As an Uchiha I became the Jinchuriki of Senju Tobirama

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: The Great Exam



Tobirama had the same opinion as Kazuki about the exam, squinting his eyes and showing a serious expression, and said to himself: 'What's with the monkey? Making ninja school students answer such deep questions? Even my older brother might have a hard time answering…'

While Tobirama was still questioning the difficulty of this set of test papers.

While Tobirama was doubtful about the difficulty of the test, Kazuki began to respond quickly.

Tobirama sneered at this scene.

If the Uchiha clan truly understood the Will of Fire, then they wouldn't be Uchiha. Although Kazuki might resemble him a bit, that was only in superficial terms, such as the use of Water Release or kenjutsu…

Although Kazuki was showing a bit of the flavor of the Will of Fire in his performance, Tobirama did not believe that an Uchiha, known for his practical talent and weakness in theory, could handle questions of this level.

But as Kazuki answered, Senju Tobirama's smile gradually subsided. His expression changed from mocking to serious, and he looked at the answers on the test paper very seriously.

No, you really answered fluently, right? Are you a Hokage or am I a Hokage?

Oh, Kazuki is the descendant of Kagami, then it's okay, you are worthy of being the descendant of my apprentice, good!

"...where the leaves of Konoha flutter, the fire will also continue. Where there are leaves fluttering, the flames of hope will burn, the light of the fire will illuminate the village, and new leaves will grow..."

Kazuki used the heartfelt words of Sarutobi Hiruzen before his death as a summary of the last big question, which made Senju Tobirama's eyes light up and hesitate.

This emotion is too abundant... Is Kazuki kid serious? Is he really a genius born to study the will of fire?

"Fallen leaves are not objects without feelings, they are transformed into nutrients to feed the flowers…" Kazuki checked the test paper and said to Tobirama with emotion: "It's autumn, fallen leaves become nutrients to feed next year's spring shoots. The Will of Fire really does encapsulate the rules of the world, it's fascinating…"

Tobirama pondered Kazuki's words, and the more he thought about them, the more profound they seemed.

He wanted to argue and suppress Kazuki, but he was speechless now.

Especially when Tobirama saw Kazuki's answer to the proposition of [discipline], his expression became more complicated.

"… Discipline is crucial for shinobi. Shinobi must suppress unnecessary emotions. The village sets strict and effective rules that must be obeyed from top to bottom to avoid most unnecessary conflicts…"

These words are almost the same as the answer he gave when he discussed how to achieve peace with Hashirama when he was a child!

Except for Senju Hashirama and his brothers who were present at the time, Senju Tobirama never talked about this conversation with anyone else, even his apprentices.

But today, thirty years after his death, Senju Tobirama saw a kid from the Uchiha clan, saying words that were almost the same as when he was a child!

This peculiar feeling enveloped Senju Tobirama's heart, and he thought of the similarities between Kazuki and him, such as the use of Water Release and kenjutsu, even in aspects of his personality.

This feeling is something that no other disciple had given Tobirama before…

[From the target Senju Tobirama, you get a special talent: the power of Senju Tobirama!]

[The power of Senju Tobirama]: You can borrow the power of Senju Tobirama's soul in your body, and the strength depends on the subjective will of the target.

Kazuki looked at this strange talent and blinked.

Tobirama faked a look of difficulty and coughed dramatically. "Kid, you've answered quite well…"

"But there is still a big gap compared to me."

"How about this, you kid think of a way to let me answer a set, and I will show you the perfect answer sheet, which can also be regarded as teaching you..."

"Hey, isn't this the Second Hokage... I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you still want to answer children's questions?" Kazuki looked at Tobirama with a smile and shook his head again. "Forget it, Tobirama. Don't you think it would be a little embarrassing if your score didn't beat mine? Wouldn't that make you look pretty bad?"

"And if that happens, wouldn't you blame your dear disciple? If I allow you to continue with your whims, wouldn't that be like trying to create discord?"

"You've been dead for so many years. The ninja academy you founded didn't have written exams, and you probably haven't even developed an evaluation model…"

"Better forget it, it really isn't worth it. If you don't like it, just criticize me…"

Kazuki, in a very objective and considerate tone, mentioned the difference between the Sengoku period and the current era of the ninja village, giving Tobirama a way out of the predicament.

But his tone was very infuriating, and Tobirama's temples throbbed when he heard it. He temporarily forgot the wonderful feeling he had just had with Kazuki and gritted his teeth in anger.

"Don't look down on me, I'm the Second Hokage, if I can't even beat you, an Uchiha kid, in the exam of the Will of Fire, it would be a joke..."

"A model has never been the key to the Will of Fire. What is important is the core and the logic."

"Don't talk nonsense. Can you make me answer the questions? If you can't, just say so!"

Kazuki shook his head with amusement and did not judge Tobirama's provocation and his desire for his apprentice to mark his papers. He said like an adult comforting a child: "Okay, okay, I really can't do anything about you, I'll just agree to it."

"What's the strange tone of your voice? Do you think I'm being unreasonable!"

Kazuki shrugged. "I didn't say that. You're so old, but you're so sensitive. Really…"

"..." Tobirama's face darkened.

Evil Kazuki kid!

Kazuki slowly looked around the students in the examination room. Many very young students were sleeping soundly.

There was no way. This test paper, which was written by Sarutobi Hiruzen and wanted to test Kazuki's level, was too difficult for them.

Instead of filling out a test with such sensitive questions with wrong answers, it was better to hand in a blank sheet, which was safer.

'From a certain point of view, this is the wisdom of a mediocre student…' Kazuki thought when he saw Uchiha Obito writing furiously.

With Uchiha Obito's brain after being taken away by Uchiha Setsuna, what kind of earth-shattering answer would he write? Even Kazuki was very interested in seeing the reaction of the teacher who graded the papers.

That would definitely be interesting.

Kazuki stood up and, passing by a sleeping student, leaned over and patted him on the shoulder. "Classmate, did you drop this pen?"

The confused classmate woke up. "Teacher, I... I really don't know, it's not that I don't want to answer! "

The whole examination room laughed, but the laughter was full of resentment. Which teacher asked this question? It was too difficult. Isn't it embarrassing...

Even Ikkaku, who was sitting on the podium, laughed helplessly, thinking to himself: 'Children, the teacher doesn't blame you. This is the Third Hokage to test Kazuki-kun... For the future of the village, please bear with it for now. I will give you a few more classes to make up for it...'

"Kazuki-kun, this is not my pen, thank you..." The classmate saw Kazuki's kind smile, scratched his head awkwardly, with a look of respect on his face.

"Inada-kun, try to answer. You can do it. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. This is a precious opportunity to learn the will of fire. This set of test questions is very good. It would be a pity to miss it..."

Kazuki took out a pen with the Uchiha clan emblem, which was obviously expensive, and handed it to him with an encouraging smile.

Inada took the pen tremblingly. He didn't expect that Kazuki could remember his name.

The moment their gazes met, the Sharingan in Kazuki's eyes slowly rotated.

"Kazuki-kun... please rest assured, I will work hard!"

"Okay..." Kazuki nodded to him, walked to the front of the stage and handed the test paper to Ikkaku: "Umino-sensei, I'll hand in the paper first."

Ikkaku accepted Kazuki's exam with satisfaction and saw that many students who had given up on answering the questions were hesitantly picking up their pens. A sense of pride that came from the bottom of his heart arose within him.

In the classroom, the looks towards Kazuki's figure were complex.

Uchiha Obito pursed his lips, thinking about Uchiha The idea of family supremacy that was instilled in him by Setsuna, he snorted coldly, combined what he thought was the will of fire with Uchiha, and wrote on the test paper more quickly.

Sarutobi Asuma had a complicated expression. If he was not in the classroom, he would have wanted to take out the stolen cigarette from his trouser pocket and light one.

Nohara Rin chuckled, thinking about visiting Kazuki's house on the weekend, and hummed a nice song in a low voice.

Might Guy burst into tears and said with deep emotion: "This is youth!"

Until Ikkaku signaled him to be quiet, Might Guy turned his attention to the test paper, and quickly wrote something like youth on all the questions...

[From the target Might Guy, you get the taijutsu Leaf Great Whirlwind!]

"You are really emotional, Guy..." Kazuki listened to the electronic sound with resignation and sat on a chair outside the classroom, waiting for Shisui to finish his exam.

"Come on, respected Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, tell me what you want to answer, I have controlled Inada-kun with genjutsu, and he will write your answer on the test paper..."

"Write well, don't let him fail the exam..."

Tobirama snorted coldly, but did not argue with Kazuki, but closed his eyes and thought.

After a long time, he slowly said the answer to the first question, looking very serious.

No one expected that in an ordinary final exam, one of the papers was answered by the late Second Hokage...
