I have finally understood the reason behind Sasuke's questions.

[iSpeak the Truth]

"What is the village?" What is a Shinobi?"

At first I was like, "why would Sasuke even want to know something like that, how does that relate to him and his agenda?"

Although I was just being naive.

I got the official translation of the chapter today through Viz Manga. I have finally understood the reason behind them!

You must be registered for see images

Wording is everything!

If you don't word something the proper way, which the free translations almost never do, the meaning might be lost completely!

 

[Kages]

Well good job

 

[Twin Steps]

Cool story bro :drive:

Tell it again

 

[YowYan]

I see. This translation makes things more clear

 

[Prime Rib]

Umm OK brah

 

[hamer34]

dub da hoop

 

[Steaktacular]

That is certainly clearer

 

[Parrish]

The Viz translations are second to none.

 

[avenged sevenfold]

this helps a bit i guess

 

[Moss]

Looks the same to me...

 

[iSpeak the Truth]

Looks the same to me...

You should read the free version again, you'll see the difference.

 

[AirWind]

Sasuke : What is shinobi? What is Village?
Hashirama : You wouldnt care anyway!
Sasuke : Damn u're right, prepare all to die!
orochimaru : Damn you sasuke, wasting my only Hashi's DNA........

 

[piercethejen]

Ah, okay yeah it makes more sense now. Welp, idk how Sasuke will still stay "bad" after this if Hashirama explains well.

 

[Stark]

Ahh I see

 

[Moss]

You should read the free version again, you'll see the difference.

I've always read the animea dubs, for a couple of years now, I guess I'm used to not knowing what they're saying half the time! xd

 

[Waltz]

Not bad. Personally, I think the reason is, He's finally getting in touch with his right mind...he's less clouded by hate and now has the ability to think on things he should've thought of years ago.

 

[Reynfall]

Oh now I get it.

Well that's interesting.

 

[Sherlock.]

Well I just read the free one too.... :ghehe: I still don't get it.... :ghehe: Will you please explain your point....????

In the free translation Sasuke simply asks "What is a Shinobi?"

In the official translation Sasuke asks "What is a Shinobi if he mindlessly follows his village to the death?"

This means we are back at the starting point.... This is just the other way to ask.... "Why is a Shinobi a tool for the village(I'm saying this cause of the mindless to death part of the translation)" I remember Team 7 facing "Shinobi is a tool" thing in the Zabuza and Haku Arc.... I guess Hashiramas Answer will not be will of fire but The Nindo way this time....
