Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

extra chapter as compensation.

...

'Resist foreign enemies?'

'That monster?'

'Could it be that back then, Hamura and I really misjudged Mother?'

In Konoha's Uchiha clan area, the Sage of Six Paths looked at his mother, who had made her choice, with a gloomy and uncertain expression. He was caught in self-doubt.

Back then, he and Hamura approached their mother more than once. However, they were forcefully dismissed by her each time. Their mother didn't even want to think about their opinions.

Then he met Gamamaru on a trip.

Under Gamamaru's guidance, he saw the sufferings of the people in the shinobi world and adopted the advice of the other party to seal his mother.

'Did I really do something wrong?'

The Sage of Six Paths wouldn't have thought like this before seeing the monster. But now, he couldn't bear to think otherwise.

After all, ...

That monster was certainly not an existence from the shinobi world, whether in terms of aura or means!

Thinking back to the weirdness of the other party's body, Sage of Six Paths slightly pondered. 'If Mother made White Zetsu in large quantities to defend against that horrible guy...'

'Those White Zetsu had no thoughts...'

'No soul ...'

'Maybe it would really work?'

'Oh!'

Thinking of this, the Sage of Six Paths was surprised!

He found that everything surprisingly made sense.

At this moment, obviously, in the state of a wandering soul, he actually felt like he was suffocating a bit!

He took a deep breath. Although he had already stopped breathing, it seemed as if doing so would reduce his stress.

'No way!'

He had to, but he still couldn't believe it!

The Sage of Six Paths' gaze shifted several times.

'If Mother really made the White Zetsus resist this kind of thing, didn't my younger brother and I misjudge her?'

'Wasn't we bewitched by Gamamaru?'

The more the Sage of Six Paths thought about it, the more confused he got.

After living in the shinobi world in his soul form for many years, he naturally understood that the present strength of the shinobi world was no match for that strange beast.

The other party was so bizarre that even he almost died!

Swish!

The Sage of Six Paths' soul once again drilled into Uchiha Sasuke's body. Uchiha Sasuke, who had fainted on the ground, instantly stood up, then his body flickered and disappeared into thin air.

In place, only Uchiha Itachi, whose eye sockets were gushing blood, remained.

His body had already reached its limit. At this moment, with the loss of blood, his life was rapidly fading.

　　...

"For this question, I choose A."

Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's dignified voice rang out. No one knew the correct answer to this question better than she did.

Because that's what she had been doing.

She ran to the shinobi world from the Ōtsutsuki clan to look after the God Tree. However, she ate the chakra fruit...

Naturally, she had to be wary of those people from the Ōtsutsuki clan.

[Correct answer.]

This time, the exam space gave a short reply. There wasn't even an analysis before it moved on to the next question.

The crowd in the exam space didn't even feel that there was anything wrong with this. After all, their minds were very tense right now.

Because of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's strength, they didn't get a chance to get involved, but their spirits were also rapidly consumed by the tense feeling.

But the people of the shinobi world didn't think so!

Especially those people in the casino.

...

"Hahaha! Mori! You're awesome! Awesome!"

Saying so, the casino guests excitedly rushed up, took out a stack of chips, and threw them into Mori's arms.

"Haha, after listening to Mori, I won again! Come one, come on, Mori! Here's your reward! For your good luck!"

"Yeah, awesome! We profited a lot because of Mori. We shouldn't be petty."

Saying that, the group of people rewarded the old veteran. Their mouths were full of praises, hoping that he would help them with the next question.

'Hmm...'

The owner of the casino coldly looked at the old veteran, whose face was filled with cold sweat.

'How dare you take advantage of my casino!'

'You came to MY establishment to take MY money?'

The owner of the casino stared at the veteran, and behind him, two hired wandering shinobi also looked at him coldly, which made him sweat even more.

If these were normal times, these people's reward could kill him with joy.

Now, death was coming...

How could he be happy?

...

At the same time, some people in the shinobi world also narrowed their eyes and examined Ōtsutsuki Kaguya on the live broadcast screen.

At the moment, they were also a little confused.

They were now perplexed. 'Was Ōtsutsuki Kaguya a good guy or a bad guy?'

'If Ōtsutsuki Kaguya is the good guy, doesn't that make Gamamaru the bad guy?'

'What kind of bad guys is that... Gamamaru?'

'Is it at Uzumaki Nagato's level or Black Zetsu's level?'

Uchiha Obito wasn't even on the top list of bad guys anymore...

The minds of everyone in the shinobi world were spinning because of these questions.

At this moment, the third question of the exam space had already appeared.

With the emergence of the third question, people in the shinobi world were even more confused.

[Question 3: What is Gamamaru's purpose in taking Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's powers?]

[A. To take Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's power.]

[B. Defend against foreign enemies and let the three sacred places in the shinobi world live on.]

[C. Merit to become the next Great Toad Sage.]

"This ..."

Looking at the third question that appeared, everyone was rendered speechless.

Especially that option A, Gamamaru took Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's power, in order to take Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's power.

'That... '

'What the hell is that!?'

...

At this moment, somewhere in the Shinobi world, 'Uchiha Sasuke' was holding two White Zetsus in each of his hands.

The White Zetsus, although they could use Wood Release and hide underground; but for the strong, they were like earthworms. If they wanted to find them, they could always find a few.

'Uchiha Sasuke' looked cold. He was about to perform an experiment with the two White Zetsus.

He wanted to see if these White Zetsus that had no independent thoughts were really made to defend against that kind of monster.

If that was true...

'Mount Myoboku!!!'

'Uchiha Sasuke' was about to make a move when he suddenly saw the third question in the exam space live broadcast.

'The answer to this question should be...'

The Sage of Six Paths, who was controlling Uchiha Sasuke's body, slightly moved his gaze.

Thousands of years ago, he may have been somewhat ignorant of the Sage Mode and even needed to learn jutsu and senjutsu from Gamamaru.

But now, after thousands of years, he had fully understood the relationship between natural energy and chakra.

The limit of chakra was senjutsu chakra. Only when it reached this level could it be a match for natural energy.

In other words, ordinary jutsu had no damaging effect on a shinobi who had practice to the level of Six Paths. Only the same level of senjutsu or taijutsu could hurt him.

As for the Shinobi world, according to him, there were three sage regions, as the origin of natural energy, including Mount Myōboku.

Back then, his mother, as the Jūbi's Jinchūriki, raised the God Tree in the shinobi world, which constantly produced and absorbed chakra.

This greatly violated the natural energy of the planet and affected the three sage regions.

"Is this, is this why Gamamaru approached us? "

The Sage of Six Paths' expression slightly changed. He felt that he was infinitely close to the real answer.

The answer was even crying out for him.

The Sage of Six Paths took a deep look at the screen. His figure flickered and instantly disappeared.

Now he knew the reason why Gamamaru had approached them. But whether the White Zetsus his mother created could resist that monster, it still had to be confirmed!
