Hokage’s Strongest Teacher

The bridge deck, which was originally completely scorched by the ultra-high-temperature flames of the Haoyan Purgatory, has been cleaned up briefly by the people in the town, but there are still many traces of fierce fighting on it, the pits and pits on the surface, and even a few can be seen. Stall the dark red Bloodline that has completely solidified.

If you don’t cut and Bai is naturally left, those mobs composed of bounty hunters and triads and societies have no idea where they are going. Although yesterday’s battle was fierce, the result was just a card. He died very miserably and aggrieved.

Originally, Quanmi didn't want to kill Cardo, but his life was not good, so he fell on the side of No More Slash, and Iruka broke out of the ice. The two coincidentally merged and became the direct cause of Cardo's death.

At the unfinished place at the end of the bridge that brings hope to this impoverished island nation, Iruka sits on the edge, with his hands on the ground, slightly raised his head, eyes slightly closed, feeling the comfort of the salty sea breeze blowing across his cheeks. , Enjoying this moment of tranquility.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from behind Iruka, and soon he heard Naruto's unique loud voice:

"Ms. Iruka, is there anything you want us to do?"

Hearing this, Iruka opened his eyes immediately, then stood up and said casually:

"It's just been a long time since I chatted with you, just chat casually."

Naruto and Sasuke had some bandages on their bodies, and they seemed to know that they were miserable yesterday. Even so, they gritted their teeth without hesitation when they heard Iruka called them to come here.

However, upon hearing Iruka's answer, Naruto's face showed a clear disappointment:

"What? It's just chatting. It's boring. I thought Mr. Iruka would teach us some great ninjutsu, such as that guy who was so handsome yesterday that he was so cool."

Hearing this, Iruka's mouth twitched.

Teach him to escape the blood and continue the boundary? Only Naruto who dared to think so had no idea about the limits of blood succession.

Not to mention this bloodline-determined ninjutsu. Iruka is difficult to teach even ordinary ninjutsu. After all, although he can use ninjutsu and is much more powerful than ordinary people, he himself has a little knowledge of ninjutsu. , Chakra's control ability is even worse than Naruto's. If he doesn't use the ability, his ninjutsu talent is just shit, teach you a fool!

"idiot."

"What are you talking about? Damn it, Sasuke, do you want to fight?"

Sasuke turned his head coldly, and didn't bother to care about Naruto.

You don’t have to think about it, you can guess that Iruka is looking for them and it’s impossible to just chat with them. After all, Iruka has been their class teacher for five years. Come up with some thought-provoking topics, and the previous chat content is all paving the way for that topic.

Yes, in the eyes of Sasuke, Iruka would never do meaningless things when approaching them.

"Fortunately, you can still be so leisurely." A meaningful smile suddenly spread across Iruka's face:

"Obviously I only experienced a fiasco here yesterday. I don't remember that I taught you to face failure with an indifferent attitude. Are you so degenerate that you dare not face things you don't want to face?"

Hearing this, Sasuke and Naruto looked dark at the same time.

"Of course, you can also use excuses such as your young age and too little actual combat experience to paralyze yourself. I will definitely not mind. It’s just a little teacher Chūnin, there is no qualification to care what you think."

Iruka's face was as relaxed and comfortable as ever, but Naruto and Sasuke's face suddenly changed when he said something.

Iruka is not qualified to care what they think? Do not make jokes! Konoha, including Hokage, can ignore anyone's opinion, but how can they not care about Iruka's opinion?

"Sorry, Mr. Iruka, I will definitely reflect on this failure."

"Ms. Iruka...I...I will definitely not let you down next time!"

Shrugging, Iruka's face was still very indifferent, without encouragement or comfort, and there was no fluctuation at all because of the words of the two.

It's like Naruto and Sasuke, the two most important students he cultivated, is no big deal for him even if he reaches the top of the Jōnin world.

"You have now graduated to become a ninja, and I have no obligation to improve your strength anymore. If you are still willing to listen to my nagging words..."

Before Iruka had finished speaking, Naruto hurriedly responded, as if he was afraid that Iruka would repent. Although Sasuke did not show any eagerness, he looked straight at Iruka, with a certain kind of hope in his black pupils. The color of wings.

"Well, since you are willing to listen, then I will say a few words, but before that, you will answer me one question first."

The two nodded at the same time and stared at Iruka, as if every word he said next must be remembered.

"What is your dream?"

Gently, Iruka asked the questions that the instructor Jōnin would ask when meeting the students for the first time.

Naruto didn't think so much, and directly said out loud what he had said to Kakashi:

"My dream is to become Hokage, and then let everyone in the village recognize my strength."

"Hokage..., sure enough..." Iruka had a clear look on his face, he groaned, then turned his head and asked Sasuke:

"So, Sasuke, what about you?"

Sasuke, who couldn't guess the meaning of Iruka's question at all, frowned and hesitated before saying:

"Kill that man, and... get the approval of Mr. Iruka."

Hearing this, Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then he did not hesitate to learn something like this: "Me too, I also want to get Iruka's approval!"

By the way, Naruto seems to have told me when he was a child that his dream is to be a Hokage and teach me a lesson...Sure enough, what a kid can't take it seriously...

As soon as this idea came to mind, Iruka quickly cut it off to avoid the topic from drifting as usual.

Iruka was not surprised at the previous sentence of Sasuke. After all, he was also there on the day Uchiha killed the clan, and he almost witnessed the last scene of the once brilliant clan withdrawing from the world of Ninja, but the sentence behind Sasuke was somewhat different. It was beyond his expectation.

Because of this, Iruka, who originally planned to use a knowing way to bring up the next topic, suddenly gave up the original idea and asked instead:

"So that's the case, then, which aspect do you want me to identify with? Strength? Qualifications?"

"all!"

Sasuke and Naruto said in unison, their intonations were surprisingly consistent.

"All? You two really dare to say it~ huh..." Iruka suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, and a meaningful smile appeared on the rather dark scar face. It seemed to be a joke, but what he said was nothing. Far less relaxed than his face:

"If it is your qualifications and strength, I admit that you are indeed excellent. Even if you are not strong enough now, I believe that with your strong will, sooner or later it will become an existence that countless people look up to; but that's it, I want to make me completely I agree with you, it’s never possible to identify with you by strength alone."

"Eh?!"

Naruto was a little dazed, but Sasuke at the side looked thoughtful, thinking carefully about the deep meaning of Iruka's words.

"For me, people without ideals will never be truly powerful, just like a force without norms is pure violence. Ideals are the foundation for supporting personal values. You are the students I value most, so I treat you The requirements of "will be much higher than others, so if you want to get my approval..."

After a pause, the relaxed look on Iruka's face gradually dissipated, replaced by a rare and solemn look:

"At least you have to have a concept that can support you to influence the entire world, otherwise, it will never reach my standards!"
