Chapter 25: The Decision of the Self

Sakaki and Jiraiya paced side by side, but they were separated by a foot from each other, as if some force prevented them from approaching.

Jiraiya, with a strong force, asked, "Sakaki, what were you doing just now?"

"Absorb the chakra!" Sakaki didn't seem to feel anything, and the smile on his face still didn't change at all, "It can also be said that it's 'eating' the chakra." ”

"The reason why you don't eat normal food is because you're eating chakra?"

"That's right!"

"So, that's why you shot at that man?"

"Hmm... That's it, I'm 'hungry' and want to 'eat' chakra, and he happens to have chakra on him......"

"Hungry, what happens if you don't 'eat' chakra?"

"Probably like someone who starves to death if he doesn't eat!"

"Why did that man age all of a sudden?"

"After sucking up the chakra on the other person's body, and sucking a little more of the yang attribute chakra that I want the most, the person who is absorbed will become old. ”

"So, what will happen to that man if I don't stop you?"

"Die!" replied Sakaki very honestly.

"You suck up his chakra, not to mention, but also take his life?"

"So what?"

"Don't you think it's too cruel?"

"Cruel? A ninja is an existence that relies on his own strength to act recklessly, dominate everything, and do whatever he wants, even if he is 'punished', it is only because he lacks strength, not because he is really punished for what he does! ”

This is an answer for ninjas that Sakaki has come up with after witnessing and even experiencing a lot of things in the war-torn rain country.

As for what I heard a few laundry women talking about a bully ninja in their village, wantonly oppressing the villagers, and even directly killing a certain villager's whole family, and a dove occupying the magpie's nest, Sakaki has never heard of it!

Then again, after the man was sucked up by the sakaki tree, he lost the strength to rely on him to act recklessly, and the next day he was beaten to death by the resentful villagers!

When he heard Sakaki's answer, the strength exuded from his body became more and more terrifying, and for the first time, he really felt the horror of Sakaki.

I've also seen the scene where the Sakaki sucks the dry snake, and I've heard Tsunade say that the Sakaki has the ability to absorb chakra, but I don't think there's anything abrupt.

After all, it took place on the battlefield, and it was a place where countless ninjutsu with the purpose of killing each other bombarded each other, and compared to this, Sakaki's absorption ability seemed to be nothing special.

However, he discovered that the absorption power of the sakaki tree was not used to kill, but to 'eat' chakra.

It may sound awkward, but it can be understood.

A person can kill someone for a variety of reasons, such as self-defense, protecting his fellow soldiers, and other legitimate reasons to kill someone, and he can understand it, just as he did when he opened Nagato.

If it is a negative reason, if a person wants to kill another person, he can also stop it, and he can even guide the right person to be good and not kill people.

But what if a person just wants to 'eat' the chakra? how can he stop it, how can he guide it, tell him not to 'eat' it, to starve to death?

The reality of needing to 'eat' the chakra, coupled with the cold personality shown in the answer, makes Sakaki a very, very dangerous child.

Zilai also thought of this, and his ears couldn't help but echo Tsunade's advice.

- If this child shows a hostile attitude towards Konoha, I want you to make a decision in time! I have a feeling that this child will be a very terrible being, and I don't want him to be Konoha's enemy!

Sakaki is really scary, does he have to make a decision?

Jiraiya stared at Sakaki tightly and asked one last question: "Sakaki, you have 'eaten' a lot of people's chakra, what happened to those people in the end?"

"It's a lot, and most of those people are dead... Well, Jiraiya-sensei, don't look at me so scary, as if I've done something earth-shattering! Actually, a powerful ninja like Jiraiya-sensei must be much more experienced than me when it comes to murder.

It's the same killing, Teacher, you kill more, and your companions in Konoha Village kill more and more people, but why can you look at me with such an expression? Just because of the justification of guarding, defending, bloody fighting, or something, or a reluctant past reason such as war, can you ignore the reality of your own killing?"

In the face of Sakaki's counterattack, Jiraiya took a deep breath and replied: "I haven't come to ignore the reality of my own killing, no matter what the reason is, killing is always wrong!"

"I know it's always wrong to kill, but you can't stop killing, right?"

"This is a reality that I can't deny, but as your teacher, I have an obligation to guide you in a direction that is at least not bad!"

Jiraiya's strength reached its peak, and he stretched out a large powerful hand towards Sakaki.

Sakaki's eyes were solemn, and he was ready to fight: if he couldn't be convinced, he would start fighting, and he would be captured!

"Absorb my chakra!" Jiraiya's guidance is not to resort to violence.

"What does that mean?"

"You shouldn't have 'eaten enough' yet, so what are you waiting for, my chakra is for you!"

Facing the big hand stretched out by Jiraiya, Sakaki shook it directly with his hand, and Jiraiya's big hand came up and held it very heavy.

Absorb!

Streams of chakras poured out of Jiraiya's hands, and after being absorbed by the core, they were transformed into red, yellow, blue, and blue chakras.

After 'eating' the man's chakra just now, the 'hunger' that was still unsatisfied finally disappeared, and Sakaki's expression showed a slight look of satisfaction.

At this time, Sakaki suddenly felt that the chakra from Jiraiya's hand was getting less and less, until no chakra could be absorbed at all. He increased the power of absorption, but still couldn't absorb Chakra.

Jiraiya is such a powerful ninja, it is impossible to just order chakra like this, and then look at Jiraiya with a full of energy, how does it look like a person who has been sucked dry of chakra?

"Sakaki, that's enough, right?"

"Why, I can't absorb your chakra?"

Jiraiya withdrew his hand, and there was a relief on his face that the problem had been mostly solved, and he explained, "I transferred all the chakras near my arm, so you can't suck the chakra, and as long as you have enough willpower to control the stability of the chakra, it will become very difficult for you to absorb it." ”

Sakaki pondered silently: I see, is this the weakness of absorbing the ability of chakra?

A few days later, Jiraiya was pleasantly surprised to find that the chakra that had been sucked by Sakaki had actually recovered, although the recovery time was many, many times longer than the recovery time required for the normally consumed chakra such as performing ninjutsu.

In this way, in Jiraiya's eyes, the threat and damage of Sakaki's ability to 'eat' chakra have been reduced countless times.

Jilai also thought: If you guide him well and change some of his ideas, you can completely let Sakaki walk out of a path of harmony with others.

That's what I think, and I'm really working hard.

"In the future, Sakaki will 'eat' my chakra, and the chakra obtained by harming other people is no more luscious than the chakra obtained from me, right?"

"Sakaki, if you really need to 'eat' someone else's chakra, I want you to understand that this is a kind of harm, some people you may be able to punish, but others you can't hurt anyway. ”

"Sakaki, think about it......"

In fact, Jiraiya doesn't preach much, and when he encounters a lot of things, he won't blindly use his experience to teach Sakaki how to do it, or affirm this and deny that, he will make them think, and then guide them to get answers with practical actions, with his own heart, and with his slightly confused but absolutely bright smile.

The effect of this set on Sakaki is unknown, but Jiraiya's hard work on Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan was not in vain, they really grew by leaps and bounds, and it was the kind of growth that Jiraiya wanted to see.

It is a seed of light and hope for change. One day in the future, the seed will grow into a towering tree, and hope will spread throughout the world.

Time flies......
