Chapter 313 Changing Situation

You know, the total number of troops mobilized by the three major ninja villages is a total of 10,000 ninjas. This is already the upper limit of the number of troops mobilized by the five major ninja villages under normal circumstances in the past ninja wars. They are usually to target Each other, now they are fighting for the Takigakure and Kusagakure villages. At first glance, it seems that they are killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.

But since that battle where Kumo Ninja was defeated.

This kind of military strength is so normal that it can no longer be normal.

The eyes of everyone in the ninja world were focused on Takigakure Village again at this moment. The battle between Iwagakure Village and Kumogakure Village in the north was temporarily ignored. After all, it was not that kind of extreme collision.

Now we have entered into a fierce stage of mutual stalemate.

If you want to see it, you still have to look at Konoha's attack on Takigakure Village this time. All countries in the ninja world have a premonition that this battle will really set the pattern of the next ninja world. Once Uzumaki Menma can lead Taki If the Hidden Village withstands the attack led by Konoha.

Then the Taki and Kusanagi Village Alliance can truly become a new major force in the ninja world, surpassing Sunagakure and Kirigakure, and rivaling Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure!

The entire Taki and Kusanagi Village Alliance are also facing a formidable enemy. However, compared with before, the current mentality is only heavy, but there is not much fear, because the battle in Kumogakure Village may not be so real for Kusakunin.

But the Taki-nins have really built up a certain amount of confidence.

They all firmly believe that Menma will definitely lead them to victory in the war again. The difference is that this process may be more difficult and tortuous.

At least until they witness Menma's defeat, the Taki-nins will not lose this spirit.

This is true of Taki-nin.

The same is true for senior officials of Takigakure such as Shibaki, Ajun, Duolan, and Fushimi.

Based on this, Menma passed the received news to the senior officials of Takigakure Village in advance, and held another meeting.

In that political hall.

Although the expressions of Shen Mu, A Jun and others were very serious, the atmosphere around them was not as solemn as before, let alone the feeling of fear and uneasiness.

No reason.

Just because the figure of Menma sitting on the main seat, who was not very majestic, would bring them confidence and security.

And that’s where today’s meeting begins.

Under Shibuki's strong request and the acquiescence of Ajun, Talan and other senior officials of Takigakure Village, Menma sat on the seat where Shibuki had previously sat.

Looking from the center.

To be condescending.

This is the position of the leader.

Menma only declined at the beginning, but when he saw Shibuki's extremely determined attitude, after a second or two of silence, he slowly nodded and agreed.

A refusal can be said to be an act of humility.

But to refuse multiple times, and even when others are firm, is contrived and pretentious.

Anyway, this is the trend.

Menma had a similar plan at the beginning, so there was no need to pretend, so Menma calmly sat down on the main seat.

Shibuki sat in the first seat on the left side with a calm expression.

When Fu finally arrived, he looked at Menma on the main seat and his brother Shibuki on the left, and they were all stunned for a moment subconsciously, but it was only for a few short seconds. within seconds.

Fu then came back to her senses.

This was also a scene for which she had been mentally prepared before.

Grandpa Satoru could have predicted this development when he passed away. Menma's joining would either lead Takigakure to glory or lead Takigakure to destruction.

It is absolutely impossible to continue to exist as mediocre as before.

And now the situation in Takigakure Village seems to be developing towards the first possibility, so it is natural for Menma to sit in that position.

Fu naturally wouldn't say anything about such a development.

At most, I feel that the process is too fast.

It is estimated that even the dead Mizuno Satoru could not have expected that this scene would come so quickly. It can only be said that everything depends on the support and help of his peers.

War is always a double-edged sword.

It is also the most direct method used by ninjas to increase their prestige.

"Everyone is called here today. I think you should know what is going on. This is specific information, not only about Konoha and Kirigakure Village, but also about the trends in Sunagakure Village. You can take a look first."

Menma took out a scroll directly from himself, waved it slightly, and then threw it directly to Shibaki who was in the nearest position.

This comprehensive information content.

Not only was there information from Orochimaru, but there was also evidence obtained from the intelligence system that Menma himself had established during this period of time.

The rest is the information detected by the frontline investigators of Takigakure Village.

After mutual confirmation, we can basically determine the general movements of the three major ninja villages. You must know that no matter which ninja village it is, it is not a small-scale troop dispatch. At present, it seems that the smallest movement is in Sunagakure Village. In Kusagakure Village There are more than 2,000 sand ninjas hoarded at the southwest border of , and it is absolutely impossible for such a large-scale configuration to be silent.

Shenmu and others were also quickly circulating this information scroll.

Menma himself unconsciously tapped the table in front of him with his right index finger. The situation was different from what he had predicted before.

The plan must also undergo major changes.

Especially this time Konoha clearly came with determination.

In order to perfectly solve this invasion, Menma naturally needs to consider all aspects of the problem. As for the information Orochimaru delivered, there is another piece of information attached to it, which is the information about the arrival of his stupid brother.

Menma didn't really care.

They have no feelings themselves, and the so-called 'bond' was completely severed by themselves in the Valley of the End.

He's not Sasuke.

It was impossible to be convinced by Naruto.

The path he wants to take is determined.

It was absolutely the opposite of Naruto.

Of course, Menma would never kill his younger brother. This could be regarded as the last act of repayment to his parents in this life, to repay their kindness for giving him life in this life. Menma had already thought about it. How to deal with Naruto.

Didn't he shout that he would take him back to Konoha even if his hands and feet were broken?

If only this stupid brother had stopped him again.

Then he would actually break Naruto's hands and feet, and then imprison him forever, until he was completely successful or defeated, and that would be the moment for his stupid brother to regain his freedom.

This was his last act of mercy.

As for the others?

That's not within the scope of Menma's 'mercy'. Anyone who blocks his progress is the one who deserves to die!

'Naruto, this is also the fate that our brothers must face. You can't stop me unless you kill me. ’

Menma took a deep breath, and a sharp look appeared in his pupils.

Not long after.

The following Shenmu people have already read the information recorded in the scroll.

Compared with previous participants.

This time, there was another figure among the participants.

With his slightly pale skin, straight figure, and conspicuous black single ponytail hair, he is the one who is determined to be loyal to Menma forever, and can currently be regarded as the incarnation of the Box of Bliss.

This time too, Menma specifically called Muzan over.

Through this period of adaptation and suppression.

There are also two adjustments to facial numbness.

Muzan has gradually adapted to the influence of the Box of Bliss. He can be called the host of the Box of Bliss for the time being. Wugou can channel the Box of Bliss anytime and anywhere, and he is transforming into Satoru to fight.

Of course there is a time limit.

The consumption of chakra is a terrifying figure.

But with Menma as a chakra providing unlimited cup refills and a perpetual motion machine, there is no need to worry too much about the second problem.

As for the time limit, it depends on Muzan's current willpower.

As long as you can withstand the erosion of the Box of Bliss and keep your true heart, then time can continue as long as possible. If you cannot withstand it, then you have to cancel the form of enlightenment.

Considering the intensity of the enemies that need to be faced this time.

Yugao was injured in the previous battle and has not fully recovered yet. Menma called Muzan over. This is also a shadow-level combat power, and it is also the top one. Although it is very big limits.

But the destructive power exerted on the battlefield is also unparalleled.

Facing a strong enemy, the current Wuju may still be a lot less useful.

But facing ordinary ninjas, it would be absolute massacre.

Satoru has absolutely high defense and high attack, and is a big killer weapon in Menma's hand. When will Muzan be able to perfectly adapt to and use Satoru's power, then there will really be few people in the ninja world who are qualified. Confronted Muzan head-on.

This thing is at least comparable to the peak Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki.

And in some aspects it will surpass the Eight-Tails.

Not to mention ordinary ninjas, ordinary Kage level is not enough in front of Satoru.

When facing Shibaki and the others, Menma also briefly introduced Muzan. After all, they would still have to reveal themselves when the war started, so it was better to make Shibaki and the others mentally prepared earlier.

This also resulted in the fact that even though Shibuki and the others were under control, there was still a little bit of strange color in the eyes looking towards Muzan unconsciously.

As the incarnation of the Box of Bliss, Muzan can basically be regarded as half-enlightened now. Naturally, he is very sensitive to such emotional fluctuations, but he does not take it seriously and can face it calmly.

The person he was loyal to was Menma.

The only people he cared about were his father and his childhood sweetheart.

Muzan almost never paid attention to the attention of other people.

"It's really a big deal, Konoha. There were already three or four thousand ninjas before. This time we have sent reinforcements. More than five thousand ninjas, and the famous Jiraiya is leading the team. We really plan to do that." We are going to destroy Takigakure Village in one battle.”

Shibuki, who was on the left side, also shook his head slightly and said with a very emotional tone.

There must still be some subconscious fear.

Even if he defeated Yunyin Village.

But after all, the inertial mentality created over the past few decades is not so easy to get rid of, and if you have to dig into the details, Konoha Hidden Village is still the overlord in the ninja world.

There will definitely still be pressure.

Not to mention that this time there are also Kirigakure and Sand Hidden Village raiding formations.

However, as long as he looks at Menma on the main seat, Shibuki will feel much calmer. He believes in Grandpa Satoru's choice and his own intuition.

What's more important is that Menma has already used a battle to prove himself.

He is the one who has the ability to lead Takigakure Village to create glory.

"This is clear information about Konoha and the Kirigakure ninja's advance, but in Sunagakure Village, Menma-kun...cough... Sir, are you sure that they really have the intention to invade Kusagakure Village? If it's just the gathering of troops on the border. , can also be regarded as a kind of self-protection, right?”

In the lower position of Shibuki.

Ajun also frowned, looked at Menma with a look of inquiry and asked softly.

Even if I change my words, it still feels a little unnatural.

But this is the only way to go.

Who in Takigakure Village doesn't know that Menma has become the de facto leader of Ninja Village? It's just a procedure, a ceremony.

"Well, it is true that this aspect is still not 100% certain, but it is also because of this that we cannot relax our vigilance in Caoyin Village and cannot send too many people over. The front line there is still very important to us. Hidden Village may not have the courage to take the initiative to attack, but if we transfer too many troops there, it will encourage their unnecessary ambitions. It is best to maintain the current situation. "

Menma shook his head slightly and said.

Muzan, the largest combat force in Kusakure Village, had already been summoned by him. He could have filled up a large amount of troops. If he continued to recruit Kusanagi, regardless of the significance, Menma even felt that if he really Give such an order.

Wuwei is 100% willing to obey and cooperate, but the same cannot be said for the grass ninjas below. The doorstep of Caoyin Village is faced with the threat of sand ninja. Even if it is a sand ninja that has weakened a lot, the natural pressure is still there. Existing, Menma cannot bring them stability, but instead intensifies their panic.

This is not something a smart leader would do.

Letting the grass ninjas confront the sand ninjas is the most appropriate choice at this stage, and Menma also believes that Wuwei can stabilize the situation.

There are no strong people in Sand Hidden Village now. Ma Ji is at the quasi-shadow level at best, and even barely interested. Wuwei is enough to deal with it.

Unless Sand Hidden Village really wants to take the gamble and mobilize in full force, there is really no way.

But Menma didn't think Ma Ji would have such courage.

I don’t even believe that Chiyo and Ebizo would allow Ma Ji to take such a risk.

Konoha couldn't afford that kind of price.

This is Menma's most reasonable judgment based on reality. As long as they haven't decided a decisive victory here, the most they can do in Sunagakure Village is a tentative attack. A desperate decisive battle is almost impossible to happen. things.
