Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

"What should I do?" Naruto looked at the old toad expectantly.

He was wearing a hat like a wizard, with a green bead with an oil character on his chest, and the folds of his face looked as if they could bury Naruto.

"You don't need to do anything."

Gamamaru's eyes seemed to open and close as he looked down at Naruto's 'soul', and for a moment, he actually sighed.

At that time, the plan to seal Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was surprisingly successful, so some of the backstabbings that had been done weren't useful.

Who would have thought that, after thousands of years, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya would finally come back?

To think that after thousands of years, everyone he knew died, even the Sage of Six Paths, whom he watched grow up, died.

It was surprising that Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was the only person from his own time in the shinobi world.

With his eyes slightly closed, he withdrew his thoughts. Without any obvious movement from Gamamaru, the oil bead hanging from his neck suddenly flew up and arrived above Uzumaki Naruto's head.

The bead was the size of a pearl to Gamamaru, but to Naruto, it was larger than his entire body.

The bead circled around Naruto's head twice, then fell straight down as if it had sensed something.

Whoosh!

With a slight sound, Uzumaki Naruto was instantly enveloped by the oil bead.

At the moment of entering the bead, a thick, suffocating, and squeezing sensation frantically came over him. It turned out that this bead was highly compressed toad oil.

Goo ~

Toad oil frantically poured into Naruto's body from his mouth. His five senses and seven orifices all felt suffocated.

Naruto struggled, but the pressure from the oil around him made it impossible for him to break free, let alone breathe, and Naruto felt he was choking.

As Naruto's body continued to absorb the toad oil, a bizarre pattern instantly appeared on his body.

The yellowish-brown lines kept appearing on his body, and by the time the strange lines had completely covered his body, the oil bead outside Naruto's body instantly disappeared, followed by the slow fading and eventual disappearance of the lines on his body.

"This is?"

Everything went on as normal, and Naruto looked curiously at the fading lines on his hands.

'It's amazing.'

"That's it?" Naruto asked dully as he cast his eyes above him, looking at Gamamaru, who looked a few years older.

"Shima, you and Fukasaku will accompany him on his journey to bring back the little girl."

Gamamaru said in an unusually tired voice. Without waiting for Shima to say something, he had already narrowed his eyes and fallen into a drowsy sleep.

...

At the same time, in the shinobi world battlefield.

With the defeat of Uchiha Fugaku, the Land of Shinobi suddenly lost ground on the battlefield.

Seeing Senju Hashirama's power, in order to prevent the meaningless sacrifice, Deidara, Sasori, and others retreated while fighting.

But this would only delay the arrival of the allied forces in the Land of Shinobi.

"Deidara, come on, Senju Hashirama is coming."

In mid-air, Sasori's urgent voice rang out. In the next moment, several black and red figures swiftly swept past him, causing Deidara, who was preparing his final self-destruct technique, to freeze.

Looking at the wooden golem that was approaching step by step, Deidara's words oozed with resentment.

"Damn it!"

Looking at the wooden golem again, Deidara turned his head in shame, moved his feet, and evacuated to the sky.

Senju Hashirama was too abnormal to be stopped by them.

Boom!

Boom!

Every step of the huge wooden golem felt like an earthquake, and cracks spread under its feet.

Even more frightening was the wooden golem, which was full of shinobi. From a distance, it was a head-scratching sight.

At the moment, the wooden golem was no longer a mere jutsu. It was more like a fortress of war, slowly moving forward.

Deidara and others retreated quickly. Soon, they were in front of the second line of defense.

The second line of defense was led by the owners of Mangekyō Sharingan from the Uchiha clan.

The men's faces instantly fell as they saw Akatsuki's crowd retreat in a wretched defeat.

The news of former group leader Uchiha Fugaku's death in battle was already known to them. Still, before entering the war, they had been told that the fight was like the original one from the exam, the one that destroyed Konoha.

In this war, no one else will die except for Uzumaki Nagato!

And that was precisely why, at the moment, they weren't sad.

But they were completely overwhelmed by Senju Hashirama's power.

They watched with horror as the Akatsuki group fled the wooden golem behind them.

'Too strong!'

'It's terrible!'

They didn't even have the desire to fight.

"This ... this is something we can't fight against, right?"

No one knew who said that, but the gulp from their throats was unmistakable in the deadly silence of the battlefield.

"But there is no way we can retreat..."

"The Uchiha women and children who can't fight are still in the village. If we retreat..."

"Why are we fighting this war? We're not even a match for them."

A group of shinobi from the Uchiha clan looked at the crowd approaching from afar, their faces pale.

The huge shadow of the wooden golem quickly enveloped everyone, causing instant despair.

They weren't on the same level at all. They couldn't even think of resisting.

"Hashirama, what's the point of picking on the younger generation? Come and pick on me!"

With the sound of an overbearing voice, in the next moment, behind the Uchiha crowd, a huge figure descended.

The figure had dark blue wings, exquisite battle armor coupled with a two-handed chakra sword.

The familiar figure sent a burst of vitality through all of the Uchiha clansmen while the faces of their enemies instantly gaped.

The five Kages, in particular, saw Uchiha Madara's complete Susanoo again, and their faces instantly became gloomy.

It's not over yet. In the eyes of countless people who were shocked, Uchiha Madara controlled the Susanoo to raise its hand.

In an instant, a blue shield of less than a kilometer took shape in his hand.

"Humph!"

Uchiha Madara snorted coldly. The shield on his hand was thrown out.

As if that wasn't enough, Uchiha Madara's full-bodied Susanoo suddenly glowed with a blue halo that spread from the top of Susanoo's head down to the ground.

The spirits of all the Uchiha clansmen who were affected by the spread of the halo were instantly shaken.

'Glory of Uchiha!'

Their Eye Technique abilities were enhanced! The consumption was reduced!

The Uchiha clansmen felt the change in their bodies with shock, then one by one, they turned into reckless men of war and frantically dashed towards the enemy.

"Shit! Art is an explosion!"

"Performance of a Hundred Puppets!"

"Water Release! Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Seeing Uchiha Madara blow the horn for a counterattack, Deidara and the others instantly followed the shinobi in their counterattack.

That's not all; they charged even faster than the shinobi below.

Deidara summoned the giant clay bird again, throwing clay bombs in the air in a frenzy.

Hoshigaki Kisame and Kakuzu walked on air with SkyWalk, pouring out their jutsu with full force.

But Sasori was the most ruthless of all.

Hundreds of puppets appeared in mid-air, and tens of thousands of chakra strings kept shaking, controlling the puppets to wreak havoc.

On the other hand, on the side of the Allied Shinobi Forces, with the participation of Kage-level combat power on the battlefield, the casualties of the Land of Shinobi were also increasing rapidly.

Every second, people died.

Died under all kinds of jutsu.

At this moment, the Fourth Great Shinobi War fully erupted.
