Chapter 229 - 229

Most nobles have relatively normal personalities.

However, because they are born superior and detached from the commoners at the bottom, they naturally grow accustomed to the feeling of having everything at their beck and call.

At certain moments, driven by their own desires, they will take unexpected actions.

Uzumaki Menma had long anticipated this scene.

Although Konan wore a mask, both her figure and her temperament were of the highest caliber.

To them, she possessed a fatal attraction.

Furthermore, the mask added an extra layer of allure.

Things that are unattainable, inedible, and invisible tend to scratch their itch even more.

Like a certain idol'sister' from his previous life.

Ahem.

If I say any more, I'll expose something.

In short, Uzumaki Menma had already considered what needed to be done.

"I feel like I should say some kind of line right now?"

Hearing Naruto's sentimental reflection on the shippuden era, Uzumaki Menma crossed his arms and asked.

"What line?"

Naruto gazed at Konan in the distance and said, "Shall we kill a Gekkō Hayate to liven things up?"

"Are you a demon? People are living perfectly fine."

After Uzumaki Menma's retort, his expression turned more serious as he said, "It should be: 'One day, I will make every seat here full!'"

A true veteran otaku, indeed.

Naruto couldn't help but smile upon hearing this line from "Love Live!"

However, Konan's wish might be somewhat grander.

In common parlance, it's world peace.

Song after song played.

After Konan began to dance, the malice in the stands reached its peak.

Naruto shook his head.

A pity you've made the wrong move; even if Uzumaki Menma doesn't act, you won't be able to pluck this beautiful paper flower.

He scanned the crowd and found the Four-TailsJinchuriki, Roshi.

He wore purple clothes, had a ponytail-like hairstyle, and a large beard.

After leaving Iwagakure, Roshi had been wandering everywhere.

Once White Zetsu discovered his trail, Uzumaki Menma used the White Lotus Sect to construct a world similar to an information cocoon.

He ensured that most of the information Roshiencountered for a period was related to Konan.

This piqued his interest, leading him to the Metropolis of the Land of Fire.

"The Four-Tails is Son Goku."

Naruto's thoughts drifted, and after a moment he asked, "I recall you were the one who had Kazumajoin the Akatsuki Organization?"

"Yes."

Uzumaki Menma nodded and said, "You know Kazuma's goal; he's an extremist who wants to eliminate the Hokage and return all power to the Daimyo. This doesn't conflict with the Akatsuki Organization's goals; they're essentially aligned. After witnessing the strength of the Akatsuki members, Kazuma was quite willing."

"No wonder he even offered up the Nine-TailedChakra inside his son, Sora."

Naruto remembered that in the original work, Kazuma, like Orochimaru, had attacked Konohaand caused quite a lot of trouble.

"Why bring that up?"

Uzumaki Menma glanced at him and said, "For a rare event like Sister Nan's concert, shouldn't you take the chance to watch a bit longer?"

"I'm not that kind of person."

Naruto said with righteous indignation, "Besides, I have Hinata. Other women are just passing clouds."

"..."

Uzumaki Menma's mouth twitched. "Stop acting like a saint in front of me!"

"Ahem, let's talk business."

Naruto waved his hand and asked, "Has Kazumamade a move on the Fire Temple?"

In the original work, Kazuma once robbed graves at the Fire Temple.

His goal was to resurrect four of the former Twelve Guardian Ninja and use them to attack Konoha.

At the time, Naruto thought it was quite ridiculous.

Konoha really didn't have any prestige left at all.

"He didn't have time," Uzumaki Menma replied. "They did have that idea, but it was shelved after joining the Akatsuki Organization."

"I have a big plan."

Naruto pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps it's time to end the boring power games in the Land of Fire."

"Oh?"

Uzumaki Menma grew interested and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Naruto didn't answer directly. He glanced at the nobles in the stands and asked, "How do you plan to deal with those people?"

Uzumaki Menma shrugged and said, "How else? Kill those who need to be killed. Anyway, the Akatsuki Organization will take the blame; it won't be traced back to the Tianming Organization."

"In that case, why not be a bit bolder?" Narutoasked calmly.

"You're the ruthless one," Uzumaki Menma raised an eyebrow. "You want to wipe them all out in one go?"

"I learned this from a certain author." Naruto's smile held a hint of coldness. "Let's have a Red Wedding."

"I see."

Uzumaki Menma knew exactly what he wanted to do as soon as he heard those words.

Besides, Merlin and En Yui had provided almost no achievements in terms of political intrigue over the past two years.

Naruto felt there was no need to wait any longer.

Since the Akatsuki Organization had already begun to move, the Tianming Organization couldn't lag behind.

As he said, the Akatsuki Organization wanted the strongest power, while the Tianming Organizationwanted the broadest power.

No, that's not right; the Tianming Organizationwants both.

Of course, Naruto also wanted to take this final opportunity to squeeze the nobles of the Land of Fire dry and see if he could net a couple of achievements.

He whispered a few words to Uzumaki Menma.

"Tsk, you really know how to play."

Uzumaki Menma couldn't help but show admiration after listening.

The original body is indeed the original body.

He turned and left.

Backstage at the concert.

Kakuzu was organizing the ticket money.

That's right, although this concert was held in the Metropolis, they still charged for tickets.

But the Daimyo's family got in for free.

Any tickets for seats near them were priced sky-high.

Even so, they were all sold out.

One day's earnings surpassed Kakuzu's previous year of running around.

Although he was forced to join the Tianming Organization, after spending time with Uzumaki Menma, he realized that money was just a number.

You can earn it however you want.

It was truly a massive win!

"How is it?"

Uzumaki Menma lifted the door curtain.

"The earnings are good; we'll probably make about two hundred million tonight."

A smile appeared on Kakuzu's face.

With his temperament, he was almost unable to maintain his composure.

This was just one night.

According to the plan, there would be about three or four concerts.

After all, drawing the snake out of its hole isn't something that succeeds in one go.

Uzumaki Menma raised an eyebrow.

Two hundred million for Sister Nan in one night; she's probably the most expensive woman in the Ninja World.

And it was a legitimate business, too.

"There will probably be some surprises later."

Uzumaki Menma pointed outside and said, "Our Sister Nan is naturally beautiful; some people are starting to get ideas."

"They're courting death!"

Kakuzu snorted coldly.

Firstly, because of Sister Nan's strength.

Secondly, because of Sister Nan's ability to make money.

Even if she were an ordinary girl, Kakuzu would protect her for sure!

Even if Amaterasu himself came, it wouldn't matter!

"It's simple, just kill them."

Uzumaki Menma made a throat-slitting gesture.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Kakuzu had no qualms.

By capturing the Tailed Beasts, the Akatsuki Organization had already offended the Five Great Villages, and by extension, the Five Great Nationsbehind them.

Killing a few nobles meant nothing to him.

"What about Roshi?"

Kakuzu thought of the Four-Tails Jinchuriki again. "When do we move against him?"

"After Sister Nan's matters are handled."

Uzumaki Menma turned and left.

He used the Flying Thunder God Technique.

He arrived at an underground base.

"Kazuma, the opportunity you've been waiting for has arrived."

Uzumaki Menma looked at the four people in front of him.

Kazuma and his three subordinates: Fuen, Fudo, and Fuuka.
