After a night's rest, Chishima Chiba returned to her former self.
Days should be passed slowly, people should live slowly, and many things cannot be rushed.
Chishima Chiba should now focus on improving his strength. As Uzumaki Mito said, it is too early to do anything else.
Knock knock knock.
Chiba Chiba knocked on the door, "Tsunade, wake up!"
Inside the room: ...
Unable to help but frown, Chishima Chiba knocked again, "Tsunade, get up!"
Tsunade had opened her eyes at this moment, and although her eyes were confused, a hint of unhappiness flashed across her face.
In a daze, Tsunade couldn't tell what made her unhappy, but subconsciously she was very reluctant to talk to Chishima Chiba.
Chishima Chiba missed something...
What is it?
Tsunade ignored Chiba Chiba who was knocking on the door, sat on the edge of the bed, dangling her little feet, tapping her lips with her fingertips, thinking with a distressed look on her face.
A clear look gradually occupied her mind, and Tsunade suddenly woke up.
signal!
Chishima Chiba forgot the codeword!
"Damn Chiba, big liar!" Tsunade muttered, turning a deaf ear to the knock on the door, "We clearly agreed yesterday..."
Sitting on the edge of the bed feeling aggrieved, Tsunade felt that her good mood for the day was gone the moment she got up.
"Tsunade, you lazy bum, get up!" Chishima Chiba still didn't react and thought Tsunade was sleeping in.
Tsunade crossed her arms angrily and yelled, "I'm not here! It's so annoying!"
Chidao Chiba outside the door was stunned, and the agreement that had been forgotten suddenly popped up in his mind.
Pop.
Chishima Chiba couldn't help but slap his forehead. What has he been thinking about all day long?
"Ahem." Clearing his throat, "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight..."
As she spoke, Chishima Chiba couldn't help but blush. It was so damn embarrassing to say this in broad daylight.
"Yes, the moonlight is beautiful tonight."
Tsunade's response was heard from the room. Just when Chishima Chiba wiped the sweat off his forehead and thought the matter was over, Tsunade did not open the door and continued to pester him.
"The code has been confirmed, but you can go now. I can get up on time without you."
Finished!
Chishima Chiba was startled and quickly asked, "Tsunade, aren't you going to draw your eyebrows anymore?"
"No!"
"I just came up with a new eyebrow shape today..."
"I can't say!"
At this moment, Tsunade was sitting on the edge of the bed angrily and tearing the pillow, completely treating it as Chishima Chiba.
"Okay, I'm leaving now..."
Just when she was getting angry, she suddenly heard Chishima Chiba's voice outside the door saying that they were leaving, and Tsunade could no longer sit still.
I'm still angry, how can you leave?
Dengdengdeng.
Tsunade ran all the way to the door on her bare feet, opened it angrily, and prepared to chase after Chishima Chiba and give him a few good beatings.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, Chishima Chiba's handsome face was all over Tsunade's face. When their eyes met, Tsunade avoided his gaze, but still punched Chishima Chiba in the abdomen from the bottom of her heart.
He is not very strong, at most he is just pretending, but Chishima Chiba is also very good at pretending.
"Ouch."
With a cry of pain that was heavily influenced by performance, Chishima Chiba stumbled into Tsunade's boudoir, startling Tsunade so much that her eyes flickered slightly.
He punched forward, and Chishima Chiba stumbled in the opposite direction?
"Chishima Chiba!!!"
Tsunade became anxious, turned around and rushed towards Chishima Chiba, and her little fists rained down on Chishima Chiba like raindrops.
…
An hour later, Tsunade's eyebrows were drawn very delicately, but Chishima Chiba's aura was a little sluggish.
He was severely beaten up by Tsunade.
The main reason was that the mistake made this time was too big, and even with Chishima Chiba's words, he couldn't get away with it.
Although she got beaten up, Tsunade's mood finally turned from cloudy to sunny, so it wasn't in vain.
Uzumaki Mito also noticed the two of them, but she didn't care. How could there be two people in the world who didn't have conflicts?
As long as they could make up quickly after the conflict, it would be fine. Who knows, it might even enhance their relationship.
After eating and drinking, Chishima Chiba took Tsunade's bowl and chopsticks and ran to the sink to wash the dishes and chopsticks.
Tsunade was naturally very pleased with Chishima and Chiba's goodwill, and her mood improved a little.
Moreover, when the two of them said goodbye to Uzumaki Minato and went out for training, Chishima Chiba even took Tsunade's soft hand in a deserted place, shaking it very comfortably.
Tsunade also enjoyed this moment, and the unpleasantness in the early morning had long been forgotten.
They came to the training ground together, and from a distance they saw Hatake Sakumo already sweating profusely.
"Sakumo, so early?"
"Um."
Hatake Sakumo was unusually cold today, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Chishima Chiba is very good at observing people's words and expressions, and immediately realized that something was wrong with Hatake Sakumo.
"Sakumo, what happened?"
"..." Hatake Sakumo said nothing, but swung his sword more fiercely.
"Is it because of... the war?" Chidao Chiba asked tentatively.
At the same time, Hatake Sakumo paused his sword swinging hand, then nodded, "I'm not used to being alone at home, I want to go with them."
Upon hearing this, Chidao Chiba was silent for a moment.
In the First World War, in addition to the heavy losses of the Senju clan, some small ninja clans were completely wiped out, or only two or three kittens were left.
Among them, the Hatake clan is one of them. It is precisely because of this that even though Hatake Sakumo is the only one left in the Hatake family, the Hatake surname is still called a clan.
It's a bit too tragic for just one person to form a clan...
"But you can't go now, otherwise you will waste the blood of many ancestors." Chishima Chiba stepped forward and patted Hatake Sakumo on the shoulder, "and it's easy for you to have problems if you practice like this. Not only will you not be able to help them, but you will also ruin yourself."
"Chiba, Sakumo, what are you talking about?" Tsunade was confused, "War, where is the war?"
Chishima Chiba and Hatake Sakumo fell silent, looked at each other secretly, then Hatake Sakumo turned and walked away, leaving only Chishima Chiba.
It would be better for Chishima Chiba to explain it to Tsunade personally.
Taking a deep breath, Chishima Chiba pulled up Tsunade's sleeve and pulled her closer to him.
"Because of Grandpa Hashirama's death, some people can no longer hold back..."
Chishima Chiba explained in a low voice for Tsunade, and Tsunade's expression gradually became cold, but there were ripples in the depths of her eyes.
For the young Tsunade, war was still too far away and too cruel.
"So Tsunade, we have to work hard..."
"Well, you must work hard!" Tsunade nodded vigorously, "You must learn the skills well and kill the enemy on the battlefield!"
"Killing the enemy is secondary." Chishima Chiba shook his head and said, "What we should do most now is to accumulate strength for the future and use it to protect, not to kill the enemy."
"Is it the Will of Fire that Grandpa Hashirama proposed?"
"Yes, but not entirely." Chishima Chiba nodded and shook his head, "Grandpa Hashirama is great, but narrow-minded. He is too idealistic and ignores some mistakes that everyone makes."
"Simply sacrificing and devoting oneself to others, upholding friendship and inheritance, is a beautiful product of ideals. It can only be regarded as the highest ideal, not as a criterion.
When it becomes a principle and is implanted in people's minds, then under the leadership of those with ulterior motives, it will degenerate and become a means to coerce others and make them lose their minds."
"I don't understand..." Tsunade shook her head quickly, and Hatake Sakumo came over without knowing when.
"I don't understand either." Hatake Sakumo also agreed.
"What I mean is that we can pursue this will, but we cannot be carried away by it.
Moreover, sacrifice is never free. They can have a fearless spirit of sacrifice, but we, as descendants, must compensate them. Rather than hastily summarizing it with an exciting sentence and then leaving it alone, and then calling them stupid behind their backs. "
Speaking of this, Chishima Chiba sighed in his heart. The future Sarutobi Hiruzen secretly changed the spirit of dedication in the Will of Fire into selfless dedication.
The "Will of Fire" that only talks about free contribution but not substantial return is simply a hooligan!
In addition, the Will of Fire inherited from Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju has been tampered with and replaced in many places. Although it is small, it is very fatal. The "Will of Fire" has completely become a tool to control people's hearts, rather than will and pursuit.
What Chishima Chiba has to do now is to fill the loopholes in the true will of fire while Tobirama Senju is still alive.
Only if you have the right to interpret the Will of Fire yourself, you will not allow those with ulterior motives to take advantage of loopholes and ruin a good hand in the future.
"Still don't understand?"
Looking at the still confused Hatake Sakumo and Tsunade, Chishima Chiba rolled up his sleeves and said, "Come, I'll break it down and explain it to you in detail."
Chishima Chiba is also good at brainwashing, and he is quite strong.
Most importantly, Chishima Chiba has the right mindset!
