"Iruka-sensei, you...... Approved of Sasuke's defection? ”

Shikamaru looked at Iruka in disbelief, he couldn't have imagined that Iruka would say such a thing, and the others were similar, their faces were full of incredulity, especially Sakura and Ino, who had always liked Sasuke, and their reactions were particularly intense.

"Teacher Iruka, how can you say that! Sasuke, our companion and the one who respects you the most, don't you feel sad that he defected? ”

"Iruka-sensei, Sasuke can't betray the village at all, it's probably because of someone who bewitched him or for some other reason we don't know, so we should ...... at this time"

"Before I say this......" Iruka directly interrupted the eager words of the two, his eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice, "You tell me first, do you really know Sasuke?" Do you know his experience, his way of thinking, his ideals? ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Thinking about it carefully, they only know that Sasuke is a companion who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, although he has rarely spoken, but he has a deep bond with them who have been practicing together for five years, which can be seen from Sakura's reaction when Sasuke seemed to be killed by Orochimaru.

But is that really all there is to Sasuke?

Apparently impossible!

"Everything has a reason, all of Sasuke's actions are made according to his own thoughts, no one bewitches him, the reason why he wants to leave Konoha is because his philosophy conflicts with Konoha's position, in other words, Konoha can no longer accommodate his strength, and in order to implement his own philosophy, he can only choose to leave the village."

As she spoke, Iruka suddenly raised her head inexplicably, glancing at an orange figure standing there on the windowsill behind Sakura, with the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, revealing a meaningful smile.

"If you want to deny what he did, you must first understand why he did it, and even understand everything about him, otherwise even if you can forcibly bring Sasuke back, it will only make him depressed in the end, after all, what you think is right, what is good for Sasuke is just imposing people's will, and the kindness that is forcibly imposed on others is no different from malice."

When the words fell, Shikamaru, who was the most intelligent, was the first to react, "Iruka-sensei, what is Sasuke's philosophy?" Or rather, what exactly is the idea? Is it the same as the will of fire that the three generations of Hokage-sama said? ”

"Will of Fire...... Iruka smiled slightly, leaning on the armrest of the sofa with one hand, supporting her chin, and a look of nostalgia appeared on her face, "The Will of Fire that the three generations of old men said is a spirit, a strong spirit of protecting the village, protecting the important people around them from harm, and entrusting the future to them. ”

After a pause, Iruka suddenly shook his head for some reason, and a flash of sadness suddenly flashed on his face, but he quickly recovered, and no one except Shikamaru noticed it.

Just as Shikamaru was thinking, Iruka recovered and continued the topic just now, "The will of fire is not an idea, it is just a derivative of personal feelings, to be specific, it means that you feel something is important, and then you have a strong desire to protect this kind of thing, which is completely different from the idea. ”

"And Iruka-sensei, what is the idea?"

Iruka didn't answer immediately, but looked at Naruto with a complicated face who was pacing over, and after noticing Iruka's eyes, everyone finally noticed that there was someone else in the room.

"Naruto, can you recall what I told you and Sasuke five years ago?"

Naruto nodded, and then under the puzzled gaze of everyone, he said softly, "The idea is to break free from the limitations of individuals, families, and villages, not to be affected by anything, to stand in the most objective perspective, to think about all the phenomena you see, and to draw conclusions about all the problems, and the thinking guidelines derived from the conclusions. ”

After repeating the meaning of what Iruka had said to him, Naruto's face suddenly became more complicated, "Iruka-sensei, Sasuke, have you found his philosophy?" ”

Hearing this, especially after noticing the unwillingness contained in Naruto's complicated expression, the smile on Iruka's face became even worse, "That's right, he is now a real powerhouse, and he is the only excellent student I recognize." ”

The only recognition?

Hearing this, the faces of the people who were thinking about the concept of the concept suddenly became strange, although they knew that Iruka valued Sasuke very much, but this was too serious, as if they were just using it to set off Sasuke's excellent green leaves.

"Iruka-sensei, do you mean that only people with ideas can be recognized by you?"

"That's right." Iruka said heavily, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he continued, "For me as a teacher, you are just ordinary works with strength and will, only people who combine strength, will and ideas can be called real powerhouses, and they are also the most perfect works, the biggest gap between you and Sasuke is the concept, not to mention the level of the concept, you don't even have your own concept at all, so you take it for granted that Sasuke should not leave Konoha, It is a matter of course that reality will develop according to his own thinking and thoughts, and he has never considered Sasuke's true thoughts, nor has he ever understood the real Sasuke. ”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent for a moment, and their hearts, which had been anxious about Sasuke's defection, finally calmed down a little.

"Anyway......"

What broke the silence was Naruto's always, without the slightest confusion, so firm, so categorical, that it suddenly brought everyone back to their senses who had fallen into painful thought.

"Sasuke is our companion, since we can't understand his thoughts now, let's go to him and ask him face to face, if the village can't tolerate his ideas, we will find a way to make the village change, change until we can tolerate it, anyway, we must not let Sasuke leave the village like this."

Sure enough, it's still so naïve~

Iruka shook his head, but for some reason, listening to Naruto's words that he didn't give up even though he said that Sasuke's departure from the village was completely his own will, a mixed thought welled up in his heart.

After hearing Naruto's words, Shikamaru and the others were instantly infected by the firmness in the words, and echoed together, and then looked at Iruka at the same time, "Iruka-sensei, do you know where Sasuke is now?" Be sure to let us know. ”

"Please!!" ”

Looking at Shikamaru and the others who stood up and bowed at the same time, Iruka suddenly smiled helplessly, although the situation was developing according to his imagination, but after feeling their unwavering faith, he still felt an inexplicable touch, it seemed that he had given up after witnessing the tragedy and despair of countless people, thinking that there was no need to stay in his heart, the most unreliable thing.

Unable to understand what the indescribable thing in the depths of her heart was, Iruka shook her head, shook off the rather chaotic thoughts, and then nodded to everyone, and while taking out a scroll that had been prepared from her arms, she said lightly:

"In that case, I'll help you once, remember, this is the only time, whether you succeed in getting Sasuke to change his mind, or forcibly bring Sasuke back, or Sasuke completely defects, I won't interfere in this matter again."
