Naruto: Changing Fate

Welcome! ?"Uh...hehehehe..."

Due to being cold-eyed and insulted since childhood, coupled with his keen sense of malice brought about by his identity as a Jinchuuriki, Naruto can easily understand the emotional changes of others and understand them closely.So much so that after hearing the angrily denounced words of the person in front of him, which was vaguely mixed with a sense of joy and relief, the corners of Naruto's mouth tilted up slightly involuntarily.Then he raised his drooped head to meet Iruka's complicated eyes of anger and joy.While curling his eyes and smiling playfully, he raised his hand, scratched the back of his head, and responded carelessly.

"I asked you to find it, Iruka-sensei... What a pity! This little time is only enough for me to barely learn one ninjutsu."

"Huh? Learn ninjutsu...? Could it be that this child did not come to this training ground to escape capture...but came to this training ground so that he could practice ninjutsu?!"

As Naruto responded with a smile, Iruka realized that not only Naruto's entire image was stained by dust, and became unkempt.Even the clothes Naruto was wearing looked wrinkled as if he had just experienced some strenuous exercise.As a result, Iruka had heard that Naruto had stolen the Sealed Book, and driven by the thought of hating iron, the angry words that came to his lips suddenly no longer had the motivation to blurt out.Then, while looking up and down Naruto's figure with complex eyes, he muttered and sighed deep in his heart.

"Naruto, who is usually naughty and mischievous, actually did this..."

Of course, if Iruka knew that the embarrassed look Naruto was showing now was just a basic low-level wind escape ninjutsu, which was easily created by lying on his back leisurely before...

Well, I'm afraid what awaits Naruto will be a Tekken meal full of his master's love...

"Ah! That's right! Hey, Iruka-sensei! Can you wait for me a little longer? I'll learn this super-powerful ninjutsu in no time!"

At the same time, Iruka fell into a brief state of confusion compared to the shock.Naruto, who seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, was distracted and noticed that Mizuki, who was rapidly approaching, had arrived in the nearby woods.Then, after all the actors were in place, his face naturally showed a bit of excitement, and he begged Iruka with gestures with his hands.While quietly moving a little, Iruka's gaze, which was supposed to be unprepared and with his back to Mizuki, followed Naruto's figure.Finally, it was on the same straight line as the direction of Mizuki's hidden figure.

"After I learn it, Mr. Iruka, you will allow me to graduate, right? I've heard people say that! As long as I learn the ninjutsu in this scroll, I will definitely be able to graduate successfully, right?" Yo!"

"what……!"

In comparison, Naruto, who was overjoyed, looked quite excited and happy.After hearing what Naruto said, Iruka's expression suddenly changed.From Naruto's motive for stealing the book, he quickly realized something was wrong and at the same time subconsciously spoke up and asked Naruto about the identity of the person behind the scenes.

"Who told you that?!"

"Who told me...Of course it was Teacher Mizuki who told me!"

While responding to people with a smile and solving doubts, through the feedback of his own constant perception, Naruto could easily detect that Mizuki, who was lurking in the dark, was getting ready to make a move now that his plan had been exposed.Then he pretended not to know anything about it, and turned his back naturally, showing Iruka the "Sealed Book" scroll he was carrying, while also allowing himself to face Mizuki directly, so as to avoid the upcoming incident. During the attack, an irreversible accident occurred due to the butterfly effect.

"Whether it's this scroll or this meeting place, it was Teacher Mizuki who told me, right? Moreover, he also told me that as long as I give him the scroll after learning the ninjutsu and let him send it back, There won’t be any problems!”

"It's actually Mizuki..."

Under Naruto's carefree response and explanation, Iruka, who had been vaguely feeling that something was wrong during the search process, suddenly felt as if he had found the key to unlocking all the problems, and his thoughts suddenly became clear. .Then, after thoroughly deducing the true intentions of Mizuki who was hurriedly reporting Naruto's "crime" to everyone, he frowned and spoke again, trying to tell the "deceived" person. Naruto, please explain the misunderstanding.

"Listen to me, Naruto, that's not the case. It's Mizuki who is taking advantage..."

"Whoa, whoa—!"

However, before Iruka could express all the words that came to his lips.Using his body's instinctive warning of crisis events, Iruka spotted the figure of Mizuki standing on a branch not far away with a sneer from the corner of his eye.And the sharp kunai that was approaching quickly with the sound of piercing the air!

"Danger--!"

Deep in Iruka's heart, this thought just emerged.The warning words came out of his mouth without waiting for the subconscious to come to his lips.Iruka's body was driven by the thought of protecting Naruto, and he quickly hugged Naruto's "defenseless" small figure into his arms.While using the force of his feet to push hastily on the ground, he let his body fly backwards as much as possible.The situation became even more dangerous. With only less than an inch between the two men's bodies and the kunai thrown by Mizuki, they managed to dodge it without any damage!

However, Iruka, who was almost instinctively trying to protect Naruto from harm, failed to notice...

The moment he held Naruto's figure firmly in his arms.Naruto, who seemed to be lifted off the ground by Iruka, actually stepped on the ground forcefully without making a move.Then, while retreating along the way, Iruka's figure was "lucky" to dodge all the attacks while Naruto was quietly boosting him... Otherwise, according to common sense, he would be attacked suddenly in this situation. In the meantime, he made evasive actions belatedly.Even if Iruka's retreating movement allows him to avoid a certain number of kunai, it will definitely cause a lot of damage to him!

In the final analysis, even if he wanted to restore the direction of the original plot and try to avoid the butterfly effect... but under the influence of Iruka's previous kindness, Naruto couldn't bear it no matter what, knowing that Iruka would be hurt. , but he still chose to stand by and watch this happen with peace of mind!

"Huh? Did you escape? You're really lucky..."

At the same time, after seeing Iruka's "agile movements", he unexpectedly turned all his sneak attacks into futility, Mizuki, who was standing not far away, had a look of victory on his face. The contemptuous sneer in his hand suddenly stiffened slightly.Immediately, while secretly lamenting Iruka's "good luck" in his heart, seeing that his figure and plan had been completely exposed, he simply stopped trying to pretend to be the good old man.Then he completely revealed his true nature and sneered in a cold voice.

"It's a shame you found this place, Iruka. It's a pity that you still like to meddle too much... If you could be more honest, your little life wouldn't be left here by me. Got it!"

"I see, that's what it's all about..."

Facing the appearance of the mastermind behind the scenes, Iruka had no time to think carefully about why his hasty jump just now was faster and longer than before when he went all out.On the contrary, when Mizuki almost acquiesced that he was the culprit of the book theft incident, the declaration of killing and silencing made Iruka furious.Then, while clenching his hands tightly into fists, the veins on his forehead that had subsided were once again exposed.While glaring at Mizuki with splitting eyes, he roared word by word in a deep voice.

"Mizuki, you beast..."

"Okay, Naruto..."

Facing the cold gaze cast by Iruka, Mizuki, who thought he had a sure victory in the current situation, turned a blind eye and ignored Iruka's existence.He changed to a gentle and kind tone, and slowly stretched out his right hand towards Naruto, who was looking back and forth in confusion in Iruka's arms.

"As agreed, please give me the scroll quickly."

"Huh? Ah, oh..."

"No! Naruto! You must not leave it to him!"

Looking at Naruto in his arms with confusion, he seemed to subconsciously agree to give up the "Sealed Book", which made Iruka suddenly anxious.Then he adjusted his posture a little, and firmly protected Naruto behind him, so that he could use his body to cut off the eye contact between Naruto and Mizuki, and at the same time, he hurriedly spoke out to persuade and stop Naruto.

"The reason why this scroll is called the 'Sealed Book' is because the ninjutsu recorded in it is too dangerous... And in order to get it, Mizuki took advantage of you! He didn't want to help you graduate successfully!"

"Hey, this bastard Iruka really likes to talk..."

After seeing that the "Sealed Book" that was about to be obtained under the temptation of his own words was protected by Naruto again because of Iruka's angry voice, and it was obviously impossible to hand it over to him easily, Mizuki couldn't help but With his brows furrowed, he cursed a few words in a cold voice.Then he tried hard to maintain the expression on his face so that he would not look too ferocious and scary. At the same time, thinking about Mizuki's heart, he spoke again, bent his eyes and smiled and continued.

"Ah, by the way, Naruto, it's useless for you to hold this scroll anyway, so why not give it to me... In exchange, I will tell you something that everyone in the village knows, except you. How about the truth?”

"Everyone in the village knows, but this child doesn't know...could it be...!"

From Mizuki's few words, he keenly captured the key words, and Iruka quickly realized that the so-called "truth" that the person in front of him was trying to use as a bargaining chip to exchange the "Sealed Book" with Naruto meant Which thing.His face became more and more frightened and angry, and he didn't care to appease the silent Naruto behind him. He roared with all his strength between the raised veins, trying to stop Mizuki from continuing to speak.

"No...that's not possible! Mizuki! Don't—!"

"Jie Jie, you must have heard the heroic story of the Fourth Hokage sealing the nine-tailed demon fox in 12 years and bringing peace to the village many times, right? Naruto..."

Unfortunately, for Mizuki, who was determined to get the Sealed Book, Iruka's loud obstruction was destined to be in vain.Regardless of Iruka's obstruction, he still spoke on his own, sneered at Naruto and continued.

"It's just that what you may not expect is... After that incident, under the order of the Sandaime Hokage, the village had an additional rule that must be obeyed... and the content of this rule, in the entire village, is only you. A man who knows nothing about it.”

However, Mizuki, who was pretending to be pretentious and trying to cause greater psychological pressure to the "bewildered" Naruto, probably never imagined that...

The reason why Naruto remained silent at this moment was because he had been worried and afraid...

Of course, what he was worried about was definitely not that Naruto was afraid of Mizuki, who was weak but dared to talk nonsense... but that he was afraid. He was pretending to face Mizuki, thinking that he was sure of victory, and showing a confident attitude. When you look like making a fool of yourself, will anyone not be able to hold it back and burst out laughing on the spot!

"Pfft... This kind of nonsense can also be used as a bargaining chip to exchange scrolls... Mizuki, this idiot, couldn't be naive to think that those in the village who love to point fingers behind people's backs, Is it true that the mouths of idiots gossiping are like zippers, able to firmly guard this 'truth' from leaking out?"

After burying his face into Iruka's back, Naruto was able to use Iruka's body as a barrier to cover up the strangeness of his shoulders that were constantly shaking due to his efforts to suppress laughter.Then, in the depths of his heart, images of idiots in the past years who wished they knew the "truth" earlier and then rushed to commit suicide, staged scenes of deceitful thoughts.While the smile in his eyes grew brighter, he quietly turned his head slightly, looking past Iruka's waist to look at the proud figure of Mizuki.Then he was talking to himself in his heart, teasing and teasing with a strange look on his face.

"Even if I don't have the help of "spoilers" of the original plot... But this stupid and ignorant method can also be used to deal with the naive and naive prince himself who is ignorant of the world in the original work. It can be somewhat effective..."

"Before I get the information I want... I'll just watch you pretend."

"Anyway, no matter how much you show off now, you will have to cry back to me ten times a hundred times later!"
