16 years old, fourth generation Mizukage

Chapter 240 The will will also change

"So, that's why you came to me with Uchiha Itachi's examination pass book and Hatake Kakashi to ask about course-related matters?"

Seeing Hatake Kakashi and Jiraiya who came uninvited, they are putting the classified document scrolls on the bookshelf in the independent library specially set up for the course of ninja history restoration and research Hui Yelian turned his face sideways, and asked with a speechless face.

"Well, don't be too serious about this kind of thing, Mizukage-sama..."

Zilai also said haha ​​skillfully, and said with an awkward smile:

"That child is just a six-year-old kid after all. Even if his family agrees to let him come to Kirigakure to participate in the exchange program due to various reasons and concerns, I, the leader of the Konoha exchange group, will always agree Or do you have to check for him before he makes a choice?"

"The truth?" Hui Yelian didn't care about Jiraiya's trickery, but looked at him calmly and asked.

"The Uchiha clan is Konoha's Uchiha clan, not Kirigakure's Uchiha clan... at least for now."

Jiraiya also put away his joking tone, and gave an answer with a straight face.

"It seems that you still quite approve of the ninja village system created by Senjujuma... It has been only a few decades since it was officially established, but it has already made you ignore or even forget that the major ninja clans in dozens of Years ago, they were still fighting independently, and they were independent."

Kaguya Rei was not too surprised when Jiraiya took the position of Ninja Village to answer. He just took a volume written by the seniors of the ghost lamp clan from the bookshelf at hand, and recorded When Kirigakure was first established, the scrolls of documents about some things when he was first established, he said unhurriedly while flipping through.

"The times are developing, and we ninjas must learn to accept new things... If you always hold on to the hatred and concepts of the past and refuse to let go, it is a very dangerous thing."

Hearing Zilai also said such words, Hui Yeren first sneered disdainfully, then squinted his eyes, and asked maliciously:
"Oh? It sounds like Jiraiya seems to think that Konoha has done a good job in this regard?"

"Should... at least be above the passing grade, right?" Zilai also touched his nose, and gave his own score as low as possible.

"Passing score? Then your grading standards are really lax, Zilaiya."

Kaguya Rei looked at Jiraiya with some pity, and sighed:
"If you Konohas are really good at letting go of hatred and stereotypes, then Uchiha Madara, who has been persuaded by Senjujuma, should become a member of Konoha Hokage. , instead of being forced to leave the family and leave the village alone.

Similarly, in the core advisory team of the three generations of Hokage, there should also be elites from the Uchiha clan, instead of Shimura Danzo, Zhuanju Koharu and Mitomon Yan who only know how to suppress and target the Uchiha clan The guy gives total control. "

"Even the second-generation Hokage Senju Togama, who has done a relatively better job in this area, still has the core combat power that Uchiha Madara, which can be influenced and changed by Senjujuma, is forced into The serious mistake of traitorous ninja who hates Konoha..."

Having said that, Kaguya Rei paused for a moment, then looked at Jiraiya whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and Hatake Kakashi who was standing beside him with a helpless smile, and asked with a slightly raised tone:

"Now, do you still think that Konoha can get a passing grade in letting go of old hatred and ideas, Jiraiya?"

"Sure enough, I was right not to let Uchiha Itachi come to look for you..." Zilai also patted his cheek helplessly, so that his face, which had been slapped several times by Void, could recover from the numbness, " If you let that kid who hasn't even formed his own ideas stay with you for a long time to be influenced by you, he will definitely degenerate faster than that Uchiha Shisui."

"Lies don't hurt people, the truth is the sharp knife."

Kaguya smiled playfully, narrowed her eyes and said:

"If Uchiha Itachi saw the truth that was artificially covered up, and he could develop anger and hatred towards Konoha, it only shows that Konoha's own practice has a big enough problem... ...Do you still remember what I told you the first day you came to Kirigakure?"

"I've thought about what you said seriously." Jiraiya shook his head, and said firmly: "Konoha and Kirigakure, although they haven't come out from the flames of war during the Warring States period, they have inherited a lot. There are less misconceptions and traditions that have been passed down from that era, but... there is still a difference between the two after all."

"If there is a difference, how did Shimura Danzo and his 'roots' grow stronger?"

Kaguya Rei blew a frivolous whistle, then lightly teased:
"Don't forget, the black hand behind Kirigakure's transformation into Blood Mist is Uchiha Madara, a lingering ghost from the Warring States Period, and the 'root' rooted in the deepest darkness of your Konoha is the Second Hokage. His disciple, Shimura Danzo, who inherited his own will of fire, founded and developed it himself..."

"Think about it, to be able to breed Shimura Danzo and 'root' from the inside, something that doesn't treat your fellow villagers as human beings, is there really any merit in your so-called will of fire? It has long been an excuse and tool used by your Konoha executives to eliminate dissidents and fight for power."

Jiraiya has never felt such a strong hatred for Shimura Danzo and the existence of "ne" as he does now.

He is not a hypocrite who can turn a blind eye to the truth that has been put in front of his eyes. When Shimura Danzo, who can be said to have carried all the darkness of the ninja world, was put on the table, it was used as proof of Konoha's fire. No matter how many reasons he had in his mind to justify Sarutobi Hiruzen and Konoha, he could only swallow them all unwillingly, and finally turned them into a cry Long sigh.

But what Jiraiya also didn't expect was that Kakashi Hatake, who he thought would show some dissatisfaction and even anger because of this, maintained a high degree of consistency with him at this time, even more so calm , or indifference, now that he had to take continuous deep breaths to ease his breathing and emotions, but he never gave birth to any anger and dissatisfaction from the beginning——

It seems that what Jiraiya and Kaguya Rei are talking about is not his hometown and Konoha, which he once wanted to burn everything for, but the villages that have nothing to do with him, such as Sand Hidden and Rock Hidden. same thing.

Kaguya Rei also noticed the abnormality of Hatake Kakashi. He cast his eyes on the No. [-] Konoha technician whose life trajectory had been greatly changed by him with great interest, and asked with some guidance:

"Is there anything you want to say, Hatake Kakashi?"

"Is there something you want to say?" Hatake Kakashi tilted his head, and for some reason, a somewhat empty expression slowly appeared on his tired and immature face, "Mizukage-sama said that Konoha's fire There is nothing redeeming about the will of the people, and it has become a tool used by high-level people to eliminate dissidents and fight for power... Then, do you think it has no merit from the beginning, or has it become worthless after it has deteriorated? where?"

"Well, that's a good question."

Kaguya Rei showed a somewhat surprised expression, he looked up and down the listless, seemingly lifeless Hatake Kakashi, and replied thoughtfully:
"The will of fire after it has deteriorated is indeed worthless, but we may be able to find out when it began to deteriorate."

"How to investigate, Mizukage-sama?" Kakashi Hatake's hollow tone was filled with curiosity.

"Just ask the parties who have experienced that era."

Hui Ye Lian put away the scroll in her hand, and replied with a light smile.
