Nindō

is a personal rule that each shinobi lives by. It is their way of ninja life, their motto or "dream". A ninja's nindō can be anything, no matter how immoral their personal point of view is. Most often Naruto Uzumaki proclaims his ninja way, to be: "I'm not gonna run away and I never go back on my word, that is my nindō! My ninja way!" According to Madara Uchiha, the nindō of the Uchiha clan is to exact revenge against their hated enemies. Similarly, Hashirama Senju created what is known as the Will of Fire in Konohagakure, which can be said to be the universal ninja way of all the shinobi of this village.
