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

Chapter 92 First, kidnap a white person
Inside the inn, the dim light illuminated the cold glow of the specially made Flying Thunder God kunai in Orochimaru's hand. He stared at the familiar runes on the kunai, his snake-like eyes flashing with contemplation.

The hotel owner stood there with vacant eyes.

Orochimaru had just thought that Shura was going to temporarily place the child with the Ice Release bloodline limit at the inn and make further plans after they went to Kirigakure.

Unexpectedly, after Orochimaru followed, Shura casually handed him a Flying Thunder God kunai and, right in front of him, used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly disappear with the child.

"Tsk tsk, this is really a useful ninjutsu. If it's from here to the Land of Bears..." Orochimaru licked his lips lightly, his snake-like eyes contracting with excitement.

That's a distance spanning most of the ninja world!
Just how much chakra does that Shura guy have?!

It's important to know that even the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, who invented the Flying Thunder God Technique, and the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, who became famous throughout the ninja world for using the Flying Thunder God Technique in the Third Shinobi World War!

The two of them needed to use the Flying Thunder God Technique several times in succession to travel from Konoha to the battlefield on the front lines.

"Shura, who exactly are you?" Orochimaru muttered to himself, toying with the specially made Flying Thunder God kunai in his hand.

While Orochimaru was waiting at the inn in the Land of Water.

Menma, along with Haku, had already crossed most of the ninja world using the Flying Thunder God Technique and arrived at their base in the Land of Bears.

After landing, Mianma led Bai towards the family compound.

In the snow-covered military zone, two Star Ninjas immediately knelt on one knee: "My lord!"

"Go and call Xiangcao over," Menma instructed briefly.

"Yes, sir!" The two patrolling Star Ninja bowed respectfully and immediately went to carry out their orders.

This family compound is located on the east side of the capital of the Bear Kingdom, between the military and administrative districts, and is mainly inhabited by the core members of the Star Ninja Village and the organization.

Menma also has a residence here.

Soon after, Whirlpool Vanilla arrived in a hurry.

"Lord Shura!" Upon seeing Menma with a child, Uzumaki Kaoru respectfully addressed Menma as Shura.

“This child is named Shiro, the last surviving member of the Snow Clan,” Menma introduced to Kusanagi. “His mother was the last member of the Snow Clan. After marrying an ordinary man, she was considered an omen of bad luck by his father and the villagers because of the Ice Release bloodline limit he displayed, and they killed his mother…”

Hearing about such similar experiences, Vanilla Whirlpool's eyes softened instantly, overflowing with maternal love and compassion. She knelt down and gently said to Bai, "Hello, my name is Vanilla Whirlpool, you can call me Aunt Vanilla."

"Um..." Bai timidly hid behind Menma.

The woman patted Bai's head with her mahjong-like hand, looked down at him and said, "This will be your home from now on. Aunt Xiangcao will take care of you. Be a good girl, okay?"

Seemingly to dispel Bai's wariness and suspicion, Vortex Vanilla activated the Vajra Lockdown: "Don't worry about your abilities. Look, Auntie also has special abilities."

A golden chakra chain emerged from behind her, swaying in the air like a tail.

Upon seeing the chakra chain, Haku's eyes lit up, and he lost all wariness towards the red-haired aunt in front of him.

Mianma gently supported the back of Bai's head with one hand, encouraging him to move forward.

Bai slowly walked over and was embraced by Vortex Vanilla.

"I'll leave Shiro in your care. I still have some things to take care of." Menma entrusted Shiro to Uzumaki Vanilla with peace of mind.

Then he added, "Make a few rooms available; some children with bloodline limits might come over in a while."

"Yes, sir!" Whirlpool Vanilla stood up, took White's hand, and respectfully watched Menma leave.

After Menma left using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Uzumaki Vanilla looked down at Shiro, who looked as cute as a little rabbit. Overwhelmed with maternal love, she smiled and said, "Auntie will take you to take a bath. There are some clothes I bought for Karin that she hasn't worn yet. You'll look very cute in them."

"You're back?" In the Land of Water, Orochimaru was standing by the window watching the snow falling all around him. Hearing the noise inside, he turned his head slightly.

As he turned around, he saw the mahjong kunai being put back into the ninja tool pouch.

'Strange, I feel like I've forgotten something.' Menma landed using the Flying Thunder God Technique and felt a void in his heart.

Did you forget something? I can't remember.

As Orochimaru approached, Menma temporarily put the problem out of his mind, since he didn't feel anything too serious about it and it was probably just a minor matter.

"Let's go, let's take a stroll around Kirigakure." Menma got up and walked outside.

Orochimaru snorted and walked alongside Menma, smiling meaningfully, "I'm so envious. Your Flying Thunder God Technique has already surpassed 'Eternal Girl,' hasn't it?"

Menma didn't answer, but coldly headed towards Kirigakure.

The Land of Water is a country composed of countless islands. The largest island is dominated by mountains, rivers, and forests. Combined with its unique marine environment, the entire island is often shrouded in thick fog.

The Hidden Mist Village is located deep in the western mountains of this island.

Soon, Menma and Orochimaru arrived at the outskirts of Kirigakure and stood on a high mountain, looking out over the village covered in snow.

'The mountains here do have a bit of the charm of Guilin's landscape.' Menma noticed that not only the mountains of the Water Country, but also the buildings in the Hidden Mist Village were in the cylindrical style of Hakka Tulou.

In Wuyin Village, most of the buildings are round, fortress-like structures resembling Hakka earthen buildings, some even reaching more than ten stories. They stand like giant beasts among the mountains, appearing and disappearing in the snow and mist.

At the very center of the village stands an exceptionally large red-tiled fortress, with a deep blue character for "water" printed on its blue brick wall.

"That's the Mizukage Building." Orochimaru crossed his arms and began to introduce the place: "With the tyranny of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, in recent years, all the clans with bloodline limits in the village have been driven to the outskirts. Over there is the Kaguya clan's territory, over there is the Hozuki clan's territory, and over there, the Hoshigaki clan..."

"Speaking of which, that child just now seemed to be an Ice Release user from the Snow Clan," Orochimaru suddenly narrowed his eyes. "I remember the Snow Clan was massacred a few years ago due to a rebellion."

Orochimaru was unaware of why the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was resorting to such oppressive rule, turning the once peaceful Kirigakure into this mess, even wiping out the Yuki clan.

But the facial texture is very clear.

To avenge Rin Nohara, Obito used his Sharingan to control Yagura Karatachi and implemented the "Blood Mist Policy," suppressing the village's bloodline limit clans while simultaneously intensifying the relationship between commoner ninjas and ninja clans.

The already tense relationship between civilian ninjas and ninja clans, who were under oppressive rule, was like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment.

When the time is right, we will find a reason to eliminate them.

First the Yuki clan, then the Hozuki clan and the Kaguya clan.

These three ninja clans can be considered the strongest ninja clans in Kirigakure, especially the Kaguya clan, known as battle maniacs, who are the top fighting force in Kirigakure.

Their status in Kirigakure is similar to that of the Uchiha clan in Konoha.

If Mei Terumi hadn't noticed Yagura's abnormality and used her Byakugan to examine him, dispelling the illusion, the Blood Mist Policy might have continued to wreak havoc.

This "blood mist rule" that lasted for several years eventually led to a gap in the younger generation of Kirigakure, so much so that during the Fourth Shinobi World War, the only notable figures from Kirigakure were the Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, and two Jonin, Chojuro and Ao.

Other famous Kirigakure ninjas were either rogue ninjas like Zabuza Momochi, Suigetsu Hozuki, and Kisame Hoshigaki, or powerful individuals like Ameyuri Ringo and Mangetsu Hozuki who died young and were later resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Oh, and there's also Utakata, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.

He also defected.

When Boruto begins more than 20 years later, what kind of rotten fish and shrimp are the Fourth Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist from Kirigakure?
