Chapter 43 Faith

Rope Tree noticed Shinnosuke's strange mood and said with a relaxed face: "Don't worry, Shinnosuke, although these bandits have good discipline, they are just ordinary people for ninjas. I'll send a shadow clone to the cottage to find out, and we'll just have to wait here. ”

After Rope Shu finished speaking, his hands quickly sealed, and he had completed the real clone technique in less than a second, and even Akido Fetch couldn't capture his movements, and he couldn't tell the difference at all.

In an instant, a figure identical to the rope tree appeared beside him, and the clone and the main body nodded, and then shouted in a low voice after pretending to make a few seals, "Earth Escape, Rock Hidden Technique", and then jumped off the big tree and escaped directly into the ground.

In fact, his real clone only contains a chakra amount of lower ninja and can't use the "Rock Hidden Technique" at all, and he can move freely underground at high speed by relying on the ability of the wood element incarnation, and there is no need to consume chakra.

Akido Fetch felt that this shadow clone of the rope tree seemed to be very weak, but he was good at physical arts, and he didn't have in-depth research on ninjutsu, so he didn't say much.

Not to mention that the rope tree itself and the group waited silently in the canopy, but it was said that the real doppelganger of the rope tree intervened in the organic matter network and walked towards the cottage at high speed after entering the underground.

The rope tree quickly passed through the gate of the cottage through the root system of the plant, and he sensed the situation on the ground as he walked underground, and in less than ten minutes he had taken a general tour of the important buildings of the entire cottage with heavy soldiers, and he had found the warehouse, the kitchen, and the prison where the slaves were kept. What surprised him was that not only was the warehouse full of supplies, but there were thousands of people in the cells, and it seemed that these bandits should have just completed a loot recently, and now they should be waiting for the rich man behind them to come and pick up the "goods".

Most of the civilians who were arrested and imprisoned in the cells by the bandits were teenagers and young children, not a single middle-aged or elderly person! And these civilians cannot be all orphans without parents and relatives, and the fate of others is unknown.

The cell was filled with despair and sadness, and the eyes of the older teenagers were filled with anger and hatred in addition to the deep sadness.

And those young children who have not yet understood are imprisoned in this gloomy cell after witnessing the tragic death of their loved ones, their hearts are full of fear and helplessness, hunger, cold, and strangers around them, all these environmental factors irritate them all the time, and they seem to be unable to do anything but cry.

However, the older "inmates" who are full of anger but have nowhere to vent their anger do not even give them this right, and several young children have already been beaten for "making noise".

Of course, even in this case, there are still some people who maintain their "kind" nature, and they naturally stand up to protect the young children and at the same time criticize those angry companions, but unfortunately they are a minority after all, and they cannot punish the perpetrators of violence, and finally can only compromise and take on the "responsibility" of ensuring that these young children do not cry anymore!

Young children are completely unable to understand the advice of others, and it seems to be their instinct to cry more and more persuasively, and how long can their "kindness" last with the cynicism of these disobedient children and those who commit violence, and the indifference of most people? Perhaps soon, some of them will not be able to suppress their anger and turn to the ranks of the abusers.

This small cell is simply a microcosm of the ninja world, full of rules of the jungle and all kinds of human nature.

Rope Tree looks at the tragic situation in the prison cell, and is full of disgust for this chaotic and cruel ninja world, and at the same time cherishes his happiness even more. In this world, being weak is really the original sin, and how many people who survive in this cruel environment and encounter all kinds of misfortunes can maintain normal psychology and not be distorted? At the same time, people's hearts are deep and yearning for light. That's why so many ruthless villains in the original book were influenced by Naruto's mouth, right? Because Naruto, who is simple-minded and kind-hearted, can easily awaken the yearning for light in people's hearts. But all this is based on strength, and if you are to reconcile the situation of these civilians, who can guarantee that your heart will not be lost?

Maybe it's because he said too much and even believed himself, as a traverser, the rope tree for the first time gave rise to a sense of mission and justice, he wanted to save these civilians and punish those bandits, not for the sake of power or for any economic strategy, aside from the interference of these calculations and interests, he simply wanted to do this! This is probably what the protagonists in the previous life online article said "from the heart", right? After the rope tree made up his mind, the prompt of the wish power system sounded in the soul: "Ding, the host has realized that the heart has given birth to a "wish", triggering the task "Thought Mastery", killing all the bandits in the country of extinguishing the fire, and rescuing all the hostages will get 100,000 wish power points!" ”

The system's sudden task prompt was really a surprise to the rope tree, since the creation of the system thought that he had got a lot of tasks released by the system, such as "early graduation" and "Konoha genius", these are the main tasks released after the system analyzes his environment, and there are many such tasks, such as "becoming a Hokage disciple", "obtaining the title of ninja world", "becoming the fourth generation of Hokage", etc., it can be said that all kinds of behaviors and calculations of the rope tree over the years have been carried out around these main quests. However, the desire power obtained from these tasks is born from other people's emotions towards him, and Rope Tree never thought that he could also generate wish power, "System, what is the task of "mind understanding"?"

"The host makes a great wish when he touches the scene, and if he completes it, he can obtain a large amount of wishing power, and the principle is similar to that of the great vow of Buddhism."

"The great wish of Buddhism? Are you referring to the Jizo King Bodhisattva's "Hell is not empty, and you will not become a Buddha"? and the 48 vows of Amitabha Buddha?"

"Yes, the two Buddhist sages made a great vow from their hearts, and after Amitabha Buddha fulfilled his vow, he opened up the Western Elysium and became the head of the religion by relying on his huge wishing power. And the King of Jizo Bodhisattva also relied on the power of his heart's great wish to practice diligently, although he did not become a Buddha, he had the realm of a Buddha. Although the wish made by the host is not fulfilled, it comes from the heart without selfishness and desire, so after completion, you can get 100,000 wish power. ”

"I see." The rope tree is hiding in the ground thoughtfully, 100,000 points of wish power is not too little or too much for him now, it takes more than 100 days of accumulation to obtain, but the system's explanation of "original wish" has opened a new door for him.

How similar is this "wish" to the "faith" that he often uses to perform mouth escape (flickering), and is the reason why the protagonist of the comic who also always talks about "faith" is also related to the power of will? The more I think about it, the more I think it's possible, and it seems that the "faith" that has been ignored is really an important factor that cannot be ignored.
