Chapter Twenty-Eight: Thoughts on the Future
"What if it's peace in the Land of Rain?" Yahiko asked with a frown. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Using the teacup on the table, Mirai laid out a simple geographical location, and then said, "The Land of Rain is between the three kingdoms of wind, fire, and earth. No fool would let the flames of war reach their own territory, and a location like the Land of Rain would undoubtedly make for a great battleground......"
"So the question is, how should the country of rain, which is inferior in economy, military strength, and population, get out of such a predicament?" Mirai looked at the three of Yahiko and asked out loud.
"Of course, we are looking for an opportunity to negotiate peace with the three kingdoms of wind, fire, and earth, as long as we let them know our pain and let them understand our situation, then peace will appear!" Yahiko said solemnly that this is the belief he fought for.
"Alas, you still look at the problem too simply," the future sighed, "dialogue has always been based on the conditions of equality between the two sides, and the weak side can only be oppressed, don't you know that a weak country has no diplomacy?" ā
"......" Yahiko quietly listened to what the future said, thinking carefully.
"If you want to resolve disputes with the three major powers through dialogue, then there is only one most effective way," said Future in a deep voice, "and become stronger!" Strong enough to shelter the Rain Country, to the point where the Three Great Powers can't ignore you. At that time, in order to prevent the country of rain from falling to other countries and dealing with themselves, then the three major countries will inevitably curry favor with the country of rain in many ways. In this way, peace will naturally come. ā
"Did you do it like Hanzo did?" Nagato said aloud.
"Hanzo has done a good job, at least so that the Land of Rain is not a place where other big countries can come and go like other large countries like the Land of Grass. But that's just the extent that he's old after all......" Future commented lightly.
"......" Yahiko and the three looked at each other, what kind of attitude is this guy? That's the hero of the Land of Rain, a famous boss in the ninja world! In other words, is it really good for you, a teenage girl, to evaluate your predecessors like this?
"And what about the peace of the world?" Yahiko asked.
"The world......" Future looked out the window at the scenery and asked rhetorically, "Do you know what the root of the war is?" ā
Without waiting for Yahiko and the three to answer, the future said directly: "Religion, thought, resources, land, resentment, love, whim... These frivolous reasons are all excuses for going to war. War will never be extinguished, and as long as humanity exists, it will never end......"
"So I think humans have to understand each other! Only by knowing each other's thoughts and resolving disputes through dialogue is the right way! Yahiko again expounded on his philosophy.
This may sound reasonable, but it's just wishful thinking. In the presence of such a strange power as chakra, the power of human beings is magnified beyond the ordinary. The strength of power is often accompanied by the arrogance of the mind, coupled with the restless ambition in the first place, and the use of force to resolve disputes is the usual way. Otherwise, why was the Warring States period so tragic, and why did the current ninja war appear?
"Your theory has already been experimented with...... Future said lightly.
"What? Someone has already done it? The three of Yahiko looked at the future in amazement, there are such people, why haven't they heard of it.
"Who's that man?" The three asked curiously.
Looking at the anxious appearance of the three of them, Future replied: "Six Dao Immortals! ā
"What?!" Yahiko and the three of them were stunned, "Is it that mythical character?" ā
"In the beginning, there was no such thing as chakra in human beings, it was the Six Dao Immortals who founded the Ninja Sect and spread the chakra," the future explained, "At first, the cultivation of chakra was to be done by many people, and when cultivating, people could be connected through chakra, and originally the Six Dao Immortals wanted to use chakra to make humans understand each other and get out of the shadow of struggle." But as you can all see, Chakra has been used in the war, and the world has become more chaotic. ā
"The original intention of the Six Dao Immortals is certain, since he all believes that human beings need to understand each other, then I will definitely carry it out!" The words of the future not only did not discourage Yahiko, but inspired him.
Looking at Yahiko's confident appearance, a row of black lines hung down on the door of the future head.
"Well, that's all you hear?" A face of frustration in the future.
"Uh, this ......" Yahiko scratched his head, hesitant.
"Having said all this, I just want you to see the reality. It's a good thing that you have ideals, it's better than those careerists, and I hope you can stick to it as you really want and don't let reality knock you down......," the future said meaningfully.
"Hmmm! We'll definitely stick to it! The three of them nodded in response.
"In that case, let's leave it here." Future got up and walked outside the house.
"Future!" Behind him, Nagato's voice suddenly sounded.
Mirai turned away and looked at Nagato suspiciously.
"What about your ideals? You must be longing for world peace, too. So what do you do? Nagato asked expectantly. Yahiko and Konan are also full of curiosity.
"My approach ......" Future paused, and then said firmly, "From the Warring States period to the present, the ninja village system has been long enough, and the world must usher in change!" With that, Mirai turned and left, leaving the three in thought.
ā¦ā¦
On the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire, more than a dozen Konoha Shadows gathered here.
A ninja dressed differently from the rest of the shadows is at the head of the group. With a gloomy face and a white gauze wrap in his right eye, this person is none other than Shimura Danzo, a well-known ninja in the world.
Chirp! An eagle flew from the sky and landed next to Shimura Tunzo a moment later.
The eagle carries a letter bag on his back, this is a letter eagle. Shimura took out the scroll in the envelope and began to read.
Seeing the contents of the scroll, a trace of emotion appeared on Gu Feng's face.
"Danzo-sama, has something happened?" A dark ninja on the side asked.
Danzou put the scroll away and said solemnly, "All the people who entered the Land of Rain to pursue the Iwa Shinobi spy are dead. ā
"What?! Are they all dead? The Shadow Ninja who heard the news exclaimed incredulously. That's the six elite Konoha shadows, what happened to them?
"So what should we do next?" The Shadow Ninja asked Shimura Danzo.
"Postpone the plan first, and then we will carry out a sabotage operation when the follow-up troops are assembled." Shimura said.
"That'...... What about the Iwa Shinobi spy? ā
"That spy is nothing compared to this operation, and besides, it's impossible for us to chase it now." Shimura said.
"......" The group of dark ninjas nodded secretly, now that the spy may have entered the land of earth, how to chase it?
