The expressions of Shemu, Wuwei, and the others also changed accordingly.

"Has everyone finished reading? Tell me, what do you think we should do?"

With his hands crossed on the table, Mianma leaned forward slightly and looked at Shemu, Wuwei, and the others below, asking a question.

"Lord Menma, my opinion is to execute him directly. Although it may not cause too much trouble, it is still a potential threat. It is the most appropriate thing to do as soon as possible!"

Yu Mianma had just finished speaking.

Sitting on the left, Wuwei's face turned fierce, and he spoke with a murderous aura.

Peaceful, respectful, and harmless to humans and animals.

That's the attitude Wuwei only shows when facing his own Tenkage or his son. When facing enemies, Wuwei is always the same cold and ruthless person. When he sees that someone actually wants to scheme against his own Tenkage and plot against their Hidden Light Village, Wuwei will naturally show his cruel side.

To put it in Wuwei's words, all enemies, once discovered, should be nipped in the bud and eradicated completely, leaving no chance for the enemy to turn the tables.

Even if this enemy is a bit special.

It's not that he showed overwhelming hostility, but in Wuwei's view, there is no difference between one percent hostility and one hundred percent hostility; an enemy is an enemy!

For the sake of his own ninja village's interests and safety, and for the great cause of his own Tenkage, Wuwei's heart can be more ruthless than anyone else's. You should know that after Menma's efforts over this period of time, Wugou has almost perfectly mastered the power of Wu.

If only the experiment on the dough is completed.

The same benefits can be enjoyed by Wugou.

By then, while we can't say we'll be completely free from its influence, at least we'll be able to fully control the Box of Bliss, instead of being in a passive and restrictive situation like before.

It is based on this that Wuwei's loyalty to Ma is getting higher and higher.

He eagerly awaits the day his son can fully recover and return to normal, and he also looks forward to the day he can hold his grandson in his arms.

Therefore, Wuwei would never allow anyone to affect his Lord Tianying's plans.

"Is that really how it is? They're being far too impatient and excessive. It's their own problem, after all; how can they let outsiders get involved?"

Sitting opposite Wuwei, Shemu also sighed softly, shook his head, and said.

"They're a bunch of shameless bastards! Not only did they keep us in check before, but they were also incredibly arrogant when they needed our help. Now they dare to do something like this! It's absolutely despicable!!!"

Fu also had a gritted-teeth expression.

His little face was filled with anger and confusion.

“Lord Mianma, my opinion is the same as my father’s. We should get rid of these pests as soon as possible. Anyway, there are many alternatives, and we can pick one at will.”

Wu Gou, who was at the very bottom, directly echoed his father's opinion. After all, they were father and son, and Wu Gou was also full of malice towards these guys who dared to defy Mian Ma.

Does this kind of guy even have any reason or meaning to live?!

Executing them outright would be considered an act of kindness on their part.

"Yes, it definitely needs to be dealt with, but we can't do it so hastily. After all, he is our country's daimyo, and it's not necessarily all his will. Perhaps it's just his subordinates acting on their own. The founding ceremony of our ninja village is coming soon, so it's not advisable to make a big fuss at this stage. Today, I just wanted to let everyone know about this matter."

Mianma waved his hand and said softly.

The noble class, led by the daimyo of both countries, is the 'enemy' that everyone just mentioned. This intelligence came from a spy who was hiding in the high-ranking positions of both countries. This is in line with the practices between ninja villages and nations. Generally, the five great ninja villages will place certain personnel in the capital and government of their respective countries.

Ostensibly, it was to protect the nobles, especially the Daimyo.

In reality, those who know, know.

Aren't the Twelve Guardian Ninja of the Land of Fire a prime example? That ninja force, which should have been completely subservient to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, actually had the Hokage's son join them!? And what if a fierce battle ensued later?

Isn't this a striking enough example?!

High-ranking officials in governments around the world are well aware of this.

This is why they have grown increasingly disgusted with the ninja villages in their own country. The daimyo and nobles of the Land of Waterfall and the Land of Grass are already very careful in their internal conspiracies. Unfortunately, Menma is not one of those completely 'proud' ninjas. Not only has he placed ninjas in the capital, but he has also deliberately bribed some 'ordinary people'.

Among the nobility and high-ranking government officials.

There are our own people who are numbingly honest.

Some were bribes, some were threats.

Regardless of the method used, it is possible to ensure that these people convey useful information to Mianma. Although these people are completely useless in important matters, they can still handle some minor issues properly.

This is the secret plot that the two daimyo are conspiring to make.

It's relatively important that you know the color of the dough in advance.

Because the two daimyo wanted to cause trouble at the ceremony, shake Menma's prestige, and make the entire Hidden Light Village look foolish, they did not want to see the Hidden Light Village established smoothly, and they wanted to split this ninja village apart again.

Takigakure and Kusagakure are the best.

Neither of them needs a new great power, Ninja Village.

Because of this goal, people from both countries have secretly colluded with foreign forces, and the problem is not necessarily that serious.

But what if we are completely unprepared?

Indeed, they would suffer a significant setback.

This is definitely not what Mianma wanted.

Now that we know in advance, or rather, that we are right under our noses about every move the other side makes, then the actions of this group are meaningless. A few genin can easily take them all out.

As long as they don't directly confront the National Guard, any competent genin could easily assassinate these so-called nobles.

Oh, the daimyo, and some of the highest-ranking nobles might not be able to, because these guys always secretly recruit some wandering ninjas and such. However, all the major ninja villages are aware of these things, but they themselves think that others are unaware.

In short, it's a problem that can be handled by sending more junior and middle-ranking ninja.

Menma felt that the problem wasn't too big. The important thing now was to ensure the stability of the village and the country. Therefore, he wanted to let Muwei, Shibuki, and others know about it, especially Muwei. The problem on the Grass Country side would be left to Muwei to handle.

Even if you're a bit timid, you need to clarify your own attitude first.

"But Lord Menma, while these people are indeed not a concern, those guys from abroad are a significant problem. Konoha is also involved. I still think it's best to strike first. I don't know much about the Land of Waterfalls, but we can definitely have that Third Prince succeed to the throne in the Land of Grass. He's a very 'gentle' person and will definitely cooperate with our work, Lord Menma."

After taking a deep breath, Wuwei looked intently at Mianma and offered his suggestion once again.

Chapter 372 The Upcoming Celebration

Ordinary ninjas do indeed have a considerable amount of conventional respect for daimyo and nobles, but the higher the ninja's position, the more disdainful they become of the so-called daimyo and nobles, not to mention Mui.

This is just a pawn in our own ninja village's game.

Everything must be done with the interests of their own Hidden Light Village as the priority, and everything must serve the great cause of their own Lord Tenkage.

A mere daimyo and a few insignificant nobles?

They killed him because he was so ignorant.

They can simply replace them with their sensible next generation.

It should be said that this is the kind of blood flowing in Wuwei's veins. It was only when Mianma showed unparalleled strength that he saved the father and son. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for Wuwei to be loyal to someone.

Wuwei's suggestion was also a manifestation of his extreme loyalty to Ma.

The enemy of the master is also our enemy.

this sentence.

This is perfectly embodied in Wuwei (non-action).

Words filled with murderous intent.

This also shocked Shibuki and Fumi on the other side. Although the two of them were also very disgusted by the actions of the two daimyo and felt that some necessary measures should be taken, they were not really this cruel.

How can a powerful ruler of a country be killed so easily?

"This doesn't seem quite appropriate. After all, if His Highness the Daimyo were to act rashly, it could easily cause turmoil in the country. Our ninja village is still in its early stages, so I think it would be better to use more peaceful methods."

Shemu slowly began to speak.

"It is precisely because this moment is so important that we cannot afford any problems. What if, during the grand ceremony, the two princes join forces with Konoha, and even the delegations from Iwagakure, Sunagakure, Kumogakure, and many other ninja villages to launch an attack? Mr. Shibuki, we must take precautions!"

Wuwei retorted with a stern expression.

"Alright, we do need to be wary of Konoha and Iwagakure. As for the two daimyo, let's not take any action for now, just keep them at arm's length. Everything will have to wait until after the ceremony. Although it's not a particularly big problem, for us right now, a smooth transition is the most important thing, Wuwei-san."

Menma waved his hand, interrupting the argument between the two.

The decision had already been made; we just wanted to see what everyone thought first. There was no need to argue about it.

If I had to say, Menma had indeed considered Wuwei's suggestion before, and it was the first thing that came to mind, but he rejected it at this crucial moment when his own ninja village had just been established.

The two daimyo died one after the other?

Even if there's not a single piece of evidence, the outside world won't find out.

But this kind of thing doesn't require any evidence, especially when there are other ways to handle it.

Mianma didn't want to give people anything to say about it.

Why invite trouble upon yourself?

Restricting or even imprisoning them are all options; in the end, they are just ordinary people.

As for Konoha and Iwagakure?

There's no need to worry too much. Menma doesn't believe that Onoki and Tsunade would be so stupid as to join forces with the government to plot another ninja village.

Let's put aside the issue of success rate.

This kind of thing just feels incredibly out of place no matter how you look at it.

Of course, ninjas can use any means necessary in their battles, but they must also analyze the specific circumstances. Using any means will not only fail to achieve the desired effect, but may also backfire on themselves. Menma doesn't think Onoki or Tsunade would make such a judgment.

At best, it was just a trial balloon.

Getting involved yourself? Only an idiot would do that.

Unless it can be a fatal blow, it's not worth considering.

Of course, necessary precautions will still be taken. As long as Konoha doesn't lose its mind and insist on launching a major attack on the day of the ceremony, these arrangements will be sufficient.

Take ten thousand steps back.

If a large-scale invasion were to occur, Konoha would only have two options: either rearrange the army for a full-scale invasion, or have Tsunade and Jiraiya personally lead a delegation of elite Jonin. The former is self-evident; unless Menma's subordinates were blind, deaf, or had all defected, it would be impossible for them not to know in advance.

The latter.
