A ninja couldn't be different couldn't be strong any other way then physically or strategically or they were weak.
A ninja in other's eyes was strong as long as they could beat them and weak the moment the other won.
A ninja had to be the strongest they could be, becoming stronger the only important goal.
A ninja couldn't show emotion for it made them weak yet pride and anger are emotions that they seem to overlook as emotions.
A ninja knew that they must not betray that blood is thicker then water yet in a clan the "more important ones" had the power to kill their own blood.
A ninja must not disobey their leaders, no task too little no risk too big, to die on duty was the greatest honor.
After all ninjas are weapons and nothing more. They live to protect and when they themselves become the greatest danger to destroy.
Why was she, Sakura, who claimed to be a ninja not follow these rules set? Why must she not use her greatest tool, intelligence any other way then to figure out how to kill and defeat others? Why should she be different then those closest to her who thought only of becoming stronger because in this world this was the only way to become acknowledged. Naruto, who trained to become the strongest so others would not look down on him, Lee who trained till he almost died for the almost same exact reason? Sasuke the one she loved but instead made a mockery of her love for the fact that he needed more then anything to kill the one that was his blood because that one had also killed his blood? Hinata was looked down upon by her clan because she was too weak. Others who she did not know personally all had the same goal but reworded. To become stronger. Now even she was living by the same goal. This truly is the way of the ninja.
