The old devil Konoha wants to be a good person

"Lord Linru, are you busy?"

Just as Linru was silently adjusting his mentality and preparing to leave Xingyin Village to intercept Iwagakure's tens of thousands of troops, Quan suddenly opened the door and walked into his room.

After a month of recuperation, the girl has completely recovered.

Whether it was his slightly blurred eyes, excessive chakra consumption, or severely overdrafted body, he seemed to be back to the way he was before the war, or even better than that.

The trauma caused by the war is almost non-existent. Even after turning on the kaleidoscope, a certain pressure that has been lingering on the surface of the pupils has completely disappeared.

Quan didn't know why and could only blame it on his good physical condition.

Perhaps, it also means a breakthrough in battle?

Thanks to Linru's unique argument when explaining his strength improvement in Konoha, Izumi now believes that fierce fighting can promote strength improvement, but the effect...

It seems more magical than imagined?

"Well..." His thoughts were interrupted, and Linru simply stood up from his seat and looked at the girl in a black kimono: "What do you want?"

Quan noticed that Linru seemed to be thinking about something before, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"

"No." Linru shook his head and responded casually.

For some reason, he didn't want to tell Quan about his next action plan, even if it wasn't long before the entire ninja world might know the news.

"So...can we talk?"

Linru tilted his head and glanced at Quan, smiled, pointed to the chair on one side and said:

"Sit down and talk."

Quan sat down as he was told. Linru took a pot of boiled coffee from the kitchen, poured a cup for Quan and himself, then sat opposite the girl, took a sip, and said with a sigh of relief:

"How's the time going?"

"Very good." Quan said sincerely:

"Huaye took very good care of me, and the female doctors at the institute always took the trouble to check my body. Of course, I know this is for my own good."

Seeing that Linru didn't reply, Quan thought for a moment and asked tentatively: "Lord Linru, are the Gongzhi Kingdom also doing human experiments secretly?"

The word "also" is used very delicately.

Linru glanced at the spring and said slowly:

"Don't equate me with guys like Orochimaru? Even human experiments are conducted according to the "voluntary" rule."

"Experimental subjects are usually volunteers who have been screened at all levels."

"Oh."

As soon as the words came out, Quan seemed to feel something was wrong, and quickly added: "Actually, it doesn't matter even if it's like Orochimaru? I'm just a little curious."

Linru was a little speechless? Seeing this, Quan put down his tea cup, and after thinking about it, asked: "Lord Linru, is the war over?"

Linru said vaguely: "I sent someone to contact Konoha? Maybe the situation will stabilize soon? Anyway, there is no need to worry."

"Konoha?" Izumi frowned slightly and whispered: "With all due respect, if you place your hopes on that rotten village, I'm afraid it will be difficult to solve the current problem."

Linru waved his hands helplessly: "Let's not talk about this, okay?"

"Ok."

Seeing that Linru didn't want to say more, Quanbian also changed the subject wisely: "By the way, when do you plan to move the people back to the capital?"

"Not urgent."

Linru lowered his head and thought for a moment, frowned and looked at Quan and said, "Someone must have asked you to ask me this question, right?"

Quan looked embarrassed? He had no choice but to tell the truth:

"Indeed, the war is over? Those thousands of civilians who took refuge are still stranded in Xingyin Village? This has caused the place to be overcrowded? So..."

Linru snorted coldly and said, "You're used to living a good life, but you can't stand some hardships? The people in this country are more useless than I thought."

"It's just mud that can't hold up the wall."

Quan was keenly aware of the resentment in Linru's tone, and was filled with doubts: "Lord Linru, why do you care so much about the Kingdom of Work?"

This problem has troubled Quan for a long time. In her eyes, Linru is a native Konoha ninja, a native of the Fire Nation. Even if he steals the country in order to form a force,...

Just use the tool, why do you need to be like this...

Putting so much...feeling on it?

Linru was silent for a long time, as if he didn't know how to answer.

Quan cautiously guessed: "Is it someone in this country who is kind to you? That makes you willing to fight to protect this country?"

"it's not true."

Linru took a deep breath, didn't know what he thought of, and smiled to himself.

Then, as if talking to himself, he murmured: "This is just a lonely soul trying to get a piece of familiar soil..."

"It's just self-righteousness and wishful thinking."

Quan's face was full of confusion and he didn't understand what Linru was saying at all.

Linru said to himself: "A certain spirit, a certain will, no matter how much time goes by, no matter how much the world changes, it will never die."

"Human beings' pursuit of fairness and justice will never change, even for me." Linru clenched his fists silently, his eyes shining brightly.

"Most of the property robbed by the blood owl has been invested in the construction of this country, and I just want to see what the future will look like."

"Even though everything is still being explored, even though my efforts may be in vain, even though the country of workers is still too weak to this day, but..."

"She is like a flame. Sooner or later, it will burn out the land of the ninja world. All I have to do is protect her and grow up step by step."

Quan seemed to understand, but a new question arose: "But with your power, if you want to achieve your goal, you shouldn't need to rely on such a small country, right?"

"So, you don't understand."

Linru stood up, looked at the buildings outside the window, and said leisurely:

"Having no power but no corresponding thoughts, you just keep running towards the error of idealism, and in the end, only a miserable hell will be born."

"I have seen such a scene before..."

"Although, it is in a certain history book."

Quan became more and more confused, but Linru seemed to calm down.

He smiled slightly and concluded: "This small country is my experimental ground, used to experiment... some kind of peace concept that is in line with the characteristics of the ninja world?"

"The development of the country takes time, the awakening of the people takes time, the improvement of the system takes time, and I... also need time."

The conversation came to an end here. Quan vaguely seemed to understand the answer to the question, but this was not too important to a ninja.

Linru is a person with ideals and is very concerned about the safety of this remote and small country. Quan feels that it is enough for him to know these things. Other than that...

"Lord Linru, if the war is definitely going to end, then..."

"Are you seeking revenge from Uchiha Itachi?"

Quan nodded silently.

"Wait for now. When I come back, you can leave."

There was a trace of surprise in Quan's eyes: "Come back? What are you going to do?"

Linru grinned slightly: "Do what I should do."
