Chapter 271 Attitude
"The age of the ninja is over."

As soon as he returned to Konoha, Iruka was called by Tsunade and Jiraiya to the former Hokage office, the current "Konoha General Administration Office", without any politeness of reunion after a long absence, Tsunade said straight to the point.

"More than three months ago, Sasuke suddenly launched a worldwide ninjutsu, forcibly depriving almost all ninjas of their power. Although Naruto and the others found the headquarters of Sasuke's organization, Naruto was defeated by Sasuke, and his life and death were unknown. , other people can't resist Sasuke's power, and they are still controlled by Sasuke. Since then, no one in the ninja world can stop Sasuke's actions. Now, Gokage, including me, and Jiraiya and the others These ninjas who have been famous for a long time have completely lost their power and turned into ordinary people."

"Your student is really amazing. He actually subverted the ninja system in just one month."

After a pause, Zilai continued neither sad nor happy: "Thanks to him, strength is no longer the benchmark of personal value, and the sacrifice of ninjas is no longer needed to maintain the peace of the village. The era of peace that people have been pursuing has finally arrived with the end of the ninja era."

"Is it."

Iruka raised the teacup, took a sip, then just held the teacup like this, walked to the window sill, stared at the flow of people below, which was obviously much less than before, with a calm expression on his face.

"The world's biggest problem has been solved. It sounds like a happy thing, but why can't I feel a little bit of joy in you two? Could it be because you are reluctant to part with power?"

Tsunade shook his head, denied Iruka's question, but did not explain, but pulled out a file from the desk, opened it and handed it to Iruka.

"Look at this first."

"what is this?"

Iruka took the file and glanced at it for a while. The next moment, he was suddenly stunned, and as if he had expected his reaction, Tsunade sighed and said in a heavy tone:

"List of Konoha ninjas who committed suicide last month."

Looking at the hundreds of names on the form, Iruka frowned. Although all of them were unfamiliar names, it didn't mean that Iruka would be indifferent to it.

Zilai also sighed, and said with great regret:

"For some ninjas, chakra and ninjutsu are their everything, the only reason to live, and they cannot use chakra, lose their qualifications as ninjas, and they lose their own meaning of existence. Although Tsunade and I They have long passed the age of pursuing those things, even if they lose their strength, they will only feel a little bit of emotion, but they are different, they suddenly lost their dreams, and it is only natural for them to do stupid things when they are extremely confused."

"Is it."

Iruka put down the file with a complicated expression on his face.

"This is just one of the many problems in the era created by Uchiha Sasuke. Others, such as the former ninja's stay and employment after the disintegration of Ninja Village, the system of various countries, the business system, etc., are becoming more and more serious. Although Uchiha Sasuke He can use absolute power to put an end to all darkness, but his power cannot be used to shorten the distance between people and each other’s hearts, and let this situation continue.”

pat!

Iruka put the teacup on the window sill, and before Tsunade finished speaking, he interrupted: "There are two possibilities, one is that although the world does not have any darkness, it will not have any colors, and it will only become more and more dark." In the blank material and spirit, step into sinking; the other is to overcome all difficulties, slowly heal the wounds as time goes by, and finally usher in a new life completely, and no matter what the result is, the world will be completely destroyed. Stepping into peace, the only difference is the form of peace."

Hearing this, Jiraiya and Tsunade nodded at the same time.

"Is this why you focus on training Sasuke?"

"That's it."

Iruka shrugged, put the form back on the desk, and his face regained his usual ease.

"The new era is full of uncertainties. Even I don't know whether the era created by Sasuke will be good or bad. I don't even know if this is the final appearance of the era. The future is full of uncertainties, and I I am just an observer. Although I am in this world, I will not use my own will to influence the future of this world. I will only see with my own eyes, so don’t expect me to change the status quo. It is absolutely impossible. , even if Sasuke's actions will make the world full of holes, or even fall into the abyss of eternal doom, I will not stop him."

Without waiting for Jiraiya and Tsunade to tell the reason why they were so eager to find him, Iruka directly expressed his attitude, and after hearing his words, the two of them didn't have the slightest surprise on their faces, but a look of "Sure enough so" expression.

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

"No."

Iruka replied decisively, and continued: "It is impossible for me to attack my students. This is the teacher's trust in my students. I believe that they can perfectly complete the tasks I entrusted to them. At the end of the day, hand me an answer sheet that satisfies me."

Noticing that Iruka's words did not only mention Sasuke who has become the "protagonist" of this era, Jiraiya frowned.

"Are you still looking forward to Naruto? Although he is only missing now, he hasn't returned to the village yet, I'm afraid."

"The result has not yet come out, everything is still full of variables, it is too early to draw conclusions, Naruto is a child who often brings me "surprises", I will always look forward to that child's activity until the dust settles. .”

After leaving this sentence, Iruka left. He was not very familiar with Jilai, at least not to the point where he would treat guests to tea when they met on the road. No interest of any kind, so even if they haven't seen each other for months, he has nothing to talk to them about.

Unlike ordinary ninjas, even if Sasuke's technique that covers the entire world will always run automatically, Iruka will not be affected in the slightest, so when Iruka uses the instant body technique to leave, absolutely no one in the whole world can stop it he.

"Well, it seems that we can only wait quietly for the final result."

Zilai also shook his head with a helpless expression.

After leaving the office of the Konoha General Administration, Iruka did not rush back to the teacher's apartment which had become extremely deserted, but activated his ability and flew towards the Land of Thunder.

With his current strength, in less than half a minute, he appeared above a certain mountain in the Land of Thunder, and the moment he appeared, standing on the top of the mountain, the black-haired man stood straight against the violent cold wind of the mountain. The boy suddenly raised his head, and the eyes that had lost focus gradually regained the expression that a person should have.

"Iruka-sensei, you are here."

"Ah"

Iruka was not at all surprised that Sasuke could instantly perceive his existence, and would be surprised if he couldn't perceive him. After a chuckle, Iruka's figure flashed and appeared in front of Sasuke in an instant.

"Long time no see, Sasuke."
