The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan

Naruto nodded as if he understood, and then as if he thought of something, he suddenly turned his head to look at Jiraiya who had just finished paying the bill and stepped out, and asked loudly.

"Haha, of course there is no problem. There is no problem at all in guiding you two."

Jiraiya raised his eyebrows, and then laughed and nodded without hesitation.

Menma is also the child of Minato and Kushina. He was unable to take care of him before for various reasons. Now is the time.

Menma can't never know who his parents are, right?

But what Jiraiya didn't know was that Menma already knew about this.

When Menma heard Naruto's words, his face was stunned, and his mind couldn't help but recall the relationship between Jiraiya and the 'Nine-tailed Jinchuriki Naruto' in the original book.

When I watched it before, I felt how warm and touching it was.

When Jiraiya died in battle.

At that time, I was still very young in my previous life. Outside the screen, I felt sad like Naruto inside.

But he in this life.

He is Menma Uzumaki.

He has no good feelings towards Jiraiya.

Because the 12 years of vacancy and 12 years of responsibility cannot be made up by the so-called companionship later.

After the nail is nailed to the wall, even if it is pulled out again, the hole of the nail on the wall still exists.

He is Menma Uzumaki, not Naruto Uzumaki.

He can't forget all the unfair treatment and hatred with the heart of a saint, and then be grateful for the so-called kindness.

Therefore, Menma also smiled and shook his head and said: "Then I don't need to trouble Master Jiraiya, because I am doing basic training during this period."

"Basic training?"

Naruto looked puzzled.

"Well, it's kunai throwing, and physical training. I think ninjas still pay more attention to basic training content. In this way, it is a very good stabilization of our own strength, and as long as the foundation is solid, the improvement of strength will become more obvious."

Menma replied softly.

This is certainly not Menma talking nonsense.

Ninjas need to focus on their basic training.

A typical example is Might Guy.

He has been practicing the most basic training for countless years.

"Huh? Is it true?"

Naruto's eyes lit up when he heard that he could become stronger.

"What Menma said makes sense. Ninjas don't become particularly strong just by learning a lot of ninjutsu. Of course, you have to learn ninjutsu, but you have to learn ninjutsu that suits you, and you must never lose the basics. This is the real way to practice."

Jiraiya also continued Menma's words and said with a smile.

"Since you have your own plan, then follow your own pace. You and Naruto should work hard for the Chunin Exam in a month."

Looking at Menma, who not only looks a bit like Minato, but also has a personality and thinking similar to Minato, Jiraiya's pupils also revealed a touch of relief.

"Yes, Master Jiraiya, then, it's getting late today, I'll excuse myself first, see you later, Naruto."

Menma looked up at the sky that had completely darkened, and bowed slightly to Jiraiya.

"Oh, see you later, Menma!"

"Yeah."

After Jiraiya responded with a smile.

Menma then took two steps back, turned around and walked away.

Looking at the back of Menma who was leaving.

Jiraiya also nodded gently.

"Naruto, Menma is a very good ninja, you should get in touch with him more."

"Yeah, don't worry about this, Grandpa Jiraiya, Menma and I have a very good relationship!"

Naruto also patted his chest and said.

"Well, that's fine. Let's go. You should go back and have a good rest today. Tomorrow, we will continue to practice."

"Oh oh oh oh oh!"

When Jiraiya heard Naruto's words, he showed a very happy look on his face. The two were brothers. Jiraiya certainly hoped to see the relationship between Naruto and Menma become better and better.

But Jiraiya now has no way of knowing.

This is just his wishful thinking.

No basis for getting along, no feelings of living together?

Brothers with different treatment?

Sorry, Menma would still look so naive before, but in Menma's eyes now, these are ridiculous luxuries.

In his eyes, there is only himself now.

Encountering Jiraiya by chance.

It did not cause any fluctuations in Menma's heart, but instead made him go further to carefully plan the upcoming Chunin Exam.

After all, how strong Jiraiya is.

Menma still knows it very well.

Under normal circumstances, he is already a leader among the Kage-level. After absorbing natural energy, he enters the Sage Mode. Even if it is not the most perfect one, it is definitely able to beat all Kage-level existences.

If he takes action in the Chunin Exam and is targeted by this Konoha hero, the only consequence will be to burst out more Nine-Tails Chakra at all costs. However, this is the worst situation.

If the situation really does not match his judgment.

Menma will never take action.

Taking the opportunity to escape is the best way.

Now, he doesn't have the capital to go head-on with the entire Hidden Leaf Village, even if Orochimaru and the Hidden Sand Village are there.

Venting emotions is one thing, but saving one's life is the most important thing. There will be many such opportunities in the future, so there is no need to take risks.

As for Orochimaru, they are just a cooperative relationship of exchanging interests. Menma sees it very clearly, not to mention that he made it very clear to Kabuto Yakushi at the beginning. As long as he can clearly bring subsequent benefits to Orochimaru, it doesn't matter if he doesn't take action. This is just a test between each other.

'By the way, does Orochimaru know that Jiraiya is back? Forget it, let's remind him first, be prepared before you are in trouble'

Menma, who returned to his home, also revealed a hint of thought in his pupils.

Putting aside the guys whose combat power collapsed later.

Jiraiya is a real top combat power in the ninja world.

The battle between Jiraiya and Six Paths of Pain is also called the last battle in the most Naruto style by many fans of the original work.

The subsequent battles have already begun to deviate from the original style and feeling.

To be honest, Menma doesn't care which side wins or loses in this Konoha collapse plan. Menma only cares about two things: whether he can successfully leave Konoha, and whether Orochimaru must retreat alive.

If Orochimaru dies in Konoha, it will definitely be a very difficult matter for Menma.

'We still need to be more meticulous and cautious. . . . '

Through the window, Menma looked at the Chunin Exam main competition venue in the distance, which was almost completed, and clenched his hands slightly.
