Start From Parsing Wood Style

Chapter 5 Memorial

The so-called heard, that is already affirmed.

Cold sweat emerged from Kotaro’s forehead, and his whole body was dumbfounded, and the invisible fear enveloped him, making him unable to say a word for a while.

He should have known that in Rain Shinobi Village, nothing could escape the leader’s eyeliner, and he was discovered.

“What are you nervous about?”

Hanzō of the Salamander came to him, staring at his stiff face, his voice flat.

Kotaro wanted to kneel and spare his life, but he couldn’t do it because of nervousness. Facing each other head-on, the tremendous pressure made him feel weak.

“As your leader, am I the other stingy person?”

Hanzō of the Salamander spoke again, his voice mixed with smiles, as if expressing his kindness.

Kotaro was startled, he was inexplicably relieved, and then shook his head abruptly: “Oh, my lord, damn it, of course not!”

“It’s a good thing to teach the method of becoming a ninja to the talented people in the village.”

“Isn’t it?”

Hanzō of the Salamander asked rhetorically, staring at Kotaro, who saw nothing but coldness.

“Yes!”

He lowered his head, his body trembling slightly.

“I also believe that Kotaro, you can teach the Chakra refining method to that commoner, then, he must be a very talented person, right?”

The successive questions left Kotaro’s mind blank, and he could only respond numbly.

“Yes, he is very talented and will definitely become a great ninja in Rain Shinobi Village.”

Hanzō of the Salamander heard this and suddenly smiled.

“Hahahaha, very good, I look forward to his penultimate performance on the battlefield in the future.”

After speaking, he turned around abruptly and left.

After a long while, Kotaro remained frozen in place until his companion awakened him.

“It’s very lucky for you, Hanzo-sama, to acquiesce in what you did.”

Kotaro’s scalp was numb, and he swallowed. Only he knew that the other party did not forgive him. At the last moment he left, the cold words only echoed in his ears.

There are only four words, but it is extremely cold.

“Not an example!”

He was indeed lucky to survive this catastrophe, but in the future, I am afraid that there will be countless little shoes to wear, and his fate will be ill-fated.

When everyone dispersed in twos and threes, a ninja with a mask came to Kotaro again.

Kotaro became nervous, and he recognized that the opponent was from the guard next to Hanzo-sama.

“Kotaro, Hanzo-sama has something for me to pass to you.”

“Please say!”

Kotaro said immediately.

“Since you taught that person how to become a ninja, he should also be a ninja. Tomorrow’s memorial ceremony, take him with you!”

The mask ninja narrated Hanzo’s words mechanically, and even the expression in his eyes became cold.

Kotaro wanted to scold the other party with a naive sentence, but he didn’t dare, so he nodded his promise.

“I must bring him here.”

In a blink of an eye, the mask ninja disappeared.

Kotaro let out a sigh just now, and his whole body felt relaxed, but soon his expression turned helpless again.

“I said, Ise brother, it might be more dangerous to become a ninja.”

“What’s more, your current strength is probably no different from civilians.”

That afternoon, Ise saw Kotaro.

Seeing the helpless and worried face of the other party, sitting in front of him sighed.

“I’m sorry that you were involved in this war. You shouldn’t have participated in this kind of thing.”

“I really shouldn’t give you the way to practice Chakra.”

With a smile on Ise’s face, he poured a glass of water for the other party: “You and I should be thankful that the leader can acquiesce and agree to this matter.”

“As for being involved in the war.”

After a pause, Ise’s expression became serious.

“When the war started, no matter it was a ninja or a civilian, there was actually no way to avoid it, right?”

Kotaro was stunned: “Maybe you are right, but you are still sorry.”

“No regrets, I just started to practice Chakra. With my qualifications, I am afraid that I will not be able to achieve any results for a long time.”

“With my combat power, the village won’t just let me go to the battlefield to die, right?”

Ise laughed.

Kotaro opened his mouth, feeling a little ashamed, but he responded to Hanzo-sama, who had the talent to become a ninja. According to his statement, combined with the current situation in the village, I am afraid that Ise will have to be sent to the battlefield at the latest three months.

“Master Hanzo said, let you go to the village tomorrow to participate in the memorial ceremony. You have obtained the Chakra cultivation method, and you are also qualified.”

Finally, Kotaro left.

Ise didn’t care about this. He didn’t know how much time he had left, and he didn’t know if he was still alive when he could go to the battlefield.

As for characters like Hanzo, he doesn’t even care about small people like him.

In other words, except that he has entered Hanzo’s eyes, his life has no influence whatsoever.

In the early morning of the second day, there was a grassy flat ground in Rain Shinobi Village.

A group of figures came here silently, holding a white paper flower in their hands, standing there quietly, staring at the square black spots ahead.

Each square black dot represents a life lost. Of course, these people were all ninjas who died on the battlefield. Ordinary civilians died, and they were not even qualified to leave their names. If you want to have a burial site, it is even more impossible.

“Ise, here.”

As soon as Ise walked here, Kotaro greeted him in a low voice.

“Has it started?”

Lowering his voice, Ise mixed into the crowd, came to Kotaro’s side, and asked softly.

“Not yet, but it’s coming soon.”

Kotaro said with a heavy expression.

In this kind of occasion, I am infected by the atmosphere, and naturally I can’t be happy.

Ise didn’t speak any more. He looked over the crowd and saw that there were steps arranged in front of him, with dense black dots and squares, and his pupils contracted.

I couldn’t see my head at a glance, and there was dead silence, a deep breath filled, and the rain in the sky became quiet at this moment.

Each black dot represents a dead life.

Ise froze there. This was the first time that he deeply felt the coldness, indifference and cruel reality of this world.

He faced the death of the war!

They were all new graves, and he couldn’t even predict how many there were. These are all ninjas, and the deaths of civilians are even more uncountable.

War is a meat grinder!

This sentence echoed in Ise’s ears, making him clenched his fists.

“A lot of people’s corpses are left in the battlefield and cannot be retrieved.”

In the ear, Kotaro’s whisper sounded.

“It’s a heavy heart, right? But this is the case with the war, and relax, because no one knows whether he will be the next person to lie here.”

“Or maybe, the corpse is buried in the front line, and forever loses the qualification to return to his hometown.”
