Chapter 7 Death of White Fang
During this period of time, the atmosphere in Konoha has become increasingly weird.
Uchiha Feiyu, who often passed by Kakashi's house and occasionally visited, had already discovered that many villagers were looking at the Hatake family's house avoidantly. People passing by on the street all had solemn expressions, as if they knew a big secret but could not tell it.
Uchiha Feiyu knew very well what these people knew, which was nothing more than the failure of Hatake Sakumo's mission. He thought that this kind of thing would cause a lot of uproar, but he didn't expect that it would end up as a scene of cold violence.
In fact, it is quite normal to think about it carefully - who is Konoha White Fang? He killed at least 800 ninjas in the battlefield with his sword, and he was so powerful that the whole ninja world was intimidated. The civilians in Konoha would not dare to throw rotten vegetable leaves at his house.
There is a strong sense of boundary between civilians and ninjas in this world. Even the civilians living in the Konoha Village, who may not be too afraid of ninjas because they are used to seeing ninjas, do not dare to commit suicide to this extent.
What is manifested is that when White Fang of Konoha travels, many civilians avoid him as if he were a plague god. After seeing him walk away, they start talking about him behind them... Of course, with White Fang's ability, most of the discussions cannot escape his ears.
However, not everyone was talking behind his back. On this day, when Uchiha Feiyu passed by the door of the Hatake family, he heard bursts of noisy noises.
"I don't need anyone to save me. As a ninja, once you accept a mission, you must be prepared to sacrifice for it!"
"Because of my personal reasons, this mission failed and the village suffered heavy losses. It's my fault. I am willing to die to atone for it!"
When he arrived, he saw several ninjas from the security team grabbing an ordinary ninja and leaving, while a large group of civilians gathered around and talked about something.
Just by getting closer to the crowd, Uchiha Feiyu didn't even need to ask, he knew what had just happened from everyone's discussions.
The Chunin whose life was saved by White Fang publicly apologized and even wanted to commit suicide, but was stopped by the guards and the Anbu.
Touching his chin, Uchiha Feiyu felt that the mastermind behind the scenes was too rough, both obvious and deliberate.
It's a simple truth. If you want to die to atone for your sin, why don't you just commit suicide at home? Why run to the door of Hatake Sakumo's house? Isn't this obviously a way to make White Fang look bad?
It is only because people who have not experienced the Internet age are easier to deceive nowadays. If it were in the future, they would be exposed in minutes.
Although the means were crude, the intention was really cruel! He was condemned by thousands of people and was destroyed by the accumulated criticism... It was just a struggle for power and profit, was it necessary to do it in such an ugly way?
After this incident, the reputation that White Fang had gained through 20 years of life and death and bloody battles for Konoha was destroyed in an instant. It took Hatake Sakumo 20 years to establish the title of White Fang of Konoha, but it took the mastermind less than 20 days to destroy it.
The next morning, when Uchiha Feiyu passed by the Hatake residence again, he already felt the aura emanating from a powerful soul.
Uchiha Feiyu was delighted in his heart, but his face showed no expression. He slowly slowed down his pace and prepared to knock on the door of the Hatake family.
However, before he could knock on the door, he heard a shrill scream. After a moment of hesitation, Uchiha Feiyu immediately broke open the door and rushed in.
In the room, Kakashi, who was always known for his calmness and composure, now had his eyes wide open, and the mask covering his face was mostly torn off, revealing his horrified and panicked expression.
Opposite Kakashi, the Konoha White Fang, who was famous throughout the ninja world, was now kneeling on the ground, with blood all over the floor.
The White Fang dagger that had killed countless enemies was stabbed into his abdomen, creating a huge cut, and his internal organs flowed out. "Ahhhhhh! Father...Father, what happened to you?!"
Kakashi threw himself on Hatake Sakumo, and with some fear reached out to touch Hatake Sakumo's body, but found that even his father's corpse was cold, and he began to tremble all over.
Uchiha Feiyu who rushed in glanced at the White Fang Short Knife, and through the ability of summoning spirits and generals, he felt the powerful soul stored in the White Fang Short Knife, and his heart was immediately delighted.
With a slight move of his hand, the soul in the White Fang short sword was immediately summoned by Uchiha Feiyu. The souls in the Naruto world cannot be seen by the naked eye without chakra. In addition, Kakashi is now immersed in grief and panic, so he naturally did not notice Uchiha Feiyu's little movements.
Feeling the unprecedentedly powerful souls he had collected, Uchiha Feiyu would have laughed out loud in excitement if the current atmosphere had not been inappropriate.
But after all, he was friends with Kakashi, and he had a good impression of Konoha White Fang, so Uchiha Feiyu still forced himself to show a sad expression and reached out to pull up the dazed Kakashi.
November of the 39th year of Konoha
The hero of the Konoha War, the head of the Anbu, the famous White Fang Hatake Sakumo who was renowned in the ninja world, committed suicide, shocking the ninja world.
Some are happy, some are worried, some are sad, some are happy, and there are more surprises.
Of course, there were still many people who were happy. Upon hearing the news, most of the ninjas in the ninja world were overjoyed and clapped their hands in thanks.
White Fang traveled across the battlefields of World War II and made too many enemies. This guy was especially fast-moving ninja, very similar to Golden Flash. He was the best at bullying weak ninjas and had killed countless ninjas. Ordinary ninjas from other ninja villages hated and feared him.
This was a person who was like a big devil in the eyes of other ninja villages. His enemies didn't do anything to him, and the war didn't do anything to him. However, he died in a peaceful period and committed suicide for such a ridiculous reason. He didn't even have the qualification to be enshrined in the memorial tablet after his death because it was suicide. It was simply a joke.
To ninjas from other ninja villages, this is a comedic joke, but to Konoha, it is black humor.
Almost as soon as the news of White Fang's suicide spread, the Sand Village immediately sent its troops to the border of River Country, as if they were ready to start a battle right away.
At the same time, several other major ninja villages were also taking actions. At this point, the ninjas of Konoha could be sure that the Third Ninja World War was about to begin.
The suicide of Konoha White Fang not only caused Konoha to lose its sharpest knife among its high-end combat forces, but also dealt a huge blow to the morale of the entire Konoha.
White Fang went through life and death throughout his life, and made countless contributions to Konoha. Although the failure of this mission had a significant impact, it was just a minor flaw in a perfect jade.
As a result, such a brave and fearless powerful ninja with almost perfect personality was forced to death by public opinion in the village, which naturally made all the ninjas feel grieving for their loss.
Those jonin and higher-ranking chunins knew that this storm of public opinion was related to the Konoha high-ups, and their trust in them was greatly reduced. Some ordinary ninjas were frightened by White Fang's tragic end and could no longer trust their companions.
After all, even a figure like Konoha White Fang paid the price of his life to save his companions. In this case, who would be willing to trust his companions?
