Sarutobi Hiruzen

The master who trained the legendary Sannin, the apprentice of the first and second generation Hokage. This ninja who is proficient in all ninjutsu in Konoha, this is called the strongest Hokage in history. But when he appeared in front of us, he looked like an old man, quietly watching the world.

He is Sarutobi Asuma's father, and he is Konohamaru's grandfather. But in fact, he is also a relative of everyone in the village.

He can face Konohamaru's request to stay before the battle and leave resolutely, because he is Hokage; he can also show the most kind love to every child who has lost a relative, because he He is the Hokage; he can fight resolutely when facing the mentor who came out of "The Reincarnation of the Earth", because he is the Hokage; he can also use "Ghoul Seal" on his beloved disciple, because he is the Hokage.

But the last two are fine, they are the things he least wants to do but have to do! How could he not feel heartbroken when his former disciple led his forces to attack his favorite village? In fact, you must have seen your disciple’s hatred of the world a long time ago! But why can't I bear it again and again? Is it a pity that a rare talent has been seen in these ten years? Or do you think of the happy and smiling child holding the white snake called "rebirth" when you were a child?

I thought this child could be entrusted with the future of Konoha! But you were still disappointed. The power of extreme pursuit blinded his eyes. Fortunately, the genius of the fourth generation appeared. He thought he could enjoy his old age, but after the sacrifice of the fourth generation, he had to take up heavy responsibilities again. Wrinkles cover your forehead, but there is no way to cover up your love for the village. I thought I could quietly shine here like the sunset, but your disciple still doesn't let you feel at ease.

When you knew that Lian Po was old and resorted to "Sealing the Ghosts" at the cost of his life, your apprentice resisted the power of death on his own. When you listened to your apprentice's vicious curses, you saw his childhood appearance in your eyes. You smiled peacefully and neatly cut off the connection with your apprentice. The ape demon also disappeared at this moment, but you became eternity at this moment.

As long as there are leaves flying, fire will burn, and the shadow of the fire will shine on the village.

The teachings of the first generation echoed in my ears, "The compatriots of Konoha are part of our body. The people in the village believe in me, and I believe in everyone. This is Naruto!"

Tsuna Hand Ji

Since when did I start to expect to see you even in my dreams? I started to expect that in my dreams I could be your XXX, or just a passerby. I begin to expect that I can be treated and loved/caressed by you when I am in danger, or that I can protect you who are occasionally vulnerable like the protagonist. How long has it been since the last time this happened? It's been a long time, it seems like you are just the second person.

If I fell in love with Haihara Ai, it is because her childish and indifferent appearance hides a mature and tough heart. Well, I fall in love with you because you can still maintain this youthful and energetic appearance after having a soul that has seen all the vicissitudes of life.

Having read all the vicissitudes of life, this is really not an exaggeration to describe you. The granddaughter of the first Hokage has the title of "Princess Tsunade"; the disciple of the third Hokage has the title of the legendary "Sannin". If the first title proves the purity and nobility of your bloodline, then the second title can only be obtained by you who are born in troubled times. What kind of world is it in troubled times? It seems difficult for us in the peaceful era to understand this. Then let’s refer to the First and Second World Wars that we have learned in history. "The Meat Grinder of Verdun" and "The Nanjing Massacre". These tragic names one after another reveal that cruel era. The Ninja World War can only be worse than that.

Noseki, the child who dreams of becoming Hokage. The grandson of the First Hokage, your brother. On his birthday, you gave him the precious First Hokage necklace as an encouragement, but you were brutally killed on the second day of the mission.

The poor child is beyond recognition. How can you, as a sister, bear this?

But you still endured it, and cheered up and made a reasonable suggestion to the Third Hokage to add one more medical ninja to each team. In view of the lack of strength in the village, your teacher did not accept your proposal, but a jounin still strongly agreed. This is the eternal pain in your heart.

Broken, this ninja who dreams of becoming Naruto, this gentle man with long lavender hair. You fell in love like this, and as proof and encouragement of love, you gave him the precious necklace of the First Hokage, and kissed his forehead like you did to your younger brother. A beautiful woman and a gentle man should have formed the most wonderful picture in the world. But all this came to an abrupt end on that rainy night. You are also on a mission, and you are in the same team, but under the assassination of the enemy, your lover is dying. Even if you already had superb medical ninjutsu at that time, no matter how much reluctance there was between you, there was still no way to save the day.

Your lover, what is he saying intermittently, "I don't want to die...I haven't yet...I still want..."? He hasn't given you happiness yet, he still wants to protect you. But even so, your lover still lost his life in front of you, and all good things and all hopes ended at this moment.

Since then, you have suffered from hemophobia, and you can't help but tremble when you see blood. As a medical ninja, how can you continue?

From then on, you left the village with your niece Shizune and traveled around. This is really a pain that life cannot bear!

Some people say that after the war, among the "Three Ninjas", Jiraiya learned to take responsibility, Orochimaru learned to hate, and you learned to escape, and said that your gambling everywhere is proof! But why is it muted? Why would you teach others all your ninjutsu skills? Isn't this a kind of responsibility? Are you going to let a woman who lost two relatives continue to return to work after suffering from hemophobia? Being around patients and corpses? Shouldn’t it be relieved and released until it’s time to stand up again?

Naruto, the protagonist who dreams of becoming Hokage. You may not agree with him at first. Because you no longer believe in dreams. Even if the white-haired man advises you to go back and become the Fifth Hokage. What do you care about? The good times of the past seem to still be there yesterday, and it still hurts to uncover the scars. But you are still unknowingly infected by the protagonist, and you bet him that you will give him the necklace if he succeeds. He succeeded, even though he was bruised and bruised. You gave him the necklace as promised, and he also gave you courage. You have overcome hemophobia and started your wonderful battle.

Because you are, the Fifth Hokage. Don't worry, no matter how powerful this ominous necklace is, it can't match the protagonist Xiaoqiang's vitality.

Still remember the last time you met that white-haired man. The setting sun reflects on your rosy cheeks like a girl. You don’t even know what kind of relationship you have with him. You asked him not to leave, but you didn't have the courage to hold the hand that you had been waiting for your whole life. You bet that he will die, because you always lose bets, but you won this time. Facing Naruto's questioning, you were calm and seemed to have no emotions, but once you took off your identity as Hokage, you leaned against the wall and cried like a child.

What do you mean, I don’t feel heartbroken for you?

When Pain came and faced the apprentice who killed the white-haired man, you used all your chakra to save countless people. His life was exhausted at the last moment and he fell into coma. Just because you are the Fifth Hokage.

Put aside all your status and honor, in fact you are just a woman waiting for love. But there is no way to catch the last man who gave you a lifetime of love. But it doesn't matter, you are Hokage, and you still have so many leaves that are willing to burn for you.

Naruto is not only your responsibility, but also your exclusive right.

Please let me, once again, dream of you.

Jiraiya

"Oh~~~" Accompanied by the gorgeous and funny Peking Opera music, your first formal self-introduction That’s how it appeared. "Regardless of east, west, and west, the whole world is unrivaled by the white-haired boy Toad Sennin among the three ninjas. The handsome man who can even shut up a crying child, is Jiraiya-sama." He was wearing wooden clogs, carrying a scroll on his back, the deep red traces coming from the corners of his eyes, and his exaggerated expression and tone. At that time, I thought this was an uncle who was just trying to liven up the atmosphere. But I ignored the really important information in that paragraph. "Sannin". It's no wonder that Naruto only remembered the word "Sage" and creatively called out the restricted title "Lawful Sage" based on your characteristics.

It’s so lustful. Considering your performance, it’s really not an exaggeration to say so. He spied on girls bathing in hot springs, and had a "glorious battle history" where he was beaten half to death by Tsunade for doing such a thing. He would go to any lengths to see it, and even immediately agreed to teach him ninjutsu because of one of Naruto's seduction techniques. , wrote the pornographic novel "Intimate Paradise" and it is still so popular. This is you, isn't it?

It's just the surface. I have never seen a contradictory person who is so lustful yet so dedicated like you. On the one hand, he constantly strikes up conversations with various young women, but on the other hand, he always retains the most important position for the woman he loves throughout his life until he dies. This is you, right!

As a master, you are undoubtedly the most successful one. The fourth generation was taught by you, Pain, Konan was taught by you, and even our protagonist Naruto is your apprentice. Still remember what you said to Orochimaru who was eagerly waiting for the arrival of the genius Sasuke and belittled Naruto, "What's the point of teaching a genius? It's great to be able to teach an ordinary person to become a genius." Because you are not a genius originally. This gave the third generation who was enamored with Orochimaru a headache. But you still became stronger and became a great ninja. The old toad of Miaomu Mountain once said, "You are not the child of prophecy, but you will lead the child of prophecy and even determine the direction of the entire world." You have to make such a major decision. In the last article, I said that I don't admit that others evaluate Tsunade's avoidance, but I strongly agree with evaluating your commitment. You took over this responsibility and used materials from all over to increase your cultivation, just to be able to make the right decision at the critical moment.

Sometimes I wonder whether the creation of this genius, the Fourth Generation, besides himself, depends largely on your contribution. I can get an idea of ??it by watching you accompany Naruto in his training. Leaving at the most unexpected moment, coming back without showing up at the most critical moment, paying attention silently, and giving love and warmth to the apprentice in the most natural way. Your delicacy is actually not inferior to anyone else's. Dear Master!

Still remember what you said to the young Nagato when he wrongly killed someone, "When you are hurt, people will hold grudges. On the other hand, when you hurt others, you will be hated and feel guilty." But it is precisely because of understanding this pain that people become kinder. This is human beings! "In this situation, I can't think of anything more meaningful and philosophical than yours. You are worthy of the title of leading the son of prophecy.

But later, one of your sons of prophecy went to an extreme because of the war, and he wanted to use war to end the war. I don’t know how you knew this top-secret information, so you decided to carry out this extremely difficult and dangerous task and report it to Fifth Generation, but she did not agree. But why do you still want to go? This is her invitation to stay, how can you bear to refuse? You said:

"Our duty is to set an example for the next generation and help them. It is precisely because of this that we will sacrifice our lives with a smile. This is the demeanor of a ninja. Men only do this when they have been dumped. Becoming stronger, those who have no sense of self-control and treat this as a joke are incompetent, and happiness or something like that is not something that men should pursue."

You just left the woman you have been pursuing all your life. . There is no doubt that you had a tough fight. Fighting against his former apprentice and owner of the Samsara Eye - Pain's Six Paths.

You showed no fear of this man who had the power to destroy a country. Such a glorious battle was fought. A Pain corpse, a Hidden Rain Village ninja, and the code you left on Lord Toad. This is the information you worked so hard for. How can the woman who became Hokage bear this?

At the end of your life, you said this: "For ninjas, it doesn't matter how you live, it's how you die that matters. The value of a ninja's life is not determined by how he lives. . Looking back, my life has been a failure. I was constantly rejected by the women I liked, and I failed to stop my friends from going astray. I also failed to protect my master and apprentice. Compared with the great achievements of the past Hokages, what I have done is It's so useless and boring. I originally wanted to die like the previous Hokage, and the success or failure of the story was blocked at the end. That achievement could erase the glory of all previous failures."

This is it. You, you still want to take responsibility even until the last moment.

I quote a lot of his own words in this article because I couldn’t find a better description.

Lord Jiraiya. In some ways, they are truly beyond human beings, like immortals.

Mitarai Anko

According to the order, this should be the location of Orochimaru, one of the "Sannin". But he was different from Itachi. Itachi dedicated himself to the peace of Konoha and died, even if his reputation was ruined. But he is completely hostile to Konoha in order to destroy the existence of peace. Although he has a strong personality. I also have no way of putting him in the "revolutionary" column. But you are different. Although you are his apprentice, with your title as Konoha's special Jonin, you are the only one who can take on this position and is the most suitable person.

The first time you impressed me deeply was when I discovered Orochimaru's traces during the Chunin Exam. So exciting, so unsettling, and even, in my opinion, a little bit elated. Just like this, you chase Orochimaru alone. As his disciple, don't you understand that his power is superior to yours? But you still went, just because he is your master.

After catching up, my first sentence was "Why are you still here now?" Now, still here. Does this mean that you once expected to meet him at some time in the past? Within a few words of conversation, you launched your attack. "Latent Shadow Snake Hand" is such a familiar skill. Do you really think you can defeat him this way? Or do you just want to get back a little bit of the gentle feeling you had during your past practice? Sure enough, it was useless, but then, you actually used the fatal ninjutsu of "Two Snakes Killing Each Other". Do you really want him to die? Or do you just want to be with him? The difference in levels made you almost die under your own attack. But I didn’t let you die, it’s still that master!

He stroked your face under the hair like he did when he was a child, and you also blushed like a child. "Why are you so impatient? Do you still regret that I abandoned you?" He said to you. Abandon it? He abandoned you like this and left again, reaching the end that you couldn't reach.

In the following days, you, who has the same curse seal as Sasuke, are tortured by his remaining power all the time. Together with Naruto and the others, you embark on the road to find the memory that was lost by Orochimaru. Returning to the place where I had been with him, the power of the curse seal would always pour out. Does this mean that you still have a longing for your master from the heart, just like the curse seal, no matter how hard you try to suppress it. It remains unforgettable.

Finally, you found your memory, where you spent the painful time. You remembered that when Orochimaru asked you if you wanted to go with him, it was you who shook your head and said "no". It's not that he abandoned you, it's that you rejected him. How important this memory is to you.

Still remember the shuriken you threw at Naruto when you first appeared, as well as your murderous and charming eyes and aggressive tongue. I have to admit that as a master, he gave you something very important.

These are all the things that make me fall in love with you.

Kakashi Hatake

This is a character who gained great popularity as soon as he appeared and continues to this day. Such popularity makes me feel so inferior that I am afraid of the moment I write. Then I thought, what does his popularity come from? Is it his mystery? Is it his lazy yet serious character? Or is he so affectionate yet so free and easy? I don't know, but everyone takes their favorite aspect of the character and magnifies it until it's perfect.

Okay, let’s talk about his mystery first. What does his face look like under the mask? This is his most superficial mystery. But it is precisely because of the surface that the mysterious power is revealed when other characters are simply let us know, but he is the only one who keeps it secret. An episode once used to liven things up reveals the answer: underneath the mask, or the mask. At the time, everyone was speechless by this nonsensical joke, but now that I think about it, it makes sense. When we all know that there is a Sharingan under his forehead protector; when we all know that he is the son of Konoha White Fang; when we all know the story between him and Obito and the reason why he is always late. . . . . . Do we just think that we know everything about him and have penetrated his mystery?

After uncovering one layer of his mysterious veil, there is another even more mysterious layer.

He is lazy. The most prominent manifestation is that I am late again and again and the strange reasons for being late. "I lost my way on the road of life today...I went to help an old lady cross the road today...I saw a black cat today..." Such inexplicable but hilarious remarks, when we are in this The lovely reality is found in the imaginary characters. Remember the ninja qualification test at the beginning? Facing Naruto's attack, he fumbled for a long time and took out the "Intimate Paradise" written by Jiraiya. Facing Naruto's question, he replied arrogantly, "My reading has nothing to do with you." This resulted in his unique handsome posture. Of course, there were also strange reasons for failure such as Naruto and Sakura successfully grabbing the bell because they wanted to know the plot behind it.

Such a character trait makes us feel his special personality charm in life.

He is serious, and this should be the driving force of his character. When the forehead protector is pushed up and the Sharingan is exposed, a series of names can be applied to him. "Copy Ninja Kakashi", "Konoha's No. 1 Technician" and "Genius Ninja Kakashi". . . There is also the almost constant affirmation that no matter how powerful a person is when he sees him. They all directly told us his strength. No matter how dangerous the situation is or how difficult the opponent is, he has the magical power to make people feel at ease just by seeing him.

Do you still remember the first time Iruka asked the third generation about Kakashi’s apprentice? Yes, no group is qualified, so serious, so serious that it feels too harsh. His standards make people feel so complicated, but in fact they are so simple, so simple that they can be summed up in four words: "team spirit." When Naruto was tied to a pillar and warned the other two not to feed him, the test had actually just begun. The black shadow hiding in the shadow of the tree and observing everything secretly, and when he saw the scene he wanted to see The joy in his heart, but what was revealed was the terrifying and powerful aura, but it disappeared in an instant, leaving only Kakashi-sensei who said "qualified" with a friendly smile and squinted eyes. All of this makes people so fascinated by him.

But in the final analysis, the words "team spirit" were told to him by his companion named Uchiha Obito. His father's suicide left a huge shadow on him: "Ninjas who break the rules are trash." As a Jonin, he performed missions with Obito who couldn't open his eyes.

He's the captain, he's in a leadership position, of course. But when Lin was captured, when he said that he would give up saving people and complete the mission, when Obito said the wise words that he would often repeat in the future, "Yes, in the world of ninjas, those who break the rules will be punished." When you call them trash, people who don’t cherish their companions are worse than trash.” Something was changing inside this talented ninja who had been indifferent since childhood. When Obito opened his eyes to protect his companions, when Obito was crushed under the boulder to save him. His thought of cherishing his companions even more than his tasks finally took shape. When the right side of Obito's body was completely shattered but he smiled and said that he would give his Sharingan to Kakashi as a gift to be called a Jonin, the first companion he wanted to cherish closed his eyes. That's why he was able to use the Sharingan again and again with a physique that did not belong to the Uchiha clan, and even developed a "Kaleidoscope" that was unique to him. These efforts were all just because he wanted to use Obito's eyes and Together, he sees the road ahead clearly.

That’s why he would go to Obito’s grave to talk to him before every mission. Because he knew that Obito was a person who couldn't bear loneliness. A person may be able to do something for a period of time, or he may be able to do it for decades. Is it the depth of his longing? Or extremely affectionate?

He is also free and easy. Do you still remember the classic series between Haku and Zabuza? When Haku instantly moved in front of Zabuza to help him block Raikiri's attack, and when Zabuza was about to chop down Haku's body together, he just stopped pursuing Haku's harm to Sasuke and Naruto and held Haku in his arms. He dodged the attack and put it on the ground. He helped Bai close his eyes with his hands and admired Bai from the bottom of his heart. When Zabuza was unable to defeat him and was at a disadvantage due to the sadness of losing Haku, when the gang of bad guys wanted to kill Zabuza, he immediately stopped attacking just because his stance changed, and when Zabuza asked him to help, see When Shiro glanced at him, he quietly agreed, and when Zabuza thought he couldn't go to the same place as Shiro, he told him that he would definitely be able to.

This is him, so free and easy. In fact, this free and easy is another manifestation of love.

In recent theatrical versions and animated plots, he appears as a victim. When Konoha is in danger, he will always rush to the front. This is true even when fighting against a powerful being like Pain. Because he cherishes every companion so much and is so unwilling to let them be harmed in the slightest. Even if he himself is reduced to ashes.

Kakashi-sensei, the worthy successor to the Will of Fire.

Sunset Red

Those blood-colored pupils as transparent as amber, the concentric circles are as deep as a pool of water. Your eyes were the first thing I noticed when I saw you for the first time, and then it was the call from the Hokage before the Chunin Exam. Against the green background, you are the only one in red. So striking, yet so harmonious. You stood in such a quiet posture next to the man chewing a cigarette. Later, I found out that you were Kiba, Shino, Hinata's teacher, I found out that you were that man's wife, I found out that you were good at genjutsu, but you lost to the Sharingan in the competition with Itachi, and I found out that the man died in the battle. You were pregnant with his child at that time, and now you are cared about by Shikamaru. If I hadn’t watched Yakumo’s original anime series, this is all I would know about you.

Watching Yakumo’s series, I saw the feeling of a detective film for the first time. Follow Team 8 and Naruto who were abandoned by you, trying to uncover your unknown secrets. That girl named Yakumo, that child who was physically weak but had high hopes from the declining clan just because of her talent for genjutsu. From the moment the Third Hokage asked you, the most powerful ninja in illusion in the village, to be Yakumo's personal teacher, you were destined to bear this child's lifelong hatred. Because you didn't teach her illusions, but sealed her abilities. Looking at the child who cried and begged you to teach her illusions just because she didn't want to live up to the expectations of her tribe, you so coldly deprived her and her entire tribe of their pride.

When you asked Shikamaru to light the last cigarette for you, did you know that the woman who was watering the flowers was restless? When you entrusted Kurenai and your unborn child to Shikamaru, did you know that she almost fainted because the flowers disappeared in the wind? When the fire goes out and you stop breathing, do you know how much that woman in the distance hopes that she was just caught in her own illusion?

You threw your lover, your child, and all the "jade" you want to protect to Shikamaru. Why do you sleep peacefully like this, man!

This man who always bites a cigarette when he appears, this man who gives his wife all the love that makes people feel at ease, this man who did not cry at his father's funeral, this discovery He met Shikamaru, a genius man. Why on earth were you able to leave with peace of mind? Do you believe in the strength of women, the ability of apprentices, or the will of fire in the lighter?

As a husband, you leave a future for your wife and give her sustenance; as a master, you leave a lighter for your apprentice and give him faith; as a ninja, you give everyone in the village a future. It left the possibility of safety for them to protect.

This is you, this man shrouded in smoke, a great life!
