Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

"Naruto, you should remember that once you confirm that the other party is your enemy, you can't be soft-hearted!"

"Compassion for the enemy is cruelty to oneself. In the face of an enemy, as long as you could defeat the other party, taking any kind of measures is the right thing to do!"

Near the final round, Uzumaki Nagato spoke at length to Uzumaki Naruto.

He and Uzumaki Naruto had met shortly after the exam, so, all this time, Uzumaki Nagato had been giving Uzumaki Naruto a bit of a 'private lecture'.

With Uzumaki Nagato around, most examinees were afraid to find trouble with them for fear that Uzumaki Nagato would bring Akatsuki, the group of crazy people, to settle accounts after the exam.

So, the pair made their way over.

Because of Uzumaki Nagato, Naruto hadn't even gotten the most basic pair of eyes until now, let alone killing someone.

His lone skill bar was only filled with a level 1 Wood Release jutsu.

.

"Yes, Oniisan."

After listening to Nagato, Uzumaki Naruto nodded his head seriously.

Following Uzumaki Nagato's journey, Naruto felt that he had gained a lot.

Even if he left the exam space right now, not getting any reward from the exam space, he thought he had already earned something.

"Study hard, Naruto. You're very talented.

You're only tentatively mastering the essentials of the modern spirit right now, and when you have fully mastered it, I'll permit you to return to Konoha as Hokage.

When you have all passed my tests, you'll go back to being a Hokage for your village, Gaara will go back to being a Kazekage, and Deidara will go to being the Tsuchikage..."

"Really? Nagato Oniisan?"

Before Uzumaki Nagato could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by an excited Naruto.

"Call me Aniki!"

Nagato's face turned slightly back; seeing this scene, Naruto immediately looked positive.

"Aniki!"

"Good, I asked you to call me Aniki, not because of Jiraiya, but because you and I are both successors to the Modern Spirit! "

"Yes, Aniki."

Hearing the other man's words warmed Naruto's heart.

Had he ever been treated so sincerely?

If it weren't for his life's dream of becoming a Hokage, he would even want to stay in Amegakure.

Because here, no one taunted him, and no one bullied him. At most, Sasuke irritated him by calling him a loser.

Naruto suddenly became angry at the thought of Sasuke.

He swore that if Sasuke, that bastard, appeared in front of him now, he would definitely beat him and take revenge for Hinata and himself.

It was okay for him to be mean to himself, but how dare he be mean to Hinata!

Clearly, he and Hinata wanted to help him with extra lessons, but he said they were meddling.

'That damned guy!'

"By the way, Naruto, when you become Hokage, what are you going to do?"

"I will fill everyone's stomach. Jutsu is not just for war, but for people's livelihood and to improve social productivity.

I'll use Earth Release to open up the hills, build roads, and use Wood Release to afforest and plant.

Irrigation by Water Release, and by the way, Lightning Release can prevent insect infestation and pests."

"Haha."

Uzumaki Nagato burst out laughing when he heard Naruto's childish ideas.

He looked at Uzumaki Naruto with satisfaction and asked, "What about Fire Release?"

"Uh ..."

Uzumaki Naruto froze for a moment. Those were the answers he had come up with, spending his time trying to think. But he really hadn't thought about Fire Release.

Now when he heard Nagato Aniki ask about it, his eyes rolled around twice.

"Fire Release... then let Sasuke make fire for me to cook!"

.....

"Who? How dare you belittle me!"

A deafening voice suddenly sounded above their heads. Uzumaki Nagato was just about to retreat with Naruto when he saw a huge blue shadow roaring from the sky in the next moment.

Its wings unfolded, and its back shook as its huge body shifted instantly from a state of rapid descent to one of suspension.

This extreme shift between the two, movement and stillness, instantly caused Uzumaki Nagato's eyes to narrow.

Boom!

Sasuke's Susanoo directly landed on the ground, rolling up a gust of wind with a loud noise.

"Hehe, look who it is... It's you, the loser!"

Sasuke's dismissive voice spoke up, his eyes resting on Uzumaki Nagato for half a second, then ignoring him as if he hadn't seen him.

Out of respect for teachers, he couldn't disrespect this guy.

Also, he couldn't beat him. Otherwise, he could beat himself to death if he went out.

Sasuke simply ignored him.

"Who did you say was a loser?"

Uzumaki Naruto snorted, rested one hand on his hip, and pointed at Uchiha Sasuke, showing pride.

"Heh, you're the loser!"

Sasuke said with a wildly dazzling cocky frown, his brow brimming with pride.

He once defeated him in Konoha's shinobi school; the other day, he was overtaken by him, and now...

This familiar feeling was back!

'Great!'

The corners of Sasuke's lips were slightly raised as if he had already seen Naruto on his knees begging for mercy!

Whoosh!

Susanoo's sword was instantly drawn out and pointed at Uzumaki Naruto.

"Did you know that..."

"Killing you now is easy as pie for me!"

With that, the tip of the sword lightly swayed, generating a bright sword aura, almost blinding Uzumaki Naruto.

"Oh, you're strong now, I'm weak now, so what's the point of killing me?"

Uzumaki Naruto's blue eyes blinked.

In the next moment, he directly opened his arms and took a step forward towards the tip of Susanoo's sword.

"You loser! Come on and kill me! Kill me. I won't submit to you!"

Uzumaki Naruto looked provocatively at Uchiha Sasuke.

Uchiha Sasuke froze for a moment as if he hadn't expected Naruto to be so brave.

Uchiha Sasuke was instantly furious at being called a loser. Then he forced down the anger in his heart.

With a slight movement of his eyes, he had come up with a way to get under Uzumaki Naruto's skin!

"Heh, Uzumaki Naruto, I really won't accomplish much by killing you right now."

Snap.

From his pocket, he pulled out the ten Jōgan he hadn't used and then, together with the dozen or so skill upgrade cards he hadn't used, threw them at Uzumaki Naruto.

"Here are ten Jōgan. You should fuse the Advanced Byakugan first and then upgrade your skills with the upgrade card. When we both have three units of health, I'll kill you. I'll see what you have to say at that time!"

"Okay!"

Without saying another word, Uzumaki Naruto picked up what Sasuke had thrown on the ground in front of him.

One pair, two pairs, and three pairs...

With a single stroke, the nine pairs of Jōgan merged into his eyes, and Uzumaki Naruto's eyes instantly turned pale blue.

[Congratulations, you have gained the Advance Byakugan -- Tenseigan!]

[Tenseigan can be converted into Tenseigan Chakra Mode and can use the abilities such as Truthseeker Orb, Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, and Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.]

[It is detected that you are an examinee for the survival exam. The number of Truthseeker Orb used by Tenseigan will be limited: 3x; Use of Tenseigan Chakra Mode for 3 minutes, and use of Tenseigan ability: Silver and Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion 1x.]

Naruto blinked. He didn't think carefully about what it meant by so many abilities being limited and simply grabbed his skill upgrade card to upgrade his Wood Release.

A dozen flashes of light passed by, and Naruto looked up bitterly.

"Hey Sasuke, do you have any more upgrade cards? My level 15 Wood Release isn't even full yet."

"Uh..."

Uchiha Sasuke was waiting for the next battle.

He didn't expect that level 15 Wood Release wasn't its full level yet, and even more unexpectedly, Naruto dared to say it out loud!

'How thick-headed is he?'

Uchiha Sasuke sneered. Fortunately, the next battle wasn't a competition on how thick one could get; otherwise, he would have given up.

"No!"

Sasuke spoke in a deep voice. Then, Susanoo's sword was pointed at Naruto again:

"My Lightning Release is also at level 15. Hurry up and fight with me!"

"I can't."

Uzumaki Naruto's head shook like a rattle, "I'm not going to fight you when your skills are at full level, and mine aren't."
