The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

therefore.

In the past, this mountain became the most important battleground between the Cloud Ninja and the Leaf Ninja.

Originally, the Konoha ninja and the Kumo ninja fought within the Land of Hot Water, or even directly in the Land of Frost, which is closer to Kumogakure.

However, as Hiruzen Sarutobi repeatedly shrank his battle lines and made concessions to Kumogakure time and time again, the situation changed.

This directly led to Konoha becoming the completely passive and defensive side.

Not just the Land of Frost.

The Land of Hot Springs has completely fallen under the control of the Cloud Ninja.

If the two great ninja villages were to go to war, a large number of Konoha ninjas and Kumo ninjas would gather in the Fengzhui Mountain area. Even in peacetime, both villages would station a considerable number of ninjas in this area to guard against and monitor the other side's actions.

This demonstrates the importance of Fengzhui Mountain.

Mianma hadn't expected that a spatial passage would actually be located within this mountain range.

"Mianma, what exactly do you want to do with this place? Is there something sealed inside?"

The ANBU members dispatched were basically Menma's most loyal subordinates, and in order to facilitate the search for the locations Menma ordered, each of them possessed some ability related to barriers or sealing techniques.

The feedback clearly stated that while it was imperceptible from the outside, as long as one approached the innermost part, one could faintly detect a trace of unusual sealing power.

From Karin's perspective.

This is probably something with a special seal, like the previous Box of Elysium.

"No, there is a passage inside, a very special spatial passage."

Mianma smiled and shook his head.

"A spatial passage? Huh? Is this real? Where does that place lead to?"

Upon hearing Menma's words, Karin's eyes widened instantly, and she asked with a look of great surprise.

"Yes, that spatial passage is a passage to that moon."

"What? A passage to the moon? There's such a passage? Who could have set this up? Could it be the legendary Sage of Six Paths?"

"While it's not quite the same, it's not far off. The reason I found this passage is because..."

I still need Karin's assistance with my own experiments.

And it's the final step; it's time to tell Karin some of the more hidden truths of the ninja world.

The reason I didn't say anything before was simply because the time wasn't right.

Karin has always been the person Menma trusts the most.

The more Menma spoke, the greater the shock Karin felt.

Oh my god!

There are so many hidden secrets in the ninja world.

The legendary Sage of Six Paths had a brother, and the descendant of that brother was actually on the moon, and was the closest relative of the Hyuga clan.

Rolling your eyes can help you advance in the game?!

It's similar to the relationship between the Sharingan and the Rinnegan.

I must say this.

Even though Karin considered herself to be quite knowledgeable, she still became dumbfounded by Menma's words.

It's a feeling that's really hard to react to.

The impact of this kind of thing is just too strong.

Karin really needed time to react and process what she had said. Menma also deliberately waited for a while after he finished speaking. After a while, Karin's slightly dull eyes became lively again.

"So, Menma, your goal is that Tenseigan created by fusing a large number of Byakugan, right? Can that thing really be absorbed? Putting aside the stability of the spiritual power inside, just the fact that it's mixed with so many Byakugan probably means that some of the strong will of those Byakugan owners will remain, right? Rashly absorbing the original power of this Tenseigan could very well affect your spirit. Once your spirit is corrupted, the consequences are unimaginable, Menma."

All issues that can be considered from beginning to end.

Combined with the experiments they had conducted previously.

Karin's expression also turned very serious as she stared intently at Menma.

"Yes, that's a problem we do need to consider. However, we absolutely must acquire that eye, Karin. The enemies we face are not just the ones in front of us, but also those even more terrifying beings in the future. I need to gain greater power. Risk? What doesn't involve risk? These things are often intertwined. Of course, don't worry, I won't act recklessly. I will make thorough preparations. Besides, now is not the time to go there directly. At least we need to wait until this phase of our experiment is completely successful and my physical strength is raised to its maximum level before I go to the moon."

Menma gently patted Karin's small hand and said in a gentle yet firm tone.

Hearing Mianma's words.

Karin's expression also changed slightly.

I wanted to say something more, but I swallowed it back.

"Yes, I will definitely do my best to help you, Menma!"

He nodded emphatically, seemingly with a resolute expression.

"Hehe, there's no need to make such a big deal out of it. Don't worry, I'm confident in everything!"

Mianma said with a smile.

"Ok!"

Even though I know that Menma is just trying to comfort himself.

However, Karin still cooperated by showing a relaxed expression and nodded slightly in reply.

"Then, I'll go and make other preparations first, Mianma."

"Oh, go ahead."

After exchanging a few more words about the remaining work arrangements, Karin took the signed agreement from Menma and left.

Next, all that's needed is for this agreement to be sent back to Konoha. Tsunade, as the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, will sign and stamp it, and then it can be announced to the public and officially take effect. This agreement does not explicitly state that the two parties are forming an alliance. In essence, it is not much different from the verbal agreement that Menma previously made with the Third Tsuchikage.

It's just a superficial, soft-binding clause.

However, it will still have a certain degree of misleading and deterrent effect on the outside world. It is obvious that the ninja villages of other countries will also fall into unpredictable speculation and chaos because of this agreement, especially the other major ninja villages.

This is exactly the result Mianma wanted.

If you can't figure it out, you won't dare to act rashly, which will buy you the necessary time to strengthen your body and complete the moon landing plan. As long as you can achieve these steps smoothly, Menma will truly have nothing to fear from anyone.

Even those enemies from the stars.

They all have the confidence and strength to cope with difficulties.

And it was with Mianma's signature that he put pen to paper.

The Konoha delegation's stay in Koukinu Village was entering its final countdown, until this very last moment.

Menma has also refused to allow Naruto to meet with the people in the delegation.

This is a matter of principle for Menma. Tolerating Naruto is already Menma's limit. Menma will not do anything unnecessary.

And it was on the last night before the mission was to leave.

The hotel where the Konoha delegation was staying.

Under the cover of shadows.

Two figures quietly came together.

Under the faint moonlight, the slightly thin figure on the left, with that familiar face, was none other than the only sensory-type Jonin in the delegation, and the ninja named Hoshi who was deeply trusted by Tsunade and sent there.

The man opposite him was extremely tall and burly, with orange-yellow side-parted hair, tied in a high short ponytail, and also had rather distinctive golden-yellow pupils and a square jaw.

This man was one of Danzo's most trusted subordinates in the Root organization, and like Inoichi, he came from the Yamanaka clan—Yamaka Fu.

A Jonin with exceptional sensory abilities who has mastered various secret techniques of the Yamanaka clan!

Please take one day off.

As the title suggests, I need to take a day off today due to some personal matters. I hope my fellow readers will understand. Wishing all my readers a happy holiday and a joyous family reunion!

Chapter 388 Stealth in the Shadows

At this moment, here, the intention behind their private meeting is self-evident.

This is a Konoha Jonin named A-Xing.

It is obvious that he is also one of Danzo's subordinates, or at least someone who has been bribed by Danzo.

"Have you obtained concrete information yet?"

Shan Zhongfeng looked at A Xing and asked with a very cold expression.

Ah Xing, seemingly used to it all along, no longer displayed the gentle demeanor he usually showed when interacting with Shikaku and the others. Instead, he adopted a cold expression almost identical to that of Yamanaka Fu, nodding slightly and replying, "Although there isn't much valuable information, we've been able to roughly pinpoint a region during this period. However, this could very well be a ploy by the other side to lure us out. Otherwise, there's no reason why Minamoto no Uzumaki from Hidden Light Village would allow those little guys in the delegation to wander around. If they act rashly, they might easily attract the attention of the other side."

"It's alright. Lord Danzo's order is to find out as much as possible about Naruto Namikaze's life or death, as well as his exact location. And even if we fail, it won't affect Lord Danzo's plan."

Yamanaka Fu remained indifferent. Despite the fact that this mission was directly related to his life, Yamanaka Fu, who had already dedicated everything to Danzo, did not care at all.

Danzo's intentions are already quite clear.

If the news that Naruto is still alive can be confirmed.

Danzo felt that he now had a weakness that he could easily exploit. Even if he failed, igniting the relationship between the two villages was also Danzo's intention.

Do you want to make peace with Hidden Light Village?

No way!

Danzo Shimura would never allow such a thing to happen.

As the ultimate martial arts master, Shimura Danzo not only had the ambition to completely dominate the ninja world, but also believed that Konoha's strength could overwhelm the entire ninja world.

Regardless of the reason, Danzo really did have this inexplicable self-confidence.

It's like how the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars were so difficult for Konoha because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's poor leadership (although that was partly true).

It's as if whenever Shimura Danzo takes the stage, he can lead Konoha to sweep across the entire ninja world in no time.
