Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I see, thank you Sensei,"

He still had other questions but he decided that he would question his mother and father later, both being more knowledgeable over the Rice Countries concealed nature. The news that they would one day reveal their secret on the countries status as a village was only slightly alarming, having once heard the same words from his father. Sensei's words were a full confirmation, however and served to iron his resolve on keeping his personal and professional life seperated despite his duties to the village. If his family knew he preferred to have more of a stable, less life-threatening occupation he wondered exactly how they would respond. He entertained the idea of owning a bookstore or a small clinic while engaging in the more subtle aspects of the shinobi life.

Looking at Tenza for a few seconds, Yasashii suddenly turned, walking around the teacher's desk and reaching under it, pulling out a kunai and holding it up for all to see. "Killing is a thing you will all have to get used to. Some sooner than later. Before I was five, I had seen thousands of men die. War is an ugly thing, and leaves only victims." He sighed, setting the kunai down on the desktop, and looking over the class. "But with that aside, I said nothing about killing anyone. If you ignore an order given to you, you will find death. Be it the death of your friends, your client, or yourself. There are many things that can go wrong in this world, and our superiors give us orders to prevent as much from going wrong as possible. Follow your orders as closely as possible, and you should be safe. Deviate from those orders, and you will likely find death, be it by the enemy, or by your allies who you betrayed by breaking those orders."

Looking over to Kamoku again as the boy asked another question, Yasashii smiled, visibly despite the mask. "But we are already learning. Not all things are jutsu and techniques. Knowledge itself is quite often the most important thing a shinobi can bear. It would be best you all remember that. Walk into a situation without knowledge, and you will put yourself in danger. Walk in with knowledge, and nothing can surprise you."

Looking at the kunai, the boy closed his fist. " Not necessarily, if played right, war can make a nation powerful and wealthy. It's all just a gamble, a game, it all comes down to how you move your ninja, but that's just my opinion sensei." The boy said looking at the teacher. " Sensei; if you don't mind me asking, seeing as every time I ask I never get an answer, what was the reason for this war?" He asked the teacher, for some reason, every time he asked Yasa, he would just be ignored.

Now, for the other part of the man's answer to his question, with yet another opinion. " Just like before, you have to know when breaking the rules of the mission are the only way to complete it. The life of your allies goes before the mission, and like a great man once said, those that break the rules are scums, but, those that leave their allies behind are even bigger scum. Or something along those lines, if they are really you're allies, they would have no reason to do this, but, a war veteran like yourself might say otherwise." Taking in a breath after he spoke the last words, he thought over what the teacher said last, that was something that caught his fancy, since running head on into a battle is pretty much suicide.

"In a war," Yasashii began, walking around the desk once more to stand in front of his class. "You would say there is a winner, and a loser, correct?" He asked, glancing between each of the students, but without giving them a chance to respond, he continued. "This is false. Everyone involved in the war loses. They may not lose the war, but they lose something. Friends, family, soldiers, money, investment, land, goods. These are all things that can be lost in a war, by either side. The supposed winner is merely the one who loses less. And even that is not necessarily true. There have been wars where a small nation fought against several larger nations, and nearly won, before it was pushed back in the end. They lost the war, yet they did not lose as many people or goods as the other nations, simply because they had less to start with. The only true victor in war, is the one who does not fight. It should never be treated as a game." Yasashii stood back for a moment to let that sink in, watching the student's faces closely to see their reactions.

"That is not to say however, that war does not have it's place. Merely that it is not something to be flaunted or desired. War is a last resort, which is why our highest priority is to preserve the security and peace of our nation. Orders are given for that purpose. To guide you along the path that will protect yourself, your mission, and your home. The commanding officer on any mission is the highest authority. And if he says to leave your ally behind, harsh as that may be, you must continue. That is unlikely to happen however, as a single captured ninja could reveal our village to the outside world, and endanger us all." Leaning back against his desk, Yasashii gazed over the class for a few seconds. "But you are merely children. You don't understand, nor have the patience for such things. I assure you though, by the time you have grown into a true member of this village, you will have learned patience. For our first practical lesson, I want each of you to show me your use of the henge no jutsu. You have all learned it, so let's see you use it. Transform into someone else in the room, and pretend to be them for a short time. This is something you will all likely need to do in the future on your various missions."

Kamoku nodded in agreement with what was said, finding most of it to be the same as his own thoughts. Some of it however he had problems with, but nothing to the point that it would be a large problem.

Kamoku stood and popped his neck, throwing his head back so that his hood came completely off of his head and showed his blindingly white hair. " Henge no jutsu. " Kamoku said, pulling his hands quickly infront of him and preforming dozens of handsigns, vanishing in a poof of smoke. When the smoke cleared in the place where Kamoku had been standing stood a seemingly perftect copy of Yasashii. He sighed and shook his head. " Sorry, but since I can only guess what you look like under the mask, I kept my own features. " Kamoku said, taking the mask off and revealing his scar. Kamoku sighed and dismissed the jutsu, sighing and sitting back down, reaching back and putting his hood back up. His eyes had still been cevoered, as well as most of his face above and around his nose. That was so no one could easily distinguish his facial features. It was a good strategy, but made him noticable for these precautions.

Kamoku looked at the person on the ground and sighed. The chance of a person getting that far into Otogakure's heart and not being taken care of was very unlikely. Not to mention the fact that after Kamoku's recent visit, He thought there were atleast one or two chunnin ranked ninja alone in the bar, both of which were well known by some of the patrons. " Coward, not even sending a lowly clone to tell us and staying there to fight. " Kamoku said shaking his head sighing. " And I thought Otogakure was known for it's intelligence. " Kamoku said sighing. Really the intelligence he was refering to was quite different, but he still had assumed that the village was teaching their students some sort of tactical know how for battle. " Even if you are an academy student unless you are a support ninja who specializes in a specific team arrangment, then you should have fought. And if you are a team specialist, then you should have had your team with you, or you should broaden your abilities. " Kamoku said scoffing at the person on the ground who appeared to be out cold.
