Choose to complete the mission or choose the lives of your companions?
Facing the questions raised by Hatake Sakumo, Sato Hideaka, who was kneeling on the mat, began to think about himself. Since he chose to become a ninja, maybe he will also face such a choice in the future. Ww WCOM
If it were the previous Sato Hideaka, he would have chosen the life of his companions without hesitation.
But now that he has experienced several missions and witnessed the death of his companions, he has a full understanding of the importance of mission completion. B-level missions often face death, and A-level and above missions are more likely to face the death of several or dozens of companions...
What exactly is so-called protection?
Sato Hideaka pondered for a moment and gave his answer, "If there is a choice between completing an important mission and saving my companions, I will follow the most direct idea in my heart and complete it without any doubt or regret."
The truest thoughts in your heart?
The candlelight in Hatake Sakumo's eyes was beating, and the air seemed to be heavy.
Regarding his point of view just now, Sato Hideaka opened and closed his lips gently, and once again explained in his heart, "Konoha was originally established to protect, but no matter how important the task is, there is equality between individual life and the interests of the group."
"In my eyes, the so-called sacrificing the individual to benefit the interests and lives of the group is a ridiculous and absurd point of view. Whether it is sacrificing the individual to benefit the group, or sacrificing the group to save the individual, the choice between the two lies in its importance in one's mind!"
"You mean, when there is a conflict between wanting Yakushi Nonō and Konoha's fundamental interests, you will choose Yakushi Nonō, right?"
Hatake Sakumo, who had been silent for a long while, asked.
Sato Hideaka nodded and said, "If this situation really happens, I think: I will most likely choose sister Nonō."
This choice is exactly the same as mine!
Hatake Sakumo looked at Sato Hideaka with a determined look on his face, and the corners of his mouth raised in a rare smile, "People must be responsible for their own choices, and they must bear the consequences and responsibilities of their choices. Hideaka, do you have the courage to take responsibility?"
When Sato Hideaka heard Hatake Sakumo's words, he suddenly felt a little impatient. Failure in the mission itself will have to bear the consequences, but the consequences are huge, but what kind of consequences is Hatake Sakumo prepared to bear?
Could it be another consequence of suicide?
So isn't this kind of consolation useless?
"But your contribution to Konoha far outweighs the failure of this mission. Although I don't know what the secret mission is, after all, there were no casualties. What consequences are you prepared to suffer?"
"Okay, Hideaka, after talking to you, I can finally be firm about the confusing things in my heart." Hatake Sakumo suddenly stood up and said, "Land of Hot Water's mission is completed, you haven't gone home yet? Go back quickly... Nonō is waiting for you at home, she is also a person worthy of your efforts!"
"Then, senior, you..." Sato Hideaka also stood up and asked quickly.
Hatake Sakumo waved Teuchi to break Sato Hideaka's words, poured two cups of tea with the purple clay teapot on the table, placed one cup in front of Sato Hideaka, and then nodded to Sato Hideaka to drink it...
Serving tea to see guests off is a Chinese etiquette, and the same is true in Japanese animation.
At this time, Hatake Sakumo had already made a firm decision in his heart.
Sato Hideaka shook his head, took a sip of tea, and then said goodbye to Hatake Sakumo and left the community of the Hatake Clan. Once a determined person like Hatake Sakumo makes a decision, it is difficult for others to change it.
"This ghost is very special. He seems to have guessed your decision!"
In Hatake Sakumo's room, a tall purple man about thirty years old, wearing a Konoha Jounin green vest, slowly walked out of the darkness and sat down where Sato Hideaka had just sat.
Hatake Sakumo came to the locker in the room, opened the locker and took out a large amount of documents. He placed them on the table and then slowly sat back down and said calmly, "This child is an orphan. He may be more sensitive by nature. He is a good child who knows how to be grateful."
"His thoughts are as dangerous as yours, just like Uchiha's thoughts. The greater the power of "love", the greater the hatred when "love" is lost. Coupled with his talent, it may be more terrifying than Uchiha Clan." The purple man sat upright in front of Hatake Sakumo and said with a solemn expression.
Hatake Sakumo shook his head and said, "This idea itself is a kind of protection and a motivation to become more powerful, but whether we can lead him to the right path requires the guidance of you and Third Hokage, Zixiao."
Looking at Hatake Sakumo who didn't care about his situation at all, Mitarashi Shishio frowned. As a prospective Kage Level, he actually felt like he couldn't breathe. Staring at Hatake Sakumo's face, he said word by word, "Have you really decided? In this case, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to defeat you in the future..."
Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but shake his head. He and Mitarashi Shishio were students of the same grade. They had competed and fought countless times, but Mitarashi Shishio had not won once. This may be a long-term regret in his heart, but it's a pity...
I'm afraid there will never be a chance for a fight between the two in the future!
"Uchiha, Hyuga and other families are in conflict with the rights of the village center. As the minister of Anbu, I made such a major mistake and gave them a great opportunity. I am afraid that I will take the opportunity to expand my own rights. Regarding this incident, the advisory group may be biased towards Danzo."
Hearing Hatake Sakumo's words, Mitarashi Shishio clenched his fist tightly, making a "squeaking" sound when he squeezed it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Advisory team, a group of guys who only know how to compromise! Konoha only needs one shadow, and the existence of the root is already a compromise for Third Hokage. These guys are still thinking about fighting for power and profit. Do they want to split the Hokage line?"
"After all, they are all from the Hokage family. Instead of giving up the power to the wealthy family of Konoha, it is better to give all the power to the roots of the Hokage family. This may be their idea!" Hatake Sakumo seemed to have thought of something, his expression suddenly changed and he said, "However, I met Sasori of the Red Sands on this mission..."
Mitarashi Shishio opened his eyes slightly, and his purple eyes flashed with light. "Sasori of the Red Sands, that Sunagakure who single-handedly created "Crow", "Black Ant", "Ibuse" and other attack, capture, defense and other puppets, Sunagakure Puppet Corps's talented puppet stylist? Hasn't he never appeared on the battlefield and never shown his face...?"
"Although Sasori of the Red Sands has never shown up, among the Sunagakure members who spied on us this time, there is a young man who can flexibly control fifty puppets at the same time. He calls himself Sunagakure consultant Chiyo's grandson, Sunagakure's talented puppet stylist Sasori of the Red Sands!" Hatake Sakumo said here, paused slightly, looked at Mitarashi Shishio again, and said solemnly:
"At the same time, he also said that I was betrayed by one of my own... Although it may be shaking my heart, the large-scale gathering of Sunagakure ninjas to the border defense zone is abnormal in itself. I suspect that the action path this time may have been revealed by Konoha's internal high-level officials!"
"How is it possible? Apart from the Third Generation Master and the members of the advisory group, who else could know Anbu's action path this time?" Mitarashi Shishio said in shock, with a sudden look on his face.
"It is impossible for the third generation Lord Hokage, and the possibility of the advisory group is also low. Of course, it is also possible that it was revealed by an internal member of Anbu. In short, I always feel that there are spies inside Anbu. It may be Gen, or spies from the Konoha wealthy family. Only they can benefit from the success of this plan!" Hatake Sakumo narrowed his eyes slightly and analyzed carefully.
"The internal members of Anbu have abandoned the wealthy family. I am afraid it will be difficult for them to interfere in the internal affairs of Anbu. I think "root" is the most likely!"
Mitarashi Shishio thought carefully and analyzed.
Hatake Sakumo nodded, seeming to agree, and then pushed the file he just took out from the locker in front of Mitarashi Shishio, saying, "Okay, from now on Anbu will leave everything to you, and there are Help me take care of Kakashi, and pay more attention to Hideaka, Danzo is still watching him. If you can't even protect your subordinates, I'm afraid you will be even worse than me..."
"Kakashi I will take care of them. As for my subordinates, I will definitely protect them!"
Mitarashi Shishio glanced at Hatake Sakumo with a complex expression, held these key files of Anbu in his arms, and assured Hatake Sakumo in a deep voice. After a long time, the figure suddenly disappeared into the room.
After pondering for a moment, Hatake Sakumo stood up, a complicated light flashed in his eyes, and then drew out the ninja short sword behind his back.
In the dark room, a silver half-moon flashed...
Blood splattered everywhere! (To be continued.
