Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

I don't quite understand what Menma's intention is. Didn't he come here early today just to fight for my own power?

Ah Jun didn’t think this was so abominable. At most, he felt that Menma was a little impatient. But now it seems that he had made a wrong judgment?

There was a hint of confusion in the depths of Ajun's pupils.

'So what is he doing here today?'

"Well, that's fine. It's indeed more appropriate to get more familiar with it."

If you can’t understand it, then don’t think about it.

Ajun also coughed lightly and still spoke with a smile.

"But regarding the defense of our village, I do have some immature suggestions."

Menma paused for a moment before continuing his words.

next second.

Ajun's brows began to frown.

And before Ajun could say anything.

"For example, the most important peripheral perception barrier is not set up in Takigakure Village. This is a very important issue for the safety of the ninja village, right? Jun-san."

Menma looked up and looked directly at Jun, saying with a very serious expression.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 229 The first batch of subordinates trained!

An excellent leader can attract many followers. First of all, of course, this leader needs to have extraordinary abilities and extraordinary personal charm. This is the most important first impression. If you don’t even have such an attractive image, there is no way you can make others identify with you and follow you.

Menma's incarnation as 'Accelerator' who joined Takigakure Village had a pretty good performance in his first appearance in front of all the members of Takigakure Village. The powerful attitude he displayed really touched the hearts of many Takigakure ninjas.

In the world of ninja, powerful strength is the greatest charm attribute.

There is absolutely no way any ninja would follow a weak person.

The same is true for Orochimaru.

If this snake uncle is not strong enough, how could he attract so many followers? Just relying on charm and kindness?

Have you ever heard of this saying: if you are handsome, you have to repay the favor of someone saving your life with your body; if you are ugly, you have to repay the favor of someone saving your life by working like a slave in your next life. This is the difference, and it is also true for ninjas.

If you don't have enough power to convince others, don't expect others to follow you or identify with you.

This is why Menma must deliberately find an opportunity to show his strength in front of most of the Taki ninjas. The first impression must be "good"! Menma wants these Taki ninjas to know that he is a powerful ninja.

At least in terms of strength, he is an existence worthy of their recognition and following.

But this is just the first point!

Just the first step!

Making others think that you have something worth following and making them decide to follow you are two different things. Menma must make these Taki ninjas see that following him and obeying his commands is meaningful and valuable, and a natural thing to do.

Giving benefits is the most meaningful and valuable thing.

Because 99.9% of human beings in this world are ordinary beings, and it is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm.

Menma wants to start from this point to strengthen his presence in the Takigakure Village, let the Takigakure ninjas led by Ajun see his value, and see the meaning and benefits of following him!

"Barrier? You must be joking. How can our Takigakure Village have a barrier that can cover the entire ninja village? That is a capability that only the five major ninja villages have. Our Takigakure Village not only does not have the corresponding techniques, but we don't even have the personnel to set up the barrier. In this regard, we are powerless."

When Ah Jun heard Menma's words, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Setting up a barrier that can cover the entire ninja village can improve the security factor of the ninja village. How could Ah Jun not know this? How could the leaders of the Takigakure Village in the past not realize it?"

That which cannot be done cannot be done.

Without the resources and manpower in this area, they in Takigakure Village would definitely not be able to set up the corresponding barrier.

According to Ajun's understanding, even in their Takigakure Village's heyday, they did not have the ability to set up such a super-large barrier, let alone now. It was simply too much to ask. If it were any other occasion, any other time, or any other person, Ajun would feel that the other party was mocking their ninja village for being too weak.

At that moment, Ajun even felt a little resentful in his heart.

Isn't this a typical case of bringing up something that is not relevant?!

But it was only at that moment, when Ajun had just finished speaking, a ray of light flashed in his brain.

'Could it be? '

When a thought just emerged in my mind.

"Haha, of course I know this, so what I mean is that we should set up this barrier now. I have the corresponding technique here. Of course, this is not something that can be done by one person. After all, even if the scale of our Takigakure Village is not as large as the five major ninja villages, it is not small either. If we want to cover the entire village, we still need multiple fulcrums to support it. I can train a group of basic perception barrier setting and maintenance personnel to set up a perception barrier that is large enough to cover the entire ninja village!"

Menma, who was sitting opposite him, smiled slightly and said to Ajun with a confident look.

Menma didn't have such ability before. He only mastered the most basic parts of the sealing technique or the barrier technique. The former was okay, because he wanted to break the Bagua sealing technique in his body, so Menma did work hard, but it was only for the Four Symbols Seal. His knowledge in other aspects was still zero. Let alone the latter. He only understood the basic knowledge and could set up some of the simplest perception barriers.

This is not only because Menma does not have much time, but also because he already possesses the Kagura Mind's Eye, so there is no need for him to understand this aspect. The defensive barrier is even more difficult than the former.

It is even more impossible for Menma to spend time learning.

That's wasting your precious time.

But it's different now.

The core techniques of a series of techniques such as Flying Thunder God, seals, barriers, etc. that he obtained from his father Minato Namikaze, although they are only symbols existing in Menma's brain at present, and he needs to explore, learn and master them by himself, but there is finally a corresponding way, and it is a shortcut.

Sensing the barrier with a single finger, Minato is the Fourth Hokage and the son-in-law of the Uzumaki clan. He has his own unique knowledge and understanding in this regard.

In the past few days, Menma has also initially learned how to set up a large-scale perception barrier similar to the one in Konohagakure, which covers the entire area of ​​the ninja village. Of course, it cannot be compared with it in terms of strength and scale.

But it is enough for use in Takigakure Village.

This can not only improve the defense strength and security of the ninja village, but also provide an excellent opportunity to legitimately train and master a group of core subordinates of your own.

This group of ninjas who are able to sense the barrier and who will obey his command in the future are almost definitely Menma's first group of core subordinates in Takigakure Village.

This is a two-pronged approach.

"Really? Ichika-san!?"

When Ah Jun heard what Menma said, he suddenly stood up, looked at Menma with a look of surprise, and shouted in a high voice at that moment.

A barrier large enough to cover the entire ninja village.

That is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

One must have extremely deep attainments in the area of ​​barriers. Once successful, it would greatly enhance the security of the Takigakure Village and further reduce the risk of invasion by foreign enemies.

Improve your own ninja village's ability to search for enemies and protect itself!

While Ah Jun was surprised, there was also a hint of deep suspicion in his eyes.

Even if it was a disguise, Menma now looked like he was in his early 20s. Ah Jun really doubted whether such a young man was really capable of setting up such a super-large barrier.

"How can I lie about such a big thing? Of course, I have to explain first that I can't set up such a large barrier by myself. I can be responsible for the core points, but each fulcrum requires one or two ninjas to assist in the execution. Once the technique is successful, it will also require a batch of precision instruments to help maintain it in the future!"

Menma said with a slight smile.

This is a naked replica of the Konoha barrier.

Even though it is a bit weaker, it can at least be compared with the precision and strength of the barriers of other major ninja villages.

"That's natural! Let's go find Master Shibuki right away!"

Hearing Menma's words of affirmation again.

Ajun's face immediately showed a look of great joy, and he quickly said.

"Ok!"

Menma also smiled and nodded.

The two of them went towards the government hall together. Not long after, Shibuki received the news that Menma and Ajun had arrived together.

Inside, in Shibuki’s private office.

After listening to Ajun's brief report, Shibuki's eyes lit up and he looked at Menma with a hint of surprise.

"As long as Yifangjun can successfully set up the barrier, no matter how many people or resources are needed, just ask, and the village will definitely do its best to help!"

Shibuki said in a very serious tone.

Even a fool leader can see how important a large barrier that can cover the entire ninja village is. This is the most direct and important means to add a sense of security to everyone in the village.

Shibuki fully foresaw that once this barrier was successfully set up, the village's cohesion would definitely be raised to a higher level, and as the leader, he would also gain further support and respect from the ninjas under his command, as well as the ordinary people.

A leader who can make the village stronger and safer is a leader worth following.

"Well, it may take a little longer. After all, there don't seem to be many professional barrier-type ninjas in our village."

Menma nodded slightly, and then simply pointed out a key issue with more tactful words.

Different from the normal fighting type of ninja.

Ninjas who are proficient in special techniques such as medicine, perception, and barriers are extremely valuable talents even in the five major ninja villages.

It can even be said that except for the Konohagakure Village, which has a very complete talent pool, the other four major ninja villages, especially the poor Sand Village, only have the most basic level of talent configuration.

Not to mention Takigakure Village.

A talent of enchantment type?

Sorry, there is no one in Takigakure Village at the moment.

It would take at least several months to train a group of barrier-building classes that were at least barely qualified.

Of course, the intention this time is relatively simple. It is purely for the arrangement of this specific perception barrier. The time required can be further shortened a lot. It is not really about cultivating a ninja who is good at using barriers.

Moreover, some assigned tasks can be broken down and assigned to different people.

But even so.

Without two or three months, it would be impossible to get started.

Besides, Menma himself also needs more time to figure it out. To be frank, he is only a half-baked person at the moment.

"This is inevitable!"

Shibuki also nodded in understanding.

Shibuki knew the situation of his own ninja village better than anyone else. If one wanted to set up a super-large perception barrier, it would definitely not be possible by one person, and there was no such talent in his own ninja village.

For now, I can only rely on Menma.

Shibuki certainly understood that this was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

"We can draw personnel from the existing garrison personnel. You can discuss with Ah Jun-sang how many are needed. If there are suitable people in other departments, they can also be transferred here. As for the funds, we can go directly to the garrison approval. As for the purchase of equipment, you can just make a list of what is needed, and then let the village procurement personnel configure it!"

Shibuki continued.

"Well, we don't need too many people. It's estimated that there will only be twelve points, and four people will take turns to be in charge of each point. As for the instruments, you don't need to worry about them, Mr. Shibuki. I can get them from other channels, because these instruments are also difficult to obtain from general channels on the market."

Menma said, smiling and nodding.

Money, instruments and so on are not a problem at all. The wealth obtained from Cardo is enough for Menma to squander for a while. Orochimaru can provide Menma with the most sophisticated and advanced instruments. Menma can easily solve problems in this regard. What he wants is a chance to intervene in the internal affairs of Takigakure Village with justification and then actually gain a group of subordinates.

The more you give, the more you can show your presence!

Shibuki was stunned at first, and then he immediately thought of Orochimaru. Since Menma did not hide his identity from Shibuki, he told Shibuki all the unimportant things, including the alliance with Orochimaru.

Or is it a special alliance with Ōnoki?

Shibuki knows a little bit about it.

This is also to strengthen Shibuki's inner confidence in himself.

After all, these are all heavyweights.

After Menma said this, Shibuki naturally thought of Orochimaru. As a famous figure in the ninja world today, even if Shibuki didn't know Orochimaru very well, he would never doubt Orochimaru's ability and channels.

Therefore, he nodded slowly and said, "Well, it is indeed most reasonable for Yifangsang to handle this, but the necessary expenses should still be paid from the village's finances. This is different from before. It is not for your personal use, Yifangsang, but for the defense of the village. The public and private sectors must be clearly distinguished."

Listening to Shibuki's words.

Ajun didn't have any doubts.

However, unlike Shibuki who was familiar with some of Menma's background, Jun was just a pure person and thought he had a background from the Fire Country, but this was also something that could be associated with the past.

With the official background of the Fire Nation, getting some high-precision instruments is indeed not a big problem.

But this is also a question that arises from this.

That is, Ajun is very afraid that his own ninja village will become closer and closer to the official relationship of the Fire Country, which will cause problems in Konoha.
