"revenge."
Hinata used his gray eyes to 'stare' at Kakashi and said before Kakashi could react, he repeated it again: "The meaning of life is revenge."
"Now you can definitely understand that what happened to your father back then was not that simple."
"Those villagers who are constantly criticizing your father around your home must have one or more people behind them to control and guide them, in order to use rumors to force your father."
"Then, don't you want to find that person and kill him to avenge your father?"
Kakashi was shocked by what Hinata Kei said about the meaning of life. He originally thought it would be something like living, but Hinata Kei's answer was even heavier.
Taking a breath, Kakashi said: "Of course I do, but I can't let the village suffer turmoil because of my thoughts."
"Do you think that if you choose to be patient, the village will remain stable?" Hyuga Kai shook his head and said, "Have you ever thought that since the guy hiding behind the scenes can destroy your father, he can do the same? Destroy more people?”
"Kakashi, do you want to see more people go through what your father went through, with their families destroyed?"
Kakashi shook his head and denied, "Of course I don't want to, but..."
Hinata Kei looked serious and said: "Knowing the crime but not doing anything, silence and tolerance are the real crimes!"
Kakashi, like many villagers and ninjas, loves the village, loves his companions, and has a strong will of fire.
There are many people like Kakashi who love the village more than they love themselves. So for them, even if they sacrifice themselves, they are absolutely unwilling to let the village be harmed.
But as Hyuga Kei said, silence and tolerance are the real sins. If those moths that distort the will of fire and regard the interests of the village as their own are not eliminated, they will cause more harm to the village.
Therefore, if you want to make Konoha's tomorrow better, you can't just tolerate it, but you have to get rid of the borers in the village.
While Kakashi was still thinking, Hinata Kei continued: "Wherever the leaves are flying, fire is also growing. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and make new leaves sprout."
"The Will of Fire teaches us to sacrifice ourselves to protect the village. You don't think I'm wrong about this, do you?"
Kakashi was stunned for a moment, nodded subconsciously and said, "Yes, this is the meaning of the Will of Fire."
"Then now is the time for you to sacrifice your own safety and remove the darkness from the village!" Hinata Kei tilted his head and asked, "Don't you mean Kakashi that you are not willing to sacrifice yourself to make the village better?"
Kakashi didn't answer. Hinata showed a disappointed look and said, "It seems that I misjudged you. Kakashi, it turns out that you are a selfish, greedy and fearful person."
"No, that's not the case. I'm not afraid of sacrifice. What I'm afraid of is..."
Before Kakashi finished speaking, Hyuga Kai interrupted directly and said, "That's alright. Since you are not afraid, then you should stand up and eradicate the moths in the village."
"This is not only to avenge your father, but also to avoid the same tragedy and give the village a better future."
Kakashi was stunned. He couldn't find any reason to refute Hinata Kei's words, but it was completely different from what he thought.
Kakashi was hesitant, but also a little nervous, and Hinata Kei gave him another choice. The surge and fire in his heart told him that he was indeed waiting for someone to give him this answer - maybe revenge was for the village.
But shouldn’t sacrificing oneself refer to an act of self-sacrifice? Why did it turn into revenge in Hinata Kai's words? And revenge is to make the village better.
Kakashi was struggling, and Hinata Kei said: "Kakashi, I'm not forcing you to make a choice, I'm just telling you a concept."
"You don't have to be in such a hurry to tell me your choice. This mission ends here, and you can think about it later when you go back."
"No matter what choice you make, it is your own decision. No matter what, we are all here to make the village better, right?"
After saying this, Hinata Kei believed that Kakashi must be struggling for a long time.
Because he gave Kakashi another will of fire. Although both emphasize sacrifice, the objects of sacrifice are completely different.
In Hyuga Kei's view, the current will of fire has gone against the will of fire when Senju Hashirama was created.
The first Hokage believed that the purpose of establishing the village was to protect the children, the new force of the village. The older generation of ninjas represented by Naruto should protect them and sacrifice for them when necessary.
However, when the Will of Fire was passed down to Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Will of Fire began to emphasize personal sacrifice and dedication, making the village more prosperous.
If this is the case, then the will of fire preached by the third generation cannot be regarded as wrong.
But the problem is that Konoha has actually changed over the years. The new trees in the village have been burning, while the old trees are frantically absorbing nutrients.
Although this is too subjective and can be regarded as a conspiracy theory, it is indeed true from the results.
The new generation and the backbone of Konoha have died in these years, left the village, and defected.
This situation has happened many times, and no matter what the reason is, the bugs in the village cannot escape responsibility.
The will of fire in Hinata Kai's mouth is completely different from the will of fire that Kakashi has known from the ninja school and even for many years. It is destined that Kakashi cannot figure it out in a short time.
Kakashi was still struggling, but a long-lost notification sounded in Hinata Kei's ears.
[At the end of this psychological diagnosis and treatment, the patient was deeply touched by your experiment and deeply troubled by your remarks. Degree of psychic disturbance: The effect is outstanding. 】
[Based on the diagnosis and treatment results, you get: Chidori]
[Note: In the Thunder Release Ninjutsu developed by Kakashi, the caster concentrates the high-intensity current formed by the Thunder Release Chakra on the hand to pierce the target with the speed of the thrust. However, since the secret of the Chidori lies in the speed of the thrust, the caster may be too fast to see clearly the enemy and suffer a counterattack. 】
The reward obtained from Kakashi was Chidori, and Hinata Kei felt very happy.
Because any ninjutsu that involves changes in the nature and form of chakra is not much different. What's more, Chidori has strong plasticity and can derive a large number of moves.
Things like Chidori Style, Chidori Blade, Chidori Sharp Spear, Chidori Senbon, Kirin, etc. It can be said that this ninjutsu can be compared to the Rasengan to a certain extent.
As for Chidori's flaws, Hyuga Kei doesn't have to worry.
Because he can't see at all now, relying on his own perception ability. His powerful perception gives him a clearer 'sight' than the naked eye, and nothing can escape within his range of perception.
So even without the Sharingan, you can't even see. But he can accurately determine the enemy's every move.
Without continuing to diagnose and treat Kakashi, Hinata Kei took Kakashi on the way back to the village.
It took more than a month to get out, and the time to return to the village was relatively short. It took less than three days for the two of them to return to the outside of the village.
Standing at the gate of the village, Hyuga Kei said: "Let's go and report to the Third Generation. I believe he will be very happy to see you recover."
Kakashi was still thinking about Hinata Kei's words of revenge. After hearing the words, he came to his senses and did not refuse.
Soon the two arrived at the Hokage's building, and Hinata Kai opened the door to the Hokage's office.
"Sandaime-sama, I brought Kakashi back." Hinata Kei smiled and said hello.
"Hokage-sama." Kakashi greeted in the same way. His emotions were relatively dull, but there was already some energy on his face.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting on the Hokage's desk, first glanced at Hinata Kei, who was full of warm smiles, and his expression suddenly became a little dazed. He suddenly thought of the figure who was also full of smiles.
If the incident that year had not happened, his smile should be the same as Hinata Kei's now, right?
Dispersing the memories in his mind, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Kakashi beside him. When he saw that Kakashi's face was no longer as cold as before, he was slightly startled.
After a long while, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Hinata Kei: "Kei, did you let Kakashi come out so quickly?"
He didn't expect that in just one month, Hinata Kei would be able to free Kakashi from the whirlpool of darkness. Could it be that Hinata Kei, a psychiatrist, is so capable?
"It's not entirely my fault. Kakashi just got into trouble, so I took him out to relax and he recovered."
Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his chin and asked, "Can you tell me briefly? It's really amazing that you were able to recover Kakashi so quickly."
"Everywhere, the third generation of adults has taught me well."
Hyuga Kei probably talked about how he took Kakashi to experience his father's love, but he didn't tell the story about the three of them becoming tigers.
Hearing that the word 'father' was involved in Hinata Kaifa, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was smoking dryly, paused slightly. His expression became a little complicated at this moment, seeming to have a trace of regret, and also seemed to be a little bit... regret.
After a moment of silence, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said to Kakashi, "Kakashi, I didn't expect what happened back then. I failed to clarify the rumors for your father in time, which led to the tragedy."
"I am responsible for this matter. If I could have noticed it earlier, maybe the tragedy would not have happened."
"Lord Hokage, you have done enough for the village. Kakashi will definitely not blame you." Hinata Kei looked at Kakashi and said, "Right, Kakashi?"
Kakashi was silent for a moment and said, "What happened back then has passed."
"Kakashi, thank you for your hard work. You have been under so much pressure all this time." Hearing Kakashi's answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little moved. Then he looked at Hinata Kei beside him and said, "Kei, you can do it. very good."
"Sandaime-sama, I just did something that I could do. I am equally happy to be able to make Kakashi wake up."
Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, feeling that Hinata Kei was a little too humble. This was not something that was within his power, but rather a very difficult thing.
As for Kakashi's mental state, Minato had actually wanted to change it before him.
At the beginning, Minato wanted to let Kakashi join the ANBU and use complicated tasks to make Kakashi forget his pain. However, not only did Kakashi fail to come out, but he became even darker.
Then Minato sent Kakashi to take care of Kushina, hoping that through the emergence of new life, Kakashi would come out. However, with the advent of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Kakashi experienced the death of his teacher Minato and completely closed himself off.
Before Hyuga Kai's diagnosis and treatment, Kakashi was like a puppet who could only perform tasks. His eyes were indifferent to life, and even Sarutobi Hiruzen sometimes felt a little scary when he looked at him.
But now it seems that although Kakashi has not completely come out, at least he is no longer indifferent. Presumably as time goes by, he should be able to truly come out soon.
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Kei, do you think it is necessary for Kakashi to continue to receive your psychological treatment in the future?"
Hinata Kei shook his head and said: "No, Third Generation, what Kakashi needs now is no longer psychological diagnosis and treatment, but a good rest."
"Rest?" Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Kakashi and asked, "Kakashi, what do you mean?"
"Sandaime-sama, I want to take a good rest for a while." Kakashi said.
"Okay, then Kakashi, you will step down from your ANBU position first. After you have rested, I will arrange other things for you." Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed.
Looking at Hinata Kei, Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Kei, you should also take a good rest for a while. I will arrange tasks for you in the future."
"Yes, Lord Third, I am at your disposal at any time!" Hinata Kei said without hesitation.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand, indicating that the two of them could leave.
Hinata Kei and Kakashi walked out of the office together and walked outside the Hokage Building. Sarutobi Hiruzen stood by the window sill, looking at the two people's backs, and kept smoking an old cigarette. The smoke soon filled the entire office.
He originally did not expect Hinata Kei to be able to save Kakashi from the darkness in one go, but the result was completely beyond his expectation.
In just one month, Hinata Kai not only succeeded in making Kakashi's condition much better, but also made Kakashi let go of his obsession.
Hyuga Kei's ability and depth of will for fire exceeded his imagination. Such a talent may not only become the second Shisui, but also be able to do more for the village.
In fact, many ninjas in the village have various psychological problems. If Hinata Kei can diagnose and treat them well, even if it's only a partial diagnosis and treatment, that would be enough.
Due to some unexpected reasons, the village is now in decline, and he already regrets some of the decisions he made before.
But it was useless to regret now, so he felt that if Hinata Kei could persuade his two apprentices to come back, he might be able to make up for the consequences of some mistakes.
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen called an ANBU on duty at the door and said, "Bring me Hinata Kei's case report."
Since Hinata Kei has greater value, he also needs to show some sincerity. Only in this way can Hinata Kei be more motivated to do things.
