The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan

In the angle above the strong pressure.

Menma didn't mean to be fancy at all.

The Nine-Tails Chakra burst out directly.

Of course, it was just a layer of red chakra coat on the coat, and even the tail didn't show up, but it was this terrifying chakra breath.

"!?"

The moment it hit him.

Sasuke's breathing suddenly stagnated, and his eyes widened, leaving no room for Sasuke to react.

"Swoosh!"

Menma took a step ahead and flashed directly to Sasuke's side angle.

"Bang!"

The fist hit Sasuke's abdomen heavily.

"Wow?"

Even if he controlled the strength a little, the power transmitted still made Sasuke's face change.

The body curled up subconsciously.

Menma didn't care.

"Menma!?"

In the scream of Sakura on the side.

Menma grabbed Sasuke's collar and threw him down fiercely.

"Bang!"

It landed heavily.

Accompanied by the dull sound of impact.

Under the second injury.

The pain spread all over his body, as if his body was about to fall apart. Sasuke couldn't help but groan in pain.

"Huh?!"

At that moment, Sasuke was completely suppressed by force.

The next second.

Menma came up and pressed down on Sasuke from above, leaning forward, and his pair of scarlet fox eyes looked directly into Sasuke's eyes.

"How is it? Are you calm, Sasuke? If it's not enough, I can help you again!"

Close-range pressure.

This trembling feeling seemed to penetrate directly into the soul.

Sasuke's pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.

This feeling of chilling the heart, as if the body was completely frozen.

At this moment, it was as if a basin of cold water was poured on Sasuke's heart in an instant, and the extremely restless heart before also cooled down at this moment.

The rapid breathing also gradually calmed down.

The cursed seal pattern slowly retreated, and the breath became stable visibly.

The Sharingan in the pupil also closed.

The pupil returned to black and white.

Menma's expression relaxed.

He loosened his right hand and stood up again.

Sasuke also stood up at the same time, returning to his previous expressionless posture, but at this moment, whether it was Naruto or Sakura, they were really relieved, because the current Sasuke was the Sasuke they were familiar with.

The two also approached quickly.

"Sasuke, it's right to desire power. Ninjas themselves must continue to become stronger and continue to climb up, but if they are controlled by power, it proves that your capacity is only this."

Menma looked at Sasuke calmly, and said those words lightly.

It also made Sasuke's face change, and after taking a deep breath, he nodded silently.

Although he didn't say anything, with Sasuke's personality, such an action was infinitely close to admitting his mistake.

"Sasuke-kun, are you okay now?"

Sakura came closer, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off Sasuke's forehead, saying with a touch of worry and heartache.

Sasuke frowned subconsciously, but he rarely avoided her. He just shook his head with a cold face and said, "I'm fine."

This is clearly the familiar Sasuke.

It also made Sakura's heart completely relaxed.

"It's getting late today, let's rest first. This is only the first day, there is no need to be too anxious. Your scrolls have not been taken away. After we are fully recovered, we will go to take the scrolls of other teams."

Menma looked at the three people and said.

"Yeah."

"Oh, no problem."

Sakura and Naruto also responded quickly.

Sasuke on the left also nodded coldly.

After a simple dinner, the group went to bed and rest.

And at the same time.

In the center of the Death Forest, there is the only central tower.

"Are you feeling okay, Red Bean?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who arrived as soon as he received the message, looked at the pale Red Bean and asked with a solemn look.

"Yes, Lord Hokage, thank you for your concern. I am fine, and the curse seal has been suppressed again."

No longer lively and cheerful as before.

Now Red Bean is solemn and replied in a very weak tone.

Just like in the original plot, when Red Bean entered the Death Forest to search for the traces of her former mentor, Orochimaru also appeared as she wished, without any real action.

It was the stimulation of words alone, and the power of the curse seal, which made Red Bean, a special senior ninja, completely lose the ability to resist.

It must be said that Red Bean still has a certain status in Orochimaru's heart. Otherwise, with Orochimaru's power, how could she meet Orochimaru if she didn't want to be discovered by Red Bean?

In the end, she still didn't do anything ruthless, which is the most direct proof.

After all, to be honest, Red Bean is the only disciple of Orochimaru.

"That's good. You should have a good rest next. The assessment will be handled by other examiners for the time being."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded gently and said.

"No, I'm completely fine, Hokage-sama. As for Orochimaru..."

"Red Bean, what you need now is a good rest. You don't need to worry about the rest. I will arrange everything. Don't worry."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gently waved his hand, interrupted Red Bean's words, and said in a deep voice.

"Uh? Yes, I understand, Hokage-sama. Then, I'll be rude first."

Red Bean was stunned. She didn't quite understand what her Hokage meant. Isn't it a very dangerous thing for Orochimaru to return to Konoha? But only a second later, Red Bean bowed her head and replied.

This is the order of the Hokage after all.

You need to execute it even if you don't understand it.

"Yeah."

After bowing to Sarutobi Hiruzen at the end, Red Bean turned around and left the office.

'Orochimaru? You actually chose to come back at this time. It seems that this should be the last meeting between our master and apprentice. This time, I will definitely not be the same as last time. ’

Sarutobi Hiruzen put his hands behind his back and looked at the completely dark night view outside the window. His slightly turbid pupils also showed an extremely sharp color.

Under the calm surface, there is a dark tide that is constantly rolling up.

In this largest ninja village in the ninja world.

All forces have begun to stir.

There was no talk all night.

This slowly passing time,

until the dawn of the next day.

The light and shadow of dawn just shone on the earth.

Menma and others also woke up one after another. After a night's rest, Naruto relied on part of his Uzumaki bloodline and basically recovered. Only the second pillar was still affected by the curse seal and looked more tired.

But it would not affect normal actions and combat.
