The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan

This seems to be a critical issue, but it is not that critical.

Where is the core?

It lies in one's credibility and one's integrity.

Although Menma was very young in his previous life and did not have much social experience, he had never eaten pork, so he had never seen a pig running away?

He was certainly not so naive as to trust someone's words.

This world is not a world that flaunts the banner of integrity and etiquette, but a world that talks about interests.

Ohnoki's answer is important, but not that important.

All Menma needs is a reference data.

Onoki was not surprised at all by Fang Ma's doubts. This was a question that any normal person would think of when faced with such a situation.

Ohnoki was also prepared.

When Menma's question came to an end.

Onoki also directly replied: "The first question is not a problem at all. Menma-kun, the relationship between the five great ninja villages has reached this point. Do you need to use other words to explain it? To anger Konoha?" Haha, in the eyes of an old man like me, that is just a joke. Let’s not talk about whether Konoha has the courage to take the initiative. Even if it does, Menma-kun, compared with your value, this so-called war threat is just a It’s a joke. You don’t need to worry about me handing you over when the time comes. Value is on the one hand, and my face and status are also on the other. If you really do that, I, the Tsuchikage, will be sitting on the end, and I am not stupid. Ye’s third generation Hokage.”

Ohnoki is indeed very direct.

There was nothing exaggerated about it. In his opinion, Menma, as the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, did have such value, so what if he started an all-out war with Konoha?

The benefits and risks before him were already worthy of the Third Tsuchikage's determination.

That's Kyuubi! ! !

Not to mention, Onoki really looked down on Konoha and did not think that the so-called Ninja Village, the overlord of the Ninja world, had such determination and courage. This has been fully proven in the past few decades.

In the end, I deliberately cue Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After all, the original eye-rolling incident.

That was a household name in the entire ninja world.

Konoha, or should I say Sarutobi Hiruzen's weakness was also exposed at that moment, at least in Onoki's view.

This is the stupidest thing to do.

The shadow of a ninja village.

If you succumb to the threat of war from other ninja villages and hand over your family, wouldn't you be shaking the foundation of your own rule and the foundation of the entire ninja village! ?

Don't tell me that it wasn't your fault at all.

Even if it's really your fault first.

If Onoki had to deal with it himself, he would definitely fight to the end. If his family makes a mistake, it can only be handled by his family and handed over. What will happen if it is handed over to him! ?

In this regard, Ohnoki also had great confidence in speaking.

"As for the second question, Menma-kun, isn't it the best answer for me to come here today? And given your identity and your previous behavior, I believe that you are not that kind of insidious person. I am willing to give you unlimited and unreserved trust. This is the greatest sincerity I can give.”

Onoki looked at Menma with a serious look and said softly.

"As for the last question, Menma-kun, all I can say is that I will only choose what is best for Iwagakure Village. Do you understand that?"

After Onoki paused for a moment, he spoke next.

It also made Menma's brows slightly raised.

After a brief silence.

Menma also nodded slowly and said: "Of course I understand what you mean, and I can understand it. After all, your primary identity is the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village."

"Haha, you can understand that that is the best. So, Menma-kun, please give your answer. Are you willing to join our Iwagakure Village?"

Ohnoki smiled softly and put his hands behind his back. That seemingly calm and calm posture actually made Ohnoki's heartstrings tighten at that moment.

Although before coming, Ohnoki had a lot of confidence and assurance that he could convince Menma, and to be honest, there was no deception in every word Ohnoki said. He just invited Menma sincerely, even to the point of If Menma is good enough to surpass all the next generation young people in his ninja village, then the highest position is not something that cannot be considered.

Just as he said.

He would not doubt Menma without any reason.

He comes here.

It is an expression of attitude in itself.

But after actually seeing Menma and having a brief exchange with Menma, Onoki also fully understood what kind of personality Menma is.

It cannot be said that there is little hope, I can only say that it is far from the initial expectations.

Because this is a matter of personal discretion.

as expected.

Menma didn't think about it for too long, or even after Ohnoki's words fell.

Menma shook his head and said, "I'm very sorry to live up to your expectations. I currently have no intention of joining other ninja villages. However, it is possible that we can have a cooperative relationship, Lord Tsuchikage. "

When I heard the first half of Menma's answer.

Ohnoki also felt his heart sink.

He secretly thought, ‘Sure enough, that’s the case. ’

He even began to mentally consider other plans and ways to deal with Menma, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

This is the half-sentence I heard later.

Ohnoki couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"Partnership? What do you mean? Menma-kun?"

Onoki asked, looking at Menma with interest.

Orochimaru on the side also showed a meaningful smile, because this posture, this scene, no matter how you look at it, it is like the meeting between him and Menma in the Death Forest more than two months ago.

"That's what it means literally. I invite Lord Tsuchikage to join me in forming an alliance. The target of this alliance is the Hidden Leaf Village."

Menma said word by word with a calm smile.

Konoha.

Fire Nation.

This is the main reason why three ninja wars broke out in the past few decades.

Although other ninja villages also attacked each other, in the three battles, the Iwa ninja and Kumo ninja even had their brains knocked out.

But in most cases, the other four major ninja villages still target the Hidden Leaf Village, the Country of Fire, which is located in the most prosperous core area of ​​​​the ninja world.

I would say with 100% certainty.

That must be bullshit.

But Menma believed that as long as there were no big surprises and the goals and interests were consistent, the Third Tsuchikage would still be willing to join forces with him.

There are various ways to suppress a contradiction.

But the most direct and effective way is to temporarily replace this contradiction with another bigger contradiction.

And it's the kind of contradiction that can see the dawn of benefit.

Then the previous contradiction can be put aside and forgotten for the time being.
