Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Hearing Menma's answer.

Iruka also showed a gentle smile on his face and nodded.

"Go back and rest. The graduation ceremony starts at nine o'clock! Don't be late."

"Yes, Iruka-sensei."

After saying this, Iruka turned around and left, walking back to his own position on the other side.

Menma stayed where he was, and after watching Iruka's figure gradually disappear into the night, he put away the smile on his face.

He turned his head and glanced at the Hokage Building which was still brightly lit.

A hint of coldness quickly flashed across Menma's pupils.

"This is just the beginning! !"

The end of winter.

This is the breath of the coming early spring.

July of the 60st year of Konoha.

Menma also officially graduated from the ninja school.

After leaving the novice protection period, what will next be faced are real BOSS-level enemies that are more dangerous and terrifying than the last.

The night slowly passes by.

The dawn comes quietly.

The next day.

When the first ray of sunlight shines on the earth in the early morning.

The Ninja School located in the core area of ​​the village is gradually becoming noisy and bustling. The Ninja School has two fixed busy days every year, one is the start of the school season in March, and the other is the graduation season in January!

The boys and girls who have successfully passed the graduation examination will wear the forehead protectors they have just received and come to the ninja school to attend their graduation ceremony in high spirits. The little ones who have not yet graduated will also look at these graduated seniors with envy and longing, and fantasize about their future graduation prospects.

I haven't seen the truly cruel little guys in the ninja world yet.

in their eyes.

People only see the glamour and glory of becoming a ninja, but fail to see the risks that a ninja has to take.

It was a rare time that Menma didn't get up early, but slept until eight o'clock.

This is not only because of today's special

It was also because they had just fought a battle last night. Even though Mizuki was a relatively weak enemy, that was Menma's first battle in this world after all. In other words, Mizuki was really too bad. If Mizuki really had the average strength of a Chunin and maintained the highest level of combat awareness.

Even after yesterday's hard fight, Menma couldn't have won so clearly.

Because others can't see it.

Menma was actually very clear that he was still a little nervous in yesterday's battle. The arm holding the kunai was trembling slightly at the beginning. Don't forget that he lived in an extremely harmonious and peaceful country in his previous life.

The biggest 'battle scene' was to 'assist' the adults in killing a chicken.

In this kind of 'real person PK', it would be strange if Menma didn't feel nervous at all.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle is not that important to Menma.

But the battle itself has extraordinary significance.

This also allowed Menma to truly integrate into this dark and cruel world of "blood and fire".

Chapter 30 Graduation Ceremony

"It was a very comfortable night indeed!"

I slept until dawn.

This was the first time that Menma had come into this world, except for his infancy when he was unable to move. In the past, he would get up at daybreak.

This is a rare experience.

Plus last night's experience.

Let Menma stand at the window and look at the distant scenery, as if he has a long-lost feeling of peace and joy.

After a simple tidying up and having breakfast, Menma put on his going-out clothes, tied a headguard on his forehead, pushed open the door, and strode towards the ninja school.

This time is different from before.

Menma didn't deliberately choose a less crowded path to take a detour.

He was just walking freely like all other students of the ninja school on the nearest avenue, facing the morning light. The street was already crowded with people, with shop doors wide open, and the scene was extremely noisy.

But this time.

Menma did not hear any implicit scolding as in the past. The moment the people saw the iconic forehead protector of Konoha Ninja on Menma's forehead, they subconsciously tightened their faces.

Ninja is the most special existence in this world!

They can still dislike Menma, and even plot and isolate Menma behind closed doors, but they must not openly show their ill will like they did in the past.

Or rather, it can't be so naked and obvious!

It is even more impossible for him to insult Menma directly in front of him when there are not many people around, as he did when Menma was a child.

The status gap between ninjas and ordinary people is as vast as the sky!

At this moment, the looks they gave Menma became timid!

Menma's expression remained the same as before, he walked through with a calm face. He didn't have any evil intention to see the different attitudes of these ordinary people. He just felt that he could now walk on the road openly.

After all, the malicious looks and even insults from these people before were unacceptable to anyone, but Menma had no tendency to be masochistic, so he naturally chose to walk on a path with fewer or even no fewer people. Now that he has officially become a ninja, he doesn't need to worry about these issues anymore!

This one goes straight through the crowd.

Ordinary people seemed to pretend that they didn't see Menma.

After Menma's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, everyone looked at his departing back with a puzzled look in their eyes.

"I never thought that this kid would become a ninja!"

"I don't know what the Third Generation Master is thinking."

'Why...'

"Really..."

They knew very well that from today on, everything would be different.

Menma, who had already left, naturally had no way of knowing what these ordinary people were thinking. Even if he knew, he would not care at all.

Now he was only thinking about his next class division and who he would form a team with.

After all, although he replaced 'Naruto' in the original work, he is not Naruto!

In this time and space.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki gave birth to twins.

He is Menma Uzumaki!

He also has a younger brother, Namikaze Naruto.

With one more person, everything will naturally be different.

The only thing that can be confirmed with a high probability is that his teacher will still be Hatake Kakashi, because in the current Konohagakure Village, there is no one more suitable than Kakashi.

"It all depends on what that old guy thinks."

Menma arrived at this already bustling ninja school, and a hint of thoughtfulness appeared in his pupils.

Walking lightly into the ninja school.

Along the way, I saw fellow graduates, all of whom had excitement and yearning on their faces. It seemed that they could foresee the prospect of becoming ninjas, completing various advanced tasks with ease, and then becoming heroes of the ninja village.

For these people's fantasies.

Menma could only say that Konoha had been too comfortable in recent years.

The graduates of these years have all become flowers grown in a greenhouse, these ordinary graduates.

These people are just too naive.

Say something unpleasant.

After graduation, it is not surprising to die in any C-level mission.

Geniuses are, after all, in the minority.

Those who can receive preferential treatment are also a minority.

This can be clearly seen from the original work.

Not everyone is qualified to join a team led by a senior ninja, and not everyone can stand out in such a cruel ninja world.

Of all the top ninjas who dominate the ninja world, which one of them doesn't have blood on his hands, and which one of them doesn't have his reputation built on piles of bones! ?

Without talent, without background, and if you cannot adjust your mindset in time.

To put it bluntly.

The future of these people is not promising at all.

You can only become one of those piles of bones.

The same is true for Menma himself. The decision he has made and the path he is destined to take will make him nothing more than a pile of bones if he is not careful.

'This is also the side of Konoha's continuous decline. It is true that we should be prepared for danger in times of peace. . . '

Menma shook his head slightly inwardly.

"Oh!? Isn't this our number one? You came so late today, and the graduation ceremony is about to start!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

As soon as you enter the classroom.

Menma who has not yet reached his seat.

A slightly high-pitched voice and the barking of a childish puppy came to my ears.

No need to turn your head.

Menma knew who was coming.

In their classroom, or even in this grade, there is only one student who brings a puppy into school, and that is Inuzuka Kiba, who comes from the Inuzuka clan, which is famous for breeding ninja dogs.

This person is also one of the few companions that Menma has communicated with several times in the ninja school. After all, although Menma is unwilling, he has never taken the initiative to communicate with these classmates.

But there are some people who are willing to come and get close to Menma.

Teeth are one of them.

Menma couldn't just say bad things to him, right? Of course, at most they could just maintain an ordinary classmate relationship.

"Ah, it's Ya. I practiced a little longer last night, so I overslept today. But I'm not late!"

Menma smiled slightly and replied softly.

"Tsk tsk, you're already number one, and you're still working so hard, Menma."

Inuzuka Kiba said in amazement.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"This is why Menma has always been the top student in our class, Kiba. Menma is different from you."

In the side position.

Two more figures came over.

The person on the left is big enough to be used as two menma!

While saying this, he was showing off his potato chips.

This man is none other than the current patriarch of the Akimichi clan, the biological son of Akimichi Choji. The young man who came with him, with a pineapple-like hairstyle and a lazy look, is the character known as the ceiling of IQ in the original novel - Nara Shikamaru!
