Chapter 399 Humanity Has Limits
"So we spread these stories not only to lure out the Otsutsuki, but also to lure out Kakashi's former teammate?"
Shikamaru seemed to have figured it out.
"That's right, when that guy realized his original plan had gone off track and he had to take the Rinnegan himself."
So, do you think he'll choose to go find the leader of Akatsuki, or go find Sasuke?
Tobirama Senju stroked his chin and smiled faintly.
In this ninja world, perhaps a small number of people have beliefs and bottom lines, but this definitely does not include the masked man.
According to the original story of the Fourth Shinobi World War that Bai Mo told him, since the masked man was able to give up the victory in the direct battle and choose to use the tail of the Eight-Tails, the Gold Horn and Silver Horn to replace the Eight-Tails and the Nine-Tails.
This shows that the masked man is someone who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, and he doesn't care about strange things like the honor of the Uchiha clan.
His only goal was to achieve his objective.
This is also known as Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Given this, there's a powerful veteran ninja, Nagato, and Sasuke, who was a genin not long ago and whose legs even trembled at the sight of Orochimaru.
Is there even a question of who to choose?
Would the masked man let Sasuke go just because he's a member of his clan?
Will they let Sasuke off the hook just because he's still a child and underage?
Do not make jokes.
It wasn't just Itachi Uchiha who killed people on the night of the massacre.
Itachi Uchiha cried his heart out after killing his parents, and felt heavy-hearted after killing his clansmen.
As for the masked man, he probably gets into a good shooting rhythm as he kills more and more.
If his grandmother were still alive, he would be able to send her to her death without hesitation.
So there's absolutely no need to worry about whether the masked man will take the bait.
He had no choice at all.
The problem now is that the fact that the masked man took the bait could also be used as bait to lure Isshiki Otsutsuki.
"Won't Sasuke be in big danger?"
Shikamaru frowned.
"Danger?"
Tobirama Senju laughed. "Are you worried that Sasuke Uchiha, who is now a reincarnation of Indra's chakra and possesses the Rinnegan, is in danger?"
Why don't you worry about yourselves first, about your families and friends? Given their strength, could they protect themselves against the Ten-Tails or the Otsutsuki?
"..."
Tobirama Senju's words were very blunt and cruel, turning what was originally a somewhat cheerful story into a somber one.
This sentence is like the classic line, "You're actually feeling sorry for your master who lives a life of luxury."
This made everyone see reality clearly.
Even under the power of the tailed beasts, they were unable to protect themselves.
And what about Sasuke?
It possesses spacetime abilities and can escape at any time.
"Shouldn't this be called, 'When the sky falls, the tall ones hold it up'?"
Ya spoke softly.
"No, it should be that everyone has their own responsibilities; with great power comes great responsibility."
Shino shook his head. "Sasuke has gained great power now, so he's going to be the bait. We're not just going to do nothing either; we need to spread these stories. That's a crucial part of the process."
"Yes, Sakura and I work hard to train in medical ninjutsu with our master, all so that we can no longer be cannon fodder and can protect our comrades and families."
only……"
Ino turned her gaze to Sakura halfway through her sentence, "It's time we woke up. Hard work and sweat don't guarantee success."
Rock Lee and Neji have both mentioned this point.
If the worst student works hard, and the genius also works hard, then the worst student still can't catch up with the genius unless the worst student works ten times harder.
But what if a genius also puts in ten or even a hundred times more effort?
Besides, humanity ultimately has its limits.
"Ino, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Sakura was stunned by her best friend's sudden words.
This doesn't sound like something Ino would say.
"I've realized that the 'opportunistic' and 'crooked methods' that Mom and Dad used to criticize are actually the right path. Sakura, what do you think?"
Ino looked at Sakura with a quiet gaze.
Sakura followed Ino's gaze and lowered her head, instantly understanding what Ino meant.
Technology changes destiny.
"I am pleased that you have such thoughts. It shows that Tsunade did not make a mistake in choosing her disciples."
Tobirama Senju was satisfied with Ino's words: "Both are chopping down trees, one person chooses to pick up a stone from the ground and start smashing the tree trunk, while the other person chooses to make an axe."
When the person behind him is making the axe, ignorant fools will accuse him of being lazy, and even if he explains, they will say he is taking shortcuts.
But of course, once that person makes the axe, their efficiency in chopping trees will increase exponentially, and not only will they be able to use it, but others will also benefit.
"Ino, you..."
"Sakura, you're willing to risk everything to find Orochimaru's potion just for the sake of someone as insignificant as Taira..."
"..."
Sakura's concerned expression froze instantly.
Is it really okay to say this in front of everyone?
And what does "merely" mean? A well-fed man doesn't know the hunger of a starving man, right?
"If you can make such a decision, then what's wrong with us pursuing power to protect our families, or even just to survive?"
Ino continued her "speech".
In Konoha's past education, while you were required to improve your strength to protect the village, you were not allowed to pursue power purely as a goal, otherwise you would be reprimanded.
"Well said, so what do you want to do?"
Tobirama Senju remained expressionless.
He figured it out: the little girl from the mountain family probably didn't want to tell anyone the stories she'd just told, so she was trying to avoid the mission.
Of course, it wasn't simply about avoiding missions; she genuinely wanted to improve.
"I also want to cultivate immortal arts."
Ino's face was resolute.
Everyone was astonished.
He then gasped.
Upon hearing this, Tobirama Senju paused for a moment, then stroked his chin, considering its feasibility.
First of all, if it's the kind of cursed seal-type sage technique that Orochimaru researched, then needless to say, if they wanted to, they could optimize it one or two more times, and it wouldn't be difficult to master.
However, such magical arts are ultimately not considered power that one has mastered, and they are somewhat different from true magical arts.
If it's genuine celestial magic, like the kind from Ryuchi Cave on Mount Myōboku, then there's a lot to say.
Ino is well-suited to Tsunade's medical ninjutsu because the Yamanaka family's secret techniques are highly compatible with medical ninjutsu, both requiring precise chakra manipulation.
Sage Mode, on the other hand, requires a certain amount of chakra and mental strength.
The secret techniques of the Yamanaka clan honed the latter, while the Yin Seal given by Tsunade honed the former, a perfect match.
"good……"
"Ino, you're taking off too?!"
Just as Tobirama Senju was about to say something, he saw Kiba take a few steps back in terror.
Not long ago, they had witnessed Naruto using Sage Mode with his face blurred out.
Kiba couldn't imagine how Ino would enter Sage Mode. Did she have to go to Orochimaru to transplant one?
terrible!
