Naruto: Starting from the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines

Uzumaki Kushina and Chiba had been exchanging letters, and Uzumaki Kushina told Chiba in detail all the changes in public opinion in Konoha during this period.

Now Hatake Sakumo has been dismissed from all his positions and is idle at home.

And Uzumaki Kushina also investigated the source of the public opinion about Hatake Sakumo.

Regarding the public opinion about Hatake Sakumo, Uzumaki Kushina found out that it was actually said by three of Hatake Sakumo's four teammates.

This time, Hatake Sakumo gave up the mission. In addition to Hatake Sakumo, the other four teammates were also punished.

One of Hatake Sakumo's teammates felt that the punishment he received was really unfair.

He felt that this matter had nothing to do with him at all. The decision was made by Hatake Sakumo. He was a subordinate and just chose to obey Hatake Sakumo's orders. He was just carrying out the orders.

Unconvinced, he told the story after drinking.

The other two teammates were actually very unconvinced, but they kept it to themselves.

Seeing that their teammates had already said it, they simply spoke out everything as well.

They said that it was all Hatake Sakumo's decision and they didn't want to give up the mission, but they chose to give up because Hatake Sakumo was their captain and they were his subordinates and could not disobey Hatake Sakumo's orders.

On the contrary, there was no movement from Tsuki, who Chiyu asked Uzumaki Kushina to pay special attention to.

Sigui lost an arm and both legs and could no longer be a ninja.

After receiving treatment at the Ninja Hospital, he was taken home by his family to recuperate and has not been seen since.

However, according to Uzumaki Kushina's observation, the other three teammates are now frequently entering and leaving Tsuki's home.

Qianyu finished reading the entire letter and closed her eyes in deep thought.

Qianyu never expected that the three teammates of Hatake Sakumo would be the ones who leaked this matter.

It's really chilling, being backstabbed by your own teammates.

It is to shift all the responsibility onto Hatake Sakumo.

Moreover, it seems that the Konoha high-level officials did not stop the three teammates of Hatake Sakumo, which means they tacitly approved of their behavior.

Since those three teammates frequently went in and out of Sigui's house, they must have wanted to persuade Sigui to blame Hatake Sakumo together.

If this is the case, Hatake Sakumo should have committed suicide during this period.

"Huh, time to go back to Konoha."

After Qianyu burned the letter in his hand, he set off directly for Konoha.

...

Six days later.

Qianyu rushed back to Konoha exhausted.

When she returned home, it happened that Uzumaki Kushina was not out on a mission.

After the two of them chatted for a while, they got down to business.

Uzumaki Kushina asked, "Chiha, is the story about Sakumo-sama that is being spread in the village true?"

Qianyu nodded: "Yes, it's true."

Chiba told Uzumaki Kushina what happened.

Uzumaki Kushina covered her mouth and said in disbelief: "How could this happen? Lord Sakumo chose to save his companions. Was it wrong?"

Qianyu said in a deep voice: "That's right, but it's also wrong."

Uzumaki Kushina didn't understand Chiba's answer.

Qianyu explained: "The Will of Fire that Konoha advocates, Lord Sakumo was not wrong to choose to save his companions, but Konoha's rules strictly prohibit abandoning the mission. Lord Sakumo was wrong to choose to save his companions."

Uzumaki Kushina frowned and said, "Why is there such a rule? Do we have to watch our companions die? No one can do this, right?"

Chiba told Uzumaki Kushina: "Not only Konoha, but all ninja villages are the same. They need a spirit to make the people in the village feel a sense of belonging to Konoha and be loyal to Konoha.

But Konoha also needs ninjas, it needs pawns who can complete their missions at all costs, and this is contrary to the Will of Fire, so strict regulations that are contrary to the Will of Fire were introduced.

If the mission is not important, then there is nothing wrong with choosing to save your companions. However, if the mission is very important, it would be a big mistake to give up the mission and choose to save your companions. "

Uzumaki Kushina felt as if a thorn was stuck in her throat: "Why are there such contradictory rules?"

Qianyu shook her head: "Actually, this is normal, Kushina. For some extremely important missions, no matter how many lives are lost or how many ninjas are sacrificed, it is not excessive. So when it is time to give up your companions, you still have to give up. In fact, this is also a manifestation of the will of fire.

But the mistake that Lord Sakumo made is not an unforgivable mistake, and the current war requires Lord Sakumo's ability."

Uzumaki Kushina's head was dizzy now: "If Lord Sakumo is so important, why do you let these public opinions develop?"

Qianyu guessed, "It may be because this wave of public opinion can no longer be suppressed. Because of the tense situation, everyone is tense and needs an outlet. Moreover, they are also dissatisfied with Lord Sakumo's actions this time, so they simply ignore it. They also want to take this opportunity to warn other ninjas about the seriousness of giving up the mission."

This is the most likely reason that Qianyu could think of at the moment for Konoha to choose to allow public opinion to ferment.

Chiyu guessed that the Konoha high-level officials might just be planning to leave Hatake Sakumo alone for the time being, and then re-employ Hatake Sakumo when public opinion has calmed down a little.

However, the Konoha high-level officials did not expect that Hatake Sakumo would choose to commit suicide and die for the will of fire in his heart.

The death of Hatake Sakumo was a heavy blow to Konoha.

Konoha's high-end combat power is already stretched thin, and one of its own people has been stabbed in the back.

Uzumaki Kushina sighed, "It's really complicated. By the way, why don't you go check on your disciple? Sakumo-sama's affairs have affected him. Every time he goes out, he gets pointed at."

Chiba nodded: "I know, I'll go find Kakashi now."

Chiba said goodbye to Uzumaki Kushina and went to look for Kakashi.

The Hatake family residence.

Chiba found Kakashi who was training alone.

Kakashi seemed to be venting his anger, hitting the wooden stake with his fists without any method.

"I have never taught you this kind of training method."

Kakashi looked up suddenly, and when he saw that it was Chiyu, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was immediately replaced by gloom.

"Teacher Qianyu..."

Chiba walked up to Kakashi and asked, "How is Lord Sakumo?"

Kakashi looked towards a room and said with some disappointment, "Father has been locking himself in the room and has not left the house for a while. Even meals have to be brought in by me. Every time I enter the room, Father is lying on the bed. No matter how I call him, he ignores me."

Chiba looked at Kakashi and asked, "What about you, how are you doing?"

Kakashi forced a smile and said, "I'm fine."

Qianyu asked again: "So what do you think? Lord Sakumo chose to abandon the mission and save his companions. Was it right or wrong?"

Kakashi's breath caught in his throat and he lowered his head in silence.
