"How about Sakumo, have you seen how dangerous it is for children who lack love since childhood, leading to inner distortion?"
Genjutsu, who had been hiding not far away, relying on Huang Bai, blocked Scorpion's perception. Hatake Sakumo, who had watched the normal battle, felt complicated at the moment.
First of all, he recognized the child. When he was alone in the Sunagakure rear area, he saw a couple who looked very similar to Scorpion. One of them also had red hair.
If nothing else, that couple was Scorpio's parents, and they died in his own hands.
But he didn't regret killing them. After all, they were hostile forces at the time, fighting for their respective villages. If he didn't kill them, many Konoha people would die when they supported the front line, and many Konoha children would lose their parents and relatives. He just felt a little emotional.
What made him feel even more complicated was what Tetsuya said before. Scorpio lost his father's love and mother's love when he was young, which led to inner distortion.
If you think about it carefully, the situation of your own Kakashi is actually similar to that of Scorpion.
He has lost his mother since he was a child, and he cannot always be with him.
Kakashi has been so good since he was a child, and this Scorpio can be seen to be a young genius.
He had heard a saying before that there was actually only a thin line between genius and madness.
Damn it, could it be said that Kakashi is actually as crazy as that guy named Scorpion?
It's just that Kakashi hasn't shown it yet?
"Boss Chiba, can I go back and see Kakashi?"
"Of course no problem."
Tetsuya agreed readily, just when Sakumo was about to say something.
He suddenly said again.
"But have you ever thought about a question? If you take the initiative to go back now, what problem will Meeting answer?"
"Will there be any problems if I go back at this time?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, think about it. Although the war has not yet reached Konoha, the war has already broken out. Presumably Konoha has also entered a state of war readiness. It is only a matter of time before the war begins.
And if you go back at this time, how will others see you?"
Hatake Sakumo is not a fool, of course he understands how others will see him.
"They will feel that they are returning to the village to gain military exploits."
"That's right."
Tetsuya nodded.
"Furthermore, you also know that over the years, Konoha, someone has been trying to find ways to erase your achievements and influence in the village while you were away, and you should know why.
If you go back now, I'm afraid you won't just be regarded as just coming back to grab military exploits. I'm afraid some people will think you're in the way..."
"Blocking their way!"
Hatake Sakumo was the first to say what Tetsuya had not finished.
"But why? These are extraordinary times, and war may spread to the village at any time. Why do they still think about this?"
"Hmm, yes, I also want to know why."
Tetsuya spread his hands and wants to know why, then you can ask Danzo directly.
He will definitely tell you in the firmest tone that everything is for Konoha.
Anyway, no matter how hard you hit Shinobi War, it's impossible to hit Konoha directly.
Konoha actually suffered three serious attacks. One was Madara Uchiha plus Nine-Tails, the other was Obito Uchiha plus in place, and the last time our rice-carrying master ran to Konoha to carry rice.
None of these things happened during Shinobi War. In short, the war will not affect their internal problems in Konoha, but some people will die.
But there is no reason why Ninja will not die. If it is better than God of Shinobi Hashirama Senju, it will still die.
"Then what should I do?"
Tetsuya rolled his eyes and smiled.
"I have an idea, but I don't know if you will agree to it."
"What an idea."
Konoha, Hokage Building.
With the outbreak of the war, although the flames of war have not yet reached Konoha, Konoha's security has become several times stricter than before.
A Messenger from the Chiba Commerce Association went through layers of inspections and finally took the things to see the top leader of Konoha, Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Lord Hokage, I finally met you. It's really not easy to meet you. It's much worse than what our president told me."
Hiruzen Sarutobi held Smoking Pipe in his mouth and said with a smile.
"Hahaha, I'm sorry. It's a special period. There's nothing we can do. We have to follow the rules, right?
Let's get down to business. I wonder, Mr. Messenger, do you have anything to say when you come back from afar at this time?"
"Cough cough cough!"
Messenger cleared his throat and showed a sad expression.
"Lord Hokage, I'm here to report the funeral."
"Announcement of mourning?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly frowned, and he had a bad feeling.
Don't tell me!
"Just a few days ago, a powerful Puppeteer wanted to assassinate our president. In order to protect our president, Mr. White Fang had a fierce battle with that Puppeteer.
Unexpectedly, that Puppeteer actually had a personal vendetta against Master White Fang, and finally killed Master White Fang at the cost of destroying his own puppet and seriously injuring himself."
As he said that, he placed the package on Hokage's table, and when he opened the package, there were two things inside.
The Ninja Blade White Fang used by Hatake Sakumo, and the Forehead Protector that are in tatters and are almost worn out and cannot be seen clearly even with the logo on it.
"I'm sorry, we can't bring back Master White Fang's body. After all, the final explosion was too tragic. Master White Fang is everywhere..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't reply, he just lowered his head and kept smoking. The smoke kept spitting out from his mouth, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.
"Sakumo, I didn't expect him to leave like this."
After a long time, Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a long sigh.
I can't tell whether it's regret or something else.
"Sorry Lord Hokage..."
"Okay, you don't have to say sorry."
Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted him and said.
"We are all Ninja. The moment we take over a mission, we are destined to risk our lives to complete the mission. Even if we sacrifice ourselves during the execution of the mission, it is normal.
We should say we are sorry. Logically speaking, if White Fang died, we should immediately arrange manpower to take over White Fang's original tasks, but as you know, Shinobi World is not in peace now, and we Konoha really can't spare any manpower."
"It's okay, we can understand. Mr. White Fang is a hero. On behalf of our president, I am willing to use some pension money to compensate his family."
As he spoke, Messenger took out a sum of money and put it on the table.
Nominally, this money is given to White Fang's family, but since it is placed on Hokage's table, it is naturally Hokage's business how to arrange it.
"I understand. White Fang gave his life for the mission. He is indeed a hero and a role model for our Konoha Ninja. I will also take a sum of money from the village to compensate his family."
"Then it's all thanks Lord Hokage."
Sakumo felt that it was a bit of a loss to just give Hokage money, but Tetsuya told him that it would not be a loss to buy you a hero's name with money.
Moreover, after receiving the money, Hiruzen Sarutobi will not be reluctant to bear such a name. After all, a dead hero will not have any impact, but can set an example for others.
