Naruto's Exam

As night fell in the city, loud "bang bang bang" noises were suddenly heard in a high-end apartment, making the glass windows buzz.

"What's going on?!" A man in a suit, Naruto, hid behind Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura, very nervous.

Sasuke was full of disdain, secretly mocking himself in his heart: "Humph, this guy is still so cowardly!"

Sakura frowned, clenched her fist and bit her lower lip: "Naruto, what's wrong with you?!"

In the center of the room, a fine solid wooden box replaced the previous object, making an unsettling thumping sound.

"Hey! What's going on?!" A man in black, Uchiha Obito, couldn't help but ask.

Why is there someone in the coffin? Isn't this a resurrection spell? How could a living person be locked in there?

But if Obito thought about it for a while, he might be able to guess the answer: the forbidden ninjutsu of the Second Hokage - Impure World Reincarnation!

---

"Bang, bang, bang," the sound of heavy objects hitting each other came from the coffin, causing panic among the onlookers. Some guards drew out their daggers to prevent any accidents.

"Hey——!!" A voice roared from inside the coffin, shocking the people around.

Then, a scream came from the coffin: "A Fei! Is that you? You have also been resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation?!"

The masked man Afei was silent, Pein and Konan had no expression on their faces, Itachi was confused, and the Tsuchikage Ohnoki was horrified: "!!!"

"Ah, did my ultimate art harm you?!" Deidara shouted in the coffin, "I'm sorry, I didn't kill Sasuke, but killed you by mistake!"

Sasuke became the focus. He angrily stuck out his blond head and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about! Why do you want to blow up Sasuke?!"

The voice inside the coffin was a little hesitant: "This voice... is a little familiar."

"Hey! You are the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, right? Hmm!"

This "hmm" gave Uchiha Itachi and other members of the Akatsuki organization or former Akatsuki members the answer.

"Deidara...?" Obito couldn't believe it.

When did Deidara die? And was he resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation? What about Scorpion?

Ah Fei asked: "What about the Scorpion of the Red Sand? Is he dead too?"

Upon hearing this, the representative of Sand Village, Akasha, was shocked: "!!!!"

"Hey! Masked man!" Chisha stepped forward quickly, "Do you know Scorpion? Little Scorpion, is my son okay?!"

Obito was confused by the series of unexpected events!

Deidara couldn't stand the depression in the coffin, and happened to hear the topic of interest, so he decisively-

“Art is… snap!!!”

"Bang--!!"

This explosion was more shocking than when the Second Hokage pushed open the coffin lid. The wooden board flew out, and the reincarnated Deidara appeared. He looked at a man who looked like Scorpion, approached him and asked, "Are you Scorpion's stinky dad?!"

The people of Konoha are angry. What do they think of Konoha? Is this a family gathering of the Akatsuki organization?!

A metallic voice sounded: "Resurrection confirmed - Edo Tensei Deidara."

"!!" Tsuchikage Ohnoki: "Is it really you, Deidara?!"

People from other villages looked at the Iwagakure ninja: "Who is he? He seems to be a traitor from your village."

The Iwagakure ninja explained: "Deidara, a traitor from the Iwagakure Village, was once a disciple of the Tsuchikage-sama. Unexpectedly, he joined the Akatsuki organization..."

Uchiha Itachi is the most complicated one, after all, it was he who made Deidara join Akatsuki.

After Deidara was resurrected by the huge Wood Release Chakra of the Edo Tensei Senju Tobirama, Itachi looked at the living Deidara and asked: "Deidara, how did you die? What does it have to do with Sasuke?"

"Ah! Uchiha Itachi!" Deidara felt disgusted as soon as he saw him. If it weren't for Itachi, he could still be a free artist!

As for the cause of death, he didn't want to mention it! It would be fine if he died with Sasuke, but he died and Sasuke didn't understand his ultimate art. It's too embarrassing to say it out!

Scorpion and that bastard Ah Fei will laugh to death!

He avoided Itachi and turned to Pein: "Eh? The leader is here too? And Konan and Afei, are they going to launch a full-scale attack on Konoha?!"

Deidara was excited and ready to show off his art.

"Wait, Deidara." Pein said in a deep voice.

"Eh! Why? Leader?" Deidara asked in confusion, "By the way, I think something is wrong right now, huh."

"Hey, Afei, let me ask you, how is the ninja alliance doing? Who won the Fourth Ninja World War?"

Obito Uchiha: "..." If he said the Fourth Ninja World War hadn't started yet, would you believe him?

Deidara's mention of the Allied Ninja Forces and the Fourth Ninja World War shocked and confused everyone, especially Sasuke. What did this guy just say?

"Hey, Deidara over there, I want to ask you--"

Before Sasuke could finish his words, Deidara instinctively launched ten pieces of "art" straight towards Sasuke!

Sasuke: "!!!"

How could the current Genin Sasuke be a match for the Blue Dragon Deidara of the Akatsuki organization!

"Sasuke!" Itachi's Samsara Eye instantly opened, "Amaterasu!!"

As soon as the white clay left Deidara's hand, it was burned by black flames, and the series of explosions was deafening.

Because Sasuke was closer to Deidara, he was safe and sound, but Deidara was unfortunately affected by his own "art".

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Deidara was furious, "I really hate you Uchiha! Hmm!"

"Oh, right!" He turned to the masked man, "A Fei, how did you escape? Under my ultimate art 'C0·Self-destruction', it is impossible to escape, huh."

"Are you in a resurrected state now? Tell me, how did I come back to life?"

Although he didn't know what "this Deidara" had experienced, Pain could roughly guess that the other party might come from the world in the image.

"His skill is penetration. Any attack will be ineffective when he activates the Mangekyō Sharingan."

Since the plan has completely gone out of control, the Moon Eye Plan is no longer as important as Konan's comfort in Pain's eyes, so there is nothing wrong with telling Deidara the truth, including that the 'Afei' he mentioned is actually the real leader behind the Akatsuki organization.

Deidara was stunned: "Mangekyo Sharingan? But, isn't it only the Uchiha family that has this kind of eyes?"

Seeing Deidara instantly turn on the "Afei mode", the masked man covered his "face" and shook: "Senior! Afei has never denied that he is not Uchiha~ But senior always says that he hates Uchiha, which makes Afei very sad~"

Payne: “…”

Kakashi: "..."

Konoha and other ninja villages: "..."

Naruto leaned in and asked Sasuke: "Is he the real Uchiha Madara? He doesn't look like you at all?"

Sasuke roared: "Do you think you can be even remotely similar to the God of Ninja Realm?! You piece of shit!"

"What did you say?! You bastard Sasuke, you called me trash again!"

"Not convinced? Want to fight?!"

"Okay! Let's fight!"

Senju Tobirama looked embarrassed: "It's not that you don't have some similarities with Big Brother and Madara."

"Eh?! What?!!!" Naruto suddenly became excited.

Sasuke was also quite interested. Although he didn't like being compared to Uchiha Madara, he felt that the opponent must be very powerful.

"Naruto's clumsiness is even greater than that of his elder brother, Sasuke. You are also similar to Madara in that you are easily deceived."

Shikamaru saw the surprised expressions on Naruto and Sasuke's faces, and thought that he had seen people with sharp tongues before, but it was probably rare to find someone as straightforward as the Second Hokage.

This completely subverts the image of the first Hokage and his opponent!

Deidara, who had just been resurrected, seemed a little confused. Before he had time to ask about his condition, the video started again!

"Eh hey hey?!! What is this?!" Deidara looked at the image that suddenly appeared with a look of surprise on his face.

Ah Fei came over and said, "Eh? Senior, you don't know this either? You are so ignorant."

"......" Deidara: "Believe it or not, I will blow you to death! Yeah!"

"Deidara, be quiet." Pein spoke, and Deidara obeyed.

Finding a place far away from the Uchiha, that is, standing behind Pein and Konan, Deidara and a group of old fans began to watch the video -

[The image shows a dark underground space with spiral stairs extending downwards, deep and bottomless.]

[On a cross-shaped bridge, twenty ninjas were kneeling in front of an old man, each wearing a mask similar to that of the Anbu.]

"It's Danzo! Yes, it's him!!"

“Danzo-sama…” He felt that such a person was no longer worthy of being called an adult, and the last word “person” was swallowed back.

"So, the place in the image is the 'root'?!"

“Well, I think so.”

[“This means that Tsunade’s era will come to an end.”]

As soon as Danzo opened his mouth, many people were shocked!

In the previous images, Lady Tsunade appeared as the fifth Hokage!

The end of Tsunade's era means...

Jiraiya's face darkened, and he thought to himself: What on earth did this guy Danzo do? Or what is he going to do? ! !

The thought that he might have intervened in the Nine-Tails Rebellion made Jiraiya's anger difficult to subside. After all, it was at that time that Minato's family...

[Shimura Danzo ordered the Root ninjas: "We will hide underground until the commotion above subsides."]

"..."

[“Danzo-sama,” a Root ninja asked, “Should we go to help them too? Even if you, Danzo-sama, lead us alone, if Konoha, if the village disappears, then the meaning of the Root will no longer exist, right?”]

Regardless of the significance of the existence of "roots", everyone understands the principle of "the lips and teeth are interdependent".

But Danzo didn’t understand, or perhaps his mindset didn’t allow him to understand.

In the video, Danzo said:

[“Even if Princess Tsunade becomes Hokage, she is just a woman! Her role is to use the Slug Jutsu to reduce casualties…”]

“Tsk—”

This made all the female ninjas...

No, to the displeasure of women and henpecked men who are watched by the whole world.

Nara Shikaku whispered to his son: "It is precisely because of this idea that Danzo is still single."

Shikamaru looked at the old face in the image, speechless.

[“Of course, there will definitely be many casualties, but that doesn’t matter. These sacrifices are necessary for me.”]

If Danzo's previous words made the female ninjas of Konoha angry, this sentence made all the ninjas of Konoha feel chilled.

Next, it’s time to reveal the answer to the previous question.

Danzo's words aroused contempt——

Danzo opened his narrow eyes, revealing a sinister light:

[“These sacrifices are necessary because——to make me the Hokage!”]

Then the image quickly moves away, revealing the entire "Root" environment, as if it were Shimura Danzo's ambition for power!

"You actually said you want to be Hokage?!"

When the masked man gave this answer, some people still didn't believe it.

Even though the horror quiz has proven that the masked man's answer is correct, people still feel that there may be some misunderstanding.

But when you really see the dark side of 'roots'.

When I saw the obsession with power in Shimura Danzo's eyes...

Senju Tobirama growled: "After the Five Kage Summit, thoroughly clean up the Root!!"

"yes!!!"

The thousand Konoha ninjas who were watching at the moment responded.

But in fact, for an old fox like Danzo, who possesses at least one Mangekyō Sharingan, the person who can really deal with him must be Senju Tobirama himself.

[In the video, let’s put aside Danzo’s affairs for now and return to the ground. Konoha, which has been madly destroyed by the giant summoned beast, is facing an unprecedented crisis! ! ]

"That summoned beast! Isn't it the three-headed dog from before?!"
