Chapter 235 Cracks

Regarding the curse seal, he was advised not to use it more than once, but Mizuki was the first one to advise him directly on life, death and revenge. Bringing up this topic, Sasuke Uchiha asked with a feeling of difficulty.

"To put it lightly, Mr. Mizuki, what can you understand? Who can understand the pain of the whole family being killed?"

Looking at Sasuke who spoke painful words in a low voice, Mizuki didn't express too much.

"Understand? Pain? No one understands?"

Well, the idea of ​​this typical excess of self-awareness is a bit off-putting.

"What a wayward idea, Sasuke."

Mizuki got a glass of water and handed it over.

"Drink some water and calm down."

Looking at the serious boy, Mizuki continued: "You are very talented, Sasuke, but don't overestimate yourself. Hatake Kakashi is already a Jnin at your age, and Uchiha Itachi has been on it more than once. Having been on the battlefield, how much do you think your talent is better than theirs?"

"I only have blood and a heart of revenge. Hatred will bring me strength!"

"Who told you this? Uchiha Itachi?"

Uchiha Sasuke kept silent, acquiescing to Mizuki's words.

"In the final analysis, even the method of becoming stronger is within the consideration of others. Why do you beat Uchiha Itachi? Few people in this world can kill him. If you want revenge, it is not a few ninjutsu or hatred at all. In the final analysis, you are too weak, and you don’t even have the courage to become a strong person. Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on you. You don’t even know how strong a ninja can be. , and what conclusions can be drawn?"

"Then what can I do?" Sasuke asked, feeling extremely helpless after Mizuki ruthlessly pierced the hypocritical and hard skin, "Can I really just give up as Kakashi-sensei said?"

"This is something you have to consider yourself, and others can't help you."

Seeing Sasuke's unwilling expression, Mizuki continued: "You keep talking about your hatred, but you want others to understand your pain? Everyone is different, and expecting others to understand you is a weak thought. , What can you do? Your partner Uzumaki Naruto has done better than you, and has gone farther than you on the road of being understood and recognized by others."

Hearing Mizuki's words, Sasuke thought for a while, then raised his head and said seriously: "I am asking too much. Indeed, reality is not that extravagant. What I have to do now is the power of revenge."

"Really!" After talking for a long time, I still returned to the original point. "Then you should work hard. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Kakashi-sensei or me. Go back first and have a good rest."

"Understood." Uchiha Sasuke nodded, and came full of hope, but got nothing, which was really disappointing.

After Sasuke left, the room returned to calm. Mizuki drank tea slowly, looking at the blurred moonlight outside the window.

"Mizuki, from your tone, you seem bored?"

Accompanied by the voice of inquiry, a figure suddenly sat on the chair opposite Mizuki.

"Why didn't you teach me just now? I've been listening for a long time."

In such a situation, it's no wonder that Uchiha Sasuke's actions were not noticed.

"As for being bored, I feel that it's useless to say it, it's just perfunctory."

"Tired of Sasuke? As a teacher, your attitude is very strange, even if you are not leading the Ninja class, this kind of prejudice should not be right?"

This is what makes Kakashi strange. Even if he has a preference, Mizuki usually doesn't show it so obviously, especially as a teacher, he is obviously unqualified.

"Yeah, I'm so tired of this little guy who doesn't listen to advice." Mizuki sighed, "At the same time, I'm also dissatisfied with myself."

"Dissatisfied with yourself? What did you do?" Kakashi asked suspiciously.

"Hey, Kakashi, how do you evaluate Sasuke in your heart?"

"A very talented ninja, but his mind is dazzled by hatred."

Mizuki nodded in agreement: "I think so too, but, Kakashi, is Sasuke wrong?"

Kakashi was taken aback, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "I think there is something wrong, but he shouldn't be blamed..."

Mizuki waved his hand, stopping Kakashi's long speech: "All of this was arranged by Uchiha Itachi, or some unknown black hand. So, we must try our best to help Sasuke and let him walk on the right path, right?"

"That's right." Kakashi confirmed, "These are all certain, what exactly do you want to say?"

Mizuki withdrew his gaze from staring at Mingyue outside the window, looked at Kakashi and said seriously: "Think about it, the possibility of Sasuke being able to distinguish between good and bad is very slim, and even what we think is good for Sasuke is not necessarily true. It’s a good thing, right or wrong, who can say clearly?”

"However, such a thing as hatred is an endless dark road!"

Years of experience made Kakashi's heart unshakable by Mizuki's simple words.

However, Mizuki didn't intend to discuss ninja with Kakashi.

"It's wrong to follow the path arranged by others. It's right to listen to us. When did we have such arrogant thoughts about Sasuke?"

"Eh?" Mizuki's question made Kakashi suffocate, speechless for a while.

After pondering for a long time, Hatake Kakashi said to Mizuki with a solemn expression: "I can't refute your words, but people must have their own moral values ​​and standpoints. We are good people who yearn for peace and are the inheritance of Konoha's spirit. This cannot be denied!"

Kakashi strongly disagrees with Mizuki's idea of ​​deviating from Konoha's spirit, although it is fair.

"So Sasuke thinks so too?"

"I'm trying to make him think so!"

"That means we haven't succeeded yet!" Mizuki said to Kakashi with an unprecedented seriousness: "So, in the eyes of Sasuke now, what is the difference between us and others?"

Without waiting for Kakashi to answer, Mizuki continued to question: "Arranging other people's lives without scruple, what is the difference between what we do and Itachi Uchiha?"

Mizuki's words immediately shocked Kakashi.

"I haven't thought about such a thing. Don't you think I'm doing bad things with good intentions?"

Saying that, Kakashi laughed at himself.

"Talking too much with you makes me doubt life."

"I don't know if you do bad things with good intentions, but there is no place for you to doubt your life. With naive thoughts, you can't change Sasuke."

"What do you want to do? Let Sasuke fend for himself?"

"How come? As a teacher, I still have to keep my responsibilities..."
