Iruka could have easily made it to the field, he is Chunin level and was able to hold Naruto with a seal, although with his NTCM Naruto was able to break out. Iruka could have headed to the field and made it just in time to save Naruto, and die because of it. Hiashi could have made it just in time to save Hinata and also die because of it. It would have had the same impact with Hinata and Naruto over all
