Konoha Steady King

Chapter 31 Promotion

A few days later, Hayama received a promotion order at the headquarters of the Konoha camp.After the ANBU who passed on the promotion order left, Hayama handed the promotion order to Hatake Sakumo with an inexplicable smile on his face.

Hatake Sakumo took the promotion order and glanced at it a few times. After roughly understanding the content, he threw it on the desk, squinted his eyes, sat on the chair with his arms folded, his face obscured.

After some tea time, Hatake Sakumo clapped his hands, and immediately a ninja covered in a cloak jumped out, formed a seal with his hands, and opened a soundproof barrier.

"What do you think?", Hatake Sakumo asked.

The eyebrowless Hayama frowned, tapped his thigh rhythmically with his fingers, and said: "Obviously, the senior management suspected your motives, and then they considered promoting me to Jonin."

"My motivation?"

"Your motivation for teaching ninjutsu."

Hatake Sakumo, who felt that everything was in the dark, just waved his hand and told Hayama to just say what he had to say and let it go, instead of wasting his brain cells by hiding it.

Hayama feels quite helpless, and there is nothing he can do about Hatake Sakumo's insensitive political sense. People always pay attention to killing you with a knife and not giving you a chance to BBLL. They rely on strength to make a living, not mouth.

This thing seems simple, but if you look deeper than the surface, the high-level purpose is worth pondering.He was promoted early and late, but he was promoted when Hayama publicly used Hatake Sakumo's secret technique for the first time. It couldn't be a coincidence, so there was only one possibility.

Thinking of this, Hayama opened his mouth and spit out three words: "Uchiha."

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo shook his head repeatedly, completely denying Hayama's speculation, and slowly said something that shocked Hayama.

"Hayama, I know what you are thinking. You climbed up from the bottom and think that us family ninjas are only interested in profit." He stretched out his hand to interrupt Hayama who was about to speak, and continued to speak his mind.

"Your heart is full of resentment, resentment for your origin, resentment for the war, and resentment for the cold-bloodedness of the higher-ups. Of course you have the right to be resentful, but when there is only resentment in the heart of a ninja, resentment will breed revenge. After this, the ninja will All the resentment in the heart will turn into revenge, the power will be out of control, and people will take pleasure in killing, which is very dangerous."

After a pause, Hatake Sakumo took a sip of water under Hayama's gaze and said: "I'm not an alarmist. You are still a child to me. Although you hide it well, it is inevitable to be exposed to it for a long time. Exposed. You should learn to love, accept, and love everyone who helps you, even if they are utilitarian; accept your own insignificance, accept your own mediocrity, and accept this unfair world. Only the heart is full of With love, you can become a truly strong person; the so-called ninja is not a person who masters powerful ninjutsu, but a person who has strong strength and can still accept those who are weak and try to use his own ability to change him."

After hearing this, Hayama fell into deep thought. After coming to the ninja world, he was indeed full of resentment for everything he had suffered. He only loved his mother and himself, and other than that, he did not truly trust anyone.Ye Shan can no longer remember when in his previous life, he who liked to call friends to drink and chat with friends, became taciturn; he couldn't remember when in his previous life, when he was able to live in poverty and enjoy life even though he lived at the bottom, he became utilitarian.Maybe it was when Hayama personally killed a bandit who had done all kinds of evil for the first time and watched him stop breathing in his arms; or maybe it was when he cried helplessly while holding the body of his companion during the first mission; It's possible that the first time he betrayed his conscience to survive, Hayama couldn't remember it at all.

He was like an unborn shark still inside his mother's body, eating his brothers and sisters without hesitation in order to gain life.

The most terrifying thing is that Hayama feels that everything he does is right. If he wants to survive in this ninja world, he believes that he only needs to have strength, not love in his heart.Ninjas are tools of killing, Hayama has always believed in this.

But Hatake Sakumo's words awakened the sleeping humanity in his heart, and he began to torture his soul. Was he really wrong? In this cold world, could there be love among cold ninjas?

However, Hayama's mature mind allowed Hayama to discover the fatal flaw in Hatake Sakumo's statement. In this ninja world where the mission is overwhelming, too much love will become a steel knife hanging above the head, and it may fall off one day. Come down.

Hatake Sakumo noticed that Hayama's eyes were gradually becoming firmer, and knew that the enlightenment had failed, and said: "The deal between Uchiha and me is very simple. They asked me to appoint a jounin to guide your ninjutsu practice. But Hayama, From you, I saw the shadow of myself when I was young, so I taught you the secret technique. I am not saying this to win over you, but to tell you that I, Sakumo Hatake, am not a mercenary person, and I do not You’re treated like a tool, nothing more.”

"No matter what the people in the village think of me, I have no regrets. Please leave. We should not meet again in the future."

Hayama opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know where to start. He could only silently salute Hatake Sakumo, who had his back turned to him, and then walked out.

From that day on, Hatake Sakumo and Baiyun Yeshan really never had any intersection again, until that incident happened.

Two completely different worldviews make it impossible for Hayama and Hatake Sakumo to continue to get along. This is the sadness of adults. They can get along with each other with a smile every day, but it does not prevent them from cutting off their relationship because of different obsessions in their hearts. .

Two different obsessions determine that Hayama's path is destined to be different from that of Hatake Sakumo. He is still the same person and will never change. What he wants to do will not change in 1 years.

.....................

Being promoted to Jonin failed to bring any joy to Hayama, but made him extremely sad. The soul from another world has not been understood until now, but he could not talk about it, and it was so painful that it was stuck in his heart.

Hayama returned to the tent and fell asleep.He needed to return to the peaceful world that he had missed for a long time in his dream. Even if he had to pick up a knife to kill people when he opened his eyes, he didn't care at all.

The attentive Minato noticed something strange about Hayama, and without saying anything, he quietly walked out of the tent, leaving Hayama a quiet space.

Hayama, who slept in the afternoon until the next morning, opened his eyes.The long sleep made his eyes slightly uncomfortable when he saw the light, and it took him a long time to get used to it.The old look returned to his eyes. Yeshan was about to go out for morning exercise, but was stopped by the feeling of hunger. In desperation, he had to go to eat first and then do morning exercise.

The days passed by Hayama eating, sleeping, and fighting Sand Ninja. From that day on, he became even more cold-blooded and ruthless. Every Sand Ninja who died in his hands was killed with one blow.Gradually, Hayama, who teamed up with Minato to kill Setsuna, was called a cold killer, which made him laugh and cry.

Can a ninja be called a ninja if he's not ruthless? These people should go out and promote it. Being a ninja is really a derogation of their talents.

..........

In Sand Hidden Village, a meeting on how to end the war is being held.

The Third Kazekage sat in the first seat, with a red-haired young ninja standing behind him.Chiyo and her brother sat to the left of the Kazekage, and behind her stood her son and daughter-in-law.These people are the top leaders of Sand Hidden Village and hold absolute power in the Kingdom of Wind.

Chiyo glanced at the Sandaikazekage, whose face was ashen as water, and motioned for his brother to speak to break the awkwardness on the field.

Ebizo curled his lips helplessly, cleared his throat, picked up a report and said: "Master Kazekage, this is the battle report from last month. I will report..."

The Third Kazekage waved his hand impatiently. He was really not in the mood to listen to reports that deceived low-level ninjas and daimyo. He said directly: "Everyone here is very clear about the current situation of the village. Sunagakure Village has reached the point where no matter what, It’s time to end the war, but how to end it, Chiyo, tell me.”

Chiyo, who was named, said: "I suggest organizing another wave of large-scale battles to gain an advantage in negotiations."

Chiyo's words were exactly what the Third Kazekage wanted. Negotiating a surrender after defeat and negotiating after a victory were two different things. Although Sunagakure Village was forced into a desperate situation, it could still be done if they fought again.But when his eyes glanced at the two people standing behind Chiyo, his heart couldn't help but become gloomy.

In the Second Ninja War, Sunagakure Village successfully captured most of the territory of the Land of Rain at the beginning of the war and defeated the Konoha Ninja Army twice. The situation was excellent.However, due to his greed and rashness, he brought Sunagakure Village into a disadvantage and even lost the Kingdom of Rain that had not yet been digested. This made the condemnation in the village increasingly high.Even the daimyo sent envoys to hold him accountable, threatening to replace him after the war.The Third Kazekage felt a sense of crisis. He looked around and after careful screening, he found that only Chiyo's son was qualified to inherit the Kazekage's position, which made him murderous.

Thinking of this, the Third Kazekage said: "After the war, I will take the blame and resign, giving my seat to young people. In the next final battle, I will ask Chiyo to go all out to show the majesty of Sunagakure."

A joyful expression flashed across Chiyo's face, but she quickly calmed down and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "As a member of Sunagakure Village, it is our duty to fight for the village. The puppet army will be led by my son himself." Please feel free to lead Kazekage-sama into the battle."

Hearing that Chiyo didn't mention a word about his abdication, the Third Kazekage sneered inwardly, "Don't blame me for being unjust if you are unkind!"It's just a borrowed sword to kill people. If Sarutobi Hiruzen can use it, I can use it too!

After the discussion, several people walked out of the conference room with smiles on their faces, showing a scene of high-level unity.

Dirty is not a unique product of Konoha Village. Under the temptation of power, it is everywhere.
