Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

Chapter 132 Iruka

Konoha Memorial Stone.

The silver-white figure stands quietly in front of the monument.

"Minato-sensei, Kushina Nee-chan, four years have passed in the blink of an eye. Naruto is now four years old. He is strong, but also very naughty. He is simply a copy of Kushina Nee-chan."

"I'm sorry that I can't take care of him all the time. The future things have gave me too much pressure. I need to do a lot of things. But I have told Naruto about your messages and he is working hard now."

"Minato-sensei, there is one thing that I have never told you, Obito is not dead, but he fell into the darkness. One day, I will bring him back and apologize in front of you."

"Minato-sensei, Kushina Nee-chan, I will take care of everything in the village, but not now. I will help you complete your last wish."

"Minato-sensei, I have learned the first stage of your Flying Thunder God Jutsu, but I still can't use it as skillfully as you. A few weeks ago, I have fight against Yondaime Raikage. I am glad that I didn't embarrass your name and your Flying Thunder God Jutsu."

"Minato-sensei, I am also practicing Senjutsu right now. I hope that one day, I will have the opportunity to fight side by side with you."

"Today is Naruto's birthday, I know you two have a lot of regrets, but I will help you make up for it."

"Rin, Obito took the wrong road. But I will bring him back. This is my promise to you."

"Father, I still train in your swordsmanship. Although it's not as good as you, I won't let the Hatake Clan Sword Technique be removed from the Shinobi World. Also, about mother, I will find the answer one day."

Kakashi looks at the Memorial Stone as the emotions in his heart are constantly fluctuating.

Although the new Kakashi has never seen these people, the emotion belonging to original Kakashi is deeply engraved on his own.

He then gently touches the name on the Memorial Stone.

Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, Uchiha Obito, Nohara Rin and Hatake Sakumo.

One familiar name after another, these were once Kakashi's most important people, but they are no longer here.

Obito has fall into the darkness and is no longer his former self.

Kakashi stood still, but his heart was feeling something else.

This World is really cruel.

This World is really cruel to him.

Just as Kakashi thought about life, a teenager holding a white bouquet came to the front of the Memorial Stone.

Konoha's headband is tied on his forehead, and there is a knife scar at the bridge of his nose that connects to the sides of his cheek. But he doesn't look vicious. He actually looks kind.

Seeing someone in front of the Memorial Stone, the teenager froze for a moment, then walked forward and asked, "Hello, are you coming to worship?"

Kakashi turned to the head, and looks at the boy who holds the white flower.

This is… Umino Iruka?

"Ah, yeah, are you coming to worship too?"

Iruka nodded and said: "Yeah, my parents are here too."

Iruka said as he places the white flowers in his hand at the Memorial Stone.

Kakashi didn't talk, and just stood still.

At this time, Iruka was fourteen years old and still a Genin.

As a shinobi, Iruka's Talent is obviously insufficient, but his kind temper makes him a naturally good teacher.

Unfortunately, at this time, Iruka still didn't have the quality of a teacher.

If Kakashi remembers correctly, Iruka should become Chunin two years later and then he will become a teacher at the Konoha Academy, and under his guidance, there will be nine of the Konoha 12.

He really is a great teacher, as Konoha's future pillar is basically in his hands.

After Iruka put down the white flowers, he looked at Kakashi while thinking. 'Why is this person looks familiar?'

Silver-white hair, one eyed…

Suddenly, Iruka remembered. 'Wasn't he the rumored Konoha Hero?

Hatake Kakashi!'

"Are you Kakashi-Senpai?" Iruka asked.

Kakashi was stunned for a moment as he obviously wasn't expecting Iruka to recognize him.

However, Kakashi understands as his appearance is too recognizable.

Coupled with his reputation in Konoha right now, it is a easy for someone to recognize him.

"Yeah, that's me."

Hearing this, bowed deeply to Kakashi, and said, "Kakashi-Senpai, thank you very much for bringing peace to Konoha."

"Konoha is also my home, so it is a matter of course."

Iluka looks at Kakashi as there is a trace of worship in his eyes. The people who protect the village can always be loved by everyone.

"Kakashi-Senpai, is there someone important to you here?"

"Yeah, they are all very important people for me."

Kakashi said, and he could not help but look at the gloomy sky.

The weather today is really not very good.

"Kakashi-Senpai, can you tell me why can people bet their lives for others?"

Iruka questionedly asked.

Iruka's parents died at the Kyuubi's attack in order to protect Iruka and all of the villagers.

Kakashi has also bet his life fighting against Yondaime Raikage to protect the village.

At least in Iruka's eyes, this is the case.

The difference is that Iruka's parents died and Kakashi survived.

For those who make the same choice, Iruka feels that he might get the answer he wants from Kakashi.

Kakashi looked at Iruka. At this time, Iruka was still young and he didn't think about many things clearly. It's no wonder he ask about this kind of thing.

The original Iruka did not immediately acknowledge Naruto's existence after becoming Naruto's teacher. Only after his talk with Sandaime that he really acknowledges Naruto's existence and becoming the most important person in Naruto's life.

"After a person dies, everything will disappear. His past, present life, and future will all disappear together."

"Many people will die in war or in mission, and it is very easy for people to die."

"Some of these dead people also have dreams. Everyone has their own most treasured things. Parents, brothers, friends, lovers, and partners in the village that is very important to them. "

"They trust and help each other, and from the moment they are born, they people they have a bond with think are important, and this bond will grow stronger and stronger over time."

"It doesn't require any reason, but people who have these kinds of bond will do this because it is the thing they cherish the most. In this World, there are far more terrifying things than death, so people choose to protect their important people."

"Your life has just begun. One day you will understand why your parents make this choice."

Kakashi finished, turned and left, leaving Iruka alone to contemplate about this in front of the Memorial Stone.

After a while, Iruka then looked at the Memorial Stone and said.

"Father, Mother, do you think so too?"
