It's not just the grasp of the situation, but also the combat characteristics of speed and dodge, the reason why I say this is because Mizuto is closer to the essence of the White Fang's tactics than Makoto.

It seems that the victory in the danger is to be left to the death, but the extremely accurate combat mode of White Fang and Watergate to avoid danger must be attributed to the seemingly opposite essence of "cherishing life".

A long time ago, Makoto remembered that White Fang had told himself that on the battlefield, only those who are not afraid of death will not die, but those who do die will definitely die.

They appear to be dancing on the tip of the knife of life and death, but in fact they are carefully controlling the distance between themselves and death, and they are forever facing it across a three-way river.

"Okay, let's get ready, there are more than a hundred rain ninjas, but we can't let them run away for nothing."

Ignoring Makoto's embarrassment, White Fang stretched his waist, stood up, and spoke.

Makoto nodded, but didn't move.

"Huh?" White Fang glanced back at him.

"Shuo Mao, this person from Yamanaka Yujiu, I want to ask him to investigate something, can you help me talk to him?"

Makoto's subtext is, Yamanaka Yujiu, is it trustworthy?

"Yes."

White Fang's face was calm, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

In this battle, Konoha annihilated all the troops of the Sand Shinobi and Yunin, and its own loss rate was less than ten percent, which can be said to be a complete victory.

However, the people of more than a dozen small villages on the border of the Fire Nation were almost all killed on the battlefield, and tens of thousands of people were slaughtered, and after the follow-up troops of Konoha arrived at the place of the incident, almost all of them were shocked by the hellish scene on earth.

When the news spread, Konoha was in an uproar, and the entire Fire Country was in an uproar.

Originally, the outcome of the battle between the ninja villages was unpredictable, and if it was just a failure of the mission, the ninja village would have to take heavy responsibility, and the task would not be able to be carried out.

However, Konoha won a big victory on the frontal battlefield, but he allowed the unarmed people to be slaughtered, and the ordinary people who died of rabbits and foxes were stimulated by some of the "truths" deliberately leaked by Sand Ninja Yunin, and the crowd was excited, and there was even a matter of people storming Konoha in the towns and cities.

After some good people released the photo of the tragedy named "Blood Canyon", public opinion was even more solemn and sad, and underneath this, it was a raging anger at "Konoha incompetence".

A few days later.

White Fang led the team back from the expedition, but for the first time, there was no lively welcome scene in Konoha, only a few family members of the troops, under the Konoha gate, which can almost be described as a door, hiding in the shadows and watching.

And the Konoha troops did not have the joy of returning victoriously, and when they came here, they slowly dispersed at the Konoha gate one by one.

"Lord Cheng, the Great Elder is very satisfied with your performance on the battlefield and asks you to return to the family immediately." A member of the garrison stepped up and said respectfully.

Makoto nodded, glancing at White Fang, who was talking to a masked member of the dark department in front of him, knowing that this was because the family didn't want him to get involved in the whirlpool around White Fang, so he was ordered to get out of the way quickly.

"Let's go." Makoto saw only the back of White Fang, and after a pause, he turned and walked in the direction of the family, and the little leader of the garrison immediately followed him.

"Hokage-sama."

White Fang Yin bowed and slowly straightened up.

The face of the third generation ape Fei was gloomy and terrifying, he put his hands behind his back, and the two shadows behind him stood silently.

"Shuomao, you...... Alas, you let me down so much. ”

White Fang was silent, but he was very grateful to Ape Fei for his trust, in this case, Ape Fei preemptively met him, not for meaningless accusations, but just for a kind of protection. Otherwise, if the scene is changed and the two meet at the Shangnin Conference, there are some things that are not suitable to say and cannot be said.

"My lord, in that case, it's not that I won't save it, but I can't save it."

"The kindness of a woman!" Ape Fei raised his voice, and both White Fang and Ape Fei understood why he was scolding like this.

"My lord, even if I order to rescue those civilians with all my might, I will not necessarily be able to overcome the enemy's encirclement, and if I fail, not only will the survival of the troops not be guaranteed, but those civilians will also die. A ninja's life should not be sacrificed meaninglessly for such a thing. ”

"Ninja Village fights to defend the country, Shuo Shige, you say this, not only despise the glory of Konoha as a ninja village, but also despise the consciousness of Konoha ninjas, and they will not be afraid to sacrifice for the country. Even if they are defeated after a battle to the death, their deeds will contribute to the future of the village and the country. I know that you are not doing this out of cowardice, but in fact it has caused fear and avoidance of war. Ninjas are the force that guards the country, how can they be afraid of sacrifice? ”

"My lord, not everyone is willing to sacrifice." White Fang remained calm.

"Shuo Mao, what do you mean by that?" Ape Fei's voice turned deep, and his tone turned cold.

"Ninja, it's not anyone's tool."

"Hachiki Shuo Shigeru, I told you that ninjas fight for the country, and the state pays the ninja enough compensation, and the two are mutually beneficial, and there is no relationship between who is used by whom." Ape Fei also calmed down, lowered his eyelids, and said clearly.

"I mean, even for the sake of the village, the ninja should only voluntarily sacrifice if he wants to, and the ninja should not be a tool of the village." White Fang's face was like an instant, and he said calmly.

"Tools for the village! Village's 'tool'! Ape Fei was furious, and his eagle-like eyes stared at White Fang's eyes: "Good, good, good!" It turns out that your white fang is qualified to say such things! ”

After three shouts of hello, the ape flew forward, almost against the chest of White Fang, his stature was short, but even when he looked up, the suffocating momentum made people feel no disharmony at all.

"Not to mention that your Qimu family has been in decline for so many years, how the village is dedicated to protection! Not to mention that your 'Konoha White Fang' can survive so far, how many Konoha ninjas block swords and swords for you! You Qimu Shuomao patted his chest and thought about it, for the establishment and continuation of Konoha, how many ancestors of the Qimu family and other families were bloodstained on the battlefield! Their sacrifice and blood have created the prosperity of Konoha today, and you, him, mother, and the phrase 'Konoha tool', do you want to erase the dedication and heart of so many predecessors! ”

Ape Fei was furious, his hair was all over, and the ninja demeanor that had been dominant in the ninja world for decades was fully displayed, and under the emotion, the instinct of thousands of battles made him unconsciously refine the chakra, and under the explosion, a hurricane-like substantial 'momentum' was formed, and the office documents and decorations on the table were scattered and scattered, and the Hokage's office instantly became a mess.

White Fang took a slight half step back, avoiding the head-to-head confrontation with the Ape Fei's spirit explosion, and he muttered, "It's not a denial, no one can deny their greatness." But their [sacrifice] was also voluntary, wasn't it? ”
