Chapter 786
You must find your own path and become a new strong person. Everything is going on in the expectation of others.
Until one day, rumors suddenly spread in the village that Hatake Sakumo abandoned his mission, causing heavy losses to Konoha.
Although I don’t know why the ninja’s intelligence mission spread so much, the atmosphere of life has changed.
Konoha Village is no longer the Konoha Village it was before, and malice is coming like a tide. Even passers-by were pointing vaguely.
Those who praised me in the past were moving away from me, and in the end, only two or three of my friends still didn't look at me with disgust.
My father seemed to become unusually silent, especially when he saw the companions he had rescued speaking harshly to him.
In the end, death bloomed in the Hatake mansion, and all the malice disappeared like the ebbing tide.
What happened to this world?
It turns out that putting mission first is the ninja's creed. With this awareness, he kept moving forward in the war, leaving behind countless people who were holding him back.
The team that was finally re-formed was his original teammates.
How could an idiot like Obito understand what a ninja was? He was still more suitable to help an old lady cross the road in Konoha Village.
But my friend spent his life telling him that those who break the rules are trash, and those who don't cherish their companions are worse than trash.
The hero of the Sharingan... is amazing, Obito is a true genius.
It's just that the war is cruel, and the teacher's flying thunder god can't save his brother.
Then Lin, who had vowed to protect her with her life, voluntarily fell to Raikiri, and Kakashi, who had lost the meaning of life, became decadent again.
genius? No, it's trash.
The war was over and his best friends were gone.
So is it more correct for a ninja to be a tool without emotions, or to become a person with emotions like Obito?
No one gave him an answer. Everyone was just celebrating his escape from death, rejoicing that the war was over, and cheering for the new Hokage to take over.
Kakashi received an A mission when he was sinking into darkness. Protecting a traveling author returns to the Land of Rain.
A very common task, but also very unusual.
Gathering intelligence is an instinct for ninjas. When Kakashi saw Adam for the first time, he felt that this man had a deathly aura that was only found in the cemetery, but from his eyes, he could see the vigorous vitality like fire. Burning.
Everything disappeared in the blink of an eye, and he was still the same ordinary person.
Labels like author, scholar, and teacher are naturally attached to me.
Judging from the appearance, he is also a helpless person, not even a bit shrewd in walking in the ninja world.
"lets go."
"good."
Adam in Konoha Village sat obediently on the bullock cart, looking at the flow of people on both sides as if he was thinking about something with his eyes blank.
After leaving the gate of Konoha, the other party stretched out his waist directly in the car. His movements were very natural and comfortable.
It feels like you have entered your own world, and there is an inexplicable sense of relaxation and beauty like that of a legendary dragon taking flight.
The smell of danger was fleeting, like an illusion.
Kakashi instinctively felt that there might be a story on the road ahead, so he prepared for battle.
But my preparations were in vain, there was no violent storm, no flash of sword, no flash of sword.
The other party took out a book from his luggage and started reading.
The author named Adam has been reading a book on the bullock cart, and he is still reading The Will of Fire compiled by the Sandaime Hokage.
Even in Konoha, not many people would read this book, but every ninja would have a copy at home, even their own homes.
Kakashi remembers that the sales of this book have been at the lowest point in bookstores in recent years, and it is said that it has recently been replaced by Roots of Ninjaden.
"Kakashi, can I call you that? Do you Konoha ninjas like the Will of Fire?"
Silent, he has no habit of talking to the objects of his protection during missions.
"I don't like it. It's normal if I don't like it."
What did this guy say that could make Konoha ninjas say they didn't like the Will of Fire? Things that both the Sandaime and the Yondaime liked were not something that a ninja like me could question.
Kakashi, who was hesitant to speak, still didn't speak, but his mentality was a little unnatural.
It's obvious that today's young people still don't have the mentality of ignoring interference like they did in the future, or in other words, Metkai's death entanglement has not yet begun.
"The Meaning of Fire is a very great work. It's a pity that you people in Konoha don't seem to understand it very well and just regard it as a boring reading. It's a pity that Sarutobi Hiruzen-sama has worked so hard~~~."
Didn't we understand? Young people think that even during the war, Ninja School students have to learn this thing. If we don't understand, do you understand?
"It is said that Jiraiya-sama's new book Genxunoden is also inspired by the Will of Fire."
No wonder it couldn't be sold, Kakashi complained silently in his heart.
For something like the Will of Fire, which at first glance seemed to be full of positive energy, the young man simply couldn't accept it in his heart.
The person who is trapped in self-destruction has entered a path of no return, and Noah is the one who comes to help him break through this path.
"But overall I am a bit disappointed when I come to Konoha this time. It seems that the people here have not been enlightened under the influence of such will."
"People... just have to follow the rules."
This was the first sentence Kakashi said, and it was also a counterattack against this ignorant author.
They talked a lot along the way, but didn't he still know what Konoha was like?
During that time, wherever Sakumo took Kakashi out, he would be greeted with strange looks and pointing fingers.
Even the teachers in the Ninja School were showing some expressions they had never seen before, intentionally or unintentionally.
The fantasy thing like the Will of Fire has never appeared at all. Even the rescued ninja stood up and reprimanded his father. This does not just mean that this world only has cold operating rules and there is no transcendent fire.
Therefore, his life creed is to complete the mission of a ninja, as long as he performs the mission.
Noah smiled slightly, knowing that Kakashi was resistant to the so-called will of fire.
Chapter 35 Noah is so stupid
Otherwise, Danzo wouldn't have used this young man to assassinate the Sandaime in the later period. That old guy really had a great eye for troublemaking.
At this moment, even though Kakashi's body was faithfully performing his mission, his heart was already torn apart by the deaths of people close to him one after another.
It's really a good time to start.
"Kakashi, although I am not a ninja so it is not appropriate to say this, but what I want to say is that if you really understand the will of fire, you can definitely avoid many disasters."
"You, a foreigner, have only read this book for a few days and you feel you understand something!"
Inexplicable anger rose in his heart, and Kakashi couldn't accept the understatement of people outside who said things that seemed to be correct.
"Sorry, did I say something that hurt you?"
Silent, Kakashi felt that he was a little out of character, and he actually vented his emotions by scolding an ordinary person.
This is because his own training is not enough. As a tool, ninjas cannot use emotions to affect the mission.
There was no response to the mission target's apology, but has peace really returned?
"I once discussed the will of fire with Mr. Jiraiya in writing, and he still very much recognized my opinions."
Kakashi was silent, what was there to talk about that was all empty talk.
"Jiraiya and I said that the key to the will of fire is to become a ball of light, so that you can protect those who want to live in the light."
"Jiraiya said, what if the surroundings were completely dark and filled with monsters and monsters?"
"I said that fire can bring equal destruction to these things. Burn a decayed place and give civilization a new lease of life."
"If you can do this, even the Third Hokage will be moved."
…
Kakashi felt that there was something wrong with this conversation. Master Jiraiya seemed not to be such a serious person, but the fact that he was able to write the Genshin Shinobi made the reputation of the Sage a little better.
The boy was a little shy about this topic because he couldn't think about it.
The Will of Fire suddenly became a being that burned others, which was a little different from the way he learned to burn himself when he was in school.
"Kakashi, since I'm bored on the road, why don't I tell you a story."
"After listening, you may understand what fire is."
Kakashi was noncommittal, he was long past the age of listening to stories. The cruelty of the ninja world made everyone experience the baptism early.
"It is said that there is such a world. Most of the world is filled with sea water, and people live on various islands."
"There are also magical fruits in this world. As long as you eat one, you will have magical powers, but you will also get the curse of the sea."
"The ruler of this sea is the world government, they..., the navy..."
"And the other force is the pirates. They..."
It's really a grand world view. No matter how mature or depraved Kakashi is, he is still a teenager, and he will always be curious about the new world.
This opening setting alone has completely surpassed all the storybooks I read and listened to when I was a child, and is more interesting than any ninja story.
Pirates are a common problem in the Kingdom of Water. Has this author ever been to the Land of Water?
As for the unified world government, it must be something like the Land of Fire, which protects the rules and operations of the sea. The navy is a military institution like the Leaf Village.
However, the relationship between daimyo and Konoha in the real world is more equal.
"Do you want my treasure? If you want it, go to the sea and find it. I'll put it all there."
"The era of great pirates has arrived, and countless pirates have appeared on the sea. Some of them chase their dreams, some indulge their desires, and people with various purposes rush to the sea."
"Kakashi-kun, what do you think will happen if so many pirates appear?"
…
"It will bring killing and destruction. Bandits are mortals who will not restrain their desires. Mastering power beyond the world will only make their harm even greater."
Kakashi did not remain silent. He thought of the actions of those Nami ninjas who occasionally mastered chakra that he had seen during his daily mission to suppress bandits, and he basically understood that most pirates looked the same.
"Yes, because the pirates burned, killed and plundered the sea, it fell into turmoil. At the same time, the protagonist of this book appeared, named Noah."
"Although I'm embarrassed, the name Noah is a name I like very much, so I used it here."
…
"The fire burned away the all-knowing tree on O'Hara, and Noah and his sister escaped from the island."
Should I say it or not, this first chapter really went beyond Kakashi's thoughts.
When he first heard about the navy and pirates, he felt that the protagonist must be one of the two forces.
The result is neither. The slaves start the game and are then surrounded and killed by the navy representing justice. The reason is to explore the truth of history.
Kakashi said it was understandable as to why O'Hara was destroyed. This is the difference in the world.
Even if you know some information, you will be close to death. This is not uncommon in the world of ninjas, so there are cursed seal ninjutsu such as the tongue root seal.
From this, it can be inferred that the role played by the world government in history must be problematic, but the dark side of every country is so dirty.
The navy...the killing of civilians is even more common in the ninja world. Everyone knows that this is wrong, but it can only depend on personal consciousness. Konoha's ninjas probably wouldn't do such a thing.
"That Noah is really stupid."
? !
Noah looked confused. The point of this story is that the protagonist is stupid?
"Where does this come from?"
"It's really shameless to talk nonsense in the face of the navy's highest combat power. Anyone who dares to threaten the stability of Konoha Village will be ruthlessly obliterated as long as they dare to speak out."
…
It’s amazing what you said makes so much sense, and didn’t you want to be mute before?
"And anyone who can say that the world is wrong is either a lunatic or a devil. No matter how you look at it, he shouldn't be the protagonist."
"As for understanding what fire is? Are you saying that if you don't follow the rules of the world, you will be thrown into the fire and burned to death?"
…
