Chapter 118: Betraying the Whitebeard Pirate Group? Naruto's house cleaning!
Hoshigaki Kisame killed a Konohagakure Jonin.
Regardless of the purpose of this Jonin's opposition to Whitebeard, no matter which family this Konohagakure Jonin is from, he is also a rare talent in Konohagakure.
The number of Jonin in Konohagakure is not large, especially just a few years after the end of the Third Ninja War.
Witnessing a Konohagakure Jonin being killed, as an Anbu Jonin, Kakashi has to seek justice for the deceased... this was his idea ten months ago.
But the one who killed the Konohagakure Jonin was a member of the Whitebeard Pirate Group, which is another matter... this is an idea that came up in Kakashi's mind now.
Maybe, probably, should, maybe...
Is it this Konohagakure Jonin's fault?
Ignoring the facts, doesn't the killed Konohagakure Jonin have any fault?
An even more important reason is that .... Even if Whitebeard wants to kill in Konohagakure Village, Hatake Kakashi, can't stop it.
Unless his strength is immediately increased by a hundred or even a thousand times.
Otherwise, Kakashi feels that his end is no different from this person.
"You look very upset, Kakashi?" When Kakashi fell silent, Hoshigaki Kisame's voice sounded faintly: "What? The famous Kakashi of the Sharingan, do you want to avenge the ninja in the village?"
Kisame carried the big sword Samehada, and some of the spikes on Samehada were covered with fresh blood.
"It was this ninja from your Konohagakure Village who provoked the Whitebeard Pirate Group first!"
Although he had just joined the Whitebeard Pirate Group for more than half a month.
But Kisame has completely entered his role.
And fully recognized the Whitebeard Pirate Group.
"This guy... admitted in person that he pulled down all the pirate flags of the Whitebeard Pirate Group in this town. And he even burned them to ashes and swept them into the pit."
Kisame stared straight at Kakashi: "A Konohagakure ninja made such an act against the pirate flag of the Whitebeard Pirate Group, and even told all this in front of me."
"Kakashi, do you want to stand up for such a person?" Kisame grinned, showing his sharp teeth: "I really admire your bravery, don't force me to kill you! Kakashi!"
Kakashi: "...."
Who would have thought that Hoshigaki Kisame, who had just joined the Whitebeard Pirate Group for less than a month, would have such a high recognition of the pirate group.
If you don't know, you would think he was Whitebeard's first son.
Kakashi didn't expect Shimura Kizuki to be so reckless!
He knows Shimura Kizuki.
After all, there are only so many Jonin in Konohagakure Village, and they usually see each other when they are in mission.
Do the ninjas of the Shimura clan all like to make trouble?
Kakashi doesn't quite understand this.
Is this an innate talent of the Shimura clan?
Shimura Danzo, the clan leader, has made trouble many times.
Now Shimura Kizuki, who is a high-ranking member of the clan, is following suit.
What else can Kakashi say?
He put himself in the shoes and thought about it. If he were Hoshigaki Kisame, seeing someone so insult the pirate flag of the Whitebeard Pirate Group...
He might not be able to suppress the killing intent in his heart, right?
"Ughh..."
Kakashi slowly exhaled, the hint of "dissatisfaction" in his eyes had dissipated, and he put on his dead fish eyes again: "That doesn't mean we can let the body of a Konohagakure Jonin lie here, we should at least find a place to bury him."
Kakashi himself didn't know why he said this?
His behavior is no different from a Konohagakure rebel
But for some reason, after hearing Hoshigaki Kisame's explanation, he always felt that the Whitebeard Pirates were in the right in this matter, and that Shimura Kizuki deserved to die.
This strange idea popped up.
Kakashi was startled.
Soon.....
Shisui, Uzumaki Fuushi, Naruto, Karin, and Haku also arrived.
A group of people just gathered around a corpse.
"What is this?" Uchiha Shisui was taken aback: "Shimura Kizuki?"
Shisui also recognized the identity of the deceased.
"What happened to him?" Seeing the corpse full of terrifying holes, Shisui reflexively looked at Hoshigaki Kisame, because only Hoshigaki Kisame's ninja sword could cause such injuries.
Kakashi had to explain the situation.
In fact, he was just repeating what Hoshigaki Kisame had said.
It's just that his tone was a bit better than Kisame's.
"What?!!" Before Shisui could say anything, Naruto's eyes widened, and his little face was full of anger: "This guy burned our pirate flags and threw them into pit?"
This is absolutely unacceptable to Naruto.
The flag of the Whitebeard Pirates is a symbol of honor in Naruto's eyes, the symbol on the pirate flag represents his family, but now someone has burned the flag of the pirates.
This is no different from touching Naruto's bottom line.
Second only to hurting Naruto's "family"
"Damn it! He's a Konohagakure ninja!" Naruto gritted his teeth: "Why would a Konohagakure ninja do this? We pirates didn't do anything wrong in this town. Pops even said that our Whitebeard Pirates don't hurt civilians, and we won't rob ordinary people in the town."
"We just robbed the casino here!" Naruto was very puzzled: "Aren't all the people in the casino a bunch of bad guys? We, the Whitebeard Pirates, cleaned up the bad guys, isn't that a good thing?"
In Naruto's impression, the ninjas of Konohagakure are representatives of justice.
Of course, except for an organization called "Root".
Naruto doesn't think that the Whitebeard Pirates did anything wrong.
The bad guys here have not been cleaned up by ninjas for many years.
Then Pops cleaned up the bad guys and filled the town with pirate flags to deter those bad guys.
Is there anything wrong with this?
The bad guys are really shocked!
But why.... in the eyes of this ninja from Konohagakure Village, this is a wrong behavior? Why did he pull out the pirate flag? And even insult the pirate flag?
Naruto didn't understand.
Naruto's thoughts couldn't be hidden in his heart, Whitebeard saw it at a glance, he laughed: "Gurarararara! Stupid son! Not everyone is as kind as you! The bad guys in someone else's eyes might be loyal dogs raised by the ninjas. If you kill the 'dog,' how can the dog's owner not be upset?"
In the final analysis, ninjas do not represent justice, ninjas are just a group of killing tools.
Konohagakure Village, which looks more glorious and righteous.
In fact, it is just a Village that produce killing tools.
"So, in other words...." Naruto couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Those bad guys..... are they raised by the ninjas?"
Naruto looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi was silent for a moment.
Still replied: "This Konohagakure Jonin is called Shimura Kizuki, I vaguely remember that the person in charge of that casino is called Shimura Tokurou, that casino should be the property of the Shimura clan. 'Loyal dog' and the like are too ugly, it should be said that they are all a family."
Kakashi put his hands in his pockets and reluctantly told the truth:
"These people who set up casinos and raise gangs are still active and have not been cleared away. Because behind them are all 'ninja clans', they are 'gloves' raised by ninja clans."
"Many ninja clans will use these gloves to make money in the Land of Fire, and the money they make is all money that can't be seen. Then this money will be transported to Konohagakure and eventually become the family funds of that ninja clan."
"These things are also common." Kakashi continued: "They are against the Whitebeard Pirate Group, not because they are loyal to Konohagakure, nor because they are loyal to the Land of Fire."
"They are only loyal to their own ninja clan, and they don't want the interests of their ninja clan to be damaged. Then, they will be hostile to everything the Whitebeard Pirate Group does, that's all."
Kakashi sighed slightly: "You shouldn't know these things at your age....."
For a child who aspires to "Hokage" and thinks that everything in Konohagakure Village is good...
The impact of these words is still too great.
Compared to Whitebeard's simple and easy-to-understand words, Kakashi's words made Naruto a little bit overwhelmed.
But Naruto can still roughly hear what Kakashi means.
....Not all Konohagakure ninjas are good people, there are many bad people among Konohagakure ninjas. These bad guys raise another group of bad guys, and then... these two waves of bad guys are doing evil in the Land of Fire, colluding with each other, and killing people.
....Whether the Whitebeard Pirate Group is doing good or bad, in the eyes of those two waves of bad guys, they are doing bad things because it affects the bad guys' ability to make money.
....Konohagakure Village is not as good as he imagined, there are many bad people in Konohagakure Village as ninjas.
Naruto barely heard these three points
His little face was a little surprised.
But in a blink of an eye, the slight surprise on Naruto's face disappeared, replaced by a more determined will: "Then I must become the Hokage of Konohagakure Village!"
Naruto was adamant: "I don't know why Grandpa Hokage would tolerate the bad guys in the village to stay in the village. But if one day, I can become the Hokage of Konohagakure Village, I will drive all the bad guys away!"
"No! I want to lock them all up in Konohagakure's prison! Ninja shouldn't be like this!" Naruto declared.
Naruto's firm and clear statement left Kakashi momentarily stunned.
"Naruto, this is not something that can be easily achieved," Kakashi kindly reminded him. "Whether it's the First Hokage who built Konohagakure, or the Second, Third, or the deceased Fourth Hokage, none of them could achieve what you're saying."
"Just because they couldn't do it, doesn't mean I can't! If I want to do it, I'll do it. If I want to say it, I'll say it. This is my Ninja Way!"
Naruto looked up at Kakashi, his eyes full of determination. "Uncle Kakashi, I will prove to you that I can definitely do it!"
Kakashi didn't expect that one day he would be stunned by the words of a six-year-old kid.
He also had to admit that the determination in Naruto's eyes surprised him.
He could see that Naruto really wanted to change the status quo.
Naruto wasn't like him, Hatake Kakashi...
Choosing to turn a blind eye to everything.
In a daze, Kakashi seemed to see his father's face in front of him, the scene of his father's suicide emerged, and the rumors and slanders about his father in the village echoed in his ears.
If Naruto were in his place back then.
Would he have sought justice?
"Naruto, you're braver than me." Kakashi smiled behind his mask. "You will become a great Hokage, better than any previous Hokage, I firmly believe that."
This was Kakashi's highest praise for a person.
This praise was only for Uzumaki Naruto.
"Uncle Kakashi..." But Naruto keenly noticed that the smile under Kakashi's mask didn't have much joy.
Instead, there was a bit of sadness and painful reminiscence.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Kakashi asked.
"Uncle Kakashi, you must be a person with a sad story, right?" Naruto said seriously. "No matter what happened to you, but when I become the Hokage of Konohagakure one day, I... will definitely help you solve this problem!!"
Smack...
Kakashi gently flicked Naruto's forehead.
"Stupid Naruto... don't make such promises in the future." Kakashi smiled and said, "Everything I've experienced can't be solved by becoming the Hokage of Konohagakure."
Naruto scratched his head.
He was quite puzzled about this.
"Whitebeard-sama! Whitebeard-sama!" Just then, a very untimely voice rang out. Everyone frowned and looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw that the casino owner, Shimura Tokurou, had tears all over his face.
These were tears of fear that he had been scared out of.
The family had sent a Jonin, and he thought he could do anything.
But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, the Jonin would be dead.
And, the most critical point is...
It seemed like he had chosen the wrong side!
He had previously chosen to stand on the side of the Shimura clan, not the Whitebeard Pirates.
Then the truth came out.
Shimura Tokurou, holding a money box in his hands, was crying and sniffling, completely disregarding the image of the Shimura clan's ninja.
He knelt down to Whitebeard, placed the money box on the ground, and then shakily opened it.
"Whitebeard-sama, this... this is the seventy percent share of the casino, not a penny less." His voice was trembling as he spoke.
The body of the clan's Jonin was right in front of him, how could he not be afraid?
How could he stabilize his thoughts?
Sensing the eerie silence in the atmosphere, Shimura Tokurou's heart jumped, he hurriedly said: "In this money box, all are special large-denomination banknotes, each denomination is 1000 Ryo, a total of 17 million Ryo."
"If... if Whitebeard-sama think this is not enough. Then... then I will take the initiative once, and put the remaining thirty percent, all in here."
Whitebeard didn't bother with Shimura Tokurou.
"Gurararararara!" He smiled on his face, turned his head, and asked Naruto: "Future idiot Hokage, how are you going to deal with this kind of 'fence-sitter'?"
The three words "fence-sitter" made Shimura Tokurou's breath almost stagnate, and his heart almost stopped.
However, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Because in Shimura Tokurou's view, Whitebeard did not personally deal with him, but let this kid make the decision.
Isn't this indirectly giving him a chance?
A kid who doesn't look very old, his heart is definitely not as dark as an adult, nor as ruthless as an adult.
When Shimura Tokurou looked at Naruto, his eyes showed a bit of expectation and pleading.
As long as he gives this kid "face"
There should be no problem, right?
"Pops, if we let this kind of person go, then there will be a lot of people imitating him." Naruto was trying hard to imitate Whitebeard's way of thinking about problems. He was imagining if it was Pops who made the decision, what would Pops do to deal with this person?
After Naruto thought about it for a while.
He spoke out his thoughts: "Pops, we shouldn't let such a big bad guy go! He can betray the Whitebeard Pirates once, then he can betray the second time, the third time."
"No! Wait, wait!" Shimura Tokurou was sweating profusely, and when he realized that something was wrong, he hurriedly shouted anxiously: "Misunderstanding! I... I didn't betray the Whitebeard Pirates!"
"You're lying! Someone who truly hasn't betrayed the Whitebeard Pirates should be like 'Yoichi' at the shipyard." Naruto frowns slightly, "Even though he's not Pops's son, he still hasn't betrayed Pops in the face of someone stronger than him."
"Pops spared your life once, and you promised to be loyal to the Whitebeard Pirates. ut today, you've let Pops down, with... with..." Naruto suddenly ran out of words.
"Anyway... you! You betrayed Pops!"
"You betrayed the Whitebeard Pirate Group!"
Naruto took a deep breath, and his childish face showed a murderous intent: "I will never allow anyone to betray Pops, nor will I allow anyone to betray the Whitebeard Pirate Group."
"If such a person appears."
"I will kill him with my own hands!"
Shimura Tokurou never thought that he would feel a breath that made his body and mind tremble in fear from a kid.
He hurriedly wanted to say something, but under Naruto's gaze, he couldn't say a word.
Cold sweat soaked his back clothes.
His whole body was shivering.
Shimura Tokurou looked at other people with pleading eyes.
He looked at Uzumaki Fuushi for mercy, but found that this red-haired woman and the little red-haired girl next to her were looking at him with eyes as if they were looking at a dead person.
He looked at a long-haired "Haku", but this kid's eyes were not inferior to Uzumaki Naruto. His eyes met with Haku , his eyes were like being pricked by a needle, and a chill climbed up his spine.
Shimura Tokurou had to look at the two Konohagakure ninjas present. One was Hatake Kakashi, and the other was Uchiha Shisui.
He found that Kakashi was staring with a dead fish eye.
His expression did not fluctuate at all.
Shisui wanted to say something, but after sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Shisui also chose to be silent.
Thump...
Shimura Tokurou's heart fell to the bottom.
He knew he was done.
He just reacted in a daze... The Whitebeard Pirate Group is a pirate group, and it is no different to betray the other party in front of a pirate group.
Betraying a pirate group, the outcome will only be one words.
...Death!
Naruto, who had made up his mind, had already started to make seals with both hands.
Kakashi saw at a glance what Ninjutsu Naruto wanted to use.
Kakashi didn't say much after all.
"Wind Release, Wind Cutting Jutsu!"
Naruto, who had finished sealing, decisively opened his mouth and spit out, this time's "Wind Cutting Jutsu" was very successful, a visible wind blade, flew forward in the blink of an eye.
Puff... the wind blade cut through flesh and bones.
Blood rushed two meters high.
His head fell to the ground.
