Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

[Ignite the Dragon Veins and detonate the shinobi world. The Energy would be enough to turn the Zombie Leviathan into ash.]

Seeing the answer given by the exam space, Naruto's face suddenly showed a trace of shock. He didn't expect the method given by the exam space to be so powerful.

'Ignite the Dragon Veins, and detonate the shinobi world!'

'That's...'

Not to mention Naruto, at this moment, even Uzumaki Nagato and the others behind Naruto were stunned.

'To kill this monster, we would have to sacrifice the entire shinobi world?!'

'Who would do that?'

Uchiha Madara squinted at Otsutsuki Kaguya not far away. This kind of thing, let alone them, even Otsutsuki Toneri wouldn't be able to do.

Igniting Dragon Veins was not difficult. He could do it himself, but setting the Shinobi world ablaze was something that only Otsutsuki Kaguya could do.

"Who's Ryuji?"

Otsutsuki Kaguya felt that everyone was looking at her, and the lonely voice slowly came out. She had certain feelings for the forbearance world, and she wouldn't agree to detonate it without knowing what would happen next when Naruto took her and the others to the next world.

"He's the guy in the ark."

Naruto pointed to the World Ark above.

Kaguya looked at the floating World Ark overhead, her pair of beautiful eyes gently narrowed.

From this ship, she felt some kind of resistance.

As if it wouldn't allow her to board.

Otsutsuki Kaguya knew the origin of the ship. It was a prize awarded to Uzumaki Naruto by the exam space. So, she understood that she couldn't board the ship without Uzumaki Naruto's permission.

"What do you know about the other world?"

Otsutsuki Kaguya looked at Uzumaki Naruto. She was curious and cautious about the other world.

After all, who knew if there were monsters like that in the other world or if there were enemies like Otsutsuki Urashiki.

Hearing Otsutsuki Kaguya's inquiry, everyone instantly looked at Uzumaki Naruto, only to see Uzumaki Naruto shake his head.

Just when everyone was a little disappointed, they suddenly heard Uzumaki Naruto say:

"This Zombie Leviathan is summoning a group of Leviathans. If it's allowed to summon the Leviathan group to the shinobi world, the shinobi world will be destroyed."

Naruto's voice was faint, but it caused everyone's faces to turn pale.

They looked up in horror and looked at the distant sky. However, they couldn't even see the shadow of the Zombie Leviathan anymore.

"Naruto, did you just say it is trying to summon other Leviathans?"

Uchiha Madara's eyes were filled with fear. A single Leviathan had already caused such chaos in the shinobi world. It took a falling Moon to kill it, and it still turned into a Zombie Leviathan.

Everyone thought that since it had turned into a Zombie Leviathan, they could just wait for its flesh and blood to get depleted. But to their surprise, this Zombie Leviathan was trying to summon other Leviathans.

If other Leviathans or even a swarm of Leviathans came to their world, then the shinobi world would indeed be destroyed by those beasts, as Naruto said.

Uchiha Madara and Uzumaki Nagato knew, as Fugaku had told them, that the largest of those monsters had the size of a planet.

'This 10,000-meter-long Leviathan is just a seedling in front of that kind of Leviathan!'

"I agree."

Otsutsuki Kaguya blinked, raised her hand, and pulled Black Zetsu back into her sleeve, quietly looking at Naruto.

　　...

Three days later.

Three days went by in the blink of an eye.

In these three days, all the people in the shinobi world were moving like the Great Human Migration, with everyone doing their best to make their way to the center of the five major shinobi villages.

Naruto, Uzumaki Nagato, and the others were on the World Ark, waiting for three days to collect all the people of the shinobi world in the World Ark.

"I never thought that we would be meeting again like this."

The Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, looked at Uzumaki Kushina, who had just boarded the ark, with a warm smile on his face.

Konohagakure had been destroyed. At this moment, he was no longer Konoha's Kage. He was just Uzumaki Kushina's husband and Uzumaki Naruto's father.

"Humph."

Uzumaki Kushina gave him an unimpressed look but was relieved to see that the other party was also completely resurrected.

She thought that the corpse fluid of the beast would turn him to ashes, just like the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo.

Fortunately, the other party was still alive.

"Where's Naruto?"

Uzumaki Kushina's brow relaxed. She was about to continue talking when she suddenly saw Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Hinata not far away, flying with a glowing blue lump of iron under their feet.

"Mom! Dad!"

Arriving a few meters in front of the pair, Naruto leaped straight down from above and wrapped them in his arms. Next to him, Hyuga Hinata was looking at her hands nervously, wondering how she could join in.

Uzumaki Kushina, noticing Hinata's appearance, flickered, and in the next moment, took Hinata directly into her arms.

"Ah?"

Not far away, Hyuga Hiashi spoke softly, standing beside his wife and the newly resurrected Hyuga Hanabi.

Because the blow from the Moon was so great, those of them who were saved by Namikaze Minato and Senju Tobirama died in the impact.

But now, they were all resurrected.

It was worth mentioning that, Senju Tobirama, because he was drenched with the Zombie Leviathan fluid, his soul melted. When Black Zetsu used the reincarnation technique, he was already gone.

Therefore, he couldn't be resurrected.

Similarly, there were no other resurrected Kages from other villages that were in the Impure World Reincarnated state.

"That girl has grown up!"

Hyuga Hiashi watched Hinata run to Kushina's family and shook his head helplessly, but there was no hint of discontent on his face.

Because of their withdrawal from the battlefield, they were the second group to board the World Ark. With his position as leader of the Hyuga clan; there was some information that he naturally knew more about.

For example, this ship belonged to Naruto!

Another example was, Naruto wasn't going to let them form shinobi villages on this ship.

He even heard that Akatsuki... Ah, no, the top leaders of the Land of Shinobi and the five ex-Kages would be the ones to have a say on this ship from now on.

Originally, he tacitly agreed that Hinata and Uzumaki Naruto could start a relationship because he envisioned the boy's future achievements. After all, being able to save Konoha in that situation, and that strength, coupled with his future Hokage status, would surely ensure the position of the Hyuga clan while he was in office.

This was the direct reason why he allowed Naruto to get close to Hinata.

But now...

What else could he do?

Naruto had power now, but his position...

Hyuga Hiashi watched as a group of people swarmed in the distance, calling Uzumaki Naruto's name.

"Where's Uzumaki Naruto?"

"Naruto-sama? He saved my wife. I'm going to let him marry my daughter."

"Bah! Just that daughter of yours who can blow in a gust of wind, and you still want to marry Naruto? My daughter is 1.5m and 68kg. I'll give her to Naruto for free!"

"Oh, no wonder it's free. "

　　.....

"Father, I ..."

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Uchiha Fugaku with a gloomy look on his face.

Uchiha Izumi died because of him! Itachi was dead too!

The Leviathan also came to the shinobi world because of his deeds. A lot of people couldn't be resurrected because of him...

"The past is the past."

Uchiha Fugaku patted Sasuke on the shoulder and gently comforted him.

It's just that Sasuke didn't see the grief in Fugaku's eyes, let alone the haggard look on Mikoto's face behind Fugaku.

Both Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke, apart from their blood, weren't really close to them as much as Uchiha Izumi was.

Fugaku and Mikoto's grief over Izumi's death was even greater than the time they found out about Itachi's death.

"You have to walk this new path."

"You're strong now. Go find Naruto. You can help him. "

Uchiha Fugaku said so and turned back to Mikoto, who was carrying a large belly. They walked off into the distance; his back, for a moment, seemed to have gone through a lot of hardships.

"Fugaku."

"We have to do this..."

Mikoto looked at Fugaku with a slightly sad face. Just now, Fugaku seemed to be comforting Sasuke, but in reality, he was just pushing Sasuke towards Naruto.

"It's for his own good. "

A cold look flashed across Fugaku's face. Everyone in the shinobi world was now on this ship. In other words, Uzumaki Naruto was now the highest centralized authority in the shinobi world.

Except for Uzumaki Naruto, no one else had the authority to throw people off the World Ark.

As far as he knew, not only the big clans of Konoha but clans from the other shinobi villages were trying to get close to Uzumaki Naruto in every way possible.

He even heard that Otsutsuki Kaguya left Black Zetsu at the central bridge as a strategist.

Otsutsuki Kaguya's reason was also simple: 'In the future, facing an unfamiliar world, Black Zetsu's strategy and resourcefulness are better than anyone in the shinobi world. Naruto, you can ask him anything.'

After saying that, Otsutsuki Kaguya left without looking back.

Uzumaki Naruto hesitated, but there was no way to refute it.

Black Zetsu had the ability to use anyone in the shinobi world as a pawn.

In front of him, not to mention Senju Tsunade, the General Council of the Allied Shinobi Forces, even Konoha's Nara clan, plus the strategist of the other shinobi villages, were no match for him!

So Black Zetsu was inexplicably shoved in. Not to mention Uzumaki Naruto, even Uzumaki Nagato couldn't do anything about it.

It was absolute!

Taking everyone who came to Konoha into the ark, Uzumaki Naruto took control of the World Ark and sailed to the next gathering point -- Sunagakure.

"Where's Ryuji?"

Appearing in the bridge room with Uzumaki Kushina, Hinata, and Minato, Uzumaki Naruto glanced around. He felt confused when he didn't see the guy there.

Then immediately realized that the other party, mysterious and unpredictable, with a part of the authority over the World Ark, had hidden somewhere on the ship. He really couldn't find him.

After all, this World Ark was bigger than the shinobi world ever was.

Not to mention it could accommodate all the living creatures in the shinobi world. It could even accommodate more than that.

The World Ark was very fast and could arrive at Sunagakure in 10 minutes.

At the moment, in Sunagakure, a large number of people were already gathered.

Despite the increasingly harsh conditions in Sunagakure, with the shelter from Suna shinobi, these people arrived in Sunagakure safely.

Not only humans, but some summoned beasts also came to Sunagakure.

They spoke out and begged the shinobi in Sunagakure to give them a chance to survive.

Some of them were extremely large, and at a glance, you can tell that they were exceedingly strong, but they were acting really humble right now.

At this moment, with the arrival of the World Ark, all kinds of summoned beasts eagerly looked at the World Ark.

The environment of the shinobi world was getting worse and worse, and it was no longer suitable for survival. They knew that their future was in Uzumaki Naruto's hands.

Their lives were at Uzumaki Naruto's mercy.

But to their surprise, with the arrival of the World Ark, a ramp reached down directly from the ship and reached them.

Then, a series of figures ran down from the ship and spontaneously stood in two rows on both sides of the ramp, just like guards.

Just when everyone thought that some high-ranking person would step down, the group of shinobi directly spoke to the countless people below, "All of you will board the ship in an orderly manner. Once you have registered on board, you will be led to your accommodation. "

"All summoned beasts, while onboard, must abide by the rules, and no fighting is allowed. Otherwise, they will be expelled from the ship. "

As the voice dropped, the figures began to walk in an orderly manner.

On the ship, these people finally saw the vastness of the World Ark!

Before they could close their wide opened mouths, someone came and took them away to be identified and documented.

Soon, everyone in Sunagakure had boarded the ship, and under the reluctant gaze of the Suna people, the World Ship jumped straight ahead and flew off towards Kirigakure.

Soon, everyone from the five major villages was on the ship. It was worth mentioning that the toads of Mount Myoboku, the snakes of Ryuchi Cave, and Tsunade's slugs from Shikkotsu Forest also dropped their feuds and boarded the ship from the shinobi villages.

Naruto paid special attention to the fact that Gamamaru and the White Snake Sage didn't board the ship along with the toad swarm and the snake seethe.

They had made their choice.

"Naruto, everyone in the shinobi world is already on board, except for some old people who don't want to leave."

"Mom. Are they really not leaving?"

"Hmm. " Uzumaki Kushina sighed and was about to console Naruto when suddenly she suddenly heard Naruto say:

"It's their choice, and we have to respect them. Mom, everyone, let's go."

A few minutes later, Naruto and his group arrived at the bridge of the World Ark, which served as the very center of the World Ark and overlooked everything.

The Shinobi World Ark slowly took off, carrying nearly the entirety of the shinobi world as it weaved its way towards the stars.

As the World Ark continued to travel through space. Ten minutes later, it arrived in the starry sky.

Everyone from the shinobi world was looking out of the windows or at the live screen overhead, watching the blue-colored planet in the distance.

Boom!

A ring of dust, visible to the naked eye, suddenly appeared from within the shinobi world, expanding as fast as a wave of seawater, followed by a violent explosion.

But this time, the explosion was not like any other. It first violently spread out and then, as if reaching a certain point, began to collapse itself at a rapid pace.

In the blink of an eye, the explosion actually compressed halfway inwards and disappeared!

With it, the entire shinobi world disappeared.

With the disappearance of the shinobi world, a crack in space-time suddenly began to appear in the starry sky where the crowd was as if the universe had become extremely unstable and was about to destroy itself.

"Naruto, what's next?"

Uzumaki Nagato and the others looked at the disappearing shinobi world with strange expressions on their faces. They were about to continue to ask Naruto, but suddenly, a glowing 'gate' flew out from the World Ark, rapidly grew in the void of space, and finally landed in front of the ark.

"Haha! Let's go!"

"To a new world!"

Uzumaki Naruto saw the World Gate appear, smiled, and waved his hand. All the shinobi on the World Ark began to muster their chakra.

Om ~~

Replenished by the chakra of these shinobi, the World Ark suddenly hummed, followed by a flash on the hull, and it directly went into the World Gate.

The World Gate flickered for a few moments and finally disappeared with a bang.

In the distance, only a pale world was left, gradually disintegrating.

...

The End.

(epilogue will be released tomorrow, along with announcement for the new book.)
