Playing As Gojo Satoru in Naruto-Chapter 364

Sasori had a vague feeling, but he didn’t want to jump to conclusions before the time was right.

Hatake Satoru spoke vaguely, which meant he didn’t want to be clear.

Actually, sometimes Hatake Satoru’s words were quite obvious. If he didn’t want to say something, he would only answer what was asked.

He usually didn’t give away extra information.

But if it was something unimportant, he would explain it to people properly.

"Kakashi is so active, he doesn’t seem to have any problems. I saw him before too..."

"Is he not your blood relative? Is he really worth you helping so much?"

Sasori looked thoughtfully towards the door. There were no footsteps outside yet.

Hatake Satoru’s only blood relative was Hatake Kakashi. Even though it had been a few months, Kakashi had come with Naruto and Sakura when the Kazekage was kidnapped.

Although he didn’t really understand the person’s situation, just seeing his spirit with his students, he didn’t seem like someone who would need Hatake Satoru to go to so much trouble to save him.

Sasori’s feelings for his teammates were just okay. Since he was young, he valued his relationship with his parents more.

Or rather, because he lost his parents so early, he valued blood relationships more.

Even Chiyo was the same. Chiyo was able to research that forbidden art because it was about her own son.

Chiyo was able to research the forbidden art for Sasori. That was the best she could do.

And Hatake Satoru put so much effort into that person, with research labs, human experiments, and equipment development. No matter how you looked at it, he sacrificed no less effort than Chiyo did back then.

Especially since Hatake Satoru had that kind of personality and possessed almost a ceiling-level of magical abilities.

To be able to personally do this much was almost unheard of.

But would a person who isn’t a blood relative really have such an effect on someone?

Sasori didn’t really understand, after all, he was someone who could steel himself to turn himself into a puppet.

He could even give up his own body. He also abandoned his grandma Chiyo when he became a rogue ninja.

If he could give up even those things, let alone teammates or friends, Sasori simply didn’t care too much. He had formed that kind of worldview and habit.

He instinctively felt a bit confused by Hatake Satoru’s actions.

Konoha placed more emphasis on comrades and partners in the training of ninjas. But other than Konoha, even Kirigakure, which was controlled behind the scenes by Hatake Satoru, still believed that the mission was more important.

You can’t give up your comrades, and you can’t give up the mission. Just do your best when you take on the mission and minimize the loss of personnel.

At the same time, Kirigakure also had strict missions where comrades could be sacrificed, but the mission had to be completed.

These missions were clearly marked. If you were prepared, you could go ahead.

They knew the importance of this and the threat to their own lives when they carried out the mission.

Hatake Satoru knew that there would inevitably be situations where comrades had to be sacrificed. People would grow quickly in the face of life-and-death threats. Frankly, that was the essence of a ninja.

So he didn’t put comrades first. There would always be dangerous missions. Just think it over and do it.

Otherwise, how did Kirigakure get its reputation as an assassin’s hell, where you could buy absolutely safe protection as long as you paid?

"The situations are different. You can’t use your understanding to measure how I act, right?"

Hatake Satoru rested his cheek on his hand and slightly raised the corners of his lips into a smile.

"Your experiences shaped you, and my experiences will also lead to my choices and actions."

"Well, and, also, I really don’t like doing things myself, so I push them onto others."

"Anyway, I can definitely solve it easily. This is also to train everyone’s abilities."

Hatake Satoru said casually with a matter-of-fact expression.

If it were a normal person, they wouldn’t talk so matter-of-factly.

As expected, this guy knew everything as clearly as a mirror but just didn’t do decent human things, Sasori thought as he looked at him with a lump in his throat.

Hatake Satoru paused as if thinking about something.

If he solved everything, then there would be no need for anyone else.

That would be very boring, and things will never be finished. Conflicts between people will never end permanently.

Moreover, if he was too showy, it would definitely attract the attention of others.

Not to mention anything else, this group of fancy sealing techniques alone would give Hatake Satoru a headache.

Ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, or any other weird things didn’t really have any threatening power against Hatake Satoru.

But Hatake Satoru hated the feeling of unnecessary higher-ups’ arrangements and people constantly being on guard against him.

So he would let others take the lead and let others do the things that needed to be done.

Hatake Satoru just needed to play the role of a mastermind behind the scenes.

"That way, I’ll be very free."

"I’m free anyway, so it’s normal to do some research!"

"Not only can it save people, but it can also generate income. You can try to think of it as another way for me to make money."

After thinking for a while, Hatake Satoru had a look of found-the-answer on his face, and raised his eyebrows lightly.

As soon as Hatake Satoru finished speaking, footsteps sounded outside the door. Sasori seemed to want to ask something else, but he didn’t say it.

Hozuki Mangetsu ran back empty-handed. As soon as he opened the door, he saw both of their heads turning to look at him, staring blankly at him.

He stopped at the door and then walked in, looking at the people on both sides with a bit of confusion.

"What are those looks for... You didn’t really talk about some secret information behind my back, did you?"

"I feel like I’ve been left out."

Hozuki Mangetsu pouted slightly with a pitiful expression. Sasori tilted his head helplessly.

Compared to Hatake Satoru’s freedom and Sasori’s former rogue ninja status, Hozuki Mangetsu’s identity felt strangely out of place.

Although Hatake Satoru could be said to be the ultimate controller of Kirigakure, he knew too much, and many things were planned by him.

So it didn’t seem like a problem to say so, but Hozuki Mangetsu seemed to not be completely clear about anything.

In the end, it was because Hatake Satoru was creating an information gap in the middle, which made everyone feel a bit vague.

"What kind of looks are we giving? We’re just waiting for you."

Sasori said after a pause.
