Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

Menma himself is aware of this.

To be honest, Menma had already intended to stop. Orochimaru didn't want to be besieged by the Hidden Leaf Village. Did he want to be discovered by the people of the Hidden Leaf Village in advance?

That's definitely looking for death, and just now when the fourth tail erupted, Menma could already feel the burning sensation coming from the skin all around his body.

This is a kind of erosion of one's body by the Nine-Tails Chakra.

It is something that cannot be reversed at this stage.

This is also a process that every Chuuriki must go through, allowing his body to slowly adapt to the chakra of the tailed beast and eventually achieve perfect fusion.

"Haha, I knew Orochimaru-san was a sensible person."

Menma also smiled lightly, looking at Orochimaru who had completely restrained his murderous intent and returned to his previous deep attitude, and he continued to lie with his eyes open.

"Hehe, tell me, Menma-kun, what exactly is your intention? You exposed my identity and even used the Nine-Tails' chakra. What do you want to get from me?"

At this moment, Orochimaru's slightly narrow snake eyes were staring at Menma and he spoke in a low voice.

"No, no, no, Orochimaru-san misunderstood. It's not that I want to gain something from you, but we need to make a deal that is mutually beneficial, Orochimaru-san."

Menma smiled slightly and said in a firm tone.

"Wow? Then I'm all ears."

Orochimaru said it nonchalantly, saying that he recognized Menma's power only because of the existence of the Nine-Tails.

But Menma is only 12 years old. Orochimaru doesn't think that Menma at this age can bring him anything. What's more, what can a mere kid know about what he is pursuing?

"My intention is very simple. I plan to leave this village in the near future and join Orochimaru-san. Of course, I don't want to become your subordinate, but I hope to cooperate with you. I hope Orochimaru-san can provide me with a temporary place to stay. Then I also hope to obtain some specialized research content and material support from Orochimaru-san, such as cells and some secret techniques. This is my need."

"Is that really the case? Interesting, Menma-kun. Leaving this village? Haha, if my teacher knew this, he might go crazy. But, Menma-kun, as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, how are you going to leave the village? Oh, do you need my help? I'd be happy to help."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and said with a weird smile.

"Haha, you don't need to worry about this, Orochimaru-san. I have my own way to leave the village. And Orochimaru-san's return this time should not be just for reminiscing about the past, right? So, it depends on whether Orochimaru-san is willing to take in a defector like me."

Of course, Menma would not be so stupid as to directly expose the plan between Orochimaru and the Sand Village here. It would be difficult to explain the source of his information and would be more likely to arouse unnecessary suspicion from Orochimaru.

After all, what he wanted here was just to reach a preliminary agreement with Orochimaru. As for what happened later, could he take seriously the words of two people who had no trust in each other at all?

Everything has to be dealt with on the spot and solved through mutual bargaining.

The same effect can be achieved here through some reasonable speculation.

It was obvious that Orochimaru's eyes narrowed when he heard Menma's words, and the dangerous cold light that was faintly revealed was restrained by Orochimaru himself after only a second.

"It seems that Menma-kun has really made a lot of preparations in the past 12 years. These conditions, of course, I have no problem with them, but there is no free lunch in this world, so why should I offer these conditions to you, Menma-kun, I can't see the deal that is a win-win for both of us at all now."

Orochimaru said in a calm tone.

"Don't worry, Orochimaru-san. I believe my conditions will impress Orochimaru-san. The first condition is me, the most orthodox bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, and the Nine-Tails in my body. Are you not interested in me at all? I believe that it will be helpful for some of Orochimaru-san's research, right?"

Menma pointed at himself and said meaningfully.

"You are very brave, using yourself as a condition."

Orochimaru was stunned at first, then he looked at Menma with an interested look and said.

Orochimaru would not be surprised that Menma knew some of his research. At most he got it from Konoha. As for the means, seeing Menma's current strength, Orochimaru did not think it was impossible.

Of course, even if you kill Orochimaru, he will never know that all this is the benefit of being a "time traveler".

"Haha, I always think I'm very brave, and I'm willing to make any exchange just to leave this evil village. Isn't that the case with Orochimaru-san?"

Menma chuckled and said meaningfully.

"Very good, I agree to this condition, or should I say that even if this is the only condition, I will accept the deal you proposed. However, you seem to have something else prepared, eh, Menma-kun?"

"Of course. To be more precise, the second condition is what I carefully prepared for you, Orochimaru-san. It is the relationship between the Sharingan and the Samsara Eye. I think you will be very interested in it, Orochimaru-san. Otherwise, you would not have come all the way back to the village and played such a ninja game with Sasuke-kun."

Menma leaned forward slightly as he spoke each word.

This time, Orochimaru was shocked by Menma again, and his sudden change in expression was the best proof of this.

"What!?"

Orochimaru looked at Menma with a very sharp look. The shock and suspicion revealed in his snake eyes were so clear and so strong.

"Menma-kun, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course I know what I'm talking about, Orochimaru-san. You don't need to doubt me. Indeed, in your opinion, how could a mere 12-year-old kid like me know anything? But don't forget, there is a creature that has lived for thousands of years in my body. And your partner is not a simple person, is he, Orochimaru-san?"

Menma said with a small smile.

Chapter 91: Agreement Reached

"!?"

When Orochimaru heard this, a particularly sharp look flashed in his snake eyes.

This was truly an answer that Orochimaru had not expected.

To be honest, it is a little bit outrageous, but it also seems to make sense.

If it was the Nine-Tailed Fox, then everything could be explained. It was a true monster-level being that had survived for who knows how many years. But Orochimaru always felt that something was wrong.

But these are minor issues, including some other issues that Menma deliberately mentioned.

Orochimaru didn't care at all. Just like with Danzo, the old guy thought that he was using Orochimaru, and didn't Orochimaru have the same opinion?

The way to deal with Menma in front of us can also be referred to as Danzo's approach.

Not to mention that compared to what Menma could bring him, what he had to pay was simply insignificant.

There is no need to worry about any minor doubts.

Such a deal.

Orochimaru would definitely be happy to see this, not to mention that once they arrived at his home turf, it was hard to say what would happen next.

"The relationship between the Sharingan and the Samsara Eye? Interesting, you are really interesting, Menma-kun. Very good, I agree to all the conditions you proposed. When you come to me, everything can be treated according to the highest standards. As long as the answer you bring in the end can satisfy me, whatever you want, as long as it is something I can provide, I will satisfy you, Menma-kun."

Orochimaru licked his lips, and his pair of bewitching snake eyes stared at Menma, and he laughed in a low voice.

In Orochimaru's opinion, this is ultimately a deal that is sure to make a profit.

You don't need to actually pay anything, at least for now.

Hearing Orochimaru's words.

Menma's heart was instantly filled with joy. Although he was already 80% to 90% sure that he could convince Orochimaru, when Orochimaru really agreed to his terms of the deal, Menma's inner joy still emerged uncontrollably.

As mentioned before, Orochimaru is not Menma's only option.

But it is the best choice at present.

No matter what kind of plan he implements next, Orochimaru will be his best springboard.

"By the way, I have a small request here, I hope Orochimaru can agree to it."

"Oh? What is it? Menma-kun, why don't you just speak frankly."

"That is, before I leave Konoha and go to Orochimaru-san, please help me take care of this companion of mine. She, like me, is also of the Uzumaki clan bloodline, and will be of some help to Orochimaru-san in the future."

Menma said to Orochimaru with a smile.

at the same time.

Not far away, Menma's shadow clone was protecting Karin, who was looking anxious as she flew over from the other side.

When Menma and Orochimaru are talking.

Menma has already told Karin some things through his shadow clone.

Including matters concerning the Uzumaki clan.

To be honest, just like what Karin herself said to Menma before, she no longer had any choice. When Menma put this choice in front of Karin, it was actually a single choice with no extra options.

But when she saw Orochimaru's extremely gloomy look, Karin looked like she was about to cry.

This guy doesn't look like a good person no matter how you look at it.

"Karin, Konoha is not suitable for you, and I will eventually leave Konoha. Believe me, it will only take a month at most, and I will definitely come to find you."

This is Menma's promise to Karin.

Karin is also willing to believe this promise, both because she has no choice and because she is willing to take a chance on Menma.

Xianglin believed in her own eyes and her own feelings.

"Yes! Menma, I believe you will come to pick me up."

Karin tilted her little head up, looked at Menma with a very serious and hopeful expression, and nodded in response.

Those were obviously answers with a slight tremor in the voice.

This is enough to prove that the girl's heart is not at peace.

"Yes, I will. This is our agreement."

Menma, with a touch of endless tenderness, gently rubbed Karin's smooth hair and spoke softly.

"Orochimaru-san, is everything okay?"

Menma looked at Orochimaru and said the second half of the sentence.

"Haha, of course there is no problem, Menma-kun, I've said it before, as long as you can satisfy me, I will satisfy all your requests."

When Orochimaru first saw Karin, he was stunned, then nodded indifferently and smiled grimly.

The bloodline of the Uzumaki clan.

In the early years, Orochimaru wanted to study what the huge vitality of that clan was, but he never had a qualified opportunity. Now he has two orthodox members of the Uzumaki clan, one of whom is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. They are the best research materials no matter how you look at it. Orochimaru has no reason to refuse.

"Go ahead, Karin."

Menma patted Karin's shoulder gently.

Karin also gave Menma a last, deep look, as if she was taking that step mustering up all her courage.

This is Xianglin's first "gamble" in 12 years.

This should also be the last gamble in her life.

Even though there was a deep abyss ahead, Karin took this step without hesitation and jumped directly to the side of Orochimaru.

And that was just before the two were about to leave.

"Menma-kun, this is just out of my personal curiosity. Can you tell me why you want to leave this village? Although you are not treated very well in this village, it does not seem to be a reason for you to leave this village? Oh, of course, if it is inconvenient, then forget it."

Orochimaru seemed to have thought of something. He stopped and turned to look at Menma and asked. There was another special luster reflected in his snake eyes.

"Reason?"

Menma was stunned at first, then after taking a deep breath, he looked at Orochimaru with a calm expression and said, "Is the identity of my father and mother a reason? Orochimaru-san, of course, this is just a secondary reason. What's more important is that I don't fit in with this village. If I must say, maybe I am the same as you, Orochimaru-san. This village does not have the future I want. The people and everything here make me feel an atmosphere called oppression. What I pursue is not in this village. It should even be said that this village prevents the future I want. So, I want to leave here!"

There is absolutely no falsehood in this sentence.

Since Menma came to this world, of course he not only wants to survive, he also has his own ambitions and dreams.

Of course, this ambition, this dream, is still very personal now, and he just wants to live happily.

Then he takes revenge on those who made his life unhappy.

An eye for an eye is the life philosophy that Menma believes in.

Chapter 92 This is prohibited!

A mean person? Selfish? Narrow-minded? No justice at all?

So what!?

This is a world where the strong represent everything, this is a world where power determines everything. He just wants to be a selfish person, is that not okay! ?

He is not Uzumaki Naruto.

His name is Uzumaki Menma.

To this end, the first thing he has to do is to gain the most complete freedom and greater power, which is the most basic condition.
