...They are not of the Iga clan. I have no interest in them or 'educating' them as a shinobi.

You are an idiot.

speaking of crossovers!

Does it not flatter you that someone seeks to receive your wisdom, Lord Hanzo?

xD

[has_no_form]

There is no wisdom to be had, Nobuchika. The path of the ninja is not good or evil, wise or foolish. It simply is.

[the_magikarp_link]

Ah! I see. I wouldn't know, of course - in my clan, we like to do things the simple, direct way. Though that doesn't mean I don't admire you, too, Lord Hanzo.

That said... if I may inquire, where are your Pokémon?

[has_no_form]

[Blink blink.]

My... what?

[the_magikarp_link]

Ah, I see... as I feared. In the world you are from, you don't have Pokémon to assist you and ensure that battles are conducted without bloodshed...

Where I am from, you show a marked affinity for ghostly creatures.

[Hanzo takes out his kusuriagama and holds it in front of him.]

This is my only partner. I do not know what these 'Pokemon' are, or what kind I show an affinity to. However, I doubt I would advocate the use of such creatures in battle.

A ninja cannot afford such distractions.

[the_magikarp_link]

That is a magnificent weapon! And at the same time... the fact that it's your only option to defend yourself saddens me, Lord Hanzo.

And yet, you're just like the Lord Hanzo from my world! I feel that this matter requires investigation, if I am to progress on my path to wisdom.

[has_no_form]

[Hanzo closes his eyes and shakes his head a bit.]

The way of the ninja is rife with pain and sacrifice. There is no wisdom there. If you walk the path of wisdom, then you must avoid the path of the ninja at all costs.

We are beings of shadow. Not of the world, not apart from it. We exist in between. Wise men lead. Ninja strike from the shadows of wise men.

[the_magikarp_link]

Ah... that is a little scary. But I think I want to be a wise man regardless, if you don't mind!

It's exactly as I thought, though! You would get along with Ghost-type Pokémon. You should try befriending a Haunter, or a Spiritomb. You'd make great partners. Mine are Gyarados, Magikarp and Panpour, for the record.
