And while they were taking action, a paper clone with half chakra was lurking nearby, just in case.

So, he saw everything Xiaonan and the others did.

Including Xiaonan deliberately falling into danger...

"Are you going to keep doing this?" he suddenly asked calmly.

Yahiko and the other two were stunned, not understanding what he meant for a moment.

Hinata Muye glanced at Xiaonan, lifted his legs off her legs, and sat up straight.

"I mean…"

He hesitated for a moment, glanced at Xiaonan's gentle and quiet face, and then looked away.

"What are you going to do if I'm not with you anymore?"

His soft words were like a bolt of lightning that cut through the sky.

Xiaonan's face suddenly turned pale, and her two little hands were tightly entangled together, but after taking a deliberate deep breath, she slowly let go and her expression returned to calm.

Yahiko saw all the changes in Konan's expression, sighed in his heart, took a step forward, and said to Hinata Muye seriously: "Teacher, we want to find some like-minded partners and work with them to change this country so that it will no longer cry."

Wu Ye neither nodded nor shook his head.

Jiraiya appeared under the eaves at some point, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, wondering what he was thinking.

During these three years, he personally selected many ninjutsu that were suitable for Nagato and Yahiko to learn.

Only Xiaonan developed the paper secret technique completely on his own.

Jiraiya also wanted to know what Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, wanted to do and what kind of changes it would bring to the ninja world.

"Our organization does not fight against the ninja village, nor does it compete with the big countries. We only do things that are good for this country and the civilians..."

When Yahiko talked about his ideals, his whole body seemed to be shining: "One day, people will understand us, believe in us, and we will move towards peace together."

"What about you?" Wu Ye asked again.

Nagato just looked at Yahiko's profile and said softly, "I will always follow Yahiko."

Xiaonan remained silent.

Hinata Muye ignored her and looked at Yahiko and smiled: "Have you ever thought about the name of the organization?"

Yahiko was startled, his face slightly reddened, "There are only three of us, the names are too embarrassing."

Xiaonan suddenly looked up and said calmly: "Teacher, can you help us choose a name for the organization?"

Upon hearing this, Yahiko and Nagato immediately looked towards Wuye with anticipation.

Hinata Wuye was stunned for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth, as if he had witnessed history.

"Akatsuki, Akatsuki."

His voice was very soft, but it was like a ray of fire, lighting up in the endless darkness.

"Dawn, the first ray of light that breaks through the darkness."

Hinata Muye looked at the three of them.

The voice is soft.

"If there is no light in this country, then you..."

“Just be the only light.”

Chapter 172 Tomorrow, can you accompany me?

"If there is no light in this country, you will be the only light."

Hinata Muye's words easily ignited the blood and passion in Yahiko's heart, and even Nagato looked up instantly.

Even Xiaonan, who has been hiding her loss, is illuminated by the light of such idealism.

Jiraiya straightened up and stared at Hinata Muye's back. His expression changed from his usual nonchalant look to become extremely serious.

What on earth is this child thinking?

"But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is not so good."

At this time, contrary to his expectations, Hinata Muye did not encourage Yahiko and the others anymore, but instead began to suppress them.

"I'm going to ask you two very realistic questions, please think about them."

"First, where does your organization's operating funds come from? Second, how do you handle the relationship with the Rain Village?"

"You never charge for saving people, so you have no income and no economic foundation. You can't always catch fish with your subordinates, right?"

"You don't want to clash with the Shinobi Village, but as your reputation among the people grows, you will definitely be noticed by the Rain Shinobi Village. In contrast, one is inactive while the other is selfless. You are simply smearing the Rain Shinobi Village."

"There are also views from other great powers and villages. Konoha, Rock Village and Sand Village will not be happy to see the rise of an increasingly better Rain Country. This is not in the interests of the great powers."

"..."

As Hinata Muye continued speaking, Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan looked slightly pale.

The harsh reality shattered their ideals in an instant.

Jiraiya's expression became more serious.

If Wuye had only made such idealistic remarks, he would at most regard it as the passion and justice in the heart of a young genius ninja.

But Hinata Muye combined the reality and took into account the complex situation in all aspects. This is not something an ordinary boy can think of.

In the words of the old man, this is called having the mindset of a Hokage...Oh, no.

Jiraiya thought about how Hinata Muya encouraged Yahiko and the other two to change the appearance of the Rain Country, and confirmed that that was not the way of thinking of the Hokage, but the way of thinking of the entire ninja world.

This child has a long-term vision, yet is down-to-earth!

'Old man, let me help you examine this child, and I will give you the answer you want...'

Jiraiya's eyes were deep.

'But if he really has the chance, what he will do may be far beyond your imagination...'

He believed in his vision.

"Then teacher, what should we do?" Yahiko asked impatiently.

Although Hinata Muye knew that Akatsuki would eventually grow stronger, as their teacher, he still hoped to help them avoid some detours.

"First of all, when you save people in the future, you can tell those civilians that you have accepted the mission and are providing them with protection by charging them a fee."

Yahiko hesitated to speak.

Hinata Wuye ignored him and continued, "Secondly, do not confront the Rain Village before you are strong enough, and do not try to reach a consensus with them and win them over with benefits."

"Benefits?" Yahiko exclaimed.

Wu Ye nodded and said, "You do what they don't want to do, and you take on missions they don't want to take. But after the Rain Village notices you, remember to give them 20% to 30% of the mission rewards, or even more, as long as the organization can continue to develop."

Yahiko blushed: "How can we bribe the ninja village? We have done something beneficial to this country, why don't they agree with us and understand us?"

Hinata Muya held his forehead with his hand.

A pure idealist...

Zilai didn't say anything, wanting to hear Wuye's opinion.

Deep down, he agreed with Yahiko.

But based on his understanding of the ninja world, Yahiko is likely to fail.

People are too complicated. We cannot achieve harmony with each other simply by understanding each other.

Although, Jiraiya really longed for that.

"I won't explain this to you, because we have different philosophies," Hinata Muye looked at Yahiko and smiled, "I am just giving you suggestions. If you don't agree, just do what you want. No matter what the result is, it is your own choice."

Yahiko's face was full of confusion.

From the heart, an idealist like him simply cannot accept the practice of "self-sufficient depravity and collusion" like Hinata Wuye.

But after three years of getting along, he developed an extremely strong trust in Wu Ye, because Wu Ye always achieved his goals.

'Should I stick to my own way or listen to my teacher?'

Yahiko's expression kept changing.

Nagato bowed his head silently.

With Yahiko around, he wouldn't think about these things and would just follow Yahiko.

Xiaonan's eyes had been fixed on Wuye's face. Unexpectedly, he asked, "Teacher, you will be returning to Konoha soon, right? Will you handle village affairs in the same way in the future? If you encounter some conflicts of interest..."

Her tone was calm, like she didn't care at all that he left.

All eyes returned to Hinata Wuye's face.

He smiled softly: "As long as I can achieve my goal, I am willing to use any means."

Jiraiya frowned.

"Teacher is a genius ninja of Konoha. For Konoha, the current chaotic Rain Country is the best state, right?"

Xiaonan then asked: "Then why should the teacher help us change this country?"

"Because I, like you, want to bring peace."

Hinata Muye whispered: "Not only peace in Konoha and the Land of Fire, but peace in the entire world."

He really missed the days in his previous life, when he could live peacefully even if he lay down, because someone was carrying the burden for him...

But in this life, the person carrying the burden became himself.

Jiraiya's frown suddenly relaxed.

Although he still had doubts in his heart, he was still willing to see how far this disciple could go.

Sometimes, he would feel that he and this disciple who had been together for three years were equal, not like a master and apprentice, but more like a friend.

He never taught Wuye Ninjutsu, but only corrected some wrong ideas on Ninjutsu combination.

And more often, they will exchange inspirations...

Compared to Minato, Jiraiya treats Hinata Muya more as a companion.

"teacher…"

After a long while, Yahiko finally raised his head, his eyes becoming firm again: "I will do what I want, even if it means suffering, even if it means sacrificing my life, I will fight for my ideal!"

This is the pure idealist.

Hinata Wuye sighed in his heart, stood up, and patted Yahiko on the shoulder: "I only have one request."

"Teacher, please speak." Yahiko said solemnly.

He knew that Wu Ye would not force him to do anything he didn't want to do. This young teacher was unexpectedly broad-minded. He was willing to let them choose their own future path and respected them from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, he was unwilling to refuse the teacher's rare request.

"Whenever..."

Hinata Muye said solemnly: "Please put the safety of Konan and Nagato first."

"Yes."

Yahiko bowed deeply.

Wu Ye looked at him with mixed feelings.

I don't know what the fate of Yahiko and the other two will be with my involvement, and where Akatsuki will go.

"Teacher, it looks like it will be nice weather tomorrow."

The rain stopped without me noticing, but the sky was still gloomy.

Xiaonan reached out to catch the water drops falling from the edge of the eaves and said softly, "Tomorrow, can you accompany me for a day?"

Everyone else subconsciously held their breath.

A breeze blew through the cabin, and the paper cranes fluttered.

The sound of wind chimes rang out quietly, trying to soothe their troubled minds.
