Naruto's Exam

In the distant Fantasy Continent, "Water, water, water element guardian?!"

Senju Tobirama's face was filled with shock and amazement.

The supreme Lord of Fire, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was also so surprised, "Guardian of Water Element!?" As a direct disciple of the First and Second Generation Great Sages, for the students of the Fire Village, this woman was both their mentor and a kind mother-like existence.

I never expected that this noble adult could be reborn and return to the image of his youth just like Tobirama-sensei.

"Oh, Tobirama, so you have also returned to the world of the living?" The water element guardian Mitohime turned her gaze to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "And our little monkey, it seems that time is not forgiving."

"Yes, Lord Guardian of Water Element." The Third Hokage responded with his head down in awe.

Princess Mito shook her head gently, "Let's put these topics aside for now." She walked towards Uzumaki Naruto standing in the crowd and gently stroked his golden hair, "Child, I'm sorry to make you suffer so much, can I lift up your shirt for a moment?"

Naruto tilted his head in confusion, and faced with the sudden tenderness of this stranger, he looked to Grandpa Hokage for help. The Third Hokage understood his intention and nodded.

"Okay." Naruto pulled up his orange warrior cloak, exposing the skin of his abdomen, "Is that it, ma'am?"

Mito-hime smiled at Naruto, then her face darkened and she shouted, "Seal!"

As her command fell, Naruto groaned and fainted in her arms.

"!" Seeing this scene, the confused Sand Ninja Gaara instantly assumed a fighting stance.

However, Kakashi stopped him in time. He had already guessed the identity of the red-haired woman—she was the legendary Uzumaki Mito, who had miraculously returned!

"Rest in peace, Nine-tailed Demon Fox!"

Kakashi heard a voice deep in his heart growling: "Just wait and see, one day I will...will...zzz..."

"Lord Mito, my other two students are also in critical condition!" Kakashi reminded anxiously.

After all, in everyone's eyes, sealing techniques and barrier techniques are undoubtedly the areas that Lady Mito is most proficient in. If she takes action, she should be able to find a way to remove this mysterious barrier.

After handing the unconscious Naruto over to Umino Iruka who took the initiative to step forward, Princess Mito placed her hand on the outer wall of the strange barrier.

"There is no chakra aura here, and it does not belong to any known sealing formation..."

After a moment, Mito-hime also shook her head helplessly.

Seeing this, Kakashi lowered his head in frustration. But Uchiha Itachi, hovering in the sky, knew that if a solution could not be found within 24 hours, the next choice would bring great danger. At this moment, the girl with cherry blossom-colored hair in the barrier seemed unable to hold on for too long.

Plus the curse mark on Sasuke's face -

"This is a curse seal! It must be that despicable traitor who abandoned Konoha and served as the 'Hollow Secretary' in Akatsuki - Orochimaru!" The anger in Uchiha Itachi's heart burned again, and he secretly decided to make Orochimaru pay the price he deserved.

Mito-hime looked at the injured and poisoned girl with long cherry blossom hair, and naturally did not ignore the girl with the same hair color as herself.

Although he was tall, he was thin and looked pitiful.

The girl's body was covered with tooth marks. How could Mito-hime, being a princess of the Uzumaki clan, not understand what all this meant - how much suffering had she endured, how much humiliation had she gone through?

Seeing the forehead protector from the Grass Country and the Hidden Grass Village on the girl's forehead,

There was no need to deliberately perceive it, Mito-hime's angry chakra had already condensed into a solid entity around her, and her red hair, like a blood-red waterfall, was dispersed by her own powerful energy, surging wildly around her!

"Um……"

Although not as powerful as her brother, the Great Sage Hashirama, Princess Mito's chakra is still shocking. Kakashi, Iruka, the Sand Ninja, who saw this scene for the first time, and the Second and Third Hokage were all shocked.

Afterwards, the Second and Third Hokage followed Mito-hime's gaze towards the Kusagakure girl trapped in the sealing barrier, and they both understood the reason.

At this time, the Kusanagi girl named Karin was deeply attracted by the appearance of Mito-hime and could not take her eyes off the red-haired girl.

Although the other party's surging chakra seemed particularly shocking because of anger, she could feel a long-lost warmth.

She hadn't experienced this feeling for a long time.

"Mom..." Karin called silently in her heart.

Recalling the scene of her mother's death, Karin couldn't help but choke up in her throat.

"Child, can you come over and help us finish this question?" Even though she was filled with anger, Mito-hime still spoke to Karin in the same gentle tone as she did to Naruto: "The situation of the girl with cherry blossom hair is very urgent. We need to find the answer as soon as possible."

"..." Karin agreed and slowly walked towards Mitohime.

Lingbo stood up tremblingly and walked with difficulty towards the mysterious rune carved by Haruno Sakura.

Because of the strange incident just now, this time, Uchiha Sasuke was more alert. While trying his best to resist the invasion of the sealing power on his consciousness, he pulled out a magic thorn. As long as the opponent showed any abnormal behavior, he could launch a counterattack instantly!

Lingbo stared at the vortex water mirror outside the barrier with a sharp gaze. The chakra there was as warm and vast as a mother's love. She was born with a strong talent for sensing chakra and could use her body to sense the flow of magical energy in the surrounding environment. Therefore, she knew how eager the people outside were to help the girl with pink hair.

This made her both envious and jealous.

then……

Just as she was about to approach the runes, Lingbo suddenly turned around and walked towards Haruno Sakura!

Uchiha Sasuke and others: "?!"

---

"clang!"

Sasuke's magic thorn pierced the ground in front of Lingbo's feet.

Lingbo was startled. At this moment, she was still a little green and naive, and she had been oppressed by the ninjas of the Land of Grass. She did not expect that Uchiha Sasuke, who had just saved her, would suddenly attack her.

She quickly waved her hands, and since she couldn't speak, she could only use rich body language to try her best to convey her intentions.

When Sasuke saw this, he discovered that the other party showed a slender arm covered with teeth marks in order to prove her innocence. Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood her.

After a moment's silence, Sasuke nodded, and Lingbo continued to approach Haruno Sakura timidly.

Sakura looked quite weak at this moment. She sat on the grass and gasped for breath. The blood flowing from the wound on her calf was extremely dark in color.

Lingpo brought a spot on his arm with fewer teeth marks to Haruno Sakura's lips.

Sakura naturally understood her intention, but Konoha's teachings made it difficult for her to accept this method. Mistaking Lingbo for being disgusted by dirt, she lifted her clothes to reveal the area with fewer teeth marks on her skin.

This action made Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke, as well as the outsiders Uzumaki Mizukage, Senju Tobirama, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Hatake Kakashi, Umino Iruka, the three Sand Ninja siblings, and even Uchiha Itachi hovering in the sky, all feel sad.

Especially the Whirlpool Water Mirror, the strong Whirlpool Princess' lips trembled slightly.

In the end, Sakura chose to hold Lingbo's arm and gently bite it.

A large amount of chakra flowed into her body through her lips and teeth, quickly restoring her physical strength and vitality lost by the toxins, bringing her an indescribable feeling.

Even though Sakura tried to be as gentle as possible, the teeth marks left behind still caused the red-haired girl great pain. The sight of her closing her eyes and enduring the pain also made Sakura feel guilty.

After recovering her strength, Sakura walked over again and finished writing the remaining text:

"Riddle: After the fall of the Uzushiogakure Village in the Land of Whirlpools, what was the last name of the orphan girl who drifted to the Land of Grass, the Village of Kusagakure?"

When Sakura finished writing the questions, she saw that outside the domain barrier, the Second and Third Hokage were in subtle silence, and the red-haired beauty who seemed to be very prestigious had a calm and sad expression on her face.

Among the people present, only Kakashi knew about the "Whirlpool Country", after all, his master's wife was a descendant of the Whirlpool Country.

For a moment, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Even though she was inside Konoha, Reihaku, a ninja from the Hidden Grass Village, still felt like an outsider. She tried her best to conceal her presence and secretly peeked at the red-haired woman whose chakra aura and appearance were very similar to her mother's.

However, Shui Jingji obviously did not intend to let Lingbo go.

She waved to Lingbo: "Come here, child."

“???” Lingbo raised his head and looked around, making sure that Shui Jingji was calling him over.

Haruno Sakura and Uchiha Sasuke were also stunned. They didn't know who this red-haired woman was who was respected even by the Second and Third Hokage. They didn't understand why she summoned a ninja from the Hidden Kusagakure Village after reading the problem.

Sasuke examined the question again and thought to himself, "Could this female ninja also be one of the survivors of the Uzushiogakure who ended up in Kusagakure?!"

Seeing Lingbo's shrinking appearance, Shui Jing felt even more distressed. He squatted down and asked, "Can you tell me your name?"

Lingbo thought for a moment, picked up a dead branch, and wrote his name -

"Amber."

"What a nice name. Who gave it to you?"

"Mother."

"Is your mother still in the Kusagakure Village?" If the answer is yes, Mizukagehime will immediately arrange a mission to bring her back to Konoha.

"He's dead."

"..."

Everyone present expressed their condolences in silence.

Shui Jingji sighed in her heart and then asked her, "Then do you know what your last name is?"

???

This question made Lingbo stunned.

Her name is Lingbo, and as for her last name... it seems that her mother never mentioned it...

On a mysterious continent far away, Mito was trapped in a foggy forest. Seeing the confusion on Karin's face, Mito knew that she had not yet solved the mystery of her ethnicity. "So, you don't realize which ethnic group you come from, right, Karin?" Mito smiled slightly, and before Karin responded, he continued, "Can you sense my spiritual power, the pulsating power that comes from my own ethnic group?"

"!!!"

Karin was dumbfounded, as if she had been struck by lightning. She stood still, staring at the beautiful woman with red hair outside the transparent protective wall.

'Mother……'

Karin's lips moved slightly, and the silent call revealed her surprise, but this would not be counted as any answer.

"Well, if you want to call me mom, I naturally have no objection, but..." Mito smiled a little awkwardly: "I'm afraid my granddaughter is old enough to be your grandmother."

At this moment, in a strange fighting arena far away from here, Tsunade-ji, the descendant of the first generation who was dominating the whole arena, suddenly shuddered, "Who is talking about me? Could it be that some force got the news and came to collect the debt?!"

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, who had just been called "brother" by some naive person, remained silent.

Sakura, Sasuke, Iruka and the others were also stunned.

This beautiful woman in front of me looks so young, how could she be older than the Third Hokage?

However, what is even more surprising is that there is also a Second-generation Hokage, Tobirama Senju, who is called "Brother" by Naruto!

Karin looked at Princess Mito outside the barrier and was sure that she was not teasing her. But then, all those who did not know the identity of this red-haired beauty received a shocking news:

"Would you please answer my question to end this Q&A session?"

Princess Mito smiled widely, and continued in the midst of everyone's astonishment: "There are still many secrets waiting to be revealed about my country of whirlpools, the Hidden Uzushio Village, and our clan's bloodline abilities and unique ninjutsu. I will teach them all to you in the future."

"you……"

"Oh, speaking of the elites of my tribe, they can even control and seal the tailed beasts." Uzumaki Mito changed the subject with a hint of cunning, "In this way, Karin, you don't have to worry about being bullied anymore."

Everyone once again focused on the word "you". Besides Karin, who else would be included?

At the same time, they were surprised to think - how powerful was the ninja family that sealed the tailed beasts alone to bring about such a catastrophic disaster?

In fact, it was the Uzumaki clan's powerful sealing technique and other extraordinary abilities that made other clans fear them. In the end, many countries united the forces of many clans and launched an invasion war against the Whirlpool Country. After the demise of the Whirlpool Country, some of the survivors of the Uzumaki Village changed their names and scattered around the world.

Karin's mother is one of them.

"Karin, if your mother never told you your last name, let me tell you." Uzumaki Mito was ready to reveal the answer.

At this moment, everyone, including Sakura and Sasuke, became inexplicably nervous for some reason.

Princess Mito spoke slowly: "Your name is Karin, your full name is Uzumaki Karin."

"!!!" Sakura and Sasuke were stunned for a moment.

There was only one member of the Uzumaki clan that they were familiar with, and that was the orphan from Konohagakure—Uzumaki Naruto, their team 7 teammate...

Chapter 81

Karin learned her last name for the first time. She stared at the beautiful woman in front of her with the same hair color as her.

She repeated her name: "Uzumaki... Karin...? My name is Uzumaki Karin?"

Princess Mito nodded in affirmation: "Yes, that is the surname of the Uzumaki Village in the Land of Whirlpools. As for the family emblem..." She pointed to Kakashi who was wearing a jonin vest, "The red vortex pattern on the back of the Konoha ninja jonin vest is exactly the emblem of our Uzumaki clan."

Kakashi understood Mito-hime's hint and immediately turned around to let Karin and the others see the red vortex symbol on the back of his jonin vest.

Sakura, Sasuke, and Gaara were all stunned: "!!!"

The Uzumaki... clan...?!

They all looked at the golden-haired boy who was unconscious and being carried by Iruka.

Could it be that this woman is...

Sasuke wondered in his heart, could she be the one mentioned in his mother's image - Kushina?

A beautiful misunderstanding thus arises.

At this moment, a mechanical voice broke the silence at the scene.

【Answer... Correct.】

Karin had some doubts before, but now she completely believes it.

She is really a member of the Uzumaki family, her name is Uzumaki Karin, and she is a descendant of the Uzumaki Village in the Land of Whirlpools.

[Congratulations on winning reward 1——]

[No sacrifice required - Sealing Technique: Seal All Corpses - Right to use once.]

As Karin looked at her in surprise, a string of white beads appeared out of thin air before her eyes, then quickly drilled into her forehead and disappeared, as if they had never existed.

Uzumaki Mito, who knew the power of the advanced ninjutsu called Shikigami Seal, was also shocked. Someone actually found a way to turn the sealing technique into a disposable consumable!

Just when everyone thought the first reward had been distributed, the mechanical voice sounded again:

[Since the answer was correct at one time, Reward 1 was upgraded to Reward 1 Encrypted Version]

[You have obtained the encrypted version of reward 1——]
