Jiayue nodded and raised a finger: "Do you know what is the most important skill for a ninja?"

"Uh..." Little Sasuke recalled the homework he had copied for Kayue in those years, he seemed to have seen this question, "Is it 'Complete the task at all costs'?"

"You listened to the nonsense of those guys sitting in the office assigning tasks." Kayue jumped down and patted little Sasuke on the back of the head with his paw,

"I make up some inexplicable things all day long to trick people into dying. Just listen to what those old guys say, but don't take it seriously." Jiayue said in the tone of someone who has experienced it.

Little Sasuke looked confused: "Then what should be the answer?" Obviously that's what was written in the book.

"Of course I ran away." Jiayue waved her hand, although she looked casual, but her tone was very serious, "No matter what time it is, you must take good care of your own life."

Sasuke: "..." But, if you run away because of fear during the mission, you will be punished by the village, right?Of course, Sasuke didn't say that.

Jiayue seemed to see little Sasuke's entanglement, she said: "I didn't say 'escape' because of fear."

"?"

"When you can't beat it, of course you have to run away." Jiayue had a natural expression on her face.She rubbed little Sasuke's head and messed up his hair, "If you don't run away even though you know you can't beat him, then you are simply sending yourself to death."

"But—" Sasuke felt that what he usually heard was not the case.

"Oh——" Jiayue sighed, "Little friend, don't be fooled by the words of 'die calmly and die bravely', you would be foolish to die for nothing."

"Yes, is that so?" Xiao Sasuke felt that his three views had been impacted.

Jiayue nodded, then patted the child on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Of course, if that person thinks that his death is very meaningful, then it's a different matter."

"Then what is the meaning of death?" Obviously, children born in peaceful times have never thought so deeply.

"I don't know, everyone has their own ideas." Jiayue picked up a branch from the ground, "Anyway, for me, it's quite strange to die for illusory beliefs."

"And what about the will of fire?" Kazuki recalled the impassioned speech of the third Hokage in school, and the words that touched a lot of children,

"'Where the leaves dance, so does the fire. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout.'"

Until now, when Jiayue thinks of this sentence, she is full of complaints: "This fire is burning by the side of the tree, and it is still alive. This is not going to stop until the whole tree is burned."

Sasuke nodded thoughtfully.He felt that Jiayue's words seemed very reasonable.But it always feels weird...

What Xiao Sasuke forgot was that Itachi had told him before, the meaning of this sentence is: young people are the hope of the future, and the older generation should trust and protect them.The sacrifice of the older generation is not meaningless, but will inspire the young to become the pillars of the future.

Maybe it's because Kazuki's words were too brainwashing, anyway, Xiao Sasuke, who usually remembers his brother's words clearly, didn't remember it at the moment.

"And what kind of ninja experience, ninja rules..." Jiayue looked disdainful, "I don't know who came up with messy things to deceive children."

Little Sasuke: "..." So, is that why Kazuki doesn't even try to do homework for these subjects by herself?

Although he is still a student of the ninja school, Kazuki, who lives in Konoha, has heard too many ninjas who died for some inexplicable beliefs over the years.

When carrying out the task, he knew that he couldn't beat him, so he just had to fight hard.It's really strange.Although they thought it was okay for the sake of the village and the mission, Jiayue just felt baffled.

"...Well." Little Sasuke lowered his head and tried hard to think about Kazuki's words, then suddenly raised his head and said to Kazuki, "But, didn't Konoha Baiya die because he didn't follow these rules?"

Kayue had also heard about this.It is said that Konoha Baiga, who is known as a genius ninja, was blamed by the people in the village for giving up the mission and choosing to save his companions. In the end, even the rescued companions blamed him in turn.So he finally chose to commit suicide.

"About this matter..." Jiayue leaned casually on a tree, resting her chin on one hand, thinking thoughtfully, "If it was me, I would probably run away..."

"Run, run!?" Sasuke seemed to understand Kazuki's meaning for a while, but he didn't seem to understand.After he reacted, he quickly covered his mouth, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no one else around, he walked up to Jiayue and said to her,

"You can't talk nonsense about defecting, Jiayue." If some people with ulterior motives find out, Jiayue will definitely be in trouble.

Jiayue waved her hand indifferently: "Got it."

"... Oh." Sasuke looked at Kazuki suspiciously.He doubted whether Jiayue had listened or not.However, based on Sasuke's past experience, it should be gone.

Just when Sasuke was in a daze, Kayue suddenly raised a hand: "Get ready—"

"what?"

Jiayue evoked a wicked smile, and threw the branch towards the beehive: "Start!"

"Ahhh! Kayue, what are you doing!" The moment the honeycomb fell to the ground, little Sasuke was stunned.

"Hurry up and run!" Jiayue gently pushed little Sasuke from behind, and then disappeared in place. Sasuke turned his head, only to see the traces of lightning left in place, and countless wasps flying towards him .

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Little Sasuke ran out as fast as he could.Now he understood what Jiayue meant by practicing "escape".

All of a sudden, children were running around in the forest.

"So," Jiayue appeared next to Xiao Sasuke at some point, and it was completely effortless for her to keep up with the child's full speed, "The point is to 'escape', not 'run'." Escape is the goal, she didn't ask Sasuke to practice running!

"What's the difference!" While talking, Xiao Sasuke was stung by a bee rushing over when he was distracted, and then he realized that this is not a bee!This is a wasp!

"Hey——" Jiayue turned to one side, avoiding the flying wasps, "It's so dangerous."

"Ka! Moon! Ah!"

"Take care, little Sasuke!" Kazuki patted Sasuke on the shoulder encouragingly, and then disappeared again.

Sasuke: "..."

The process is tragic, and the ending is also tragic.When little Sasuke finally got rid of the wasps completely, he had already been stung many times.

Sasuke put his hands on his knees and gasped for breath, but he still didn't dare to sit down.After being chased by the hornet all morning, he has a psychological shadow, and he is afraid that the hornet will chase him as soon as he sits down.

"Not bad." With the slightest lightning in the air, Kayue appeared next to little Sasuke.

"Kazuki, you idiot!"

"Ah, don't say that, look, isn't this a proficiency in the three-body art, and a series of skills such as hiding aura and anti-tracking without a teacher?"

"Although you said that..." The child lowered his head, and Jiayue couldn't see his expression.

"Sasuke did a great job." Kayue walked to Sasuke, patted his head with a smile, "Come on, let me pick out the bee stings for you first, then—"

The child suddenly hugged Kayue.

"What's wrong?" Jiayue was at a loss, she didn't know until a tear fell on her hand that the child was crying.

"Don't, don't cry." Jiayue was really confused now, she couldn't even coax adults, let alone children, "Okay, okay, I was wrong this time, I and Sasuke apologizes. Don't cry, okay?" Kayue ran one hand down Sasuke's hair, trying to comfort him.

The child sobbed: "I thought I was almost, almost, dying..."

"No, no, no." Kayue knelt down, put her hands on the child's shoulders, "I've been watching Sasuke, how could Sasuke be stung to death by mere bees?"

The child didn't speak, just hugged her and cried aggrievedly.

"Okay, I'll help Sasuke deal with the wound first, and I'll treat you to lunch later as an apology, okay?" Only then did Jiayue realize that children who grew up in peaceful times are real children, what they need is protection, and Not tough training.

"……Um."

Looking at the child who just reached her waist, Jiayue helped him treat the wound, and said seriously: "I won't let Sasuke use such a dangerous practice method in the future, okay?"

Unexpectedly, the child was silent for a long time, and unexpectedly said: "...don't."

"Eh?" Jiayue paused in her hands, and looked at the child with some puzzlement.Immediately, she was stunned. Although he was a child with no ambitions at all, there was a firm light in his eyes.

Just after crying, the child still couldn't speak fluently. While hiccupping, he looked at Jiayue with wet eyes: "If, hiccup, you can become stronger, hiccup, this kind of practice doesn't matter, hiccup."

Why do you want to become stronger?Jiayue didn't understand.She couldn't even see even a trace of ambition for power in the child's eyes.Is it just because you want to surpass your brother and get your father's praise?

Jiayue looked at the child, remained silent for a long time, and finally smiled helplessly: "I understand. But if Sasuke keeps crying, I will be very distressed."

"This time it was an accident!" Being chased by a hornet was probably the most dangerous thing Xiao Zuozhu had encountered since he was so old. He didn't even know that Jiayue was by his side at the time, so it was not unreasonable to be so afraid.

"Yes, yes, crybaby." Jiayue casually treated the child.

"I'm not a crybaby! This time it's Kazuki—"

"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Kazuki interrupted Sasuke's words first, with a perfunctory tone as always.After fastening the bandage on Xiao Sasuke's arm, Kayue clapped her hands and began to fight, "How about it, what do you want for lunch?"

Little Sasuke looked at his arm: "Kazuki's bandage is so ugly."
