Of course, Hatake Sakumo does not feel any resentment or jealousy towards the current Hanyu, otherwise he would be too narrow-minded as a ninja, and all narrow-minded ninjas are hopeless ninjas.
Hatake was just a little curious about when Hanyu completely surpassed him.
Well, this is also a question that is not easy to find a clear answer.
During the war, fighting with the enemy has occupied the entire mind of every ninja. Who has so many thoughts to compare with their companions?
Everyone who survives every battle is moving forward, but Hanyu is moving much faster than Hatake Sakumo. In general, there is no need to pursue the past. All Hatake Sakumo can do now is to catch up.
And even though Hanyu is now a famous ninja, the price he paid for it was not small, and it all happened right in front of us - looking at this horrible picture of him shrunk so much, it is really hard to imagine what Hanyu did to himself.
However, this is consistent with Sakumo's understanding of Hanyu. Hatake knew a long time ago that although Hanyu looked calm, harmless, and peaceful, he actually had a very extreme side.
At the temporary hospital at the frontline camp of Kawanokuni that year, Sakumo saw with his own eyes how Hanyu kept injecting himself with water.
In fact, that kind of behavior was already quite paranoid and pathological, and it left a considerable psychological trauma on Sakumo... At that time, when Hatake looked at Hanyu, he actually had the same view as Hanyu about the future Orochimaru.
Some people don't do things that normal people should do.
But did those perverted behaviors work? Yes, they did, because soon after, Hanyu developed his own lightning-style high-speed ninjutsu.
There is a reward for every effort, and that result made Sakumo understand a profound truth - there is nothing wrong with a man being a little abnormal.
"Let's get back to business, Sakumo. The war is over. For some time to come, the ninjas in the village will be relatively idle, so...what are your plans next?"
A few casual words were enough to reminisce about the past, and soon Hanyu turned the topic to the key point.
"Intend?"
Hanyu's question was a bit broad and ambiguous, so Sakumo didn't understand the point for a moment... Even if the war was over, for a ninja, what plans were needed for the future? It was just a retirement life of eating, sleeping, and practicing killing.
"Perhaps you don't know yet… There is something that is still relatively secret at the moment, that is, with the support of the Third Hokage, I have established a new ninja organization in the village.
What I want to say is that if you don't have any special plans for the future, then working with me should be a good choice."
To seduce talented people, you have to be straightforward. As for salary and benefits... they cannot be discussed at all.
There is nothing wrong with Hanyu revealing such information . The essential purpose of the formation of the "Shadow Stream" organization will be kept secret, but the existence of the organization itself will gradually become known to the public. Now Hanyu just lets Sakumo know about this matter some time in advance.
"Establishing a new ninja organization, for what?"
Sakumo asked naturally. He was not concerned about why Hanyu was able to establish such an organization, but rather the purpose of its establishment.
"There are considerations for balancing the internal forces of Konoha and making the village's ninja system run better. There is also a plan to eliminate a huge hidden danger for the village later... In short, we are an aboveboard, legal organization with a license from the village chief, and we don't engage in conspiracies, you can rest assured about this.
This matter was initiated by me, so apart from those utilitarian reasons, my most fundamental personal intention should be said to be... for world peace. "
"World...world peace?"
Sakumo was a little confused. Of the two reasons given by Hanyu before, he at least vaguely understood the first reason. However, the more he talked about the rest, the more confused he became. How could there be world peace?
"How many people are there in this organization you are talking about?"
"If you count, there are two for now."
"…"
Fuck, just two people? What about world peace? Is world peace the shorthand for "peace in the world of two people"?
"Sakumo, every ninja's career and thoughts start with fighting and killing. However, as he continues to fight and kill and becomes stronger, the things he thinks about will gradually become more grand and cannot be limited to killing.
When a person is as strong as Hokage, no matter if he is in the position of Hokage or not, he will definitely not think about how to kill people quickly and efficiently. He will naturally think about the ninja village and the ninja world.
Of course, if it is limited to me personally, this statement is not very true. After all, my current strength is still very limited. When it comes to so-called grand ideals, it is a bit presumptuous. But... after all, I am a relatively special person, so I will plan some special things in advance. "
Although there is a lot of discussion and praise about Hanyu in the village now, with his current strength, he is actually not qualified to talk about the word "future"...for no other reason, just because the future is an era where hanging walls are rampant.
It is quite correct to say that capable people will consider the whole world, but the one who is a bit out of touch with this argument is actually Hanyu himself... Some of his ideas are not supported by his actual strength. The reborn Hanyu has a perspective that allows him to overlook the whole world, which is something he can never forget and has no way of forgetting.
From the beginning to the end, Hanyu's thinking level was ahead of what he should have been able to do with his strength.
However, Sakumo still didn't understand what Hanyu was saying, because he was the "player" in Hanyu's previous argument... Sakumo was very talented, and it could even be said that he was quite strong now, but his thinking was still at the stage of fighting and killing.
It is said that even among the native "locals", there are those who think about the "big propositions" mentioned by Hanyu when they are five or six years old. However, they are heretics among heretics, and they are heretics who can do something extraordinary later.
However, Sakumo is obviously not that kind of person.
He was a very normal ninja, and his brain's thinking circuits were the most orthodox. Even disobeying orders to rescue a companion was the most outrageous behavior in his life.
Although he didn't understand it, Sakumo still felt the truth in Hanyu's words... or to be more precise, he felt the atmosphere that "seemed to make sense."
"I..." Sakumo wanted to say I understand, but he stopped talking. After all, he didn't understand. "Hanyu, I want to ask why you came to me. You know, I can't do anything except chopping people."
This question... is a bit confusing. It is because Hanyu found him that he is good at chopping people... Besides, Sakumo is not just good at chopping people, but he is extremely, exceptionally good at chopping people.
"Because among ninjas of the same generation, no one is stronger than you. Sakumo, you are the strongest ninja, and your talent is unquestionable." Hanyu gave the most correct and convincing reason without hesitation.
Such direct, unpretentious and unpretentious praise made Sakumo blush slightly. This compliment... was actually damn sweet.
It's strange, because the person who hit Sakumo's confidence was Hanyu, so when Hanyu started to praise him, he felt particularly comfortable.
Well, it's a disease and it needs to be treated.
"If you think I can help, Hanyu, then I'm willing to help you."
Finally, Sakumo gave this response to Hanyu's invitation.
Listen, a man's confession is so direct.
"It must be said that at this moment, the size of our organization has doubled, and our future is suddenly very promising," Hanyu said with a smile.
"...Hanyu, I still don't understand what kind of person you are..."
"Me? I am just me, not very special, but not very ordinary either."0
