Chapter 413 Dual Kamui Obito (page 12)

"I just took a look around, do you have any questions?"

Hearing Qingzhi ask this, Itachi was stunned. It seemed that Qingzhi brought him here not as an impromptu move, but with a special purpose. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said he didn't feel anything.

Qing Pheasant prompted: "What do you think these wandering girls do to make money?"

Itachi was young, but his mind was very mature. He thought of something, and his expression turned ugly: "The flesh."

Qingzhi continued to ask: "Do you think this kind of thing should be promoted?"

Itachi firmly denied: "No."

Qingzhi smiled and said: "Then if even a child like you thinks this kind of thing is immoral, then why does this kind of place still exist openly and openly, and can even be opened with great fanfare in the most prosperous city in the Land of Fire? It is obviously immoral. But adults are accustomed to this kind of thing. Except here, this kind of custom industry is very popular in other places."

Itachi's expression was startled, he really hadn't thought about this kind of thing seriously.

"When we become accustomed to this kind of thing, it is a terrible thing." Qingzhi sighed: "It's like us ninjas are born as tools to kill people. Who are the people who give this definition? Have you ever thought about it?"

Through this conversation, Itachi understood that Aokiji was teaching him some truth.

Qingzhi interrupted with a digression: "Itachi, let me tell you something."

Itachi pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"In our era, in order to support the war, the Dai Ming lived frugally and only ate one meal. What they saved was used for military expenses. I think you should know this history."

Itachi nodded.

Qing Pheasant asked: "What do you think of this matter?

Itachi looked stunned.

Qingzhi smiled and said: "Don't take my factors into account, speak objectively and factually."

Itachi thought for a while and said honestly: "From an objective point of view, the daimyo did an impeccable job in this matter."

"What you see is just what others let you see." Qingzhi smiled: "I'll tell you the real thing."

"The real story?"

Qing Zhi laughed and said: "The so-called eating only one meal means that the daimyo does eat one meal, but what most people don't know is that one meal the daimyo eats is worth four meals."

When Itachi heard this, he immediately felt that he had been deceived, and his face turned dark on the spot.

Qingzhi continued: "If that's the case, forget it. What's really shameful is that some innocent girls believed this nonsense and even sold their bodies, that is, going to the arcade to make money for the country's military expenses as a prostitute. , when these prostitutes grow old and lose their lust, the state will kick these poor women away. Not only does it not acknowledge the matter, it even wants these prostitutes to die, as if this can cover up this ugly episode. history."

After hearing the above, Itachi clenched his fists, became emotional, his body shook violently, and he gritted his teeth and cursed: "Asshole."

Itachi is usually a person who doesn't show his emotions, but when he heard the ugly behavior of the Fire Country, he even couldn't help but say swear words, which shows how angry he was at this time.

"To put it bluntly, don't these people in power know the dangers of these arcades and casinos? No, of course these people in power know. The reason why these people in power tolerate the existence of these things until now is that they just want to use these things to make money and release their own Inner desires, as for the lives of ordinary people, they don’t care.”

Qingzhi snorted coldly: "When I unify the entire Fire Country, the first thing I will do is rectify this unhealthy social atmosphere."

Weasel was in awe: "Uncle Qing Pheasant is really a great man."

Aokiji taught: "Itachi, remember, the most despicable thing in this world is in the name of nobleness, but in the end, it is something shameful."

Under Qing Pheasant's earnest instruction, Itachi said seriously: "I remember, Uncle Qing Pheasant."

"Okay, let me give you a test to see how well you learn." Qingzhi acted like a teacher: "I won't talk about it from afar, but I will talk about the Will of Fire that you are most familiar with."

"Will of Fire?"

"Ah."

Itachi thought for a while and summarized its core into two words: "dedication."

Qingzhi nodded: "Yeah, almost."

"Uncle Aokiji, what you really want to say is that the higher-ups in Konoha are using this banner to fool the people below."

Qingzhi smiled: "You have been with me for a long time, and you have become a lot smarter. Yes, the core of the Will of Fire is dedication, but this is the original concept."

"Original concept?"

"Concepts vary from person to person. Weapons can both kill people and protect people. It depends on how you use them." Aoki said with emotion: "Although some of the first Hokage's methods are a bit naive in my opinion, it is undeniable that he He is a truly great man, and I admire him very much. But he may not have thought that after his death, his values ​​would be changed."

"Substitute one thing for another?"

"As I said, the original concept of the Will of Fire was dedication, but it has slightly changed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's generation and has become a tool to maintain the ruling class."

"If you pay attention, you will find that not only we in Konoha are talking about this set of things, but other villages are also talking about this set of values, such as the will of the wind in Sunagakure Village. Wherever the gravel flies, the wind continues. Unconsciously, or perhaps, the will of water in Wuyin Village, where the mist is filled, the water is endless. What has changed is the content, but what has not changed is the core. It is still a slogan full of benevolence and righteousness, so that the people below are willing to do it. The village sacrifices everything.”

"Of course, I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with dedicating money to the village, but in the end, the village is just a concept, and it is people who actually implement it."

After hearing this, Itachi was greatly shocked: "As expected of Uncle Qingzhi, after hearing what you said, I suddenly became enlightened about some things."

"Don't say it too early. Let me give you an example and then test you." Qing Zhi smiled and said, "You should have heard about White Fang's death."

Itachi recalled it and said with some emotion: "During the mission, White Fang gave up the mission for the sake of his companions, which caused great losses to the village. Unable to bear the condemnation of his companions, he finally committed suicide."

"Well, that's pretty much what happened."

Weasel said in surprise: "Uncle Qingzhi, do you mean there is a hidden reason for this suicide?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I use this example?" Qingzhi stood up, "The answer lies in what I said before."

Itachi lowered his head and closed his eyes, rubbed his lips with his fingers, and murmured: "What we see is just what others let us see..."

"I'm going to the bathroom, think about it slowly, and tell me when you get back." Qingzhi went to the side for a while. When he came back, Itachi still didn't think about it. He looked apologetic and felt stupid: "I'm sorry, Uncle Qingzhi. …”

"It doesn't matter. You can't think of it. It's not that you're stupid, but it's a reflection of your kindness. You think about the village too well. There are some things that you subconsciously don't dare to think about, or even don't want to think about."

Itachi let out a small breath.

"You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. You may not use it, but you must not understand it."
