The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

However, Menma didn't look at Naruto even once throughout the entire process. After finishing his self-introduction, he sat down quietly.

After Naruto glanced at Menma again and felt that everything was normal again, he realized that Menma was normal.

Naruto, with his rather carefree personality, simply stopped caring.

Perhaps it was just a momentary illusion.

Chapter 12 One Year and the Extinction of the Clan

However, Naruto didn't notice that as he turned around and focused his attention back on Iruka and his classmates...

The man in the back seat glanced at his back with a deep look in his eyes.

Envy, jealousy, or even a trace of resentment?

Perhaps all of these are true.

But just like Naruto felt a moment of familiarity with Masaru.

Menma, who was 100% certain that the two were brothers, had an even more special feeling towards Naruto. All his suffering had nothing to do with Naruto, and Naruto couldn't possibly be like him, possessing a strong sense of self as soon as he was born into this world.

Naruto was merely someone who was half-fooled by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Menma is indeed very jealous of Naruto's current living environment.

Even at times, he couldn't help but feel resentful.

Why should they be treated so differently when they are born of the same parents? But in the end, the bond of blood held back Menma's negative emotions. He could hate everyone else, but he couldn't hate Naruto!

This is my own younger brother!

Even if Naruto was only born a little later than him, Menma was certain that he was the older brother and Naruto was the younger brother.

Another important reason is that Menma also had a younger brother in his previous life, and he was just as carefree and optimistic in personality, which seems to overlap with Naruto in some way.

This makes Menma's feelings for Naruto even more special.

'Naruto, I hope your future won't lead you down a completely opposite path to mine.'

Menma took a deep look at Naruto's back and thought to himself.

"Very good, now everyone has a basic understanding of each other. From the moment you stepped into the Ninja Academy, you can already be considered prospective ninjas. How high you want to achieve in the future depends on talent, but hard work is another matter. Those who are lazy will not even be able to graduate, let alone become excellent ninjas. I think none of you want to see your classmates graduate one after another while you are endlessly repeating grades, right? This all depends on your own level of effort! A weak foundation will lead to an unstable foundation. I hope you will all keep this in mind!"

Iruka looked at the dozens of children below with a serious expression and said in a deep voice.

Whether you listen or not is up to you.

Can you fully understand this?

This isn't very important right now, but the initial stance needs to be made clear!

As a class advisor.

Iruka doesn't want any students to fall too far behind in the next six years.

This is his duty as a teacher.

"Yes, Teacher Iruka!"

The children below, at least outwardly, were still cooperating with their homeroom teacher, responding in unison at this moment.

"Hmm! Very good. Now, let's begin our first lesson: what is a ninja, and what is the essence of a ninja...?"

The first day at the Ninja Academy.

It was just that peaceful and tranquil.

Although Menma's enrollment caused quite a stir in some areas, it ultimately did not cause too much of a disturbance. In the current Hidden Leaf Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi still possesses absolute prestige and power.

In other words, the older people get, the more indecisive they become.

Otherwise, let alone others, even Danzo Shimura wouldn't be able to cause any trouble unless Hiruzen Sarutobi allowed it.

Ultimately, Danzo's ability to commit so many evil deeds was partly due to Danzo's own actions, and partly due to Hiruzen Sarutobi's own indulgence.

Therefore, as long as Hiruzen Sarutobi maintains a firm stance...

Mianma's daily life and education will not have too many problems.

In fact.

On his first day at the Ninja Academy, Menma encountered many strange looks from 'ordinary people', but no one stood up to question him because it was the 'Hokage's order'!

They can talk about it in private.

When there are few people around, he looks at Menma with blatant hostility.

But it must never be revealed in public.

Of course, this has no practical significance.

However, Mianma was already satisfied. It was just a few glances; it wouldn't cost him anything, so why bother?

sunset.

Dusk is approaching.

The first day after the Ninja Academy ended.

Menma was the last to leave the ninja academy, standing at the main gate, looking at the teaching building enveloped in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Watching the children depart in other directions, bathed in the glow of the setting sun.

Mianma's expression was slightly cold; this was not Mianma's place.

Instead, it is a cage that binds the face.

One day, he will break free of this cage with his own hands and gain true freedom.

'This is just the first real step! No one can hold me back from my future!!'

After taking a deep breath, Menma turned around and walked along another path, gradually disappearing into the shadows.

The beginning of my ninja academy life.

In the days to come.

Mianma's life is much more regular than it has been in the previous five years, almost a three-point line of life.

Ninja Academy – Home – Jungle Personal Training Ground

While continuously improving my physical fitness.

He gradually improved his control over chakra.

Just a few months after enrolling, Menma officially put stable chakra control on the agenda.

Climbing trees and wading through water are the two most basic chakra controls.

It should also be incorporated into one's own cultivation plan.

Before they had the opportunity to learn ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu.

These basic training methods have been the focus of Mianma's training recently.

As Menma immersed herself in the activity, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, more than a year had passed.

The year 55 of Konoha arrived in June.

One morning.

As always, Menma finished her morning training and headed towards the Ninja Academy.

Along the way, they encountered several ninjas in a hurry.

Each of them wore a stern expression.

On the main road that must be passed.

The people in the surrounding area all wore expressions that seemed to be shocked, terrified, or incredulous.

'Huh? What on earth happened?!'

As long as there are no problems with the eyes and brain.

You can definitely tell that something big must have happened in the village.

But Mianma couldn't figure out what had happened.

However, this question only persisted until the Ninja Academy, when class time had already passed, but one figure still hadn't arrived.

Suddenly, a realization dawned on Mianma's mind.

'So it's the plot about the Uchiha clan being wiped out!'

Looking at Uchiha Sasuke's empty seat.

Menma immediately recalled one of the most important plot points from the original work.

Chapter 13 Goals and Choices

The Uchiha clan!

This is a ninja clan with a history of nearly a thousand years. It is an undisputed elite ninja clan in the ninja world. In the past, there were very few ninja clans that could rival the Uchiha clan. In the last hundred years, only one or two ninja clans have been able to compare with the Uchiha clan.

In the era of the Five Great Nations, after the Senju clan disappeared for unknown reasons, the Uchiha clan became the undisputed number one powerful clan in the ninja world.

Even in Konoha, the Hyuga clan always boasted that their clan was a powerful family on par with the Uchiha clan.

But what is the actual situation?

The eyes of the people from all the nations of the ninja world are as clear as mirrors.

It can be said that the Uchiha clan represents power.

Such a ninja clan holds immense significance and value for a ninja village! To say nothing of other factors, the Uchiha clan alone possessing dozens of Jonin with three tomoe is a terrifying fighting force.

The reason why high-ranking members like Hiruzen Sarutobi were wary of the Uchiha clan was precisely because of this.

Otherwise, if there were only a dozen or twenty Jonin, or even fewer, would Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo have anything to worry about?
