The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan

"I just..."

"Just what? Do you still want to talk about your ridiculous theory of mutual understanding!? Or are you the only one who is right and everyone else is wrong? Are you so arrogant? Are you so arrogant!? Naruto? Still the same sentence, now, here, we are the only ones in the family. Let’s see if you can use your theory to convince us, including mom and dad, your so-called mutual understanding, if even your own family recognizes it. No, what can you do to convince others? With your not-so-strong strength? Or, to put it another way, you can really defeat all the opponents with your strength. Is this going to happen again? When it comes to the previous question, what’s the difference between you and me?”

Menma said with a scoff.

Being completely at a disadvantage, it should even be said that there is no way to refute the situation.

Naruto could only look at Menma dumbly.

That was the look that subconsciously followed Menma's words and looked at Minato and Kushina.

The two of them also sighed softly and shook their heads helplessly, just like Tobirama who felt infinitely helpless about his eldest brother's innocent ideal.

In response to Naruto's stupidity, Shinobi said.

Minato and Kushina were also helpless.

Mutual understanding?

We are no longer three years old.

How can this be done! ?

Factors such as interests, hatred, kinship, etc. all make it impossible for humans to understand each other.

in this world.

It is never possible to have the so-called empathy.

There is just endless opposition.

In fact, even in the original work, the only people who have always clearly stated their support for Naruto's ideals are the kind of people who truly agree with them from the bottom of their hearts. The only ones who have the same ideals and innocence are Jiraiya, Nagato, and Obito. Activists.

other people! ?

Either because of power (several other major countries).

Either because of the relationship (Hinata, Shikamaru, Kakashi).

Either because of the benefits (other beneficiaries in Konoha Hidden Village).

Only then did he choose to follow Naruto.

This path cannot be said to be completely wrong.

At least as Menma said, as long as the first Hokage is still alive, the peace of the ninja world can last for one day, which means that if you want to continue a long or even permanent peace, the first Hokage must have unlimited Life span is enough.

After all, in this world, it's theoretically possible.

The perfect Otsutsuki bloodline.

That means you can get almost infinite life.

But this kind of peace, or that sentence, is built on one person. It seems solid, but in fact it is fragile.

"Then...Then...Then what you did is correct!? Even if you didn't take the initiative, you killed so many people, and the hatred continued to gather together. In the end, this hatred will only include you. Everyone inside will be devoured, and the Great Toad Sage of Mt. Miaomu has predicted that if you continue like this, you will become the bloody demon who destroys the entire ninja world. Is this called peace? The way!? Tell me!”

I can no longer find the words to support myself and convince others.

Naruto could only point the finger at Menma.

Even if you are wrong.

Then you have to prove that the other party is wrong.

It could be said that at this moment, Naruto was at the end of his rope, acting like a rogue child.

Although fifteen-year-old Naruto can indeed be said to be a child.

After all, they are still teenagers.

"That's why I say you are stupid. You can only see the trees but not the forest."

Menma shook his head and looked at Naruto as if he were a fool.

"What did you say!?"

Naruto's eyes widened and he was about to go up and fight Menma.

"Did I kill a lot of people? How does it compare with the chaotic Warring States period decades ago? Let me tell you, Naruto, human beings are very realistic creatures. Hatred? That is based on insufficient security and insufficient interests. Emotions that only burst out when the time comes, just like the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan back then. You must know that the two ninja clans are a real feud. It is a blood feud that lasts for hundreds of years and has their hands covered with each other's blood. Man, why did they get together in the end? The reason is not that Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara reached mutual understanding as you think, but because of interests. The combination of the two ninja clans can give birth to the largest ninja at that time. The power of Konoha Hidden Village is an existence that the entire ninja world cannot resist. The joining of countless ninja clans proves this. In fact, Senju Hashirama established a ninja village and let these ninja clans join together. Isn't he following the path of unification that I am talking about now? Merging the ninja clans that once opposed each other and killed each other, it's just that the first generation Hokage has the same narrow vision. He is clearly capable of completing the unification of the entire ninja world, but in the end Take the first step and give up. Otherwise, how could the subsequent conflict between the five major countries have happened?"

Menma smiled coldly with disdain, and then continued after a slight pause.

"Do you think it was the First Hokage who brought peace? In my opinion, it was his stupidity and naivety that led to the wars that followed for decades and the deaths of so many people. All of this was his fault. If he had taken that step back then, not so many people would have died today. I have always believed in a saying that with great ability comes great responsibility. Senju Hashirama has completely abandoned it. He is the real executioner, an executioner with his hands stained with blood! Today I am completing the path that the first Hokage should have completed more than sixty years ago. As long as the ninja world Unification, the ninja villages of all countries are merged together, and there will no longer be wars at the level of national opposition in this world. At most, it will be similar to the internal disputes between the Uchiha clan and the Hidden Leaf Village, and the contradictions will be reduced. , Maximizing interests, this is the true path to peace, Naruto, your ideals can only exist in dreams, see the reality clearly!"

Another completely refuted statement.

I think what I put forward is completely wrong.

Menma can use Senju Hashirama's incident as an example.

The establishment of Konoha Hidden Village, the conflicts between the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan and the cooperation behind them.

Naruto just didn't think about this aspect before.

Now after being pointed out so clearly by Menma.

Naruto suddenly felt that his dream was completely shattered.

"Me? This...but..."

The strong desire in my heart to refute.

But I just can't find any suitable words, any powerful words.

There was a vague feeling in his heart that what Menma said was correct. The moment Naruto realized this, he was shocked. How could he doubt himself! ?

"And Miaomu Mountain!? Haha, a mere toad that masters magic can predict things!? Have you fallen so low that you even believe what a toad says!? As a human, do you believe what a toad says? ?Naruto? You are really ridiculous, you really make me look down on you, my stupid brother!"

It’s okay not to mention Mount Miaomu.

When it comes to Mount Myoki.

Menma was even more angry. In Menma's opinion, the toads in Mount Myoboku were an inferior species, not to mention compared to the slugs in the Shiggou Forest. Even the white snakes in Ryūchi Cave, Menma felt were inferior to those in Mount Myoboku. The toad is much stronger. At least he won't do things like saying one thing before others and another after others, especially the so-called prophecy.

It's simply ridiculous.

If the fate of a world can be predicted by a toad, then this world is really both sad and ridiculous.

prophecy! ?

This thing itself is something full of mockery.

If you don't have free time.

Now Menma is planning to directly raid the Myoboku Mountain.

"me..."

Looking at his youngest son who was completely at a disadvantage.

Minato also sighed softly in his heart. This was a sign that he was obviously inexperienced in the world, harboring ideals but not being practical.

Otherwise, even if the debate fails, it will not look so bad.

There is really no room for replying.

In contrast to this.

Minato was very pleased with his eldest son's performance. Regardless of whether he was right or not, at least it was obvious that Menma had thought about it seriously, looked at the problem and analyzed it realistically, and He came up with a relatively complete set of solutions of his own.

It was like meeting Menma for the first time in the spiritual world.

Minato wasn't really worried about the path his child would choose.

Whether you stay in Konoha or leave Konoha.

What Minato valued more was Menma himself.

Make corresponding judgments rationally and calmly, instead of being immersed in hatred.

If it's the latter.

Minato was really going to intervene.

He didn't want his child to become a crazy being driven by hatred.

But now it seems that it is the former.

Then Minato thought it was okay.

Not to mention, Minato felt that Menma's words made sense. As the successor to the Fourth Hokage, Minato's vision was far higher than that of ordinary people.

It is aimed at the special period when Konoha Hidden Village was first established.

Although there are certain differences between Minato's views and Menma's, they also have similarities in many places.

"Menma, can I ask you a few questions?"

Minato leaned forward slightly, looked at Menma, and asked softly.

"Of course, Dad."

Menma was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly and replied.

"To unify the ninja world and merge the ninja villages, I can see that you really have a complete set of plans. It's not just a hot head, nor is it just verbal talk, but what I want to know is, for the national level, How do you deal with it? You know, our current order in the ninja world is a dual-track system of one country and one ninja village. If you annex all the ninja villages, how do you deal with the daimyo and nobles at the national level? ?”

From Minato's point of view, Ninja Village's problems are actually really easy to handle.

To put it bluntly, ninjas are a group of guys who are supreme in strength.

Whoever has a big fist will be the one who can completely convince the crowd. As long as Menma is strong enough, Menma can annex other ninja villages forcefully.

This was already proven by Hashirama and Madara back then. If Hashirama hadn't lost his mind, there would now be only one ninja village in the entire ninja world - Konoha.

It's just a question that extends here.

What should the country do! ? !

Although the battle of ninjas is the main theme of this world, it does not mean that there are no battles between countries.

Otherwise, are the standing armies of various countries just for display?

Are those countries that were destroyed all the work of ninjas?

Ninjas would not attack ordinary people under normal circumstances, and this was also one of the prohibitions.

Therefore, the country's problem is to adopt different methods.

Minato now wanted to see how Menma dealt with the daimyo and nobles headed by the five major nations.

Only if it is handled well can unification be possible. If it is not handled well, even if the Ninja Village is forcibly unified, there will definitely be many problems in the future.

"I have also considered this issue, that is, after the merger of Ninja Village, a national-level world conference will be held to form a super-large country. Daimyos from various countries can join this country based on their previous status. Establish a parliamentary group similar to the Council of Ninja Village Elders. All affairs of the country can be handled through this parliament. Set a time limit to select one or more parliamentary representatives to exercise general power. The following nobles and dignitaries are There are different positions, and it all depends on the person and the situation. This is my initial idea. The specifics will have to be implemented based on the actual situation. "

Menma took a deep breath and replied with a serious expression.

"What if someone disagrees?"

Minato then asked pointedly.

"Then find someone who can agree. There is no shortage of people in this world who want to make progress, dad, especially those famous people and nobles."

Menma replied without hesitation.

For Menma.

The problem of Ninja Village is the focus.

The famous names and nobles of those countries?

Menma didn't know what the other ninja villagers thought, but Menma didn't have any fear at all.

If you are willing to cooperate, then you can be treated well.

Unwilling to cooperate.

If you have children, choose your children to take over.

If there are no children, the closest relative will be chosen to take the place.

Again, as long as the benefits are in place, Menma doesn't believe there are still people who can't be dealt with! ?

Not to mention the final resort - violence!

Above strength.

This is universal in any world and in any era, let alone in this world with the extraordinary power of chakra, what can ordinary people do to defy ninjas?

To say that an egg touches a rock is to overestimate people like them.

"You are quite direct and forceful, Menma."

Of course, Minato could understand the meaning behind Menma's words, and he shook his head in amusement.

But the more so.

The one facing Minato feels more at ease.

Independent, decisive and rational.

And it is the result of comprehensive consideration.

If their children can behave like this, it is basically impossible for parents to find fault with the eggs.

"Then, I have one last question. When the Ninja Village merges, what attitude will you take towards people from other Ninja Villages, especially those who have bullied you before, Menma?"
