[Naruto] Namikaze Ninjaden

"Teacher, what's the matter?"

The shining blue eyes were like the clear sky, without a trace of impurities. They looked at Mr. Seimoto in front of him calmly, with a slightly shy smile on his face.

"Well..." Seimoto Satoru opened his mouth, but still didn't know what to say. He was worried about Yiren's mental state before following up to take a look, but to talk about the Yondaime's sacrifice would undoubtedly touch the child. The wound in the heart.

Seimoto Satoru coughed and said after careful consideration: "How have you been lately? Do you have any plans? If you encounter something that cannot be solved, you can come to the teacher."

"I'm doing fine. Teacher, you don't have to worry about me. As for your plans..." Yi Ren's clear eyes were tainted with a bit of gloom, and he lowered his head slightly and remained silent.

The two of them walked slowly in the busy commercial street, with pedestrians and business travelers coming and going, and the sounds of vendors soliciting business. The atmosphere between them was a bit stiff in the noisy surroundings. Seimoto Satoru discovered the psychological impact this genius student had given him. The pressure is not as high as usual, and he is not like a child at all. The calmness that is always inconsistent with his age worries him the most.

As they walked, the atmosphere became more and more awkward. Seimoto Satoru adjusted his glasses, broke the silence, and said in a hurry: "Well...don't you have any plans? Ideals, goals, etc., such as becoming a powerful ninja... "

"Teacher, I don't have any ideals."

Yiren suddenly interrupted, his eyes glowing sharply in the shadows, and he was strangely calm: "I don't know why I want to become a ninja. After reading the history of the ninja world, I just feel that being a ninja is very miserable. What happened to me This kind of thing is too common for ninjas. My parents were also war orphans since they were young, and the same goes for the people around me. They have no relatives, and all their companions died tragically in the war. The same is true for me now, so I am not too surprised..."

"I once heard my father say that maybe as long as there is a ninja system in this world, there will be no real peace. After a short period of calm, war will still sweep across again, like a huge killing machine, no one will Being able to survive, apart from wars, missions, and until death, I don’t understand what the meaning of ninja is?”

"They say they are protecting the village and the country, but civilians are even more miserable than ninjas because they are too weak during wars. Only a few decades after the establishment of the ninja village, three ninja wars have occurred. Is there really peace at all?"

Seimoto Satoru's pupils shrank, and he stared blankly at Yiren's expressionless face. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out, and his eyes gradually darkened. Could these words really be said by a six-year-old child?

He couldn't give an answer. Even if the Hokage came in person, he couldn't give a perfect answer to this child's question.

Since the first Hokage established the ninja village, the entire ninja world has gradually stabilized, forming the current system of one village and one country. The first generation captured the nine chakra tailed beasts in the world, sealed them with the help of the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan, and distributed the tailed beasts to the national power. The Nine-Tails of Konoha is one of the five most powerful ninja villages in the great powers. They hope to achieve a deterrent balance through the terrifying power of the tailed beasts, so that wars will no longer occur easily, and the ninja world can maintain long-term peace.

No one has ever doubted the actions of the First Hokage. He ended the ninja melee during the Warring States Period and opened a new era, allowing the ninjas who were hired by the great names of various countries and spent their lives to kill, to have a stable and prosperous place to live. It did bring temporary stability.

The country supports the Ninja Village, and the Ninja Village is the military force of the country, responsible for defending the land and political power, and conducting wars of interest to obtain resources.

The ninja clan has gathered into a village, with a tighter organization, mature tactics, and a constant supply of personnel. Various special secret techniques and blood inheritance abilities cooperate with each other. The combat power is more than a hundred times stronger than that of a single ninja clan. The ninja army can complete A large-scale military operation that the ninja clan had never been able to do before.

Once a war breaks out, all the ninja villages will be mobilized. The destruction and death caused by the war will be more horrific than during the Warring States Period. As long as a war fails, a prosperous country can quickly turn into a place where refugees flee and civilians cannot afford to eat. poor country.

The time for peace is too short. The current Sandaime Hokage has lived from the time when the Ninja Village was established to the present. Although he is older, he is still energetic. It seems that he can still lead Konoha for more than ten years. This has happened three times in the Ninja world. World war.

Seimoto Satoru considered himself to be one of the most knowledgeable among the Ninja teachers, but he was unable to deal with such a fundamental question. Even the Hokage couldn't find the answer. What could a small Chuunin teacher like him say?

If it were another teacher, he might have said some words of encouragement to make him believe that the future would get better, but Seimoto Satoru couldn't use ambiguous words to deceive the child in front of him. Even if he deceived this genius temporarily, in the future, wait for him What should I do when I grow up? Lie to him again? How could this be deceived?

Looking at Yiren's indifferent and calm eyes, which seemed to have no hope in the first place, Cheng Moto pursed his lips nervously, his heart couldn't help but feel heavy, and finally spoke.

"To be honest, the teacher can't answer you. I'm afraid no one in the world can answer your question."

Yi Ren nodded, not thinking that he heard anything interesting. His eyes wandered around the shops on both sides, and he was already thinking about where to have lunch.

"You are the son of the Yondaime-sama. You should know that the Yondaime's master, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, Jiraiya-sama, except during the war, he has been traveling around various countries in the ninja world. I heard that he is looking for the true master of ninjas. A way to achieve world peace and find the son of destiny in the prophecy.”

Seimoto Satoru looked at the streets where pedestrians were coming and going, where he could see the Hokage's office building representing the center of Konoha's power in the distance: "According to the prophecy received by Lord Jiraiya, the child of destiny can lead the ninja world to true peace. "

"However, I don't really believe in so-called prophecies."

The tone of his voice was suddenly low. Yiren couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He recovered his distracted thoughts and looked at him in surprise. The legendary Sannin were all big figures who intimidated the ninja world. Ordinary ninjas highly respected them. Teacher Seimoto, a chuunin, actually He was not so convinced by what Jiraiya-sama, one of the three ninjas, said.

"Everyone in this world lives very hard and works hard for life, especially ninjas. Whether it is to resist foreign enemies or for profit, they all want to live better. Generations of ancestors are pursuing true Peace, if we can only wait for the son of destiny to change, who are we people?"

"If this world makes you feel hopeless and resentment is of no use, why should you abandon the whole world? You can't do it as long as you live."

Seimoto Satoru gently put his hand on Yiren's shoulder, squatted down and looked at him levelly: "Then there is only one way to go, to make it better. Although I don't know how to do it, but if it really To usher in an era without war, it will be worth every effort."

"Change? Even the First Hokage, who is called the God of Ninja, can't do it..." Yi Ren didn't finish his words. He suddenly remembered that the First Hokage did change the world and implemented the new system to the entire ninja world. , but this system did not bring peace.

What went wrong? Was the purpose of the first generation not strong enough, or was the system simply wrong, or was the decision to distribute tailed beasts and subsequent policies wrong? There are even more questions that I can’t figure out.

"I see, teacher, thank you."

There was a vague feeling in his heart that seemed to touch something, but he couldn't put it into words. Yiren bowed respectfully to Teacher Seimoto: "Thank you very much."

Recalling the war he had gone through, Seimoto Satoru, who was a little depressed, suddenly felt embarrassed when he heard the student's solemn thanks, and his hand to hold his glasses was unsteady.

"Ahem!" After coughing twice, Seimoto Satoru pushed up his glasses with one finger, and the reflection on the lenses flashed, "It is a teacher's duty to care about students and answer students' questions. You are my best student, absolutely... …No mistakes are allowed!”

"Eh?"

"Teacher is not as powerful as Yondaime-sama, but he will protect you."

"Well..." Yiren lowered his head, his blond hair covering his expressionless face, his blue eyes calm and calm, looking at the shadows under his feet, Cheng Moto was annoyed that he mentioned someone he shouldn't have mentioned, and was about to say What? I saw him smiling again, "It's noon, do you want to go have dinner together? Teacher."

"Okay, teacher, treat me!" Seimoto Satoru breathed a sigh of relief.

Not far ahead is Konoha's famous Ichiraku Ramen. Yi Ren was walking towards here when he spoke just now. I don't know how long this restaurant has been open. Anyway, it has been there for as long as I can remember. It has been open for at least ten years. Here The boss is very familiar with him.

Seeing regular customers coming, Uncle Shou Dao skillfully fished out the noodles and greeted him warmly. He smiled like a little fox and raised two fingers: "Uncle, two bowls first, and the next ones are ready!" Uncle Shou Dao smiled happily. After agreeing, he turned around and asked Teacher Chengben, smiling shyly: "Um...teacher, can I eat as much as I want?"

"Of course!" Seimoto Satoru waved generously and slapped his wallet on the counter, "Please take care of yourself!"

"Thank you, teacher." Yiren kept a slightly shy smile. Not long after, the first bowl of ramen was served, and the steaming heat hit his face. He took the chopsticks, revealing that he was becoming more and more free after no one violently disciplined him. Eat phase.

After eating enough, he had the strength to practice in the afternoon. Yiren slurped the noodles and stared at the menu hanging on the wall, thinking about what flavor to order next.

Seimoto Satoru pressed his trembling fingers against his eye frames, and saw his usually cute and well-behaved student holding up a bowl of soup and drinking soup with an imageless "Zi Liu, Zhi Liu". There was a pile of empty bowls half a person high in front of him. The food money for the week is gone right now!

Unlike ordinary chuunin who can go out to do different tasks, the ninja school teacher does not do tasks and only has a fixed salary every month. Fortunately, he eats cheap ramen, otherwise he would have to be deducted by his boss when paying the bill. ! Seimoto Satoru felt a sense of bitterness in his heart. The food expenses for a whole week...
