Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja

What Yeshan said was half true and half false. The Konoha Village he loved was not the current village full of the will of fire, but the village of his ideal.

According to Ye Shan, the current situation in the ninja world is like the era of constant disputes among the Seven Heroes. If we want to prevent large-scale bloody wars from breaking out, the only way to achieve this is to truly unify the ninja world.

The overall strength of the Konoha Village is very similar to that of the Qin State that eventually unified the world. Both its geographical advantages and institutional advantages have laid a solid foundation for its unification of the ninja world.

In a time of great strife, if you don't move forward, you will fall behind. The Konoha high-level officials headed by Sarutobi Hiruzen did not realize this, and were still immersed in the wonderful experience of holding power, without any plan for the next step. Sarutobi Hiruzen was entrusted with the responsibility of Konoha Ninja Village in times of crisis after the Second Hokage was attacked and died. Although he led Konoha to win the Second Ninja World War, the Senju Clan was gone. Overall, his merits and demerits offset each other, which means that he did not have much merit, and at most he could be regarded as a king who maintained the status quo.

Ye Shan believes that what Konoha Village needs is not a sheep-like leader, but a lion-like leader, a leader who truly has a global vision and is committed to ending the chaotic war.

The war between the five great nations had been going on for a full forty-three years without stopping for a single day, causing great casualties to all ninjas. If Konoha Ninja Village could annex and digest other countries, even if it would cost huge casualties in the process of annexation, it would be worth it.

According to the history of the rise and fall of dynasties summarized by famous historians in the past, a newly emerged dynasty or power group often faces a huge crisis of extinction within three generations. The Qin Dynasty fell in the second emperor, the Han Dynasty almost fell in the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, the emergence of Wu Zetian after the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Chanyuan Alliance during the third emperor of the Song Dynasty, the Yan Wang Rebellion during the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, etc., all of which show the importance of the first three generations of leaders.

If the first three generations of leaders can withstand the pressure and leave a good political environment for future generations, then this power group will inevitably be stable and long-lasting.

The first and second Hokage completed their tasks perfectly, but when it came to the third Hokage, it seemed a bit out of place.

Yeshan knew very well that if this continued, after the end of the Third Ninja World War, Konoha Village would basically have lost the strength to unify the Ninja World, even if an extremely powerful person appeared.

Therefore, Yeshan did not like the Konoha Village which was full of hypocritical Will of Fire, and what he said was just for Tsunade to hear.

.......

A few days later, Hatake Sakumo's funeral was completely over, and the villagers' attention shifted to other new things. Few people went to the cemetery to pay their respects.

Early in the morning of that day, Ye Shan walked out of the house wearing all black. He was going to visit Hatake Sakumo, even though it was a little late.

Coming to the street, Ye Shan walked slowly along the wall, looking around aimlessly. After seeing a flower shop, he suddenly realized that it was inappropriate to go to the cemetery empty-handed, and immediately walked into the flower shop which had just opened, intending to buy a bouquet of flowers.

"Boss, how much are these chrysanthemums?"

Ye Shan squatted down, picked up a daisy which was rare in winter, felt the full vitality coming from the flower, and couldn't help but put it under his nose and smelled it.

A faint fragrance surged into Ye Shan's heart, as if dispelling some of the haze in his heart.

"Captain, you don't have to pay."

Ye Shan Wenhua froze in his tracks and looked up in surprise, only to find that the owner was his former teammate, Yamanaka Yuura.

Ye Shan unconsciously stretched out his right hand and touched his nose, and asked, "How are you doing recently?"

Yamanaka Yuura is a little thinner than before, and her face no longer has the fierce look that she always has. Instead, she looks a little more gentle, and she looks as gentle as the older sister next door.

Yamanaka Yuura smiled slightly, with two cute dimples on her cheeks, and said softly, "Everything is fine, but the captain hasn't been doing well lately, right?"

"Call me Yeshan. After all, you are not a ninja now."

Ye Shan looked at the other's tightly wrapped calves. Although it was a bit inappropriate to say this, he still said it.

"When I heard from Chen that you were injured, I wanted to take some time to return to the village to visit you, but I was delayed by other things."

This was the truth, and it was not something Ye Shan came up with on a whim. He had always planned to go back to the village to visit Yamanaka Yuura, but he was stranded at the border for ten months and completely missed the visiting time.

"Ye Shan, I know your difficulties."

Yamanaka Yuura seemed like a different person. She warmly invited Ye Shan to go into the back shop to rest for a while and skillfully made him a cup of tea.

"You are a civilian ninja, and I am a family ninja. It is inevitable that conflicts will arise on the battlefield due to our respective interests. But I was able to survive many times, isn't it because of the captain's repeated rescues?"

Ye Shan held the teacup and heard sincerity and gratitude in the other party's tone. He said, "It is the captain's responsibility to protect the team members. There is no need to thank him."

After looking around, Ye Shan found that the house seemed to be occupied by only one person, and couldn't help asking: "Are you not married yet?"

The reason why he asked this was because Yeshan knew that Yamanaka Yuura had a fiancé, and the two were engaged to each other as children, a match made in heaven.

The smile on Yamanaka Yuura's face froze, revealing a bit of bitterness, but she didn't say anything. She just focused on handing the exquisite snacks to Ye Shan.

Ye Shan was a man of great character and had rich experience in handling the ways of the world. Even though Yamanaka Yuura didn't say anything, he guessed most of it.

"Because of the legs?"

Ye Shan slowly ate the osmanthus pastry handed to him by Yamanaka Yuro, the fragrance lingering in his mouth while he asked slowly, his eyes fixed on her face.

"Don't blame him. I delayed him."

A hint of sadness flashed across Yamanaka Yuura's face, but in the end she still protected that person.

"Humph!"

Ye Shan snorted coldly and said nothing more. He just felt that the sweet snack in his mouth had lost its taste.

Since the victim, Yamanaka Yuura, is unwilling to pursue the matter, he naturally won't hold on to it, but a little punishment will inevitably be given when there is a chance in the future.

"Do you own this store?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Ye Shan asked to open the topic.

“I guess so.”

After a moment of silence, Ye Shan finally said, "Can I see your legs?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yamanaka Yuura's face. She didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly, then stretched out her left leg which was kneeling on the tatami.

When the loose casual trousers were pulled up to the thighs, a metal prosthesis appeared in front of Ye Shan. He put down the teacup in his hand, reached out and touched the cold prosthesis, and took it off amid Yamanaka Yuura's exclamation.

The entire calf was broken at the knee, and judging from the smooth and flat wound, the enemy's swordsmanship was very impressive, at least much stronger than Yamashiro Tatsuya's.

After checking it out, Ye Shan reinstalled the prosthesis and considerately straightened Yamanaka Yuura's pants. Then he picked up the teacup and sipped it.

"Do you remember that Mist Ninja?"

"Remember."

"What's your name?"

"One of the Seven Mist Hidden Ones, Kusanagi Yaito."

Ye Shan didn't know who the Tongcao Yabai people were, but he had heard of the Kirigakure Seven. Not only had he heard of them, he had also killed one of them with his own hands.

Thinking of this, Ye Shan nodded and said, "If I meet him, I will help you kill him."

Unexpectedly, Yamanaka Yuura rejected Yeshan's promise.

"No need. The battle between ninjas is full of unexpected events. The opponent is not a weakling. The captain does not need to take risks for me."

Ye Shan thought seriously for a moment and said, "There is no chance of an accident. It's just a piece of cake."

"That's really not necessary."

Yamanaka Yuura's insistence made Yeshan give up the idea of ​​specifically killing the Tousou Yabai people, but if he accidentally met one, he was still very interested in killing another so-called Seven People of the Mist.

"Captain, are you going to visit Lord Hatake Sakumo?" After seeing Ye Shan nod, she continued, "Then you should take the chrysanthemums. Daisies are not suitable."

Ye Shan smiled slightly and said, "You are an expert, I will listen to you."

Yamanaka Yuura stood up a little awkwardly, smiled gently at Yeshan, and walked to the front shop to start wrapping flowers.

A moment later, a bunch of pure white chrysanthemums were held in Ye Shan's arms. The size and shape were just right, and there were even more chrysanthemums than the samples displayed outside.

After hesitating for a while, Ye Shan did not mention the money, fearing that Yamanaka Yuura would feel alienated.

"Then I'll be leaving now. I'll come visit you with Yamashiro Tatsuki another day."

After saying goodbye, Ye Shan slowly walked out of the flower shop, blended into the pedestrians on the street, and disappeared from Yamanaka Yuura's sight.

Yamanaka Yuura looked up at the clear sky and couldn't help feeling better. She picked up the kettle and watered the flowers while humming a song, feeling quite contented.

Ye Shan, who was hiding in the dark, saw this scene and a warm smile appeared on his face. He then turned around and left without staying.

It’s a good ending that former teammates can still see the wind and sunshine every day, hum songs and do things they like, isn’t it?
