Five years ago… after a mercenary group called the “Hannya” infiltrated the Land of Fire, missions to defeat them continued one after another, putting the lives of comrades at risk…!? Shikamaru, though a strategist with experience comparable to a military tactician, was most concerned about his dear friend. At that time, I heard reports that he had died, and this mission was completed safely, but it was from someone who only reported. However, in this war… the ninjas of the Land of Fire respected him. At the end of a dream, there are a multitude of beginners relying on the comrades in his team. His comrades turned down missions for his sake, but he has the qualities of a leader. Hmm, the squad leader “gratitude” is something the avengers would mention. It might not be comforting to receive the mission or not. Whether he burned with chakra to regain original power or whether he bit into the risks, it’s like planning against the opponent. If possible, as a collision type to recover…
The will of the fire of the Hidden Leaf is a double standard.
The teachings of the third generation are bad.
Don’t underestimate the will of the base.
Abandonment and withdrawal are different; the left side just indicates that abandonment was a mission that was not permitted.
I accomplished my mission, but being completely wiped out is not acceptable.
I put my companions first and suspended it, but I can’t afford to incur losses.
This is a mistake by the upper management for putting someone like this on the team as a liability…
>>5
They’re the kind of people who would criticize you after being helped…
>>7
That’s something that often happens in reality too…
>>5
Team formation does have a gambling aspect to it, but it’s true that the upper level needs to be solid.
There are outrageous acts like putting the biggest troublemaker in the village and the survivor of our clan together with an ordinary kunoichi in the same team.
Everyone survives and completes the mission… ○
Total annihilation…☓
One person survives to carry out the mission…△
Everyone survived, mission failed… ☓
Then it would make sense, right?
Aren’t they just changing their policy after simply bullying and killing the hero?
The Hinton Palm Reversal is a traditional Leaf Village ninja technique.
Isn’t it simply because the people of the woodlands are of low quality?
Well, considering the current passing criteria for the Chunin exam, there’s no way that Obito back then could have been promoted to Chunin…
It’s no good because you were able to carry out the mission, but you didn’t do it and helped instead.
>>13
But protecting my friends is far more important than completing the mission…
>>14
There are also villages and countries that are even more important than the squad…
In the end, it depends on the content of the mission, right?
Because of what happened on the left, I changed my mindset to the one on the right!
That’s fine, isn’t it…?
It seems that they also blamed the Land of Fire, but it looks like they have a good impression from the daimyo, the White Fang.
>>16
Since we have to ensure that the Fire Nation is also blamed, otherwise the villagers will lose their legitimacy, we decided on that narrative.
>>16
Maybe only the beautiful story of saving a comrade’s life has been passed down.
It’s a common thing…
>>16
Though they were probably angry about the failure itself, they likely thought that the White Fang was a great ninja nonetheless.
I’m telling you that a friend’s life is far more important than the mission.
It’s not okay that failing the mission means the same thing as everyone surviving or everyone perishing.
I hate to say it, but I’ve always thought that ninjas shouldn’t commit suicide over slander.
>>18
I think that in that village, the bullying and harassment was likely severe not only for the individual but also for their family.
What a loss it would be for a legendary ninja known across other countries to commit suicide due to bullying within the village—what an idiot.
I want to believe it was the strategy of another country.
Shikamaru was at his best around this time.
>>21
Is it really smart when it comes to Hidan’s place, or is it just too poor at picking up on things?
>>30
(The pattern on the ground… There is something hidden in it…!)
>>21
After this, I’ll be bothered by becoming a troublesome Chūnin, being forced to be a troublesome squad leader, getting involved in a troublesome marriage, dealing with the bothersome role of Hokage assistant, and eventually becoming the troublesome Hokage.
>>31
Looking back on it again, it’s really a worthless and overly complicated life.
What’s the worst is that now is the worst time.
I think anyone would want to crush a crappy village like this, not just Sasuke.
Even the Tsuchikage and the sand old women highly regard that white fang and see it as an object of hate.
To bully someone to the point of driving them to suicide, huh…
>>24
I want to believe that Kakashi, who holds the title of “White Fang,” has become the Sixth Hokage and has restored his honor.
The second generation protects secrets and friends, but it’s the second generation that’s at fault.
The third generation didn’t have impressive combat scenes, but…
The villagers really liked me, and I was able to build a reasonably good relationship with other countries as well.
I saw a response saying that a ninja who was probably in the closest position to Hokage chose personal interests over the village’s benefits in front of his comrades, and I thought that would be criticized…
>>27
But you know…
It was Danzo who continued with the latter, you know?
It’s about how significant this big loss is, isn’t it?
It must be a considerable loss.
What kind of mission would cause a ninja to fail to the point of obscuring the three ninjas?
>>32
Even if you’re an academy student, you won’t fail unless you join a team…
>>32
The mission can be anything.
For example, a comrade is injured! If we return right now and treat them, they would definitely be saved, but if we continue the mission as it is, they definitely won’t make it. It must have been a situation like that.
>>32
I wonder how strong he actually was; in the main story, Kakashi-sensei had a somewhat ambiguous level of strength.
If he’s such an amazing person, then Kabuto is Edo tensei.
>>44
If there’s no DNA, you can’t transfer to the contaminated land!
>>47
Since Sakumo is reading about people from the past, I think DNA sampling should be possible.
It depends on the weight of the mission.
Those who cannot endure are not ninjas, so it’s safe.
Shikamaru became Hokage because the sequel was untouched by the original author.
Well, it’s an indescribable feeling.
>>35
But when you think about it normally, there really isn’t anyone more suitable.
Rather than being suitable for the village chief, it’s someone who can somehow manage the village while dealing with those shitty bombs like Amadokawa Kieida Demon.
>>43
If you choose based on strength or rank, you’ll end up with something like Kabuto or Orochimaru.
The level of slander that one would die knowing that a good person leaves behind a single son.
The content of the loss, whether it was just financial or if there were also human casualties…
>>45
There is also the possibility that hundreds of people died due to the collapse of the front lines.
Why doesn’t the gene for Edoten remain?
Well, in the first place, failing the mission ≒ the possibility that the village’s secrets have leaked outside seems to pose a greater risk.
In the final stages, Shikamaru doesn’t seem that smart, but Danzo looks really intelligent, so I guess the depiction of the strategic commander that Kage is good at was based on the latter.
It must have been a truly terrible loss if even the comrades you helped are slandering you.
>>51
They must have been told a lot, and if they had died and achieved it, they would have been a hero.
>>51
Well, I guess the comrades who were saved might blame you for how things turned out because the white fangs helped you.
The Leaf Village folks don’t seem like they’ll change so easily.
If it’s in reverse chronological order, I can understand being critical, but if it’s improved, that’s a good thing, right?
A ninja who surpasses the three ninjas is nothing but a source of fear for other countries.
It’s ridiculous to drive ourselves to suicide, isn’t it?
Unlike Guy, Kakashi’s battle record in the story is too poor…
>>59
In a situation where Naruto and the others were not present, if Kakashi had faced Zabuza, he could have potentially been taken down by a water prison ambush, as he was in such a ruined state both physically and mentally in the beginning.
Sakumo committed suicide without leaving any traces of himself.
Leaving behind a cute scarecrow like that child to commit suicide is just too cruel.
>>61
People who are mentally ill are all self-centered.
Naruto’s teacher is always paired up with stronger opponents…
There are often cases where the compatibility is not good…
Although it’s said that the darkness of the village is being discussed, in this case, it’s not the darkness of the village, but simply that the human heart is just rotten.
>>63
The concept of meritocracy, for better or worse, is thoroughly depicted in the main story, including the treatment of Naruto.
If you can’t deliver results, you’ll be turned away.
It feels strange that a collector as skilled as Kabuto doesn’t have one.
I wish this village would perish…
Just blame it on Danzo already.
Because that’s better as an episode…
Maybe in the Hidden Leaf Village, even if I complete my mission, I’ll still be cornered anyway because my comrades I abandoned or their families will resort to slander for that reason.
It was sad to see Kakashi-sensei losing every time.
I thought Guy has that kind of character vibe.
>>71
In this manga, the difference in skill is so cruel that it cannot be overcome…
These guys are too evil just for Naruto and Sakumo.
At this point, even Kiba is so resolute that he has no hesitation about self-harm, almost reminiscent of being on the verge of suicide, so it’s understandable that he would be criticized for failing the mission out of concern for his subordinates’ lives…
It’s just below Shikamaru’s judgment during the Sasuke Retrieval Arc.
It seems that the loss from the ninja who committed suicide is greater than the tarnished reputation of the three ninjas caused by the interruption of the mission.
However, it was a time when there was serious warfare on the level of inter-state conflicts.
If it’s an era with a certain level of peace despite some minor skirmishes.
Your way of thinking might change… maybe.
Let’s just say that’s the case at the Chunin level.
I think it’s understandable if there are casualties of 100 people to save 2 or 3 individuals.
