Konoha: I have a giant of light inside me

When Haruno Sakura came to Konoha Hospital, Naruto's treatment was over, and the toxins on his body were cleaned up, but he hadn't woken up yet, and he was placed in a ward.

And on the seat outside the door of the ward, Iruka put his arms on his knees, bent over, and lowered his head silently.He just raised his head when he heard footsteps approaching, and saw Haruno Sakura in front of him, with a hint of surprise on his face, thankful that Haruno Sakura was safe and sound.

"How is Naruto?" Haruno Sakura sat on the seat next to Iruka and asked.

"No big problem. Mizuki didn't use dangerous poison. Naruto's physique is good, and after your short-term treatment, he is now safe."

"That's good." Haruno Sakura nodded.

Iruka looked at Haruno Sakura, saw that there were no visible injuries on her body, and asked, "Mizuki..."

"He has been arrested, and people from the special search team have also come. It seems that it has something to do with the things he used to enhance his strength."

When Iruka heard this, he was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that the special search team would pay attention to Mizuki's situation, because they needed the first-time information. The village had more or less revealed what the special search team was concerned about. This teacher also understood, and only now did he understand in his heart what exactly Mizuki touched that shouldn't be touched.

"Mizuki, idiot, why would he do this..." Iruka gritted his teeth, even now, he still couldn't believe that the gentle Mizuki in his memory would do such a crazy thing.

"Want to know his reason?" Haruno Sakura said.

"what?"

"During the battle, he seemed to say a lot of things because of his excitement, and among them was the reason Mr. Iruka wanted to know. However, that is not a good word, and it may make Mr. Iruka feel bad in your impression. Mizuki-sensei, you are completely shattered." Haruno Sakura said slowly.

Iruka hesitated slightly, but after a while, he said: "Then Sakura, please tell me. No matter what the reason is, I want to know. If I can't know the reason, I don't think I can do it." Forgive me."

"I see." Haruno Sakura immediately told Iruka the reason why Mizuki came to this step.

The Mizuki in Iruka's memory has never been the real him. The real him will be jealous of Iruka who has been loved by others because of the sacrifice of his parents, and will pretend to be a gentle Konoha, a seed of evil, because he wants to be recognized by others It was buried early in the beginning.

Even though he had prepared himself well, after hearing these unknown secrets, Iruka still kept his eyes wide open. Only now did he feel that he had always regarded Mizuki as a friend, but he had never really understood it. his heart.

"I wish I had noticed earlier." Iruka looked a little lonely, "I regarded him as my friend without knowing anything, but I didn't really understand him."

"If Iruka-sensei, you knew what Mizuki-sensei was like before, would you still want to be friends with him?" Haruno Sakura asked.

Iruka recalled Mizuki's gentle appearance in the past, and said: "I think that the appearance he showed in front of everyone may not be all fake. He just went astray in the middle, and he cared too much about other people. Eyes, too much to compete with others, and in order to achieve this goal, he gradually went astray."

Speaking of this, he sighed slightly, and said: "I really want to tell him—stop competing with others—it is good to accept the current self, it is better than anything else, and life is not tiring. "

Iruka himself once had a big dream, just like many children would have, the dream of becoming Hokage.But later, because of his own talent, he gradually realized the boundaries of his abilities.He also suffered and complained, but in the end he admitted how far he could go, and devoted all his remaining energy to the education he loved.

"He should be lucky to have a friend like you, Iruka-sensei, but he doesn't know what will happen to him in the future." Haruno Sakura said.

"If he is still alive, I will find a way to meet him." Iruka said.

Immediately afterwards, the atmosphere was silent for a while. Iruka looked at Haruno Sakura with a calm face. She was looking in the direction of the ward. From her expression, he couldn't tell what Haruno Sakura was thinking now.

"That, Sakura..."

"What's wrong?" Haruno Sakura turned her head slightly and looked at Iruka.

"This time you are in danger, I hope you don't blame Naruto, Naruto has nothing malicious..."

"I know it's not Naruto's fault. Although Naruto is indeed being used by Mizuki-sensei, it's Mizuki-sensei's own problem. And Naruto is only 12 years old after all, even adults like Iruka-sensei are being used by him. I have lied to him, and everyone else around me must be the same, so I don't think it is necessary to criticize Naruto."

Haruno Sakura didn't think there was anything wrong with Naruto, there was a gap in experience between the two sides, now Naruto was only because he was too young, and the real original sin was Mizuki, why bother to implicate Naruto?

Iruka breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why he said this was because he was worried that Haruno Sakura would be in danger because of Naruto's letter, and he would have a grudge against Naruto.

He knew that Naruto liked Haruno Sakura, and this time it was because he wanted to confess his love to Haruno Sakura. If there was a gap between the two parties because of this incident, then Iruka would not know how it would hurt Naruto.

Fortunately, Haruno Sakura didn't have any other thoughts because of this, although Haruno Sakura couldn't read what she was thinking in her heart, but for some reason, Iruka just believed it.

"Naruto came to me this time because he wanted to confess to me, right?" Haruno Sakura said.

"Ah?" Iruka's body almost fell over, he was actually wondering if Haruno Sakura had guessed Naruto's purpose.

"Mr. Iruka, just pretend that I don't know anything. When encountering such a thing, and talking about this kind of thing will only cause trouble, and I will trouble you to help Naruto when the time comes."

"I, got it." Iruka nodded again and again, "However, it's lucky that you guessed it."

"Aren't many children of our age more important than learning ninjutsu? Don't the girls in our class basically revolve around Sasuke?"

Iruka thought: You are also a 12-year-old girl. ——However, he knew that what Haruno Sakura said was correct, because he himself had passed through such an age group.

"For love or something, it's too early for the age of 12. No matter who it is, it's unlikely to take a good look at its own feelings. Therefore, there is no need to pay too much attention at this time."

"Sakura, you seem to understand many things very clearly." Iruka said involuntarily, Haruno Sakura really didn't speak like a girl of the same age.

"It's just that we can look at it from different directions." Haruno Sakura said.

When Haruno Sakura was talking to Iruka, Naruto, who was in a coma, had come to a world that he had never been to before.

At the critical moment of life and death because of Mizuki's poison, Naruto entered the boundary between his blood and spirit for the first time.

tick-

Naruto looked at the environment here in a daze. There was darkness all around, only a dim light in front of him, so he could only go that way.

Then, he saw the huge cage and the red figure behind the cage.
