Although the Kyuubi is powerful, it is actually unable to destroy Konoha, which is known as the leader of the five great ninja villages and has two generations of Hokage alive. However, the sacrifice of the fourth Hokage still greatly saved the lives of Konoha ninjas.
And the safety of the villagers.
There is no doubt that the fourth generation is a hero. Even if the appearance of Kyuubi is because his wife gave birth, it will not make people resent the young man with great prestige and charisma, and his sacrifice makes everyone no longer resent him.
reasons and excuses.
The yellow flash is, after all, the pride of Konoha Village.
After some rest and a temporary inventory of the battle results and losses, the funeral of the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato was held under the Hokage Rock on the morning of the fourth day.
In this troubled world, countless people die every day, so the funeral is not as complicated as the earth where Shikamaru lived in his previous life. Even though the person who died was a village head, the venue and specifications were only improved to a certain extent. Early in the morning,
The people attending the funeral moved towards the venue under the Hokage Rock. The crowd of ninjas and villagers in black clothes continued to grow. Everyone did not speak, just walked dullly. Occasionally they just nodded when they saw acquaintances.
, even after saying hello, an atmosphere of silence and sadness enveloped the whole village. This was not only because of the departure of Yondaime, a leader with extremely charismatic personality, but also because of the fact that the village was weak after the Kyuubi incident.
Not long ago, the Konoha Village, which had the Sannin, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Minato Namikaze, was unrivaled in the ninja world. Even if they went to war with other great powers, they would not fall behind. But now that the Sannin has left, Hiruzen Sarutobi
With Zhan getting old and the fourth generation Hokage passing away, Konoha Village has never been as weak as it is today. This situation makes every Konoha villager who knows this feel uneasy.
In the village, except for the ninjas who had special tasks or were on duty, everyone came silently to attend the funeral. Nara Shikaku also took his wife and Shikamaru and blended into this black torrent. The family of three wore black dresses and looked sad. In other words, except for
Except for Shikamaru's, the other two's dresses were not freshly made. Living in this war-torn world and being ninjas, they could not avoid wearing such clothes.
Following the flow of people to the venue where the funeral was held, although it had not rained yet, the weather at noon began to become gloomy and ominous.
Shikamaru, who was held in Nara Yoshino's arms, silently looked at the photo of the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato.
The man in the photo is young and handsome. Although he has a gentle smile on his lips, you can still see his persistence and persistence in his beliefs from his eyes.
"While the Sannin are still in Konoha, a man who can stand out from the talented young generation and defeat the Sannin to become the Fourth Hokage has such a huge reputation and charisma... He is so young.
A man with a deep understanding of space-time ninjutsu will be so powerful if he grows to his peak state." Shikamaru thought silently, and glanced at the sleeping blond boy not far away who was held in the arms of the Third Hokage.
"However, although your death has restored your reputation, the birth of Naruto is still the cause of the Nine-Tails losing control! Although rational people know that Naruto is just an innocent child, ignorant people cannot
I will direct my hatred and anger towards you who sacrificed for Konoha, so I can only transfer my emotions to Naruto. Is your death worth it?"
In any case, Naruto's birth was what caused the Jinchuriki's seal to loosen, and the Namikaze Minato guarding the Jinchuriki allowed the Kyuubi to escape.
Not knowing Madara's existence, the villagers could only think of the Fourth Hokage's dereliction of duty. If the Fourth Hokage were still alive, although his reputation might be greatly damaged due to this incident and he might even leave the position of Hokage, he could still do it with his strength.
To protect Naruto, although he had read the original work and knew that the Fourth Hokage died for the village, it also led to Naruto's gloomy childhood. The Fourth Hokage obviously underestimated the ugliness of human nature.
In fact, Naruto's childhood was very similar to Shikamaru's previous life. Shikamaru was born in a poor mountainous area in his previous life. He still doesn't know the specific reasons for the villagers' hostility towards him. However, God gave him extraordinary abilities.
Mind, this was one of the assets that allowed him to leave that barren land.
Although he had a hint of sympathy for Naruto, Shikamaru would not deliberately help him. How could a man who was determined to seize the No. 1 throne in the ninja world stop moving forward just because of a passerby on the roadside?
But at this time, the fourth generation had died after all, and Naruto had not yet grown up. What really attracted Shikamaru's attention was the old man wearing the cloak and hat that represented the leader of the Konoha village.
He has a slightly dark face, a few age spots on his face, and a goatee on his chin. His body is slightly stooped and his face looks tired. From the appearance alone, he looks more like an ordinary farming old man, but Lu
Maru looked at it carefully and found that his eyes did not have the slightest turbidity expected of an elderly person, but instead revealed determination and wisdom.
This is the man who is called the "Ninja Hero" and the "God of Ninja" in the ninja world, Shikamaru thought, comparing the depression in the eyes of many Konoha villagers, this old man with ordinary appearance but firm eyes,
At this moment, there is really a different kind of style!
But looking at the tiredness on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, he must have discussed it with the Fire Country Daimyo. Konoha Village will definitely maintain a restrained and appeasement policy in the next ten years. This may seem weak, but it reveals helplessness.
, these ten years are the time when the new generation of Konoha Village begins to grow up. In any case, during this period Konoha must ensure that these children can grow up safely until they become independent ninjas and inherit the will of fire.
The Third Hokage knew this, and would rather sacrifice his persistence and the prestige he had cultivated in the ninja world for decades, and use a cowardly attitude in exchange for opportunities for Konoha's development. Therefore, in the original work, the twelve little heroes were able to grow up smoothly, and finally in the future
Stand alone.
As for Danzo Shimura... Shikamaru shook his head. This was the reason why he was always suppressed by Hiruzen Sarutobi and his juniors. He couldn't see the big picture, but instead liked to make small moves. The ninjas in this world were not as lowly as Shikamaru in his previous life.
How could this kind of behavior be recognized by most people and become the leader of the Ninja Village?
…………
"What is chakra?"
"It is strength, it is will, it is the foundation of ninja, and it is the basis for the formation of ninjutsu."
"How is chakra formed?"
"Take hard exercise to temper your body, and use arduous practice to temper your will."
"Well, we also need to rely on combat to cultivate experience and fighting spirit."
"Yes!" Shikamaru replied respectfully.
Before he knew it, he had been living in this ninja world for seven years. Since Shikamaru officially started learning ninja knowledge at the age of four, similar questions and answers like the above have been performed almost every day.
However, Shikamaru's strength has not improved by leaps and bounds like cheating in the past seven years. He has not been busy improving his strength, but has enriched his theoretical aspects.
A young body limits one's growth. Overly eager behavior will only lead to overdoing it. Practicing chakra also requires a certain physical foundation. Therefore, for children under seven years old, no matter how much chakra they have, there is a limit. Naruto is often beaten by Kyuubi.
Chakra-inflicted injuries all over his body is an example. The Nine-Tails' chakra is too large compared to his own chakra, and his body has not fully grown up yet, so he cannot accept it at all.
However, chakra is ultimately connected by spiritual energy and physical energy. Shikamaru, who has the soul of a determined adult, is limited in his body and cannot hold too much chakra, but he can perform some targeted physical training.
It is still guaranteed that his chakra is ahead of most of his peers. After all, he is one of the important characters in the original work. Although it is impossible to compare with those existences that are as defiant as the illegitimate children of fate, his qualifications are not bad.
It is foreseeable that Shikamaru, who has sufficient theoretical knowledge and a good foundation, will gradually accelerate his progress as his body gradually grows. After systematic study and training in the ninja school, he should make a small leap forward.
In the original work, even if there are differences in the level of the Twelve Xiaoqiang in school, it is not a huge gap that is completely difficult to bridge. However, after graduation, the gap between the Xiaoqiang who began to grow up gradually began to widen. This is because
Physical factors limit progress.
As for being regarded as a "genius" by someone with a certain discerning eye, it is even more impossible.
In this world, the title of "genius" is very stingy. Even if you can read a thousand words at the age of three, compose poetry at the age of four, and buy Chinese cabbage at the age of five, you will still be able to get something like "smart", "well-behaved", "sensible"
Comments like "In the eyes of people in this world, a genius must have a strength that is always superior to that of his peers, and then be confirmed by countless honors and victories, and then develop a reputation that can be actively spread by enemies.
Itachi Uchiha, Kakashi and even Orochimaru, without constantly showing strength, without honor and victory, without a reputation that is feared by their enemies, will never be truly recognized and recognized as "geniuses".
Is it enough for your parents to tell others that you are a genius? Who would do such a shameful thing? You and others praise your child as a genius. The key is that this genius has no shining point. In this world, you cannot survive and keep getting stronger.
A person can only become a dead person.
Don't underestimate the title of "genius". Take Orochimaru and Jiraiya as examples. It can be found from the original work that before Orochimaru's incident in Konoha, people were more in awe of Orochimaru than Jiraiya. Sasuke and Naru
The situation of people is similar. It is reasonable for Sasuke to be strong, but it is unbelievable for Naruto to become stronger...
Maintaining a detached posture from the beginning may make people around you feel envious or jealous at first, but as you continue to improve and become stronger, people who are used to it will only accept it and start to look up to you.
If a person who was originally a low-income person is suddenly discovered to have great strength, people will probably look at him with jealousy and suspicion, always thinking that he has to be lucky to succeed. Just like the impression given by the old nobles and the nouveau riche. And if Shikamaru wants to become
Hokage must obtain this title.
However, this is a time of peace. Unlike war, where you can gain honor and fame through many battles and show strength that exceeds your peers. If you want to obtain this title, you can only focus on the ninja school and always remain the best.
Graduation with the best results? Although it is not as good as the honor on the battlefield, it is the only thing.
As for Sasuke, why do you care so much about him? He is just a child now, what is there to care about and worry about? It’s fine if he has the power that he needs to look up to for a while. If not, then he has to shrink back and be reborn.
