Chapter 344: Changing Position

Afterwards, Menma, Wuwei and Shibuki also conducted a very careful discussion on the issue of merging ninja villages. The most critical link was to obtain the approval of most of the senior ninjas in the ninja villages.

These people are the backbones of the two ninja villages, and as long as they are not the kind of lonely loners, those who can be promoted to ninjas will basically have a relatively large group of followers. After all, geniuses are still a minority. Most of the guys who can be promoted to ninjas usually have to be in their twenties or thirties. In a dozen or even twenty years, they will have trained a group of subordinates or have good companions.

Not to mention those ninjas who hold important positions.

Obtaining the approval of such a ninja means the approval of a group of people, as well as the support of multiple families behind him. Of course, under normal circumstances, it only needs to be focused on the ninjas. Ordinary ninjas basically will not speak on such matters. They only care about whether the ninja village can protect their safety and whether the ninja village can provide them with the benefits they want.

Gaining initial support from the two major ninja villages is the first step. Next, we need to start with the high-level nobles and politicians headed by the daimyo of the two countries, at least to prevent them from opposing. Under the current system, the relationship between the country and the ninja village is still a default iron law, and Menma has no intention of breaking this rule.

Eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time.

After completing these two steps, the merger of the two ninja villages can be officially started.

The reorganization of the team, the merger of departments, the redefinition of rules and regulations, and a series of miscellaneous affairs, etc.

That night, the three of them almost talked until late at night before they finished.

Then.

Start the next day.

Wuwei and Shibuki took action separately.

Convincing others is also a very time-consuming and laborious task. As for the issue of changing the village leader proposed by Shibuki before, Menma also put it aside for the time being. Anyway, the work of merging the two villages will be launched.

There is no need to rush to take the position of the leader of Takigakure Village.

Moreover, now everyone in the ninja village will assume that Menma is the supreme leader of the village. This is what Menma has gained with his own strength and Shibuki's active cooperation.

Anyone who sees Menma now needs to bow and greet him with the respectful title of "Menma-sama".

In the Kusagakure Village, Menma also gained a high prestige among thousands of Kusagakure ninjas through this war and Wuwei's intentional or unintentional guidance. This is why Menma dared to directly promote the merger of the two ninja villages.

As for the daimyo of the two countries, professionals are needed.

The village has always had people responsible for contacting the national government. Whether it is Taki ninja or Kusagakure ninja, there are corresponding responsible personnel in the capitals of the two countries. These people can come forward to negotiate.

The main person in charge, Menma, was also handed over to Karin.

In the newly established Great Ninja Village, Karin will be Menma's most trusted housekeeper for internal affairs and logistics, not only because Karin is Menma's closest person, but also because after more than a year of experience, Karin's growth is obvious to all.

Menma also believes that in future work.

Karin will definitely be able to organize these affairs in an orderly manner.

A plan that will be carried out step by step and in an orderly manner.

While Menma and others were preparing their own plans, in the northern region, the Hidden Rock Village finally responded relatively.

The Third Tsuchikage obviously did not intend to turn against Menma at this stage. First, their Hidden Rock Village also needed time to digest the dividends obtained from this war. Second, even as the victor, the Hidden Rock Village did not pay any price. The casualties of two or three thousand Hidden Rock Ninjas were real.

Even if it had a considerable advantage.

But it was the Hidden Cloud Village after all.

Moreover, the strength of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is very terrifying. It is already precious to be able to win at such a price.

Under such a situation.

Of course, Ohnoki still has to take a safer approach. In addition, he has to consider the combat power of Menma's side.

That is no longer something that their Iwagakure Village can deal with.

Ohnoki is not interested in playing with self-destruction and making wedding clothes for other ninja villages. Even if you don't look at it, aren't the two unlucky people of Cloud Village and Mist Village the best examples right now! ?

If you really want to take action, you have to choose the most appropriate time.

Therefore, at the end of the war, when he received the news from Menma, this third generation Tsuchikage did not hesitate at all and directly gave a reply that was in line with the "covenant".

Then.

Just at the moment when the reply was sent out.

Ohnoki then sent his most trusted person to secretly go to Konohagakure Village after everything was over.

Make arrangements in advance for possible collisions in the future.

It must be said that this is the most important quality for a ninja village leader. In his eyes, the only basis for judging all affairs and actions is the interests of the village.

"Father, are we going to contact Konoha now? Isn't it a bit too urgent?"

In the exclusive office of the Tsuchikage in the Hidden Rock Village.

Huang Tu, who had just returned from the front line, looked at Oonoki on the main seat with a pale and weak look and asked.

Now that there are only the father and son in the office, they can speak more directly.

"Well, to be honest, it does seem a little urgent, but that Uzumaki Menma-kun has repeatedly exceeded the expectations of an old man like me. I always have a hunch that if some measures are not taken, this kid will become 100% uncontrollable in the future."

Ohnoki did not deny his son's words, but nodded and said with a very emotional tone.

This battle.

It really shattered Ohnoki's three views.

It's like, you originally thought that someone would get a maximum of 60 points in the exam, but the fact is that his final score is 100 points, and what's more exaggerated is that this 100 points may not even be the upper limit of his ability.

The 100 points are just because the full score is 100 points.

Ohnoki has already raised the risk factor of Menma to the extreme. In just over a year, Menma has undergone such a dramatic change. Ohnoki always feels that it is too dreamy.

"Indeed, the strength shown by this Menma-kun is too terrifying. Even that Jiraiya-sama cannot suppress him. He is only 13 years old now, far from the peak of ninja. Could he be the next one..."

Huangtu nodded in agreement, and when he said the last sentence, he seemed to have some concerns and chose to remain silent.

Ohnoki certainly understood what his son meant by that.

It should even be said that Ohnoki has real skin pain. After all, Huangtu is only a ninja of this era and has not fully witnessed the terrifying strength of the two.

Ohnoki has the "fortune" to feel what it means to truly oppress the ninja world.

Under the gaze of that pair of scarlet Sharingan.

Ohnoki did not even have the courage to start a resistance.

That is a gloomy existence like the real hell Shura, and it is the haze that will never go away in Ohnoki's heart.

Will Menma become like those two?

Ohnoki has no way of knowing.

It should also be said that from a general perspective, this is almost impossible. The history of ninjas has been thousands of years, but in these thousands of years, there are only two guys, Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara. Ohnoki is unwilling to believe in such a possibility from the bottom of his heart.

But what if it really happens! ?

Uzumaki Menma.

It has broken his own cognition more than once.

A young boy of only 13 years old, where is his growth limit? Ohnoki really can't see it. The only thing Ohnoki can be sure of is that the trembling feeling in his heart is so real and so strong.

"Ah, Uzumaki Menma will definitely be the biggest enemy of our Iwagakure in the future. All the actions that follow will be carried out around this nine-tailed kid!!"

A touch of extreme sharpness also emerged in Ohnoki's slightly turbid pupils.

The situation in the ninja world has changed suddenly.

Today's allies may not necessarily be tomorrow's enemies.

The relationship between countries and ninja villages is always based on power and interests. Friendship? Trust?

It's not that there can't be such a thing.

But everything still depends on the current situation.

Hashirama Senju and Naruto Uzumaki are the most typical naive people. As friends, such people are reliable and reassuring, but as the leaders of a force, they are the most irresponsible, because the starting point of all their things, the most core one is definitely not the interests and safety of their own forces. It's not that they won't consider these.

But they will put other idealistic things on a par with this point.

This is the mistake that a leader should not make the most.

That is, the strength of the two is strong enough.

Otherwise, he would be the stupidest leader. Of course, this is not an objective judgment, but Menma's own subjective opinion. If you insist on saying it is personal prejudice, then you can say that Menma looks down on the so-called "innocent idealists", which will destroy a country and a ninja village.

Leader!

You must be down-to-earth and see your position and identity clearly.

Therefore.

When the news from Ohnoki came.

Menma was not surprised at all. This was completely within Menma's expectations. As the leader of the Hidden Rock Village, if he did not even have this awareness and judgment, it would be a strange thing.

"Menma, should we also take some countermeasures? We can't really let that old guy arrange it so arbitrarily, right?"

Different types and degrees of intelligence received from both the light and dark channels.

That was also several days later.

Karin, who had already returned to Takigakure Village and officially took on the role of Menma's butler, also came to Menma, who was absorbed in the laboratory, when she confirmed this series of important information. After reporting, she looked at Menma with a hint of worry and asked softly.

Before, they had to fight against the four major ninja villages at once. Now, if they have to add Iwagakure Village, wouldn't the whole world be their enemy?

Let alone other things, when she thought that once the five major ninja villages burst out with all their strength, they could gather at least 70,000 to 80,000 ninja troops, Karin's heart couldn't help but tense up. That's a full tenfold difference in combat power.

Not to mention the gaps in other aspects.

No matter how confident Xiang Rin is, he will never think that they can fight against so many enemies. Unless his own Menma's strength can really reach the level of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara in the past, then no matter how many enemies come, they are just Delivery of food.

But is this likely?

Xiang Ling himself couldn't believe it. That was a terrifying existence that could overwhelm the entire ninja world alone.

After a thousand years, there have only been two people like this.

He has confidence in Mian Ma, but he is not such a methodical person.

Therefore, all plans and arrangements must be as close to your own needs as possible and consistent with the actual situation.

"Haha, there is no need. Xiang Rin, do you still need to make more preparations for the relationship between the five major ninja villages? Even if you don't look at the past decades, even this war can be seen very clearly. Not to mention more, Can the Kirigakure still trust Konoha? Is it possible for the Cloud Hidden Village to cooperate with the Iwagakure Village? The Sunagakure Village is a seriously ill and dying beast. We also knew the old man’s thoughts from the beginning. One result of using it is that it is so direct. What he wants to do is his power and freedom. We only need to follow the established pace. Their opportunity has been lost forever, and the dominance has completely fallen to us. In hand, Xianglin."

Menma said with a slight smile.

"From now on, our biggest enemy will no longer be the so-called five great ninja villages, but another one."

"Are you talking about the Akatsuki organization? Is this organization really that dangerous? Could it be that Menma, collecting tailed beasts, and the legendary reincarnation eye were Orochimaru-san's deliberate misleading and misinformation to us? Cheating?"

Xianglin pursed her lips, and her fiery red eyes showed full of suspicion at this moment.

"It will only be more dangerous than you think, Xianglin. There is no need to doubt this. But this is all for later. At present, we still have to focus on the merger of Ninja Village. I will have some things that I can't deal with recently. If we take action, we need you to pay more attention, Xianglin. Even if we can integrate the two major ninja villages faster, it will be a good thing for us."

Menma nodded gently and said warmly.

"Well, I understand. Don't worry, Menma. I will definitely get all the preliminary matters settled within three months at most!"

Xianglin nodded seriously and said.

Three months is certainly not a short period of time, but for the merger of two ninja villages, it is already a very short period of time.

Although violence can indeed solve most problems, some problems are beyond the reach of violence. Even if it can be done forcefully, it will definitely leave endless troubles. In the past, it was 'barefoot'

Menma can do a little bit of mischief.

Now it's time to 'put on the shoes', so Menma must comply with the rules and never let his own whims run wild again.

The future that Menma wants is a future with a new order, not an existence of chaos and disorder.

This point must be made clear.
