Chapter 326 Kakashi's Concerns
Before seeing Kakashi crushing Iruka, Naruto had a very vague idea of the ninja level. He thought that ninjas might have some differences in strength, but the difference would not be too outrageous.
Just like he was confident that he could defeat the Chunin, several Chunins would always be able to defeat the Jonin.
The amiable Third-generation grandfather who usually behaved could only deal with more than ten or twenty Genin at most, no matter how strong he was. After all, ninjas were all flesh and blood, and there would not be much difference.
But after seeing Kakashi's strength, Naruto felt that his cognition was overturned.
Kakashi could deal with Chunin so easily, so he must be able to deal with more than ten or twenty Genin easily. For the Third-generation grandfather, the number of Genin had lost its meaning.
His dream of becoming a Hokage was more difficult than he had imagined.
In the following time, Naruto could always sense the gaze from Kakashi. Although he had long been accustomed to being stared at by such strange eyes, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
After finishing the physical education class, Naruto went through the cultural and political classes.
Naruto would naturally listen very seriously to the cultural courses related to his future ninja career, as these courses would be very helpful for him to become a Hokage in the future.
But Naruto felt a little bored about the course on the Will of Fire.
It was not because he looked down on the Will of Fire. When he was very young, he read all the books about the Will of Fire in the library.
These books all emphasized the Will of Fire, which is to dedicate themselves to and protect their companions, but there are very few books that truly teach how to realize the Will of Fire, and no one could accurately tell him who is a companion.
At the beginning, Naruto thought that everyone in the village was a companion.
Although they looked down on him because of some rumors, as long as he gave his heart, he could gain their heart and gradually gain recognition from his companions.
This was indeed the case. After he showed his sunny and enthusiastic side, the villagers became much friendlier to him. Except for a few people who had been using him, the rest of them would recognize him.
So Naruto excluded those who did not recognize him from the category of companions.
From that time on, Naruto knew that in this village that preached the Will of Fire, not everyone was willing to believe in and practice the Will of Fire.
More people just talked about the Will of Fire, but their actions were completely contrary to it.
This was true for some hypocritical villagers, and some teachers in the ninja school. In Naruto's opinion, the only ninjas who truly practiced the Will of Fire were Iruka and himself.
He was doing it to get recognition, but what was Iruka doing for?
Naruto pondered for a long time, and he couldn't get an answer for the time being, but it didn't prevent him from continuing to practice the Will of Fire. The Will of Fire was a very useful tool for him, just like Ninjutsu.
After school at 3 pm, Naruto went to the street to find people in need of help as usual.
He helped the boss of the store to run errands, helped the old man and the old woman to cross the road, and when he met a bullied child, he would wave his fist to educate the bully.
While Naruto was helping others, Kakashi was also secretly observing Naruto.
There was nothing wrong with what Naruto did, and he was even better than his good friend Obito. Compared with Naruto, Obito's grades were not good, and he would make things worse when helping others.
Naruto would not make such mistakes, and he was just like a role model from a textbook.
Seeing this scene, Kakashi felt a little complicated.
Naruto inherited the excellent side of Minato's teacher, which was a good thing, but it meant that he could not help Naruto, and Naruto did not seem to need the intervention and help of others in this situation.
When it was dark, Naruto left the streets of Konoha.
After wandering around, he came to an open space in the back mountain of Konoha, and began to practice throwing and physical skills facing several wooden stakes on the open space.
After looking at the Anbu who was protecting Naruto, Kakashi carefully observed Naruto's every move.
Judging from Naruto's training volume and skills, Naruto's strength must be far superior to that of his peers, and he is not much worse than him at the same time.
With this strength, he could have graduated and become a Genin and a member of the front-line battlefield.
However, Naruto's current strength is far from enough for the Jinchūriki, and the Jinchūriki is destined to be attacked by the enemy.
Without the strength of a jonin, he cannot avoid assassination, nor can he control the tailed beast to use the tailed beast jade.
Naruto looks very powerful now, but it is hard to say whether he has actually met the Nine-Tails.
After practicing in the training ground for two hours, Naruto left the training ground panting. When Kakashi was about to catch up, he suddenly turned around and said:
"Kakashi jonin, you have been following me for a day, what exactly attracts you about me."
"Or, you were sent by Grandpa Hokage, and no one else has the power to command the jonin in the village except Grandpa Hokage."
Kakashi looked a little embarrassed when he saw Naruto pointed out his identity and goal.
In order to ensure his dignity in front of Naruto, Kakashi said with a cold face:
"Your perception is stronger than I thought. You guessed right. I am a jonin sent by the third generation. My mission is to train you into a qualified ninja."
Hearing this, Naruto returned to the training ground and said to Kakashi:
"Since you are my jonin, come and teach me. No matter how long I train alone, I can't understand the gap between me and the jonin."
Hearing this, Kakashi's mouth twitched slightly and he followed Naruto.
Looking at Naruto's unhurried back, Kakashi looked a little dazed. He finally understood where the wrong thing about Naruto came from.
Naruto is a good child, but he doesn't look like a child.
A normal child of Naruto's age will show a childish side even if he is sensible. This habit is inadvertent. No matter how good he is at imitating adults, there will be mistakes.
Just like when he was studying in the ninja school, no matter how cold he was, he couldn't help but smile after winning over Obito.
It was not until he found out that his father had died at home that he gradually began to close himself off.
Even at that time, he still showed the childish temper and unreasonableness.
But Naruto was different. He could not feel any childishness in Naruto. Naruto smiled at everyone and showed a leisurely attitude in everything.
Kakashi didn't know what Naruto had experienced to become so calm.
Perhaps because he was an orphan since childhood, or perhaps because of the discrimination of the villagers, Kakashi didn't know whether Naruto's character was good or bad.
If Naruto really had no temper, what should Naruto do?
