Menma herself seemed to realize this as well.

"That's incredibly stupid!"

After muttering something under his breath, whether to Yi or to himself, he put his hands on his head and walked towards the stairwell outside the living room.

Watching Menma leave.

Naruto wanted to say something, but in the end he chose to give up.

Honestly.

Just a moment ago.

Naruto even had the urge to scold Inari. Although Naruto in this life didn't experience the same things as in the original story, his personality still made him unable to accept the tears of a coward. You should know that there were three people in their team who were orphans in their childhood or even earlier. Don't be fooled by Naruto's positive and optimistic appearance every day.

But in private, Naruto also longed for his parents' care just as much.

But he never showed it outwardly.

This is Naruto's own insistence.

It is very small there.

But who hasn't gone through childhood?

Naruto felt that he could somewhat understand Menma's feelings at that moment.

Even Erzhuzi, who was in the farthest position, stared intently at the departing figure of Mianma, a strange glint appearing in his pupils.

'You and I are the same!!!'

Sakura was the only one who couldn't understand Menma and felt that Menma had gone too far. In her opinion, Inari was just a child, and a little one who had lost her father. Some inappropriate remarks should be tolerated, so how could Menma treat Inari like that?

Sakura Haruno felt that Menma was the one who made a mistake, and she disliked Menma more and more.

Of course, at this moment.

Sakura Haruno completely overlooked the fact that she was the only one in the team with both parents alive, or rather, she had never thought about this aspect of the situation and always put herself first.

Kakashi held a similar view to Naruto.

He felt that it was because of the deep imprint left by Menma's childhood experiences that he was directly triggered by Irene's actions.

And their guesses cannot be said to be wrong.

It's simply not comprehensive enough.

Menma, who had already left, naturally had no way of knowing what Kakashi and Naruto were thinking. After arriving at the high point of that sea cliff and being gently blown by the cold sea breeze, his mind calmed down again, and a self-deprecating look appeared on Menma's face.

'I'm still not mature enough. He's just a complete stranger, why am I arguing with him? Honestly, what am I doing? When did I become so stupid?'

With a slight thud, he slapped his cheeks with both hands.

"Snapped!"

He murmured to himself, clearly annoyed.

He was someone I was destined never to have any interaction with, and in this world he wasn't even a minor character. Why should I care about him? Why should I take him seriously?

Just because of my experiences in this life?

Because of a sense of déjà vu about something from a past life?

Indeed, Menma did not deny that at that moment, he was filled with the urge to rush up and beat up Inari, just like Naruto's attitude when he insisted on continuing the mission.

All of this made Mianma extremely annoyed.

But now that I think about it, did any of this make any sense?

No!

This is purely a disgusting venting of personal emotions, and it has no meaning for oneself or for the current reality.

No matter how you put it...

These are all signs of my own immaturity and a manifestation of my own twisted personality.

Including her previous inexplicable concern for Naruto, and even getting angry because of Naruto's attitude and personality, so what if he's her younger brother? Have they ever lived together? No!

Is there any real brotherhood? No!

Is it simply because of blood ties? Is it because Naruto and his younger brother from his previous life have very similar personalities?

Okay, maybe these are reasons, but do I have the right and the space to consider these things now?

There's a limit to how much you can mess around.

Pretentiousness must be stopped immediately.

Stupidity is absolutely unacceptable.

What exactly are my goals? What exactly are my plans?

Can't you see yourself clearly? Can't you make up your mind?

If that were the case.

Then you might as well just die!

Humans are indeed beings with seven emotions and six desires, and are also beings prone to making mistakes. But after making a mistake, we must learn to reflect on ourselves and correct our mistakes!

Thinking about her previous affectation and pretentiousness, Mianma felt disgusted with herself. She had already said that she would be a complete egoist.

In the end, what are you still worried about?

Is this person mentally unstable? Or perhaps suffering from a split personality?

In this mission.

Mianma truly examined his own heart.

What do I really want?

That is to live! To live as freely and gracefully as possible, and then do things that bring you peace of mind!

In this life, he wants to live with complete clarity!

As Menma gazed at the calm yet deep sea, a resolute and sharp glint appeared in his eyes.

No one can stop me! Whoever tries to stop me, I will not hesitate any longer!!!

At this moment, in this land of waves.

Mianma was the one who truly made her own decision.

After enjoying the cool breeze on the sea cliff for a while and calming himself down completely, Menma returned to the house.

Some things are as if they never happened.

Mianma also returned to his previous calm demeanor.

The state of mind can be considered a true transformation of the face; beneath that seemingly calm and even somewhat gentle demeanor lies a more unfamiliar estrangement.

But it's different from that naive period before.

Nowadays, people can perfectly put on a mask of pretense that others want to see.

People need setbacks and need to grow.

No one is born mature or rational.

The current noodles have now taken that crucial step.

(End of this chapter)

The goals identified in Chapter 64

This includes Kakashi as well.

He couldn't see through Menma's facade at all. On the contrary, during this mission, Kakashi made a very serious misjudgment of Menma. Whether it was when Naruto and Sakura wanted to continue the mission and Menma scolded them harshly, or that night when Menma vented his emotions on Iruka, all of these things made Kakashi truly believe that Menma was indeed a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, just as Iruka had said, and a person who truly cared about his comrades.

This cannot be said to be wrong.

That's a one-sided view.

It is even more untimely.

Mianma still carries the temperament and habits of her previous life. Although she says she has completely integrated into this world, she still seems a little out of place.

But he is different now.

Companions? Of course, you should care, but only like-minded companions. Can someone who chooses to go down a different path, or even the opposite path, be a companion?

The answer is obviously no.

Different road non-phase plan.

That night, Menma truly understood the real meaning of that sentence, and as a result, he became even more determined in his goals and will.

However, this is the true reality that Kakashi will never be able to see through, at least for now.

A peaceful night.

The following morning arrived.

After being coldly rebuked by Menma, the boy named Inari never appeared in Menma's sight again. Perhaps he was afraid, or perhaps Tazuna and Tsushima were worried that Menma would really attack Inari, so they told Inari to stay away from Menma.

But whatever the reason.

They didn't care about the freckles on their faces.

All he wanted now was to find Kado as soon as possible, because that big merchant had the funds he desperately needed.

Start-up capital is just as essential as any plan for the future.

Therefore, it happened as soon as it was light, right after breakfast.

Class 7 then sprang into action.

Sakura and Sasuke are in charge of protecting Tazuna today.

Menma took Naruto with him when they went out. The reason why Naruto was the first choice was simple: Naruto also knows the Shadow Clone Technique, which is of great use in intelligence gathering.

Menma was determined to gather as much useful information as possible today. As long as he could pinpoint Kado's exact location and it wasn't too far from them, Menma would head straight for him.

Mianma is confident that Mr. Kado's wallet will not disappoint her!
