Living in Naruto

Orochimaru finally escaped. After being injured, he was unable to deal with the Konoha ninjas and was taken away by his subordinates.

The Sandaime is dead.

He said people always die, but I still can't let go.

Is this the fate of ninjas...

We kill and we get killed...

ninja...

The sky was gloomy and raining, and I stood alone in front of the memorial monument in silence.

The funeral of three generations has ended, the chaos has subsided, the dead have passed away, but the living will continue.

I said I didn't want anyone to die, but people still died, and there were more names one after another on the memorial tablet, bright red, like blood.

"Don't go back yet?"

Kakashi came, holding flowers in his hands and holding an umbrella for me.

"You are the same, why are you here now?"

"I'm just not used to the sad atmosphere..."

"Me too."

There was silence. We stood in front of the commemorative monument without saying a word for a long time. A ray of sunshine came down and was shining on the commemorative monument. The rain stopped.

"Kakashi-sensei, is this the fate of all ninjas?"

Not long after I became a ninja, I witnessed a lot of deaths. Sometimes I wonder what is happening to this world. Wealth, land, resources... Obviously these can meet people's needs, why are there so many struggles and meanings? Where exactly?

No matter whether it is the five major countries or the surrounding small countries, they are not that poor. It can even be said that most countries have quite abundant resources, but various struggles have never stopped.

"The first generation is an idiot!"

I suddenly blurted out that that was actually what I had been thinking.

"Why do you say that?"

Kakashi was surprised and looked at me in surprise, not understanding why I would say such a thing.

"There is clearly the power to unify the world, but what kind of ninja village has been established to create a country within a country..."

"Don't say this nonsense..."

Kakashi sighed, "There are many things you still don't understand..."

"Don't think like that in the future, it's a dangerous idea."

I didn't speak anymore. My thoughts were indeed very dangerous for the ninja world, but after seeing the death of the Sandaime, this thought emerged uncontrollably and I couldn't control it.

It may be difficult to understand, but this is my idea. If the world is unified, these boring disputes will stop, and there won't be so many people dying.

But who will do it? Why didn't the first generation do it if they had such power? Is it unexpected?

I can imagine such a grand scene. All nine tailed beasts are concentrated in Konoha. The two strongest ninjas in the world are also in Konoha. There are countless strong people below...

but why……

Why no one has the ambition to dominate the world...

I gritted my teeth and stared at the commemorative monument. There were names one after another on it. They all died in the war. I knew that there were more whose names were not even written on them.

"Go back, don't keep your family waiting too long."

Kakashi patted me on the shoulder, placed the flowers next to the commemorative monument, and turned to leave.

I stood in front of the commemorative monument for a while, and finally left. Perhaps, at this time, some seeds had been planted in my heart, waiting to take root and sprout.

Three days have passed since the Chunin Exam incident. People in Konoha are busy and there are still many places to repair. The ninjas also had more tasks, because at this time Konoha wanted to show its strength and began to desperately take on tasks.

The genin of Konoha also began to have more tasks, but compared to the chunin and jounin, they were not bad.

Tsunade is about to take over as the fifth Hokage. It can be said that it is expected by everyone. The inauguration ceremony is scheduled for two weeks.

There were very few civilian casualties, which I still find quite gratifying. The Genin Alliance is among the

He played a vital role in the incident. It can be said that he responded immediately and rescued a large number of civilians.

I received a notice that Tsunade wanted to summon me.

The Hokage Building is as lively as ever, with people coming and going, staff from various departments giving out and taking tasks...

"excuse me!"

I apologized, knocked on the door and walked into the Hokage's office.

Tsunade is not yet Hokage, but she has begun to perform her duties as Hokage.

"I have met Hokage-sama. I don't know why Hokage-sama called me here."

"There's no need to be so outgoing, Kyo," Tsunade waved her hand: "Just call me master."

"Oh," I returned to normal, "Why did master call me here?"

"Ahem!" Tsunade cleared her throat, "About your identity as a ninja."

"Ninja? Identity?"

"Yes, based on your performance in the Chunin Exam incident, the Elders Council unanimously approved your qualifications to become a Chunin."

"Chunin? But I am no longer a ninja, and I have decided not to be a ninja anymore."

Tsunade took out a letter and handed it to me, "This is what the Third Generation meant. The Third Generation left a letter for you. Please read it."

I opened the letter and read it. Tsunade looked at me quietly, waiting for me to finish reading.

The Third Generation values ​​me very much, as you can see from the letter, but I don't understand why I get the attention of the Third Generation when I'm just a genin.

"How's it going? Have you decided?"

"Can I refuse?"

"No."

"I see."

I cleared my throat: "Shimura Kyo, officially accept the appointment and become the chuunin of Konoha!"

Tsunade smiled, walked up and patted me on the shoulder: "Is this right? You are worthy of being my disciple. Only two of them passed the Chunin Exam this time!"

"The other one is Shikamaru, right?"

"Yes, there is another one, Shikamaru."

The evaluation of ninja level is not only based on the strength of the ninja, but also the overall quality is very important. This is not a time of war, and ninjas don't just have to be able to fight.

If he could fight, Sasuke could definitely defeat a large number of chuunin, and even some jounin were inferior to him. However, Sasuke failed the chunin assessment.

Speaking of Sasuke, he hasn't seen anyone else these days, and so does Naruto. He seems to be training with Jiraiya recently, which seems to be quite hard.

Tsunade became a lot busier after becoming Hokage, and she was nothing like before. She also became much more serious, probably because of her increased responsibilities.

I said goodbye to Tsunade and took my newly issued vest and forehead protector. I didn't know how to explain it to my family for a while.

"Hey, I haven't seen you in a few days."

Shikamaru had already put on his chuunin vest and greeted me when he saw me coming out of the building.

"Didn't we meet three days ago? Congratulations on becoming a chuunin, Shikamaru."

"Jing, what are you..."

"As you can see, I am also a chuunin now."

"Shikamaru, where are we going to celebrate...Oh, Kyo, you are here too."

Ino ran over in a hurry, followed by Choji who was eating snacks and walking.

"Hi Ino, Choji."

"Kyo, Shikamaru has become a chuunin, do you know? Hey, what is in your hand..."

……

I explained to Ino Choji again that I am also a chuunin now.

"It's really unexpected that you became a chuunin even though you didn't take the exam..."

"I don't want to either, but..." I was a little troubled now: "How should I explain to my family..."

"Let's talk together, Aunt Hezi will understand!"

hope so……
