[NARUTO] Night of the Full Moon

When he woke up, Sasuke had returned to Tazuna's house.The place where Tobirama hit him no longer hurts. Instead, he vomited out blood, which made his chest relax a little.It's just that the morbid nature of the performance has not been adjusted in time, which frightened Naruto in the bed next to him.

He kept checking: "Are you okay? Are you trying to pretend to be indifferent?"

"I'm really fine. Kakashi didn't say it was okay before."

"But your hands were weak and you dropped the bowl last night!"

After struggling for a whole morning, Naruto, with the comfort of Kakashi and others, believed that Sasuke was really not trying to show off.

After another two days of this, the bridge was finally completed.The bridge that connects the island to the outside world spans across the vast body of water, with one end hidden in the fog as if it has no end.

A bridge that brings hope to the island's residents.

For some unknown reason, Tatsuna hesitated between the names Hope and Courage, and finally named the bridge "Naruto Bridge", which made Naruto blush a lot.

The day we left was a good day.

They walked directly from the bridge this time. Naruto and Inari almost burst into tears when they said goodbye, but because of the young man's stubborn mind, they turned away forcefully, and finally waved goodbye with their backs to the Dazuna family.

After returning to the village and handing over the mission, Sasuke was urged by Naruto to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination. It was found that there was indeed no hidden disease, which completely reassured Naruto.

There were no tasks for the next two days, just routine team training.

When I went to Tiantian's house for weapon maintenance during the break, I saw Neji and another boy with a watermelon head.

The moment he saw the watermelon hair style, Sasuke thought of Senju Hashirama, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Fortunately, the green man's dressing sense was obviously different, and no matter the age gap between them, Sasuke felt helpless. Worry.

"Oh oh oh! Are you Uchiha Sasuke? I want to fight with you!" The watermelon-headed boy named Li became interested when he heard Sasuke's name, but Neji stood between them and blocked his sight.

"We should meet with Teacher Kai now and don't do anything unnecessary."

Seeing the familiar faces of Neji and Li, Sasuke couldn't help but feel amused: "Is this your friend?"

"Teammates in the same class." Neji replied expressionlessly.

Neji graduated a year earlier than Sasuke, and his teammates were Li and Tenten.

Although he looked unwilling to have anything to do with them, compared to his cold eyes, he clearly regarded Li and Tiantian as one of his own.

Sasuke nodded to Li as a greeting: "Let's discuss it later when we have time. Your name is Li..."

"Loke Li!" Xiao Li gave a thumbs up, showing his big white shining teeth.

"So is Li's surname? It's really rare." Naruto, who had not spoken much since seeing Neji, suddenly said.

"Haha, really? It is said that our ancestors came from overseas." Xiao Li was also very enthusiastic, "It seems like Tiantian is the same."

"Li, what are you talking about me again?" At this moment, Tiantian finally packed up the things needed for the mission and came out holding a large scroll.

"Just say our last names."

"Speaking of which, Tianten is just a name. I've never heard you say your last name before?" Naruto asked again.He and Tiantian were already familiar with each other, but they kept calling each other every day, and never heard the other party mention his full name.

"Only those with families have surnames. People like us who live in other places do not have surnames." Tiantian said matter-of-factly, "My name is Tiantian."

Naruto, who had found his mother's name precisely because of his surname, immediately paused. He didn't know what to say. He always felt that without a surname, he would have no connection with his family.

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly turned cold, Tiantian waved her scroll as high as a person in an imposing manner: "What expressions are you looking at! Isn't it great to have a surname? Believe it or not, I asked dad to increase the price of the weapons supplied to you!"

Tiantian's father was still responding: "Listen to your daughter!"

"No, no!" Naruto waved his hands and denied repeatedly, "That's not what I meant."

It made everyone laugh again.

"But it was still difficult at the beginning." After the three people left, Sasuke asked Tenten's father again.It has almost become his instinct to collect information about the village at any time.

"Actually, it's not bad." Tenten's father was cheerful, because Sasuke and the others were Tenten's friends, and they were willing to chat more when they were not so busy. "When I was young, I heard my grandfather say that when they first moved to the village, it was because It was easy to be ostracized when you were isolated, and your last name was quite important at that time.”

"But as the village accepted more and more people, the first Hokage at that time also realized the problem of family unity, so he canceled the Senju surname and became a person without a surname like us."

"Really?" Sasuke was surprised.He didn't expect that just by asking so casually, he would learn the reason why he had not found the descendants of Qianju all these years.

"Originally, the people of the Senju Clan had no surnames, but they are a big family after all, and their energy cannot be underestimated. No one will think of provoking them, and even those of us who don't have surnames will not be bullied at will. "After all, who knows if I might be unlucky enough to find someone from the original Senju clan.

"Did the First Hokage do this to improve the status of ordinary people?"

"I'm not very sure." Tiantian's father stood up and clapped his hands after finishing the maintenance of weapons. "Some people say that this is one of the reasons. Another reason is that everyone in the village is not bound to the family. I hope that everyone with different surnames in the village can Treat each other as family.”

Indeed, all the measures taken by the first Hokage were to eliminate the barriers between families and blur the boundaries between people.Let everyone be honest with each other, so that we can avoid fighting.

It's a pity that this kind of idea still cannot bring about peace in the world. It just transforms the struggle between families into the struggle between villages and countries.

But without Senju Hashirama, rootless people like Tenten and others who fled to this country would only be dead.Although his strategy cannot completely solve the problem at its root, it has undoubtedly sheltered many ordinary people.This also allowed the gap between ordinary people and ninjas to gradually disappear, reducing conflicts on another level.

It was not easy to make such considerations in that era. How could years-old disputes be completely resolved so easily?

It’s up to the new generation to figure out how to deal with the remaining problems.

Why can't I dare to think of things that Madara and the others can do?

"Sasuke, were the Senju the largest ninja clan in the village before? Why can canceling the Senju's surname solve the problem?" Naruto asked as he walked back after taking the maintained weapons.

"Senju, Uchiha and Hinata are the three major ninja clans in Konoha. It's hard to say whether Senju is the biggest, but since the first Hokage Senju Hashirama and the second Hokage Senju Tobirama are both from the Senju clan, there is no way It’s not difficult to understand why people dare to provoke me.”

"Eh? Are both Hokages from the Senju clan?" Naruto exclaimed.

"It was mentioned in the history class." Sasuke glanced at Naruto and thought of Naruto's record of being able to test his theoretical knowledge to zero in the past two years. Sasuke chose to reveal it silently and continued, "And before Senju Hashirama became the first Hokage, he was still a Senju. The clan leader has more control over the Senju. He wants the other ninja clans to cancel their surnames, but few people agree."

"After all, even though the Hokage was the top leader of the village at that time, it was impossible to instantly change the habit of each clan acting as a family unit. The patriarchs of the major families were the ones who could really give orders to the clansmen."

How could people from that era when family glory was paramount easily agree with Ichimura's point of view.It would be very difficult for the Senju clan members to give up their surname at first.

Fortunately, Hashirama succeeded, and this move was obviously effective in bringing people in the village closer together.

Thinking of this, Sasuke suddenly stopped.

In order to change the collective recognition of everyone from a clan to a village, Hashirama even took such a radical step as canceling the surname Senju. Then why did he let all Uchiha people serve as the village's guards?

Isn't this very detrimental to the integration of various families?

So far, except for Uchiha and Hinata, all other families have no clan territory in the strict sense.The so-called clan area is just a place where more people with one surname live, but there are also people with other surnames mixed in.Unlike Uchiha and Hinata, who are so hierarchical and even build high walls...

No, there is no Uchiha clan anymore.

Uchiha, who valued his family's honor more than his life, and Uchiha Obito, who was suspicious, there were only three people left.

Except for Uchiha, even Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata probably don't know what family honor is.

Did the village... really know nothing about the genocide before it happened?

"Sasuke?" Naruto waved his hand in front of Sasuke's eyes, and then puffed up his cheeks after seeing him come to his senses, "You're not even listening to me!"

"I was distracted just now, please say it again."

Sasuke felt reassured.

Uzumaki is also a large family that has been exterminated. It is impossible for a family that is not even close to Konoha to be destroyed by Konoha.Although Uzushio Village, which is being attacked by all the major powers, has sealing techniques that are coveted by all parties, it is probably contrary to the development of history. It is the result of sticking to the family's concept.

All kinds of tragedies may stem from the hidden dangers of rashly promoting the new world structure. Before he finds out all the truth, he cannot directly label Konoha as the executioner of everything.

However... it was already obvious that there was a malicious feeling towards the Uchiha in the village.

It is really surprising that there are so many crises and undercurrents surging in the shadows of the seemingly beautiful and peaceful village.

But of course, if from the Hokage to the many subordinate ninjas, they were such innocent characters on the surface, they would have been cannibalized by other countries.

Will it be like the Uchiha of the Warring States Period, where talents who are good at assassination are trained in another place?
