Chapter 341 Namikaze Menma
In the 53rd year of Konoha, after 5 years, the wounds of the Nine-tailed Fox disaster have been repaired, the foreign war has ended, and the whole village is prosperous.
But behind this prosperity, the resentment from the Uchiha clan is constantly accumulating.
After the Nine-tailed Fox disaster, the clan lands of each family were redivided, and the clan land of the Uchiha clan, which was originally in the central area of Konoha Village, was divided into remote areas of Konoha.
This is undoubtedly a suppression of the Uchiha family, and this suppression makes the Uchiha clan, who claim to be the largest clan, feel extremely humiliated, and the relationship between the village and the Uchiha is cold to the freezing point.
In the Namikaze family next to the Hokage Building, Namikaze Menma, the orphan of Minato, is very uncomfortable at this time.
She looked at the cute little person in the mirror and couldn't help sighing. This is too beautiful, with big blue eyes and soft yellow long hair shawls, just like a fairy.
But when this extremely cute fairy is herself, it's a bit hard to adapt.
The cute person in front of the mirror closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her blue eyes flashed with a sharp light.
Unlike the cuteness before, Menma is now full of heroic spirit, and this is her original temperament.
Sometimes fate is just like this. She is really reborn! Although her gender has changed.
In the past five years, she was afraid of waking up from the dream, afraid that after waking up, she would have to face the traitor herself and Sasuke who was blinded by hatred.
The memory of the previous life was a little vague, and even his own appearance could not be remembered, but Menma still remembered those key things.
In the previous life, she was called the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, and her best friend was Uchiha Sasuke.
She was called the Nine-tailed Demon Fox and grew up in abuse and hatred since she was a child. At the age of 5, she made her first friend, who was Uchiha Sasuke.
Sasuke did not dislike her because she was the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, and she was not timid because of the name of Uchiha.
Although the abuse of the villagers still existed, she began to care less because she was no longer alone.
In order to have the strength to match her friend, she worked hard to train her own chakra, and became the second only to Sasuke in the ninja school.
Even though she had excellent grades, except for Sasuke, other children were still afraid of her, the demon fox, and she completely gave up the idea of making friends again.
Everything was fine until the Uchiha clan was exterminated and Sasuke became the last Uchiha clan member in Konoha. His personality changed drastically and became difficult to approach, but he was still her only friend.
After that, she was in the same class with Sasuke and followed the class teacher to carry out tasks.
During the Chunin Exam when she was 12 years old, Orochimaru attacked, and in the end it was the Third Hokage who used the Shiki Fuujin to cripple Orochimaru's hands and made him retreat.
If it was just like this, it wouldn't matter, after all, she didn't have any feelings for Konoha, but the problem was that Sasuke was bewitched by Orochimaru and followed him to become a rebel ninja.
She fought with Sasuke in the Valley of the End, trying to make Sasuke turn back, but she failed in the end.
Unwilling to lose his only friend, Menma chose to rebel with Sasuke and follow Orochimaru to leave Konoha.
She couldn't remember what happened afterwards, but she knew that Orochimaru was definitely not a good person, so she must not repeat the same mistake in this life.
Menma looked in the mirror, tied her hair neatly into a single ponytail, and pushed the door open.
At the window of the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the newspaper and looked at the distant Namikaze Menma kindly.
"I didn't expect the two siblings to know each other in this way, but Uchiha Sasuke is the son of the Uchiha clan leader." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said helplessly.
Then the Third Hokage took a puff of cigarette, pondered for a moment, and finally chose to let it go. The three people might be the opportunity for the village and Uchiha to reconcile.
On the other side, Menma came to the stream in the village. Looking at the familiar environment, she couldn't help but relax.
There are few people here. It is a place where only she and Sasuke will come. When she thought of this, a solemn look appeared on her face.
Yesterday, she came to the stream at the pace of her previous life, and as soon as she arrived, she saw the little yellow-haired boy beating her best friend Sasuke.
She was shocked at the time. Uchiha Sasuke, who she could never beat in her previous life, was actually beaten up by this yellow-haired boy.
But she immediately felt strange. It was obvious that she should be beaten up by Sasuke at this time in her previous life. How could Sasuke be beaten up by an unknown little yellow-haired boy?
With a feeling of dissatisfaction, she ran over directly and beat up her best friend and the yellow-haired boy together with the scattered battle memories of her previous life.
After beating up the two, the dissatisfaction dissipated.
When she came to her senses and looked at the two people struggling on the ground, she was dumbfounded. How could she be friends with her best friend again after being beaten up for no reason?
In the end, because she really didn't know what to say, she shouted to the two people to come back tomorrow and ran away.
Today, she needs to apologize for beating someone up yesterday. She knows Sasuke will definitely come because the honor of the Uchiha clan does not allow him to escape.
While she was thinking about how to apologize, two crisp voices came from behind her.
"Namikaze Menma, I, Uchiha Sasuke, want to challenge you."
"I want to beat you back, too. I am Uzumaki Naruto."
Menma turned around and saw the serious face of her best friend Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, whom she called the yellow-haired boy.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to beat you up yesterday. I just wanted to be friends with you."
Menma bowed slightly, and apologized cleanly and neatly, which made people completely unable to find fault with him.
Sasuke and Naruto reacted differently to the apology.
When Naruto heard that Menma wanted to make friends with him, a smile spread across his face, and he directly forgot about being beaten up by Menma yesterday.
Sasuke clenched his fists and became unhappy. He was beaten by the stupid Naruto next to him, and then beaten by the girl Menma. How could he just let it go like that? You know, he is a proud Uchiha.
"Damn it, as for the apology, I'll apologize to you after I beat you down." Sasuke roared.
"You can try, I will apologize to you again." Menma said unceremoniously.
Sasuke strode towards Menma, clenching his fists tightly, ready to give Menma a hard blow later.
In Menma's eyes, Sasuke's actions were all flaws. Although the memory of the previous life was vague, the combat experience gained from it was still not comparable to that of a child.
A minute later, Menma pinned Sasuke down.
"I lost again." Sasuke said unwillingly.
"I am the son of the Hokage after all. Sasuke, you have no complaints about losing. Of course, if you are dissatisfied, you are welcome to challenge me in the future." Menma stood up and said calmly.
Sasuke stood up and looked at Menma without saying a word. He knew that he could not beat this Namikaze Menma now.
"Menma, you are obviously the same age as us, why are you so strong?" Naruto asked doubtfully.
"It may be because of the usual training. If you want to become stronger, you can also come together. Of course, it will be very hard." Menma said calmly.
"Will becoming stronger make more friends?" Naruto asked.
"It shouldn't be." Menma pondered for a while and then said.
Although he was told that becoming stronger could not change the unpopular status quo, Naruto still chose to go to training together.
Sasuke on the side hesitated. Menma knew that if little Sasuke continued to hesitate like this, he would definitely not go to train together.
"Is this the extent of Uchiha's tolerance?" Menma said calmly.
"Asshole, you can't insult Uchiha even if you are the son of a hero." Sasuke said angrily.
"Then what are you hesitating about." Menma asked.
"Come on, start now." Sasuke clenched his fist and said seriously.
In this way, the three of them sat side by side by the stream, and Menma taught Sasuke and Naruto to refine chakra.
The Uchiha clan members and Anbu ninjas hiding in the dark were all sweating. They were responsible for protecting Sasuke and Naruto respectively. If these two people had problems with their training, it would be difficult to deal with.
You must know that chakra refinement can only be learned at the Ninja Academy, and now they are only 5 years old.
Of course, if there is really a problem, they will take action immediately and will never let the protected person get into trouble.
But they don't know that the chakra refining technique taught by Namikaze Menma is different from what they have learned. This is a special refining method in Menma's previous life. It is risk-free and very easy to use for all ages.
The Anbu responsible for protecting Menma and the old man of the third generation only thought that Menma was a special individual, and did not think of the difference in chakra refining techniques.
Menma has been quietly refining chakra for 5 years. Of course, when fighting with Sasuke and Naruto, she did not use chakra. After all, if she really used chakra, it would not be as simple as beating.
