Hiruzen.

The same applies to Shennong today.

In less than a minute or two, Mianma obtained all the information he wanted from Shennong's brain.

"So that's how you cultivate zero-tailed ones. The conditions and methods for replication aren't too difficult, but the cost is a bit prohibitive. And you also need a bit of luck at the end. Could you lower the standards a little? Hmm? But then... never mind, never mind, this thing isn't suitable..."

The most important information Menma wanted to obtain was, of course, the various technologies of the Sky Country and the whereabouts of that giant flying fortress. This was the first part of the search, and then she also looked into the cultivation of the Zero-Tail with interest.

After all, this thing isn't particularly powerful for truly strong individuals.

But if we can achieve mass production...

Then you can build an ultimate, invincible legion. Of course, Mianma doesn't expect the things he cultivates to reach the level of Shennong. Even if they are a level lower, it doesn't matter. But unfortunately...

This is not something that can be done easily.

Even if the requirements for hemp seed are not that high, it is not an easy task to adapt a suitable cultivation method.

Moreover, Mianma is also very self-aware.

My research abilities are still somewhat lacking compared to those of Shennong and Beiliuhu, based on my previous series of experiments.

All of this was based on Orochimaru's various research results, as well as the reference and assistance of some related plots in the original work, which allowed Menma to proceed smoothly. If he were to start a completely new experiment, it would be impossible unless he followed someone else's template, such as Hiruko's Oni-Gera Jutsu that he had previously acquired.

That would indeed allow things to proceed more smoothly.

However, if I were to find a new entry point, even with reference conditions and simulation methods, the time required would be an unpredictable figure, and Mianma doesn't have the time to deal with such things right now.

Shennong, as the true originator, needed a bit of luck to create such a successful embryo after more than ten years. How could Mianma possibly perfectly replicate it in a short time and even plan to achieve a slightly lower level of mass production?

Therefore, this idea only briefly crossed Menma's mind before he abandoned it and went straight to studying the Sky Country technology he had just acquired.

With this brand-new equipment and technology in hand.

Menma was confident that he could raise the strength of his own ninja village to a higher level.

In the world of ninjas.

Being able to fly is a huge advantage. How many ninjas possess aerial combat abilities? This principle applies even in battles at the Kage level.

Rasa, Onoki, Gaara, and Deidara possess an innate advantage when facing opponents of the same level.

This is a real advantage!

"We need to set up a special task force when we get back. How many people should we get initially? Hmm..."

'Five hundred people should be about right...'

'We can have Fu Yi try to be the person in charge.'

'We also need to find a time to bring back that flying fortress; it'll be more convenient in the Land of Rivers anyway.'

And then...

After obtaining the necessary information.

While thinking about his next necessary arrangements, Mianma also ended Shennong's life.

This guy is a real menace if we keep him around, so let's just get rid of him. Menma never chooses to scheme against these old guys; that's not Menma's strength.

Despite his seemingly two-life appearance, his mental age is over thirty.

But in his previous life, he was just an ordinary college student.

She was only in her early twenties.

What kind of life experience could he possibly have?

The first 12 years of this life were spent in Konoha Village, where he had to pretend to be a harmless little guy at all times.

They are both 30 years old.

Menma's mental age is significantly different from that of a person in their 30s.

Menma herself is also very clear about this.

He would never use his weaknesses to exploit someone else's strengths.

Mianma doesn't want to become the kind of fool who gets sold out without even realizing it, and happily counts the money for the other person.

The essential quality for a skilled mathematician is this ability to make sound judgments.

Therefore, neither could Beiliuhu have survived, nor could Shennong.

Unable to confide in, unable to trust, and being an experienced fellow, killing him and using his body as research material would be the best outcome for Menma.

The plan was slowly taking shape in my mind.

With the anticipated setup of the new ninja village, Menma's lips curled into a beautiful smile.

He truly hadn't expected to gain anything from this trip.

'If everything goes smoothly, we might be able to start the plan next year...'

A faint, bright light shone in Mianma's eyes as he silently pondered in his heart.

It was after Mianma had almost sorted out her thoughts.

Mianma looked up at the sky.

The sun was already slowly setting, and another hour or two had passed.
