In his life, Naruto had many people around him who truly cared about him.
Iruka really understood and sympathized with Naruto when he himself did not want to be put in the situation of being a Jinchuuriki for the Nine-Tails.
Let’s talk a little about Iruka Umino himself!
Sometimes there are a few people who treat Iruka well, but in reality they only use him to score points in the Third Hokage’s eyes.
If it weren’t for Iruka by his side, Naruto would probably become a second Gaara. As the Jinchuuriki of the One-Tails, Gaara was also hated by everyone around him, even family members.
The only person Gaara can trust is Yashamaru, his uncle.
It was Iruka’s kindness and tolerance that helped shape Naruto into the person he is today.
Iruka Umino may not be an outstanding ninja like Hatake Kakashi or Jiraiya, but he has the heart of a teacher who will never abandon Naruto at the most difficult times.
It was no one else but Iruka who Naruto chose to represent the groom’s side at the wedding, the most important event of a person’s life.
