Chapter 32: The Third Hokage's Thoughts

The Third Hokage fell into silence.

Danzo's words made some sense.

Ninja was a profession that mainly focused on killing, and there wasn't much humanitarian concern.

When the three major ninja villages of Konoha, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure fought in the Land of Rain, they threw all kinds of large-scale ninjutsu casually, destroying the country and leaving countless civilians homeless and dead. How many people died? No one cared.

In order to win the war, ninjas would use any means necessary.

Death was not the end. Many times, a lot of information could be read from a corpse.

No ninja village would refuse to obtain important information or ninjutsu from a ninja's brain.

The Second Hokage's Shadow Clone Technique and Water Trumpet Technique, Kirigakure's Hiding in Mist Technique and Water Prison Technique were all spread out in this way.

The enemy's corpses were important, and the corpses of their own ninjas were even more important.

Inoichi's intelligence department often made a big fuss over the corpse of one of their own ninjas, but there was no way around it, the corpse had to be snatched back.

In Saving Private Ryan, at least one living person could be saved. On the ninja side, several people often died, and in the end, they snatched back a corpse. No matter how you thought about it, it was a loss, but they couldn't not snatch it back.

The Water Prison Technique could perfectly solve this problem. What should you do when you are surrounded by enemies, cannot escape, and have important information in your brain?

Don't worry, don't get angry! The characteristic of the Water Prison Technique was that the outside could not be attacked, and the people inside could not get out. Give yourself a Water Prison Technique, then recall the峥嵘岁月of the past, and an explosive tag could solve all problems. If one was not enough, then two.

If your head was gone, how could you read the information? You wouldn't use neurons to store information, would you? Guy's taijutsu didn't use his brain, it was indeed based on body memory, but he was the only one, and the others didn't have this ability.

Danzo spoke earnestly and persuaded repeatedly, almost putting up a banner that said "Learn Second Hokage Water Release, Build a Happy Konoha Home Together".

The Third Hokage thought for a long time, and finally rejected this suggestion: "No, I can't let the people in the village go to the battlefield with this kind of thinking. This is not in line with the Will of Fire. Ninjas are not tools, not cold numbers on registration cards, they are people! I will not issue such an order."

He spoke decisively, leaving no room for compromise.

If a ninja was captured, they should still be rescued if possible. Always let the subordinate ninjas commit suicide? Who would want to be a ninja in the future? Besides, it was not a time of war now, and there were no large-scale conflicts. Even if they were captured, they could be rescued through diplomacy and exchange of interests. Suicide was not advisable, and it was not in line with the Will of Fire.

"Naive! Hiruzen, your naivety will ruin Konoha Village one day!" Danzo cursed and left the Hokage Building.

The Third Hokage rejected the suggestion of using the Water Prison Technique for suicide, but he still supported ninjas who had the conditions to learn the Water Prison Technique.

This was a C-rank water release ninjutsu, and its difficulty level was considered to be at the Chunin level. As long as you had water attribute chakra, it was not difficult to learn.

Currently, there were no major wars, and there were only small-scale conflicts between the ninja villages of various countries. The more such occasions, the greater the role of the Water Prison Technique.

Unless the difference in strength or number of people was particularly large, it was not difficult to use the Water Prison Technique to trap the strongest one among the enemies at the beginning, and then use the upper驷to fight the middle驷, the middle驷to fight the lower驷, and lock the victory.

The Third Hokage stood by the window, watching Danzo walk out of the building and then disappear into the darkness.

This old partner had been too active recently. Was he seeing that he was old, or had he made contact with those guys outside the village again?

Back then, when the Second Hokage died, he left a will for him to take over as the Third Hokage.

The newly appointed Third Hokage was truly troubled both internally and externally. There was a war outside, and those ninja families in the village didn't believe in the so-called will at all. You said it was the Second Hokage's will, besides you juniors, who else saw it and heard it at that time?

The biggest problem was, why was the Hokage position of the Senju clan handed over to your Sarutobi clan?

Without Danzo and the support of the fourteenth generation Ino-Shika-Cho, it would have been really difficult for him to stabilize the situation.

The Third Hokage had no hostility towards the ninja families. He himself came from the Sarutobi family and was a member of a ninja family. Without the unconditional support of the family, he would never have reached this point. But as the leader of the village, he naturally had to suppress the ninja families, suppress Danzo, who had become too big to fail, and support civilian ninjas.

The power of the ninja families was too great. Once the main branch of the Hokage lineage underwent a huge change, drastic changes might occur. Civilian ninjas were the foundation of the village.

He wanted to teach more ninjutsu to civilian ninjas, but not to mention the ninja families, even his own Sarutobi family did not agree. After so many years, the ninja school could only teach the most common three body techniques. After graduation, they might have the opportunity to come into contact with the five basic nature transformations, but it was only possible, and there was a high probability that they would not.

Did Ino use a bunch of ninjutsu "clattering" because she was talented? There was this reason, but more because the ninja families monopolized the spread of ninjutsu.

The Water Prison Technique made him see an opportunity. Perhaps he could use this opportunity to teach more ninjutsu to civilian ninjas.

The Third Hokage was already 68 years old this year, not a young man. He knew the principle of haste makes waste, and did not immediately put his ideas into practice. Instead, he prepared to stabilize the situation, first promote the Water Prison Technique at the Jonin level, see the reactions from all parties, and then gradually promote it downwards.

The battle between Ino and Sasuke had ended three days ago. For Ino, this matter was over, and she should eat and play as usual, but for Sasuke, the nightmare had just begun.

His eyes hurt, as if they were burning.

At first, he thought that his Sharingan was about to awaken, and his heart was surging, but then he found that something was not quite right.

His Sharingan had actually already awakened.

He had this bloodline limit in his body, and he had also completed all the steps before awakening through strong emotional stimulation. Now he only needed to gather chakra in his eyes to officially complete the awakening.

But it was this extremely simple step of chakra gathering that stuck Sasuke.

A ninja's chakra was composed of physical energy and spiritual energy, and neither could be missing. Rock Lee couldn't use ninjutsu, but he had chakra, and naturally Sasuke also had it.

When he mixed physical energy and spiritual energy to create chakra and gathered the chakra towards his eyes, he felt as if a red-hot iron rod was stirring repeatedly in his brain.

It was fine if he didn't send chakra to his eyes.

But he was an Uchiha, if he didn't have the Sharingan, wouldn't he be useless?

Sasuke trained like crazy every day, enduring the pain in his brain to gather chakra several times, trying to awaken his eyes, but the more he trained, the more it hurt. It was clearly the last and easiest step before awakening, but he was still forcibly held back.
