Chapter 202 Tavern Speech, Rise of Will!
The full moon hung high in the night sky. In a tavern in Konoha, there were ninjas from big families and ordinary ninjas, and their companions came in groups.
Perhaps in order to obtain useful information, or to vent the depression in his heart, after all, no one knows the war better than the ninja.
At each wine table, there were two companions of the three ninjas drinking. Suddenly, a figure sat in front of the wine table in the corner. Asuma Sarutobi didn't even raise his head, and directly refused in a hoarse voice.
"Someone is sitting here."
"Really, but there are no other seats here tonight, so Shisui and I can only come here."
A familiar voice sounded, and Sarutobi Asuma raised his head and saw Kakashi Hatake wearing a black mask, and Uchiha Shisui with an apologetic face beside him.
"Senior Asuma, we were ordered to come here, please excuse us."
Facing Shisui's apology, Sarutobi Asuma only had Kakashi in his eyes. At this time, he looked at Kakashi's calm expression and felt only shame in his heart.
"Kakashi, you are not allowed to drink!"
Asuma's hoarse words at the end also revealed the concern between classmates. Just like that, Hatake Kakashi sat opposite him, and Shisui smelled the strong smell of alcohol and cigarettes, which made him feel uncomfortable. Speechless.
Asuma seems to be the same age as brother Kakashi, only eight years old!
Of course he will be nine in two months.
"It's a mess."
Asuma couldn't help but frown while he was drinking. The usually quiet tavern was obviously a bit chaotic tonight, which made him a little dissatisfied.
However, Hatake Kakashi, who was sitting opposite, calmly looked at the program on the tavern stage, shook his head and said:
"You can watch the show on the stage carefully."
However, after hearing Kakashi's words, Sarutobi Asuma raised his head, looked at the argument between the two ninjas on the stage with blushing necks, and smiled disdainfully.
"Listen to these idiots whitewashing some people? Say we didn't start the war? Or listen to them bragging about the contributions a group of old guys have made to Konoha?"
Under Sarutobi Asuma's mocking eyes, Shisui also raised his head and noticed the argument on the tavern stage.
An ordinary Konoha chunin with scars on his cheeks, his face was flushed and he was waving his arms excitedly as he spoke.
"Have you forgotten the contribution of the Third Hokage to the village? During the twenty years of peace, we all enjoyed peace, and our generation only grew up..."
On the other side, a middle-aged ninja with a red nose and a lame leg slapped the table angrily and yelled:
"Umino Irubi, you know nothing! In the ninja war for more than twenty years, the second generation Hokage led us to win the first half. Then when the third generation came to power, what was he busy doing every day?
He's forming his own roots! ANBU! Cultivate your own power. The external war was won by the Senju, Uchiha, and Hinata who led us civilian ninjas and paid countless blood! "
Umino Irubi, the future uncle of Iruka, had anger in his eyes. He was obviously a fan of the third generation of crazy fans. At this time, he pointed at the opponent angrily and said:
"Senior! I only know that I live under the rule of the Third Hokage. What you said is the same old thing..."
"Shut up! You little idiot, the third generation you are talking about is an arrogant maniac! A coward who has the ambition to start a war but has no ability to end it!"
At this time, the crippled ninja with a red nose argued fiercely with angry tears in his eyes:
"Who caused this war? The Sunagakure collapse plan angered the Sunagakure, and now they are launching a war on the front line against us, the Fire Country!
Kumogakure's collapse plan has angered the entire ninja world. Now the four major ninja villages have declared war on us Konoha. Why is the Sandaime the strongest Hokage you call the strongest hiding in the village? Why doesn't he go to the front line to repel the enemy..."
At this time, on the second floor, an exquisite box could just see the dispute on the stage, and Uchiha Ye couldn't help but show curiosity.
Uchiha Mikoto on the side understood what he knew and said softly before he could ask.
"This lame chuunin is called Mimura, and his son is an excellent special jounin. As a result, he was killed by the Third Raikage during Kumogakure's collapse plan, leaving only his head..."
After hearing this explanation, Uchiha Ye suddenly realized that no wonder the anger in this man's eyes was mixed with a trace of hatred.
At this time, for the families of these sacrificial ninjas, they can accept the sacrifice of ninjas, but they cannot accept a shadow who provokes a war but hides in the village.
This makes them think that the sacrifices of their sons and parents are tools of careerists.
Not just this tavern, with the outbreak of the war, the prestige of the Third Hokage plummeted, and people continued to make remarks about the Third Hokage's contribution to the village in public places in an attempt to restore the prestige.
It was obviously the high-level people in the Hokage's whitewashing policy. Today, Irubi encountered a difficult opponent who had lost his son.
Just when he was blushing and having a rough neck, he suddenly saw the tall figure on the second floor looking down at him, and he suddenly showed an angry look.
Uchiha! Konoha's biggest cancer!
"Uchiha Yojonin, you are a famous genius in Konoha, and you cut off the arm of the Third Raikage during Kumogakure's collapse plan. Why didn't you kill the Third Raikage for the sake of the village at that time!
If this war is the Sandaime-sama's mistake, then you must bear the greatest responsibility! "
Irubi, a red-faced and thick-necked chuunin who went to the hospital indiscriminately due to an acute illness, obviously caught a target to divert his remarks.
He knew Uchiha too well. These Uchiha with their nostrils turned upward would only use brute force. At worst, he would be imprisoned for a few more days!
However, in the tavern, countless people saw that the figure Irubi was questioning loudly turned out to be the Uchiha Night Queen, and countless ninjas were shocked.
At this time, Uchiha Ye on the high platform on the second floor showed a contemptuous smile, and was actually provoked by the ants. Is it ignorance or self-righteousness?
Mikoto on the side showed a look of disgust and said coldly:
"Umino Irubi was promoted to chuunin two months ago. His strength is actually not up to par. He often goes to public places and creates conflicts. He hates Uchiha very much and has transferred and created conflicts to the police department many times..."
Uchiha Mikoto did not hide her words at all, and her cold voice echoed in the tavern, which made many ninjas frown.
Information is the first choice of ninjas, so you can know whether this information is true or false as long as you inquire about it a little.
When Umino Irubi heard the other party's information about him, not only was he not angry, but he also showed anger.
"Why do you Uchiha have to enjoy the most prosperous area? Why do we commoners have to bleed for your clan! You obviously have the strength to kill the Raikage..."
Umino Irubi's demeanor made many ninjas in the tavern frown. During this period, a group of hot-headed genin who whitewashed the third generation suddenly appeared.
At first they didn't feel anything, but more and more, and with such obvious intentions, they were not stupid, and they couldn't help but feel more and more disgusted with the Third Hokage's behavior.
However, in the face of the clamor of the ants, a white light suddenly flashed, and a short sword appeared at the neck. At this time, countless Konoha ninjas in the tavern showed solemn expressions. The outbreak of such a conflict in the village is a big deal.
"Kill! If you dare, do it!"
However, when the short knife was held at his neck, Irubi became even more excited and yelled, who dared to do it in front of so many people?
"Kakashi!"
He originally ignored the ants, but after seeing Kakashi appear with a short sword in hand, Uchiha exuded a powerful aura without being angry.
Kakashi Hatake, who was holding a short sword below, showed a pair of cold eyes, and kept this person in his mind. With his heart full of disgust, he said coldly:
"You idiots who only create rumors should be taken away at the root!"
Seeing this kind of person, Kakashi thought of his father, who was forced to do so by these people.
However, Irubi did not give in. Instead, he touched his neck and pointed at Uchiha in front of everyone.
"It was you, the superior clans, who were greedy for life and fearful of death in order to preserve your strength, so you let the Raikage go, and that's why we have the current war..."
After seeing such clown remarks becoming more and more outrageous, a burst of crisp applause suddenly interrupted the other party's conversation and made countless people look at him.
I saw Uchiha Ye standing on the second floor slowly coming down the stairs, clapped his hands with a mocking smile on his face.
"What a wonderful clown show."
After strolling in the courtyard, Uchiha Ye slowly came to the stage. His black eyes looked around everyone. There were especially many ninjas in the tavern tonight, and then a dull voice sounded.
"I don't know when there was a saying in the village, saying that the big clan squeezed the living space of ordinary ninjas, and even enjoyed the fruits of victory from the bloodshed and sacrifice of civilian ninjas. I think everyone has heard of it..."
People often say that voice is the second face of human beings.
And Uchiha Ye's voice is completely like God's blessing. With some skill training, it is extremely magnetic and uniquely recognizable.
Although Uchiha Mikoto on the second floor had not heard it for the first time, she still narrowed her eyes and showed an expression of enjoyment, as if she was listening to a wonderful art.
At this time, Uchiha Ye slowly turned around, slowly stretched out his palm and pointed at the Irubi who was washing the floor, and teased clearly:
"For example, this Irubi chuunin has a certain hostile look in his eyes. Even many of you here have this thought in their minds. So what I want to say is..."
When he said this, Uchiha Ye's voice paused, immediately attracting everyone's attention to look at him, and he looked around everyone with a mocking smile.
"The most basic information about ninjas, so I think if everyone carefully inquires about the ninjas of our various clans, they will find one thing. Certain families such as Senju, Uchiha, and Aburame are unbalanced.
The missions their children performed after becoming genin were extremely dangerous, and even how many people died during the war. I can tell you responsibly that all of us Uchiha genin will go to the battlefield to train! "
The voice of the last sentence was even more sonorous and powerful, and Uchiha Ye's expression became more solemn.
"The Senju Clan! The largest clan in the ninja world that once had over a hundred jounin, suddenly after the war, the number of jonin was reduced to less than double digits!"
"And this Iruka chuunin, as well as countless other ninjas who heard rumors from nowhere, slandered the ninjas of the same village, but no ninja is willing to take any action. He only needs to find out a little information, and then go up a few steps. ten years!"
"Who built Konoha for decades! It was us Uchiha and Senju who joined forces with the major families to build it! These enviable and rich resources belong to our major families themselves!"
At this time, the voice became louder and louder, and at the same time, it became more and more excited. Uchiha Ye pointed angrily at Irubi beside him.
"The resources of Konoha were captured by all of us, but what happened before? Our major families gave them away. Now some white-eyed wolves with evil intentions are questioning us! They are questioning our companions!"
"You! You! And you!" Pointing at the ninjas in the tavern, Uchiha shouted in a deep voice:
"Tell me, during the war, your parents! Your children! And you! Who didn't go to the battlefield? Then ask the family ninjas with the clan emblem embroidered on them, how many people in their clan didn't go to the battlefield? !
The family emblem is not a privilege as these people say, but a symbol of our glory in defending our homeland with our blood! Just like Konoha's forehead protector..."
As Uchiha Ye's extremely contagious voice echoed, countless ninjas in the tavern were moved, especially some family ninjas who looked downcast.
The family has given them many privileges, and the first lesson they learned from childhood is to protect the village.
"Now someone is shamelessly questioning why we didn't leave the Third Raikage behind! Then I would like to ask you! How did you graduate from the ninja school!"
Uchiha Ye pointed his finger at the Chuunin Irubi on the side, but he didn't even look at this person, but looked at everyone.
"Hundreds of us are fighting with all our strength! It's to hold back the Raikage and the two thousand Kumo ninjas! Now someone is questioning us! Then tell me! How to lead the ninjas who have consumed more than half of their 700 chakra to turn defeat into victory!
Defeated a three-strong man who defeated our Third Hokage, Root Leader, and Time and Space Ninjutsu! "
Under the angry questioning, although the hand was pointing at Irubi, everyone could see the anger in Uchiha Ye's eyes.
He was asking who had ulterior motives! Who is twisting the facts again!
Under constant questioning, Ilubi's face turned pale, and his eyes were even more panicked. Especially when facing the looks of countless ninjas in the tavern, he couldn't help but feel scared.
"I...you..."
Irubi's mind was blank at this time. When he met the police department, he would just scold the other person angrily, and the other person would either feel aggrieved and walk away, and he would wave his fists in a show of glory as if he was winning a battle.
Either he was taken away by an angry Uchiha, but he had never encountered such a situation before, causing his mind to go blank and he didn't know how to refute.
"Umino Irubi! Then please tell me! Have you ever been to the battlefield since graduation!"
The deafening sound echoed in the tavern. Umino Irubi's face turned pale, without any blood, and his eyes were filled with confusion and panic.
For a time, countless ninjas in the tavern showed doubts and angry looks.
