Justice is coming to all of us. No matter what the fuck we do.
Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!
You and I seek the same thing. We are trying to establish the peace that Jiraiya Sensei so desired. You and I are not different at all. We each act according to our own sense justice. The justice I delivered to the Leaf Village is no different from what you are trying to do to me. The pain of losing something dear to you is the same. And both of us know that pain all too well. You have your justice, and I have mine. We are both ordinary men, driven to seek vengeance under the banner of justice. However, if there is justice in vengeance, then justice will only breed more vengeance. And trigger a cycle of hatred. We are living in the middle of such a phenomenom right now. We know what the past has been and we can predict what the future will be. That is history as we know it. So we cannot help but believe that human beings are incapable of understanding each other. The world of the ninja is ruled by hatred.
Episode 165
In the end, “justice” is just an official line taken by those in power to serve their own ends. No one’s looking out for others. If you’re careless, you’ll be robbed.
Your justice may be completely different from someone else’s. You are completely different people after all.
— You understand. On some level you understand that you're an evil man.
— I'll leave the judgments to the gods.
— Well, that is convenient for you.
