Konoha's New Third Hokage

Chapter 288 The Future of Fear

The other people also heard the confession of this sand hermit ninja, and they were also very angry. In this day and age, captives cannot be said to be a very common thing, but compared with the past, it is undoubtedly much more relaxed.However, this policy of Sand Yin Ninja Village is to let it return to the customs of the Warring States Period. Although it is not impossible, it is undoubtedly unacceptable for young people living in the present.

Everyone looked at the three Shayin ninjas with a hint of pity. There is no such regulation in Konoha Ninja Village. If they are really captured unfortunately, the village will try their best to rescue them, or take the form of trading Let him return, and treat his family members with preferential treatment according to regulations.

Even in the relatively closed Yuyin Ninja Village, prisoners may be strictly interrogated or monitored to prevent them from becoming spies, and it is absolutely impossible to directly execute them without saying anything.

"Master Kagami, they should..." A Konoha ninja said at this time, he didn't know what to do with the three sand ninjas. Based on the principle of giving priority to the prisoners, they should be given to the prisoners, but according to his explanation According to the village order, once captured, it is tantamount to death, so the value of captives will no longer exist.

Uchiha mirror didn't know what to do for a while. He had never captured anyone from Sagan Ninja Village before. He thought it was because of their firm will to fight. Even if they were invaders, regardless of their character, at least for their strength, Uchiha Mirror still admitted it, but he didn't expect that there was such a reason behind such a strong will to fight.

——Masaki, if it were you, what would you plan to do at this time?
Masaki Kazemori could not help but appear in the mind of Uchiha mirror. In the past ninja wars or in the government affairs of the village, Masaki Kazemori has always shown the overall situation and strategy superior to those of his peers Consciousness, and it has been quite effective for many years, he couldn't help asking himself, if Masaki Fengmori faced this situation, what method would he use.

Judging from common sense, the captives who lost their trading value should be executed directly to prevent them from returning to Sand Yin Ninja Village to fight again.However, these people had to seek death after the defeat. This involuntary feeling made Uchiha mirror a little sympathetic. After all, they were fighting for the village. It was not a crime of war, but they ended up like this.

Wait, Uchiha mirror suddenly remembered that when discussing the captives with Masaki Fengmori in the past, what Masaki Fengmori said to him, Masaki Fengmori has always advocated that prisoners should be treated with certain preferential treatment, to ensure that other Basic rights, this is by no means just benevolence, because since the choice of captives means that sooner or later they will be sent back to the enemy ninja village. Instead of torturing them and forcing them to generate hatred, it is better to disintegrate their will to fight in a gentle way.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?If it is those ninjas who experienced closed practice before the Warring States period and were almost brainwashed, it may not be so effective to treat them, but in the ninja era, ninjas no longer need to hide their own shadows, and can appear in the world openly For the time being, this has gradually loosened those closed customs.

No matter which ninja village it is, the image of the traditional ninja is the Anbu of each village. Only those who have received secret training can maintain that cold-blooded and ruthless style, which is enough to explain certain problems.Even so, Sai, who came from a more ruthless root than Anbe, gradually wavered in his will in the process of getting along with Uzumaki Naruto and others, and finally betrayed Shimura Danzo who raised him since childhood.

Combined with some examples of Masaki Fengmori's previous life, it has been proved that it is feasible, and during the first Ninja World War, the captured Yunyin ninja compared the kindness of Konoha Ninja Village, and they could feel The cruelty of the village—although it is mainly due to the anti-war sentiment generated by the cruelty of the war, it is indeed beneficial to Konoha Ninja Village—after the rebellion of Jinjiao and Yinjiao was quelled, these people became the guardians of Konoha and Yunyin. The middle power of peace.

In the process of appeasing those captives, Uchiha mirror vaguely remembered that there was a saying in the propaganda that separated ordinary ninjas from those who initiated the war, saying that ordinary ninjas were only used by careerists, not their own problems. Those who should really be blamed are those careerists——

"Wait a minute, maybe..." Uchiha mirror seemed to think of something, glanced at the sand ninjas who fell on the ground, and after thinking about it, he felt that there might be some possibilities, so he asked people to help the three sand ninjas Get up, lift their eyelids, and let their eyes meet Uchiha Mirror.

"Master Jing, what is this for?" Everyone else was a little surprised.

"One attempt, if it succeeds, maybe these captives can also have their own value." Uchiha mirror smiled and closed his eyes slightly. The illusion he will perform next requires quite a lot of power, isn't it That kind of simple gaze can be displayed.

"I hope you can do what I want. At least for you, this may be the only way to survive. It's better than dying so wrongly." Uchiha mirror muttered to himself, then opened his eyes suddenly, scarlet The dark pupils stared at Sand Ginger Ninja.

"Sharingan——" Accompanied by Uchiha mirror's voice, the consciousness of those sand hidden ninjas was dragged into the world of illusion.

Naoto felt that his body seemed to fly into the sky, and then he was pulled by a huge force and fell to the ground.Then, he felt the rain on his body, not only the rain, but also the muddy water behind him was terribly cold, as if his whole body was about to freeze.

He immediately opened his eyes, rolled up from the ground, stretched out his hand to hold Kunai, and prepared to fight the enemy to the death, but he did not see the enemy.Because all the enemies fell to the ground, their blood was washed away by the rain, their pupils were dilated, their expressions were stiff, and it was obvious that they had been dead for a long time.

"What's going on?" Naoto was stunned for a second, stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, vaguely, he seemed to remember what happened before.

Just when they were about to go out to investigate, they were attacked by Konoha ninjas. After their desperate resistance, they finally killed all the enemies, but their two companions died unexpectedly.Thinking of this, he quickly turned his head and saw the corpses of his two companions, feeling a little sad in his heart.

Naoto is not from a ninja family, but a commoner who was introduced to the Sand Yin Ninja School because of his good talent. After training, he showed considerable talent and became a Chunin at a young age. The village is undoubtedly something to be proud of.

Because he was born as a non-family ninja, Naoto was rejected to a certain extent, but he felt that there was nothing to care about. As a commoner, being able to become a powerful ninja made him very grateful to the village.He can also accept the rejection of family ninjas. The gradual rise of civilian ninjas is contradictory to family ninjas, but in Shayin Ninja Village, this situation is quite strong.

When he participated in the war, the companions assigned by Naoto were all civilian ninjas. Only the captain of the team was a family ninja. Fortunately, the character of the captain was not bad, but the rules of the village were very strict. In the case of being captured, he would rather die than let the other party succeed.

Naoto remembered this rule in his heart, so he was very brave in battle, and finally survived the enemy's attack. However, his companions were not so lucky.He stretched out his hand to wipe the water off his face, whether it was rain or tears, he looked around to make sure there was no one there, and then sneaked cautiously.

Naoto knows that the Sagan ninja troops have left, and he is alone and helpless here. He must be careful and can only pray that because the war is over for a while, the cordon of Konoha Ninja Village is not so strict. If he is lucky, he may still be able to escape. Go out, of course, if you are really captured, you can only die together.

Facts have proved that Naoto's luck is very good. Although Konoha Ninja Village still has a cordon, the scope is not very large. This cordon is mainly aimed at large-scale troops. If the scope and the infiltration of the team are included, it will take consumption The manpower is very large, and it is also for the purpose of saving.

Because of this, it is possible to escape in a situation like Naoto. Even so, Ninja Village is not an idiot. After a series of honed-in tactics, they can do their best to take care of every place, even if it is really small. Troops, if they are not elite, cannot be easily infiltrated.

It wasn't until seven days later that Naoto left the control area of ​​Konoha Ninja Village and ran to the territory controlled by Sand Yin Ninja Village. He didn't know how he got through these seven days. The dead Konoha ninja was searched.

Naoto could only maintain basic physical strength, and walked slowly to the stronghold of Sand Yin Ninja Village, and was found by the inspectors. The moment he saw his companion, Naoto couldn't hold on any longer and passed out.

When Naoto woke up again, what he saw was not the medical camp he had imagined, but a dark room.His body was still very weak, and the wound on his body was simply bandaged. This treatment was too perfunctory. What was even more surprising was that his whole body was chained to a wooden frame. He was very surprised. Called: "What is this place? Where are the people?"

When talking, Zhiren's voice was very hoarse, but the people at the door still heard it. With the sound of the door opening, a person appeared in front of Zhiren and said, "You're awake."

Naoto looked at each other, frowned slightly, and said, "Is that you?"

The other party is also a member of Sagan Ninja Village, and Naoto also knows him. His name is Sunamaru, a very down-to-earth name. He is a member of a certain ninja family in the village and is three years older than Naoto.The reason why they knew each other was because they had conflicts during the Chunin test in the village, and they had grievances against each other.

"It's me." Sand Maru smiled slightly and said, "Long time no see, I didn't expect you to end up like this." He said, shaking his head and sighing as if worried.

"Where is this place? Why didn't you take me to the medical camp?" Naoto stared at the other party, with a bad premonition in his heart.

"Medical camp, do you think you can enjoy this kind of treatment?" Sunamaru sneered, "Isn't it, the prisoner of Konoha Ninja Village, Naoto-kun."

When Zhiren heard it, he suddenly felt his head was hit by a heavy hammer, and there was a buzzing sound. He couldn't believe what he heard, and subconsciously asked, "What did you say?"

"I said, the prisoner of Konoha Ninja Village, Naoto-kun." Sandmaru really repeated it again.

"You're talking nonsense!" Naoto was furious after making sure he wasn't hallucinating, "When did I become a prisoner? I escaped from Konoha!"

"Do you think this sentence is credible? You are the only one who can escape from there, or is there someone helping you?" Sand Yin is obviously not talking about Naoto's companion, but Konoha ninja.

"You spew blood!" Nao was trembling with anger, and the chains slammed, "You are not a newcomer. Knowing the size of the cordon before the war, even if there is only one person, it is possible to escape."

"Maybe so, but it's not easy for us to believe." Sand pill shook his head slightly.

"You are avenging your personal revenge. I want to see Chiyo-sama and the rest of the Junin. Hurry up!" Naoto was very emotional.

Sandmaru looked at Naoto, and sighed softly, "Oh, Naoto, the reason why you have lived until now is to let you die knowing that although we had some grievances in the past, we still had some friendship."

"What?" Naoto was a little surprised.

"Regardless of whether you sneaked in as a spy or escaped, you will inevitably die." Sandmaru looked into Naoto's eyes, "As long as the team is separated from the main force and cannot be contacted for a period of time, you will be killed later." If you return to the village, no matter what the reason is, you will be treated as traitors. We don't have the energy to distinguish where you went after being separated and the reasons for your return. If you survive, some people may think that after surrendering, you only need If you can hide it, you can save the lives of yourself and your family."

"I worked so hard to escape!"

"Yes, you may have escaped by luck, but is this reason so important to the village?" Sand Maru shook his head and said, "Instead of spending that effort to investigate whether you have betrayed, it is better to execute them all as traitors once and for all. If you drop it, it will directly make the remaining people firm in their beliefs and fight more bravely. Straight people, let me explain to you, the current village does not have any concept of prisoners of war or deserters, and all of them will be counted as traitors, so your result is destined."

"Why, why did you do this?"

"Why? In order to strengthen the will of the ninjas, in order to use every ounce of power in the village to weaken the enemy, it is absolutely not allowed to send power to the enemy. After all, the strength of the village is not enough, so it can only go sideways, even if this It might be drinking doves to quench thirst." Sand Wan said.

"I, I didn't run away, nor did I betray, I was fighting for the village wholeheartedly." Naoto's body trembled slightly, "Look at the wounds on my body, these are left from fighting Konoha ninjas! "

Sand Maru didn't speak, but there was a trace of pity in his eyes. Although they had grievances, they had acknowledged each other, so he was willing to say this, so that Naoto would die if he understood. After a while, he said; "Okay, you It's almost time to go on the road, Chiyo-sama is still waiting for the report."

"Wait, what will happen to my family?" Naoto shouted hastily.

"What do you think will happen to the traitor's family?" Sunamaru walked out without looking back, and closed the door heavily. ,

The bang and the last words seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back. He immediately yelled, his voice full of despair and hatred.Accompanied by the phrase "Sand Yin Ninja Village", he suddenly straightened up from the ground, sweating all over, and soon mixed with the rain. He stared at Uchiha mirror with one eye closed in front of him, and said with some regret : "Is it illusion?"

"No, it may also be the reality that is about to happen." Uchiha Mirror said.
