March 5th is the birthday of Yakushidou's adoptive mother, Yakushi Nonoyu,

How to portray a vivid character in just a few words? In "Hokage", Yakushi Nonoyu is a good answer.

Of course, I have also made some interpretations of the role of pharmacist Ye Naiyu before, so I will not go into detail about the repetition here, and interested partners can take a look:

As for the role of Yakushi Ye Naiyu, in fact, it was "mentioned" at the beginning, and finally after some "adjustments", there was the role we see now.

For example, in the first part of the Zhongnin Exam, after Yakushidou announced his abstention, Azuki and the three generations of Hokage once exchanged information about Yakushidou, pointing out -

Yakushidou was a young man who was brought back in the Battle of Kikyo Mountain that year, and then adopted by the medical class.

At that time, Dou's performance was actually not at the highlight moment, and his performance outside was more like an old pedant than a ninja with a transcendent level of actual combat, but the setting of "being adopted by the upper ninja of the medical class" also laid the groundwork for the demonstration of Yakushidou's medical ninjutsu level soon after.

For example, before fighting Kakashi, Kakashi also "enriched" this setting again - it was the ninja children of the Konoha medical class.

Since then, Yakushidou's superb level of medical ninjutsu can also be described as "astonishing", whether it is this fight with Kakashi, or as Orochimaru's "portable doctor", or the fight between Sanninja and Tsunade.

Of course, after the official debut of the pharmacist Ye Naiyu, we can also know that Dou is a child who grew up in Konoha's orphanage, and his medical ninjutsu was indeed taught by his "adoptive mother" at the beginning, that is, the director of the orphanage, Yakushi Ye Naiyu.

When the war breaks out in Konoha, the orphanage will also help the Konoha ninjas to treat the wounded as a logistical tool, so as to obtain funds to subsidize the family.

Therefore, in the initial setting, there is a deviation in the information that "Dou was adopted by the ninjas of the Konoha medical class" - Dou was adopted by the Konoha Orphanage, and the orphanage will take on some medical logistics work in wartime.

And the reason for this deviation, in fact, there can be several explanations, the first is a simple and crude judgment is the change before and after the setting, and the second is that it can be brought into the story to understand.

"Dou was adopted by the Kaminobu of the Konoha Medical Class" may also be the file information that was modified after he was recruited by Gen to erase the records of his association with the orphanage and Yakushi Nonoyu, in order to cover up the "sins" that Gen had committed. ”

In the reminiscences of Yakushidou,

Dou wants to repay the orphanage and the director for everything he has brought to him, so he joins the root, and Yakushi Ye Noyu also falls into the net again in order to "redeem" the Dou he loves.

A mission that I thought would reunite myself with my loved ones was actually a fratricidal trap that had been laid for a long time.

Since then, he has been deprived of the meaning of being a medicine master, and Yakushi Ye Naiyu didn't understand the panicked child in front of him and the goal of her assassination mission until he died.

In fact, it is the family she has always wanted to bring back.

It's a tragedy,

A tragedy of being used because of love.

March 1 - The second generation of Thunder Shadow Ai

March 1st is the birthday of the second generation of Lei Ying Ai,

Of course, because the title of "Ai" is the name inherited by the Thunder Shadows, generations of Thunder Shadows will use "Ai" as their external name, so the real names of the first four generations of Thunder Shadows are actually unknown.

Because of this, when distinguishing these characters, everyone is still used to calling them "the Xth generation of Thunder Shadow". Even sometimes the title "Ai" can be regarded as the default title for the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow.

PS: Only the fifth generation of Thunder Shadow everyone knows that his name is Karui, because he was originally the right hand of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow under the name of Karui.

And, from the first generation of Thunder Shadow to the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, their birthdays are the first day of a certain month, which is also very similar to a custom tradition of Thunder Shadows-

Like what

The birthday of the original Thunder Shadow is December 1st,

The birthday of the third generation of Thunder Shadow is August 1st,

The birthday of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow is June 1st,

If one or two is a coincidence, then three or four are generally deliberately designed as such.

However, this "tradition" has also been broken in the fifth generation of Thunder Shadow Darui (Ai), because Darui's birthday is January 6th, which does not meet the above rules, but he and the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow have a January 6th and a June 1st, and it is difficult to say whether it is a deliberate design from a numerical point of view (after all, this aspect has never been officially explained).

Speaking of the second generation of Thunder Shadow, in fact, there is a blank space in the later period as a supplement to the history of ninjas, and people like the second generation of Thunder Shadow don't have much space to introduce them, so their appearance shots are also pitiful, and in general, there are three places.

The first place:

In the Fourth Ninja World War, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow's description of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn brought out the second generation of Thunder Shadow.

In fact, this is also a supplement to the story in the memories of Tuanzang at the end of the previous Five Shadows Talks, when Tuan Zang, the second Hokage, Sarutobi and others were besieged by the Golden Horn troops, and Sarutobi was ordered to be in danger, including the final fall of the second Hokage, all because of this incident.

Regarding this matter, the explanation of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow is also:

The Golden Horn and Silver Horn Brothers staged a coup d'état during the ceremony of the alliance between Cloud Hidden Village and Konoha Village, and attacked the second generation of Thunder Shadow and the second generation Hokage.

Combined with what Tsunade said later, "The Golden Horn and the Silver Horn can use the five ninja tools known as the Six Paths Immortal Treasure to make the second generation Hokage seriously injured by death", there is a high probability that the second generation of Thunder Shadow was also killed in this attack.

PS: As for the details of this accident, in fact, nothing is revealed in the story.

In addition, judging from the introduction of the "Book of Arrays", although the second generation of Thunder Shadow is more fierce, he is a nuclear good, ah no, he is a kind person, otherwise he would not have tried to form an alliance with Konoha Village.

The second place:

The second appearance of the second generation of Thunder Shadow is in the memories of the first Hokage - at that time, the first meeting of the Five Shadows had just been held, and he accompanied the first Thunder Shadow at that time, and the other escorts (guards) present also became the shadows of the future successor village (except for the Mizukage, who became the third generation of Mizukage, the others became the second generation of Shadows).

It can be seen that the "gold content" of this five-shadow meeting is very high.

The third place:

In the third place, when the story was about to end, the six immortals gathered all the shadows from the past and used psychic techniques to bring Naruto and others from the other world back to the ninja world with the tailed beasts.

And in the end, he followed the souls of his predecessors and juniors and returned to the Pure Land.

February 29 – Yakushidou

February 29 is Yakushidou's birthday.

But considering that Dou itself has the dual attributes of "amnesia" + "orphan", this birthday is likely not to be his real birthday, and February 29 itself is also a very "rare" day, so the setting of this special birthday itself can be regarded as part of his tragic attributes.

In addition, although he has long been a member of the camp that opposes the protagonist group (the Orochimaru camp, the ninja world warlord organization camp), Yakushidou has actually done a lot of things that are beneficial to the protagonist group and others:

For example, in the official match of the middle ninja exam, he took the initiative to treat Hinata, who had a recurrence of an old injury.

(There is no official reason given for this move at all, it can be said that Yakushidou is overflowing with medical virtues, or it can be said that he is on a whim, or from the overall situation, he can't let Hinata's incident affect the process of the middle ninja exam and destroy the Konoha Honkai plan, of course, it can't be because Yakushidou peeked at the script and knew that the girl in front of him in the future would be the wife of the protagonist Naruto.) ）

The dark part here is disguised by Yakushidou

Another example is that in the battle of Heaven and Earth Bridge, he wanted to help Yamato, Sakura and others.

(The reason given by Yakushidou for this move was that the Akatsuki organization was their common obstacle at that time, so he wanted Konoha to kill a few more members of the Akatsuki organization), and later Yakushidou used medical ninjutsu to heal Sakura and left.

In the story of the Deidara chapter, Dou even took the initiative to show up to meet Naruto and the others, and gave Naruto a piece of information about the Akatsuki organization.

(The reason for this move is to thank Naruto)

PS: At that time, Orochimaru had already died, and Yakushidou himself was not among the chases of the Xiao organization, so Yamato once again questioned Yakushidou's purpose of taking the initiative to help, and this plot was also the opposite of the plot of Yakushidou's help in the Battle of Tiandiqiao.

And the specific reason for this gratitude also represents the confused life of the pharmacist:

With the death of Orochimaru, Yakushidou's positioning in his life has shifted again,

But at the same time, he "realized" another possibility from Naruto's story, so he adopted a "deformed" imitation method according to his own understanding - transplanting Orochimaru into his own body, aiming to surpass Orochimaru and find a new self.

But this behavior of the pharmacist still did not get rid of his basic routine of "copying" others.

Whether it is a replica of Orochimaru or a replica of Naruto, Yakushidou is imitating other people's survival patterns, and this kind of imitation without self is doomed to him not being able to find himself, and it is also doomed to his failure.

Incidental boring trivia:

As a very representative "glasses man" in "Hokage", Yakushidou also has a habit of pushing the glasses frame very much.

Even the cover about himself is pushing the frames of the glasses.

Asura and Indra

The appearance of these two characters may also be to modify a setting, to modify the setting that Naruto is a Six Paths Immortal (reincarnation).

The Six Paths Immortal originally originated in the memories of "Naruto" Chapter 373 Jiraiya, he was described as "the ancestor of ninjas", "the owner of the reincarnation eye", and "the origin of ninjutsu", he is the god of creation and the god of destruction, and is a mythical figure in the ninja world, it can be said that the legend of the six immortals directly pulled the existence of the reincarnation eye to a very high level

And it was also because of the discovery of Nagato's reincarnation eye that he decided to teach the three of them skills

And when this character is mentioned again, it is in the narrative of Obitu in Chapter 467 of the Five Shadows Talks, the Six Dao Immortals are still the existence of "Ten Tailed Human Pillar Force", "Sealing Ten Tails and Creating Nine Tailed Beasts".

And in the later 510 chapters of Obitu's words to Xiao Nan, the image of the Six Dao Immortals appeared again

In these three narratives, the silhouettes of the six immortals are all the same, and except for the reincarnation eye, the more iconic appearance is the two "horns" on the head and the six hook-shaped "decorations" on the chest

And which image of the Six Dao Immortals matches very well?

In chapter 499, Naruto obtained the Nine-Tails mode (commonly known as the Golden Body mode)

The same two horns, the same six magatama, and even the face shape are very similar

It was also when the Nine-Tails were sealed again in this sentence that the Nine-Tails exclaimed: "This is the ...... of the Six Paths"

This sentence can be described as a huge implication

And the completely nine-tailed mode that appears in Chapter 571 can be said to be closer to the image of the Six Dao Immortals on the basis of maintaining the original - more collars

In the next episode of the Nine-Tails' memories, the Six Dao Immortals do not appear in the image of silhouettes, but appear in real backs

I have to say that the wrinkles on the cheeks of the six immortals are really misleading, and at first glance they also have similarities with Naruto's face

At that time, there was no talk of the Six Paths and Ten Tails Seals, and neither the Six Paths Obito nor the Six Paths Spots appeared, but the Golden Horns and Silver Horns, who were called the descendants of the Six Paths, were also similar to Naruto's face

I think that up to this time, Kishimoto still had the idea of setting Naruto as the reincarnation of the Six Paths Immortals

And Naruto's setting at that time may still be "gradually upgraded and then turned into the second Six Paths Immortal to pacify the war", just like what the masked man said about increasing the reading order according to the order of writing the wheel eye to the reincarnation eye

But why are there two more images, Asura and Indra?

Maybe it's because although this work is called "The Legend of Naruto", it also has another important character, Naruto's bond - Sasuke

At the end of chapter 573, Sasuke appears

In order to maintain the bond between Naruto and Sasuke, there is a story supplement between Asura and Indra

The image of Sasuke and Naruto's opposite, loving and killing each other, is similar to the original Hokage Senju Tsuruma and Madara Uchiha, and the story of the first generation and Madara was mentioned as early as chapter 398 and talked about the six immortals having the bloodlines of these two in chapter 510, so supplementing the story of Asura and Indra, this is a bit like enabling a foreshadowing that is not a foreshadowing!

Naruto returned to the village after the seventh class duel, and was questioned by other Xiaoqiang "Why do you have to deal with Sasuke alone", Naruto mentioned "You can't defeat Sasuke now", and Naruto recalled this scene again when the six paths were transmitted, and it turned out that at this time he realized that Sasuke was the reincarnation of Indra Chakra.

Therefore, in chapter 488, Sasuke at least obtained the same status as Naruto - if Naruto corresponds to Hajiro at this time, Sasuke corresponds to Rain Village.
