This is actually the main question of the whole series , either will it go further or not, Kishi is trying , by defining a shinobi , to define What is a Human being ?
so this is basically a theory abt hashi's possible answer also i will go through kishi's point of view abt being a human U_U
I- Hashirama's answer ... just now ??
all along the series kishi was giving hints abt this main question : what is the purpose of all this , what is the goal or the meaning of these series anyway
well if you look up to the characters traits and characteristics : we will find that _obviously_ their goals and aims and beliefs were different , but what's astonishing is
All characters have fans , thus they were made Heroes
what does this mean ? then were is the villain ? where is the "Bad guy" we used to have in every story ?
well i guess many of us found out that : there is no villain in the series , haters aside , check every character : Each one has a role , a reason for existing , a meaning for his life, assuming his responsibilities , not only towards his " people" if we might call them so , but most importantly , towards himself ! That's what being a Shinobi really is abt IMO , so hashirama's possible answer is :
Shinobi means to keep holding on to one's true value , to create a meaning to one's own existance
II- Shinobi - Human
well this part is a little different , in which um just wondering what if kishi is actually making a parallel story line of humanity , each one fighting for his own ideology and belief , which is taking place in our real world
~ " Shadows exist because light do , the selfish desire to maintain peace creates war , hatred was also born to protect love " ~
this phrase describes the actual world of ours , so i guess kishi is not like whining abt wars and mourning abt catastrophes, he is rather trying to find an answer which is : _in my theory ofc_ that every one must assume his responsibilities :
-some like the character itachi : will find that self sacrifice is the way to make a perfect world,
-some others like naruto will think that determination is their only way out of this absurd life ,
-others like oro , will think that going to the limits of the concrete perfection will make everything better ,
-Obito and Madara represent the dreamers of our societies who are searching the utopia were True , individual perfection exists and so on ....
All in all : " it won't matter what we_humans_ decide to do from now on" , because in the end, whatever we decide to do, we will remain who we really are : Human beings , that's what makes us perfect.
