The moon gradually rose.
At this time, Hinata had already left.
In the secluded forest, there were still people training, sweating profusely.
"Sasuke, aren't you going home yet?"
At eight o 'clock in the evening, Naruto stopped training on time. It's almost time to go home, wash up, and go to bed.
Before leaving, Naruto looked curiously at the boy who was sitting on the other side of the training ground and making charcoal. He didn't know what happened to him.
Usually, at this time, Sasuke would have already gone home to have dinner with his family.
Even if he had already eaten with Naruto, Sasuke wouldn't miss the rare time to spend with his family after dinner.
But today, he spontaneously practiced here until now.
"You go first, I'll practice for a while." Sasuke's hands didn't stop moving, continuing to make charcoal.
"Be careful not to overdraft Chakra."
Practicing hard is a good thing, Naruto didn't have any reason to dissuade him. After reminding him, he got up and left the training ground.
Today, Naruto can already use the power of the wind to speed himself up.
Although the forest where he was training is a long distance from home, Naruto still didn't take long to reach home.
Not far from his residence, Naruto stopped on a roof.
As far as the eye can see, there is a shop on the corner of the street.
The shop is not big, just a small bungalow, with the words "Yi Le Ramen" written on the signboard.
"It's still open, then let's have a midnight snack before going back." Naruto's mouth showed a smile, jumped off the roof, landed in front of the shop, opened the door curtain, and walked in.
"Oh, it's Naruto. Still the same old rules?"
At this moment, there were no customers in the Yi Le Ramen shop. As the owner, the shop owner was sitting behind the counter in a daze. When Naruto came in, he attracted the attention of the shop owner, who stood up and greeted him enthusiastically.
"Yes, a big bowl of Barbecued Pork Ramen, no dried bamboo shoots, thank you."
Naruto smiled and politely said his request.
"Alright!"
His hand responded and began to work happily.
As a chef, there was nothing happier than cooking for customers.
Naruto found a seat and sat down. He supported his chin with one hand and watched the enthusiastic chef busy himself.
Gradually, Naruto's thoughts drifted back to about a year ago.
At that time, the Ninja Academy had already started for some time. Although Naruto never went to class, every time he went, it was a shadow clone that was assigned to Chakra.
But as time passed, he gradually became familiar with his classmates and the teacher, Iruka.
Listening attentively, whether it was shurikens, taijutsu, or knowledge related trap skills, Naruto could use them all perfectly, becoming the well-deserved number one in the grade.
Even Sasuke, the second young master of the Uchiha Clan, had a lower score than Naruto, and only his performance in the Shuriken class was comparable.
Naruto was as polite as possible to the teachers of the school.
Respecting the teacher is a concept that Naruto recognizes.
Even if the other party was like those adults he hated and took out their anger on him, as long as the other party was teaching him knowledge seriously and fulfilled the most basic responsibility of a teacher, he would be fine.
Then, Naruto will not speak ill of them and maintain the etiquette as a student.
At most, there will be no in-depth communication.
However, such performance was not praised by people, and it did not improve his situation in the school.
After those adults heard about these things, they gave Naruto an even stronger attitude of disgust.
An incarnation of a monster, but better than their children, learning how to become a ninja, what if he uses this knowledge to kill people in the future?
Influenced by them, the children in the Ninja Academy were more isolated from Naruto.
Some parents even asked Naruto to get out of the school, fearing that he would turn into a monster and hurt their children.
It's just that these undercurrents were all suppressed by the Third Hokage, the Flying Ape.
In this environment, even the children in the same class as Naruto gradually began to alienate Naruto.
Only a few children were not affected and still got along with Naruto.
As a teacher, Iruka was in contact with Naruto, the student known as the Demon Fox, every day and felt his difficult situation.
Being kind by nature, he was finally able to suppress the uncontrollable hatred in his heart and treat this student named Naruto with his own heart.
Although Naruto was a genius, and he was much better than him, who was stupid since childhood, the two of them were the same. They lost their parents when they were young and knew the loneliness of a person.
For the first time, he tried to put down his prejudice and touch the heart of this student named Naruto.
"If there is anything you don't understand in your studies, you can ask me, and I can also explain to you what you haven't learned yet."
After school that day, Iruka stopped Naruto, who wanted to leave, and took the initiative to speak with a smile, showing his kindness.
Then, Iruka found that Naruto was keenly aware of his kindness.
After that, Naruto would take the initiative to ask Iruka for some questions about the basic ninja knowledge.
And whenever Iruka carefully and carefully solved Naruto's doubts, he would get a sincere thank you from Naruto.
Occasionally, Naruto would bring some snacks to Iruka as a thank you gift.
The teacher and the student gradually became familiar with each other in such interactions.
About half a year ago, Naruto, as a Shadow Clone, accompanied Iruka to organize the teaching props until very late.
Then, Iruka took the initiative to invite Naruto to dinner.
"Naruto, teacher would like to invite you to eat ramen, Ichiraku Ramen, very delicious."
At that time, Naruto was stunned.
For the first time, an adult invited him to dinner instead of casting a cold and murderous look at him.
Although he has been familiar with Iruka sensei in the past few months, Naruto still felt like he was in a dream at this moment.
After all, this world is not all darkness, and there is also the warmth that belongs to him, Naruto.
"Teacher doesn't mean anything else, Naruto, you often send me snacks you make. Teacher, I don't know how to cook, and I have nothing to return, so I would like to invite you to dinner to express my gratitude."
Seeing Naruto stunned, Iruka was a little flustered and quickly explained.
He also lost his parents when he was young, and since then, he has developed a strong character and is unwilling to accept the kindness of others. His abrupt invitation may hurt Naruto's self-esteem.
At this time, he couldn't help but blame himself. Why didn't he think of this earlier?
"Teacher Iruka, I am very happy, then I will see you in Ichiraku Ramen." Naruto understood what Iruka was thinking, smiled and interrupted his thoughts, and then deactivated the Shadow Clone Technique.
It was also at this time that Iruka realized that his student probably never attended a proper class at all, and all he did was use the Shadow Clone Technique.
Iruka couldn't help but feel blue veins on his forehead.
But in a flash, he smiled again. His student was so outstanding, as a teacher, he should be happy.
Then, Iruka walked out of the school and went to Ichiraku Ramen.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Naruto running from the end of the street, sweating profusely and covered in a lot of dust.
"Sorry, Teacher Iruka, I was cultivating just now, so I am a little sloppy." As soon as he arrived, Naruto explained with an embarrassed smile.
Iruka shook his head and didn't say much. He greeted Naruto and walked into Ichiraku Ramen.
"Welcome, two guests, what would you like to eat?"
As the boss, Hand saw Naruto clearly and also recognized him as the child who was widely rumored to be the Nine Tails Demon Fox in the village.
However, his attitude didn't change at all, and he still greeted him warmly.
In this world, after all, not everyone would vent their anger on others.
Since then, Naruto fell in love with Ichiraku Ramen.
