Chapter 70 Philosophy
Controlling the slate to suspend in mid-air, Iruka jumped down with Sasuke.

"You idiot, always causing trouble, you can't..."

Sasuke was about to complain, but he suddenly found that Naruto was staring at the scene in front of him in a daze, obviously deaf to his words, Sasuke couldn't help feeling a little upset, and subconsciously followed his gaze.

The next moment, he instantly understood why Naruto reacted like this——

On an unknown hillside not far away, the original yellow earth was now stained red with blood. Dozens of ninja corpses lying on the ground can be seen from the clothes of two different ninja villages. Some were killed alone, some died together, and some were caught after killing others and then killed by others; the corpses seemed to be a little haggard on the surface due to long-term storage, but all of them had the same expression appearance.

All of them had extremely unwilling eyes. None of the ninjas died with their eyes closed, and their corpses were covered with various shurikens and kunai, and there were traces of various ninjutsu around them, as if telling See how cruel this local ninja war is.

"Iruka-sensei, this... this is?!"

With a vibrato, Naruto resisted the fear of seeing a corpse for the first time, and asked Iruka without looking back.

His reaction was normal. After all, he is just a ninja school student who has never experienced a real battle or seen a dead body. Compared with him, Sasuke is much calmer. After all, he has experienced the genocide tragedy. , the scene of his parents lying dead in front of him, to him, even if he didn't go through the real battlefield, there wouldn't be any scene that he couldn't bear anymore.

Aware of the completely different reactions of the two, Iruka, who knew why Sasuke's psychological endurance was so strong, couldn't help but sighed, shook his head, and shook off the emotion he shouldn't have at this time, and then slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, quite Deeply said:

"Ninjas are just fighting for the things they guard. Well, this is the ninja world now. Remember this situation. Anyway, if you can't become truly powerful, you will go on the same path sooner or later."

Hearing this, the two were stunned at the same time, and asked in unison:

"Mr. Iruka, what is real power?"

"Whether a person is strong or not, there are three decisive factors. If they are arranged in order, they are [will], [strength] and [idea]. If any of the three elements cannot be achieved, it cannot be considered truly strong."

"Idea. Will and..."

"strength……"

Naruto looked confused. For him now, it is still difficult to understand what Iruka said. After all, he is not smart. No, it should be said that it has nothing to do with smartness. But it looked thoughtful.

Carefully observing the reactions of the two, Iruka secretly shook his head.

'It's still too early, well~ I didn't expect them to understand thoroughly, now I just need to plant the seeds and wait for them to grow up and bear their own fruits. '

In his opinion, as a ninja teacher, or the guide of the road of power, what is really important is not to impart knowledge or power to them, but to guide and open their wisdom, so that they have their own independent thinking, not What others say they take for granted.

After all, knowledge is not the same as wisdom. Knowledge is limited, and even knowledgeable knowledge will be eclipsed in front of infinity. Wisdom is creative.

Moreover, in the face of two extremely outstanding students, Iruka's original idea of ​​having no desires and desires for this world has been shaken. Now he faintly feels that the answer to a certain question that he has been looking for in the previous life may be able to solve the problem. Maybe find it through their unpredictable future.

Because of this, he will try his best to cultivate the two of them, otherwise, just giving them training rings and strengthening their foundation has already fulfilled his duties as a teacher, and there is no need to use his own strength Bet on their unknown future.

And now, by deliberately letting them see the epitome of the current situation of the ninja world in front of them, guiding them to present their own ideas, so that they can completely consolidate the cornerstone of becoming a strong man.

After all, they already have the spiritual realm, that is, they have [power], and it is precisely because of their [will] that they are attracted to them, so the only thing they lack now is——

"Will is a prerequisite, and people without will are not worthy of power; power without norms is violence, but a killing machine; therefore, the core part of true strength is a good idea."

That's right, Sasuke and Naruto have already possessed strength and will, and now only the last and most critical part is left, and their future achievements depend on their ideas.

"Mr. Iruka, what is an idea?"

Iruka thought for a while, then suddenly chuckled, and answered the wrong question:
"Before I answer your question, let me ask you a question."

After a pause, Iruka continued under the puzzled eyes of the two: "What is your ideal?"

"Become Hokage, get the approval of everyone in the village, and surpass all previous Hokages!"

"Kill that man!"

Hearing Iruka's question, Naruto and Sasuke said without hesitation, their voices were full of unshakable will, but facing their imposing answer, Iruka shook his head, with unknown meaning. road:

"Naruto's ideal is to be recognized by everyone in the village, but Sasuke's ideal is revenge?"

Naruto and Sasuke nodded at the same time, and the next moment, they heard Iruka's voice as if talking to himself:

"So it's all self-satisfaction~"

Hearing this, Sasuke suddenly froze, but Naruto asked directly:
"Iruka-sensei, is there something wrong?"

Iruka shook his head: "Well, there's nothing wrong with it. After all, it's just an ideal. An idea born from a certain person, a certain family, or a certain organization can only go so far in the end. Your current capabilities are enough to realize your ideals, but you are still far from being truly powerful."

"Uh, Teacher Iruka, I can't understand what you are saying, can you speak as simple as possible?"

Hearing this, Iruka's eyes twitched suddenly——

It is said that after the development of the spiritual domain, the thinking should become quicker, so why is Naruto still so stupid?
He sighed helplessly, thought for a while, and felt that those obscure and difficult things were really embarrassing for Naruto, who is not related to intelligence now, and, as I said before, it is not as good as just imparting knowledge. Guide them to think on their own, to summarize, and to draw their own conclusions.

"Okay, what I want to say is that if you want to become a real strong person, you must have the corresponding philosophy, and the philosophy is to break free from all restrictions of individuals, families, organizations, etc., and look at yourself from the most objective perspective. All the phenomena you see, and then draw your own conclusions, and finally the thinking rules that you have produced because of this conclusion. For example..."

Having said that, Iruka suddenly twitched his mouth, and in Naruto's still confused, Sasuke's thoughtful eyes, he pointed to the red-stained hillside not far away:

"What do you think of the miniature of the status quo of the ninja world you see? Why do you think so? What conclusions do you draw in the end? And what will you be inspired by this conclusion?"
