Shinobi are tools.
We exist only to fight. Only to kill.
We cannot allow ourselves emotions. We cannot fear, for fear hinders our movement. We cannot love, for love hinders our judgment. We cannot enjoy, for enjoyment hinders our sense of duty.
We may not think if it is not about our mission.
We may not feel if it is not shame of failure.
Objective over life.
Life over friendship.
Listen to our superiors. Never question. Always obey.
We are only tools.
These were the things I was brought up believing.
These were the things Naruto showed me were wrong.
