Chapter 217 Shuimu: Hey hey hey, didn't expect that, did you? It's me again.
Kushina finally understood what this guy was up to. He was planning to trick her son into stealing the Book of Seals. How despicable!
Sigh, wait a minute, it seems I originally wanted Naruto to look through the Book of Seals, since Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is recorded in that Book of Seals.
Judging from Naruto's expression, it seems he's been persuaded by this guy named Mizuki.
Or should we just go along with this guy for now?
Shuimu also knows that some things cannot be rushed.
He checked the time and then said to Naruto.
"If you don't believe me, just wait until today's exam is over and see how far you are from becoming Hokage."
After saying that, Shuimu turned and left.
Actually, he was also gambling, betting that this hot-blooded idiot would see the gap between his grades and the talents of others, and the gap between himself and a true ninja, after the exam, and would choose the advice he gave.
"Just you wait, Mr. Shuimu, I'll prove it to you, my fellow sufferers!"
Naruto raised his right hand and waved his clenched fist. He was determined to prove his strength to Mizuki-sensei, and at the same time, he also wanted to prove to himself that he could surpass all the previous Hokage.
After shouting, Naruto rushed towards the classroom. It was almost time; the graduation exam was about to begin, and he couldn't afford to miss it.
The graduation exam at the Ninja Academy is divided into two parts: the morning session is a written exam, and the afternoon session is an assessment of ninjutsu.
"Ugh, this is so hard. Why do I, as a ninja, have to take these tests?"
In the exam hall, Naruto sat there scratching his head, looking at the words on the test paper. He could barely recognize them when they were separated, but he couldn't understand how they were put together.
Naruto, feeling helpless, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and immediately began to communicate with the sealed space.
"Mom, Mom, can you do these questions?"
Upon hearing Naruto's voice, Kushina's forehead veins bulged.
The Nine Lamas, who was resting nearby, couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Kushina, you really have a good son. He just asks his mom for help with the questions he can't answer during the exam, hahahaha."
"enough!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Kushina drew her Vajra Chains and lashed Kurama with a whip.
"Scarlet Pepper, what are you doing? Why are you hitting me because your son is useless!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Lie down here obediently!"
They gave Nine Lama a few more lashes, and only then did he behave. There was no way around it; he was too shameless.
He couldn't do anything to her through the cage, yet her chains came in and hit him. It was so unfair.
Having no other choice, the Nine-Tailed Fox could only curl up in a corner and stay there obediently.
After disciplining Kurama, Kushina then yelled at Naruto.
"Answer the questions yourself, write down as much as you can!"
"Okay, okay, Mom."
Naruto was also frightened by Kushina's earlier rampage, so he obediently began to answer the questions.
Having finally endured the agonizing morning, Naruto finally saw the afternoon arrive.
Inside the classroom, Iruka and Mizuki sat on the podium, with all the students' information laid out in front of them.
The students waited outside the classroom.
One student went in as each student's name was called.
Finally, after a long and tense wait, Iruka's voice came from inside the classroom.
"Next up, Naruto Uzumaki!"
"I'm here, fellow sufferers!"
Naruto jumped up excitedly and then walked towards the classroom.
Hinata looked at Naruto and whispered words of encouragement to him.
"Go Naruto-kun!"
Naruto happened to be passing by Hinata when he overheard this.
"Oh! I'll do my best, thank you Hinata!"
Naruto smiled and gave Hinata a thumbs-up before striding into the classroom.
Upon hearing Naruto thank her, Hinata blushed and immediately transformed into a steam princess.
"This great one has arrived!"
Naruto walked into the classroom and hopped right in front of the two teachers.
Iruka looked at Naruto and couldn't help but sigh.
He had witnessed Naruto's transformation. From being at the bottom of the class, his grades had gradually improved, and he had now reached the middle level of the class. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to graduate smoothly and become a ninja.
The premise is that Naruto doesn't mess things up.
"Naruto, you've made great progress this semester, but I still have to remind you to behave well and not cause any trouble, understand?"
"I heard you, so don't worry, Iruka-sensei and Mizuki-sensei. I'll prove it to you."
"Good luck, Naruto."
Mizuki smiled and encouraged Naruto, reminding him that he had to play the role of an excellent teacher before his plan could succeed.
Iruka drew the exam questions from the lottery box in front of him.
"Alright, Naruto, your test question this time is: Shadow Clone Technique."
"A clone technique, huh? Pretty cool."
Naruto completes the hand seals.
"Clone Technique!"
Iruka held his breath for Naruto the moment the ninjutsu was activated.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened, and Naruto successfully activated his clone technique, resulting in two Narutos appearing in the classroom.
"I did it, fellow forum members! Iruka-sensei, Mizuki-sensei, you saw it, I did it!"
"I'm super awesome!"
The two Narutos shouted excitedly.
"Congratulations, Naruto, you've passed."
Both teachers gave Naruto a satisfactory evaluation, which made Naruto very excited.
"Great! Now I can become a full-fledged ninja!"
Naruto excitedly ran out of the classroom.
Shuimu didn't forget to give some instructions.
"Naruto, don't forget to come to school later to check your grades. That way you'll know how far you are from your dream."
"understood!"
Naruto's voice faded into the distance.
"Why did you remind Naruto to come back and check his grades? It's already a great achievement that he graduated smoothly."
Shuimu smiled and said.
"It's nothing, just a small bet with Naruto. This kid actually wants to become the Hokage who surpasses all the previous Hokage. Although it's good to have dreams, I think we should also make this kid see the gap between himself and his dreams."
Iruka nodded, thinking that Mizuki's approach wasn't wrong. After all, Naruto could be impulsive at times, and it wouldn't be good if he did something foolish. It was better to make him face reality.
"Yes, that's fine too."
Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office.
"Lord Hokage, this morning, Mizuki, a teacher at the Ninja Academy, came into contact with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."
"Mizuki?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned; he seemed to know of such a person.
"What was he doing contacting Naruto?"
"This morning, Mizuki used the excuse that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was not strong enough to entice the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to steal the Book of Seals."
"Mizuki, you tricked Naruto into stealing the Book of Seals..."
