"Why?

Why am I a pest on the village?

Villagers, I'm Naruto! I'm not a monster, I'm a bit naughty, but I haven't done anything harmful to the village! ”

Naruto's forehead was covered with sweat that trickled down into his eyes, making him feel unbearably sour.

He didn't care about wiping, he didn't care about blinking.

He clasped his hands to his chest, and he was trying his best to explain to the villagers that this was not the case.

Although he also doesn't know what the facts are.

Even, he didn't understand why he wanted to explain with such a group of killers.

Gaining the approval of the villagers, this is what he has always insisted on, this is his way of ninja.

However, with the words of these masked ninjas, Naruto's long-held beliefs gradually fell apart.

If he had said Naruto before, he would have been able to keep his mouth shut, but after going through so much and knowing a lot of truth from the inverted lion, he was no longer confident in the path he had adhered to in the past.

With the sound of the killers laughing, Naruto's old three views began to shatter.

"It's ridiculous! You really think of yourself as a member of the village! ”

"If it weren't for the three generations who wanted to use you as a deterrent weapon in the village, they would have kicked you out a long time ago!"

"Youkai! You are alive until now thanks to our magnanimity! ”

“……”

This sentence constantly bombarded his past cognition.

Naruto's eyes were red, and he wanted to go up and explain to these people, but he was restrained by the dirt under his feet, lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.

"I've never done anything evil, I'm not a monster! I'm also a member of the village, and I want your approval, I've never done anything evil......"

Naruto repeated the words over and over again, but slowly sank into the ground as he was wrapped in long whips of sand.

Gradually, there was no sound.

He stretched out his hand, and the desire to survive made him reach out and crawl outside.

But then, he felt a strong tingling in the back of his hand.

The purple-haired ninja, stomping Naruto's palm hard with his toes, laughed arrogantly, "Damn youkai! Uncle Ben doesn't care if you've done anything evil!

You're a monster! Your existence is the greatest evil! ”

Naruto's hand gradually lost its strength.

The whole body fell into an endless abyss.

The name of this abyss is Despair!

……

Gradually, Naruto felt the squeezing sensation of the sand around his body disappear, and his body seemed to fall onto a plane.

"Where is this, is this the afterlife?" Naruto was like a puddle of mud, and even if he found out that he was in a different place, he still didn't have any desire to get up.

A voice that was too familiar to be familiar sounded: "Naruto, do you understand?" ”

"Inverted lion?" Naruto suddenly opened his hazy teary eyes, and pressed the last strength in his "heart" to get up, and looked left and right, looking for the source of the sound.

All around, including the ground, were like lava, burning with crimson flames.

The golden streamer occasionally flickered in this space, like a meteor shower, which was beautiful.

At this moment, a young man who was so handsome that he seemed to be an immortal stood in front of Naruto, bent over, and pulled him up by the collar of his clothes.

"Naruto, how does it feel to have your head broken and bleeding?"

"Down, down, ......" Naruto suddenly cried aggrievedly, his tears were like floods that had opened the floodgates, how could he not be contained.

"I just want to be recognized by them.

I have done no evil.

They, they all reject me, they call me a monster......"

Naruto kept rubbing his sleeve against the tears in his eyes, but no matter how much he rubbed it, no matter how tightly he closed his eyelids, he couldn't stop it.

How strong he was in the past, how fragile he is now.

Zhu Ping stretched out his hand, touched Naruto's head, and smiled gently, "I know, I know everything."

I understand your grievances, your pain, my heart.

I'm here to help you.

So now, do you know what I wanted to teach you before? ”

Naruto didn't respond, because the world in his mind was shattered, and now he was at a loss.

Zhu Ping sighed, faced the sky, and waved his palm.

A scene emerged.

"You are a child with a sense of justice in your heart, and you are also a kind child, you helped the fisherman, and you were equally unwilling to kill those swordsmen, and finally let them go.

Do you know what the result is? ”

The next moment, Zhu Ping's palm was lightly wiped, and the picture in mid-air turned into a blood-stained Japanese-style package, and Matsumoto's hysterical angry scolding sounded around him: "Uncle Ben, let that ninja who doesn't have long eyes die!"

No matter what the cost, hire a ninja to kill him! ”

Naruto's pupils constricted slightly, and he trembled and pointed to the picture in mid-air, and said, "That old man......"

"Dead! Retaliated by the swordsman! "What Zhu Ping said is the truth.

After saying this, Zhu Ping's hand shifted, as if moving the cloth, so that the picture in mid-air quickly changed.

A scene that Naruto Munaruto may or may not know passed in front of him...... The insult of Ebisu, the malice of the villagers, the hunting of the ninjas.

and the smug smiles of Yamanaka Kaichi and Shoaki Michichi Dingza as they discuss with each other how to shape the children of their best friends, the four generations of Hokage, into the kind of ninja that the village wants.

This is the end of the picture!

At this moment, Naruto's mouth began to silently recite the contents of the will of fire very unnaturally: "Where the leaves fly, the fire grows......"

Zhuhei didn't speak, waiting for Naruto to finish everything he wanted to say, until Naruto had the courage to face this world.

Naruto's brainwashing effect seemed to be too powerful to speak, and in just a few minutes, Naruto was able to pull out his legs that had been trapped deep in the quagmire of despair again.

At this moment, Zhu Ping spoke.

"Do you think your Will to Fire is right?"

"It was precisely because of the four generations and the dedication of the Hokage that I had a chance to live!"

After listening to Naruto's words, after finishing talking about the legitimacy of the will of fire.

Zhu Ping's voice was still so breezy that it seemed that he didn't care about the destruction of the world: "Naruto, I'm asking you, do you think your will to fire is right?"

Not the will of four generations, but your will! ”

Naruto suddenly fell into a trance and muttered in confusion, "Mine, what's the difference between my will of fire and that of the four generations?" ”

"There are thousands of faces, and any language that is narrated by others will be labeled as subjective.

Since the food you like is different from the food that others like, then why are you sure that you think that the will of fire is exactly the same as the will of fire of others! ”

Zhu Ping crouched down to eye level with Naruto, pointed his finger at Naruto's chest, and said, "The sacrifice of the four generations is to protect you, and it is willing to make you a fire that continues to burn."

Because you deserve to be saved!

And what about your efforts? Who are you protecting, and are those you protecting really worth saving? ”

Is it worth saving? This sentence stopped Naruto, and he wanted to refute the inverted lion, but he couldn't say anything.

"Remember the words I engraved in your heart earlier?"

Naruto nodded and said silently: "Repay virtue with virtue, repay grievances with straightforwardness, repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue......"

Silent until the end, he fell into deep thought.

He had recited this sentence countless times before, but none of them was as profound as this one.

Oh, yes!

He has always repaid his grievances with virtue, as he did when he was a good old man against a swordsman, and in the end he let those people go, and in the end he also killed the fisherman.

He has always been a hypocrite, and when Ebisu insulted him, he chose to let the other party go, which eventually led to the current near-death situation.

He has been carrying out the Will of Fire.

Or rather, he was carrying out "what he considered to be the will of fire."

Admittedly, the villagers need protection, but the question is, are all people worth protecting?

If you are endlessly kind to everyone, then you will definitely get good results?

These days, his experience has taught him what reality is!

Endless good, evil, great evil!

Repay grievances with virtue, how to repay virtue, how to punish evil?

Do not punish evil, not promote good, always indulge in evil!

He will even destroy his beloved village because of this "disguise as kindness".

"Naruto, do you understand?"

Naruto was calm and without any anger, he raised his head, looked at the inverted lion resolutely, and said word by word, "Inverted lion, I was wrong!"

In this world, not everyone deserves my recognition!

The fire of Konoha is to protect the people who should be protected, not to protect some people through unwarranted protection, even if some people are evil! ”

Naruto had a new will of fire in his heart, and he had a more reasonable means to protect the village.

"Get out of here!

The outside world still needs you to save! ”

……

In a blink of an eye.

Naruto, who was deep in the mud and sand, regained consciousness, and he sensed an incomparably large, mountain-like, torrent-like force in his body for him to move on.

With a slight leap, Naruto broke through the enemy's restraints, spurting through the near-infinite chakra beneath his feet, briefly remaining in mid-air.

He raised his hands above his head, spread his ten fingers, and held them up in a void.

An almost pure golden ball of light condensed between his palms.

Tailed Beast Jade ...... It's as if he was born with this ninjutsu.

Naruto looked at the "enemies" on the ground, either out of fear and begging for mercy, or cursing with the fox and the tiger.

Silently closed his eyes, his mind empty.

When he opened his eyes again, his gaze was determined.

"From now on, I will carry out my new ninja path!"

The ground bloomed with a second sun!
