Chapter 211 An important promise

It was also after Shibuki's figure gradually went away.

Menma also restrained the smile on his lips, looked at Mizuno Satoru with a touch of emotion, and said with a little helplessness: "I thought I was disguised very well, I don't know where I was exposed, did you see it, Elder Satoru?"

"No, Yifangjun didn't have any exposure. It was just some of the old man's intuition before death. I always felt that Yifangjun didn't look like Yifangjun, and seemed to be younger. And because of this, I would associate it with other things. Haha, when people get old, they tend to think too much. To be honest, I am not 100% sure. In fact, Yifangjun can continue to play, so why should he be exposed?"

Mizuno Satoru looked at Menma with a smile, and they seemed to be old friends meeting for many years.

It is also as Mizuno Satoru said, many times, lies are not completely exposed at the beginning, just a certain point of exposure will lead to a chain reaction.

Not to mention that he is an old man with rich life experience like Mizuno Satoru.

"Haha, I've been seen through, so why pretend? And I believe Elder Satoru will still make the same judgment, right?"

Menma certainly doesn't believe in this so-called intuition.

It must be that he was exposed somewhere, so that others saw through his "false identity".

But this is not important.

From the moment Mizuno Satoru didn't expose himself in front of Shibuki, everything was doomed.

What's more, as mentioned before.

This is a dying man.

Menma doesn't need to worry too much, Shibuki is not this Elder Satoru.

"Release!"

Menma also directly removed his transformation technique in the first place.

The boy's appearance was restored.

When the red hair caught Mizuno Satoru's eyes.

"Who are you!?"

Although he was prepared, at this moment, Mizuno Satoru still widened his eyes. After all, in today's ninja world, Menma is also famous.

Nine-tailed Jinchūriki.

The son of the Fourth Hokage.

He also defected from the Hidden Leaf Village.

As one of the high-ranking officials of the Hidden Leaf Village, how could Mizuno Satoru not recognize him?

"Please forgive me for using this method, Elder Satoru. After all, you should also know my current situation and why I should do this."

Menma looked at Mizuno Satoru with a peaceful look and said.

"Is that so? You are really excellent, one... no, Menma-kun..."

Mizuno Satoru showed a very shocked expression on his face. He had guessed Menma's countless identities, but he really didn't expect that the "young man" in front of him would be a 12-year-old boy.

"If Shibuki could have half of your intelligence, agility and courage, I wouldn't have to worry about anything."

Mizuno Satoru looked at Menma with a complicated look, then shook his head and said with a very emotional tone.

This is really that people are completely incomparable.

There really is no other candidate, and Shibuki's identity is a bit special, otherwise, Shibuki is really not suitable to be the leader of a ninja village.

Or for a smaller ninja village, such as the Hoshigakure Village and Yugakure Village, Shibuki may be okay, but Takigakure Village is already a T2 existence in the ninja world, and it also has a ninja village with tailed beasts. Shibuki's character is really not enough.

"Hehe, Mr. Shibuki's character is pure and kind, and it is easy to be recognized and respected by many people. Elder Wu doesn't have to worry too much."

Menma smiled lightly and said.

This is not completely a compliment.

The personal charm of a leader depends on many aspects, although Shibuki is indeed far from being an excellent leader.

But Shibuki has a character like this.

If it is in a peaceful era, in a harmonious ninja village, it can still be led well. People still like this kind of gentle leader. Of course, the premise is that there is no external threat.

Otherwise, human instinct will still drive them to follow stronger people who can protect them. This is the nature hidden deep in the hearts of every human being.

"Can Menma-kun protect the life of that child? Can he allow Takigakure to continue to exist?"

This sudden change in style.

Mizuno Satoru said this.

Menma was stunned.

But only a second later, Menma reacted: "I think Elder Satoru misunderstood. I do have some intentions towards Takigakure, but it is not what you are worried about. I am not here to destroy, but for the future, Elder Satoru."

Heaven and earth conscience.

Menma really didn't want to kill Shibuki, or even destroy Takigakure. This is his favorite first 'base candidate', not to mention that he needs Shibuki's cooperation if he wants to infiltrate or even completely control Takigakure in the future.

Just like in the ancient times when Menma lived in his previous life, when powerful officials forced the emperor to abdicate, it would be best to ensure that the emperor could enjoy his old age in peace.

This is what a smart person would do.

If he really killed the emperor, the troubles that would arise from this would be absolutely infinite, unless he was really strong enough to ignore all problems.

But first of all, Menma himself lacks such power now, and secondly, Menma is not such a ruthless person, and he doesn't feel the need to do this.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a peaceful transition?

When Mizuno Satoru heard Menma's words.

The hanging heart above my heart also relaxed.

Mizuno Satoru believed that he still had some sense of judgment about people, just like before he felt that hookah was totally useless.

When he met Menma's eyes, Mizuno Satoru could see the sincerity revealed in Menma's pupils.

Of course, this may be a disguise, but if that's the case, Mizuno Satoru can only accept his fate. Does he have any other choice?

the answer is negative.

He could only choose to believe Menma.

Also choose to trust your own intuition.

"Then I'll leave Takigakure to you, Menma-kun."

Mizuno Satoru bowed slightly and said in a very solemn tone.

Menma also had a solemn look on his face and bowed in return in a very formal manner.

"Elder Satoru, please rest assured that from now on, Takigakure Village will also be my Ninja Village."

He replied loudly with a numb face.

Bigger and stronger.

This is Menma's expectation for Takigakure, and it is also Menma's own plan.

Therefore, Menma had absolutely no intention of deceiving Mizuno Satoru. If Takigakure Village did not become stronger, it would be difficult for him to implement his plan. Even if it was for himself, he would work hard for the development of Takigakure Village.

Therefore, there is only a question of whether Menma can do it, not a question of whether Menma will do it or not, or even deceive Mizuno Satoru.

This is fundamentally different.

"Then, Elder Wu, please take a good rest first. I'll go and deal with those insects in the hookah with Mr. Shibaki."

After Menma bowed again.

His body swayed and he left the place.

And that was after Menma left.

Mizuno Satoru's eyes obviously became slightly distracted, and he could feel his vitality passing away at a rapid speed.

At this moment, it seemed extremely difficult to move his fingers.

‘No, I can’t die yet. I can’t die yet. I must hold on for a little longer. Please, let me hold on for a little longer. . . ’

Mizuno Satoru's eyes slowly closed, and his face seemed to become more and more haggard at that moment.

There was a faint wisp of death that seemed to be entangled all over his body.

The aura of this Elder Wu has also obviously become much weaker.

It's completely like reaching the end of life.
