Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed? Chapter 73
Advertisement
"Mifune-sama, this sentence ... It should be said by Uzumaki Naruto's son."
The words of his men startled Mifune, and then he carefully thought about it.
'If this person was Naruto's child, his father is Naruto. Naruto saved Konohagakure, and there was a possibility that he would become Hokage.'
'His grandfather would also be a Hokage, Namikaze Minato.'
'And with that, his father's teacher...'
'But Jiraiya isn't a Hokage.'
'Would ... Jiraiya become Hokage?'
'But isn't the Fifth Hokage Senju Tsunade?'
'Could it be that the future would change?'
Mifune didn't make an arbitrary decision but put aside the doubts in his mind for the time being and thought further down the line.
If Jiraiya would become Hokage, then it could be interpreted that Jiraiya's teacher was the Hokage, and Jiraiya's teacher's teacher was also a Hokage.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Senju Tobirama.
'That's right! That's right!'
'Got it! It's all clear!'
Mifune's eyes instantly erupted with brilliant light. He could guarantee that in this question, he must be right!
Mifune looked at the countdown that was coming to an end, and his serious face showed a winning smile.
"The answer to this question is Uzumaki Naruto's child."
Hearing Mifune's answer, the red group and the yellow group sighed in their hearts, and both thought that the black group's answer was correct. The answer to this question was obvious as long as the roundabout way was bypassed.
Looking at the card in hand, Nagato discovered that the judgment given by the card turned out to be ... incorrect!
It seemed that this question must be answered with the name on the card. For the first time, there was an emotion other than shock in his apathetic eyes, which was regret.
Nagato shook his head. This question would also be unsolvable.
It seemed that these people in the shinobi world are a lot dumber than he thought. With seven teams, only one team answered correctly.
And Deidara carried them forward.

'Ah ~'
Nagato sighed. He felt that he had a long way to go to achieve the important task of peace in the shinobi world.
The red light bloomed, causing everyone in the black group to freeze, especially Mifune, who was waiting for Nagato to announce his success in the make-up exam.
At this moment, he looked at Nagato in confusion.
'Was my answer... incorrect?'
'No way!'
These questions, only someone with skills like Uchiha Madara could come up with all the right answers!
Noises rang out behind him. Mifune took a deep breath and raised his hand to silence all the voices.
He looked at Nagato coldly. He knew that although Uzumaki Nagato stood in that position, all the questions were asked from his mouth, and he could see the answers in advance...
However, he didn't have the ability to change the correct answer.
Mifune coldly touched the hilt of his sword. He wanted to see what the answer to this question was!
Just when Mifune was coldly observing, a team of people from the red group had already made a move.
At this moment, Jiraiya and Tsunade were taking the lead. A group of people had surrounded Naruto, Hinata, and Hyūga Hiashi in the middle, having a heated discussion.
"Naruto, what do you want to name your future child?"
"Ah? Name? Anything is fine."
Naruto waved his hand easily. He didn't even think about it. At the moment, he was thinking about a more serious problem.
"Naruto-kun, what are you thinking?"
Watching Naruto fall into deep thought, Hyūga Hinata's meek voice rang out, making the Kyūbi on Naruto's head shudder.
"I wonder why my child doesn't want to be Hokage?
Hokage, how nice would that be? Everyone could recognize him."
"Erm..."
Not to mention Hyūga Hinata, even Hyūga Hiashi didn't know what to say at this moment.
Hyūga Hiashi, who didn't know if he should laugh or cry, looked at the pensive crowd, used half a second to organize his words, and then said:

"Naruto, in the future... If I mean, if... you really will be with Hinata, will his child's surname be ... Hyūga?"
"Ah? Father ..."
Hyūga Hinata suddenly blushed like an apple when she heard Hyūga Hiashi's words.
The little red face, which could almost squeeze out blood, made Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Chōzo feel indignant. A thought flashed through their minds at the same time:
'Damn it, this Hyūga Hiashi bastard, why is he the one so lucky to have a daughter!'
Hearing Hyūga Hiashi's words, Jiraiya's eyes lit up. He thought that it was possible.
If Naruto and Hinata got married before Naruto became Hokage, then their child would definitely have the surname Hyūga.
This could be seen by looking at Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato.
'But if Naruto becomes Hokage first, ...'
Jiraiya glanced at Hinata, whose face was flushed and whose eyes were misty as she lowered her head and rubbed her small feet on the platform floor, and he thought the former was very likely.
'This little girl... couldn't wait to marry Naruto.'
'It was very likely that the two took advantage of Hyūga Hiashi's inattention and secretly tasted the forbidden fruit ...'
'By the time Hyūga Hiashi discovered it, it was too late. The deed has been done, and even the child has been born.'
'This...'
"Well, it's very likely."
"Hinata, if you had a child with Naruto, what would you want the child to be called?"
"Ah...?!"
Hinata's little brain instantly bubbled with heat, her eyes became even more confused, and her tiny body had even begun to shake.
Fortunately, although extremely embarrassed, she also knew that the situation was urgent at the moment.
Her voice was as small as a mosquito's wings.
"I, I like sunflowers (Himawari), so ... so ..."
"Hyūga Himawari?"
Jiraiya softly recited it a few times and thought it was quite pleasant.
Hinata hid her face directly on Uzumaki Naruto's back, buried it on his back, and stopped looking at the crowd.
"Hey, hey, hey, Hinata, it's hot. Move back a little."
...
"The name Naruto is from your novel, right? Could it be that his child, too, would take a name from your novel?"
Tsunade showed a thoughtful look on her face. This time, she thought about it carefully first.
She made sure that there was nothing about a name in her vow and put her mind at ease.
Jiraiya's face suddenly became awkward when he heard Tsunade's words.
He also thought about this possibility ...
But the problem was, he hadn't written any serious novels recently!
'I wouldn't let Naruto's children be called Uzumaki Baiorensu or Uzumaki Paradaisu, right?'
Jiraiya shook his head, throwing out the jumbled thoughts in his mind.
And, another reason why he felt it was impossible was that:
Even if Uzumaki Naruto grew up quickly and honestly, he wouldn't do that to a teenage girl...
After all, he was still naïve.
...
Tsunade knew Jiraiya so well that she could understand everything just by looking at him.
"Our answer is, Hyūga Himawari."
Hearing the answer given by Tsunade, Nagato was shocked. Unexpectedly, they almost guessed it.
Because he could see the analysis, he knew of Himawari's name.
It was Uzumaki Naruto's daughter's name: Uzumaki Himawari.
Really, Nagato felt so powerless he wanted to curse. His own 'little brother' had no naming sense!
His son was named Uzumaki Boruto (bolt), and his daughter was named Uzumaki Himawari (sunflower).
Tsk!
'Were these names chosen casually?'
'Why don't you just call the boy "Ichi" and the girl "Ni"? Won't that be much simpler?'
'No, you can also call his classmate "San" later!"
'Uzumaki San!'
'What a great name!'
Nagato shook his head. He felt that he needed to break the trend later...' No... break Uzumaki Naruto's "talent" for naming.'
Taking the thought to heart, Nagato directly said:
"Incorrect answer."

Leftover Apocalypse
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is a story about the newly-adult Calliope Smith having a terrible day that ends in her getting mysteriously teleported from Phoenix, Arizona to a fantasy world where her life is in constant danger. She considers this an upgrade. Someone evil is looking for her, and she doesn't know why. Someone who seems to know a lot about her has promised they'll help her, but she doesn't know who they are. All that matters to Callie is that magic is real and one way or another she's going to learn it. The end of the world is coming up, sure, but Callie won't need to worry about that. In fact, by the time she even finds out about it one of the doomsday devices will already be destroyed, and the authorities will be well on the way to dealing with the other one. It's fine. Everything will be smooth sailing. Almost certainly. Probably. Chapters are usually about 2500-3500 words, and the goal is to post 2-3 per week but I sometimes get busy or have some writers block. It's your standard portal fantasy / Isekai premise, but unlike some the main character's time on Earth and how she got pulled into another world will (eventually) be explored. Some slight GameLit-feeling stuff later, no menus or level-ups but there's something suspiciously like a skill tree when the magic system gets going. No number crunching, and while the main character will get to do some silly stuff she won't be a god like in some fics (and will in fact spend a lot of time being badly outclassed by her enemies). Some reader interaction, ranging from adding to the worldbuilding to occasionally making big important decisions about skill progression. Please note that the main character is flawed and impulsive, and will make some stupid decisions. That's part of the story, but I get that it's not for everyone. Trigger Warnings: Foster care system references, crappy parenting. Some mental health adjacent stuff, specifically the main character has some issues where she experiences varying levels of empathy and emotional vulnerability depending on the day (it's complicated and not meant to portray any real-world conditions). Occasional violence including mention of death and grievous bodily harm, but no detailed descriptions of gore.
