Naruto hodgepodge

Chapter 81 Opening Ceremony

The day before school started, Iruka walked briskly towards a magnificent mansion in the village. This was Naruto Uzumaki's new home. The door of the mansion slowly opened, and Iruka was greeted by a fresh scent of flowers. He had already learned how amazing Naruto was, that he had a store at the age of only 6. Standing at the door, he adjusted his mood and stepped into this space that seemed isolated from the outside world but full of vitality.

Passing through the elegantly decorated hallway, Iruka arrived at the living room, where Naruto, Naruko, and Shisui were relaxing and playing Landlord.

"King bomb", "can't afford it"

"Good morning, everyone! You are so full of energy!" Iruka's voice broke the silence in the room, and the three of them turned to look at him.

"Hello, who are you?" Naruto turned to look at Iruka, Shisui pretended not to know him, and Naruto took the opportunity to secretly put the single card in her hand underneath.

"You two are Naruto and Naruko, my name is Umino Iruka and I will be your instructor for the new semester at the Ninja Academy. Please take care of me," Iruka said.

"Ah, it's Iruka-sensei! We have been looking forward to the start of the new semester, and it is an honor to be your student in particular," said Naruto.

Naruko's eyes also sparkled with excitement. She was looking forward to going to school. Kurama had been forcing her to practice ninja since yesterday. After training in the morning, she finally had some free time to relax and play cards with Naruto. Naruko watched the two of them looking at Iruka, and then pretended to be calm on the surface, quietly hiding the cards in her hand into the deck, and then imitated Naruto and said to Iruka: "Hello, Iruka-sensei."

Iruka smiled and nodded, his eyes moving gently between the two of them: "I am really happy to see you so active. Tomorrow is the day you will officially become students of the Ninja School, which means that you will embark on the road to becoming a true ninja."

Naruto nodded heavily, with a determined light in his eyes: "Don't worry, Teacher Iruka! I will study hard and make progress every day!"

Naruko nodded and said, "Same here!"

Iruka looked at them with satisfaction, took out two admission letters from his pocket, and handed them to Naruto and Naruko respectively: "Here are your admission letters, please keep them safe. Tomorrow morning, we will gather at the entrance of the Ninja School. I will take you to the entrance ceremony and introduce other new classmates to you."

"Okay! Thank you, Teacher Iruka!" Naruto took the notice.

"Well, I won't bother you anymore. Go to bed early tonight and prepare for tomorrow." Iruka said, smiled and turned to leave.

In the Uchiha family's training ground, the sun filled every corner, illuminating Itachi's calm and profound Sharingan. He leaped into the air with a nimble figure, as if dancing with the light, and waved his hands quickly. In an instant, eight shining shurikens drew brilliant trajectories in the sun, accurately piercing through eight neatly arranged bull's eyes in the distance. Even the blind spot target hidden in the shadow of the rock could not escape this precise blow.

Sasuke stood aside, his eyes sparkling with infinite admiration and desire for his brother. He stared at Itachi's dazzling throwing movements, his heart filled with the determination to learn and surpass his brother. "Brother is so amazing, he can hit even the most hidden targets with one shot!" Sasuke shouted excitedly, and then couldn't wait to try it.

However, Itachi shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing some concern and apology. "Sasuke, it's almost time to go back."

A trace of disappointment flashed across Sasuke's face, and he muttered quietly: "Brother, you didn't keep your word. You clearly said you would teach me new moves." Hearing this, Itachi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, walked to Sasuke, patted his shoulder gently, and said gently: "Sasuke, forgive me. Next time, I will definitely teach you more powerful things."

Just as Itachi was about to touch Sasuke's forehead with his fingertips to show encouragement, Sasuke dodged flexibly, then drew two kunai from his waist and threw them hard like Itachi. However, due to lack of experience, his movements seemed stiff, and not only did he miss the target, but he also sprained his ankle due to improper force.

Itachi saw this and quickly stepped forward, carrying Sasuke on his back with his swift and gentle movements. As he walked out of the training ground, he said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Look at you, you're still smiling so happily even though you sprained your ankle. Do you want to be lazy and let me carry you?"

Sasuke smiled even brighter on Itachi's back, and he explained: "No, brother. I'm just very excited to think that I can officially enter the ninja school tomorrow. I want to be an excellent ninja like you!"

Itachi smiled at Sasuke's shy look and continued to move forward. Sasuke, who was carried on his back, encouraged himself in his heart: "I must work hard at school, so that my father will definitely recognize me. Just like a brother, he will look forward to me."

Iruka then visited the Hyuga, Inugami, Ino-Shika-cho and other families, as well as several civilian families, and issued an admission notice. This is a special class in the ninja school in recent years.

After several months of education, Naruko has gotten used to human life. Kurama started to torment her a few days ago. The torture between the tailed beasts is quite special. Kurama, who has a big fist, naturally has special means to torture Naruko, who has a small fist, forcing her to learn human training honestly.

The next morning, when the sun was just breaking, Naruto and Naruko started their chakra training early. After the training, they enjoyed a special breakfast - Shisui's special kaleidoscope omelette, with fragrant milk and soft bread. Since Naruto was a repeater in the school, he naturally led Naruko on the road to the ninja school.

At the school gate, there was a lively scene, with parents accompanying their children anxiously or expectantly, and new students chatting in groups with a sense of longing for the future and a little nervousness. In this bustling scene, the arrival of Naruto and Naruko did not cause a big stir, but Naruko's smile as bright as the morning sun and her fresh and lovely appearance quietly became the focus of everyone's attention, attracting many gentle glances.

Sensei Iruka recognized Naruto immediately, and he cordially asked Naruto and Naruko to stand behind him and wait for the opening ceremony which would take place in a while, where some familiar faces had already gathered, including Sakura, as well as several new-faced civilian students.

Sakura was a civilian student after all, so she arrived early. When she saw Naruto, she greeted him, "Naruto, Naruko, you guys are here?"

Naruto was very happy to see that Sakura was in the same class as him: "What a coincidence, we are assigned to the same class, so we will be classmates from now on."

Naruko nodded and greeted Sakura. Many times when they went to the store, Sakura treated her to ice cream. As she became a human for a while, she began to act like a real person. Before, even for a thousand years, she was mostly sleeping and didn't think like a human. Now she is just an ordinary little human girl, and she has no power. The only thing she has is the talent of sensing malice and the ability to connect with Naruto and Kurama telepathically.

After a while, the parents of the ninja clans in the village also sent their children over. The Inuzuka clan, the Aburame clan, the Nara clan, the Yamanaka clan, the Akimichi clan, the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan also arrived one after another.

Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, and Choji Akimichi of Ino-Shika-Chou. The three of them had met each other at dinner before, and Ino also knew Naruto and Sakura, so they approached each other and said hello.

Kiba from the Inuzuka clan with a puppy, and Shino Aburame from the Aburame clan wearing sunglasses.

Sasuke from the Uchiha clan also came with his brother. Naruto didn't know him, but Kurama knew him. Naruto took a look at the cool guy, the one who was deeply entangled with the other Naruto. While Naruto was staring at him, Indra in Sasuke's body casually glanced and noticed that Ashura in Naruto was in a sleeping state. Sasuke also looked at Naruto under the influence, and the two of them looked into each other's eyes.

Naruto, who was being stared at, suddenly felt like he was peeping, and quickly turned his head to look elsewhere. It was all because Kurama told him something that made him want to see who Sasuke was. Kurama rolled his eyes at him and said it was none of his business. However, Kurama forgot to tell Naruto that he had the chakra of the reincarnation of Ashura, otherwise Naruto would have found a way to deal with the chakra of Ashura long ago.

Naruko naturally recognized the ping-pong ball pattern, and when she saw the pattern she thought of Uchiha Madara, which made her feel quite unhappy and she snorted.

There are two members from the Hyuga clan. Naruto met Hinata last time when he sent fireworks, and Hinata nodded when he greeted her. The other one is a puppet that looks like Toneri, but it is controlled by Toneri's consciousness.

The only ones who felt strange were Kurama and Sakura. Something seemed wrong with the Hyuga clan, as there was one more person. However, Kurama was the main character of the manga, so he didn't know Toneri. He knew that Hinata was originally Naruto's wife, but he didn't say anything because he felt that it was unimportant. Sakura was also the main character of the manga, Sakura. She only knew that the biggest change was Naruto and Naruko, and there was one more person on the Hyuga side.

With a sudden silence, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly walked to the podium in the center of the school. He wore the iconic Hokage cloak and the Hokage hat. Under the admiring gazes of the villagers, teachers and new students, the Third Hokage stood on the podium, ready to deliver his inspiring speech on the will of fire.

"Dear villagers, teachers, and our most precious future - the new students," the Third Hokage's voice was loud and powerful, piercing everyone's heart, "Today, we gather here not only to celebrate the beginning of the new semester, but also to pass on and promote the most precious wealth of our Konohagakure - the Will of Fire."

He looked around, his eyes full of warmth and expectation, "'Where the leaves of Konoha dance, the fire will also continue.' This sentence is not only the symbol of our Konoha, but also the eternal belief in the hearts of every ninja. It tells us that no matter what difficulties and challenges we face, as long as we have fire in our hearts, we can illuminate the way forward and let the tree of hope take root and sprout in the soil of despair."

The atmosphere in the venue was solemn and warm. Most of the students wore badges representing their families on their chests and stood behind their teachers.

The sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a touch of warmth and harmony to this solemn occasion. In the distance, the landmark building of Konoha Village, the Hokage Rock, looks particularly majestic against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds, as if silently witnessing this important moment.

The Third Hokage continued, "The Will of Fire is not only a force, but also a spirit, a responsibility, and a sacrifice. It requires us to have the courage to fight and protect our homeland when facing a strong enemy; to persevere and find hope in difficult situations; and to keep our original aspirations in mind and keep moving forward in peacetime."

He paused, his eyes becoming deeper. "Children, you are the hope of the new era and the future of Konoha. I hope you can deeply understand the true meaning of the Will of Fire, not only to pursue excellence in ninjutsu, but also to continue to grow spiritually, learn to care for others, and have the courage to take responsibility. Only in this way can you become a true ninja and the pride of Konoha."

After listening to the Third Hokage's speech, the students nodded one after another, with a determined light in their eyes. They seemed to be inspired by an invisible force, and a raging fighting spirit was ignited in their hearts. Some students clenched their fists and secretly made up their minds to become a powerful ninja; others had slightly red eyes, moved by the Hokage's affectionate words.

"I will try my best, for Konoha, for the Will of Fire!" A childish voice sounded in the crowd, followed by applause and cheers of approval.

With the end of the Third Hokage's speech, the opening ceremony also came to an end. But the flame of the will of fire burned brightly in everyone's heart, illuminating their way forward. The teachers gave the students their final encouragement and blessings, and the students embarked on a new journey with their vision and expectations for the future.
