Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Menma's words further clarified his attitude.

As for what are the unshakable principles and what are the negotiable contents.

That is in Menma's own hands.

These five daimyo can still understand this point very clearly. They have been monarchs for so many years and have used such methods many times. In this regard, they are true masters.

Menma is very clear about this, so he doesn't beat around the bush. Except for some words that are not suitable to be said openly, everything else is laid out very directly. What matters is where the bottom line between each other is. At present, Menma has an all-round advantage!

Menma can control the bottom line of these daimyos.

But the daimyos need to be wary, or should we even say afraid of the power that Menma holds. If they anger him and he turns against them, they will have to pay with their lives!

Being willing to come here to attend the meeting actually means that their attitude is quite clear, and Menma grasped this point.

"That's true, but isn't it a bit too hasty to establish a country and change everything in the past? Especially the personnel changes. I think we can discuss it further, right?"

The daimyo of the Land of Earth pondered for a moment, then looked at Menma and said carefully.

"Yes, Your Excellency Tianying, I also feel that making so many adjustments at once is not in line with the general rules. It will easily cause problems, right? Can we slow down the pace a little? Just merge them into one country first, and adjust the positions later?"

The Daimyo of the Wind Country also spoke with a gentle tone.

"Of course, we think there are no problems with other terms and conditions. Everything can be implemented according to Lord Tianying's opinion."

If someone plays the good guy, someone else has to play the bad guy.

The central idea is definitely the most clear one, that is, this gathering is 100% determined to establish a unified country, and the five daimyo will not raise any objections to this.

Chapter 588: An Extremely Smooth Conference

The situation is better than people.

I had to bow my head.

The fact that they came here to participate in this rally has already meant that they have acknowledged the idea of ​​establishing a unified country. The only difference is the allocation of internal positions. The best thing is naturally to change the name but not the substance. Under a national system, governance is carried out in different areas. These daimyos and nobles can only change their titles at most, and then continue to maintain their rule at a certain price. At most, there will be one more Menma above, which will change the previous pattern of the country ruling the ninja village.

Anyway, it’s all in this form.

These big names will definitely not care about these false reputations anymore.

But even so.

We have to be extremely optimistic in our estimation.

The five daimyos still had a certain degree of self-awareness, knowing that the probability of reaching such an outcome was infinitely close to 0, and that their status and power would definitely change, but they really did not expect such a huge change to unfold, and there was no guarantee for their status and power.

So much has to be paid for the benefits.

"Haha, that's not the way to look at it. Your Highnesses, it is precisely because we are in a time of great change that we need to make drastic changes. Cutting the Gordian knot is the most appropriate way. After all, some people cannot keep up with the changes of the times and will only immerse themselves in the past. Such people will only become termites of the times. If we still let them control the pace, I think this is a wrong judgment. What do you think? The garbage of the times should be completely cleared away."

There was a hint of sharpness in Menma's eyes, which was an extremely faint murderous intent that was deliberately released.

Even though this murderous intent was under extreme control and not even one ten-thousandth of it, the five daimyos on the opposite side had all lived a life of luxury for many years and had never faced such a situation.

Menma's words were almost a naked threat.

It also made the five daimyos' faces look extremely ugly.

Of course, blindly forcing pressure will definitely cause a strong backlash. After Menma warned the five daimyos not to challenge his bottom line, he changed the subject and continued with a smile: "However, we can still discuss some specific details. There are trash of the times, and there are elites of the times. It's just that this requires specific problems and specific analysis. It depends on what kind of ability each person has and what kind of contribution they can make!"

It was a very clear step of voluntarily giving in, but it was also a naked declaration of a deal.

Want to gain higher status and power?

That depends on how well you cooperate. People who are innocent and sensible can continue to shine in the blueprint of the new country. People who are stuck in the quagmire and deliberately resist, then there is nothing to say. Clearing away these garbage is the responsibility of the times!

Menma's words had been made very clear.

The attitude is laid bare before us.

Instead of simply condemning the whole meeting, this meeting left some room for discussion.

It really made the five daimyos feel helpless and uncomfortable. Without power, they could only be slaughtered.

"Let's just leave it at that. At least we have gained some benefits, right?"

at this moment.

Similar thoughts emerged in the minds of the five daimyo at the same time.

Menma's small retreat became the last straw that broke the camel's back for the five daimyo. At least they could comfort themselves that their joint efforts did have some effect.

Although it is still unclear at the moment where the specific results are.

But human beings are such creatures that as long as there is a convincing reason, they can definitely convince themselves.

No one else is needed to help.

The ability to self-adjust is just that strong.

It is called: following the heart.

"Well, what Lord Tianying said makes sense."

"That is indeed the case."

"yes..."

The daimyos were silent for a while, looked at each other, and then spoke one after another to agree to Menma's conditions.

"Haha, I knew that your highnesses must be very understanding of justice!"

Menma smiled and said without surprise.

Shikaku and Dodai, who were sitting in the back, looked at each other, and their slightly tense heartstrings slowly relaxed.

The central idea can be agreed upon.

Then the progress of subsequent issues will become extremely smooth.

In addition to the five daimyo's own families, Menma also needs to negotiate with them personally, namely some relatively more important nobles in the five countries. For example, the Shima family, who have almost always held positions above the Minister of the Interior in the Fire Country for hundreds of years, are the most steadfast confidants of the Fire Country Daimyo. The Fire Country Daimyo must obtain corresponding benefits for them. The same is true for the other four countries.

There aren't many such noble families, but there are about 20 of them. Menma still needs to give some face to the daimyos, but the premise is that it cannot conflict with the previous principles. If there are scums among these nobles who do evil things, Menma will definitely get rid of these people.

Even a little bit of pulling represents huge benefits.

This meeting lasted for four or five hours. It was not until late at night that the five daimyos left the meeting room and returned to their respective residences, led by servants specially arranged by Menma, with an extremely tired but relatively satisfied look on their faces.

"Ah! I'm really tired. This meeting is more tiring than a battle."

After several daimyos left, Menma twisted his neck and said with a very tired look.

It's not effortful, but it's mentally and physically demanding.

This is also self-inflicted. If you want to minimize the death toll and have a peaceful transition, you have to go through this process.

"I thought those daimyos were going to be tougher. It seems our conditions are still above their expectations."

Xianglin, who was standing by, made Menma another cup of tea, and then rubbed his shoulders naturally, while speaking in a tone that seemed to be a little regretful.

"Haha, that's not the case. On the contrary, the conditions we proposed are lower than their psychological expectations. However, this expectation refers to the overall psychological bottom line. From their own perspective, the conditions we offered are relatively acceptable. The most important point is that in this negotiation, it's not that we are afraid of the other party, but that the other party is worried about us turning against us. The initiative has always been in our hands."

Menma said with a small smile.

It is true that Menma is tolerant and wants to make the world less quarrelsome and more peaceful so that the order of the new world can be established more quickly. Otherwise, Menma would not do so.

In his previous life, he was a person who was naturally afraid of trouble.

Everything in this life can be said to be half voluntary and half forced.

"Too."

Karin nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, now that the main body here has been decided, there won't be any problems later. The rest of the organizational work will be handed over to you, Karin. I'd also like to trouble Shikaku-san and Dodai-san to assist Karin and make sure that there aren't any problems on any side."

Menma paused, then continued.

"Ah, I know, Menma."

"Yes, Master Tianying, please rest assured that we will definitely assist Master Xianglin in handling all the subsequent government affairs!"

Lu Jiu and Tu Tai also stood up immediately and responded with a look of respect.

Before, I was just a ninja.

But now they can participate in government affairs at the national level. For Shikaku and Dodai, this is both novel and a challenge of their own. But no matter what, they are standing at the forefront of the world's change. Whether there is a bright future ahead or they will fall into an endless dark hell, that is something only the goddess of fate can know.

At least!

They will work hard for it.

This is for the world, for the country, for all the people, and for themselves.

"Well, the stage is ready, we are just waiting for everyone to come on stage."

Menma smiled slightly, turned around and looked through the huge floor-to-ceiling window on the left, at the brightly lit night scene of the ninja village outside the window. A different kind of light also flashed in Menma's pupils.

Once the tone is set, there won’t be any problems with subsequent conferences.

Even the official meeting the next day had hundreds of people in attendance (in addition to the daimyo, each country also had two or three important officials in attendance, and the lowest-ranking officials were all the ministers of the inner chamber).

But after the daimyo of the five major countries took the lead in agreeing with the series of national reorganization systems proposed by Menma on behalf of the Hikari Village, there will be no more waves. The leaders of various countries are not fools. It is obvious from their attitude that they know that the five major countries have already reached an agreement with Menma.

So what's there to hesitate about?

There is no reason for anyone to be the first to stick out, or to be the one that is doomed to die.

The national reorganization proposal submitted to the meeting was passed unanimously.

The new country was established in the form of a federation.

The highest authority is the Parliament!

It has a ruling body - the cabinet, and then different departments are established according to different divisions of labor.

The names of the countries do not need to be changed, as everyone has become a group. Of course, a supreme law was also issued, which directly stipulates that if any member state wants to withdraw from the federation, it must go through a referendum in the country, with at least two-thirds of the people agreeing, and then it can be approved by the central government.

Menma must prepare backup measures for some possible problems in the future. If Menma is still alive, or still stays on this planet, there is naturally no need for any written regulations to restrict him.

But what if Menma isn't here?

These are issues that must be considered. Of course, no matter how good such measures are, they cannot withstand the prying of the door by someone with real ulterior motives. However, if Menma tries to be as safe as possible, it will still lead to the country being divided again.

Then we can only say it is God's will.

In other words, there is nothing to force.

Anyway, Zheng Ma has tried his best to do everything he can.

The conference that ended successfully also directly announced the establishment of a new country. The relationship between the ninja village and the country also changed from the previous subtle two-way relationship to a completely subordinate relationship.

Although there are still many detailed issues that need to be resolved one by one in the future, now that the overall framework has been established, these problems can be solved slowly, and Menma can finally free up time to do his own things.

Solving the problem of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki is naturally the top priority.

It's just that this big BOSS is not only powerful, but also difficult to find his whereabouts. Even if Menma has the reference of the original plot and knows who Isshiki is possessed by at the moment, it still takes time to find such a person in such a big world. Menma doesn't want to act rashly before he is ready, as that will only alert the enemy. What Menma wants is a fatal blow!

So before taking formal action.

Menma needs some more preparation.

One is to give Naruto and Sasuke more time to adapt to the strength they have just acquired. Whether it is the Rinnegan or the Truth-Seeking Ball, they are not powers that can be easily mastered. Giving the two more time will allow them to fully master them in a true sense.

It is truly an existence at the level of the Six Paths.

The other is to improve your own strength.

Menma's strength has been almost stagnant ever since he used the giant Rinnegan on the moon to forcibly extract Hamura's chakra and merge it with Hamura's chakra in his own body, fully stimulating the power of his bloodline and completing his life level transformation.

Next I want to become stronger!

It’s not just the so-called cultivation.

But you need to eat it!

Just like the Otsutsuki clan traveling through the starry sky, planting trees on countless planets, and producing chakra fruits, they use the energy of an entire planet to improve themselves.

Now Menma needs to improve himself by devouring various "energies"!

Things like planting trees.

Not to mention that Menma may not be able to do it at the moment, even if he can do it, Menma will not do it. In order to make himself stronger, he sacrificed countless innocent lives. Although Menma considers himself not a good person, he can't do such a bloody and cruel thing.
