Konoha Koi

Chapter 66 The Strongest Chunin Showdown in the Ninja World, Opening!
On the second day, Ji Guang woke up early, and just opened the door of the house, and found three figures standing in front of the door, namely Sarah, Bo Fei and Brother Pingtou.Today is an important day, and everyone has a tacit understanding to choose to go out together.

As for Taka Uchiha, because of abdominal injuries, he could not withstand the cold wind in early spring, so he had to follow the doctor's advice and continue to stay indoors to recuperate, unable to leave the hospital for half a step.

The competition venue is not far from the Konoha Center. It is said that thousands of Konoha ninjas used the earth dungeon to cooperate with the first generation Hokage Mutun to build it within three days.In order to facilitate distinguished guests from all sides of the ninja world to come and watch the competition, Konoha even built a number of roads along the way to the venue.

Aurora and the others were walking on the road, and from a long distance, they saw dense crowds of people ahead.From a distance, the competition venue is already very huge. In order to facilitate everyone to watch the competition, the entire venue is designed as a standard concentric circle, and the height of the wall alone is more than 30 feet.

Although it was only six o'clock in the morning, Ji Guang and "Brother Pingtou", as contestants, had to enter the arena in advance to verify their identity according to the regulations.Because ninja spies were rampant during the war, and the art of camouflage was too clever, Konoha had to prevent someone from pretending to be a player for a certain purpose to invade and destroy.

After all, this Chunin exam is different from the past. Firstly, it is related to the majesty of Ninja Village in a big country, and the defense of Konoha Village is not paper.Secondly, it is related to the fairness of "gambling" in the ninja world. As the largest banker, Konoha must assure everyone that the game is absolutely fair.

The passage for the contestants to enter the arena is also very special. Konoha specially dispatched hundreds of jounin to maintain order and ensure the safety of the 24 contestants along the way.

In the lounge specially set up by the venue, the contestants entered the room one by one to verify their identity, and then everyone was taken into another room.There, they were asked to wear different colored ninja foreheads, and a special number was temporarily printed on the back of the clothes, so that all audiences in the venue could identify and distinguish different players.

Next, there is still one hour before the official start of the game, and each player has an independent room for rest and adjustment.According to regulations, they cannot contact any outsiders during this period until the game officially starts.

Ji Guang sat quietly in the room, crossed his legs and closed his eyes in a state of repose.Relying on his powerful perception ability, Ji Guang found that his physique was a little stronger than yesterday. This feeling is really joyful and sad.

The joy is that my cells are constantly replacing, just like the "white-haired monster" said, the cells will become stronger every time they metabolize.Sadly, because the "first-generation necklace" provided abundant vitality and chakra as nutrients, the replacement speed of his cells was a bit too fast, just like a dry sponge that urgently needs to absorb water, it seems that he has to wait until his physique reaches a certain level before he can replace it. Toned down slightly.This will kill Aurora's life. The ninja cells can divide up to 60 times in a lifetime. Such strengthening is simply overdrawing the potential. Take life as a cigarette, and the better you smoke, the shorter the cigarette.

Although the current Aurora's skin is pale, his physical strength, strength, chakra, nerve response speed, and even the vision of Sharingan have all improved significantly.It is precisely because of this physical condition that Jiguang has the confidence to continue participating in the Chunin duel, and he is sure that he is expected to advance all the way until the final final.

When the time came to eight o'clock, the three directions of the duel arena stands were already packed. Many people didn't even have a seat. Even if they bought tickets, they could only stand and watch the game.To say that Senshou Feijian is quite economically savvy, Konoha has made a lot of money just by selling tickets for this Chunin showdown, making the other four countries drool with envy, wishing they could hold one in their own country Ninja test in the field.

In addition to the general audience stands, the north side is very spacious, which is divided into three different areas.

The lower rows are full of participating ninja teams from various countries, as well as some ninjas from Konoha; the middle floors are filled with dignitaries from various countries. Together, they can be regarded as powerful and powerful. The powerful employer of the task; on the top floor, there are daimyos from various countries in the ninja world and village leaders.Among them, the Shadow of the Five Kingdoms and the daimyo are the most honored, sitting in the ten positions in the middle.As for the leaders of other small countries, although they are on the highest floor, they can only be crowded in remote corners.

The entire arena was very lively, and there were many discussions in the stands.Not long after, under the leadership of Sasuke Sarutobi, the chief examiner, 24 contestants began to enter the arena one after another.

At this moment, a ninja appeared in front of Hashirama in the north stand, bowed his head and said, "Report to Hokage-sama, it's time for the official competition. Please come to the stage to announce the opening of the Chunin selection!"

"Is that so?" Senju Zhuma smiled and nodded, "Then, let's start!"

Hashirama was originally chatting with the heads of state of various countries, because the "Ninja God" was too powerful, so he was sought after by the famous names of various countries, so he had no choice but to deal with the pleasantries.Seeing Konoha Kaminin's reminder, it was as if the sky saw a savior. He, who was not very good at dealing with political situations, stood up and nodded to the surrounding daimyo.Stepping forward a few steps to the most conspicuous part of the high platform fence, the momentum spread out, and he opened his hands and announced loudly:

"Dear distinguished guests, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all of you who came to Konoha to watch the Chunin selection exam. Next, 24 candidates who passed the preliminary selection will be used for the official selection competition! Due to time constraints, the competition process will last for three days, so 24 There is a time limit for the first duel between players, and the winner must be decided within 10 minutes before they can enter the follow-up main match!"

Speaking of this, everyone in the audience looked at each other in blank dismay. They never thought that there was still a time limit for the first round.But after a little thought, everyone can understand that there are too many participants in the entire ninja world. If the competition is done one by one, the audience will probably be exhausted, and the players will be impatient.

Some people may ask, since there is not enough time, why do so many players enter the third game?
This question is easy to answer, everything is for the sake of everyone's face.After all, there are too many forces in the ninja world. In addition to the five major ninja villages, there are many small village forces in various places.Although their strength is not even as good as the weakest Sand Yin, this is only in relative terms.If several forces are added together, they should not be underestimated, and their strength is completely comparable to that of the Great Ninja Village.

If half of them are eliminated in advance, many existences will be offended.If the last ten ninjas who enter the competition are all players from big countries, and the other small village ninjas don't even have a chance to play, what will the leader think?Is it because you, Konoha, look down on our small villages from all over the world, and the lumpy genius in our village doesn't even show his face?

Therefore, in the final duel between Chunin and so many contestants, it is not only because of too many candidates, but also because of political needs.

"So, contestants, do you have any objections?" Qianshou Zhujian on the high platform paused a few times to ask again, and after the contestants answered in unison, he raised his hand and said loudly:
"Then... I declare that the strongest ninja showdown in the ninja world will begin now!"

"Before the game, let me say a few words. Although everyone has confirmed their opponents from external sources beforehand, according to the rules of the game, it is still necessary to announce it." Sasuke Sarutobi, who is the referee, stood in front of the players and started a match schedule. According to the table, 24 into 12, 12 into 6, 6 into 3, and the final draw of 3 people to select the final winner.

After the player in front of him nodded and confirmed that it was correct, Sasuke Sarutobi continued: "Okay, listen up, you guys, because the venue is different, the rules have changed. We still have no restrictions on the shooting rules of the servants. However, regarding the issue of victory and defeat, the new rule is that the winner will not be decided until one party dies or completely admits defeat. However, if one party loses consciousness, the leader of the Murashita Shinobi team is eligible to replace the player and admit defeat. Another thing to note Yes, if one party completely begs for mercy, then the attacking party should stop, and can no longer wantonly hurt the losing party. Anyone who violates the above regulations will be sentenced to failure, do you understand?"

"Understood!" The 24 contestants responded in unison, and Sasuke Sarutobi raised his hand and said loudly:
"Then, in the first round, Ugakure Sanshoyu Hanzo will face Konoha Uchiha Aurora! Please return to the viewing platform to wait for other irrelevant players!"

The players below left in an instant, leaving only the two players and the referee.On the high platform, cheers and noises can be heard one after another, discussing one after another:

"Hey, the child wearing a mask below should be the poisonous child that has been rumored recently, right?"

"Yes, there are rumors that he has a very powerful poison in his body. Even Hokage-sama is afraid of his potential and wants to keep him in Konoha to kill him."

"Nonsense! Hokage-sama is an upright person, how could he do such a despicable thing?" A Konoha villager on the viewing platform retorted loudly, obviously very dissatisfied with the people from other villages insulting his idol.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I heard that his ability is very special. He can corrode Mudun by exhaling at a young age. It is because of this that you Hokage forced the elderly village chief Urenin to keep this child in Konoha!"

"Bastard, you are not allowed to insult our Master Hashirama!" A Konoha Churen said loudly: "Master Hashirama must have kept this child in Konoha out of good intentions, and wanted to protect him from being used by bad people That's all!"

"Che, do you think this statement is reliable?"

"That's right, I heard that there was Konoha Ninja before, and I advised him not to participate in the competition. Because his first opponent is a disciple of Naruto, and Konoha is afraid that he will hurt Uchiha Aurora."

"Oh?" Hearing this, many spectators around reacted, and someone asked: "Speaking of which, disciple of Hokage, he won't just be killed by him, right?"

Hearing the rumors below, many ninjas on duty near the stands felt something was wrong, and reported the situation to their superiors, and finally the rumors spread to the ears of Qianshou Feijian above the stands.

"Hmph..." This kind of unappealable trick also wants to affect Konoha's reputation?What an idiot! "For these rumors, Senshou Toikama just laughed it off: "But it's good, I have already united with the close families of Konoha in the periphery, and won the first unpopular match against Aurora, and the other games against Sarutobi Hiruza.Rumors about these guys just help us improve our winning odds. "
