"Iruka-sensei isn't looking for trouble with you......" Looking at the sunset in the distance, Mizuki, who was alone with Naruto, said lightly to him.

"Then why is he only targeting me?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

"Probably...... He wants you to really get stronger! Because, he is also an orphan. Mizuki said.

"But...... I really want to graduate! "If you want to be a Hokage, it's not how ninjas do. It's not even a shinobi, becoming a Hokage is a real daydream!

"This ...... Actually, it's not like there's no way to ......" Mizuki said as he looked at Naruto with a smile on his face.

"Tell you a secret!"

"Secret?" Naruto was stunned for a moment, he listened to Mizuki's words, and a smile curled up at the corners of his mouth.

At night, Iruka lay on his bed at home, recalling what Sarutobi had said to him.

Suddenly, a hurried shout pulled him back to reality, and Iruka opened the door to her room and looked outside.

"Mizuki-sensei? What's going on? ”

"Assemble at Hokage-sama! Naruto seems to ...... Take the Book of Seals! Mizuki said with a solemn face.

"What!? Book of Seals!! Iruka's jaw couldn't close in fright, and he immediately turned around and put on his mid-shinobi vest and hurried towards the Hokage Building.

At the same time, in a forest ten kilometers outside Konoha Village, Naruto sat on the grass and opened the Book of Seals, the first of which was the A-level difficulty of the Multiple Shadow Clones Technique.

"What!? The first ninjutsu is the ninjutsu that I'm not good at! Scratching his hair, Naruto looked behind the scroll.

However, the further you go, the harder it becomes. Naruto sighed at this, he honestly looked at the technique of multiple shadow clones, and began to practice according to the introduction of the technique.

The forest outside Konoha was very quiet at night, and what Naruto didn't know was that in the forest around him, there were no less than ten elite-level shadow ninjas, all dressed in black robes and wearing masks, who were responsible for the entire human pillar power trial.

"Hokage-sama!" Clenched his fists angrily, a middle shinobi slashed at the ape and said, "This time it can't be regarded as a prank!" ”

"The Book of Seals is a compendium of forbidden arts written by the second Hokage, and once this kind of thing is used in a bad place...... another Nakashinobi said, pulling everyone's minds to the night of the Nine-Tails Rebellion. What a loss Konoha suffered that night! In retrospect, they were afraid!

In this regard, gossiping and talking, the ape Feihi, who closed his eyes and recuperated, opened his eyes, and he said lightly: "Capture Naruto back!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison and disappeared in an instant.

After that, they scattered in all directions, and Iruka, who was in the middle of it, pondered where Naruto might go.

Seven or eight hours later, Iruka found Naruto panting at a hut ten kilometers outside the village.

"Hey! Naruto! With a sneer on her face, Iruka now felt the urge to finish off Naruto.

"Ahh It's Iruka-sensei! Seeing that it was Iruka, Naruto scratched the back of his head, and he said a little embarrassed: "It's better for you to find it, I just remembered a ninjutsu!" ”

Standing upright, his left hand naturally hanging down, and his right hand grasping the back of his head, Naruto's posture made Iruka stunned for a moment, this was an unguarded posture.

At the same time, Naruto's words also made him a little puzzled, and he muttered in surprise in his heart, "He's here to practice ninjutsu?" ”

"What can you do here?" Iruka asked tentatively.

"Well...... I'll show you a powerful ninjutsu! If I succeed, you'll let me graduate, okay? "After seven or eight hours of practice, Naruto mastered the technique of multiple shadow clones. At this time, looking at Iruka, who had not identified with him before, Naruto had a desire to perform.

"Who told you this?" Startled, Iruka asked anxiously.

"It's Mizuki-sensei! It was Mizuki-sensei who told me about this scroll and where to put it. Naruto turned his back and showed the Book of Seals.

"Mizuki?" A cold sweat broke out from Iruka's forehead, and at this moment, a dozen or so kunai shot out from behind him.

In response, at this critical moment, Iruka pushed Naruto away, and he was hit the wall by a dozen kunai shots.

Of course, a dozen kunai shots were actually one in the right thigh, and the rest of the kunai were shot in Iruka's side. It's also fortunate that Iruka didn't dodge, and if he dodged, he would be shot by the blocked kunai, and he would be completely GG.

"Didn't expect you to find here?" Mizuki jumped onto the trunk of the tree and said with some surprise.

"Original...... That's it! Pulling out the kunai from her thigh, Iruka muttered.

"Naruto, give me that scroll of yours!" Mizuki said to Naruto.

"That...... So, what the hell is going on? Sitting on the ground in confusion, Naruto shook his head quickly, he didn't know what was going on.

"Naruto! Death can't give him the Book of Seals! His thighs were bleeding, his nerves were releasing pain signals, and the cold sweat on Iruka's forehead became a little more, and he explained to Naruto, "That scroll is written down in many dangerous ninjutsu, and Mizuki used you in order to get it!" ”

"What?!" Naruto was startled, and he was preoccupied with guarding Mizuki.

"Naruto, Iruka said that because she was afraid that you would get the scroll." Mizuki said lightly.

"Huh?" Naruto was stunned for a moment, and he looked at Iruka.

"What do you say? Mizuki! Don't be fooled by him! Naruto! ”

"Hahahaha! Let me tell you the truth! ”

"Shut up! Mizuki! ”

"Twelve years ago, this village made a rule that only Naruto Uzumaki, only you can't know."

"Just me? What are the regulations? Naruto asked, stunned.

"Don't! Mizuki! Iruka shouted.

"That's it...... I must not let you know that you are the nine-tailed demon fox who killed Iruka's parents and destroyed Konoha Village!

Don't you think it's strange that you've been kept in the dark by everyone and that everyone hates you? ”

Mizuki's words made Naruto clench his fists, and he muttered the word "hateful" urgently.

"No one will accept you! Even Iruka hates you! What is the meaning of existence in such a life? With a few words, Naruto's fighting spirit was broken, and Mizuki untied the Wind Demon shuriken behind him and threw it at Naruto.

In this regard, Naruto looked at the fierce Wind Demon Shuriken, at this moment he actually forgot the knowledge of the ninja, and he ran forward in a panic instead of to the side.

"Naruto! Get down! Iruka let out a loud shout, and he used his teleportation technique to block between the two, protecting Naruto with his own back.
