[Comprehensive master Naruto] The daimyo of the country of fire is in a panic

From Kinoshita Hanjiro's confused babble, we pieced together his ordinary life.

His ancestors had a lot of fertile land and were considered to be a wealthy family. By his father's generation, he relied on his physical strength to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield. He was promoted to a samurai from Ashigaru, married a well-matched wife, and gave birth to ten children. Boy, he's the youngest.

As a result, his father died in a war against the Kingdom of Rain.After another drought, ten children died of illness or starvation. His mother sent him to the Kinoshita family in the same village and left with his brothers and sisters.For more than 40 years, he never heard from them again.

He was the only adopted son of the Kinoshita family. Not only did he send him to the dojo to study, he even let him read a few books and learn some words. He also introduced him to a smart daughter-in-law. He had long regarded the Kinoshita couple as his biological fathers. His mother served him well, and his daughter-in-law also obeyed her parents-in-law in everything, and gave birth to two fat boys for him.The days are about to get more prosperous.

Civil strife broke out in the Land of Fire, the Hosokawa family fell, and he was conscripted into the army. Today he fought with the Kubota family, and tomorrow he fought for the Kubota family...

Then they met the Muto family who were heading south.

After the defeat, he fled back to his hometown. The fertile farmland of the Kinoshita family was no longer there, and the house was burned down by the soldiers. Only his haggard wife, a few corpses swept by grass, and a daughter who was waiting for food were left.

He took his family to hide in the mountains and never went out to fight again.Later, the Muto family finally unified the Fire Country. He returned to his hometown and proved himself to the new lord with his sword skills from a sea of ​​blood.The new lord was very optimistic about him, but he had long since given up his intention to serve as an official. He returned home as a wild samurai and continued to cultivate Kutanda Susukada. He found a reliable young man for his daughter and watched them get married.

My wife passed away on the third day after her daughter got married, and she still had a smile on her face when she left.

A few years later, his grandson was born. He named the newborn "Jinwu" to express the family's expectations for him. His daughter and son-in-law were very happy and they entertained everyone in the village.

The rule of the Muto family is not much different from before. After paying taxes every year, the Kinoshita family still has some leftover food.He often counted the money he got in exchange, planning to let his grandson learn writing and kendo so that he could arrange a good marriage for him in the future.

The battle between wind and fire broke all his thoughts.The military service account was distributed, every household provided food and troops, the son-in-law died in a distant war, the daughter became sick in bed due to longing, the grandson also contracted the disease, and many years of savings were confiscated and used for military purposes.The situation of the surrounding neighbors is not much better, and they cannot borrow money or food at all.Three or four farmers he knew starved to death. At the last moment, he did not help them, and the little money he had was used to hire doctors.

Before the doctor arrived, his daughter died in front of his eyes. It was unclear whether she died of starvation or illness.The grandson's condition had not improved in the spring, and the last bit of Chen rice at home was fed to him two days ago.

Kinoshita Hanjiro, a true samurai, after losing all his family property, reluctantly sold the sword that had been with him for many years for the sake of his only relative, bent his spine, and tried to exchange for some rice from the rice house clerk.

I didn't know how to face him.

The chaotic world of the Warring States period caused too many such tragedies, and I have witnessed countless of them in my short 13-year life.There are not so many sad love stories in the world like "The Tale of Genji", there are not so many famous generals and celebrities who compose tragic epics of "People of the World", and there are not many tragic heroes in the original Naruto who dare to rebel against society after being played by evil forces. There are only Thousands of nameless people who are gradually suffocating under the pressure.

Is it his fault?Is it my fault?Is it the fault of any specific person?

Samurai can find their enemies, use fighting to paralyze themselves, and tell themselves that everything is the enemy's fault; ninjas can find blood feuds, use fighting to numb themselves, and tell themselves that everything is the enemy's fault; nobles and ministers can find political opponents, and use fighting to numb them Tell yourself that everything is the fault of the other party's attempt to fight for power.

The eyes of the ninjas and the surnames were gloomy, their faces were as cold as iron, and they had no teenage impulses at all.No one cries, the tears have long been drained by the numbness in the heart again and again. The blurred tearful eyes will only make people make mistakes in the battle and lead to death.

Isn’t Madara and Obito’s Eye of the Moon plan in the original work a kind of paralysis?Is it called peace to make people indulge in fantasy, deprive them of all contact with reality, and fall into a dead world that is stagnant and unable to develop?Compared with it, although Nagato's nuclear deterrence plan has vaguely taken the wrong path of terrorism, it has at least made efforts to change various shortcomings of the great power system.

The results of it?With a wave of Kishimoto's hand, the hero who wanted to bring about the dawn of the world was easily paralyzed by a young man's lies and empty words. For many years after that, the Land of Rain still struggled to survive in the cracks between the three major countries.

Has the Hyuga clan’s caged bird problem been solved?After the destruction of the Uchiha group, will the residual poison of clan society no longer exist?Zabuza and Haku's death are so poignant, have we forgotten who was behind the Wave No Country Bridge incident?They are monopoly capitalists!If one Kado dies, won't the other chaebols continue to cause trouble to the world?

I can't numb myself, and I can't just sink into troubled times.No matter how heavy the mountain is, people can overturn it. No matter how long the road is, people can still walk it. I have to do something.

"You said food was confiscated, right?" But the food and grass for this western expedition should have been mobilized westward layer by layer from Wuyu, Keyakihara, Kanyu and other places, and there should not be food gaps in various places.

"Yes, there wasn't much left after paying the annual payment..."

"Have you even harvested the seeds?" No matter how much the levy is, we should still leave seeds for farmers to ensure production in the coming year, so that there will be more grain to collect in the future.

"If enough seeds are left, everyone can hope to survive for a few more months."

"Your son-in-law died fighting for his country, but he didn't get any pension, right?"

Kinoshita Hanjiro couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Did he 'die for his country'? He didn't accomplish anything. He just went into battle and took a few shots, but he was swept back with straw. The reward for transporting the body was already paid, so how could he have any more?" What's a 'pension'?"

There will be.

I waited for him to finish laughing, then slowly said: "I saved your grandson's life, don't you want to repay me?"

The ninjas looked at me in shock, Kanan and Ranmaru raising their eyebrows.

Without saying a word, Kinoshita Hanjiro knelt on the ground and took off his shirt, revealing his yellow belly. He drew his knife and stabbed his abdomen.

Hashirama immediately activated Wood Escape to restrain him.Although Kinoshita only had a bamboo sword in his hand, his determination to die also made him use extra force, and the bamboo blade pricked a bruise on his skin.

"Country warrior Kinoshita Hanjiro, I am willing to die for you!" He roared loudly, and dust fell from the roof.

So you want to use your blood to prove the glory of the warrior to me?This approach is indeed very in line with social trends. Once he succeeds in committing seppuku, it will add luster to my reputation and his reputation if word spreads.

But I'm sorry, I'm not a samurai at heart: "I want you to repay me alive, what use are dead people to me? Can I raise Kingo for you? Can I give him kendo lessons and cultural lessons to talk about as a wife?"

I took the bamboo knife away from his hand: "You can only work while you are alive. Work diligently for the happiness of yourself and your loved ones. There is no shame. If you can live well, I will bring you a good knife next time."

Kinoshita Hanjiro's lips trembled and his eyes were moist, but he tensed up under our gaze and did not shed tears after all.He didn't say anything about acknowledging me as master. He was a subordinate of my retainer. Our status was too different. According to social rules, he didn't deserve to mention me.

I wouldn't let someone older than my grandparents work for me. In fact, I would rather develop subordinates than control slaves.

"Kinoshita, I want you to help me contact people in the same situation as you in the surrounding villages, including samurai, peasants under samurai jurisdiction, people from Sobo villages, homesteaders and tenant farmers. They will come to your farm to discuss matters on the tenth day of this month. You can't come. But if you are willing, you are responsible for recording their names and subordinates. I will then go to see the head of your family and issue orders to him and the surrounding rich people. They will not stop you.

"If you understand, go and feed your grandson porridge, he's awake."
