276, Itachi's Thinking, General Secretary's Answer
This is indeed a world where people eat people.
But 99% of people are still 'forced' to kill, rather than taking the initiative to kill. They make such a choice to protect themselves and those they cherish, regardless of high-sounding reasons such as justice and peace.
Just because I want to live well in this world, that's all!
At least Shoji has always held such a realistic attitude. When guiding Itachi, Deidara, and Kurotsuchi, he was more or less transmitting this idea. How the three of them view it and how they will grow in the future, naturally
It's up to their own choice.
But at this stage, there is no doubt that it will be affected by the general.
The three people who have adapted step by step are gradually losing their youthfulness and immaturity. In the first C-level mission, there will still be hesitation, nausea, and even trembling among the three people. As experience accumulates,
, is also becoming more and more mature.
This is not a question of whether it is right or not, but a question of what they must do!
Kurotsuchi and Deidara may still be at a relatively confused and even numb stage, but Itachi is already more mature and able to think about these issues independently. This world is contradictory, chaotic and extremely incorrect. Ever since the clan left the wood
Since childhood, Itachi has been thinking about this question, why are there constant disputes and fighting between people?
He once asked his father about this issue.
Fugaku did not answer directly, but let Itachi think for himself. Now that he joined the team led by General, Itachi undoubtedly found another being who could guide him, and once again completed the task of guarding the caravan, killing
After getting rid of the bandits who came to rob.
On the way back to the village, taking a break.
While Kurotsuchi and Deidara both fell into a deep sleep.
Itachi came to the side of General who was keeping vigil at night.
Ask the general about your deepest doubts.
"Why do people hate each other so much? Are there such constant disputes? Why has no one ever considered sitting down and having a good talk? The country is like this, the village is like this, our Uchiha clan was like this and Konoha was also like this. What on earth is this?
Why? General Sang!"
Seeing Itachi approaching, Shoji could probably guess that his talented young man must have some doubts and ask him.
In the original work, Shisui is Itachi's leader. It is even an exaggeration to say that Shisui is not without any responsibility for Itachi's crazy choice later. If he could guide Itachi in a more correct way, he would not have died.
if.
Itachi probably wouldn't make that choice.
The tragic ending of the family's destruction not only represents Itachi's madness, but also represents Itachi's despair. It is precisely because he can't see any possibility that For his brother, Itachi raised that sharp knife.
And the bloody butcher knife, this is a kind of twisted love.
Of course, the main responsibility lies with Itachi, but the environment and Shisui, including the Third Generation, Danzo and even Itachi's own parents, Fugaku and Mikoto, don't have any responsibility at all?
No!
From Shoji's point of view, these people are more or less related. The difference is only in the size of the responsibility. Itachi is undoubtedly a genius. When he was young, he was just a blank sheet of paper. The older people need to shoulder the responsibility of leading.
Responsibility!
As I have said before, the general will never flaunt himself as righteous, let alone say that what he does is right.
All his actions are based on his own interests!
Shoji has no intention of discussing or interfering with other people's choices, but since Itachi belongs to the Uchiha clan, Shoji definitely hopes that Itachi can go on the path of safeguarding the interests of the clan, rather than being a pick-pocket.
Therefore, at this moment, at such a delicate time point, Shoji's expression became very serious when he heard Itachi's question.
After pondering for a while.
"Because of profit!"
The general also looked at Itachi with an extremely serious and stern expression and replied.
He won't deal with Itachi just because of his young age. Even if he doesn't have the memory of his previous life in the original novel, Shoji has always felt that the more he faces children, the more he has to deal with them with a serious attitude, because your every
Every word and deed will greatly affect a child's growth and his future choices!
"Benefit?"
Itachi frowned slightly, looked at General with an expression that seemed to be understanding, but also seemed to be confused, and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it is because of interests. To put it bluntly, humans are actually just higher-level creatures. Compared with other creatures in this world, the only thing we have more is that we have wisdom, but other
There’s no difference!”
Shoji looked at Itachi and said in a slightly low voice.
"Many people always feel that the reason why there are constant disputes between countries, and between ninja villages and ninja villages, is because the accumulated hatred is too deep. This cannot be said to be a wrong understanding, but it must be said that this is only superficial.
reason!"
"The core reason still lies in the struggle for interests!"
"Otherwise, where did the first dispute come from? After all, there was no so-called hatred issue at that time, right? Itachi!"
Si's hands were crossed in front of him, and his eyes became extremely deep at this moment.
The words that speak directly to the deepest part of people's hearts. Although Itachi is only eight years old, he can still easily understand the true meaning of these words when Shiji speaks so thoroughly and clearly. And it is precisely because of this that Itachi
Instead, he showed an expression of disbelief and said, "Is it because of this?"
"Isn't this enough? Itachi, the human heart is very greedy, and interests do not necessarily always point to a certain thing, but refer to the most instinctive pursuit and greed of the human heart. Just like you, isn't there something that cannot be
Something that is deprived of you? There is no existence that once touched, will protect it at all costs, or even take revenge after being destroyed, even if it turns into a demon? "
Shoji looked at Itachi and said what he said next.
Itachi was shocked all over again.
Respect yourself and others and think in their shoes.
This is what the general said later.
It was Itachi who really woke up. Yes, he himself also had the reverse scale hidden deep in his heart. That was an existence that no one could touch. That was his younger brother, who was still only three years old at this time.
Uchiha Sasuke who is under 10 years old.
Itachi simply imagined the scene where someone hurt his brother and even caused his brother's death. Itachi had the urge to destroy the entire world, and it was when such thoughts emerged deep in his heart.
.
Itachi himself always had a shuddering feeling.
He has always considered himself a pacifist!
I want to find every way to eliminate hatred and usher in true peace in the world.
