"By the way, there is one more thing. It is an important reason why Hokage needs to serve as a jounin before taking the throne!"

After being infected by Sasuke, Neji's mood was a little high.

Just listen to him continue to add:

"That is, the inheritance of the Will of Fire!"

"Humph, the will of fire."

On the other side, after hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke snorted with disdain.

"what happened?"

Neji asked in confusion, feeling a little strange.

"Ah, it's okay, you go ahead."

After realizing that he had lost his composure, Sasuke returned to his normal tone and signaled Neji to finish what he just wanted to say.

"Ok."

Neji nodded and continued:

“The inheritance of the Will of Fire must be carefully nurtured and nurtured while the children are still young.

"If you are too young, your cognitive abilities are insufficient. No matter how old you are, you have already formed your own set of ideas.

"I heard people say that when a person is too young, his thoughts are like a pool of liquid, which is difficult to shape. When he is too old, he becomes a hard solid, which is difficult for anyone to shake.

“Only in adolescence can we have the ability to think, as well as the desire and willingness to learn. During this period, human minds are like plasticine, which can be guided and shaped according to the expectations of adults.

"Furthermore, the thoughts people formed in their teenage years will gradually become the foundation of their minds as they grow older. When they grow up, it will be difficult to shake and change them."

These words about teenagers were all overheard by Neji inadvertently while the adults of the Hyuga clan were talking to each other.

Although he only heard fragments of information in his ears, Neji was a smart enough person who understood everything. Now he summarized it bit by bit based on his understanding of being a Jonin.

"By the way, there are also emotions. In fact, it is not just thoughts. The emotional bonds formed during adolescence are also the most deep-rooted and precious for a person."

Neji continued to add:

"As a key link in the Hokage's promotion path. As a Jonin, you can not only gain the emotional trust of the next Hokage, but also exert influence during the critical period of the formation of his thoughts.

"On the two levels of emotional identification and ideological identification, we work together to form a double insurance. It not only ensures the stability of my position as Hokage, but also ensures the stability of the village's inheritance."

Neji took a breath and finally finished explaining his views on the connection between being a Jonin and the Hokage.

"The Will of Fire is the specific carrier that maintains this stability, and it is also the spirit that has been passed down from generation to generation among Hokage-sama over the years.

"So, what do you think about this thing?"

Hyuga Neji still didn't forget Sasuke's initial attitude, so he asked.

"I think there may be no problem with the Will of Fire, but the use of the Will of Fire may not be as simple as what we learned in ninja school."

Sasuke hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his dissatisfaction with the Will of Fire these days:

"I see that when they are encouraging others to sacrifice, they talk a lot about the 'will of fire'. But when it is really their turn to sacrifice themselves, they start to make another sacrifice, and give it to you instead. What’s more important than talking about the overall situation.”

For a long time, Sasuke's attitude towards the Will of Fire has been one of "I don't understand, I am familiar with it, I don't blindly follow it, and I don't care".

But ever since he heard about the influence of the Will of Fire on Uchiha Itachi in the Kamui Space, he began to think deeply about this concept he had been exposed to since childhood when he had nothing to do.

"I have been thinking these days that the Will of Fire is actually an ideological purpose that calls for sacrifice, has the courage to sacrifice, honors sacrifice, and even makes mythical sacrifice.

"Speaking of which, isn't the caged bird on your forehead the perfect embodiment of the will of fire?"

Uchiha Sasuke analyzed Neji.

Hinata Neji nodded.

Although he did not see the essence of "The Will of Fire" as clearly as Sasuke, but based on the situation of the separated family and his own long-term position, it was indeed difficult for Neji to have much identification with the Will of Fire.

Is it possible that we really have to be like some old antiques who have been separated from their families and still have a sense of nobility while being a slave?

Cheap or not!

"So, what do you think about this thing?"

Neji wanted to hear Sasuke's thoughts again.

"The Ninja Village, as a military organization that focuses on combat, often faces a very fierce game environment. Under such a background, the fight to the end is likely to be about who is tough enough.

"In other words, an organization that takes the initiative to sacrifice, is willing to sacrifice, and has people who sacrifice, is the organization that can win in the end and is ruthless enough."

"Reflected in the game, it means the ability to maximize efficiency and the ability to optimize and coordinate resource allocation. These abilities will be reflected in the game pattern in the end, and are the embodiment of real combat effectiveness."

"According to what you say, the will of fire is necessary for its existence?"

Hyuga Neji had never thought so much before, and at this time, inspired by Sasuke, he officially began to think deeply.

"From the perspective of Lord Hokage, and even the high-level rulers of Konoha, this is indeed the case. It is useful, and it is of great use.

"But when it comes to the Uchiha clan and your Hyuga clan, that's not the case at all."

As the saying goes, a grain of ashes of the times is like a mountain when it falls on an individual.

Six months ago, Sasuke was suspected of colluding with Orochimaru for an inexplicable reason, and was finally detained by ANBU.

Although this encounter did not last long, it made him understand that the Konoha Hidden Ninja Village, which seemed to be stable and peaceful for a long time, might show its fangs to him under certain circumstances.

This special experience had a big impact on his young mind.

Before that, he also believed that matters involving the safety of the village needed to be stricter.

However, when the suspicion pointed at him, the tremendous pressure made Sasuke understand——

The premise of doing whatever it takes is that you have not become that price in the first place.

Regarding this point, as a member of the Hyuga branch who has been destined to be a consumable since birth, Hyuga Neji has a strong resonance in his heart.

"The Fourth Hokage, and even the Second Hokage, they all used their lives to implement the Will of Fire. When they had the choice, they chose to give up the chance of survival to others, making themselves the ones who sacrificed. .”

"This kind of person is a saint. However, the problem with the Will of Fire lies here. Do you think there are more saints or more mortals in this world?"

Sasuke asked.

Neji didn't answer.

Such a question really needs no answer at all.

"If we were all mortals, everyone would tremble in their hearts when facing death.
