Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed? Chapter 70
Advertisement
While everyone in the exam space and shinobi world was in shock, Uzumaki Naruto suddenly took Hinata's small hand and pushed the crowd away, stepping up to the front.
Because their batch of ninja school students all graduated early, not to mention class placement, they didn't even have time to take their graduation exams.
But even if he had no practical experience, he still knew the weight of the Fourth Raikage's words.
To be honest, he was actually a bit tempted.
After all, the Raikage's identity was similar to that of the Hokage, which he had always wanted to be.
If he was born in Kumogakure, he was sure he would often say, 'I'm going to be a Raikage!'
But...
"No!"
Uzumaki Naruto's head shook like a rattle. He looked to the Fourth Raikage, Ay, "I can't promise you that."

Everyone was surprised by the decisiveness in Uzumaki Naruto's words. Some were jealous and wanted to take his place.
'What aren't you satisfied with?'
'You can't make the Raikage take back his words!'
'Besides, weren't you angry with Konoha just now. Why pull back now?'
'Did Uzumaki Naruto naively think that Konoha's people would change their attitude towards him after hearing him say this?'
Just as everyone was surprised by Naruto's decisiveness, Naruto's voice then rang out:
"The ninja school taught me that you Raikages inherit your names. If I become a Raikage, they would only know me as Sixth Raikage, Ay, and no one would know me as Uzumaki Naruto!"
Silence...
Complete silence...
Pffft~
No one knew who was the first to lose composure and laughed.
Then, as if it was contagious, it quickly infected the whole exam space and the whole shinobi world.
Upon seeing Naruto's unhesitating refusal, everybody thought that it would be some kind of earth-shattering reason.
In the end...
'That was it?'
"Hahahaha, he's definitely that number one reckless in the Shinobi World List."
"Heh, the Sixth Raikage position was rejected because of a name ..."
Even Nagato, at the moment he heard Uzumaki Naruto, chuckled a bit.
He thought of a few questions he had done himself, and he couldn't wait to test Naruto:

'Come on, let me give you a pen. What is the most annoying thing in the Fourth Raikage's heart?'
'Hahaha.'
Uzumaki Nagato's heart was amused. Uzumaki Naruto was increasingly pleasing to his eye.
After suffering hardships and enduring loneliness and temptation, he was still as warm as the sun.
The main thing was that he had a one-track mind!
Wasn't this exactly what he had been looking for in the best evangelist, who could inherit his ideas?
As long as he taught him to be as cold as ice to his enemies, he was the most natural leader for a modern mind.
As for whether Naruto would accept this proper and magnificent idea, to Nagato, this wasn't a problem at all.
He could accept it himself. As long as he gave himself and Naruto some time, it wasn't a problem at all!
Thinking about it, he looked at the Fourth Raikage, who had an unusually rich expression.
At that moment, Ay's face changed several times, and finally, the various feelings turned into a faint sigh.
He didn't expect that Uzumaki Naruto, a seemingly honest kid, would be so good at humiliating people!
He rejected him because of a name...
How was this different from proposing and being told, 'Sorry, I'm not interested in being in any kind of relationship'?
"Humph!"
The Fourth Raikage grunted, and his eyes closed straight away.
...
"Our group's answer is Ebizō."
The one who spoke was once again Terumī Mei, with a hint of envy and sadness implied in her beautiful eyes.
She envied the courage of the Fourth Raikage. He dared to offer the position of Sixth Raikage to Uzumaki Naruto.
In Terumī Mei's view, this was something that should be earned!
It's important to know that the Fourth Hokage would be resurrected in the future. If he knew that the village he had laid down his life for didn't take good care of the son he left behind...
That would certainly be a mess!
Not to mention Naruto's so-called Sage Mode.
As for sadness, she was mourning the misfortune of Kirigakure.
Kirigakure couldn't compete!
She also wanted to get Uzumaki Naruto!

But she had nothing. Kirigakure had nothing to offer!
There was nothing!
...
In the exam space, the right to answer changed again. This time it was Iwagakure's turn.
In an instant, all eyes fell on Deidara, both inside and outside the exam space.
"No, our brown group won't answer this question, pass! Pass!"
While speaking, Ōnoki stared at Deidara for fear that he would give out another correct answer.
At the moment, Kurotsuchi was still holding Deidara's mouth, which they had agreed to do. Kurotsuchi was ready when the right to answer was in the purple group.
In order to prevent Deidara from struggling violently, Ōnoki asked the Iwa shinobi behind him to help Kurotsuchi suppress the guy.
The right to answer continued to turn and the brown light had just dispersed. When Kurotsuchi let go of Deidara, Deidara exploded!
"Ahhhhhh! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! "
But in the face of Deidara's anger, the Iwagakure shinobi group was surprisingly calm, and one even looked at Deidara with a smile.
Kurotsuchi looked at the angry blue veins on Deidara's face and couldn't help but run her fingers over them. There was a powerful touch on her fingertips.
"Kurotsuchi, stay away from Deidara. He's messing with Akatsuki."
Ōnoki's eyes were full of admiration, "It seems that Deidara has his own plans!"
Hearing her grandfather's words, Kurotsuchi was startled once again. 'Deidara... has seen further and planned further?'
She looked at her grandfather with admiration. 'Too powerful!' She didn't even see it, but her grandfather saw it!
She looked at Deidara admiringly. If her grandfather hadn't woken her up, she would never have thought that Deidara was pretending.
"Quick, everyone act fierce and scared. Deidara is trying to confuse the rest of Akatsuki. Everyone cooperate."
"Humph! Deidara, how could my Iwagakure be afraid of you?"
"Ah ~ I'm so scared ~"
"Ah ~Deidara~, don't kill me ~"
...
Above, looking at the "unbelievably angry" Deidara and the weird acting from Iwa shinobi, Nagato shook his head, 'Deidara is still too young.'
'What did they think of me?'
'Am I such a stingy person?'
He had learned the saying: 'Being able to use capable people is a skill; being able to use a villain is a talent!'
He wasn't even afraid of using Uzumaki Naruto. So, even if Deidara was a spy from Iwagakure, what about it?
'As long as you have talent, I'll use you!'
'Why so pretentious?'
...
"Chiyo, the answer to this question ..."
Baki was sweating a little as he looked at the countdown. This was the sixth question. Right now, Iwagakure had answered three questions correctly and would be able to pass the exam. Konoha had one question, and only three questions were left.
If they didn't get it right this time, the chances of success in the make-up exam were next to nothing!
But the problem was ...
The three answers that could be answered had already been answered!
'Could we still answer Pakura?'
'Like the Fourth Hokage? Resurrected, and then becoming the Fifth Kazekage?'
Baki was already flustered.
Bang... bang... bang...
Not far away, the sound of Gaara still smacking around the Ichibi came up from time to time. Although it seemed that Gaara's physical strength was exhausted and his speed slowed down, it still made people feel scared.
But at that moment, the more Baki heard this sound, the more annoyed he was.
He was about to reprimand Gaara when he heard a faint voice above his head.
"Then, answer Gaara."
"Nani!?"
Baki was shocked, 'Gaara, as the Fifth Kazekage?'
'Are you kidding me? Gaara as the Fifth Kazekage?'
'Are you fu...'
'I'm ... on live broadcast...'
Malicious words passed through his heart, but Baki's greatest strength was his obedience.
"The Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure is Gaara."
After saying that, Baki waited for the answer privileges to disappear, but soon, to his dismay, he found...
The right to answer the questions was still there!
"What the hell..."
At this moment, Baki was shocked.
Cold sweat broke out on his back and instantly penetrated his clothes.

Apocalypse at Mighty Max
God sold us out and the world ended... well, sort of. God may have sold us, or at least, our universe but our world didn't end. Instead, the new owners decided to play, and we all know what that means: Monsters, a System, Magic, Cultivation, and, of course, two new moons! Thanks for reading! I appreciate the interest. This is a rough draft and is intended to flesh out some ideas for a novel that I had. Maybe figure out if I want to do this author thing, you know? If you want immediately OP MCs, fights every chapter, a harem, this is not the story for you. Sorry about that. If you're willing to put up with a long growth curve, an MC that doesn't know what he's doing most of the time but is trying his best both to survive and to help his friends survive, you might enjoy the story. I'm just trying to have fun, maybe create something that in a second draft I can sell on the eBook market. If you're not into that, not into providing helpful comments for revisions, hey, that's cool, but do us both a favor and stop reading now. ** Oh, release schedule For the first weeks, I'll be releasing a chapter (1800-3000 words) a day. Following that, I'll be releasing whenever the mood strikes me. If I get some feedback, the mood might strike me more often, hint! hint!
8 205Embrace the Blade [Drafts 1&2]
James Ransom grew up unable to do the simplest of life’s tasks. Legs were malformed; he was in a wheel chair as long as he could remember. Suffering from a severe form of muscular exhaustion making him unable to use his hands for long despite his resolve to fight through it. All the challenges facing him he still was able to enjoy reading and video games; but a tragic car accident will change his life forever and perhaps he will be given the opportunity to reincarnate into another world. Special thanks to Mikaelle for the Synopsis. This is my first book/fic so constructive critisism would be very nice. Expect a lot of grammatical errors but hopefully not too many spelling errors. Explanation for the tags; Action/Adventure/Fantasy: These don't really need an explanation, Comedy: I'll try to be funny hopefully I won't fail miserably, Romance: I like romantic sub-plots, LitRPG: No explanation needed but I am using my own system, Reincarnation/Summoned Hero: Not sure which one applies here I'm inclined to think both so I put both, Reader Interactive: I put this one here for my own amusment I'll allow everyone to help create the MC's love interest and maybe a few other things we will also hold a few contests.. Male Lead: self explanitory, Magic: Also easy, Strong Lead: Think of this as more of a weak-to-strong tag the MC will be OP but not till later in the story. Warning: Since this fic is labeled as 'Strategy' I believe that the readers should know as much as possible about the situations presented in the story so they can reach their own conclusions about how a fight could have been won or lost. That means: there are a lot of information dumps early on. I don't know how long I'll be able to write this fic but I promise to keep my few readers informed in case I decide to drop it or something.

Even better in her view many were atheists and due to the rapidly expanding population many of those were brand new souls. So without further ado she soulnapped one hundred of them for her cliques experiment. This is the story of one of the randomly selected beings, a sixteen year old girl with anger management issues, in fact Mary Silvestre has been diagnosed a borderline psychopath by a lazy school system.
