Naruto: Uzumaki Menma walks out of the infinite moon reading - Chapter 232

c227 Tsunade: Why did the Uzumaki clan attack Konoha?

“The so-called Son of Prophecy and Son of Destruction may be special in the eyes of Toadmaru, but in my opinion, they are just ordinary people chosen by Toadmaru. In essence, they are also human beings with limited lifespans. After thousands of years, they will still turn into a handful of yellow soil.”

The living slug explained softly: “What’s more, there is actually no difference between the Son of Destruction and the Son of Prophecy. One person cannot change the whole world.”

Menma nodded subconsciously.

Although the words of the living slug were a bit arrogant, Menma understood what it meant.

After all, the other party has lived for a thousand years, and it is estimated that everything has been seen through.

What Menma felt in it was not high and mighty, but a wise man who had experienced vicissitudes and a calm mind like a hermit.

Compared with the white snake and the old toad, the character of the living slug is more like an “immortal”.

What’s more, it is telling the truth.

No matter how great a person is, one person cannot change the world.

But…

“Living Slug, do I look like an arrogant and brainless human?”

Menma smiled and said in a gentle tone: “I have never thought that I can change the whole world by myself. There are thousands of people standing behind me.”

“If possible, I would like to hire you to the country I founded as a special teacher and doctor.”

Hearing this, the living slug was stunned.

“…I seem to understand why Gamamaru attaches so much importance to you.”

She sighed with surprise: “Humans come to the holy land mostly to pursue immortal arts and power. It is very rare for Tsunade-sama to regard me as a friend, but you, Menma-sama, are the first person who has the courage to ask me to become your subordinate.”

The living slug was indeed a little surprised by Menma’s answer. It was really the first time he saw such a strange human.

Although it calls itself “a slug that can use immortal arts”, it also knows the awe of humans towards itself.

Tsunade has a heroic character and acts without scruples, but she also dares not say such nonsense.

Menma spread his hands and said with a smile: “Your life span is too long. You signed a contract with humans just because you were bored. You hope to use the summons of humans to kill the long and boring time.”

“In that case, why not give it a try?”

After Menma said that, Huoshou stared at him and looked at him for a long time.

The scene gradually fell into silence.

Until Xiao Karin on the side subconsciously hugged Menma’s arm.

“Master Menma.”

Live Slug asked calmly: “People can never fully understand each other, and people’s hearts can never fully communicate with each other. Humans are such sad creatures.”

“As long as there are desires in the hearts of humans, the war in the ninja world will never stop. This has been the case for thousands of years, so…”

Menma shook his head and interrupted with a smile: “So, it has always been like this, right?”

“Humans are not afraid of war at all. No matter how terrible the war is, as long as everyone suffers together, they never explore the truth, and they don’t care about others understanding the truth. After the war, they are glad that they have escaped, laugh at others and leave, and finally leave a bunch of nonsense.”

“This is all fate.”

“However, I don’t believe in fate…”

Live Slug asked back: “Then have you ever thought that in the eyes of others, you are the so-called son of destruction, and everything you do may be just hypocrisy in the eyes of others, and you may not get any thanks for what you do. Even so, are you willing to help him?”

Hearing this, Menma couldn’t help but sneered: “Yes, maybe I am a bad person, maybe I am the son of destruction, but what can I do?”

“People with shallow minds often get angry because of cursing and happy because of praise. I am different from those people. I don’t want any reputation before and after death. I will stand in front of them and borrow their courage to see who dares to scold me?”

“As for what will happen thousands of years later.”

After a pause, Menma shrugged and said: “The right and wrong will be judged by future generations, and I can’t hear it.”

Menma answered the question of the living slug according to his own will.

From his words, the living slug learned his will.

Saint?

He has never been a saint who sacrifices himself for others.

No one in the world has a stronger fire of desire in his heart than him.

He knew very well that everything he did was for what he wanted.

Villain?

To some people, he was a villain.

No matter how those guys talked about him behind his back, he didn’t care.

But if someone dared to point at his nose and scold him as a villain in front of him…

Heh, there was already a way to die.

“I suddenly feel a little curious, where are you from.”

The living slug said in a gentle tone with a slight smile: “Even in the thousand years I have lived, I have never seen someone like you. You are indeed a very special existence.”

Unlike the toads with strong purpose and the white snakes with cruel nature, the living slugs are not keen on power and fighting.

In the eyes of the living slugs, human life is too short, and the so-called ideals are nothing but castles in the air. In the end, nothing will be left.

Even a “friend” like Tsunade will sooner or later be forgotten by it in the future, leaving only the cold human name.

And it will continue to exist in this world and continue to meet and get to know different humans.

This is also the reason why the living slug is so peaceful in the face of humans.

That is the path to see through the changes in things and make the final decision.

However, it is not a truly heartless and desireless “immortal” after all, so sometimes it is inevitable to feel lonely.

“So… Living Slug, what is your answer?”

Menma smiled and stretched out his hand: “Follow me, you will see more interesting things and see the ninja world heading towards an interesting future.”

“Even if I fail and die in the end, my body will still rot and there will still be bones left. That is the proof of my survival. When future generations ask, you can still tell him my story.”

“I promise that it must be a profound and unforgettable story.”

“A profound and unforgettable story? It sounds like a good way to kill time.”

Compared with the original plain and soft voice, the tone of the living slug is a little more cheerful: “Then please take care of me, Master Menma.”

After that, the living slug leaned down its huge body and held Menma’s palm with its soft tentacles.

Love, family, friendship, money, power…

Humans always worry about various things.

This kind of thing, the living slug has seen countless times.

However, this is the first time that the living slug has seen such a “pure” guy like Uzumaki Menma.

What kind of changes will such a human bring to the ninja world?

Just as Menma said, perhaps it will bring him unique and precious memories.

When recalling the meaning of the name “Uzumaki Menma” thousands of years later, perhaps it is not just an ordinary human being that is recalled.

So, the living slug also wants to give it a try, like a human, to have expectations for something.

“This is a new contract scroll, please take it, Master Menma, and sign the contract on it. As long as your chakra is enough, I will respond to your call at any time.”

The body of the living slug squirmed slightly, and a huge summoning scroll emerged from the body and was handed to Menma.

“Also, I hope that Master Menma will not use the contract seal to forcibly cancel the summoning contract between the contractor and me in the future. Such an unexpected situation has never happened before.”

“If it weren’t for you successfully convincing me, I actually wanted to make some small punishments.”

The style of this Master Menma is really as overbearing as what he said.

Menma took the scroll and scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard the slightly playful voice of the slug.

“Sorry, I won’t change the contents of the contract scroll anymore.”

After that, Menma wrote his name on the contract scroll and signed the contract again.

After confirming that the contract had taken effect, Menma looked up at the slug.

“Slug, I want to ask, you here…”

He was about to ask about the information of the other two holy places.

Buzz! !

A burst of air-breaking sound suddenly came, and it hit his back directly.

The attacker’s speed was very fast, and the power felt even more terrifying. If he was hit without any defense, Menma felt that he would also be injured.

He turned sideways without hesitation, letting the attacker’s fist pass by his body by a millimeter.

The strong wind blew Menma’s black hair, making a sharp explosion in the air.

Seeing Menma dodge so easily, the attacker seemed to know that it was impossible to hit the opponent with the sneak attack just now.

He immediately stopped his steps, turned his body with his body as the axis, and kicked fiercely with his right foot, sweeping towards Menma’s body.

The speed and power of the physical skills, including the timing of the use of the back move, were very decisive and skillful.

However, for Menma, who was proficient in all the ninjutsu, the attack lost its effect the moment the attacker exposed his position.

Menma’s face did not change, and he quickly raised his arms and lowered his center of gravity slightly.

Boom! !

Half of the terrifying force was unloaded under his feet during the fierce collision between his arms and calves, and cracks appeared on the ground.

“So it’s a strange force, I can’t stand your punch.”

Looking at the angry woman in front of him, Menma chuckled and said, “Senju… Oh no, I should call you Tsunade-ji. It’s a bit unethical to attack from behind.”

“Asshole!”

Tsunade seemed to know that it was impossible to do so, and wanted to step back and distance herself from Menma.

But Menma’s arm reached out without hesitation, grabbed her right leg before she could retract it, and threw it out.

Tsunade’s body flew out instantly, adjusted her body in the air, staggered a few steps after landing, and barely avoided the embarrassing posture.

The terrible chakra fluctuations burst out from her body, Tsunade clenched her fists fiercely, and looked up again.

But the figure in front of her disappeared at some point.

“Too slow.”

Hearing the voice coming from behind, Tsunade’s body couldn’t help but stiffen.

Hula la! !

Before she could react, a thin golden chain tore through the air like a long snake, whistling around from behind, and directly spread out to bind her.

“This is… Grandma Mito’s Diamond Lock?!”

And this guy’s way of releasing power, is it also “strange power”? !

Tsunade was startled, and then her face looked ugly.

Subconsciously struggled to break free from the golden chain that bound her body.

But no matter how hard she struggled, the golden chain remained motionless around her body, constantly absorbing and suppressing the chakra in Tsunade’s body. The more she struggled, the tighter the bond became.

“Don’t struggle. You should know the power of the diamond seal.”

Menma said calmly: “Just based on your initiative to attack me, if you didn’t have to consider the face of the living slug, you would have died now.”

“… Tsk.”

After a moment of silence, Tsunade said unconvincedly: “Is this all Amenomichu is capable of? If you can, let me go and fight me… cough!”

Before Tsunade finished her words, the chains on her body suddenly tightened, her face twisted in pain, and blood even flowed from the corners of her mouth.

Facing Tsunade’s unconvinced attitude, Menma just smiled and said: “I didn’t expect that Princess Tsunade would find such an unreasonable excuse for her failure. It really makes me laugh.”

“Tsunade-sama, Amenomichu-sama, please calm down.”

Living slug advised softly: “If it is outside the Wet Bone Forest, I will not interfere with your conflict, but please don’t fight in the Wet Bone Forest.”

This is not a plea for Tsunade or Konoha.

The hatred and conflicts between humans are not worth it in its eyes.

If Tsunade had not signed the contract, the living slug would naturally stand on Menma’s side and help him deal with Tsunade.

But Tsunade is also its contractor. The living slug treats every contractor equally and does not decide who to stand on because of the length of time.

If Tsunade and Menma must fight to the death, it will be very difficult for it to fight in the Wet Bone Forest.

Hearing this, Menma shrugged indifferently and said with a smile: “I was just defending myself, but this Tsunade-sama attacked me as soon as we met.”

After that, the golden chain slowly loosened and retracted behind him.

If it was Jiraiya or Orochimaru, it would be worth Menma’s vigilance, but Tsunade, a guy with a serious bias, is not enough for him to worry about.

Tsunade-sama, who lost her restraints, gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, but when she saw the living slug beside her, she finally snorted and pulled away.

“Living Slug, what’s wrong with this guy?”

Living Slug explained in a gentle tone: “Tsunade-sama, Amanomichi-sama also signed a spiritual contract with me, so I hope you won’t make it too difficult for me.”

“… Tsk, is that really the case?” Tsunade took a deep breath and looked at Menma angrily, “Vajra Blockade, and super strength, who the hell are you?”

“Super strength”, a special secret technique derived from the Senju fluid technique, is an extremely advanced chakra application technique. Its characteristics are to concentrate and explode the chakra in the body, and then gather it in a certain part of the body to launch a powerful and amazing physical attack.

Although super strength techniques are recorded in detail in Konoha’s library, theoretically all medical ninjas can learn them.

But that is only theoretical after all.

Tsunade has also considered letting Konoha’s medical ninjas learn super strength techniques to increase the survival rate of medical ninjas… As you can imagine, they all failed.

The strange power technique is a unique technique of the branding technique. Unless there is a personal teaching from the Senju clan, it is difficult to learn it by personal comprehension alone.

Moreover, the Diamond Seal is a blood seal technique that can only be awakened by the Uzumaki clan, and there is almost no possibility of it being stolen or learned by outsiders.

Tsunade stared at Menma with an angry look, and then looked at the red-haired Karin beside him.

“So, the leader of the Red Moon Organization, Amanomichu, turned out to be a ninja from the Uzumaki clan?”

She asked in a surprised tone: “There are still members of the Uzumaki clan alive in the ninja world, but Konoha and the Uzumaki clan have had a friendly relationship since ancient times. Why do you let the Red Moon repeatedly attack the ninjas of Konoha?”

Before Menma could answer.

Karin, who was hiding behind him, came out when she heard Tsunade’s question, and the timid expression on her face turned into resentment.

“Nonsense! Mom told me that we would end up living a homeless life worse than underground rats because Konoha didn’t help us!!”
