"The so-called Children of Prophecy and Children of Destruction may be special existences in the eyes of Gamamaru, but in my opinion they are just ordinary people selected by Gamamaru. They are essentially human beings with a limited lifespan. They will still change after thousands of years. For a handful of loess."
The living creature 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 entire world."
Menma nodded subconsciously.
Although the live snake's words were a bit arrogant, Menma understood its meaning.
After all, the other party has been alive for thousands of years, so he probably has looked past everything.
What Menma felt in him was not that he was aloof, but that he was a wise man who had gone through vicissitudes of life like a hermit and had an indifferent mind.
Compared to the white snake and the old toad, the character of the living snake is more like an "immortal".
What's more, it tells the truth.
No matter how experienced the world is, one person cannot change the world.
but……
"Damn it, do I look like an arrogant and brainless human being?"
Menma smiled and said in a gentle tone: "I never thought that I could change the whole world by myself. There are thousands of people standing behind me."
"If possible, I would also like to hire you to be a special teacher and physician in the country I founded."
Hearing this, the living creature couldn't help but froze for a moment.
"...I seem to understand why Gamamaru values you so much."
She couldn't hide her surprise and sighed: "Humans come to the Holy Land mostly to pursue magic and power. It is very rare for Tsunade-sama to treat me as a friend, but Menma-sama, you are the first to have the courage to say that you want me to be your subordinate." people."
The live dragon was indeed a little surprised by Mian Ma's answer. It was the first time he had seen such a strange human being.
Although it calls itself "a slug that can use magic", it also knows that humans have awe for itself.
Tsunade has a bold personality and acts without scruples, but she also doesn't dare to say such nonsense.
Menma spread his hands and said with a smile: "Your lifespan is too long. You only signed a contract with humans because you were bored. I hope to use the summons of humans to pass the long and boring time."
"In that case, why not give it a try?"
After Menma said that, the living creature stared at him for a long time.
The scene gradually fell into silence.
Until Xiao Xianglan on the side subconsciously hugged Menma's arm.
"Menma-sama."
The living creature asked calmly: "It is absolutely impossible for people to fully understand each other, and there is no complete communication between people's hearts. Human beings are such sad creatures."
"As long as there is still desire in human hearts, 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's always been like this, right?"
"Human beings are not afraid of war at all. No matter how terrible the war is, as long as everyone is unlucky together, they never explore the truth and disdain others to understand the truth. After the war, they are glad that they escaped and laughed at others and left. In the end Drop a bastard remark.”
"This is life."
"However, I don't believe in fate..."
The living beetle 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 everything you do, even if So are you willing to help him?"
Hearing this, Menma couldn't help but sneered: "Yes, maybe I am a villain, maybe I am the Son of Destruction, but so what?"
"Shallow-minded people often get angry because of curses and feel happy because of praises. I am different from those people. I don't want any reputation during my lifetime. I just stand in front of them and borrow their courage to see who dares to curse. I?"
"As for what will happen after thousands of years."
After a pause, Menma shrugged and said, "Future generations will comment on right and wrong, and I can't hear it."
Menma answered the snake's question according to his own will.
From his words, the living creature learned his will.
saint?
He has never been a saint who sacrificed himself for others.
No one in this world has a stronger fire of desire than him.
He knew very well that everything he did was for what he wanted in his heart.
the wicked?
To some, he is a villain.
No matter how those guys talk and comment behind his back, he doesn't care.
However, if someone dares to point his nose in front of him and scold him as a villain...
Oh, there is already a way to die.
"I suddenly feel a little curious about where you are from."
The living beetle said in a gentle tone with a slight smile: "Even in the thousands of years I have been alive, I have never seen someone like you. You are indeed a very special existence."
Unlike the toad, which has a strong purpose, and the white snake, which is cruel in nature, the live snake is not keen on strength and fighting.
In the eyes of a living creature, human life is too short, and so-called ideals are nothing but castles in the air. In the end, nothing will be left.
Even "friends" like Tsunade will be forgotten sooner or later in the future, leaving only their cold human names.
And it will continue to exist in this world and continue to meet different human beings.
This is why live beetles are so peaceful when facing humans.
That is the way to see through the changes in things and make the final decision.
However, it is not a truly heartless "immortal" after all, so it is inevitable that it will feel lonely sometimes.
"So...livelid, what's 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 leave bones. That is the proof of my survival. When future generations ask, you can still tell my story to them."
"I promise, it will be a profound and unforgettable story."
"A profound and unforgettable story? Sounds like a great way to pass the time."
Compared with the original gentle voice, the tone of the living creature was a little more cheerful: "Then, please take care of me, Menma-sama."
After saying that, the living snake leaned down its huge body and grasped Menma's hand with its soft tentacles.
Love, family, friendship, money, power...
Human beings are always troubled by various things.
This kind of thing has already been seen countless times.
However, this was the first time he had encountered a "pure" guy like Uzumaki Menma.
What changes would such a human being bring to the ninja world?
Just like Menma said, it may bring you unique and precious memories.
Recalling the meaning of the name "Uzumaki Menma" thousands of years later, perhaps he is recalling more than just an ordinary human being.
Therefore, the live dragon also wants to give it a try, and have expectations for something like humans do.
"This is a new contract scroll. Master Menma, please take it and sign the contract on it. As long as your chakra is enough to bear it, I will respond to your call at any time."
The body of the living dragon squirmed slightly, and a huge psychic scroll emerged from the body and was handed to Menma.
"Also, I hope that Lord Menma will not use the contract seal to forcefully terminate the psychic 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 would actually want to impose some minor punishments."
This Menma-sama's behavior is really as domineering as his words.
Menma took the scroll and couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment when he heard the playful sound of the live snake.
"I'm 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 raised his head and looked at the live dragon.
"Jiaoji, I want to ask, where are you..."
When he was about to ask for information about the other two holy places.
Buzz!
A sound that broke through the air suddenly came, hitting him directly on the back.
The speed of the sneak attacker was very fast, and the power felt even more terrifying. If he was hit unprepared, Menma felt that he would also be injured.
He turned sideways without hesitation, allowing the attacker's fist to pass by his body within a hair's breadth.
The strong wind blew up Menma's black hair, sending a harsh blast in the air.
Seeing Menma dodge so easily, the sneak attacker seemed to know that it was impossible to hit the opponent with the level of sneak attack just now.
He immediately stopped, turned his body around his body, and kicked fiercely with his right foot, sweeping towards Menma's body.
The speed and strength of his physical skills, including the timing of his back moves, are very decisive and skillful.
However, for Menma, who is proficient in Ninja Genquan, the attack has lost its effect the moment the attacker reveals his position.
Menma's expression did not change, he quickly raised his arms and lowered his center of gravity slightly.
boom!
Between the fierce collision between the arms and calves, half of the terrifying force was discharged to the feet, causing cracks on the ground.
"It turns out to be strange strength. I can't bear your punch."
Looking at the angry woman in front of him, Menma chuckled and said, "Senju...oh no, I should call you Tsunade-hime. It's unethical to attack from behind."
"asshole!"
Tsunade seemed to know that it couldn't be done, and wanted to step back and distance herself from Menma.
But Menma's arm reached out without hesitation, grabbed her right leg that she had no time to retract, and swung it out hard.
Tsunade's body flew out in an instant, adjusted her body in the air, staggered a few steps after landing, and barely avoided the awkward posture.
Terrible chakra fluctuations erupted from the body. Tsunade clenched her fists tightly and looked up in front of her again.
But the figure in front of him disappeared without knowing when.
"too slow."
Hearing the voice coming from behind, Tsunade's body stiffened.
Wow!
Before she could react, a slender golden chain tore through the air like a long snake, whizzed around behind her and spread out to tie her up.
】
"This is...Grandma Mito's King Kong Blockade?!"
Also, is this guy's way of releasing his power also "strange power"? !
Tsunade was startled, and then her expression turned ugly.
He struggled subconsciously, trying to break free from the golden chains that bound his body.
But no matter how hard he struggled, the golden chains remained motionless around his body, continuously absorbing and suppressing the chakra in Tsunade's body. The more he struggled, the tighter the chains became.
"Stop struggling, you should be well aware of the power of King Kong's blockade."
Menma said in a calm tone: "Just because you took the initiative to attack me, if you didn't take the face of the living dragon into consideration, you would be dead by now."
"...Tsk."
After a moment of silence, Tsunade spoke unconvincedly: "Is this all that Tian Zhizhong is capable of? If you can, let me go and fight with me to the flesh...cough!"
Before Tsunade could finish her words, the chains on her body suddenly tightened, her face twisted in pain, and blood even flowed from the corners of her mouth.
Faced with Tsunade's unconvinced attitude, Menma just smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Tsunade-hime would find such unreasonable excuses for her failure. It really makes me feel ridiculous."
"Tsunade-sama, Tennogochu-sama, please calm down."
The living creature persuaded in a gentle tone: "If it were outside the Shiggy Bone Forest, I would not interfere with your conflict, but please don't fight in the Shiggy Bone Forest."
This was not a plea for Tsunade or Konoha.
The hatred and conflicts between humans are not worth caring about in its eyes.
If Tsunade didn't sign the contract, the living dragon would naturally side with Menma and help him deal with Tsunade.
But Tsunade is also its contractor. The living snake treats every contractor equally and will not decide whose side to side with based on the length of time.
If Tsunade and Menma had to fight for life or death, it would be very difficult to fight in the Shimogun Forest.
Hearing this, Menma shrugged nonchalantly and said with a smile: "I was just acting in self-defense, but this Tsunade-hime attacked me as soon as we met."
After saying that, the golden chain slowly loosened and was put back behind him.
If it were Jiraiya or Orochimaru, Menma would be a bit wary of them, but for a guy like Tsunade who was seriously partial to science, it wouldn't be enough for him to worry about.
Unfettered, Tsunade-hime gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, but when she saw the live snake beside her, she finally snorted and distanced herself.
"What's going on with this guy?"
The living creature explained in a gentle tone: "Tsunade-sama, Tennogochu-sama also signed a psychic 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, "King Kong blockade, and strange powers, who are you?"
"Monster Power" is a special secret technique derived from the Senju Fluid Technique. It is an extremely advanced chakra application technique. Its characteristic is to concentrate and explode the chakra in the body, and then gather it in a certain part of the body to create a powerful and powerful attack. Amazing physical attack.
Although the strange power technique has detailed records in Konoha's library, theoretically all medical ninjas can learn it.
But that's just theoretical stuff after all.
It's not like Tsunade has not considered asking Konoha's medical ninjas to learn strange power techniques to increase the survival probability of medical ninjas... As you can imagine, they all failed.
The strange power technique is an original technique unique to the Brand Master. Unless it is personally taught by the Senju clan, it is difficult to learn it based on personal understanding.
Moreover, King Kong Blockade is a bloodline sealing 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 angry eyes, and then looked at the red-haired Karin next to him.
"So, the leader of the Akatsuki Organization, Amano Onaka, turns out to be a ninja from the Uzumaki clan?"
She asked in a surprised tone: "There are actually members of the Uzumaki clan alive in the ninja world, but Konoha and the Uzumaki clan have had a good alliance since ancient times. Why do you still allow Akatsuki to attack Konoha's ninjas repeatedly?"
He didn't wait for Menma to reply.
Xiao Xianglan, who was originally hiding behind him, came out when he heard Tsunade's question, and the timid expression on his face turned into anger.
"Nonsense! Mom told me that we would live a wandering life worse than underground rats just because of Konoha's refusal to save us!
"
