He also understood his own heart. He was not a true pacifist, but an ordinary person with his own selfish desires. As long as he imagined for a moment, after his brother was hurt, he would definitely become furious and crazy. When Itachi
I have to admit the 'truth' in the words of my clan brother!
"So, will this world never usher in peace? Just like our clan and Konoha, we are bound to continue fighting forever? Let hatred be passed down from generation to generation, and then carry out endless killings?"
There was a very confused look in the depths of Itachi's eyes, and he murmured in a low voice.
"Yes, from this aspect, as long as humans exist, the world will never usher in true peace, fighting, killing, and hatred. This is a reality that humans can never avoid, but it cannot be completely eliminated.
But it can be suppressed, reduced, and even controlled within a certain limit to a great extent!"
Shoji paused for a moment, and what he said next made Itachi look very disappointed at first, but then he changed the subject and said something that made Itachi stunned for a moment and then happy.
"Can hatred be suppressed, reduced, or even controlled? General Sang?"
Itachi widened his eyes, stared at the general in front of him with a hint of hope, and asked in a somewhat urgent tone.
"Well, it can be controlled. As long as everything is brought into one, you can do it!"
The general stretched out a palm, then slowly retracted four of the five fingers, leaving only the last finger, and said loudly.
"Become one?"
Itachi blinked and asked as if he didn't understand.
"Yes, let there no longer be so many countries and so many villages in this world. As long as there is only one country left, one ninja village, and there will no longer be people from other villages or people from foreign countries, then the struggle for interests will
It will be reduced a lot, and the hatred in the past will be eliminated in one or two generations, and after forty or fifty years, by that time, the world will usher in peace in the true sense!"
The general nodded and said in a very affirmative tone.
"A country? A ninja village? True peace?"
Itachi murmured to himself in a low voice, and as he spoke, the look in his pupils became brighter and brighter at this moment.
But only at that moment.
Itachi seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Shoji with a hesitant look on his face and said, "But Shoji-san, our clan was once a member of Konoha and one of the founders of the village. Why did it happen later?"
"This is a matter of philosophy. Itachi, the biggest reason why our clan and Konoha have reached this point was laid down as early as when the village was founded. You should know very well that when our clan came to Konoha
At this moment, except for the first Hokage, almost everyone is either hostile to us or afraid of us. No one, no clan is really on good terms with our Uchiha clan. When the contradiction has been buried from the beginning, what we all
The peace maintained is only superficial!"
"Of course, there are only the two of us here, so I just let it go and said that to reach this point, the higher-ups of Konoha are responsible, and our clan is also responsible. This is a problem that is difficult to truly define. We really need to delve into it.
, will be endless, the two are not directly connected, and as I have just said, a country or a village can only control disputes and contradictions to a minimum, but cannot really eliminate or put them aside.
Ignoring our clan, do the five major countries and the five major ninja villages still maintain relative harmony and stability within themselves? And what if the entire ninja world becomes one country and one ninja village?"
"Can we just enlarge it? This is undoubtedly the path to peace we want to pursue! Although it may seem a bit hypocritical, it is a very real path, isn't it?"
The problems of Konoha and Uchiha are indeed difficult to describe in a few words. If you really want to talk about it, each aspect has its own reason. Don't say that the general himself can't explain clearly. Even if he can, the significance is not very big. After all, it has to be
The real problem is how to view the entire ninja world!
"I understand what you mean, General Sang!"
It wasn't that he had only a half-knowledge, nor was he pretending to understand, but that he really understood the general's words. Itachi also found his own answer at this moment, although there was still a little doubt and confusion (mainly focused on his own clan and his family).
On the issue of Konoha.)
But Itachi must admit that the words spoken by his clan brother are the most true and effective at this stage. At least in the ninja world, the disputes within a country and a ninja village have less hatred than those abroad.
, and it’s still a huge reduction!
Even if there is any contradiction.
There is still the possibility for internal staff to negotiate and talk to resolve disputes.
Foreigners and people from other villages often have the highest probability of fighting each other. Once bloodshed or even death occurs, hatred will be laid.
Generation after generation, the cycle goes on endlessly.
"But this road is difficult, General-san!"
Itachi, who has seen this clearly, can also see clearly how difficult it is to 'unify the ninja world'. Generally speaking, the power competition between the five major countries is in a balance of power situation. It is difficult to say that one side can truly
Completely overwhelming one party. After so many years, only Konoha in the era when the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara existed had such strength. After the two passed away one after another, Konoha could at best have the power to overwhelm the other four major ninja villages, but
He no longer has the ability to destroy the four major ninja villages and unify the ninja world.
"It is difficult, but it is not without opportunities. Although such a choice is destined to be full of thorns and blood along the way, if we want to truly usher in a stable future, this is the only feasible path.
!”
The general nodded and said.
Listening to General's words, Itachi also nodded silently.
You must know that when he was brought to the battlefield by Fugaku at the age of four, he was already very aware of the cruelty and bloody nature of war!
The road to unifying the ninja world will definitely not be as peaceful as previous ninja wars, and may even be countless times bloodier!
Taking the initiative to kill in order to seek peace seems to be a very contradictory thing.
But Itachi could understand the truth behind it.
"Moreover, as long as we are stronger, we can avoid more unnecessary sacrifices. We may not necessarily reach the level of the first Hokage or Madara's ancestor, but as long as we can get close, we can do this more easily!"
"For this reason, we can only move forward, whether it is for ourselves or for the so-called righteousness deep in our hearts!"
Jiang Si pointed to his heart, and at this moment, an extremely bright color flashed from the depths of his pupils.
Itachi met the general's gaze, and under the bright moonlight, a look of determination appeared on his small face, and he nodded heavily.
"Um!"
He answered with those very childish yet extremely firm words!
Not necessarily the correct question and answer.
It may also be a choice that brings disaster.
But no matter what!
In this life, under the leadership of Shoji, Itachi, the young man who caused a bloody storm in the original work, will definitely embark on a completely different path!
