Naruto: I'm in Konoha, my name is Uzumaki Menma

Chapter 56 Nine-Faced Beast VS Kusagakure

The fierce battle lasted only a few minutes, and the ninjas of the Grass Village suffered heavy casualties.

With overwhelming power, the Nine-Faced Beast cleared out a large area around the hospital from the ninjas of the Grass Village.

Led by Captain Ryuu, the Kusagakure ANBU ninjas fought desperately to protect Kusagakure leader Kouji Kusanagi, using various ninjutsu techniques to weave a net and barely manage to block the combined attack of Genbu and Suzaku.

Meanwhile, the brothers Wuwei and Wuchang relied on their family's secret fire escape technique to fight and retreat.

"Fire Release: Demon Lantern!" Wuchang dodged Qinglong's pursuit, retreating swiftly while his hands rapidly formed hand seals.

In an instant, countless fiery red ghost faces appeared around Wuchang, emitting mournful howls, and rushed towards the pursuing Azure Dragon!
"Fire Release: Heavenly Prison Fire Sword!" Wuwei gathered fire-attribute chakra in his right hand, solidifying it into a blazing longsword, and thrust it towards the attacking white tiger.

The Azure Dragon's body withstood the Impermanence's Ghost Lantern, and a ball of lightning suddenly shot out from its mouth, gathering lightning-attribute chakra!
"What!" Wuchang's pupils shrank sharply. This strange summoning beast was not only huge and thick-skinned, but it could also use lightning release ninjutsu.

Meanwhile, just as Wuwei's Heavenly Prison Fire Sword was about to approach the white tiger wearing a mask, the tiger suddenly turned into a blurry phantom.

"Not good!" Wuwei hurriedly withdrew the Heavenly Prison Fire Sword to defend, and relying on his fighting instincts, he swung the fire sword in his hand to the left.

The Heavenly Prison Fire Sword slashed across the White Tiger's head, and the White Tiger had already closed in on Wuwei!

A huge tiger claw slammed down towards Wuwei's chest.

puff!
Wuwei flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, his blood drawing an arc in the air.

"Brother!" Wuchang's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly broke away from the battle with Qinglong and instantly arrived at the side of the injured Wuwei.

at the same time.

The Southern and Northern Sages also began to use binding techniques on Kusanagi Kouji, the leader of Kusanagi Village, and the ANBU ninja around him.

A purple magic circle rose from beneath the feet of Kusanagi Kouji, Ryuu, and the others, instantly immobilizing them.

Kusanagi Kouji felt his whole body stiffen, and his chakra became as stagnant as swamp.

"Damn it! What is this?!" Kusanagi Kouji roared, unable to break free from the battle between Genbu and Suzaku.

Xuanwu's steel body attacked again!
Like a hundred-ton truck, it crashed solidly into Koji Kusanagi.

Koji Kusanagi was knocked away and then hit in mid-air by Suzaku's Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique.

The smell of burning filled the air.

"Lord Kusanagi!" The Kusanagi Village's ANBU captain, Ryuu, was furious, but could only watch helplessly as his leader was knocked away and hit by a ninjutsu.

call out--

Several wind blades struck, whistling as they arrived. The imprisoned Long Xi and other Anbu ninjas fell one after another, and the battle line completely collapsed.

Moments later, the area around the hospital building in Kusagakure was littered with corpses.

Even their leader, Koji Kusanagi, and the captain of the Dark Army were missing and their fates unknown. Lacking organization and leadership, the other Kusanagi ninja fled in disarray.

Soon, only a small group of Grass Ninja, led by the brothers Wuwei and Wuchang, remained around the hospital building, putting up a difficult resistance.

More grass ninjas retreated to the outer perimeter, and the villagers fled in panic, plunging the entire village into chaos.

"Is that all?" Menma held the swirling vanilla in his arms, not even lifting a finger, yet the Nine-Faced Beast was about to destroy the small village.

The brothers Wuwei and Wuchang truly lived up to their reputation as the future lords of Hozuki Castle. Even after the elite ninjas, including their leader Kusanagi Kouji, suffered heavy casualties, they were still able to organize a portion of the ninjas to fight against the enemy.

However, as Kusanagi Kouji and Ryuuichi and other Kusanagi ninjas were killed or wounded, and the other Kusanagi ninjas retreated, only a small number of Kusanagi ninjas led by them remained to resist.

After dealing with the others, the five nine-faced beasts—Vermilion Bird, Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Golden Serpent—began to besiege the brothers Wuwei and Wuchang.

"Brother! Use that move!" Seeing the situation was dire, Wuchang gritted his teeth and shouted, preparing to use the binding technique that he had not yet fully mastered.

"Cough... Let me do it!" Wuwei was seriously injured. The white tiger had slapped his chest with its claws, leaving three bloody wounds that exposed bone and were dripping with blood.

He coughed up blood and struggled to stand up, but staggered and fell to the ground. "Brother!" Wuchang no longer hesitated, his right hand forming a hand seal, and began to gather fire-attribute chakra.

As his right palm was completely enveloped in fire-attribute chakra, a surge of scorching chakra erupted from it. This chakra wriggled and danced in the air, transforming into five fiery red chains that flew toward the five nine-faced beasts in front of him.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Prison!" Despite feeling his chakra rapidly draining away, Wuchang forced himself to endure the discomfort and unleashed this binding technique, a skill mastered only by a select few members of the Wu clan!
It is said that the Great Fire Prison is so powerful that it can imprison tailed beasts!

In the movie where Hozuki Castle appears, Naruto and his friends suppress the monster 'Satoru' that emerges from the Box of Elysium.

The lord of Hozuki Castle, Muwei, used the Great Fire Prison to imprison him, and then cooperated with Naruto to use Wind Release: Rasenshuriken to kill him.

It shows how powerful it is.

Five flame-like chakra chains bound the Vermilion Bird, Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Golden Serpent. Fiery red chain marks appeared on the bodies of the five nine-faced beasts, and their movements were restricted.

"Great!"

"As expected of Lord Wuchang!"

Seeing their formidable enemy imprisoned, the other Grass Ninja cheered and prepared to launch a counterattack.

But the next moment.

The five imprisoned nine-faced beasts, their bodies rippling like the surface of a lake, vanished in an instant.

"What!" Wuchang was shocked to sense the disappearance of the chakra of the Great Fire Prison.

But when he focused his gaze on the center of the battlefield, he discovered that the mysterious masked man from before had vanished.

"When?!" Wuchang was covered in cold sweat, completely unaware of when the enemy had disappeared.

With the help of his ninja subordinates, Wuwei slowly stood up and walked towards the center of the battlefield, towards the corpse of Kusanagi Kouji.

The once-mighty Kusanagi Village suffered severe damage in this great battle, and even its leader, Koji Kusanagi, perished in the fighting.

Amidst the billowing smoke, Wuwei knelt before the charred body of Kusanagi Kouji, gazing at the devastated village, and whispered bitterly, "Lord Kusanagi, you shouldn't have taken in the scourge of the Uzumaki clan back then..."

------

Wochao Village Ruins.

Those former hideouts of wandering ninjas have now become Menma's stronghold.

He gently placed the awakened vortex vanilla on the bed.

“Mom…” Karin knelt before the bed, holding her mother’s hand tightly, tears streaming down her face.

Exhausted to the extreme, Vanilla Uzumaki gave her daughter a forced smile, then looked up at the masked man so close to her and pleaded, "Sir... please adopt this child..."

Whirlpool Grass, barely breathing, still struggled to lift her head: "She'll do anything... as long as it keeps her alive..."

She could clearly sense that her life force was almost gone, and she knew that once she died, the Grass Village would make Karin continue to serve them, and sooner or later she would be drained of her chakra and life force just like her.

Vanilla Whirlpool, as a mother, only wanted to grasp the last hope for her daughter to live.

"Who gave you permission to die?" The voice beneath the white three-eyed fox mask was cold and authoritative.

Although Menma has not yet mastered the 'Yin-Yang Release Technique', he cannot transfer chakra and life force to Uzumaki Vanilla.

But don't forget, he's also a member of the Uzumaki clan!
Mianma untied the red cloth binding her wrist and extended it in front of Whirlpool Vanilla.

"Bite it." The voice beneath the mask brooked no refusal.
