Naruto: Accidentally Unlocking a Fantasy Era

"Sakuya-senpai committed suicide."

Minato Namikaze said in a deep voice.

"Well, I see."

Jin nodded; he already knew of Hatake Sakumo's determination to die during that day's battle.

A man who ascended to the Dharmakaya form through sheer willpower died amidst the gossip and rumors of others.

It has to be said to be an irony.

Minato Namikaze continued in a deep voice, "Gold, is Sakumo-senpai's death related to you?"

The atmosphere around them became heavy.

Minato Namikaze still can't forget Gin's abnormal behavior a few days ago.

Now that abnormality is gone.

"It has nothing to do with me."

Jin shook his head. If he had killed White Fang, he wouldn't be here now.

"Phew." Minato Namikaze let out a soft breath, a bright smile spreading across his face.

"I knew it, Kim, you wouldn't do something like that."

After all, Jin's behavior that day was too strange, which forced Minato Namikaze to make connections.

Jin shook his head.

"Watergate, you're too trusting."

Minato Namikaze's smile remained unchanged.

"Because it's you, I will definitely believe you."

Jin sighed helplessly.

How naive!

Water gate.

"only."

Minato Namikaze looked somewhat sad.

"The rumors the village spread about Senior White Fang were really too much. I never thought that even someone as powerful as Senior White Fang couldn't withstand them."

Sometimes, the people who hurt you the most are those who know nothing about you.

Jin smiled but remained silent.

Some things have meanings that are more complex than we imagine.

Minato Namikaze only saw the surface, but could not imagine the complexities inside.

But perhaps that's why he is Minato Namikaze.

"The village is planning a funeral for Senior White Fang. Jin, let's go pay our respects together."

"After all, Senior White Fang has always been the one who protects the village."

Jin shook his head.

"I'll pass, I have some conflicts with White Fang."

"But the person is gone."

“Minato.” Jin looked at Minato Namikaze seriously: “Some things can’t be erased by death.”

Minato Namikaze stared blankly at Gin, unable to understand the relationship between Gin and White Fang.

Sometimes it feels like these two are very close, but other times it feels like White Fang and Gold have a lot of conflicts.

Minato didn't know how to persuade Kim.

"No one is wrong when they die."

He doesn't believe that the dead should bear the burden of past mistakes.

"But what if people could be resurrected?"

Jin suddenly spoke up and asked a question.

Minato Namikaze looked at Kin's smiling, white teeth.

"Is this Lady Tsunade's research?"

Minato Namikaze seemed to be deep in thought. Tsunade had been researching ninjutsu to revive people, and he had heard that the progress was promising.

He looked at Jin thoughtfully.

really.

Gold and White Tooth still have a good relationship.

Chapter 282 The Truth Behind White Fang's Death

White Tooth's funeral was held as scheduled.

He simply concealed the truth from the villagers, and the people of Konoha still believe that their Lord White Fang is alive.

But as time goes by, no one mentions White Teeth anymore, and then everything will be forgotten.

Just like how no one mentions the achievements of the First Hokage now, only the Third Hokage is praised.

Aside from the ninjas of Konoha, news of White Fang's death has not yet leaked out.

No one knows how many spies are among the residents of Konoha.

It's difficult to join the Konoha ninja system, but it's quite easy to become a Konoha resident.

As for the funeral.

Every so often, Konoha holds a funeral to send off the ninjas who died in missions.

The funeral will only feel a little early, and no one will notice anything unusual.

Even in this peaceful era, many ninjas still die on missions.

The ninjas stood silently before White Fang's grave.

Standing in front was Kakashi Hatake, the only son of White Fang.

However, many ninjas dared not look at that figure.

Those who attacked White Fang and drove him to suicide were actually ninjas. Ordinary civilians didn't care much about the ninjas' missions; they only cared about whether it would affect their own lives.

The ninjas looked down at the lawn, feelings of guilt and regret rising in their chests.

No one is innocent in an avalanche.

Perhaps those who come here to pay their respects are seeking psychological comfort.

"Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire will continue to grow. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and make new leaves sprout."

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood beside Kakashi and muttered softly.

Kakashi watched the leaves drifting in the distance, swaying in the wind before finally falling to the ground.

So is sacrifice always the right thing to do?

So, ninjas who abandon their mission to save their comrades are trash?

It should be swept into the trash.

Kakashi's thoughts were gradually changing.

"Condolences."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Kakashi and sighed, looking at the sky covered by dark clouds, just like Konoha shrouded in gloom.

White Fang died so easily.

but.

Konoha is in trouble.

"Perhaps it really is my fault."

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt guilty. If he hadn't hesitated and had stopped the spread of the rumors, Sakumo Hatake might not have died.

He had clearly decided to hand over the position of the next Hokage to him.

why.

Is he really that desperate?

The funeral ended.

Everyone left the cemetery.

Kakashi was left staring at the tombstone in front of him as rain continued to fall from the sky.

He was completely unaware of it.

He only looked up at the man who had appeared beside him when he felt the rain stop.

Uchiha Kin.

A man who was on par with his father.

Seeing Uchiha Kin gazing at the tombstone, Kakashi asked the question that had been bothering him.

"Is the existence of ninjas solely for missions? Is it wrong to abandon a mission in order to protect comrades?"

"Sacrifice is what should be encouraged, right?"

He was aware of the ninjas' resentment towards his father, but the students at the ninja academy were unaware of this.

But as a Chunin, he heard it.

"So, White Fang committed suicide out of shame, right?"

He wouldn't even call his father by name.
