Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Kakashi leapt up and left the office directly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also devoted himself to handling the government affairs of his position as Hokage.

Having returned to his home, Ma naturally had no idea whether the Third Hokage, who seemed to be 100% confident in him, still had a little doubt about him, but this was obviously a very normal development.

After all, Menma is not as positive, optimistic, innocent and passionate as Naruto in the original work.

What's more, he is a 12-year-old kid with the Nine-Tailed Fox in his body. Even if we are not worried about Menma himself, we have to worry about the possible rebellion of the Nine-Tailed Fox, right?

As a Hokage who has been in charge of Konohagakure for more than 40 years, if he is so careless, he will never be able to firmly control the power of the village.

It can be done after the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, died in battle.

The fact that he was able to secure the position of Hokage at the young age of 20 is enough to show that Sarutobi Hiruzen was very skilled.

This is also why after reading the original work in the previous life, many people felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen, at least after he reached middle age, had become a hypocrite wearing a mask.

Even though the original work tried hard to describe how kind, just, bright and great this Hokage was, the facts that existed were just slapping Sarutobi Hiruzen in the face.

Danzo's existence is a point that can never be avoided.

If you say that Sarutobi Hiruzen is not aware of what Danzo has done, then Sarutobi Hiruzen is stupid. If you say that Sarutobi Hiruzen knows what Danzo has done and has even adopted a tacit attitude, then Sarutobi Hiruzen is bad!

And if Sarutobi Hiruzen had no idea what Danzo had done beforehand, and even after he found out, he was still hesitant and always took the approach of giving only mild reprimands, without any real punishment at all.

Then this Third Hokage is both stupid and evil.

No matter which one it is.

This Hokage-sama is not worthy of trust.

At least, that's what Menma thought.

Now he would not have any hesitation at all.

At this moment when Konoha is about to face another crisis, Menma really needs to make his next arrangements carefully and comprehensively.

What kind of way out should he choose?

Although he had considered a number of options before, after eliminating them one by one, Menma found that he only had a few options to choose from, and the one that seemed the most reliable.

"There's only this guy left. Although it's a little dangerous, it's more practical..."

Menma looked at the densely packed black words he had written on the white paper. When his eyes fixed on a certain word, a hint of sharpness flashed in Menma's pupils.

There is no best choice.

Some are simply the only choice forced by the current situation.

It's a big gamble.

The "gambling chip" that needs to be paid is one's own life, but so what? Since you don't want to live a depressed and cowardly life, you can only choose to take this path.

"Let's set the date for the Chunin Exams in a few months!"

Menma's eyes flickered slightly as he thought silently in his heart.

If one wants to escape from the Hidden Leaf Village, in addition to having the minimum ability to protect oneself, the timing of the event is also crucial.

In the original work, the Chunin Exam, the plan to collapse Konoha jointly launched by the Sand Village and the Sound Village was a perfect opportunity.

Konoha at that time was definitely in the most chaotic situation.

This was Menma's preferred time to leave Konoha.

However, this is only the current preliminary plan. The goal remains unchanged, but whether the specific operations and choices will change at that time will also depend on the actual situation at the moment. It is not a good thing to read from the script.

It is not uncommon for plans to fail to keep up with changes.

"I still need to have more alternative plans!"

Menma took a deep breath and thought silently in his heart.

Of course, the most important thing is your own strength.

The stronger you are, the greater the initiative you can take. Therefore, during the few days of rest.

Menma also did not relax at all. His Rasengan training in the Land of Waves was already on the right track.

He may not remember other plot details in such detail.

But Menma still remembers very clearly the three-stage training method of the Rasengan that Jiraiya taught Naruto in the original work.

It's not impossible to find another way.

But since there is a ready-made solution, why bother yourself?

Originally, even if there was no record in the Book of Sealed Things, Menma could still learn the Rasengan, but after all, he lacked a formal way.

For the past 12 years, Menma has been living under surveillance. How could he secretly learn other ninjutsu? Isn't that a clear way to die?

Therefore, even though Menma had some methods of practicing the techniques in his memory, he could not put any of them into practice. He could only repeatedly carry out the most boring and monotonous basic training.

But it’s different now!

In the Land of Waves, Menma, while practicing other things, had already successfully completed the first stage of the rotation of the Rasengan, the training of the second stage of its power, and even the maintenance of the third stage, which was considered to have reached the expected target value.

It can be said that he has initially mastered the Rasengan.

But sometimes there are some small problems.

For example, the problem of chakra dissipation.

During these few days of rest.

What Menma needs to do is to further consolidate the results of his practice.

Reach the point of fully mastering the Rasengan.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 70 The next meeting

Konohagakure Village, second training ground.

The next morning after returning to the Ninja Village.

"Spiral pills!"

"boom!"

Menma came here to continue his ninjutsu training.

Looking at the hole blasted out on the ground, which was not too exaggerated.

Menma's brows slightly frowned, revealing a look of dissatisfaction.

"The chakra compression is still not enough. It needs a larger amount and more stable control. There is no problem with the rotation. The key is to further strengthen it. Do you want to try the shadow clone together? No, that will take too much time."

Menma rubbed his chin and whispered.

As an A-level ninjutsu, the difficulty of practicing the Rasengan is unquestionable. This means that Menma is indeed talented in the technique, which allowed him to initially master the Rasengan in such a short time. In the original work, Naruto had difficulty controlling his chakra because of the interference of the Nine-Tails' chakra at the beginning, and he needed to create a shadow clone to help control the chakra and then use the Rasengan. This was originally a last resort.

Otherwise, Naruto might not be able to master the Rasengan even if he was given a month, let alone a week.

By creating a shadow clone and having an extra pair of hands, one can indeed control the chakra compression more accurately.

But in this case, the problem is also obvious.

As an A-level ninjutsu, the Rasengan's biggest advantage over other A-level ninjutsu is that it does not require hand seals. If there were an additional step of shadow clone, wouldn't that greatly weaken the Rasengan's advantageous attributes?

What they want is speed and the unexpected!

It is obvious that Naruto in the later period was not interfered by the Nine-Tails' Chakra, but it was also because he had long been accustomed to using the Rasengan in this way, so he used Shadow Clone again and again. Menma did not want to do that. He condensed chakra with one hand and then released the Rasengan. This was the standard way!

This is enough to make the Rasengan one of his most powerful means of attack!

After all, in terms of power alone, the Rasengan can threaten or even kill 95% of the ninjas in the ninja world.

Therefore, even if it takes a little more time and a little more effort now, Menma must get completely accustomed to using the Rasengan with one hand, and the same applies to the Rasengan's future upgraded mode.

"Say, we need to speed up the process!"

Menma took a deep breath.

"The art of multiple shadow clones"

He immediately formed seals and controlled the chakra a little, but hundreds of shadow clones were created in an instant, and all of them were devoted to cultivation.

He believes that there is such a cheating speed-up tool.

He can overcome any difficulty in practicing any technique.

Three or four days passed quickly under Menma's regular training rhythm.

Kakashi also sent out a new call for troops.

In that fixed place.

Everyone in Team 7 gathered on time. Kakashi was naturally a little late as usual, and the four people in Team 7 were already used to it.

"Hey, everyone, you all seem to have had a good rest these past few days. You should have fully recovered, right?"

When I saw Kakashi still with a smiling face, he showed up after being more than an hour late.

Even though I have warned myself several times.

But Naruto still couldn't help but complain: "Hey, Kakashi-sama, can't you be a little more punctual? You're late nine times out of ten times, and each time you're late for an hour or two, that's too much!"

"Haha, sorry, sorry, I just lost myself on the road of life. I will pay more attention next time. I will pay more attention."

Kakashi still used his thick skin, which was as thick as a city wall, to give the most ridiculous reasons.

This made Naruto suddenly angry.

"Ahem, okay, let's get back to the point. After a few days of rest, our team 7 needs to start performing tasks again. By the way, from today on, our team 7 will only perform tasks above level C. I think you all should have no problem with that, right?"

Not giving Naruto a second chance to speak.

Kakashi also went straight to the point.

"Eh? Will all missions from now on be C-rank or above? That's great!"

As expected, Naruto was also directly attracted by Kakashi's words. After hearing that the missions their team would be carrying out next would all be above C-level, Naruto said with a sparkling color in his eyes.

"Yeah, no problem."

Menma raised his eyebrows and nodded calmly.

"Hmph, either is fine."

Erzhuzi also had an indifferent attitude.

Only Sakura was a little bit uneasy. After all, the shock she received from her first C-rank mission was a bit too strong. Even Sakura herself knew very well that this mission to Wave Country was just an accident. Jonin were not easy to find in the world, and in principle, it was impossible for ninjas to appear in C-rank missions.

However, this thing is very easy to become afraid of ropes for ten years after being bitten by a snake once.

Haruno Sakura is one of these people now.

Kakashi could obviously see through Haruno Sakura's mood at the moment, but Kakashi did not expose her. Young ninjas always need to overcome certain psychological thresholds on their own.

"Since there are no problems, let's go."

"Oh!"

"Yes."

The completion of a C-level mission, and a special C-level mission of difficulty level A, can bring different impacts to a team.

Moreover, with the current strength of Team 7, excluding Kakashi, not to mention the C-level missions, even the B-level missions should not be difficult and can be completed easily.

There will never be any deliberate blocking of tasks at the mission center. Unlike some ninja villages where there are more people than tasks and there are not enough tasks to be distributed, Konohagakure Village, as the leader of the five major ninja villages, receives a huge amount of tasks every year, every month, and every day. The ninjas of Konohagakure Village dare not say that they can choose tasks at will, but they can definitely say that they don't need to worry about not having tasks to execute.

Not to mention their membership in Team 7, the fact that they are led by Kakashi alone is enough to make them qualified to choose missions.

The officer in charge here had obviously also received some instructions from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Class 7 can freely choose the tasks they want to perform.

And this is the second C-level task.

As the captain, Kakashi received an escort mission to protect a caravan departing from Konohagakure Village to Kyoto, the capital of the Land of Fire.

This is also the most common C-level task and also the one with the highest reward.

The caravan boss was even more delighted when he saw that he could hire a jonin for a C-rank mission.
