Kingdom - Vol. 70 Ch. 760 - The Constant

[JonRa]

Yep, yep, Man's true nature is dumb. Shin ended the debate right there.

Huh, I didn't think Shin would win with a Talk-no-Jutsu.

 

[Grimmycoffee]

nah. most of us is corrupted already.

if all of us got power, most probably we will be power drunk.
heck, maybe after you become rich, reading manga won't be on the top of your 'hoe to relax' list?

Then most of us aren't corrupted?

I don't know if most will get power drunk or not, but if you think being rich is the main cause, then I don't think it can be the majority since "the rich" is almost always a minority as far as I know.

Kan Ki didn't deserve to be as big as Ouki there

Kan Ki didn't deserve to be as big as Ouki there

To be fair, the real Kanki (Qin general Huan Yi) was a far more illustrious commander than the real Ouki (Qin general Wang Yi). In real history Kanki achieved a higher rank, and Wang Yi was actually just a single mention in the history books noting he existed.

Shin's flame theory also ties into what he believes makes Great Generals so powerful on the battlefield. Their blows carry the weight of accumulated wills. This is what allowed him to best Houken.

So, my take from this chapter is people aren't inherently good or evil. They are inherently dumb. That actually makes total sense.

 

[BambuszManus]

Usually philosophical concepts and conversations fall a little flat in manga because they boil down to "fight for the sake of your friends!!" Or some trite Naruto bullshit.

That said I appreciate them attempting to tackle it from a state-building standpoint. I don't think the concept of inherent good or inherent evil is particularly interesting, as say; how should a king rule? But I do like that Shin had an actual argument based on evidence and criteria.

Because you are reading too much shounens. Read seinens, like this manga. There so many good phylosophical manga that people don't notice because the majority is drool over the newest, most hyped shounens or other (sometimes) overrated manga.

 

[Blackninj]

Holy crap the fire of life and will all add up when you think about how he was able to defeat houken. I thought it was just wishy washy friendship is magic thing. Kingdom is so deep.

Bullshit-talk-no-jutsu critical hit.
