Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 10 Teacher, I think I have finally figured it out

Walk out of the Hokage building.

Naruto looked at the ninja wearing a green vest beside him and felt a little complicated: "Thank you, Teacher Iruka."

"Don't say that." Iruka gave him a thumbs up, "Naruto, you are amazing."

"Why did Iruka-sensei do this?" Naruto asked, "Teacher, I think I made a mistake."

"and"

"Teacher, you also know the rumor. I am a demon fox."

Iruka looked nostalgic: "A demon fox"

"You know, we are actually very similar."

"I'm an orphan too. When I was in ninja school, I always did some exaggerated and idiotic things to attract other people's attention."

"But I was in a lot of pain at the time. I couldn't help crying every night in the empty room."

As he said this, he lowered his head and looked at Naruto.

"But Naruto, you are in more pain than me."

"I was just ignored, but you have to endure so much abuse."

"I didn't do well enough before. I didn't take care of your feelings even though I've been through it myself."

Naruto turned his head away to prevent his red eyes from being seen.

Iruka raised his hand and pressed it on Naruto's head, his tone becoming passionate: "Come to think of it, you are much better than me!"

"It was only after I graduated, under the guidance of my seniors and Hokage-sama, and after going through some things, that I realized I had to make myself outstanding."

"Naruto you're already doing that."

"As a teacher, it's terrible that I'm outdone by you."

Naruto grinned and chuckled.

"That's the right way to smile." Iruka patted him lightly, "You haven't smiled like this in a while."

"It will always be like this in the future."

He said seriously: "Although they all said that, I think that rumor is unreliable."

"In my eyes, you are not a demon fox."

"You are Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto."

"An outstanding student recognized by me will definitely become a great ninja in the future."

"Like."

Having said this, Iruka paused, turned around and looked at the mountain in the distance - the four Hokage head statues on the mountain.

He continued, his tone solemn and serious.

It seems like it is describing an inevitable future, and also like it is swearing an unforgettable promise.

"Just like the Yondaime, a great and excellent ninja."

Uzumaki Naruto followed Iruka's gaze.

My great and excellent father is on the mountain.

He began to dislike the words "great" and "excellent".

After eating Ichiraku Ramen that Teacher Iruka treated me to.

Naruto returned home.

I have no intention of practicing my newly acquired "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" for the time being.

Scenes from the day appeared before my eyes.

His opinion of Sarutobi Hiruzen has not changed, although the Third Hokage is not as bad as he thought, and his attitude towards him is not all fake. Some of his care for him is sincere. But he is indeed hiding important news from him.

Iruka-sensei's performance was unexpected.

original
There will still be people in Konoha who are truly good to us.

This village doesn't seem so disgusting anymore.

But I still want to return to Soul Society.

There is only one "Iruka" in Konoha, but there are many in the Maou Spiritual Academy.

In these few days, he still hasn't met his colleague the God of Death that he has been missing.

Tomorrow we will be divided into classes.

Maybe after becoming an official ninja, I'll be able to be active in more areas and have greater opportunities.

Do not know why.

He felt vaguely uneasy about the relationship between Konoha and Soul Society.

This restlessness urged Naruto to pick up the sword hanging on the wall.

I didn't bring it with me when I was in school, because the school didn't allow me to bring any weapons other than kunai and shuriken. I just did a short period of kendo training every day after I got up.

Since I am uneasy
Then consume this inner throbbing through training.

This was Naruto's usual way of dealing with his emotions.

But the moment his hand touched the knife.

The appearance of the knife suddenly changed.

The length has not changed and it is still in the katana style.

But the entire blade turned into a dull, ominous dark red.

At the end of the handle, there is a thin, fluffy red ribbon.

An inexplicable knowledge emerged in my mind - it was a spell.

This sudden change left Naruto stunned.

name!

It was I who knew the name of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Know its name, master its power. It turns out that you don't need to be told your Zanpakutō's name, but you can release and use its power by hearing its name from others?
He gripped the hilt of the knife.

It is a completely different feeling from when I held the "shallow hit" before.

Heartbeat, life, flesh throbbing.

This sword is an extension of one's own chakra and soul.

There is no doubt that this is the change of Zanpakutō's "Shikai".

but.
Isn't the Nine-Tailed Fox a monster sealed in his body? How could it become his "Shikai" and his inner strength?
Naruto sat cross-legged.

Put the knife on your knee.

The practice of “Blade Zen” is to enter the dark sewer within one’s heart.

"Little boy, long time no see." Kyuubi narrowed his eyes, looked at the blond boy with an unusually solemn expression, and greeted him, his tone even having a bit of joy, "It seems that you are not in a good condition?"

Ever since that day when he said "You are the son of the Fourth Hokage", Naruto never came again.

It was looking forward to how much devastation this news would bring to the young boy.

"Your name is Nine-Tails?" Naruto looked up and uttered a question.

Kyuubi was not surprised: "So, you are still looking forward to that Zanpakuto trick?"

It grinned fiercely and laughed, with a cruel look in its eyes.

"Nine-Tailed Fox" is indeed the most commonly used name for it.

But apart from the other eight "tailed beasts", who would have thought that each tailed beast had a family member who gave it a formal name?

Maybe "Zanpakuto" is real.

But the name "Nine-Tailed Fox" is not real.

The spiritual pillar that supported the young man was shattered. This thing is so beautiful.

"Zanpakutō Shikai." Naruto walked forward and looked at it, "I have opened the restraints on you, you can feel it for yourself."

Kyuubi was stunned.

Chakra radiates outward.

The "strange" sword had a completely different appearance, but this was only the smallest part of the change. It was no longer just Naruto's aura power, but also a part of it that belonged to him.

It and Naruto forged this sword together.

"This is so interesting." There was a strange look in its eyes, and it praised, "It's actually true. I didn't feel my power being drained away. What's the principle behind this?"

Naruto clenched his fists and talked to himself.

"Soul Society is not fake."

"I hate you, Kyuubi."

"Because of you, I have been hated by so many people since I was a child."

"Because of you, my father sacrificed himself for the village."

"I still don't understand why I have to seal you in my body."

"I don't understand why you, who was sealed, became the power of my mind."

He raised his fist high, and the fog called "confusion" in his mind dissipated at this moment.

"If you don't understand, then don't understand!"

"I will put your power to good use."

"I'll find my dad, I'll find my mom, and then I'll understand everything."

The Nine-Tails swung its tail and stared at Naruto with its golden eyes.

This guy's personality is nothing like Minato, more like that red-haired Pepper.

"Really?" It sneered, "Then let me see how far you can go."

Dark red chakra surges.

It didn't care that its power was borrowed by Naruto.

Isn’t it the same for so many generations of “Jinchūriki”?

Compared to them, Naruto is more interesting.

A new world.
The hero abandoned by the village
Kyuubi was already looking forward to how the chaotic future would develop.

Naruto said no more and withdrew from his inner world.

As soon as he opened his eyes.

The surrounding environment is not a small house that is kept clean by oneself.

It's in the classroom.

The familiar teacher is in front of me.

came back!
I have returned to Soul Society again.

The teacher immediately noticed that Naruto opened his eyes, and also noticed the changes in the knife on his knee.

"Naruto, did you hear the name of the Zanpakuto?" He did not hide the surprise in his tone at all.

Just as he entered "Blade Zen", he heard the name of Zanpakutō and mastered Shikai.

genius
Is such that?

Naruto didn't answer immediately and looked around blankly.

After a round of inspection, there was no change in the classroom.

No one is confused about their own "disappearance" or "appearance".

His gaze finally rested on the teacher's surprised face - this surprise was only at the change in his own Zanpakutō.

Just like Konoha, time seemed to have stopped at the moment he left.

why?
No time to think about this.

Naruto nodded and answered the question: "Teacher, I think I have mastered the Shikai."
