Heavy Bomb

Nanfeng's lips curved slightly as he looked at the contents of the extra Scroll of Seals, beaming with joy. On the other side, Sasuke also frowned, studying the contents of the Scroll of Seals!

Unfortunately, Naruto's memory capacity was indeed limited, and coupled with the fact that he couldn't use the Nine-Tails Chakra yet, the Ninjutsu he could recall was less than five!

"Only five? I guess the Dead Last is the Dead Last, with such poor memory?" Sasuke taunted mercilessly!

"Hey, hey, it's easy for you to say. There's just too much to memorize here, especially this Sealing Technique. I wish I hadn't bothered memorizing more Ninjutsu after looking at this thing!" Naruto replied with some distress.

"It's enough. Start your own plan. Sasuke and I are going to 'accidentally' meet you. Being able to fight a Chunin properly should be a good way to pass the time?" Nanfeng's voice came, making Naruto and Sasuke a little tempted.

"Let's go. I'll wait for you at the usual spot. We often train at night anyway, and the Hokage and the others know about it. If we don't train today, it would be a bit unusual!" Sasuke quickly got ready and, after making arrangements with Nanfeng, headed to their training ground.

It was unknown how Naruto managed it when he made the appointment with Mizuki, but the place they agreed to meet was near where Nanfeng and Sasuke were training. Any slight disturbance would be noticed by them.

"Do you think this counts as a date between Naruto and Mizuki? No wonder this guy hasn't talked to many girls over the years?" Sasuke said to Nanfeng, his tone suddenly carrying a hint of disgust as if he had just thought of something.

"Get lost! If you're really sick in the head, I don't mind treating you later!" Naruto's roar came, and Nanfeng and Sasuke squatted on the ground, holding their stomachs and laughing heartily.

"Although Mizuki is a teacher at the academy, he's also carried out quite a few missions before. Is it really okay to let Naruto meet him alone?" Sasuke was still a little worried!

Although they were aware of their own strength, this was their first real, actual battle.

"Don't worry, I gave Naruto a few Explosive Tags earlier. We'll go over as soon as we hear the explosion." Nanfeng waved his hand, thinking to himself that even if they didn't come over today, Naruto would be fine.

After all, it was a chance to participate in the plot and make an appearance. Why not?

Three hours later, Naruto, who had mastered the Shadow Clone Jutsu, was idly waiting for Mizuki's arrival.

During this time, he had also studied other Ninjutsu, but the training difficulty was too high, and he had been ruthlessly abandoned. He also memorized three more Ninjutsu and added them to their intelligence database. After completing all this, Mizuki slowly appeared before him.

"Teacher Mizuki, you're here!" As soon as Naruto spoke, he noticed another figure behind Mizuki, which was Iruka with a look of anxiety on his face. "Huh? Teacher Iruka too?"

"Naruto, what foolish thing have you done? How dare you steal the Scroll of Seals? Do you know this is a crime?" Before Mizuki could speak, Iruka's roar reached Naruto's ears.

"I don't know. Teacher Mizuki gave me this mission. He said if I gave him this thing, he would let me become a ninja. The whole mission went quite smoothly..." Before Naruto could finish speaking, he was pounced on by Iruka, and then a warm liquid was splashed on his face!

A giant Wind Shuriken pierced through Iruka's chest. If it weren't for Iruka's protection, Naruto's body would have been pierced.

"Blood... Teacher Iruka, are you okay? Teacher Mizuki, what exactly are you!" Naruto's face began to contort. Perhaps it was the night, but Iruka felt that the whiskers on Naruto's face seemed to have become thicker.

"You're just a tool I'm using. Children are so easy to fool. You do whatever I tell you to do. If you get the Scroll of Seals, your fate might be to be locked up in prison and live a bleak and uneventful later life!"

"But speaking of which, you still don't know why you're disliked by others in the village. Let me, your teacher, give you one last lesson. Uzumaki Naruto, you have the Demon Fox that previously plagued Konoha sealed within your body!"

As he spoke of this, Mizuki's expression became increasingly distorted, as if watching the two suffer was his greatest reward.

"Oh, right. Your favorite Teacher Iruka's parents were killed in that disaster by the Demon Fox. As the enemy of your teacher... what are your thoughts now?" Mizuki continued to drop a bombshell, making Naruto's expression even more stunned.

"Is... is everything he's saying true?" Sasuke, hiding in the shadows and listening to Mizuki's words, looked at Naruto's reaction with some concern.

"It should be true. Naruto was mocked by everyone in the village because of this. In fact, many high-ranking officials didn't initially intend to train Naruto as a person. Jinchuriki are naturally born to be killing tools or weapons to deter other villages..."

Nanfeng shook his head and sighed. As long as they were Jinchuriki, except for the two from Kumogakure, everyone else carried a rather tragic fate.

Looking at Naruto's dazed eyes, Iruka's heartache intensified. He endured the severe pain in his body, raised his hand, and slowly placed it on Naruto's head.

"No matter what others say, to me, you will always be the most obedient student and my favorite child." Iruka's tears dripped from the corners of his eyes onto Naruto's face. It was warm, like a hot drink in the dead of winter.

It warmed Naruto's gradually cold heart over the past decade and more. It was also this sentence that made his eyes firm again.

"Don't worry, Teacher Iruka. You protected me just now, and now it's time for the student to protect you!" Naruto quickly settled Iruka to the side, flicked out two kunai, and attached two burning explosive tags to their tails.

"Oh? You recovered so quickly. But do you, a mere brat, really have the confidence to defeat me? Hand over the Scroll of Seals obediently, and I can give you and your teacher a painless death." Mizuki dodged the two kunai, a mocking smile on his face as he looked at Uzumaki Naruto in front of him.
