Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

"From the perspective of Sunagakure, as a tool for Sunagakure to exchange for peace, facing someone like you who may become a big trouble in the future, I know very well how to maximize my value..."

Ye Cang said quietly.

Kakashi suddenly felt an indescribable bitterness in his throat.

That's why she did it to herself.

Perhaps I had already had this thought when I entered Kirigakure...

This is a proposition that cannot be told whether it is right or wrong. The dream of so-called "peace" seems extremely naive at this moment.

And she has always known it.

Perhaps he has always been clear that he exists as a bargaining chip for the Sunagakure to exchange for peace.

And all of this is just to achieve better results before one's death...

"To fight endlessly for the good of the village, this is how ninjas exist."

I vaguely remember that the woman in front of me said this in the noisy rain, with a hint of sadness in her words.

Kakashi also remembered that he firmly denied this at the time.

But listening to it now, I have to admit the truth in it.

For the sake of the village, sacrifices had to be made.

This is how ninjas live.

This is true for Rin and Obito as well.

The same is true for Ye Cang in front of me...

And isn't it the same for Kakashi?

This is the world of ninja.

These are the rules and order of the ninja world.

"But you said you regretted it, didn't you?" Kakashi suddenly looked up and looked at Ye Cang with burning eyes, as if trying to force an answer out of him.

"Yes, it was not until the last moment of my life that I realized that I was actually quite afraid of death. After all, I couldn't imagine how painful it would be..."

A slightly self-deprecating smile appeared on Ye Cang's lips.

“Everything I’ve experienced plays out in my mind like a revolving lantern.

"Those regrets, big and small, have become reasons for me to regret..."

Ye Cang turned sideways, lifted the quilt, then dropped his ankles off the bed and stood up slowly.

Compared with the previous attire that was convenient for movement, the attire now is the common boudoir attire for women.

The skirt that almost drags on the ground and the tight belt around the waist do not expose any skin, but outline the woman's graceful curves to the fullest.

This outfit is really eye-catching.

But the beautiful woman who kept approaching him made Kakashi feel a little uneasy...

"But now, there's no point in regretting it."

Looking at the flicker in Ye Cang's eyes, Kakashi vaguely sensed that something was wrong, frowned and took two steps back.

But these two steps are obviously not enough to create distance.

"Kirigakure will find out sooner or later. If we violate the agreement, then we will be under the threat of Kirigakure and Iwagakure, and the situation of Sunagakure will become precarious."

"And my life was sacrificed for the peace of Sunagakure..."

Ye Cang's eyes flashed, and the word "sacrifice" was deliberately stuck in his throat.

With a flick of his wrist, he pulled out the kunai from Kakashi's waist, reversed it and stabbed it straight towards his own neck!

Although I don't want to, I have no choice...

If this secret deal fails, the threat it poses to Sunagakure will undoubtedly be fatal.

In order to complete the transaction, she must die here!

This is the 'rule' she must follow, and it is also the only 'solution' at hand...

The next moment, blood spread out from the kunai.

But it didn't come from her.

Looking at the spreading blood, Ye Cang fell into a trance for a moment.

"Indeed, in the ninja world, those who don't follow the rules and regulations are called trash."

"But those who don't cherish their companions are worse than trash!"

Kakashi said coldly, and stretched out his hand to press against Ye Cang's wrist, while the base of his palm firmly blocked the blade of the kunai...

Bright blood-red color spread over the kunai, slender wrists and delicate knuckles.

Kakashi looked at her with cold eyes.

This was the only point he absolutely disagreed with.

Using fellow villagers as a compromise for peace is not only naive, but also stupid.

"In my eyes, there is no need to follow the rules of abandoning your companions."

Ye Cang miscalculated.

She never expected Kakashi to stop her...

"Oh, big sister!"

A cry of surprise came.

Mei Terumi put her arm around Ye Cang's waist, and while the latter was distracted, she staggered and pulled her back to the bed.

"I worked so hard to save you, but you just wanted to end it all without even asking a single question. This is so irresponsible!

"Let me have a good look at it!"

The girl angrily pulled Ye Cang's hand over and wiped the blood off it, feeling a little distressed in her heart.

"I'm interested in pretty older sisters" and so on, it's not a lie...

We are no longer enemies, so why should we worry about the future?

"I...I'm fine. Please bandage his wound first."

Ye Cang barely came back to his senses and muttered.

Just now, when she drew out the kunai, of course she couldn't hold it at the tip of the blade. In the end, it was stopped, so naturally she didn't get hurt.

So it is obvious who the blood on the palm came from.

But why would he do this...

"Oh, don't worry, sister. He can handle this kind of thing well by himself."

Mei Terumi smiled and glanced at Kakashi meaningfully, but she had no intention of getting up and going forward to help treat the wound.

I just watched Kakashi walk to the side and rummage through the box, and soon after, he wrapped layers of gauze around his palms...

"I don't agree with sacrificing companions. It must be wrong for Sunagakure to do this." Kakashi said coldly.

"For a ninja, missions and rules are certainly important, but to achieve this by abandoning your companions is putting the cart before the horse..."

There was a soundless silence.

Ye Cang did not refute this.

In fact, she wouldn't want to do that either.

It is undoubtedly a shame to sacrifice one's companions to achieve one's goals.

But what about from the perspective of 'shadow'?

Is this a decision that has to be made after weighing the pros and cons?

'Clap clap--'

The sound of crisp applause suddenly rang out.

I don't know when, but a figure was already standing in front of the door of the wooden house.

"Ahahaha Kakashi, I didn't expect you to have changed so much. It seems that I have failed in my duty as a teacher!"
