Ninja World: I'm really a support-type ninja

So, after weighing the pros and cons of Orochimaru's research, the choice he should make is already obvious.

Although there were certain risks, fortunately, Danzo Shimura stepped forward to take the blame, so Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally let it go. As long as no major trouble was caused, he would pretend that Orochimaru was unaware of the human experiments.

But what if Sakumo Hatake had evidence provided by Orochimaru, or evidence that Sakumo Hatake himself had collected?

This is a huge problem!

Given Sakumo Hatake's willingness to abandon his mission to rescue his teammates, he would never tolerate such a thing. His only option would be to expose the evidence to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

In that case, given Hiruzen Sarutobi's own political career, Danzo Shimura's life and fortune, and Orochimaru, a potential candidate to become the next Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi's choice is already clear.

The Hatake family is small in number and weak in power, and their talented successors have not yet fully matured...

Such a Hatake family could not possibly withstand the combined suppression of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura. Therefore, in order to protect his family and his descendants, Sakumo Hatake made the most humiliating choice: suicide.

Thinking of this, Akira Hatake trembled all over, and an unnamed fire shot from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head!

Why!

Just because they infringe upon the interests of some people, should those who uphold conscience and morality be slandered and suppressed, even threatened with the lives of their families and descendants?

Just because he, Hiruzen Sarutobi, has a powerful clan backing him, just because he, Hiruzen Sarutobi, is the Hokage of Konoha.

Akira Hatake also acknowledged that the world is not just black and white; gray is equally prevalent.

If this happened to someone else, Akira Hatake would help if he could, but if he couldn't, he would only care about his own safety and act as a deaf-mute.

There's nothing seriously wrong with that. After all, Akira Hatake had already experienced the harsh realities of society in his previous life, so he's not lacking in any of the necessary awareness.

With my meager arms and legs, how can I possibly compete with some powerful forces in the underworld, the legitimate world, and the gray market?

But things are different now. It is Hatake Akira himself, Hatake Sakumo, Kakashi, and the entire Hatake family who are threatened. If they continue to let things go unchecked, then Hatake Akira might as well travel through time again as soon as possible.

“Father, whether Orochimaru meant well or ill, from the moment you took these documents, you have already entered a dead end.”

Hearing what Akira Hatake said, Sakumo Hatake didn't refute it at all, and the sorrow on his face became even more pronounced.

Although he knew that his actions had brought a huge crisis to the Hatake family, if he were given another chance to choose, he would still accept the evidence of Orochimaru's crimes.

Not for any other reason than for the innocent souls who died unjustly within Konoha!

If they are members of an opposing force, Hatake Sakumo will not care at all, and may even be more ruthless than Orochimaru.

After all, the title of Konoha's White Fang was earned by Sakumo Hatake from the battlefield.

To the enemy, Sakumo Hatake was definitely not a good person, but to his own people, his actions were absolutely impeccable.

Such a pure ninja, even if he knows that there is a pit or hell ahead, he will jump in without hesitation!

"I know, but if I don't do it, who will?" Hatake Sakumo smiled bitterly, but the determination on his face did not waver in the slightest.

"My teacher, Minato Namikaze!"

Akira Hatake is now out of options and can only place his hopes on Minato Namikaze.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Sakumo Hatake, nor did he insist on following the Naruto world timeline as he remembered it. Rather, it was because, apart from Minato Namikaze, no one could resolve the current predicament of the Hatake clan and Konoha.

"Minato... is still a bit immature, and as for his personality..."

“If our teacher has the backing of the Hatake family and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina, then his potential is limitless!” Hatake Akira clenched his fist. “Father, you can now secretly contact our teacher.”

“But if that’s the case…” Sakumo Hatake still hesitated, “Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura’s evil deeds will only escalate to who knows how far they will go in the future.”

"That's true, but you can't do anything about it on your own right now. On the contrary, you'll risk your life and the future of the Hatake family."

Akira Hatake earnestly advised, "If Hiruzen Sarutobi finds out about this, he will definitely target you, and then your chance to retire will come."

“From the moment I received this evidence, there was no turning back.” Sakumo Hatake lowered his head. “I will end this internal turmoil in my own way.”

"No, there's a chance!" Akira Hatake's eyes shone with an alarming light. "Do you remember the birthday present I gave you?"

You mean this short-sleeved shirt?

Sakumo Hatake pointed to the "resurrection armor" he was wearing close to his body, his expression somewhat subtle. He really couldn't figure out what Hatake was up to.

"Yes, it's actually a divine artifact, an artifact that can resurrect people after they die!"

Akira Hatake gave a brief explanation, then handed over the ninja sword that Sakumo Hatake had given him. "Father, demonstrate your newly created Bloodstained Elimination Sword Technique. It would be best if some unexpected events occurred."

"what do you mean……"

Sakumo Hatake was a little confused, but he quickly realized what was happening and his fingers gripped the corner of the "Resurrection Armor" tighter and tighter.

“I understand. Then watch carefully and learn well. This may be my last brilliant performance.”

"Brother! What kind of riddles are you and Father playing?!" Kakashi reached out to stop Sakumo Hatake, shouting with tears in his eyes, "Father's swordsmanship is only half complete! Without a proper ninja sword, it will cost Father his life!"

"This is exactly the result I wanted!"

Akira Hatake swept Kakashi aside, "This is the best reason for Father to withdraw from the political vortex, bar none!"

"Can……"

"Trust me, and trust Father too. Doing this might have a beneficial impact on Father, and could even become an opportunity for the Hatake clan to rise again!"

"Alright, I believe in Ming."

Sakumo Hatake smiled, took his ninja sword and walked into the courtyard of the Hatake residence. In the blink of an eye, his energy and spirit reached their peak, and the aura of a Kage-level figure emanated from his body.

A scene of teaching with lives at stake is about to unfold.

Chapter 46: A Narrow Escape

The power born from the ultimate transformation of two chakra natures is called bloodline limit.

Not only can they use ninjutsu independent of the five chakra natures, but they can also benefit future generations.

Once the bloodline limit is established, a brand new bloodline limit family will stand tall in the ninja world after several generations.

So, can the bloodline elimination derived from the extremes of the three chakra nature transformations be inherited by offspring?

The answer is obvious; it's simply impossible.

As for why it's impossible, it's naturally because the Blood Elimination is too domineering. Whether it's flesh or matter, as long as it comes into contact with this power, it will be broken down into its most primitive molecular state.

How can the human body, made of flesh and blood, withstand this force and imprint it in its blood to pass on to future generations?

Therefore, the first Second Tsuchikage to use Bloodstained Elimination only dared to store the three nature transformations of chakra to their extremes separately in his body, and then combine them into Bloodstained Elimination's "Dust Release" when needed.

This also makes Bloodline Elimination something like a forbidden technique, and it doesn't belong to the category of bloodlines.

So far, the only person in the ninja world who can use Dust Release is Onoki.

What Sakumo Hatake is doing now is to transform the Blood Elimination technique, which is similar to a forbidden art, into bloodline power while practicing and teaching the Blood Elimination sword technique.

Without the resurrection item, Sakumo Hatake would have undoubtedly died, returning to dust without leaving a trace of his ashes.

"Father!!!"

Kakashi's eyes widened, tears blurring his vision. Hatake Sakumo had already demonstrated all the sword techniques and personally demonstrated the nature transformations of lightning, wind, and water chakra.

Furthermore, he demonstrated the elimination of bloodstains formed by the extreme transformations of the three chakra natures in their entirety.

However, due to the obstructed chakra flow of the ninja sword, the blood-staining power formed by the three types of chakra that escaped destroyed the ninja sword and even injured Sakumo Hatake himself.

Sakumo Hatake's hands have now mysteriously disappeared. Although the edges of the wounds are jagged, they are very smooth, as if they were born that way.

"Don't worry, I feel great now." Sakumo Hatake glanced at Kakashi, then looked at Akira. "I'm most worried about you because you're the laziest. Did you see my demonstration clearly just now?"

"I saw it clearly and remembered it!" Akira Hatake's nose tingled, and his eyes reddened as he couldn't help but shed tears.

"That's good, then I'll begin."

Sakumo Hatake smiled faintly, then focused on the three chakra natures that were separate and did not interfere with each other within his body, as he prepared to fuse them.

Light!

glare!

A dazzling light!

Since one can integrate the power of bloodshed into swordsmanship, it is not difficult to disregard life and death, integrate this power into oneself, or even imprint it into one's genes.

However, the power of Bloodline Elimination far surpasses that of Bloodline Limit, and the damage it causes to the body is exactly the same as the consequences of being hit head-on by Dust Release!

If even a bloodline limit can cause blood disease, then the damage caused by blood elimination dissolving into itself would be directly increased by tens of thousands of times.

Sakumo Hatake's body began to disintegrate, gradually crumbling from the inside out, the power eliminated by the blood gradually breaking down into molecules...

First came the bone marrow, bones, flesh, and fascia. Finally, Hatake Sakumo completed the process of eliminating and integrating the bloodstains into himself, and his entire body almost became a transparent humanoid silhouette emitting white light.

"If it's really as you say, then I think... the future of the Hatake clan will be one of bloodline power that will dominate the entire ninja world!"

As Hatake Sakumo finished his last boastful words, a burst of white light formed from a pool of blood exploded, and he completely vanished into the world, as if he had never existed.

If one had to find evidence that Sakumo Hatake had ever existed, then a piece of gold-patterned fabric slowly falling from mid-air would be the only proof.

That was a scrap of the manifested "resurrection armor," and under the interference of the bloodline elimination force, only this small piece remained...

boom!

A powerful fist slammed into Akira Hatake's face. Kakashi, who had never laid a hand on Akira Hatake before, was now like a raging little lion, baring his teeth and looking fierce.

"Akira Hatake! If Father cannot be brought back to life, I will never acknowledge you as my brother again, nor will I recognize you as a member of the Hatake family!!!"

After delivering the punch, Kakashi seemed to have all his strength drained away. He collapsed to his knees where Sakumo Hatake had just died, head bowed, tears streaming down his face, his shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

"Father will be resurrected..."

Now, Akira Hatake, who had been knocked to the ground, was no longer as assertive as before; all he felt was self-reproach and guilt.

If the resurrection armor doesn't work, he'll become the murderer who killed Sakumo Hatake, and he'll never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

hum...

Three seconds had passed when the unique sound effect of the resurrection armor being activated rang out.

Kakashi, who had been bowing his head and weeping, suddenly looked up. Hatake Akira's dimmed eyes lit up again, and the piece of resurrection armor fabric that had fallen to the ground was now shimmering with a dark golden light.

At the same time, under the outline of dark golden light, Hatake Sakumo's phantom gradually solidified, with fascia, flesh, and bones constantly filling the outline of the phantom.

hum...

With the same sound effect again, Sakumo Hatake's body was reassembled in less than two seconds, and the naked Sakumo Hatake opened his eyes.

At the same time, the fragments of the resurrection armor fabric, radiating a dark golden light, also transformed back into the shape of the resurrection armor at the same speed, and reappeared on Hatake Sakumo's body.
