Chapter 39 Iruka: My Funds!!!
Naruto adjusted his angle and charged up his strength to swing again.
Sasuke's constricted pupils reflected the blonde figure.
A sound of something hard breaking rang out, and then the training dummy's neck snapped, and it fell to the ground with a thud.
A surge of air rose up from all around. Although it wasn't very large, it was enough for onlookers to feel the immense power of the attack.
"Well done!"
Hashirama happily praised Naruto, saying, "As expected of my disciple, look at that strength, wai ri gu da!"
Kurama, who was being suppressed by Hashirama, looked at Hashirama speechlessly, but he also marveled at Naruto's current strength.
When they were playing in the back mountains before, Naruto once knocked down a towering tree with one punch.
Although his fist was also scratched and torn, it was completely healed after two hours.
Kiba held the trembling Akamaru and sighed.
"Holy crap."
Teeth: What the hell are you doing! I admit, of all the classmates I've met, your physical skills are the strongest!
Sasuke's lips twitched slightly; he knew it.
Naruto is no longer like a six-year-old child. When he went fishing the other day, a wild boar ran out and tried to steal Naruto's butt.
Then he was brutally beaten to death by Naruto's fists.
He even borrowed a kunai from the nearby ANBU to cut his own flesh and took Sasuke out for a barbecue feast.
The key point is that it was a year ago when they spent more time together.
As for now, well, Sasuke doesn't want to comment.
It was precisely because Sasuke deeply understood Naruto's monstrous strength that he chose ninja tool throwing, which he was good at, as the competition's subject.
Otherwise, how could we possibly win?
"Uh... Naruto, you did a good job. You can go a little easier next time."
Iruka looked at the dummy leader who had rolled to his side with a mixture of shock and helplessness, and said with a forced smile.
Oh no, another one's broken! If this continues, we'll exceed this year's targets!
I wonder if I can get reimbursed through the third-generation reimbursement agency...
Naruto scratched his hair, the falling strands giving him a delicate and fragile look.
The key point is that the dummy's head is still right next to my feet! Hey, what's wrong with you? Stop pretending to be innocent!
"I know. I'll be less forceful next time."
Iruka nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that Naruto was still communicable and obedient.
If he's the kind of person who doesn't follow any rules, then there's nothing I can do about him.
You asked why Iruka didn't use force to make Naruto submit?
Putting aside Naruto's status as a Jinchūriki, Iruka was genuinely worried that if he angered Naruto by breaking the dummy just now, Naruto might even hit himself.
"Okay, that's good. But you and Sasuke both did very well.
How about I treat you to ramen for dinner as a reward?"
Iruka thought of what the Third Hokage had said, and he also had a desire to get closer to Naruto (definitely not because of Naruto's fists, really!).
Why not take him out for Ichiraku Ramen tonight? That way, we can have a reason to report to the third generation and ask if we can get reimbursed.
"Real Dudu, fake Dudu, can we bring Hinata along?"
Naruto didn't want to abandon any of the members of Konoha's F4, so he asked.
"Well, that depends on how she performs next."
Although bringing a girl along wouldn't be a problem, Hinata is so small, how much money could she possibly eat?
(Iruka ate lunch out and didn't know Hinata's appetite.)
After hearing this, Naruto hurriedly ran back to the tree and whispered something to Hinata.
Iruka stood there watching Hinata's face first turn red, then she said something, and finally stood up, veins bulging around her eyes...
etc.
Veins bulging?
No, she's so young and she already has eye-rolling ability?
Iruka has taught quite a few students from the Hyuga clan, but most of them only awakened their Byakugan when they were about to graduate.
Only a very small number of promising members of the main family awaken their Byakugan in their middle school years, so it is quite surprising that Hinata has awakened her Byakugan at the age of six.
Hinata: Actually, I started using it when I was four years old!
Neji actually awakened his Sharingan, but due to the blow from his young mistress, he was forced to awaken it at the age of 7 instead of the original age of 12.
Neji: Although I can't out-eat the young lady, I can still do my part to ensure her safety!
Well, even though he opened his eyes, he still couldn't beat Hinata.
However, his soft fist technique has become more proficient through practice, and he can now perform the Bagua Sixteen Palms.
"Iruka-sensei, um, may I begin?"
Hinata walked up to Iruka, her voice soft and sweet, clearly indicating she was a gentle girl.
"Yes, of course."
Worried that Hinata might feel pressured, Iruka added, "You don't need to compete with Naruto, just do your best."
Although they are all children of large clans, Hinata is a girl after all. Even though she has awakened the Byakugan, it is unlikely that she can surpass the Uchiha clan, who are skilled in using ninja tools.
After all, the other one specializes in using ninja tools, while Hyuga specializes in boxing.
"Okay, sure."
Hinata nodded and then took the wooden kunai that Naruto had just given to Iruka.
It's warm, that's Naruto's temperature.
⁄(⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄
Looking at Hinata who was standing still, Iruka began to reflect on whether he should have put so much pressure on the child. He should have just agreed to Naruto's offer.
Just as he turned his head to tell Naruto that even if Hinata didn't perform well, they could still be together, another extremely piercing cutting sound rang out.
I stiffly turned my head and saw Hinata shyly holding the head of dummy number 2.
(⊙o⊙)…
Sasuke looked at Iruka-sensei's expression and thought to himself that he was making a fuss over nothing, unlike himself, who was already used to these two perverts.
After all, making a proud young master of the Uchiha clan the bottom of the class (Konoha F4) for two consecutive years is not a matter of gender or friendship, but of fists.
"Uh, that's a good technique. You don't need to do it like that next time."
The Byakugan can see through objects, which helps to find the weak points of the dummy to some extent. With Hinata's strength, she directly beheaded Number 2 as well.
Iruka deeply regretted not telling Hinata to go easy on her, and even saying something like "do your best."
That's great, we're definitely going to exceed this year's target.
This is only the first day of this year's event!
I wonder if I can ask the Hyuga clan for some reimbursement...
The idea was tempting, but Iruka gave up on it when he thought about being glared at by the Hyuga clan as soon as he entered their territory.
After all, not everyone is as daring as Naruto, and the pressure that powerful ninja clans exert on ordinary people is still very high.
Let's go find the third generation.
Having put aside his own thoughts, Iruka led the remaining students through their first close-combat training session.
Well, I've said every time that we should try not to do head surgery on mannequins like those two (slam) students, but none of the later students have the skill to do it either.
