Naruto, be my son.

The billowing flames were like a wave of fire.

This made Iruka's expression change.

"What an amazing fire escape ninjutsu. Sasuke is only seven years old, right? Is this... the specialty of the Uchiha clan? He is such a student who likes to mess around!"

"Fire Release·Flowing Fire Technique!!!"

This is the ninjutsu that Iruka used to offset the "Water Wave" of the phosphorus. He once again used the same ninjutsu to fight against the Uchiha clan's powerful fire ball.

The Go Fireball Jutsu is a huge fireball that pours out.

The art of flowing fire is a turbulent stream of flames.

The collision between the two in mid-air was like a bomb exploding, and everyone only heard a loud "bang".

The billowing heat wave spread in all directions.

Rocks are flying underfoot.

"Not good!" Sasuke's pupils suddenly shrank. He had drained all the chakra out of his body, but found that compared with the amount of chakra of an adult, he was still far behind.

The art of high fireball has begun to gradually decline.

The Flowing Fire Jutsu was constantly disintegrating the Gou Fireball, and Sasuke watched helplessly as the flames flowed, tearing the Gou Fireball Jutsu into pieces, and surged toward him.

"Oops!"

Iruka's expression also changed: "If a student is accidentally killed, it will be an educational accident."

Just when Iruka wanted to rescue Sasuke quickly.

suddenly!

More than a dozen shurikens flew through the air, but they were not aimed at Iruka, but at the turbulent stream of flames.

The shuriken hit the flame stream from the side.

Tear the art of flowing fire apart.

"Huh...huh..." Sasuke, whose chakra had been drained by himself, had a bit of panic and heart palpitations in his eyes, but also a bit of happiness after a disaster, and a bit confused: "Who saved me?"

"Teacher Iruka, Sasuke, he is my friend!" Naruto's voice suddenly sounded at this time: "As an adult, you wouldn't bully him like this, right?"

Naruto had a smile on his face, and the shurikens in the ninja bag on his waist had just been consumed by him.

"Teacher Iruka, your opponent..."

"It's me, Naruto Uzumaki!"

"Naruto..." Iruka didn't expect that the person who saved Sasuke before him was actually Uzumaki Naruto. He didn't even expect that the ninjutsu unleashed by a powerful chuunin would be shattered by more than a dozen shurikens.

The shuriken that was deeply embedded in the ground was burned by the flames until it turned red. When it came into contact with the moisture in the soil, wisps of green smoke emitted, and the air was filled with a faint earthy smell.

In Iruka's sight, Uzumaki Naruto slowly walked up to Sasuke and stood between him and Sasuke.

The confident smile on Naruto's face made Iruka feel a little dazed, as if he was not facing a child.

He seemed to be facing an adult.

This illusion surprised Iruka.

At this moment, behind Naruto... Sasuke, who had survived the disaster and was still a little frightened, was looking at Naruto's back blankly.

A breeze blew by, and Sasuke could see the hair on Naruto's head swaying gently in the breeze.

"I was saved by him..."

Sasuke didn't expect that the person who saved him would be Naruto Uzumaki, whom he most wanted to surpass.

Moreover, Uzumaki Naruto said in public that he was his friend.

"Uzumaki Naruto..."

Sasuke's mood was a bit complicated.

"Naruto, so handsome..." Hinata, who was unable to intervene at all, could be said to have stars in her eyes, but she was also a little worried about Naruto.

Because, all the previous students took turns.

They are no match for Iruka-sensei!

……

"It's only been a year since we last met, Naruto, are you already so good?" Hiruzen Sarutobi, who returned to the Hokage's office, had already used his telescope to observe the situation of the ninja school.

The other classes in the ninja school are basically civilian children or orphans in orphanages.

For those people, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't care much.

Because, in those classes, among the dozen or twenty students in a class... it would be considered good to have five or six ninjas.

In a special class like Umino Iruka, all the students in it are basically 100% sure to become ninjas of Konoha Village.

And many of them are from different ninja clans.

Among them were even children of the Sarutobi clan and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki of Konoha Village.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was more concerned about this class.

"He should have caught the flaw in Iruka's ninjutsu and used his shuriken to disrupt the chakra structure of the Flowing Fire Jutsu in order to destroy the ninjutsu."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was very emotional: "Is this your Ninjutsu talent? Naruto, you have perfectly inherited your father's qualifications!"

Of course, the "father" Sarutobi Hiruzen is referring to here...

Not Whitebeard.

But Namikaze Minato.

"But blind confidence is not a good thing." Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and laughed out loud: "It seems that the guy with white beard made Naruto become overconfident. Iruka, this child, was once beaten by me personally He gave me some guidance. Now he has become a chuunin in Konoha Village."

"Naruto is just a six- or seven-year-old kid. Facing a chuunin, he still has such blind confidence. This is not okay! It seems that Iruka has to rely on the spirit of killing him to make Naruto take off He has the air of a pirate."

Sarutobi Hiruzen believed that as long as Naruto went through six years of baptism in the ninja school, he would definitely be able to get rid of the brand of pirate.

It will definitely make Naruto identify with the Leaf Village even more deeply.

It can also make Naruto become more distant from Whitebeard.

Sarutobi Hiruzen believed in the power of the Will of Fire to baptize children!

"Tsk", "Tsk"...

After taking two puffs of cigarette calmly.

He continued to watch.

……

"Naruto, are you here to snatch this chalk from me this time?" Iruka stuffed the chalk in his hand into another trouser pocket.

Even when faced with Naruto's complicated mood, he still maintained the qualities a teacher should have and showed a kind smile.

"Iruka-sensei, my goal has never been that piece of chalk." Naruto shook his head. He took out two shurikens, holding a kunai in his left and right hands.

One is for holding it upright.

One is held backwards.

The confident smile on Naruto's face has not disappeared: "My goal is to defeat you! Iruka-sensei!"

bang——

Suddenly, a circle of smoke and dust rose up from the soles of Naruto's feet, and his figure suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

The new students at the ninja school couldn't see Naruto's speed clearly.

They didn't even see Naruto's phantom.

Only Iruka vaguely caught it.

"So fast!!!"

The smile on Iruka's face froze. He originally thought that the three of Uzumaki Uzumaki, Shiro, and Uchiha Sasuke were already monsters and fast enough for their peers.

But I didn't expect that Naruto could be faster.

It was so fast that his pupils constricted.

Make his hair stand on end!

Iruka took out the last kunai from his ninja bag. Almost based on his body's instinctive reaction, he narrowly dodged a kunai stabbed by Naruto's left hand.

He swung the kunai in his hand forward, and there was a crisp sound of metal colliding. The kunai in Naruto's right hand collided with the kunai in Iruka's hand, and a ball of fire splashed out.

Iruka's hand was immediately swung away. The pain from the tiger's mouth and the numbness from his arm made him widen his eyes.

"This, what kind of strange power is this?!!!"

He was very shocked.

Naruto, who failed to succeed in two attacks, did not stop. He decisively stepped on Iruka's toes, causing Iruka to quickly pull his foot back.

Bang! ! !

Iruka saw a small pit being stepped on the ground.

If I hadn't escaped in time...

Wouldn't his toes be crushed?

And this was the foot that was pricked by Bai's ice needle. If Naruto stepped on it, Iruka felt that he would have to walk with a cane this month.

"Iruka-sensei, don't be distracted when you are fighting me!" Naruto's voice rang, and at the same time, Iruka's calf suddenly felt a slight pain.

He immediately jumped back a few steps.

He distanced himself from Naruto.

"Is this... Senbon?" A layer of cold sweat broke out on Iruka's forehead. He looked down at an iron needle pierced into his calf.

A few drops of blood were slowly dripping onto the ground along the iron needle.

"He is holding kunai in both hands. When did he stab this senbon? Could it be that he has been holding it in his mouth?"

Iruka realized that Naruto was different from all the new students.

He is even more troublesome than the kid named Bai.

"This is a trick that only experienced ninjas will use!" Iruka narrowed his eyes. He squatted down and pulled out the Senbon inserted into his calf. The pain made his eyebrows tremble.

"Don't be careless..."

"Don't underestimate it!"

Iruka knew that if there was poison in this Senbon, he might have fallen to the ground.

You can't treat Naruto like a child.

Treat him as a peer!

When such thoughts came into his mind, Iruka took the initiative to attack with a kunai in his hand, and Naruto also fought back instantly.

The two fought for several rounds in just a short moment. This was a collision between physical skills and physical skills.

Iruka found that Naruto was relatively unfamiliar in terms of skills.

However, this child's strength is really ridiculous!

In the few rounds where kunai collided with each other...

Iruka's jaw began to hurt violently.

My arms were extremely numb.

Iruka suddenly found an opportunity and stretched out his foot to hook Naruto's ankle. Naruto lost his balance in an instant.

It was also at this moment that Iruka thrust his elbow directly into the back of Naruto's neck.

Unexpectedly, Naruto, who lost his balance, reacted quickly.

Naruto put one hand on the ground and forced his body to turn over.

He raised his foot and kicked Iruka's elbow.

The force of this kick caused Iruka to lift his feet off the ground and fall back uncontrollably.

Naruto also took the opportunity to stand up.
