Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed? Chapter 13
Advertisement
[Option B: Uchiha Itachi, originally a Konohagakure ninja, was deceived into killing the whole clan to protect his younger brother Uchiha Sasuke and joined Akatsuki as a Konohagakure spy due to the investigation towards Uchiha Obito, who was pretending to be Uchiha Madara.]
[Option C: Six Path Pain rebelled before the Fourth Shinobi World War.]
[Option D: Uchiha Obito defected in the Fourth Shinobi War.]
Pin drop silence!
Deadly silence!
Both the crowd inside the exam space and the shinobi world outside the exam space were dead silent!
They thought that after the ravages of the previous question's analysis, they would be able to talk and laugh about the next analysis with some mental preparation.
As a result ...they had clearly overestimated themselves before!
Looking at the analysis, countless people were stunned.
Not to mention that the leader of Akatsuki was really a traitor, or Madara and Obito's mutual fondness for each other, Uchiha Itachi alone could put everyone in a daze.
Destroy the whole Uchiha clan, for Uchiha Sasuke's sake?
He even killed his parents, but it turned out that it was to protect his brother!
Was this bastard even human?
"Pt~tui!"
At the entrance of a shinobi village, a group of people spat on the ground one after another.
Their status and position didn't allow them to say anything about the spies of their own village, but their actions had already said it all.
In their opinion, the first filial son of the shinobi world shouldn't be that whatever Black Zetsu, but rather Uchiha Itachi.
'Such filial piety!'
...
"This ... this ..."
The person himself, Uchiha Itachi, was shocked when he saw that he had been deceived as if several huge hammers weighing several thousand pounds were hammering his head and heart.
In fact, he had a vague sense of foreboding when he learned that he was working with Uchiha Obito instead of Uchiha Madara.
Now ... the feeling had come true!

But he couldn't understand what went wrong!
Or where he was deceived?
Being a double agent of Konohagakure and the Uchiha clan himself, and as the heir of the Uchiha clan, no news was hidden from him within the Uchiha clan.
'If I was blinded by the Uchiha clan, does it mean that the whole clan was blinded...?'
'If that's true, doesn't that mean...'
'What was behind the destruction of the Uchiha clan?'
Itachi's heart sank.
...
"He... to protect me?"
In the hospital, Uchiha Sasuke, who just woke up, looked at the screen sorrowfully.
He now had a splitting headache, and both of his eyes were covered with red veins.
"What a joke! It must be a big joke!"
Uchiha Sasuke scoffed to his heart's content; he didn't believe it! Couldn't believe it!
But it was as if a voice in his heart was telling him that this was the truth.
"That's impossible! Impossible!"
"Ahh!"
Uchiha Sasuke huffed in anger as he held his head. Then, he fell backward.
...
"It turned out that I had betrayed."
Pain's Rinnegan power exploded, vaporizing the tears on his face as he smiled bitterly to himself.
He didn't believe that he would defect, but the exam space said so. Naturally, there would be a reason.
It was Konan, behind Pain, who turned her attention to Jiraiya, who was thinking.
The people of Akatsuki were thinking when suddenly the analysis disappeared.
Then, the next question appeared in the sky.
[Question 3: Who is Nohara Rin's real murderer among the following characters?]
[A: Hatake Kakashi.]
[B: Black Zetsu.]
[C: Uchiha Madara.]
[D: Namikaze Minato.]
'This is bad!'
Mixed in the crowd, Zetsu shuddered violently when he saw the question, followed instantly by a sharp gaze from their side.
Without even turning his head, Zetsu knew who the owner of this gaze was.
Resisting the urge to look back, the leaves on his head closed slightly as he kept silent.

He never thought that this space had things on him!
'I can't let them answer this question correctly!'
'Never let Obito see the analysis!'
With his understanding of Obito, if this guy knew that Nohara Rin's death was planned by himself and Madara, he would definitely go crazy.
He wasn't afraid of him. After all, Obito was just one of the many pawns. To be exact, he was the pawn of a pawn.
It might seem as if he was the center of this dark power, but in fact, he had nothing.
But he was absolutely afraid that the guy would go crazy in this space and pull himself to die together.
Zetsu lifted his head and looked to the sky. It was as if he wanted to see through the mist and see the landscape above it.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do it.
...
'Rin!'
'Rin!'
'Rin!'
Uchiha Obito's fingers clenched his mask with a death grip, suppressing the rage in his heart.
With the first two questions laid out, how could Obito not see it?
There was another story behind Rin's death!
Option A: Kakashi, Obito had witnessed it himself. That guy killed Rin with his own hands.
'But the exam space asks who the real killer was!'
'The real murderer...'
'Hatake Kakashi could only be regarded as "the" murderer, at best.'
'And Namikaze Minato was definitely not the answer!'
'So, the real answer ...'
'It's one of B or C!'
Shh... Shh... Shh...
Obito figured everything out between each heavy breath he took and stared at Zetsu with a deadly gaze. He knew that Zetsu must know something.
...
"Who is Nohara Rin?"
Deidara was stunned. This question, with his level of IQ, was somewhat difficult.
"Konohagakure's kunoichi, who died in the Third Shinobi World War. Namikaze Minato's student."
Hearing Jiraiya interject, the group of people looked at Jiraiya.
"Namikaze Minato?"
Sasori asked a rhetorical question. He knew that name very well!
The number one speed of the shinobi world, the Yellow Flash, Namikaze Minato!
There wasn't a single person who survived the Third Shinobi World War and didn't know this name.
Being able to be at multiple places at the same time.
When anyone went against Namikaze Minato from Konohagakure, they could abandon their mission without penalty.
This showed how that name had dominated in that period.
"In other words, this woman is a student of the Fourth Hokage?"
Konan's cold voice rang out, causing the crowd to notice the uniqueness of this Nohara Rin gradually.
"Yes."
Jiraiya smiled bitterly but didn't hide it.
"She, Hatake Kakashi, and Uchiha Obito are students of the Fourth Hokage."
...
"Rin!"
At the entrance of Konohagakure, an Anbu, who was in charge of public security, froze instantly when he saw the examination question.
Like a cold hand touching his spine, from his tailbone all the way up to his neck.
Making the blood in his body freeze all over.
He swayed, almost blacking out, and was about to fall but snapped awake and steadied himself.
...
"Hahaha, it turns out that the Fourth Hokage is called Namikaze Minato."
A vigorous voice rang out, and the crowd at the entrance of Konohagakure looked at the owner of the voice, and a different emotion appeared in their eyes.
There was resentment, disgust, and sympathy.
"He isn't a famous Hokage."
Uzumaki Naruto walked towards the crowd. Originally, he did not like crowded places. After all, he didn't know why, but the villagers never liked him.
But now, he was different.
He was the number one reckless shinobi of the shinobi world!
This was something that even that space recognized. How could people in the village not recognize it?
'I'm the man who will become Hokage!'
