Chapter 243 (End of the Volume) Their respective paths

"Iruka-sensei, why are you here?"

Sasuke looked at the sudden appearance of Iruka suspiciously, without the slightest look of vigilance on his face, but Shirawa no longer cut but tacitly walked to Sasuke's sides, secretly preparing Chakra. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

They weren't Iruka students, so they didn't have an almost instinctive trust in Iruka like Sasuke.

Under the force field perception, Iruka was aware of their small movements, but she didn't care, her eyes were still on Sasuke.

"If I don't come again, my lovely student will be in for a catastrophe."

Hearing this, Sasuke couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Iruka had no intention of selling off, and in the puzzled eyes of the three of them, he directly said the consequences of Sasuke's absorption of the energy that maintained the operation of the planet, and when he heard his words, Sasuke's face suddenly darkened.

"I just wanted to use this power to launch a certain technique, but I didn't expect it to cause such serious consequences, I will give up this operation, sorry, Iruka-sensei, sorry for the trouble."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sasuke suddenly felt his head being held down by a familiar hand, and before he could feel the touch that was reassuring to him at all times, Iruka's familiar voice rang in his ears.

"I didn't say you weren't allowed to touch this kind of power, and besides, it's not a habit for my students to give up easily."

Hearing this, Sasuke couldn't help but look stunned on his face.

"Huh?"

……………………………………

"Tsunade-sama, why did you agree with Shikamaru and them leaving the village to practice? They just give ninja, and they don't have much experience in tasks, and they don't even have a leading teacher, and the current ninja world is not very peaceful, what if there are three longs and two shorts? ”

In the Hokage's office, she asked Tsunade with an eager look on her face as she had just learned the news.

As if he hadn't noticed the eagerness on her face, Tsunade picked up the teacup with a calm expression, took a sip lightly, and then said slowly:

"Don't worry, they're students of that guy, although they're not as good as Naruto and Sasuke, but they're not ordinary ninjas, and if they're alone, you need to be careful, but they're five people acting together, so there's nothing to worry about."

"But ......"

Shizune wanted to say more, but Sakura, who was standing next to her and had been accepted as a disciple by Tsunade, suddenly interjected and interrupted her speech:

"Don't worry, Sister Shizune, I know their strength very well, even if Tsunade-sama does it himself, it is not easy to subdue the five of them at the same time, it is absolutely fine."

Hearing this, Tsunade suddenly smiled bitterly for some reason.

"Sakura-chan, you don't need to take care of my face, I'm not the kind of person who can't afford to lose."

Hearing this, Shizune's face couldn't help but show a look of doubt.

"Tsunade-sama? What are you talking about? ”

Sakura hesitated, as if she didn't know whether to say it or not, but Tsunade said generously:

"When they applied a few days ago, I was just like you now, I didn't believe in their strength, and told them directly, unless they beat me, don't expect me to stamp the application, I didn't expect them to really challenge me."

Combined with what Tsunade had just said, Shizune suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart, and her face was full of disbelief.

"Tsunade-sama, are you...... Lost? ”

Tsunade nodded without hesitation, "yes, lost." ”

"This ...... How is this possible?! ”

Who is Tsunade? One of the three ninjas in the famous ninja world, even if part of her fame comes from her medical ninjutsu, but her own strength is far beyond the average upper ninja, even if the opponent is a lower ninja, it is inevitable that the enemy will be underestimated, and it will not be lost.

However, the reality is such nonsense, Shizune has been following Tsunade for so long, how can she not see that she is not joking at all now?

"I underestimated them too much, I thought that among that guy's students, only Naruto and Sasuke were more special, I wanted to teach them a little lesson, let them know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, I didn't expect them to be so outrageously good, especially the little ghost of the Nara family, I just showed a little flaw, and he used it infinitely, and their cooperation was so seamless, even I was helpless in a short time, that guy's students, sure enough, none of them can be underestimated."

Tsunade sighed, although Konoha's new generation is excellent, it proves that Konoha's future doesn't need her to worry much, but being defeated by the five shinobi still makes her inevitably a little frustrated, which has nothing to do with bearing, it's purely human instinct.

"Shikamaru is second only to Naruto and Sasuke in terms of overall strength and overall score, ranking third, and even Iruka-sensei has said that if Shikamaru didn't have the special life experience of Naruto and Sasuke, his future achievements would be absolutely immeasurable."

"What he's achieved now is already terrifying."

Tsunade pursed his lips, then looked at a mute that still couldn't accept this fact, "All in all, with that little ghost here, there's nothing to worry about, there's nothing to worry about in this matter, anyway, their families agreed, and it's a little unreasonable for me to stop it again, let them go." ”

"Tsunade-sama is right, Sister Shizune, Shikamaru and they already have the strength to go south and north in the ninja world, even if Iruka-sensei is in the village, it will definitely not stop them, you can rest assured."

Seeing that Sakura, who was also one of the nine students who had been specially trained by Iruka, was so confident, Shizun could only nod helplessly.

"So, Tsunade-sama, what did they leave the village for? If you just want to become stronger, there's no need to leave the village at all, isn't it better to cultivate under Iruka's guidance than to wander outside? ”

Hearing Shizune's question, Sakura's face inexplicably turned gloomy, and her green pupils gradually appeared complex.

The former seventh class, as Naruto and Sasuke left the village to pursue their respective ideas and became fragmented, Hinata mustered up the courage to follow Naruto on the path of cultivation for the sake of the good wishes in her heart, and Shikamaru They also took firm steps for a common purpose, that is to say, the nine graduates who were known as the best class in the history of Konoha are now the only ones left in the village, how can she be indifferent to this?

If it weren't for some purpose, she would definitely have embarked on a journey to find Naruto and Sasuke's backs like Shikamaru and them, instead of being silently patient like now.

That's right, Shikamaru and their reason for leaving the village......

"They want to observe the real ninja world through their own eyes, because only in this way can it be possible to understand Sasuke's philosophy, and staying in the village will only do nothing, as Naruto once said, and in the end they can only watch Sasuke's back drift away, and they don't even have the qualifications to call themselves Iruka-sensei's students."

And this also means that they have finally completely broken away from Iruka's already plump wings, and with their own will, their own choices, embarked on their own different paths, their lives, destinies, from the moment they make up their minds, can be regarded as the real beginning.
