Everyone: ? ? ?
That actually makes a damn good point!
Severe imbalance in academic performance!
Yes.
Mathematics is far ahead of the competition!
Undoubtedly, they are far ahead of the competition!
If this isn't genius, then what is?
...
The large screen with its black border continues to display the image:
[The scene shifts to Asura's side.]
[The so-called assessment.]
[Isn't it just about assessing efficiency?]
Anyway, Ashura himself had little hope for himself.
Therefore, this task was not used as an assessment.
Instead, it was used as an excuse to escape.
[They strolled leisurely towards the mission location.]
I also made quite a few friends during that time.
This scene unfolded.
Everyone was puzzled?
This task doesn't assess speed, does it?
Are you kidding me?!
The story has been circulating for so long that everyone knows that people are dying one after another under the sacred tree.
You're saying this doesn't require speed?
...
On the other side.
Indra had no contact with anyone, allowing Black Zetsu to take advantage of the situation.
"The future of Ninja Clan that Hagoromo envisions is not the future you want."
This sentence was the final straw that broke the camel's back.
However, since the results had not yet been announced, Indra could only suppress his inner grievances and resentment.
Meanwhile, in another village beneath the sacred tree.
Ashura also began his mysterious actions.
Perhaps this aligns with many people's fantasies about leaders.
But remember, most people don't care about the leaders; they only care about the immediate benefits.
If we compare the two realities side by side...
You'll find that those who get things done are the ones with the highest approval ratings.
Moreover, the current situation is very unusual; the aura of death hangs over everyone.
In this situation, failing to take immediate action and instead resorting to forceful measures will only cause greater panic.
Scorpion: "Here's a joke: performance evaluations don't consider efficiency or speed."
[Meeting setbacks at every turn.]
[finally. ]
One year later.
[Asura returns.]
A large group of villagers followed behind them.
Indra had been waiting for this day.
Looking at his younger brother, Ashura.
He was expressionless.
The results will be announced today.
Indra arrived at the Ninja Sect early to wait.
[After Asura returned.]
[He was also summoned by the Sage of Six Paths immediately.]
The successor selection ceremony has begun!
The two brothers each sat on one side.
Indra was spotless.
[The Asura was weary from his journey.]
However, before the Sage of Six Paths could ask any questions...
Ashura then introduced the identities of the villagers who had come with them.
Strangely, the Sage of Six Paths also allowed these people to come in.
[According to the accounts of Ashura and the villagers.]
Only then did everyone realize.
These people were all moved by Ashura's perseverance in digging the well alone.
The sacred tree is poisonous, but if we destroy it, everyone will return to a life of uncertainty, barely having enough to eat.
[The gentle-natured Asura was not only kicked out, but also beaten up.]
Even more outrageous things happened.
[With the addition of these villagers.]
[To improve efficiency and to make everyone self-reliant.]
He made a decision almost without thinking.
Ashura began patiently teaching the villagers ninjutsu.
[And this ninjutsu training uses hand seals invented by Indra.]
After all, even he couldn't activate a ninjutsu without forming hand seals.
[Under Ashura's personal guidance.]
[One year.]
Digging the well suddenly became secondary.
[Training in ninjutsu is what's important.]
Almost everyone joined the Ninja Clan, received a share of chakra, and went to train in ninjutsu.
Supernatural powers have been mastered by everyone.
Black Zetsu: "Hahaha~"
Black Zetsu: "Everyone, is anyone going to try and defend this?"
Everyone was stunned.
"genius"! ! !
A true genius!!!
Heitu: "I can't take it anymore!"
Heitu: "They're father and son, practically identical!"
Black Earth: "Poor Indra!"
Sakura Haruno: "My god... the difference is just that huge?!"
Sakura Haruno: "The Sage of Six Paths is the root cause; the secondary cause is definitely Ashura!"
Yamanaka Ino: "It failed to educate itself properly and is now trying to shift the blame, of course!"
Ino Yamanaka: "There's also the Divine Tree quest. Did they say anything about it?"
Ino Yamanaka: "Do you want Ashura to come back first? Then change your story immediately!"
Ino Yamanaka: "Looking back now, Ashura led the well-digging for a year?"
Ino Yamanaka: "The villagers have all learned ninjutsu? What does that even mean?!"
Ino Yamanaka: "Besides, spreading chakra and leading the villagers to dig wells sounds nice, but isn't the real intention to cultivate one's own power?"
Nara Shikamaru: "Trouble... The most important point is, now that we're spreading our power, are there any restrictions?"
Nara Shikamaru: "Is this some kind of betting on people's hearts, love, and mutual understanding?"
Mei Terumi: "All those who died because of this power can be attributed to Ashura, including those who died up to now."
Mei Terumi: "I'm serious."
Onoki: "A year...you must be kidding me!"
Onoki: "Are you really just completing a mission to rescue people? How many graves have you seen in a year?"
The Fourth Raikage: "In this world, strength reigns supreme. What about love and faith?"
Fourth Raikage: "We can't defeat them."
The Fourth Raikage: "What surprised me the most was this so-called Sage, the Sage of Six Paths."
The Fourth Raikage: "As the highest seat of the Ninja Clan, the answers are all written and determined by it."
The Fourth Raikage: "As a result, all the standard answers written by Indra were marked with an 'X'."
The Fourth Raikage: "This blatant favoritism..."
Uchiha Izuna: All I can say is that the one who crossed out the answer wasn't the answer, but Indra himself.
...
Pure Land World.
The Sage of Six Paths listened to the increasingly fierce verbal attacks against it in the chat room.
For a time, all they could do was pretend to be dead and remain silent.
In fact, some people have already started talking about it.
The rebellious spirit created its mother by listening to a toad.
Finally, he dispersed the chakra, allowing the world to master supernatural powers.
How did the Goddess of Rabbit do it?
Although the guess is bloody.
However, it is clear that at that time, apart from the three great holy lands, all those on the ground who possessed supernatural abilities had become White Zetsu.
It can be said that a certain balance has been reached and things have stabilized.
Mount Myōboku couldn't sit still any longer and found an opportunity. That traitor, the Sage of Six Paths!
It even forgot what its own name was.
Otsutsuki.
Feathered robe.
...
With the help of ninjutsu, and the strength of numbers, they could achieve great things.
[Well-digging speed has been greatly improved.]
Finally, they successfully found a water source.
[certainly. ]
[One year.]
[He won over the villagers within a month, and with the sacred tree by his side, he had no worries about food or clothing. Although he was threatened by the fear of death, he was actually doing nothing.]
Suddenly, the young man who had come to destroy the sacred tree began to impart supernatural powers!
The number of people digging wells immediately increased.
Then.
[He began to cultivate supernatural powers most of the time.]
[No, it's first receiving chakra from Ashura, then gaining it without effort as well.]
Training in ninjutsu definitely took up most of my time.
Finally, with some time remaining, everyone had mastered the method of using chakra.
[My brother's hand seals are really useful, but there's no need to thank him. Just because he created them doesn't mean they're his.]
If he doesn't create it, someone else will eventually.
[By the way, the task! The assessment task!]
With everyone's efforts, it shouldn't take more than two and a half days.
A large well has been dug.
[go home. ]
However, before leaving, let's complete the mission perfectly and burn down the sacred tree.
This time, no one stopped them.
[A new water source was available, and in addition, they had mastered extraordinary powers.]
What this means, Ashura naturally couldn't fathom.
As the facts became clearer...
Indra frowned.
The Sage of Six Paths glanced at him, then looked at Ashura.
[I felt increasingly satisfied.]
Indra's furrowed brow was interpreted by the Sage of Six Paths as indicating other thoughts.
"The successor to the Ninja Sect is..."
["Asura!"]
