Escape From Konoha Chapter 88

"Sakumo-sensei really committed suicide because of such a thing?"

It was after the funeral, and Ayane went to Shiraishi alone and asked this sentence.

From Ayane's point of view, Sakumo couldn't commit suicide because of a boring question and answer about the importance of companions and missions.

The Sakumo he knew would never be such a man.

This is where Ayane is puzzled, and she hopes to get an answer from Shiraishi.

"What do you mean?"

"Sakumo-sensei's cause of death."

"It doesn't matter anymore."

Shiraishi looked at her and said.

"I feel worthless for Sakumo-sensei."

Ayane didn't feel very well, and let out a long sigh.

"Sakumo-sensei, he is not suitable to be a ninja, he is just one of the tragic products of this ninja era."

Ayane was a little at a loss for what Shiraishi said, and looked at him in astonishment.

"The questions you are wondering have no answers from the beginning. The task is professional ethics, and companionship... is a human choice. Either one is the right answer, or all of them are wrong. The key is how the upper layer defines this thing."

"But Sakumo-sensei gave up the mission and caused the village to lose..."

Having said that, Ayane found the problem.

Even more confused.

What is the mission that Sakumo performs?

What did the village lose?

The upper levels did not give any explanation, but allowed the villagers to freely imagine.

That is to say, from the very beginning, the question of which of the companions and the task is important, this question does not exist.

It is true that Ayane knows that Sakumo attaches great importance to his companions, but since the entire mission is based on deception, it is meaningless to choose which one.

Ayane understood what Shiraishi meant.

Both answers are correct and both are wrong.

It doesn't matter which one you choose, what matters is how the upper layer defines it.

Today can be a partner greater than the task, tomorrow can be a task greater than the partner.

In the eyes of the upper echelons, this is just a political struggle about the fourth-generation Hokage election.

There is no other meaning.

With the bond as the core, everyone is the will of a family member - the will of fire, which has become a political tool for high-level people to compete with each other for power and gain, and control the voice of the village.

No longer the faith and soul of a village.

And the villagers were unaware of it, and the hippie smiles got involved.

There is no more desperate fact than this.

Ayane shuddered a little.

She could imagine what the despair Sakumo faced at that time.

It's also just a hilarious political fight.

How to choose quests and companions has never been the problem.

Sakumo didn't commit suicide because of this problem.

He just saw a village that had completely deteriorated.

"When did it start?"

The source of this decision is definitely not because of this incident.

The seeds were planted a long time ago, but what puzzles Ayane is when Sakumo was disappointed with the village higher-ups.

Seeing the doubts on Ayane's face, Shiraishi sighed and asked:

"Ayane, don't you think by now that Sakumo-sensei doesn't know anything about that mission a few years ago?"

Ayane's face froze.

She knew that Shiraishi was talking about the mission incident when they clashed with the roots four years ago.

"Sakumo-sensei, he..."

"How could a person like him not understand that Orochimaru's abnormal dispatch. He was in the village for two months to recuperate because of the injury. What kind of injury can make people recuperate for two months? If it is really that serious, just withdraw from the battlefield. That's it, returning to the battlefield will only drag others down."

Shiroishi picked up a leaf from the ground, put it in his hand and watched it with interest, while saying this to Ayane.

"Did doubts start to arise at that time? I thought the three of us had passed the stage in acting."

Ayane smiled bitterly.

"Acting skills are no problem. If the three of us didn't return to the battlefield alive and kicked, but lacked arms and legs and tried to dress as miserably as possible, Mr. Sakumo would not be suspicious."

Shiraishi held the leaf tightly in his hand, looked at the gloomy sky, and spit out these words softly.

"The so-called protection of companions is not to choose between companions and tasks, but to protect everything that must be protected. This is the core fetter of the will of fire. It has never been a tool for political struggle, or even used to persecute and fool fellow men."

Shiraishi guessed that Sakumo must have learned something, whether it was what Sannin revealed to him, or he learned about it through other channels, this matter is no longer important.

A ninja named Hatake Sakumo came to the end of his life.

And when he decided to leave, the will of fire that he followed in his heart completely collapsed.

"I still can't imagine how Sakumo-sensei committed suicide."

"You don't need to imagine, because for those of us who don't believe in the will of fire, we can't experience that kind of despair."

"Will the higher-ups come to their senses?"

At the end, Ayane questioned.

"If I understood, there would be no such political struggle. That's why I said that Sakumo-sensei is not suitable for being a ninja. He is too pure and ideal. He is suitable for being a teacher, teaching and educating people, while Not a ninja."

This is also where Shiraishi feels sad for Sakumo.

He is such a pure ideal, a powerful ninja, and a threat to the layout of the fourth-generation Hokage.

The executives did not have the idea of ​​trying to force Sakumo to death, but this method was the most unacceptable one for Sakumo.

He knew that Ayane couldn't bear it, but it was Sakumo's own choice.

It's something no one can stop.

At the moment his faith was shattered, Konoha White Fang was already dead.

"Yeah, now I can only hope that there will be a great Konoha in the future and discover the Hokage of this vicious cycle."

Shiraishi couldn't be sure.

In the current high-level Konoha, can they really cultivate such a Hokage who is not fascinated by the desire for power and has the courage to reform all this?

Therefore, Sakumo's ambition is to die, and Shiraishi holds a pessimistic attitude.

However, Shiraishi was not very interested in this.

His path was not in Konoha from the beginning.

Whether Konoha will have the Hokage that Sakumo expected in the future has little to do with Shiraishi.

The story that belongs to Konoha White Ya has ended here, but the life that belongs to him has only just begun.

"Senior Shiroishi, companion and mission...Which is more important?"

Returning to Sakumo's tomb, only Kakashi was left standing there.

Shiraishi and Ayane walked here, and their hearts sank when they heard Kakashi's question.

"When Sakumo-sensei made his choice, he never regretted it."

"But he died..."

"Death is just a relief, it doesn't mean wrong."

"yes?"

After Kakashi murmured these words, he left in a state of despair, like a walking corpse.

"Why don't you tell him the whole story?"

Ayane looked at Shiraishi incomprehensible.

"Taking good care of Kakashi is not just the instruction of Sakumo-sensei, but it is too easy for a child with incomplete values ​​in life to take an extreme path. See the village clearly with his own eyes. everything."

When he learns to question, he can understand why Sakumo died.

Instead of tangled up in what tasks and companions this level of boring question and answer.

Even if Shiraishi said it now, it would only be counterproductive. Exposing Kakashi to the darkness of Konoha prematurely would be detrimental to his future life.

Shiraishi believes that the top management of Konoha will definitely be his best help.

He doesn't even need to make arrangements, and the top management will take the initiative to help him do it well.

In this matter, Shiraishi's confidence in these high-level executives is even more than confidence in himself.

Come to think of it, these people have never let themselves down.

Isn't this the best proof?

Moreover, the opportunity will come soon.

Sakumo's suicide should give them a headache too.

After all, such a precious and important combat power has been lost.

"When he goes out on a mission, I will send someone to follow him secretly. As for the truth of the matter, let's wait until he understands something. Maybe we don't need to explain it, he will take the initiative to understand one day."

Becoming a Chunin at the age of six, his ninja talent is beyond doubt.

What he lacks is the life experience to face the world, and a pair of eyes to see the essence of things.

Ayane also thinks this is a better solution.

When Kakashi asked the important question about the mission and the companion, Ayane already understood that he must have misunderstood something and fell into a dead end.

He didn't even realize that his father Sakumo chose to commit suicide because of it.

There are some things that make him wake up and question the village, but it will be more effective than simply preaching.

Right now, he probably won't listen to anything, and it's pointless to say more.

"Then, it's time for me to go back, and I'll ask you to Hyuga."

"Don't worry, I have my own measure over there."

Saying goodbye to Ayane, Shiraishi returned to the Uchiha clan.

At the moment when the funeral was about to end, Liuli came back first.

It can be seen that she is in a bad mood now, and even the work of the garrison has been thrown away, and she is upset.

"The funeral is over, there's no need to frown like this, right? Why, are you still sad about Sakumo-sensei?"

Liuli, who was sitting in the corridor, heard the words in her ear, and turned her head to look in the direction of the sound.

"You seem quite calm."

Baishi walked to Liuli and sat down, holding her palm lightly, watching the scenery in the courtyard with her.

"Sakumo-sensei doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for his death, whether it's us or others, it's his own choice. He never resented anyone, he loves this village more than anyone, and There are people here."

"I know. That's why I hate this kind of boring political struggle. So do the high-level people, the old guys in the clan, and those idiot villagers. The older you get, the more experience you have, the more pitiful you will become. ?"

After Liuli said such words in one breath, she let out a long breath in the corridor, showing that she was not in a calm mood.

She never imagined that Sakumo would leave this world in such a decisive manner.

"The times chose ninjas, and ninjas chose this way of life."

"Choose?"

Liuli lowered her head, and after thinking for a while, she gently rested her forehead against Shiraishi's chest.

Shiraishi could feel the heat on Liuli's body even through the clothes, and gently touched her snow-white cheeks with his palms.

Immediately afterwards, he put his hand on Liu Li's black hair and stroked it carefully and gently.

Her hair is of good quality, dense and jet-black, and very straight, and is carefully distanced every day.

After all, it's a girl.

"I'm not a child."

Liuli felt the movement in her hair, frowned, and there was dissatisfaction in her voice.

She didn't sweep away Shiraishi's hand that was playing with her hair.

The mouth says no and dissatisfaction~www.mtlnovel.com~ but in fact the body is already very honest.

"Is there still something to do in the garrison today?"

"I took leave in the morning, and there is nothing important to go there anyway."

He lifted his forehead from Shiraishi's chest and began to rest on his thigh, lying on the floor of the corridor without any defense, closing his eyes and preparing for a lunch break.

Shiraishi looked at Liuli's unsuspecting state at the moment. Although it was good to be able to see her sleeping face up close, she still felt that something was wrong.

Thinking about it carefully, isn't there something missing on the other thigh?

At this time, the face of another girl appeared in my mind.

"...I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little unhappy in my heart? Do you know why this is?"

"This is your illusion. It must be that you are too tired today. I will call you after dinner."
