<strong>Day 5</strong><br/><br/>Jin-Ryu listened Ruka's argument and he replied; "Yeah, we are fortunate that we got seventh hokage and his influence carries great deal of weight to present peaceful climate. However he nor Uchicha are immortal unless they develop jutsu to become one. Eventually they die old age and generation shift and changes, there will be new hokage and time goes on forward. Hundred, two hundred. What can tell what awaits in our future? New threats may emerge after Hokage and Sansuke Uchicha are both dead and thus no longer able meet and face them, so it's then future generation responsebillity to face those threats and be prepared for it. Neglecting martial arts and offensive jutsu studies can result in that future generation is not prepared and thus result lots of lost lives and destruction, which could had been avoided if shinobi had continued on trained to fight other shinobi and thus be prepared to fight to preserve the peace which for seventh hokage so much fought for."<br/><br/>Jin-Ryu sighs and adds; "Also it's true that many shinobi of my generation think that having a weapon or offensive jutsu means it<em>must be used</em>. But offensive jutsu is a tool and as any tool it can be abused and used either wrong way or simply wrong situations. Same it's probably in medical jutsu; it can save lives but also to kill when apply said knowlegde just different manner and purpose.<br/><br/>Reason why I had pondered so much on purpose of shinobi is perhaps because I am outsider, born outside five villages and being first shinobi in my family line. I had to think darn lot before I decided to accept offer to join Hidden Cloud through vouch done by my mentor. I had choice to live outside the shinobi world but decided embrace it as matter of choice than just being born into it like most shinobi are."
