[Blake might have started to slow down, but the last swing was caught instead of deflected, Minato's hand closing in firmly over the other man's fist, fingers tightening to punctuate his words and ensure Blake would stay put to listen to them.
His patience was being severely tested, and if pushed much further he had no qualms over breaking Blake's hand or wrist. Or both.]
Two of my students proudly gave their lives to defend each other, and the village. I gave my life to protect them all, leaving me unable to watch my own son grow up. But I'd do it again a hundred times over if it meant keeping them safe.
I won't have those sacrifices belittled because you think you have the right to tell me what I'm supposed to do.
