Chapter 23 What is a villain?

Chapter 23 What is a villain?

 A certain valley in the Land of Frost.

 Hinata Yuto is wearing a bamboo hat and walking in the wind and snow.

  The killing three hours ago did not cause much fluctuation in his state of mind - it was too thoroughly crushed, and the people killed were bandits who regarded human life as nothing, so he felt no pressure at all while killing it.

Hinata Yuuto is not a pervert who likes killing people and gouging out his eyes, nor is he a messenger of justice who punishes evil and promotes good. He has only one purpose in killing those bandits - to obtain a huge amount of money!

The world of Naruto has a long history and a perfect and self-consistent system. Although there are supernatural powers such as chakra, and top experts can move mountains and reclaim seas, everyone, including those strong, are still in the same world and the same society. .

Since we live in society, we will naturally have bonds with others, such as human relationships, kindness, morals, dreams...

 In the ninja world, money is still very important, even particularly important!

Many years later, even if they are as powerful as "Akatsuki", they can't completely quit their jobs and just work on things. They also need hard-working and uncomplaining villains like Kakuzu to make money. If nothing else, if the Akatsuki organization is short of money, they can't afford it. That wind-stirring fire cloud robe.

 Hyuga Yuuto also needs money, of course.

The bandit is very good at collecting money. If all the gains from this siege, including jewelry and silverware, were converted into money, he would be equivalent to being paid for ten A-level missions!

 This is a big number, enough to be used as start-up capital for Hyuga Yuto.

 The Third Ninja War is less than half a year away, and he must be prepared.

Hyuga Yuuto ran towards his destination in the wind and snow. The soles of his feet stepped on the snow, leaving only a shallow dent. In an instant, it was covered by falling snow, and no trace could be seen.

Along the way, although he did not pay special attention, the white eyes that were activated every once in a while to ensure safety still allowed him to see countless corpses buried under the snow.

 Among them, many are adults holding children.

 If there is a heaven, presumably if you die in this posture, the child will find his parents soon...if there is a heaven.

Hinata Yuuto sighed in his heart. He couldn't tell what he was feeling. When Tsunade said goodbye to him a few days ago, his mood was almost the same as now.

Hinata Yuto is very clear. This probably proves that he still has a clear conscience, knows compassion and gratitude, and is not considered an animal. If placed in other circumstances, he could even be called a "good person".

 However, even if Hinata Yuuto still has emotions and bottom lines as a human being, he also knows what his role is in this world.

 —Villain!

 The definite villain!

 Perhaps it is the small villain who collapsed in the middle, or it may be the big BOSS who survived to the end. No matter what the situation is, Hyuga Yuuto is the villain.

 What is a villain?

 Character, moral level, strength, what has been done...all of these are not enough to judge whether a person is a villain.

 There is always only one criterion for becoming a villain—whether you oppose the protagonist!

The person who stands opposite the protagonist is the villain.

Will Hinata Yuuto stand on the opposite side of Uzumaki Naruto?

Since he was carved as a caged bird at the age of three, Hyuga Yuuto can answer with certainty:

 Yes, I will definitely be Naruto’s enemy in the future, and there will be no room for mediation.

Hinata is an enemy, so Konoha is an enemy, so Naruto is also an enemy. This is a very simple logical chain.

 In fact, in the first few years, Hinata Yuuto was somewhat resistant to becoming a villain. Standing on the opposite side of the protagonist is too much pressure. Hinata Yuto bets that if the villains in literary works knew from the beginning that their opponent was the world's beloved protagonist, most of them would lose the will to fight.

Moreover, Hinata Yuuto faces greater psychological pressure. As a time traveler, he still has a certain bottom line deep in his heart. He may be able to do things that are too animalistic, but he will not be too comfortable doing it.

To be fair, Naruto Uzumaki, the protagonist of this world, is a good person from every angle.

 Even if he is arrogant, he is still a good person.

 It is actually quite uncomfortable to go against good people.

 However, today, after killing all the bandits, Hinata Yuuto stepped on the snow and looked at the countless bones buried in the ground, and his mood slowly calmed down.

 He ​​suddenly felt that even if the good man Uzumaki Naruto became the Hokage and became the savior, the world would not change... at least, it would not become significantly better.

Hyuga Neji is dead, and the caged bird is still carved on the head of the branch family; the five major ninja villages still exist in the world, and the living environment of those small countries has never been guaranteed; the nine tailed beasts are still scattered everywhere, and it is difficult to say that they have been freed .

 The six-level Uzumaki Naruto, during those years when he was invincible in the world, pulled the equally invincible Uchiha Sasuke to maintain the order of the old world.

 The five major countries coexist peacefully, the ninjas put aside their hatred, and the civilians live and work in peace and contentment... Under the golden chakra of Naruto Uzumaki, there is of course no contradiction, nor does it dare to exist.

 Has the world changed? changed.

 Has the world not changed? Never changed.

If you stretch the time to the entire history, in a sense, Uzumaki Naruto has done almost nothing.

As he was on his way, Hinata Yuuto suddenly remembered the words of a writer he liked very much in his previous life:

“Almost all evil villains in fantasy novels are charismatic and radical revolutionaries who dare to imagine a completely different world order and can’t wait to detonate the seeds of change before the conditions are ripe.”

“On the contrary, all great, bright and correct heroes are defenders of mainstream ideologies. They have conservative views and lack creativity. They have almost no other pursuits except fighting monsters and going home to hug girls.”

 While running, Hinata Yuuto let go of his heavy burden.

The villain is just a villain. Fighting against the Son of Prophecy sounds pretty cool...

 The young man chuckled suddenly.

Hinata Yuuto's thoughts were swirling, and before he knew it, he had arrived at his destination—an abandoned temple.

He was already very familiar with this kind of place. He used a transformation technique to change his body shape into that of an adult. He put on his bamboo hat again, put on a loose robe, and walked in slowly.

With a familiarity, he stopped by the third stone pillar from the right of the door, made a few seals, and pressed it with chakra.

The secret passage appeared, and Hinata Yuto walked down the bluestone-carved steps. Under the illumination of the oil lamp embedded in the rock wall, he entered a wide underground stone chamber.

“Welcome to the Frost Country Branch of the Money Exchange, sir.” In the stone room, a woman wearing a rat-face mask said softly:

 “Please state your name.”

Hinata Yuuto’s mouth hidden under the bamboo hat raised slightly, and he said the fake name full of memories that he had chosen to facilitate his activities in the dark world:

 “Kudo Shinichi.”
