[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

The people are scattered with the flowers, leaving the lonely tree empty.

My name is Matt Kay.The sentence above doesn't look like something I could have written, but it is truly my original creation.Although I don't know why I wrote such a thing, maybe my brain is cramped.Anyway, I am often said to have brain cramps, and I am also called an idiot, a fool, a nuisance, a thick eyebrow, a watermelon head, and a big tooth.As for my famous self-proclaimed name, Blue Beast, I am rarely called by anyone.

When I was a child, I never understood why everyone kept giving me nicknames that I didn’t like even though everyone liked me. As I grew up, I finally understood it, but it’s not until now that I’m 30 years old. , finally had the courage to admit it realistically, they just always thought I was not good-looking.

Heart of beauty in everyone.Those who are good-looking, such as our Yondaime Hokage and his naughty and mischievous son, are bright and upright, and at first glance they are positive characters.But if it doesn't look good, it depends on the situation.For example, Orochimaru and Danzo-sama, if you want to insist that they are ugly, it is really unfair, but if you want to say that they are good people, you really need some solid evidence for anyone to believe them.As for me

At a glance, I saw that he was thick from head to toes, with thick eyebrows, a watermelon head, and a smile full of white teeth with leaky gums.In addition, I don’t like the uniforms of Konoha, and prefer to wear a green family heirloom tights. Sometimes when I see photos with everyone, I also find it a bit funny.But here comes the important point. If any of the seniors in Konoha still remember my father, Iron-Blooded Matt Dai, they should know that my father, with his regular facial features, bold eyebrows, big eyes and a beard, clearly has the same facial features as my father. How can it be ugly if it looks the same?

It's just that I grew my watermelon hair instead of the Flame Mountain, and I didn't grow a beard because it was too troublesome. Is it possible that a few hairs can really change my face? It's obvious that you don't have eyesight, just like my disciple Locke Li.He wears the same clothes as me and has the same hairstyle. Does he have to be my illegitimate child? Obviously, his eyebrows are as thick as mine, but he doesn’t have the same eyebrow shape as our Matt family. He is not related by blood. No, no, no, just not always. You guys who get so excited when you see superficial things and spread some strange rumors everywhere tell me what to say about my wife and the birth of a son in the future.

Okay, let’s get back to the topic first.Anyway, humans are easily deceived by their eyes.They always believe too much in what they see, but are not confident in the facts, facts, facts.

Ah, I finally came to the point, why did my father dress me up like this since I was a child, and I, who suffered the loss of this dress, still dress up like Rock Li now.Actually, it’s for purity, no, for youth, no, for survival, for survival

Ninjas who are proficient in taijutsu are, to put it bluntly, so partial to one subject that they can only follow one course to death.Of course you can be called a master after you have completed your studies, but before you have completed your studies, you are just asking for abuse.Then who knows that they are going to be tortured and yet they are not prepared?

The slightest difference between a master's move and his miss can make a huge difference. Before the fight, if you saw that my thick eyebrows with watermelon heads were funny, then you should despise me and just laugh. As soon as you despise me and smile, the slightest difference will come out.As for the green tights, Konoha is a place with big green trees everywhere, so wearing the canopy color is of course easier to camouflage.And when you go running around in the woods, you wear clothes that can easily get caught on branches. Our Matt family just wears tighter clothes than jounin uniforms.

Of course, someone was about to remind me that there is a ninjutsu in the world called invisibility.Didn’t everyone say that Taijutsu Ninjas are very partial to science? We, the Matt family, are partial to science and science. We have always been partial to science and will always be partial to science. I speak for it and I am proud of it, Oye.

Anyway, you don’t care if I’m a physical ninja or a jutsu ninja.Anyway, I am a ninja, a jounin of Konoha, a true elite, just like Konoha White Fang, the same as the golden flash, and the same as my father.

Even my father remained a genin until his death.

Yes, genius jounin no longer needs to dress up like a clown every day to beg for contempt and think about pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.But the genin didn't want to die too early and had to choose his opponent carefully.Especially like my father, Rock Lee and I were not from traditional ninjutsu families, and the Matt family had no bloodstains on their bodies. In my grandfather's father's generation, he was just a wandering samurai with a family.He just fled to the Land of Fire, and when Konoha was building a village to recruit people, he stayed and started learning to be a ninja like everyone else.

However, not everyone without ninja blood can successfully extract chakra, which is necessary for ninjutsu, and even if it is extracted, it cannot be used.Therefore, even though he was a good fighter and merciless in killing people, my grandfather could only be a genin.There's no point in getting promoted anyway. Ninjas are a class society. They have to be ranked according to seniority and respectful to the subordinates. How could anyone be willing to accept a tai-nin who has a hard time getting promoted as his boss and affect his own promotion?

But love is not that complicated. My grandfather still married my grandmother, a true kunoichi. They fought side by side as a ninja, and finally died together in the Great Ninja War.Then there is my father. He is similar to most of his peers. He lost his parents when he was young, but as a blessing in disguise, he was arranged to go to school by the Nidaime-sama and received a very formal ninja education. Although he still did not refine any useful chakra. But he also found a kunoichi who was willing to spend his life with him, my mother.My father always said that my mother was a poor person. It was clear that as long as she persisted for 2 minutes, the order to retreat would come.In short, she died and left behind me. I have three-quarters of ninja blood. I received a complete and systematic education from Konoha Ninja School since childhood and successfully graduated. I am the only one in the Matt family who can extract chakra that can be used. Although the number of people is a little smaller, it is no longer a gap.

Just can

Unfortunately, my father still hasn't seen me become a Chuunin or a Jonin, reach the pinnacle of my life, marry Shiro Fumi, and become a very important figure in Konoha.

Because he died too, in the middle of another mission.

It was the 43rd year of Konoha, the Second Ninja World War. The war was tragic and Konoha was downsized, so it could no longer control the jounin and genin. The 35-year-old ten thousand year genin Matt Dai had experience beyond his own class. , naturally it should be used as a chuunin and jounin.That day, he was running to the Konoha camp with a piece of information and three young genin.Originally, if we encountered an ordinary interception, the cooperation of four people would be enough to deal with it.But they were so unlucky that they encountered the "Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist".

The famous ninjas during the war are not the gentle guys like "Copy Ninja Kakashi", "Konoha's Genius Itachi", and "Demon Zabuza" now.They picked them out one by one, and they were all "Sannin", "Konoha White Fang" and "Golden Flash". They could just turn around and run away when they met.

So there are seven named jounin over there, and four cannon fodder genin over here.

Fortunately, my father had already learned the Eight Gate Dungeon, a great ninjutsu that breaks the body's safety restrictions on chakra. In theory, if you use it in the end, you can gain greater power than the shadow. But if you really use it in the end, It’s just about burning life.Therefore, at the cost of his life, Genin Matt Dai actually succeeded in stopping seven famous jounin that time, killed two, seriously injured three, and at the same time saved the lives of three genin, Shiranui Genma. Ebisu, and Metkai.

My father did die to save me.As much as I hope, it wasn't me he saved.If I were not among those three genin, would it be more noble when Konoha evaluates his title of hero?After all, risking your life to save your son and risking your life to save your teammates are not the same concepts.

But I still felt that even if I wasn't present that day, my damn dad would still risk his life to save her.

After all, he always taught me this before his death: life is so wonderful, life is so brilliant, every life is life, and all lives are equal.Even if you are a ninja and you are used to killing people, you still need to understand what you are doing and why you are killing people.

"It's not about defeating the strong."

Yes, yes, dad, I know, I understand, I understand, but now it is a chaotic world, a chaotic world. Konoha has been at peace for 10 years, but the world is still a chaotic world.So until now, apart from the shameless use of violence, people still have nothing to be reasonable about.

"It's to protect your important things even until death."

Well, father, the most important thing for you is to never give up your belief in never being afraid of death, and me.So what about my important things?

I love my family, my brothers, my parents, my son, my daughter, and her.But now, apart from me, the only person left dead in my family is the old turtle whom my father’s grandfather saved when he fled. As for my son and daughter, I don’t even have her.

So when my father's name was engraved on the memorial tablet, I began to think about what things were still mine.Except for that old turtle, I am mine, my money is mine, my house and homestead are mine, and the plants, trees, tables and chairs in my house are also mine.But even if I live to be 100 years old and die, the old turtle will probably still be alive and well.I am not a farmer and the land means nothing to me.As for money, house, furniture, etc., they are still not important things.So, what's left for me to protect?

I had no choice but to ask Kakashi. The white-haired bastard who lived across the street from me was always smarter than me, and he was already like me at that time. Apart from the house, land and furniture, the only things left at home were a few puppies.As a result, Kakashi told me, "The teacher said they are teammates."

But my teammate Shiranui Genma is now the chief of staff of Konoha. The Hokage is not at home, and he can have the final say in Konoha's small matters.As for Ebisu, he is the tutor of Konohamaru, the young master of the Sandaime family, and there is no guarantee that he will become the master of Hokage in the future.

In short, it turns out that my teammates don't need me at all.

So I can only ask Kakashi again, what if my teammates no longer need my protection?

Kakashi ignored me this time, and answered me with the golden flash that had become the Fourth Hokage, "Then please protect Konoha well. Anyway, as long as Konoha is still there, sooner or later you will be able to find your important one again." Something, I promise.”

But many years have passed and I am still a single person raising an old turtle.What are you talking about my three disciples?You don’t even look at whose disciples they are. Let me tell you, the three of them will soon be promoted to chunin, jonin, and reach the pinnacle of their lives, and they will no longer need my protection.

Ah, youth

But it doesn't matter, it's time for me to marry a wife.Dad, tell me which Konoha kunoichi I should chase?

The moonlight is just right.

Metkai wiped the poem on the floor with his foot and could not write the second half of it, looked at the fire shadow's bedroom, which was still lit, and then raised his hand to look at his watch.It's already 2:[-] in the middle of the night, and it's long past time to ask someone to change the shift.And he was hungry and wanted to go to the kitchen to eat curry.However, the children are all getting older and will grow shorter if they don't sleep well. Yamato running around with the Hokage for a day is too exhausting. As for Kakashi, who is supposed to be on duty, let him sleep until he wakes up naturally.
