Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Seize the initiative!

This is the most important thing!

As long as this is ensured, won’t the Hidden Cloud Village still have the final say on what to do next?

After understanding this, especially after confirming that his own Lord Raikage was not really furious and did not rush forward recklessly, the heavy stone hanging on Tutai's heart slowly relaxed.

"I see what you mean. I will pay extra attention to the other side then."

Tutai nodded in reply.

"Well, I'll leave it to you. This time, I'm going to make the entire ninja world tremble at the power of our Kumogakure!"

The Fourth Raikage snorted coldly.

The aura emanating from his body was like violent thunder.

Chakra exploded.

Moving forward at a faster speed.

All eyes converged, and the three major ninja villages took action separately, but Menma had already anticipated and prepared for this.

Take action in the three major ninja villages.

Especially when the troops from the Hidden Cloud Village were approaching at top speed.

Menma also received the most accurate information at the first time.

It should be said that even if they had been aware of it, when they received the information that Kumogakure and Konoha were acting in sync (because of the distance, at this time, they had not received any news from the Mist Ninja).

Menma couldn't help but feel nervous.

This is also the case with menma.

Not to mention Shemu, Ajun and others.

The moment they received the news, they all looked very nervous and worried.

Have expectations in mind.

And the moment when this scene really comes.

There is still an essential difference!!

Chapter 289 Menma's Courage

Takigakure Village.

In the spacious government hall.

Menma, Shibuki, Ajun, Yutaka, Fu, and the Takigakure Village ninjas who are in charge of various important positions, including Fushimi, Tara and others.

At this time when their ninja village is about to face the biggest crisis.

Of course, it was necessary to summon all the senior people in the village to discuss important military affairs, and at this moment, almost all of them had serious expressions on their faces.

While Fushimi, Duolan and the others had solemn expressions on their faces, there was a hint of strangeness in their eyes as they looked in the direction of Menma.

Even though I learned about it several days ago.

But the role of Accelerator, who is clearly a young man in his 20s, was actually played by a boy who was only 13 years old!

To this day, Fushimi, Tara and others still find it difficult to digest this news.

Menma’s identity is really shocking!

The son of the Fourth Hokage, an S-rank rebel ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village, and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, any of these three identities alone would be terrifying enough, let alone all three combined into one.

Such a person actually joined their Takigakure Village! ?

It would be strange if you can just accept it.

What's more, apart from the numbness.

Yu Gao's identity is also very surprising.

An S-rank rebel ninja from the Hidden Mist Village and the Six-Tails Jinchūriki.

If there were also a son of the Mizukage, that would be even more incredible.

Even so, when they thought that there were three tailed beast jinchuriki in their own ninja village, they couldn't help but gasp.

This is a period when the fighting power of their Takigakure Village has expanded unprecedentedly.

Even the peak period when the village was first built cannot be compared with this.

Three tailed beasts!

This is a luxurious configuration that none of the five major ninja villages have ever had, but when I think of the hell-level disaster that is about to come.

The expressions of these people became very solemn.

Even if there are three tailed beast jinchuriki.

They were still unsure in their hearts. It wasn't like the Jinchūriki was undefeatable. That was the strength of the five major ninja villages!

That is definitely not something that an ordinary ninja village can measure and resist.

But in this case.

None of them said much, and everything had to be arranged by their leader.

Fushimi, Tara and the others kept shifting their glances between Menma and Shibuki with an indescribable meaning.

"The above is what we have learned about the movements of Konoha and Kumogakure Village. Thanks to the intelligence provided by Menma-kun and the strongholds established in advance at the frontier, we can more accurately grasp the movements of the two major ninja village troops. However, it can be foreseen that once the formal invasion begins, the situation will inevitably develop in a direction that we cannot control and predict."

On the right side, Ajun, who was in charge of the garrison, conveyed the information gathered over the past few days in the simplest terms to other people present who did not know the details yet.

"Is it the Fourth Raikage who is dispatching himself? He really thinks highly of our Takigakure Village. It seems that the Hidden Leaf Village will also send out corresponding forces. Menma-kun, can we really stop the invasion of the two major ninja villages?"

Above the main seat.

Shibuki asked, looking at Menma with an expression of anxiety and worry that he couldn't hide.

He is really afraid.

It's not fake.

The power of the five major ninja villages is earned through real fighting. Based on past experience, any of the following ninja villages will be defeated if they face the five major ninja villages!

Even the Hidden Rain Village, led by Hanzo of the Salamander, who was once known as a demigod, could only barely maintain its dignity and autonomy because the five major ninja villages were wary of each other.

If it really is a one-on-one fight.

The Sand Village can crush the Rain Village with great strength!

Comparing the number of ninjas, there is a huge gap!

The era when Shibuki grew up was the period when the power of the five major ninja villages was established. Even compared to when he just took the throne, he has grown a lot, but this kind of fear comes from his heart, and it is impossible to eliminate it in a short time.

Words seem powerless at this moment.

Only strength and victory are the most solid support.

Menma himself is also very clear about this.

Yes.

"Haha, there's no need to worry, Shibuki-san. Everything is as I expected. It's a little unexpected that the Fourth Raikage led the team personally, but it's not impossible to deal with them. It's even more impossible for Konoha to really cooperate closely with the Hidden Cloud Village. The Fourth Raikage probably has his own calculations, but he made a fatal mistake, which is the decision to send troops first. We can seize this opportunity, create a time difference, take the initiative, and defeat the Cloud Ninja troops led by the Fourth Raikage! Lay the foundation for an advantage on the battlefield!"

As soon as Shibuki finished speaking, Menma raised his chin and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice with a look of extreme confidence.

And along with these words fell.

Menma very deliberately and proactively released a very faint eerie aura, which permeated the vast chakra fluctuations in the entire space.

It's just purely showing off one's strength!

Use practical actions to increase the confidence of this group of people in your family.

Even though Menma himself has some worries in his heart, anyone can show it except him. He must show his most confident and strongest side in front of everyone.

Cowardice before fighting?

Do not!

This is absolutely not allowed.

After feeling Menma's inhumanly powerful chakra fluctuations.

Shibuki, Ajun, and especially Duolan, Fushimi and others below couldn't help but change their expressions.

Up to now, they have never actually seen Menma use his full strength, and the previous battles were just small fights.

And at this moment, we can get a glimpse of the whole picture!

This breath is enough to make ordinary people tremble.

It did inadvertently give Shibuki, Ajun and others a sense of confidence, but when they heard Menma's detailed words.

"Strike first?"

"Time difference? Huh?"

The faces of Shemu, Ajun and others all froze.

"Isn't this inappropriate? Menma-kun, the ones attacking now are the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Leaf Village? Even if they are not attacking with all their strength, their combined strength is absolutely terrifying. We are already struggling to defend, and if we take the initiative to attack, wouldn't that mean we are giving up our own advantages? Wouldn't the defense line we established before have lost its meaning?"

Ajun stood up suddenly, with an expression of disbelief and resolute opposition, and shook his head quickly and said.

This is a decidedly risky move.

This is a strategy that the Afghan army absolutely cannot accept. In his opinion, a solid defense is the best strategy. If they launch an attack and lose the last battle, they will suffer a total defeat!

"I think it's better to be safe, using layers of defense to wear down the enemy's patience. As long as there are a lot of casualties, the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Leaf Village will definitely want to retreat. The most important thing is that the other three major ninja villages can't just sit there and watch. The past three ninja world wars have proved that once one or two ninja villages join the war, the other ninja villages will definitely lose their temper. At that time, it will be our real turning point!"

A very traditional yet cautious approach.

This is also a practice that these small and medium-sized ninja villages have adhered to for decades. Even the Hidden Rain Village led by Hanzo at that time almost never took the initiative to attack. Each time it only focused on attacking the enemy ninjas who entered the core area of ​​the Rain Country.

The purpose is to make these big ninja villages feel that continuing to fight will not be worth the cost and will also give other ninja villages opportunities, thus forcing them to retreat.

This trick has been tried and tested.

Therefore, as soon as Ajun finished speaking.

Shibuki nodded subconsciously.

Duolan, Fushimi and others in the following position also showed expressions of agreement at the same time. They even felt that Menma was too arrogant. Did he really think that the three tailed beasts Jinchuriki would definitely win the battle?

In past wars, there have been examples of tailed beasts being defeated and captured on the battlefield! ?

Not to mention that there are tailed beasts in the Hidden Cloud Village as well!

And there are still two of them!

Taking the initiative is really a tightrope walk and too stupid!

They didn't say these words out loud, but they were evident in their facial expressions.

"What Jun-san said does make sense, but that only applies to the usual situation. The current situation is completely different. If we choose to defend, we will be waiting for death. Please look here!"

Menma stood up at the same time.

The large map that was pulled directly from one side.

What was displayed was the approximate location of their Takigakure Village to Konohagakure Village, as well as the nearest distance to the Cloud Ninja Army led by the Fourth Raikage, as well as a series of small dots in different colors. When everyone present saw this map, the current enemy situation emerged very clearly in their minds.

"We don't know how sincere the alliance between Konoha and Kumogakure is, and we can't predict it, but what is certain is that the two major ninja villages will definitely not be able to act together with one mind, and they are also on guard against each other to a certain extent. This is a gap we can exploit, and the other point is the opportunity given by the Fourth Raikage I just mentioned. Looking at the location here, the Fourth Raikage has already led his troops across the Land of Hot Springs and directly into the Land of Frost, which is less than two days away from our Takigakure Village. However, what about Konoha's troops? Judging from the news we have received so far, they have just been recruited and gathered in the northern border area. It is obvious that they plan to join forces with the Kumogakure ninjas and act together!"

Menma slapped the two areas on the map that were clearly marked with prominent red dots.

After a slight pause, he continued.

"This is a golden opportunity for us. Once the two major ninja villages merge, regardless of whether they have their own ulterior motives, the pressure brought about by this will definitely not be as simple as 1+1=2. As long as our front line is shaken to a certain extent, other ninja villages will definitely come up to share a piece of the pie, especially the Hidden Mist Village!"

Deliberately emphasized language.

It was a look that seemed to have passed by Yugao unintentionally.

People present.

As long as there is nothing wrong with your brain.
