Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

"Shit, you crazy woman! I haven't even touched him yet!"

Hundreds of meters away, Kurama got up and swore. He didn't know how this woman was resurrected, but he still needed to act timid.

He wasn't a stupid tanuki, not to mention Akatsuki, these terrible guys, but this inexplicably resurrected woman alone could suppress his existence.

So, though full of anger, he still couldn't show his true heart.

He could only curse under his breath.

The difference in the Kyūbi made Uzumaki Kushina flabbergasted. She was ready to fire up her anger at the Kyūbi, so that Naruto could see his mother's bravery. Unexpectedly...

The Kyūbi actually wimped out?

Seeing Kurama swearing and running to the head of another little girl with red hair and glasses, Uzumaki Kushina's eyes suddenly lit up.

'The little red-haired girl...'

'An Uzumaki clan member?'

'Was this the wife Naruto found for himself?'

'Yes, the same aesthetics as his stupid father.'

'You have lied to a little girl since you were a child. Would he change after he grows up?'

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes scanned up and down at Uzumaki Karin. As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she becomes.

...

But at that moment, Uzumaki Karin was about to cry.

She was scared to death right now!

It's not enough to have a vicious and horrible monster on her head, she still had a fierce woman staring at her!

Her face was cracked, and she didn't look like a living person at all. She stared at her as if she was going to eat her...

'What sins have I committed?'

Uzumaki Karin unwillingly shed tears.

...

"You, stinky fox, go lie down on the side!"

Thinking that her daughter-in-law had been wronged, Uzumaki Kushina pointed at him, causing the Kyūbi, who had just plopped down, to freeze.

Then he stood up helplessly, shook his head, and jumped to the top of Hyūga Hinata's head.

Just before he stood firm, he was caught by a pair of small hands, held in a death grip.

"A woman... a woman..."

"A woman is hugging Naruto-kun..."

"It's not me... Um... It's not me..."

"... if she's dead ... does that count?"

Listening to the murmur, like a devil whispering in his ear, Kurama inexplicably shivered.

'This complaint... it's staggering!'

Hinata's clean white eyes stared at the odd woman hugging Naruto with a deadly stare. But before she turned hostile, what happened next made her almost faint with shame.

...

She saw the woman turn back around and slap the frozen Naruto on the back of the head with a smack.

"Call me mom!"

"Mom!"

Smack!

"Call me again!"

"Mom!"

Smack!

"Why don't you take care of yourself?"

"Didn't I tell you, don't be picky about food, eat more, and grow up quickly. Remember to take a bath on time every day, take a bath to warm up, don't stay up late, and make sure you sleep..."

At some point, Uzumaki Kushina couldn't go on.

Her voice was getting lower and lower, her speech was getting slower and slower, her eyes were obviously unusually swollen, but she couldn't cry.

She held Uzumaki Naruto in her arms, and her voice was full of remorse:

"Naruto, I'm sorry."

Uzumaki Naruto hadn't reacted to the shock until now. Even the 'mom' he called out was an instinctive reaction from his body.

From the moment he was put down by this woman, from the moment this woman finished the first sentence, he froze.

A word that he never called someone with but appeared in his mind countless times. It once again appeared in his thoughts and then filled his whole mind.

'Mom...'

Uzumaki Naruto didn't know why; this woman, who obviously had no heat in her body, gave him a warm feeling.

He also didn't know... why his heart was angry, wanting to push the woman away, and loudly ask her why she didn't appear in so many years? But he was gently embraced by this woman; his anger turned into grievances.

He wanted to cry.

"You're my Mom?"

Smack!

"Do you know a man named Hatake Kakashi?"

"I don't know."

"Jiraiya?"

"Mom, are you talking about the Sannin Jiraiya?"

"Do you know him?"

"I don't know."

"Uh ..."

Uzumaki Kushina paused. She thought her son would know Jiraiya.

"Let's go, come with me to Konoha. I'll make them pay for this!"

Uzumaki Kushina pulled Uzumaki Naruto and was about to leave. The six Pains were about to stop her, but to their surprise, Uzumaki Naruto stopped her first.

"Mom, I haven't finished my class yet ..."

Uzumaki Kushina froze and then realized that a group of people was looking over at Uzumaki Naruto's position just now, with curious faces.

"Uh..."

"Haha, hello guys, I'm Uzumaki Naruto's mom, Kushina."

Uzumaki Kushina waved awkwardly and then asked Naruto in a low voice, "Who are these people?"

"They're my rivals! Nagato Aniki said that when I learn these things, I can go back to Konoha and become Hokage!"

"They are all my rivals, and I want to do better than them! I want to be Hokage!"

"Mom, I have to be Hokage!"

"Uh ..."

Uzumaki Kushina was covered with black lines. Before she could digest Naruto's words, she watched Naruto throw off her hand and rush back to his original position, and sat down.

At Pain's urging, the others reluctantly sat back down, and Asura Path started playing the video again.

In the same place, only a shocked Uzumaki Kushina was left in the wind.

　　.....

3 days flew by as Naruto happily studied.

3 days wasn't long, but it wasn't short either.

It enabled Uzumaki Nagato and Uchiha Fugaku to reach an initial consensus on cooperation, allowing Uchiha Fugaku to move and bring back a hundred Uchiha clan members.

It also enabled the Akatsuki crowd to initially understand the meaning of Nagato's "a crimson future". After everyone had studied for two and a half days, Nagato himself came up with a set of test papers.

To everyone's surprise:

Uzumaki Naruto and Uzumaki Kushina tied for first place with 99 points.

Uchiha Sasuke and Kurotsuchi also almost tied for the top spot, only lacking 11 points.

It was worth mentioning that Deidara, who Nagato had high hopes for...

Got 38 points.

...

Now, there were still 5 minutes to go before the survival exam.

At the square of Amegakure, everyone who had the examination qualifications were standing together, waiting for the call of the exam space.

Figures wearing a red cloud robe on a black background stood here. At Nagato's request, even Haku and Ryuji had Akatsuki's robe on.

In Pain's words: Akatsuki's people should look like Akatsuki's people!

Uchiha Sasuke's eyes glanced at Uzumaki Naruto with their scarlet glow.

At the moment, to Uzumaki Naruto's left was Hyūga Hinata, who was blushing with her head down; to his right, was Uzumaki Karin, who was getting special attention from Uzumaki Kushina.

Uzumaki Kushina knelt on one knee, at the same height as the three youngsters in front of her, and patiently advised them.

"This is a survival exam, so try to stay alive as long as you can."

"I've 'talked' to the rest of Akatsuki, and they will try to take care of you when they see you, so don't worry. If they don't do it, I'll clean them up when they get out."

"Also, this exam is just an ordinary exam, so don't take it too seriously and relax."

"I believe you guys will achieve good results."

"And, Naruto, don't be a hero."

"And ..."

Retracting his gaze, Sasuke suppressed the deep envy in his eyes.

'Humph!'

'Only the weak flock together, the strong walk alone!'

Uchiha Sasuke licked his somewhat dry and cracked lips. He was now no longer the boy who opened a single hooked tomoe on the night of the clan's extermination!

He already had three tomoe now!

With a glint of hatred in his eyes, he was sure that the guy would also come to the exam.

He was going to kill that man in this exam!

As the countdown on the token came to an end, all those with exam qualifications suddenly found that they had appeared in an unfamiliar location.

Immediately afterward, an exclusive holographic screen popped up in front of each examinee.

[Extended version survival exam has started.]

[Exam Panel: Loaded.]

[Map Selection: Wilderness Combat.]

[Selected Chosen One: Might Guy.]

[Current remaining examinees: 99; one absent.]

At the same time, the live screen appeared again in front of everyone.

This time, unlike in the past, the screen in front of everyone was divided into one hundred squares. The people who watched the live broadcast, like God, looked down on every examinee.
