Chapter 12: The Uchiha Genocide
Compared to Sakura, who came from a big family, Ino was more mature and rational. After living her childish life, she would wake up at a certain age and find that she just used to like Sasuke. Of course, it was based on the premise of the original work. Otherwise, it couldn't be guaranteed.
"Next is Kunai throwing." Iruka quickly continued with the topic. The exam still had to be done. This exam was no longer as simple as the shuriken test. The student needed to hit five different locations.
Fortunately, it was not as strict as wartime. Before, the student needed to throw five Kunais simultaneously instead of five consecutive shots. The two were different, but the difficulty of the kunai exam was greater than the shuriken one before.
"Naruto, you do it." Today, Iruka took special care of Naruto. Naruto's expression became bitter. Under Iruka's threatening gaze, he could only walk in obediently.
"It's do or die now." Naruto gritted his teeth and cast the kunai five times without stopping for even a moment.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Uzumaki Naruto, passed!" Iruka's eyes were shocked. This can't be real. Out of the five, two hit the bullseye, and two just happened to hit the circular line like before. The last one was, of course, out of the line. This kid was really lucky today.
"Haha, I knew it. How could a mere exam be difficult to me that will become the Hokage?" When Naruto knew that he had passed the test, he immediately cried out in excitement. He completely forgot that his legs had gone soft just before.
After Naruto, the Konoha 12 and other students soon began the exam as well. After the kunai exam, there were even fewer students who passed. However, there were at least twenty or thirty students.
However, there were only twenty students left after the test. As for Ryoha, who had not yet taken the last test, Iruka had already ignored him. Now, Iruka would rather believe in Sasuke, Hinata, and other students of the prominent clans who would fail the test rather than assuming that monster Ryoha would fail the test.
"This time, I added more stakes. I don't believe that you can throw five kunais which weights several times the shuriken in a row and pierce through five stakes in a row."
If it were one by one, Iruka would definitely believe that Ryoha could pierce through the wooden stakes. But it was five at once. That meant his strength would be divided into five parts and released in one go. It wouldn't be simple, and he would struggle.
Of course, the others didn't know that Ryoha was not someone who only knew how to train. Every night, after his training was over, he would come to the basement to fight the robots that Bulma had specially arranged for him. Although these robots did not have killing intent and could not compare to real life and death battles, Ryoha still slowly accumulated a certain amount of combat experience in the continuous battles. This was a great advantage.
Ryoha shook his head indifferently and walked in. He casually glanced at them and immediately threw out five Kunai. Five continuous sounds of collisions immediately rang out.
"Is this real? He is even more monstrous than that fox demon." Some students who hated Naruto and were not aware of the truth reflexively said. Unfortunately, these students did not know that the original story where Naruto used the Kyubi to save Konoha from Pain.
"It actually broke through? How much power and sheer control does it take?" Iruka took a deep breath. He had taught students for so many years, but this was the first time he had encountered such a thing. The Third, who was watching from the side clearly saw this scene.
"I have checked his family. It was just an ordinary family. At most, it was a bit wealthy, and their background is clean. It is impossible to be a spy from another Village. Moreover, he has lived in Konoha since he was a baby, so he can be useful."
"No, this is a good seedling. It's a rare thing a commoner-born child can surpass those from the prominent clans. Well, as long as he is willing to be loyal to Konoha, I must protect him."
The third thought of the methods of those prominent clans. Those who obey would prosper, and those who were against die. Danzo had a more sinister means to directly control people. He immediately arranged to secretly protect Ryoha, not allowing others to take advantage of him.
Of course, the Third was not a good guy. Seeing what he did to Naruto for the sake of the interests and balance of the village, it could be seen that he was not a good guy. If Ryoha's performance in the Ninja School did not reach the ideal goal of The Third, then he would definitely remove all the protection he had for Ryoha. This was the reality.
"It should be very soon. I am the same age as the Konoha 12. I am seven years old now, and the Uchihas should be annihilated soon. It seems that I have to awaken my Sharingan as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be dangerous."
When Ryoha returned home, he found that Bulma was still sleeping. Perhaps she was exhausted after yesterday. Such peaceful and quiet sleep made Ryoha unable to bear to wake her up.
"According to the original work, the origin of the awakening of Sharingan was mostly stemmed from the heart. Perhaps it was stimulated by hatred, anger, and so on. Or maybe it was long-term training. I just fused with the genes last night. Now the genes inside my body are changing. According to Bulma, it will take at least half a year for me to open the Sharingan. Then I will train crazily in this half-year.
Ryoha had already planned a series of plans in his heart. He did not have such a good brother who would use his life to open his brother's eyes. Ryoha could only rely on his own efforts to open his eyes.
Now that life was so stable. Emotional fluctuation would not appear. He could only open his eyes through long-term training. More persistent training should be able to accelerate the change in his body.
Ryoha continued to live his dull but very fulfilling life with this decision in mind. Half a year passed quietly. After waking up one night, Ryoha found that the atmosphere in the village had changed. There was a kind of murderous atmosphere. When he returned to the academy and saw that Sasuke was absent, Ryoha already knew what was going on. The Uchihas had been exterminated.
Although he knew that he would find out sooner or later, he did not think about changing it. First, he was not interested in Sasuke, and second, he did not have the strength. It was better to keep a low profile. Unfortunately, Ryoha had utterly forgotten that his previous performance was already flashy.
