Ninja World Live Stream: Was the Sixth Hokage really that powerful?

Page 19

[8L: Before this book was published, I didn't even know that the Sixth Hokage's father was the famous White Fang of Konoha.]

[9L: I didn't know at first either.]

[10L: I agree with the comment above. It seems that when the ninja forum first opened, someone mentioned that the Sixth Hokage's strength, background, qualifications, etc., were not enough to qualify him as Hokage, and then people on the forum started digging into the Sixth Hokage's background.]

[11L: How is his skill lacking? He's clearly a four-time champion!]

[12L: That's impressive experience too! Ten years in the Dark Division!]

[13L: Still the reliable right-hand man of the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Hokage!]

[14L: So, since these two points can't be used as a basis for argument, they'll talk about their background.]

[OP: I was also following what happened back then. Some people just inexplicably idolize the scions of powerful families.]

[15L: Yeah, I think it's pretty good for an ordinary person to become Hokage. Besides, the Sixth Hokage was part of the Hokage faction, and he was the Fourth Hokage's student.]

[16L: Since there's nothing else to criticize, just criticize their background.]

[17L: Then, as they dug deeper, they discovered that his father was actually the White Fang of Konoha! The opponents were completely dumbfounded. It's unbelievable.]

"Konoha's White Fang?" Naruto scratched his cheek, unable to recall the name no matter how hard he tried, then turned to Sasuke and asked, "Do you know him?"

Sasuke frowned in thought, then shook his head. "I don't remember."

"Who is Konoha's White Fang?" Xiao Li asked Kai-sensei curiously.

But they found that Teacher Kai's expression was strange; a kind of incomprehensible and obscure emotion flashed across his eyes, which were usually only youthful.

“White Fang… he was a hero,” Akai thought, overwhelmed with emotion as he recalled the gentle, smiling white-haired man who had encouraged him.

In the Hokage's meeting room.

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, noticed that Kakashi was in a bad mood and considerately gave him some personal space.

Who is Konoha's White Fang?

The elders' expressions turned somewhat unpleasant upon hearing the second-generation leader's question.

I never expected that someone who has been dead for so long could still cause such a stir.

They also played a role in fueling the White Fang incident.

Tobirama frowned, not receiving a response, and when he looked up, he saw the guilty expressions on Mitokado Homura's and Mitokado's faces.

Depend on!

Is it going to be another wrongful conviction like the Uchiha case that needs to be overturned?

His disciples...

Tobirama really didn't know what to do.

"What about the monkey? How do you say that?"

He shifted his gaze to Hiruzen.

Hiruzen took two puffs of his cigarette, his eyes clouded, "White Fang..." His thoughts suddenly drifted back to more than twenty years ago.

[18L: Is Konoha's White Fang really that strong?]

[19L: The person upstairs is short-sighted. Konoha's White Fang was a hero of World War II. His reputation once surpassed that of the Legendary Sannin and the Hokage, and he was even bestowed the Hokage's half-sleeve.]

[20L: The man with one foot in the Hokage throne.]

[21L: He was the most likely candidate to become the Fourth Hokage when World War II ended.]

[22L: Ah, then why is it that I haven't heard of his name much lately?]

[23L: Because he committed suicide, specifically due to mission failure, his name isn't in history textbooks.]

[24L: But that was before. I reckon the new textbooks will have it.]

[25L: Is it because he's the Sixth Hokage's father?]

[26L: The person upstairs is completely wrong!]

[27L: It's true that the death of the Sixth Hokage, the White Fang of Konoha, has been brought up again.]

[28L: But it's not included in textbooks because his son is Hokage.]

[OP: It's like what Naruto's Tale author wrote, his death was a form of resistance!]

Is death a form of resistance?

Kakashi returned to his empty dormitory, hung his head low in a daze, and upon closer inspection, one could see that his fingertips were trembling slightly.

Memories from many years ago were attacking his mind.

The image of the father dying in the thunder, the blood flowing down in a winding path.

Obito's resolute departing figure.

"In the world of ninjas, those who don't follow the rules are called trash, but those who don't cherish their comrades are even worse than trash!"

Obito's powerful voice and the crashing boulder.

I see,

That's the message you wanted to convey from the beginning, Father.

He said exactly the same thing as Obito.

Obito has always been right.

If he hadn't been so stubborn back then, would none of what happened later have occurred?

He has disappointed many people.

Father's, Obito's, Rin's, teacher's, teacher's wife's.

He couldn't do anything, so he really was just a useless piece of trash.

In Kakashi's bluish-gray pupils, the light gradually faded, leaving only an astonishing stillness.

That's why Obito won't come back.

. . . . . .

"Hey, do you know what that means?"

A ninja who had heard of White Fang's name asked quietly.

"Why is White Fang's death considered a form of resistance? Wasn't he committing suicide to atone for his failed mission?"

The ninja next to him had a slightly furious expression.

Thinking about the reason for White Fang's mission failure, I had some guesses in my mind.

"You'll see as you watch. I have a feeling there will be an analysis above."

Not far away, Nara Shikaku, who heard these sounds, took a deep breath.

"Times have truly changed," the death of White Fang—who can say that they, as ninjas, were not somewhat affected?

The cold, hard rules take precedence over companions.

It should be wrong in the first place.

He began to look forward to the revolutionary new world that would come to be.

[29L: That's right! He's a hero!]

[30L: What do you mean? Please be more specific!]

[OP: Let me summarize. I personally recommend reading the original work; Naruto's Tale is really well-written!]

[Original Poster: In the mission that led to White Fang's death, White Fang faced a difficult choice: continue the mission and abandon his companions; or save his companions and abandon the mission.]

[OP: Obviously, White Fang chose the latter.]

[OP: Abandoning the mission caused some losses to the village.]

[OP: Then the villagers pointed at White Teeth and started cursing at him.]

[OP: Saying he abandoned the mission is like calling him a useless ninja or something.]

[OP: Even the companion he saved turned around and blamed him for saving him.]

[OP: Not long after, White Tooth committed suicide.]

[31L: Holy crap, isn't this an ingrate?]

[32L: Exactly! You save someone and still get scolded? You might as well just die; living is just a waste of food.]

[33L: Those who criticize White Fang are being unreasonable. When he was fighting desperately on the battlefield, you didn't thank him, but the moment he makes a mistake, you want to trample him into the mud.]

[34L: That's just how people are; they enjoy dragging those unattainable geniuses down to hell, watching those chosen ones fall from grace.]

Some ninjas who had previously criticized White Fang shut up and remained silent, their cheeks flushed red with embarrassment, wishing they could dig a hole and bury themselves.

Some people, however, remain unrepentant to the end.

"The mission failed and I can't even say it?"

There are also some people,

He had completely forgotten about this trivial matter, only suddenly remembering it when Tianmu mentioned White Fang this time.

But they didn't take it seriously and forgot about it.

Since the person is already dead, what's the use of regretting it?

Besides, White Fang committed suicide because he couldn't stand the rumors and gossip; it was because he was too fragile.

If you commit suicide after saying just a few words, what kind of ninja are you?

Most people are such ignorant and selfish good-for-nothings.

[35L: Disgusting.]

[36L: If it were up to me, I'd be a rogue ninja.]

[37L: That's why you can't become White Teeth.]
