Chapter 150 White Fang Defends Konoha with His Death [ Words Updated, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket] At Hatake's house. The seven-year-old genius ninja Kakashi Hatake seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit. He knelt at the door with dull eyes. All the ninjas who came in to visit showed expressions of pity, and countless people even felt disbelief even when they came here in person. Is this the end of the legendary ninja? "Kakashi, I'm sorry about Sakumo. Accept my condolences." Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze came here with heavy faces. When they saw Kakashi, who lost his father at the age of seven, both of them had melancholy in their eyes. "Jiraiya-sama!" "Jiraiya jonin!" After Jiraiya arrived, all the jonin nodded respectfully. Even the jonin were divided into different ranks. However, the final funeral of this legendary ninja was even more tragic, because there were only a few dozen scattered ninjas who came here to pay tribute to Hatake Sakumo.
Jiraiya became even more angry after seeing this scene. A hero shouldn't be treated like this. "Jiraiya-sensei!" Minato Namikaze who was standing by seemed to have noticed something and couldn't help but look at his teacher, while Jiraiya took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Minato, go and comfort Kakashi. I, Jiraiya, will preside over the funeral of Sakumo Jonin on behalf of the Third Hokage. We cannot let our hero die in such a sad way." "Yes!" Outside Hatake's house, many ninjas were squatting on the roofs, big trees, street lights and other places, watching from afar. Many of them still had some reservations and chose to watch and see him off from outside after hesitation. After all, it was rumored in the village before that Hatake Sakumo had caused the mission to fail due to his own reasons, resulting in heavy losses to the village. Public opinion is a double-edged sword. After Hatake Sakumo suddenly got into trouble, the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo secretly began to order people to stop it, but they found that the situation seemed to have gotten out of control. In other words, public opinion has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. This was the first time they tried the weapon of rumor, and its power was so great that it not only hurt the enemy, but also themselves. Hokage's office. "Huruzen, although the public opinion has been stopped, it has already penetrated into the hearts of all the ninjas in Konoha. If this matter is not handled properly, it will cause chaos." "Yeah, which is more important, companions or missions? If everyone chooses companions over missions like Hatake Sakumo, then what's the point of having a ninja village? What's the point of having a Hokage!" Mitokado En and Utane Koharu looked solemn as they spoke about the impact of this incident. Sarutobi Hiruzen also had an ugly face, and after a long while he exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke, he said in a deep voice: "Danzo has gone too far this time!" This was the first time they used public opinion, and their starting point was only to undermine White Fang's reputation and make him completely disqualified from competing for the position of Hokage. Who would have thought that it had only been a few days? How could this person be so stubborn! He chose to commit suicide, causing Konoha to lose such a powerful fighting force in vain. "Jiraiya has taken my place at Sakumo's funeral, but the impact of this incident..." Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was hesitating, the door suddenly opened, and Danzo Shimura walked in with a gloomy face and said in a deep voice: "Huruzen, this may be unexpected, but we must not start this! If we allow Hatake Sakumo to behave like this, how will Konoha survive in the ninja world in the future? For a ninja village that doesn't take missions as its primary goal, will there still be countless people coming to the Fire Country's Konoha Village to issue missions?" Shimura Danzo's tough attitude also hits the point directly.
Mitomon En and Utane Koharu also looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and nodded: "Huruzen, none of us want to see what happened to Hatake Sakumo, but what Danzo said is right. Once this precedent is set, how can Konoha gain a foothold in the Land of Fire? How can it gain a foothold in the ninja world?" For a ninja, the primary criterion is to complete the mission. If everyone makes protecting their companions their first requirement, then why would the people issuing the missions come to you? In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who eventually became the Third Hokage, looked deeply at his old friends. He understood that this time even though he knew it was wrong, he had to go on. After all, the pressure from public opinion is too great. If it hadn’t been so serious, it could have been completely controlled within a small area. What a pity! The public opinion was too big, and Hatake Sakumo was a legendary ninja, so he had no other choice. "I understand!" Finally, for the sake of the village's stability, Sarutobi Hiruzen bowed his head and said in a deep voice: "Order the Anbu to inform Jiraiya that Hatake Sakumo violated the ninja standards and caused great losses to the village, and his name shall not be on the memorial tablet!" This decision almost denied the title of hero, Hatake Sakumo, and he died in shame. After Sarutobi Hiruzen gave this order, the Anbu outside the window nodded respectfully and disappeared, and Shimura Danzo in the room fell silent. Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu seemed to have noticed Sarutobi Hiruzen's heavy mood, and they couldn't help but sigh. "Huruzen, this time we can only blame him for abandoning the mission, and we are all for the stability of the village." "That's right, Hiruzen, think about the major families behind Hatake. If you let them do whatever they want, once Hatake comes to power, these powerful families will continue to grow and become the cancer of Konoha." "What have we been working so hard for all these years? Isn't it just to balance the major forces in the village, weaken the wealthy families, and allow more civilian ninjas to come to the fore, so that Konoha can be more stable..." With the comfort of Mito Kado En and Utatane Koharu, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen felt better, but he still sighed with pain at the loss of such a powerful fighting force. "It's a pity for Hatake Jonin. Such a ninja who could intimidate the enemy country is gone like this." …… At the funeral of the Hatake family. Countless people once rushed to come here, but now, under various public opinions, this hero who had made countless contributions to Konoha came to an end, and finally scattered, which is a perfect example of the fact that people left and the tea was cold. "what!" "Why can't Senior White Fang be placed on the memorial tablet? Senior White Fang has made so many contributions!" Inside the room, a jonin who had received great favor from Hatake Sakumo asked loudly and angrily. At the same time, seven or eight special jonin also had angry expressions on their faces. The current Namikaze Minato is not as famous as he will be in the future. Facing the dissatisfied eyes of the crowd, he can only say gloomily: "Everyone, this is the order of the Hokage. Hatake Jonin failed the mission due to personal reasons, which caused heavy losses to the village. I hope everyone can understand the Hokage." However, in the face of Minato Namikaze's explanation, the crowd would not give up, and they angrily bullied the yellow-haired man in front of them. "stop!" At this moment, Jiraiya's tall body let out a deep roar. Faced with Jiraiya's power, although the ninjas were unwilling, they could only let go of Minato Namikaze's clothes. "Jiraiya-sama!" "We are not convinced!" "That's right. Just because of a failed mission, are we not even qualified to go to the memorial?"
Facing everyone's dissatisfaction, Jiraiya looked around at everyone with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: "You are all ninjas, you should understand the significance of the mission. If the outside world spreads that Konoha values the lives of ninjas more than the mission, then Konoha's position as the number one ninja village in the ninja world will be shaken!" When Jiraiya spoke up for this righteous cause, everyone felt aggrieved and unwilling, but they couldn't say anything. Only Hatake Kakashi, who was kneeling at the gate, heard that his father was not even qualified to be on the memorial stone. He looked at him blankly, but muttered to himself, "Ninjas should abide by the rules and complete the mission as the standard, so that people will not say..." Kakashi, with a dull look in his eyes, thought of his father at this moment. If his father had chosen to complete the mission and abide by the rules, he would not have been talked about like this, and he would not have committed suicide. This made him fully understand the iron law of the ninja world. In the ninja world, rules are above everything! Just as Kakashi Hatake fell into darkness and seemed to have found the reason why his father, such a powerful ninja, would commit suicide, there was suddenly a commotion outside the door. "The police department is dispatched to arrest and interrogate all ninjas involved in slander and spreading rumors!" "Although Hatake's mission failed, why did the news spread so quickly? It was clearly the work of a spy. And the ninjas who followed Hatake on the mission, arrest them all! All of them had doubts. Since he was captured by the enemy ninja, why didn't he commit suicide? Since he blamed Hatake Jonin for saving him, he should have sacrificed himself for the Will of Fire. But he was cowardly and timid, and blamed Hatake Jonin after returning to the village..." Outside Hatake's house, a large group of ninjas were seen walking towards here. Such a scene shocked the ninjas who were watching secretly around. Under the reflection of the family emblems, there are families such as the Senju, Uchiha, Hyuga, and Aburame. Leading the way was Tsunade, who was leading a dozen ninjas from the Senju clan, and behind them was the large number of ninjas from the Uchiha clan. Under the shocked gazes of countless people, Uchiha Ye, who was following behind Tsunade, directly and coldly issued orders one after another. When everyone heard these orders, they knew that something big was going to happen. "night!" Uchiha Fugaku also came with him. After hearing such an order, his face changed. However, Uchiha Ye shouted coldly to the police department behind him: "I, Uchiha Ye, as the deputy director of the police department, now order you!" boom! At this moment, Uchiha Ye chose to take over as deputy director of the Police Department in front of everyone. After returning from the Rain Country two years ago, Uchiha Yashiro entered the Medical Department without a single eye, and the Deputy Minister of the Police Department became a hanging title. But this time it was different, he was clearly going to officially join the police department. However, Uchiha Fugaku was not angry about someone coming to share power. Instead, he said worriedly: "Ye, you are too impulsive." To put it nicely, Uchiha Fugaku's personality is steady; to put it bluntly, he is indecisive and hesitant in making a choice. However, after Uchiha Ye gave the order, the police department members behind him, including Uchiha Yashiro and other confidants, shouted directly: "Yes!" In an instant, more than a dozen members of the Uchiha Police Department used the technique of instant body movement to leave and choose to execute the order. Seeing this, Uchiha Fugaku opened his mouth to say something, but saw Uchiha Ye's silent expression and the indifferent look of Tsunade, who was in the lead. He seemed to have guessed something and couldn't help but be secretly shocked. Could this be Thousand Hands' counterattack? Thinking of this, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but secretly glance at his confidant, and instantly his confidant understood what he meant. "Follow the Deputy Minister's order!" In an instant, dozens of Uchiha ninjas behind him chose to execute the orders given by Uchiha Ye.
Such a big thing happened in just a few steps, and Jiraiya, who had just walked out of the house, couldn't help but change his expression. "Tsunade!" However, today Tsunade was dressed in black. After giving Jiraiya a cold glance, she led the representatives of the major families directly into the Hatake clan. At the same time, on both sides of the courtyard outside Hatake Sakumo's funeral, flags representing the family crests of various wealthy families were erected. The family emblems of the Senju, Uchiha, Hyuga, and Aburame families stood on both sides, fluttering in the wind. The funeral, which was extremely shabby a moment ago, instantly became a funeral attended by many wealthy families. Hatake Sakumo represents all of their major wealthy families. Since something has happened, others can hide, but they, the wealthy families, cannot hide. "Brother Kakashi, are you okay?" Also following along was little Shisui, and after paying respects to Hatake Sakumo, Shisui approached with a concerned look on his face. Kakashi is now at the most confused moment in his life. All his previous values were shattered by his father's death, and it is time to rebuild them. However, inside the room at this time, Jiraiya looked solemnly at Tsunade who had come with so many wealthy families, and could not help but lower his voice and said: "Tsunade, no matter what, this matter must be suppressed first." Jiraiya could naturally see that there was something wrong with Hatake Sakumo's death, but the biggest problem now was that he couldn't make any more trouble. Let's put this issue aside for now, and then when no one is talking about it anymore, we can talk about whether Hatake Sakumo's name can be engraved on the memorial tablet. However, this time, after Tsunade paid tribute to Hatake Sakumo, a sneer appeared on her face. "Jiraiya, are you an idiot?" Tsunade didn't give Jiraiya any face, which made Minato Namikaze very embarrassed. At the same time, the other ninjas in the room all lowered their heads and looked like they didn't hear anything. "Tsunade, the impact of this incident..." However, before Jiraiya could finish, Tsunade interrupted with a sneer, "Influence? Hatake Sakumo's suicide has already told the entire Konoha the fate of ninjas who don't follow the rules! He even defended the dignity of the Fire Country's number one ninja village with his own death. A ninja who abandons his mission, even if he is already a Hokage-level powerhouse, even if he is a legendary ninja, will have to pay the price for it!" Tsunade's cold voice echoed, revealing the real reason why Hatake Sakumo committed suicide. The mere exclusion is not all. What is more important is that the situation has gotten out of control as public opinion has intensified. This is no longer a simple mission failure. Instead, it was Konoha's legendary ninja White Fang who gave up the mission, which had the greatest impact on Konoha's credibility in the ninja world. Therefore, the biggest pressure for Hatake Sakumo is the harm his behavior has brought to the village. The real reason why Hatake Sakumo committed suicide was to defend Konoha's honor in the ninja world. At the door of the house, Kakashi Hatake was stunned when he heard these words, and his confused eyes seemed to begin to focus. "Kakashi, Sakumo-senpai is a true hero!" Uchiha Shisui on the side spoke even more firmly, which made Hatake Kakashi seem to understand something.
His father did not commit suicide because he could not bear the pressure of public opinion. His father was not that fragile. The real reason why his father committed suicide was to protect the village and defend the dignity of Konoha in the ninja world.
