Chapter 131 Intelligence and Ideas

Xianglin broke away slightly.

Menma, who was aware of it, naturally let go of his hands and took two steps back. The moment he left that embrace, Xianglin subconsciously became a little disappointed. The moment he realized this .

Xianglin herself felt ashamed.

How could I be so unreserved?

Xianglin quickly took a deep breath to calm down her mood, but she still looked a little shy and gently stirred her hair.

Menma also looked like he didn't notice at all, and directly changed the subject and said: "Have you stayed here in the past month? Have they done anything to you?"

"Well, since I was taken away from Konoha by Orochimaru-san, I have been staying here. I haven't been asked to do anything special. I was asked to draw a little blood, and then I couldn't leave this area. The rest was gone. what."

Xianglin shook his head slightly and said.

"Draw blood?"

Menma's brows also frowned subconsciously.

Orochimaru is a guy who really doesn't have any patience when it comes to scientific research. When he sees something he wants to study, he doesn't want to wait at all.

But fortunately, it was just some blood.

"What? Isn't this okay?"

When Xianglin saw Menma's expression, his little face suddenly showed a nervous look, fearing that he had done something wrong.

"It's nothing, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter, but from now on, just stay with me, Xianglin, and then tell me about your experience during this period of time, as well as some information about this place."

Menma shook his head slightly and said warmly.

"Um!"

Xianglin also nodded heavily.

Following from that.

Xiang Rin told Menma in great detail some of the intelligence information she had obtained during this period.

While Menma listened, he was also silently calculating in his heart.

It must also be said that Orochimaru is indeed a rare talent. This not only refers to his strength as a ninja and scientific research capabilities, but also his commanding ability. Not to mention many things, such as Danzo There is no comparison in front of Orochimaru.

Every root must be controlled by the art of tongue-erasing. This is indeed one of the best ways to prevent information leakage, but it is not a sign that Danzo does not trust his subordinates! ?

Orochimaru doesn't need such means. He has a large number of people under his command who are willing to die for him.

Things like curse seals are not something to control the subordinates at all, but are used to enhance the strength of the subordinates.

At most, it can only be regarded as a back-up that Orochimaru left for himself.

Orochimaru never relied on curse seals to forcibly control his subordinates.

In his opinion.

That is the most despicable method.

Kimimaro, Guren, Yakushi Kabuto, and the four sound ninjas all obeyed and followed Orochimaru for one reason or another.

This is even more true with the founding of the Sound Ninja Village.

Orochimaru can establish such a huge force in such a short period of time, which is already very revealing.

However, the Sound Ninja Village is already somewhat of a strong-willed one. Ten years of preparation have allowed the Sound Ninja Village to have over a thousand ninjas. This time, thousands of ninjas have already been included in the Konoha collapse plan. Hundreds of people.

Judging from Xiang Rin's own perception, the number of ninjas that can be explored in Orochimaru's exclusive stronghold is less than three to four hundred. Most of them are still very weak people, and only a few can reach the jounin level. inside.

'It seems that even if Konoha doesn't come to pursue us later, this stronghold is still semi-destroyed. . . ’

Menma thought silently in his mind.

"Um, Menma, do we just want to stay here forever?"

Xianglin's face seemed to show a trace of tangle and hesitation, but finally she found the courage and asked timidly while looking at Menma.

"Well, at least it's impossible for us to leave here in the short term. Xianglin, not to mention the previous deal with Orochimaru. At this stage, we also need Orochimaru, whether it is your Uzumaki clan blood or mine. identity."

Menma nodded and said in a solemn tone.

In the conversation just now.

Menma also told his identity in an understatement, and also briefly explained why he wanted to leave Konoha. He already regarded Xiang Rin as his companion, and he was the only companion he could truly trust at this stage. Of course Menma needs to tell Xiang Rin some important information.

It should be said that Menma's identity did have a great impact on Xiang Rin, and it is understandable why Menma wanted to leave Konoha. Isn't this the same environment as her in Kusugakure Village?

The same is not recognized by others.

Just as ostracized.

It’s the same as losing your loved ones forever.

At this moment, Xiang Rin felt that he and Menma were so similar and so close like never before, and the feeling of intimacy, dependence, and trust in his heart became much stronger.

"Of course, this is only a temporary arrangement. I have other ideas, but it will take time to realize them."

Menma looked at Xiang Rin with a soft look and said.

This is really not Menma deliberately comforting Xianglin, but Menma does have a series of plans of his own.

Orochimaru is just a springboard for himself after all.

He is different from Sasuke, who is obsessed with revenge against Uchiha Itachi. The so-called revival of the Uchiha clan has been clearly shown in the original work. Sasuke does not have a complete plan at all, let alone actual operation, and has always been just talking about it.

Of course, if Sasuke really wants to revive the Uchiha clan, the first thing to solve is the problem of the clan members.

One person cannot revive a ninja clan.

Even if he becomes the strongest in the ninja world, it is the same.

And Menma has his own specific goals and plans.

The first step is to leave Konoha and completely master his own freedom. At present, it can only be regarded as half achieved. After all, he is also dependent on Orochimaru here. It is just a good thing to say that he is a collaborator.

It is not really 100% equal to Orochimaru.

Menma himself is also very clear about this.

Therefore, at this stage, making himself stronger is the primary goal.

"Well, I believe you, Menma."

Karin tilted her head back and nodded obediently. Although Karin didn't know what Menma's plan was, she didn't think she needed to know. In her opinion, she just needed to follow Menma closely and become his necessary helper.
