Chapter 61 Intentions and Questions

It's about why we must insist on continuing the mission.

He still doesn't believe that Kakashi is still the so-called passionate and righteous person. It should even be said that such words are naturally incompatible with ninjas. Isn't it ridiculous to talk about passion and justice in a profession that exists for fighting?

In the original work, when Nagato invaded Konoha and subdued Naruto, the conversation he had with Naruto completely revealed the nature of the ninja village and ninjas in this world.

The three ninja world wars are real.

The sufferings suffered by many small countries are not false.

Kakashi, a ninja with blood on his hands, is definitely not a charitable person. There must be a profound reason for continuing to carry out the mission of the Land of Waves.

Although this does not seem to be a very important issue, if possible, Menma still hopes to figure it out, otherwise it will be a bit uncomfortable to hold it in his heart.

But now the opportunity has been taken away by the second pillar, so he can only wait for a while.

Anyway, the night is long and there is plenty of time.

Kakashi and Sasuke left quickly and came back quickly. On the surface, Sasuke still looked calm.

It is likely that Kakashi told Sasuke the truth of the past. After all, it is not something that needs to be concealed.

"Hey, Menma, do you have any questions for me?"

It was also when he saw the two people coming back.

Before Menma was about to say something.

Kakashi, with his hands in his pockets, looked at Menma with a smile and spoke in advance.

"Uh? Yes, Mr. Kakashi, if you don't mind explaining it to me."

After a moment of surprise, Menma immediately replied.

"Well, come on."

Kakashi nodded, and then took the lead to walk outside again, and Menma also stood up and followed.

Naruto and Sakura, who stayed on the spot, looked at the backs of Kakashi and Menma who left with a touch of surprise.

"Eh? Menma also has questions for Kakashi? Hey, Sasuke, what questions did you ask Kakashi?"

Naruto looked at Sasuke with a hint of curiosity.

"Nothing."

Sasuke looked at Naruto indifferently, and after saying these three words, he walked to the window sill and sat down, unwilling to say anything more.

Naruto seemed to realize that this might involve personal issues, so he didn't ask any more questions, but just muttered in his heart, "What a cold guy."

Not to mention the three people who stayed in the living room.

Kakashi and Menma, who stepped out of the house, also came to the edge of the coast on the left side of the house.

"If I'm not mistaken, you want to ask me why I continue to carry out this mission, right? Menma."

Kakashi stopped and turned to look at Menma, as if asking, but with a firm tone.

"Yes, Mr. Kakashi, I won't go into details about the reasons. The attack of the hostile jonin from the Hidden Mist Village can explain the problem. It's understandable if Naruto is a little more passionate, but Mr. Kakashi, you have no reason to do this, right?"

Menma looked directly at Kakashi, not hiding his doubtful attitude at all.

"I understood your attitude before. In fact, the reason is very simple, Menma, the Land of Waves is too close to our Konoha, and the first attacker was still a Mist Ninja. I said this, with your intelligence, you should understand what I mean, right?"

"Strategic location, right?"

Menma was stunned at first, then seemed to react, and replied thoughtfully.

It is said to be a country, but the area of ​​the Land of Waves is really too small, and the population of the entire country may not be tens of thousands, but the geographical location is too important. For the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Mist Village, this is an extremely important strategic location.

Especially after the destruction of the Whirlpool Country and the Whirlpool Village, the Wave Country became the most important and most contested bridgehead for the Mist Ninja to invade the Fire Country. Once the Mist Ninja's power can reach deep into the country, or even control the Wave Country.

The Mist Ninja can use this as a seesaw, and it will be easy to invade the Fire Country.

This must be something that Konohagakure does not want to see.

As a ninja village located in the center of the ninja world, the defense pressure it needs to bear is already very high, and now it does not want to continue to increase the pressure on national defense.

Before, Menma's thinking was restricted, and he did not think of this side. Now Kakashi only said this, and Menma can react.

"Well, that's what I mean, so it is necessary to come here to confirm, but I didn't expect it to be a traitor like Zabuza. This is indeed a little unexpected, and this is also my mistake."

Kakashi shook his head gently and said.

This is indeed the reason, but Kakashi is also very confident in himself. He really thinks that with him, everything is under control, and it is good to give Menma, Naruto, and Sasuke more training. However, the subsequent process is indeed beyond Kakashi's expectations.

Although the previous battle results were good, if Kakashi knew from the beginning that the enemy would be a person of Zabuza's level, he would really think twice before acting.

After all, having the ability to back up and let the team members train is different from falling into danger that is beyond their control.

"Rebel ninja? Does that mean you are no longer related to the Hidden Mist Village?"

Menma continued to ask.

"Well, at present, it can be said so, but it is not completely certain, so we'd better stay here for a while, and just in time to escort Dazna-san to finish building the bridge."

"Then why don't we go directly to the person in question, Kakashi-sensei."

Menma looked at Kakashi with a sharp gaze.

"Hmm? The person in question?"

Kakashi was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously.

"Yes, it's the person in question, the big businessman who attempted to control the Land of Waves - Cardo. From him, we can definitely get the most comprehensive and detailed information, right?"

Menma smiled slightly and said.

"Well, this is indeed a good choice."

After all, he is just a businessman.

Kakashi naturally would not think of Cardo subconsciously before, but with Menma's light touch, Kakashi can easily associate Cardo with the role he played in this incident. Who knows if he really has very valuable information!

You know, a businessman like Cardo, without a certain official background, it is definitely difficult to get by.

This is a very common operation in the world where Menma lived in his previous life, that is, the combination of capital and power.

In this world.

Menma does not think there will be exceptions.

"Then how do you think we should find this Cardo?"

Kakashi looked at Menma with interest and said.

This is obviously a plan in mind, and he wants to test Menma.

"As long as Mr. Cardo's goal remains unchanged, it is still very easy to find him, and I believe that there must be a 'companion' of Mr. Cardo in this town."

Menma said in a very affirmative tone.

"Haha, then the investigation work is left to you, Menma, there should be no problem, right?"

Kakashi said with a slight smile.

"Well, there is no problem at all, Mr. Kakashi, he is just an ordinary person, just wait for my good news!"

Menma said confidently with his head raised.
