Chapter 144: People's Hearts

"But!" I don't know that the expression of the fire grass suddenly became extremely determined.

At this moment, the faith in his chest seemed to burn like a fire, and the glint in his eyes seemed to have escaped from despair and found hope again.

"Even so, Lord Jeopardy can still become so powerful!"

"He proved to me that a civilian ninja can still break through the cage of fate without the support of his family and the help of high-ranking bigwigs!"

The above thoughts, I don't know that Izukusama has obviously been holding back for a long time, so when he said it, he was full of momentum, which made Kato, who was listening, a little sideways for a while.

Kato was touched in his heart, but he remained silent on the surface, just continued to put on a posture of deferential listening.

I don't know these sincere words of the fire grass, even if Kato gets along with each other all the year round, it is rare to hear of it.

In the past, Kato may have been able to guess a little bit of Shiranui's inner thoughts, but the communication between the two sides was basically superficial and not too deep.

One is that this kind of topic is too sensitive.

The second reason is that although the Kato family is not prosperous, it has been inherited for more than a hundred years.

Kato's position is strictly on the side of the ninja.

A firm stance, coupled with a clear goal, is why he wooed Akido Dingza.

The purpose is to find a breakthrough in the Autumn Road clan, and take advantage of the situation to pull the three major clans of Pig, Deer and Butterfly onto his chariot to provide assistance for him to ascend to the position of Hokage.

"And, most importantly......" Shiranui Kusama's mood seemed to calm down a bit, and he slowly said his thoughts and true purpose:

"In the face of oppression, Lord Jerekage dares to throw his fist at Tsunade and Jiraiya without hesitation."

"The Thousand Hands Clan and the Hokage disciples, even if the Shadow Lord is only a civilian ninja and was a mid-ninja a few months ago, he didn't show the slightest hesitation or retreat in front of them."

"I still remember the momentum he exuded at that time, and I am impressed by that demeanor."

"The strength, spirit, and will of Lord Jereshadow also give me hope."

"That's ......" I don't know that the fire grass's face was faintly expectant, his eyes were bright, and he said word by word:

"Hope to break the current pattern of injustice!"

Kato Tsukasa's gaze changed again as he didn't know the fire grass, it was a look of bitterness in the entanglement, and there was a faint feeling of confusion.

At this moment, Shiranui Kusama's body seemed to be shining with some kind of dazzling light, which was the light of having a firm goal and even a kind of faith.

This light is so dazzling that Kato has a faint tingling in his heart, and where does this sting come from?

Kato knew in his heart that Lei Luo's courage and will to not be afraid of power could not be done by himself, even if he had the strength of the other party, he could not do it either.

If he was in the perspective of Lei Luo at that time and was suddenly attacked by Tsunade, Kato thought that he should be able to restrain himself and then figure out what was going on first.

If Tsunade didn't mean it, then he probably put up with it; But what if Tsunade meant it? Kato didn't know what he would do, maybe ...... Will you put up with it?

And, break the existing pattern?

Kato had never thought about this kind of thing, even if he dreamed that he had become Hokage, and this question never came to his mind.

"Kusama, you ......"

Kato opened his mouth open, trying to speak, but he didn't, and the sound was so dry and hoarse, as if something heavy was stuck in his throat.

That thing, maybe it's called "reality", right?

All kinds of thoughts fluctuated, and Kato slowed down for a while, before trying his best to maintain a calm tone, and asked in an astringent voice:

"Kusama, you're telling me this, have you already made some kind of decision?"

"What are you going to do? Can you tell me? ”

I didn't know that Huokusama didn't answer immediately, but was silent for a while, then bowed his head slightly, leaned down and bowed to Kato.

As if he had guessed the intention of Shiranui Kusama's move, Kato frowned, and his face inevitably became a little gloomy.

When he finished his movements, he straightened his waist and said to Kato, "Captain, I want to follow Lord Jeokage and help him become Hokage." ”

"After this mission, I will apply to leave the team."

"When the time comes, there will be no one targeting the Autumn Dao Dingza, you must be a little happier, right?"

Although Kato wanted to say, "I'm not happy at all", after seeing the eyes of Shiranui Kusama, he already knew that it would be futile to make any persuasion.

Having said that, he didn't know that Huo Kusama was his old subordinate after all, and the feelings that he had been getting along for so many years could not be completely eliminated in an instant.

Reluctant, unwilling, unwilling to be troubled by all kinds of feelings, in the end, he still drove Kato's broken lips to say the question that he wanted to suppress:

"Is it worth it?"

In Kato's view, whether it is the root of Lei Luo, his suspicious past, or his slightly radical personality, he is obviously not a qualified boss candidate.

What's more, I don't know that Huo Kusama hadn't gone to Lei Luo before, but what happened to him, like many other shinobi, was all turned away by Lei Luo.

Shiranui Kusama's eyes were firm, and he replied without the slightest hesitation, "It's worth it." ”

"If it doesn't work once, it will be twice, if it doesn't work twice, it will be ten times, and if it doesn't work ten times, it will be a hundred times, and one day, I will make the Shadow Lady realize my sincerity."

"That day, even if it is a long time, I am willing to wait."

After Kusama finished speaking, he sighed softly, slowed down his tone, and said in an imperceptible voice:

"I'm sorry, Captain."

"But I really don't want to...... Let Genma live like me. ”

Ignorant Fire Genma, the son of Ignorant Fire Grass, was just born this year, and is not yet a year old.

As a father, although he is young, he has experienced the warmth and coldness of human affection, and he already knows that he has reached the limit of his middle forbearance.

Even if he does more tasks with Kato, he doesn't have any chance of promotion.

Just because, the strength requirements of the upper ninja or the special one, the lack of talent and resources will never be able to reach it.

In this case, the appearance of Lei Luo, a civilian ninja who has a "similar experience" to him, makes Shiranui Kusama keenly aware of the opportunity to change his fate.

Although Lei Luo is a mysterious person, and the purpose of "hiding his strength" since he was a child is unknown, this does not prevent Shiranui from making a choice.

The stance of fellow civilian ninjas, combined with what he saw that night, was enough to make Shiranui Kusama gamble on his future and that of their family.

I don't know what Hokusama is thinking, in fact, since the true face of the Absolute Shadow was revealed, there are still many ninjas who think the same way as him, and many of them have visited Lei Luo in person.

It's just that Lei Luo hadn't talked to Uchiha Fugaku at that time, and his goals and ambitions were far from being inflated, and the idea of becoming a Hokage couldn't arise, so he naturally had no interest in cultivating power.

Later, in order to plan the art of spiritualization, Lei Luo had to keep himself in his own state, and he also missed the visit of many people who wanted to follow him.

This back and forth, coupled with the arrogance in Lei Luo's bones, the result is:

Invisibly, Lei Luo doesn't know how many "subordinates" he has lost, which may be his character flaw, or it may be a kind of fate.

Living in this world, everyone has their own position and their own interests, Lei Luo is like this, Kato is like this, and the same is true of Shiranui Kusama.

Whether it's for power, or for dreams, or for family, all of them have to make choices for this.

No matter how reluctant you are, even if you don't want to, even if you don't want to, you still have to keep moving forward.

After all, that's the story they wrote for themselves.

Kato Tsuru and Shiranui were speechless, the former didn't know what to say, the latter didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere fell into an inexplicably heavy silence for a while.

But at this moment, Inuzuka's voice suddenly sounded from not far away: "Captain, Kusama, we are being followed!" ”
