Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja

"December 33, the 12rd year of Konoha. Tonight's meal is especially sumptuous because I will be on the battlefield again tomorrow."

"It seems that the village's combat power is gradually becoming strained. I, a newly promoted Chunin, was appointed as a squad leader. You know, I have no leadership experience, which makes me very stressed."

"I have to say, the standard vest is comfortable to wear, and it also makes me look a little handsome."

"For some reason, I couldn't sleep tonight. As soon as I closed my eyes, all I could see were the hideous faces of my teammates before they died. Especially Da Mu's face, which seemed to be engraved in my mind."

"Ohki died in my arms. He had many wounds on his body. The fatal wound was a Thousand Bones shot in the throat, which made him unable to speak before he died. However, he wrote the word "home" on the ground with his finger."

"I know he's missing his family. Da Mu graduated a few years earlier than me. He was a quiet man. I didn't expect him to die in an idle mission. I can only say that it's fate."

"We were leaving in two hours. I couldn't bear to see my mother and sister's reluctant expressions, so I left home before daybreak."

…………

"On February 35, the 2th year of Konoha, three of my subordinates died in the Land of Rain. For more than a year, we have been together day and night, and it is no longer a relationship of superior and subordinate. In the intervals between battles, I even fantasized about opening a barbecue restaurant with them after the war. As for ninjas... to be honest, I already hate them."

"For several years, I stayed on the battlefield almost non-stop. There, I couldn't eat, drink, or sleep well. My mental state was extremely bad. I woke up in the middle of the night several times. I even began to envy my comrades who died in battle. At least they no longer had to worry, sleep in the open, or fight with weapons at the risk of their lives."

"Oh, by the way, I killed a ninja from the same village because he disobeyed orders from his superiors and watched my companions die in battle."

"When my ninja sword pierced through that arrogant face that exuded disdain, I inexplicably felt a sense of pleasure, and of course a little bit of fear. I didn't want to kill him, after all, his last name is Sarutobi, but he shouldn't have laughed at my dead companions, even if they were indeed weak."

"That night, I ate alone and slept alone. My companions were still around, but they couldn't speak to me, and they couldn't enjoy the jerky they found from the Sarutobi ninja."

"Since that day, I became silent and rarely mentioned the Will of Fire. I began to carefully observe the words and deeds of every ninja in the camp, but I saw nothing but numbness."

"I found an interesting person, a Genin named Baiyun Yeshan, who is about ten years old. He looks thin and small, and there is nothing special about him, but his eyes are very sharp, as if he can see into people's hearts, which makes me a little interested."

"You can't judge a person by his appearance. Baiyun Yeshan is young but very opinionated. He is also very sensitive to danger during missions, but he doesn't care much about the completion of the mission. He only cares about his own life."

"I once had a close encounter with Ye Shan. It was one night when I met him while taking a shit in a forest. But we just nodded to each other and didn't say anything. It was a bit awkward."

"I found that there are more and more Anbu ninjas in the camp. These guys never talk to anyone. They just hide in the dark with notebooks and observe everyone."

"Haha, the Anbu ninjas are not here to join the war. Their mission is to find those who spread anti-war speeches. Several people have been taken away. I don't know what fate awaits them."

"Those people were actually executed!? Why could the Anbu ninja kill them without mercy? They just complained a few words, and this is considered treason!?"

"Haha, I understand. Hahaha, damn Will of Fire. They said nice things like companions are your second life and you can't abandon them at any time or no matter how bad the situation is. It's all bullshit. Otherwise, those people wouldn't have died in their hands anyway."

"What the hell is this about fighting for the village, fighting for the next generation of the village? If we keep fighting, the next generation will all die. Where is the next generation? I don't know what the top leaders were thinking. They actually ordered dozens of five or six-year-old children to join the war. Are they crazy? Haha, that must be the case."

"December 35, 12th year of Konoha. Today, I went on a mission with that Baiyun Yeshan. If he hadn't kicked me and made me fall, that glowing Senbon would have pierced my throat."

"I am very grateful to him. Although I am the captain, he saved my life. I began to deliberately apply for him to join the team because I felt that this person was not simple."

"Damn it, those idiots in the mission department, are they out of their minds? They actually sent me, a Chunin, to carry out a stealth assassination mission. Fortunately, Ye Shan was smart and deliberately let the team encounter several Sand Ninjas and killed them. In this way, we had no choice but to give up the mission because of the injuries of the team's combatants. Ye Shan, you are really a genius."

"I've become more and more dependent on Ye Shan. I'll ask for his opinion on every decision during a mission, even though I'm the captain. The other two idiots actually look down on me. Haha, you two are lucky to have met Ye Shan, otherwise you would have died three or four times. You don't know how to appreciate what you have."

"Ye Shan is really a genius. Not only is his talent for learning ninjutsu far superior to mine, but his ability to carry out missions is even more beyond my reach. The only shortcoming is that the completion of the mission is not optimistic, and it has already caused the reprimand of the ninja above. Haha, as long as I can survive, I don't care whether the mission is completed well or not."

"I don't want to fight for the damn Will of Fire anymore, because the Will of Fire is just a trick to deceive the students of the ninja school. Nothing is more important than being alive, even if it means being humiliated by the Byakugan."

"Unfortunately, my two-year subordinate died in battle. Due to the shortage of manpower, I had to form a two-man team with Hayama to carry out the mission."

"Today I asked Ye Shan to be the captain but he disagreed. I was very unhappy."

"Today I asked Ye Shan to be the captain but he didn't agree. I'm very unhappy."

"Today I asked Ye Shan to be the captain but he didn't agree. I'm very unhappy."

"I couldn't stand it anymore, so I started calling him captain regardless of whether he agreed or not. I also told him that we should talk about our own affairs. You call me Shancheng Chen and I call you captain, so that neither of us would be delayed."

"I feel like I've found a great leader. Captain Hayama is truly a god. He was able to keep us alive. I really want to see the Iwagakure get so angry."

At the end of the 35th year of Konoha, Yamashiro Tatsu met a very young ninja. From then on, his fate changed a little, but he didn't know or didn't realize it.

The will of fire that he once regarded as his guiding principle was trampled under his feet, and going back alive became Shancheng Chen's new belief.

For this reason, he was willing to call a Genin the captain. After all, the position of captain should be held by the capable one.

In this way, under the leadership of Ye Shan, he successfully lived until the end of the Second Ninja World War, and even embezzled a sum of money to open two stores in the village. The lives of his mother and sister also became better and better.

"I think that in a few years I will be able to retire, and it would be nice to marry a wife and give my mother some grandchildren to take care of."

This passage was written by Yamashiro Tatsumi before he went to the Water Kingdom to carry out a mission. The words reveal his yearning for a better life.
