Ninja: I'm really an auxiliary ninja

Chapter 295 Problem Child Uchiha Itachi.

"master!"

Itachi Uchiha opened the door to the principal's office, walked up to Hatake Akira and saluted respectfully.

"Itachi, you're here."

Akira Hatake greeted Uchiha Itachi, "How have you been training recently?"

"Following the training methods taught to me by my master, I have never slackened off."

There was a serious look on Uchiha Itachi's little face, and he looked like a little adult that made people laugh.

"Come, let me test you."

Hatake Akira chuckled and handed his handwritten test paper to Uchiha Itachi.

The content of the exam is very simple, mostly covering some common sense and principles of Ninjutsu practice, with some torture questions about human nature mixed in.

Reaching out to take the test paper handed over by Akira Hatake, Uchiha Itachi took a quick glance and felt confident.

Taking the pen, Uchiha Itachi sat down at his desk and wrote quickly. In less than half an hour, Uchiha Itachi completed his answer.

"Master, please take a look."

Respectfully, he handed the test paper back to Akira Hatake. Uchiha Itachi took a step back and waited for Akira Hatake's review.

"Did you answer the question seriously?"

Hatake Akira, who was drinking tea, teased, but to his surprise, Uchiha Itachi took it seriously.

"Master, I answered every question very seriously!"

"You are just too calm-tempered. You don't have the liveliness and detachment you should have at your age."

Hatake Akira made a brief comment and ignored Uchiha Itachi, whose face was slightly red.

Picking up the cinnabar pen on the table, Hatake Akira began to mark the test papers.

It has to be said that Uchiha Itachi's theory is very solid. Although the questions asked by Akira Hatake are not very advanced, the many knowledge points involved have reached a level that only the chuunin level can access.

He nodded repeatedly, Uchiha Itachi did not disappoint Hatake Akira in this regard, answering all questions correctly.

But when he saw the test question about human nature, Hatake Akira couldn't help but frown.

This kid Uchiha Itachi is still too mature in his thinking.

Although this cannot be said to be bad, the more mature you are, the more mature you are in looking at problems, and the more mature you are, the more thoroughly you can see things.

This makes Uchiha Itachi recognize the reality prematurely and lose his innocence prematurely.

"Itachi, tell me, how do you view war?"

Putting down the test paper in his hand, Hatake Akira asked a common question. He wanted to see what Uchiha Itachi would have a different interpretation.

"Wars originate from the ugliness deep in people's hearts, and any party that initiates war cannot be called just."

"No matter how many reasons we find, war is the use of violence to trample on the lives and dignity of others. We should do our best to eliminate war."

Just two answers revealed Uchiha Itachi's current state of mind.

Hatake Akira heard and saw clearly that Uchiha Itachi was not a bad boy in nature, but he was too idealistic when thinking about problems.

Everyone knows what he said, but why are so many people keen on starting wars?

In the final analysis, it is the will of the superior that is at work.

But the problem is, everyone wants to be the one in power, and the one in power also wants to dominate.

Therefore, the war in the ninja world will never end and will never disappear.

Even if there are no large-scale war conflicts, war will still exist in the world in another way.

As long as there are people, war will not stop. This is the truth.

"How to eliminate war?" Akira Hatake asked again.

"I... haven't thought about it yet." Uchiha Itachi answered calmly. He really didn't think about it yet.

Shaking his head, Hatake Akira looked at Uchiha Itachi again, and reached out to pat his thin shoulder.

"Itachi, I remember I said before that this kind of issue is not something you should consider now."

"Master, I... know I was wrong."

"Alas..." Hatake Akira sighed, "It's just the nature of your mind, what can you do wrong?"

What Hatake Akira said is correct, Uchiha Itachi's character has been like this since he was a child, otherwise there would not have been the massacre of Uchiha in the original time and space.

When your mind becomes heavy and you consider too many things, you will ignore the simplest and most effective solutions to problems.

"Itachi, if you want to solve the problem, you must see the essence of the problem."

"Then what is the nature of war?"

"It's robbery! It's human nature!"

Hatake Akira raised his head and looked out the window, "Your previous thoughts are like clouds in the sky that cannot eat the fireworks of the world. You can see them but you can't feel them."

"That's right, you haven't experienced a war, so it's understandable that many of your ideas are naive."

"But master, I have realized the nature of war!"

Uchiha Itachi rarely refuted Hatake Akira, which made the latter slightly stunned.

The relationship between Itachi Uchiha and Akira Hatake is very similar to that between Jiraiya and his three disciples.

Subtle differences in ideas lead to different opinions on a certain matter, and ultimately lead to the master and disciple turning against each other.

Perhaps, this is the reason why in the world of Naruto, many masters and apprentices turn against each other, leading to tragedies of killing masters or killing apprentices.

Akira Hatake's original intention of accepting Uchiha Itachi as his disciple was to correct Uchiha Itachi's three views while he was still young and immature in his thinking, and to shape him into the ideal figure in his heart.

But now it seems...

Hatake Akira still has many oversights.

"Itachi, you have indeed seen the nature of war, but what can you do?"

"Master, there will always be a way!" Uchiha Itachi shook his head, "I just haven't thought about it yet."

"That's not a reason."

Hatake Akira glared at Uchiha Itachi, "This is not something you haven't thought about, but you thought too early!"

"Am I thinking too soon?"

"What else?" Akira Hatake stretched out his hand and flicked Uchiha Itachi's forehead, "He's a kid, he doesn't even have hair, and he's not as tall as anyone, so he's just thinking wildly here."

"Master, this is not random thinking!"

Uchiha Itachi held his forehead in pain, but still disagreed with Hatake Akira's words.

"You kid!" Hatake glared at the stubborn Uchiha Itachi again, "Forget it, it's better to block it than to block it. I will completely correct you today!"

"Let me ask you, it is people who cause wars. If you want to eliminate wars, do you need to eliminate the people who create wars?"

"..."

Uchiha Itachi was speechless and thought for a long time, not knowing how to answer.

But Hatake Akira did not continue, but looked straight at Uchiha Itachi, quietly waiting for his next words.

After a while, Uchiha Itachi already had an idea in his mind.

"You can only kill the chief culprit and sacrifice others for the sake of peace."

Coming!

Hatake Akira suddenly sat up straight, and Uchiha Itachi's thoughts still had some thoughts of the Uchiha Itachi who had destroyed his family in the original time and space.

"What if the culprits are your relatives and friends?"

"I……"

Uchiha Itachi was suddenly speechless and unable to speak a complete sentence.

However, Hatake Akira still didn't intend to let Uchiha Itachi go.

He continued to torture Uchiha Itachi's soul, "What if the culprit you mentioned is the village?"

"What if the chief culprit you say is a country?"

"What are you going to do?"

Facing Hatake Akira's aggressiveness, Uchiha Itachi's expression was very tangled, and his heart became like a mess.

What will he do?

At Uchiha Itachi's current age, it is normal for him to be unable to make a choice when faced with such a difficult decision.

And Akira Hatake wanted to take advantage of this moment to completely define Uchiha Itachi's thoughts.

The younger you are, the easier it is for your thoughts and psychology to be shaped.

Even the precocious Uchiha Itachi cannot escape this theorem.

"Can't you understand?"

Glancing at Hatake Akira, Uchiha Itachi lowered his head, his handsome features wrinkled together, "Yes, master, I'm very confused now, I can't understand..."

Suddenly, Uchiha Itachi raised his head and looked at Hatake Akira expectantly, "Master, please help me figure it out!"

"You just think too much."

Hatake smiled, thinking that Uchiha Itachi had finally fallen into the trap.

Then he didn't hide it, and directly told Itachi Uchiha his true thoughts deep in his heart.

"War has two sides, just like if you kill a chicken to satisfy your hunger, it also has two sides."

"The fundamental reason why there are two sides is that the starting point is different."

"You killed a chicken to feed yourself. From your point of view, there is absolutely no problem, because you have to survive."

"But then again, if you side with the owner of this chicken, you would be committing a crime by taking it without asking."

"So, we have to find a compromise solution."

"For example, in the Third Ninja War, so many people died at my hands. Do you think I am righteous or evil?"

"Master, everything you have done for the village is right in my opinion." Uchiha Itachi replied seriously.

Akira Hatake rubbed Uchiha Itachi's hair happily, "This is the compromise solution I'm going to tell you today."

"We can't take care of everyone who is our enemy and our hero, so we just need to draw a range and take good care of those within the range."

"At a small scale, this scope is a family, but at a larger scale, this scope is the entire Konoha and the entire Fire Country."

"Then, war, which is essentially evil, has a reason to do it."

"And what you have to do now is to work hard to improve your strength so that you have enough power to protect the people you love before the next war breaks out."

"But master, you haven't told me how to end the war yet!"

Uchiha Itachi did listen to what Akira Hatake said, but Akira Hatake's words still couldn't help him solve the doubts in his heart.

"Who started the war?"

"It's...the five major countries." Uchiha Itachi suddenly realized something and stuttered a bit when he spoke.

"Then tell me, if you want to end the war, what is the most direct way?"

"Solve...solve the five major countries..."

Uchiha Itachi opened his small mouth and expressed his feelings in despair, "But... after the five major countries are gone, there will be three major countries, seven major nations, and even ten major nations..."

"fool!"

Hatake Akira flicked Uchiha Itachi's forehead with his finger, "Who told you to wipe out all the five major countries?"

“Wouldn’t we unify it all?”

"All... all unified?" Uchiha Itachi felt something was wrong when he heard it, but the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

"Yes, Master!" Uchiha Itachi smiled, "If the entire ninja world is unified, then... everyone will be one of our own, and war will disappear!"

"Do you understand now?"

"I understand!" Uchiha Itachi nodded heavily, and then bowed deeply to Hatake Akira, "Thank you, master, for clearing up the confusion. I understand everything."

"Just think about it and don't think too much in the future!"

Hatake Akira gave Uchiha Itachi another slap on the forehead, "Why don't you go to training soon? You will be busy in the future."

"Then I'm going to train."

Uchiha Itachi ran to the door in a hurry, but before leaving, he added, "Master, when I am strong enough, I will complete this great goal with you!"
