Konoha's strongest bug

Chapter 24 Dividing Apples

During the meal, Yahiko also came back, and after being held down by Younv Zhigao and cut a mountain eagle's hairstyle, he began to eat with tears in his eyes.

He didn't resist, because he knew that after cutting off his hair, it would grow back in a few days, but if he was beaten, it would take several days for the swelling to subside.

These experiences and lessons are said with tears.

After finishing the meal, Yume Shigao started to wash the dishes as usual, but when he finished cleaning up, he found that Yahiko and the others were still in the room.

So he asked with some doubts: "Aren't you going out to practice today?"

However, just as he finished speaking, Yahiko bowed towards him with a serious face.

"Brother, Nagato has already told me, please teach me how to change this country, please!"

Nagato also bowed and said, "Please, brother!"

"Uh……"

Seeing the two people saluting, Younv Zhigao was startled for a moment, and then laughed.

"Haha, there's no need to be so serious. It's just my shallow opinion. It's no big deal. Sit down and talk!"

"Yes, brother!"

Yahiko and Nagato agreed, and then sat on the ground in a well-behaved manner, as if listening to the teaching.

Seeing them like this, Younv Zhigao also sat down cross-legged, then smiled and spoke.

"The Land of Rain has always been reduced to the battlefield of this great country, and there are constant wars all year round. Why is that?"

"It's because the Country of Rain is too weak!" Yahiko clenched his fists and hammered the table in front of him: "That's why he was bullied by other countries!"

Nagato frowned, but said nothing.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Younv Zhigao smiled and shook his head.

"That's not the case. The Land of Rain is not weak. Take the latest war as an example. It was caused by Hanzo voluntarily declaring war on the Iron Land, Sand Hidden, and Konoha."

"What!" Yahiko suddenly revealed a face full of disbelief: "Why did Hanzo do this?"

"Hey, of course it's for profit."

Yuu Zhigao sighed, and looked at Yahiko with some pity.

"You probably don't know that the Land of Rain is actually very strong, second only to the Five Great Powers in military power. As long as Hanzo is willing to declare neutrality like the Iron Country, the Five Great Nations will not easily provoke the Rain Country, because it is not worthwhile."

"..."

Yahiko was silent. After listening to Yume Shidaka's words, he found that many things were completely different from what he thought.

And Nagato showed a thoughtful expression.

"Brother, do you mean that it is not hatred that leads to war, but profit?"

"That's right!"

Seeing that Nagato grasped the point at once, Yume Shigao nodded with a smile.

"It is because of interests, in order to compete for power, land and wealth, many contradictions will arise, and when these contradictions cannot be reconciled, wars will emerge."

As he spoke, he took out an apple and put it on the table.

"This is the land and resources of the ninja world, and the four of us are four countries. There is only one Apple, and we need four of us to divide it."

Yahiko frowned: "Then just divide it into four parts!"

"haha okay!"

Younv Zhigao nodded with a smile, picked up a fruit knife, cut the apple in half, and put one half in front of her.

"I am the strongest here, so this half belongs to me, and you can only share the other half, okay?"

The three of Yahiko nodded.

Then Yume Shidaka cut the other half of the apple in half, put it in front of Nagato and Konan, and finally spread his hands towards Yahiko.

"Gone!"

"Uh..." Yahiko was startled for a moment, and then he said angrily, "This is unfair!"

"So?" Younv Zhigao looked at him, "What are you going to do?"

"Redistribute!"

"That won't do!"

Younv Zhigao shook her head, picked up the apple and ate it with a few bites, then threw the core of the apple on the table.

"That's all that's left. I've already eaten the rest. Unless I cut my stomach open, I can't get it out."

"..."

Looking at the apple core on the table, Yahiko was silent.

He already understood what Younu Zhigao meant, and he also understood the plight of the Land of Rain, so he was a little depressed.

Nagato also understood, but he didn't get discouraged, but looked at Yume Zhigao with piercing eyes.

"Brother, there must be another way?"

Xiao Nan also nodded: "Well, brother must have a way!"

Seeing that the two of them had such confidence in him, Younv Zhigao couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, of course there is a way."

After speaking, he picked up the apple core on the table and broke it open, then dunked out the seeds inside and put it in front of Yahiko.

"Look, although the apples are gone, the seeds are still there. Plant them in the soil and take good care of them. When the apple tree grows, won't there be apples?"

"But..." Yahiko was still a little worried, "Even if the apple grows, it will still be snatched away."

Younv Zhigao raised her eyebrows: "You can beat whoever robs, do you still need me to teach you this?"

"But if that's the case, there will be a war. In the end, won't it be the same as before?" Yahiko became more and more entangled.

At this time, Xiao Nan said: "Then share the apples with everyone, so that..."

"no!"

Before Xiaonan could finish speaking, Nagato opened his mouth with a serious face.

"If you seek peace through struggle, you will live peacefully; if you seek peace through compromise, you will die peacefully. Therefore, compromise cannot bring you peace."

"Nagato..."

Konan stared blankly at Nagato with a firm expression in front of him, and found that he seemed to be a little different.

And Younv Zhigao also discovered this, and he laughed again.

"So if it's you, Nagato, what are you going to do?"

"I will protect the apple!" Nagato said without hesitation, "No one can take it away from me."

"Hmm!" Younv Zhigao nodded, and then asked, "And then?"

"And then...then...uh..."

Nagato obviously didn't think about what happened next, he was a little embarrassed, and could only look at Yume Zhigao with a look of help.

"Brother, what should we do next?"

"Haha, it's up to you to think about it yourself!"

Yume Zhigao laughed, and then looked at Yahiko next to her.

"To change the country of rain is not something that can be done overnight. It even takes several generations of hard work and faces countless difficulties and obstacles."

"I know!"

Yahiko stood up and grabbed the apple seeds on the table in front of him.

"I will plant the seed, and then by working hard to gain the power to protect it, I will change this country with my own hands!"

"And I!"

"Me too!"

Nagato and Konan also stood up.

The three of them looked at each other, felt the firm fighting spirit in each other's eyes, and then laughed at the same time.

Yahiko smiled, turned around and walked out of the house, buried the apple seeds in his hand in the open space in front of the door, and placed a circle of stones around it as a mark.

After finishing all this, he returned to the room and looked at Younu Zhigao solemnly.

"Brother, we can't change this country with our strength alone, please become our leader and use your wisdom to help us, please!"

After speaking, he knelt down on one knee.

Seeing his movement, Nagato and Konan also knelt down on one knee.

"Brother, please!"

"Brother Zhigao, help us!"

Oil Girl Zhigao: "..."

I just said hello, how did it become like this?
