Chapter 301
If a ninja’s forbearance is broken, how much influence will it have on the ninja?
Kato Yukaze has never had a specific and clear answer to this question.
Now Kato Yukaze knows, his good friend and good partner Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo, used his life to tell Kato Yukaze the answer to this question.
Kato Yukaze always thought that he knew Hatake Sakumo, just like a few days ago he thought that Hatake Sakumo had no desire to die.
In the heart of Hatake Sakumo, his own ninja's reputation is above all else, even higher than his own life, ninja's reputation, just like his fame in Ninja World’s White Fang short blade, should be What is pure and innocent, is holy, and is a symbol of forbearance in his heart.
White Fang short blade can be stained with the blood of the enemy. That is the medal of Hatake Sakumo's battle for Konoha in Ninja World, but the White Fang cannot be splashed by Konoha himself. Dirty and smelly blood water pollution, once contaminated with blood spilled by one's own person, White Fang becomes unclean for Hatake Sakumo.
Backboard, backed by one's own compatriots, by the village to which he is loyal, is the blood that destroys Hatake Sakumo's heart Chunin Dao.
In order to protect companions, give up mission.
This is a Hidden Leaf Village that emphasizes the importance of companions. It seems that it is simply not a big mistake.
After all, the burning of Will of Fire has always been achieved by the dedication of countless companions.
Now, Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo was cast aside by the whole villagers for protecting his companions, and finally committed suicide. The flames burning with the meaning of fire seemed to be extinguished by the wind, but It seems that it burns more vigorously after the wind blows.
After Kato Yukaze received the news that Hatake Sakumo committed suicide, he rushed to Hatake Clan as quickly as possible, and met Hatake Sakumo in the living room where the two of them had a good chat a week ago. A corpse falling to the floor.
Standing in front of Hatake Sakumo corpse, it was the seven-year-old Hatake Kakashi who had just completed his mission outside Hidden Leaf Village and returned home.
Kakashi said nothing, holding his father Hatake Sakumo's famous ninja sword White Fang in his hand. On the blade of the White Fang clean white as snow, there are dark red-haired blood stains.
Hatake Sakumo used White Fang to commit suicide. Kato Yukaze does not know the specific idea of Hatake Sakumo's suicide. Perhaps for him, since the White Fang in his hand has been contaminated by his own blood, then Rinse it thoroughly with the blood of his Hatake Sakumo.
"Kato sama, I father him..."
Kakashi heard the noise behind him and found out that it was father’s friend Kato Yukaze. After only half a sentence, he choked up Can't say it anymore.
Although he did not cry, but Kato Yukaze clearly saw teardrops in Kakashi's eye sockets, and there were also large tears on the mask that he wears on his face all the year round.
Even if it has been Hidden Leaf Village Chunin for more than a year, for the seven-year-old Kakashi, he saw with his own eyes the father, who is usually regarded as the hero of the village, committed suicide in his Right now, this blow is still too big.
Be aware that when Kakashi returned home from the mission yesterday, his father Hatake Sakumo looked normal. He greeted him with a smile, patted his shoulder and said that he was the pride of Hatake Clan, and asked him to The glory of Hatake Clan goes on to inheritance.
"Kakashi..."
Kato Yukaze wanted to reach out and touch Kakashi's hair, just like Kakashi in childhood, as Kato Yukaze often does, but he eventually patted his shoulder .
"Sorrow."
Kato Yukaze couldn't say any words of comfort. Thousands of words stuck in his chest, and finally only said two words of sorrow.
Kato Yukaze was still a little unacceptable about Hatake Sakumo’s death. He thought that banning the rumors circulating in Hidden Leaf Village would prevent Hatake Sakumo’s suicide. For this reason, he went to talk with Sarutobi Hiruzen. , Go to Shimura Danzo to confront each other without hesitation.
But as everyone knows, once some injury is caused, the scar will stay in the victim's heart forever.
Through the mask on Kakashi's face, Kato Yukaze saw Kakashi's lips squirming. He was very confused when he saw that he was young. He didn't know why the father who had always been a hero in the village committed suicide.
For the rumors about his father Hatake Sakumo circulated in the village some time ago, Kakashi knows that Kakashi’s nindo from his father Hatake Sakumo since he was a child is to protect the companions who get along day and night, and at the same time mission It is also the first meaning of the existence of ninja.
Now that there is a conflict between protecting his companion and completing the mission, his father chose to protect his companion, but he was forced to commit suicide by the rumors in the village. Kakashi didn’t know whether he had forbearance or not. significance.
Kakashi raised the White Fang short blade in his hand and stared at the dark red-haired blood on it, hoping to find the answer in the blood of father.
On the white blade, father’s fresh blood red is very bright, Kakashi even feels a little red and dazzling, he can see from the blood traces the specifics when the White Fang short blade pierced the father’s body Trajectory.
Unfortunately, these bright reds do not tell Kakashi the answer he wants.
"Kato sama, is my father a Konoha hero?"
Kakashi picked up the flannel used by father to maintain the White Fang from father Hatake Sakumo’s corpse and wiped it gently Remove the blood stains on the blade of White Fang, just like his father has done thousands of times.
"Forget it, father Hatake Sakumo, Konoha's White Fang, have always been the heroes of Hidden Leaf Village."
Kato Yukaze looked Kakashi in his hands to restore the white and bright White Fang in the past Short blade, when I heard Kakashi's question, he answered without thinking.
"Really? I also think that my father is the hero of Hidden Leaf Village. Even if he committed suicide for this reason, I still have this view."
Kaka I waved the White Fang short blade in my hand, pulled a knife, and then handed the White Fang to Kato Yukaze, and then asked: "Kato sama, tell me about my father's past, you know his former temperer , Never tell me this, I want to listen."
"Hatake Sakumo, Konoha 13, Konoha Hatake Clan clansman, good at using White Light Chakra Sabre, with the White Fang short blade in hand. The enemy became terror-stricken at the news. In the Second Shinobi World War, the name Ninja World was reverberated..."
Kato Yukaze reached out to take the White Fang short blade in Kakashi's hand, and began to detail Tell about Hatake Sakumo.
Summarize from the life, talking about the two people in the Academy, talking about the Second Shinobi World War side by side, talking about Hatake Sakumo recently faced in Hidden Leaf Village lies and slanders Uzumaki.
Kato Yukaze didn’t conceal it, and told Kakashi about the information he knew. He didn’t add details while telling a story. He said that his subjective judgment was just like stating the situation of unrelated personnel. Tell Kakashi the same.
Including Shimura Danzo’s order that contributed to the public opinion in Hidden Leaf Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen, as Hokage, did not intervene, and Kato Yukaze told Kakashi about these situations.
