Naruto, Uzumaki Menma, just wants to conquer the world

However, he would advise the emperor from time to time to transfer officials who were persecuted by Minister Ernest to the army for protection.

This kind of open and covert struggle between the military and the government is very interesting.

General Esdeath is just a pawn in their struggle.

Minister Ernest used his power to constantly promote the good words of General Esdeath, causing the emperor to use Esdeath, grant Esdeath the imperial weapon, and give Esdeath the important task of the Northern Expedition, which could gain great merit...

I'm afraid the ultimate goal is to support General Esdeath to replace General Bud?

What is Esdeath doing now?

In the northern border, Esdeath has pacified the barbarian army.

Not only that, the capital of the northern ethnic minorities was also turned into a dead city by General Esdeath, and 400,000 ethnic minorities were buried by her in ice.

The famous northern hero was now just a lowly bootlicker at Esdeath's feet, naked and licking her white boots.

It seems that he has lost his mind.

The proud blue-haired woman sat on the smooth stone chair, legs crossed, chains in her hands.

The end of the chain is connected to the collar around the neck of the Northern Warrior.

"Where on earth can I find an enemy that will satisfy me?"

At this time, his subordinate, the leader of the three soldiers, a tough old man with white hair, stepped forward.

Riva, a wise and brave imperial general, was falsely accused and arrested for refusing to pay a bribe. He was later rescued by Esdeath and has been loyal to her ever since.

The Water Dragon Possessed Black Marlin is the imperial weapon possessed by Riva, and is made from the organs of dangerous aquatic creatures that control water flow.

The wearer can freely manipulate the liquid in anything he touches, and his secret technique is "Blood Knife Kill" which uses his own blood as a weapon.

Riva presented the report, and Esdeath took it and began to read it.

"Half human, half ghost..."

"A red ghost wandering the empire..."

"An assassination group composed of imperial weapon users..."

Esdeath raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a terrifying smile that could make people shudder.

"Very good, very interesting."

Is this place really more advanced than the ninja world?

Not necessarily.

This autocratic empire has indeed taken its imagination to the extreme when it comes to "torturing people".

How can I take revenge on my enemies completely and thoroughly?

Chopping with knives, chopping with axes, frying with oil, cutting off hands and feet, gouging out eyes, cutting off noses...

Let your thoughts be driven by hatred and fly freely in malice!

No matter how powerful your imagination is, it cannot escape the records in the history of torture.

Beaten with whips, stoned to death...

Chop people into pulp or boil them alive...

Skinning him and eating his flesh was a common "severe punishment" in the empire.

Nowadays, almost every place has a conspicuous spot where criminals are chopped off two or all four limbs and tied to stakes to deter the people.

Executioners trained in this way can skillfully tear the prisoner into pieces and cut him into death, causing him to die in agony.

What crimes did most of them commit?

There were those who committed petty thefts, offended landlords, businessmen, bureaucrats, gathered people to rebel, and even those who were caught begging or strolling on the streets.

Their role is like "killing innocent people to claim credit", making others take the blame and forcing them to confess.

Local law enforcement agencies report to the imperial court every year and have dealt with countless vicious criminals.

A truly vicious murderer...

Or you can be the king of the mountains and enjoy the best life.

Or they live in temples and palaces, indulging in luxury and extravagance.

For reactionary local governments, it’s like this: If I can’t deal with them, can’t I deal with you?

I don't dare to catch those local tyrants.

I dare not offend the higher-ups.

I have no choice but to arrest you to make up the numbers.

An autocratic empire is a system of accountability to superiors, which means that only your superiors can appoint or dismiss you.

If the superiors are incompetent, the same as the others, do not care about the suffering of the people, are silent about the current darkness, and have no intention of actively reforming...

The country will be in a bad state.

Magnificent and magnificent, this is the banquet hosted by Jolly, a feast for the powerful and wealthy.

Feudal autocracy made the custom of hereditary succession in the imperial political arena become popular and even legitimate.

In the empire, children whose parents had served as officials and whose children later succeeded their parents as hereditary officials were called "second-generation officials."

But, they are not just the second generation, but the eternal generation.

The interest groups formed by these people control the political and economic lifelines of the empire in different areas of the empire, and have formed a trend of dividing the country.

Whenever new profitable areas emerge in the empire, these guys will rush to take them for themselves.

This spoils-sharing system is deeply rooted in the empire, making it difficult to change the phenomenon of abusing power for personal gain, and has become a cancer in the development of the empire.

Political families consisting of relatives and children were common in various parts of the empire.

It is reasonable and unquestionable for a child to inherit his father's legacy.

This party is full of people like this.

For example, this obese middle-aged man is a big real estate developer and a wealthy man in the imperial capital. He has a famous saying: "No imperial university is as good as courage."

But what is the reality?

Is it really okay to be brave?

His father, his relatives, and his backers support his courage.

His children grew up in the Western Kingdom, which was regarded as an enemy country by the empire. They were unruly and offended many people with their wild words, but they were still fine.

But this father and son were nothing special at this banquet.

Killer kings and cannibals were everywhere at this banquet, all dressed in elegant and luxurious dresses.

Ai'er was even more at a loss and hesitant, just like the first time he entered the city. It was only because Alia handled various events with ease that he didn't seem too embarrassed.

Ai Er's heart is wavering...

Do I really deserve a place like this?

Suddenly, she remembered what the boy had said to them many days ago: "Those who hold power have no clean parts on their bodies."

"Aren't you the same?" Farr said unconvinced.

It seems to be her habit to sabotage and argue.

In fact, Menma also has a spirit of argument.

When facing the revolutionary Nadezhda, he will say:

"This country has deep-rooted feudalism and authoritarianism."

"If this problem is not solved and the republic is established, feudal restoration and autocratic restoration will continue to occur again and again."

To Jolly, the former minister of the Empire, he would say:

"I am optimistic about the revolutionary army."

“Even if you kill all the roosters that crow, the day will still dawn, and those who should wake up will wake up. The foundation of a country depends on its people.”

This is not surprising...

His words and actions can no longer be described as simply "arguing", but rather as rebellion.

Overthrow all current order and establish a new order.

Therefore, he liked Farr's character more than the obedient El.

The boy did not refute her, but admitted generously: "Yes, so my hands are covered in blood."

"If you shoot, you must be prepared to be killed."

This is not a lie, this is not an excuse...

Is the truth.

That's why he chose death.

Once upon a time, Uzumaki Menma asked himself: Am I really afraid of death? Am I really afraid of death?

Don't do this if you are afraid of death.

Wealth and poverty are not as good as the realization of ideals.

Money and women are just tools to realize your ideals.

Then, Menma began to tell them a story that he had copied from somewhere and combined with his own experience, then changed it up a bit:

"I am a noble (referring to ninja) person, let's say a great noble (referring to the son of the Hokage), and I developed a habit there, always looking down on menial jobs (absolutely not)."

"For example, if I carry my own luggage, it doesn't look good."

"At that time, I felt that the only clean people in the world were nobles, and that workers and peasants were always relatively dirty."

"I can wear other people's clothes, thinking they are clean."

"I don't like to wear the clothes of workers and farmers because I think they are dirty."

"After that, I got together with the workers and farmers. I gradually got to know them, and they gradually got to know me."

"It was then, and only then, that I radically changed the sentiments which the ruling class had taught me."

"At this time, comparing the nobles with the workers and peasants, I felt that the nobles were not clean. The cleanest were the workers and peasants. Even though their hands were black and their feet were covered in cow dung, they were still cleaner than the nobles."

These words also became the spiritual pillar of Ai'er.

Time goes back to the present. At this moment, the boy is facing the invitation of Shila, the son of the imperial minister, to compete with him.

If nothing else, his views on women are pretty much the same as Menma's...

Women admire strong men.

Women are gullible fools.

Women are prey.

With just a little trick, you can trick them into getting what they want.

Using "male fighting" as a means for males to compete and show their strength in order to win the favor of females is a method applicable in any era.

This also means that...

Sibiya's plan worked.

They are really going to fight.

But these people don’t know that the pink sanctions will soon fall on them.

Maine's romantic turret, Pumpkin, was originally Nadezhda's imperial weapon, but was later given to Maine.

This is a gun-shaped imperial weapon that can convert spiritual energy into shock waves. Its power will increase according to the degree of crisis the user encounters.

The ultimate move is to remove restrictions to greatly increase the power of the weapon, but it will then be temporarily unusable due to overheating.

In short, if Menma knew the performance of this imperial weapon, he would definitely complain...

Everything can be Uchiha, right?

Spiritual energy can be used to fire map cannons...
