People In Senju: Team Up With Uchiha To Subvert Konoha!

Chapter 20 Hope To Call You Comrade! 【Ask For Flowers】

"You understand me!?"

Orochimaru smiled, and became interested in the little man in front of him, who was only six years old, other than research experiments.

Today, actually, he didn't come to find Tsunade at all.

In private observation, he has his eye on Chiba.

Only this time when Tsunade went out, Orochimaru found an opportunity to take a closer look at this [experimental material] that made his heart flutter!

But--

What Orochimaru didn't know was that, possibly, it wasn't he who was after Chiba, but Chiba, who was after him!

And today, it wasn't Orochimaru who came to observe Chiba up close, Chiba was here waiting for Orochimaru's arrival.

"Mr. Chiba, I'm curious, how do you understand me?"

"Do you want to hear it?"

Orochimaru nodded.

He didn't mind hearing Chiba's understanding.

Putting down the scroll in his hand, Chiba spoke calmly.

"Mr. Snake, you were born in the chaos of war, you are extremely talented, and you were accepted as an apprentice by Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

"At that time, you were high-spirited, positive, optimistic, and full of longing for the future!"

"Once upon a time, you were full of desire and awe for that position!"

"Grow up under the influence of [Will of Fire] since childhood, that is the seed of faith buried in your heart!"

"However, good times don't last long. War is the main theme of this world, and war will kill people!"

"You lose your parents, and you start thinking, what's the point of war!"

"Maybe in order to end the war, you use your talent to keep getting stronger, want to climb up, gain recognition, and bring peace!"

"However, the more you climb up, the more and more deaths you will see!"

"Your relatives, your comrades-in-arms, and your companions all fell to the ground one after another!"

"Finally, you're numb..."

"Yet, you climbed high enough to touch that position of longing and awe!"

"However, the person in that position personally shot you down from a height..."

"Decades of inner beliefs collapsed in one day! Suddenly, you can't find the meaning of living!"

"You start thinking, what is the meaning of life!"

"You thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a nondescript answer!"

"Alive!"

"Life, only alive, has meaning!"

"And if you want to live, you can only live forever!"

For a split second, Chiba looked at Orochimaru with calm eyes.

That look had a complexity Orochimaru had never seen before.

"Mr. Snake! I... feel very sad!"

"Not only you, but also countless people who have encountered the same situation as you in the war!"

"In this dark world, to what extent must people be forced to stop the endless war and malice?"

In just a few words, Orochimaru's troubled life is vividly described.

At this moment, Orochimaru looked at Chiba, less joking than before, and more serious.

Because, he found out.

This guy doesn't seem to be joking.

"Very sharp review!"

"But does that count as understanding me? Even I don't understand myself!"

Orochimaru licked his lips.

The expression is very indifferent, very, the shock in the heart is simply earth-shaking.

He felt that the six-year-old child in front of him had seen through him, into the deepest part of his heart.

It's scary.

Let Orochimaru have an inexplicable fear!

It's not that Orochimaru is afraid of Chiba, but something else.

"To understand a person, don't look at what he says, but look at what he does!"

"If a hypocrite has been hypocritical all his life, can you call him a hypocrite?"

"[Understanding] is very idealistic, but what you do is not changed by people's will, it is materialistic!"

"So, Mr. Snake, let me ask you a question..."

"The genius is on the left, the madman is on the right!"

"Which kind of... do you belong to?"

Hearing this, Orochimaru smiled and spoke ironically.

"Are you playing tricks on me?"

"Isn't self-evaluation something also [idealism]?"

Hearing this, Chiba smiled happily.

"Sure enough, things like [understanding] are mutual!"

Orochimaru took a look at Chiba, he thought it was very interesting for Chiba to talk like this.

"Then Chiba-kun, where is the meaning of your life?"

"change the world!"

Chiba uttered an answer that Orochimaru couldn't have imagined.

"ha?"

For a moment, Orochimaru thought he heard it wrong.

Earlier, Chiba discussed Orochimaru's life in a remark, proving a point.

People can't change the world!

Orochimaru failed to do so, to say the least.

As a result, Chiba turned around and said he was going to do it.

At this moment, Orochimaru felt that Chiba was absurd.

Sure enough, the genius is on the left and the lunatic is on the right!

There is only a thin line between a genius and a madman.

"Chiba, are you kidding me?"

"It's not!"

Chiba spoke calmly.

"The world is dark, forcing countless people to sink, including many people including Mr. Snake!"

"I believe that you all thought about changing the world, and even took action so far, but all of you failed in the end!"

"You have all discovered that there is a problem in this world, but you don't know where the root of the problem is. You all have dreams about a beautiful world in the future, but you still can't find a specific path to that future!"

"Perhaps it's a lack of thought!"

"Thought!?"

Orochimaru's heart skipped a beat, he always had the feeling that Chiba was about to say something crucial.

Chiba nodded.

"That's right, only with a correct thought can guide people to change the world correctly!"

"What thought?"

"Mr. Snake, do you want to know?"

Orochimaru nodded with a smile.

"Appreciate further details!"

Chiba didn't say anything, just took out one of his notebooks and handed it to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru took a look.

——[My view of Marxism]!

"This is···!?"

"I have some superficial understanding of this kind of thought!"

"This kind of thinking originated from some great people... I read and studied since I was a child, and I learned about history, humanities, travel notes, and politics—"

"Combine this kind of thought with the locality of this world!"

"It's a pity that I couldn't witness it with my own eyes. If I have the opportunity, I would like to travel around the world and perfect this idea!"

At this moment, Orochimaru felt that Chiba was sick.

Moreover, he was seriously ill.

At the same time, it's crazy, and it's so crazy that it's justified.

However, as a confidant who [understands] each other, Orochimaru accidentally put away the notes.

"I'll watch!"

Chiba nodded.

"Thank you!"

"Mr. Snake, I hope the next time you and I meet!"

"I can call you—"

"Comrade!"
