Hokage’s strongest sword

The third exam begins

In fact, the interval between the second test and the third test is not a long time. These ninjas who have passed the qualifiers also ushered in their own formal exams in the midst of hard self-training. During this period of time, Konoha was crowded with people. Countless dignitaries and wealthy businessmen came to Konoha to take a look at the Chunin Exam, which can be said to be a grand event.

In the middle of the venue for the third Chunin exam, it was already full of people, waiting for the official start of the exam. After Minato exchanged pleasantries with the envoy sent by the Fire Nation Daimyo on the highest platform, he sat in his seat. There are also two chairs on both sides of Minato’s seat, which are prepared for the third generation of Hokage who has retired from Konoha and the fourth generation of Kazekage from Sand Ninja Village who will come here to watch the Chunin exam.

After a while, the Fourth Kazekage came down to the high platform surrounded by a group of ninjas from Sand Ninja Village. After waving his hands to make his subordinates retreat, Sidai Kazekage also came to Minato’s side.

“Hokage-sama…it’s been a long time no see…”

Although the Fourth Hokage is not a long-sleeved and good dancer according to the rumors, it is natural to say hello when you meet Minato.

Although Minato knew about Sand Ninja Village’s hostility towards Konoha, after all, the two sides still haven’t broken their faces, so they politely bowed their hands to Sidai Kazekage, and then said:

“I still want to thank Sand Ninja Village for their cooperation in the Chunin Exam organized by Konoha.We can have the opportunity to take a look at the fineness of the juniors. I heard that the three ninjas who entered the final round of Sand Ninja Village seem to be your children, Kazekage-sama, they are really young talents. Unlike me, my child has gone through hardships to get to this point…”

Although all the family information of Kage, who is the leader of Ninja Village, is kept confidential, but for these real high-ranking and powerful people, it is a matter of publicity, so it is better to say it directly.

Kazekage didn’t pick up on Minato’s words, but was a little curious about the chair on the other side, and tentatively asked Minato:

“I don’t know if this chair is…”

Minato knew that Kazekage was pretending to be confused, and Konoha was qualified to sit with Kage, who else could have such qualifications except Sarutobi, the previous Hokage? But Minato followed Kazekage’s words and explained to Kazekage:

“This is for the third Hokage of Konoha. Although Sarutobi-sama has resigned from his position as Hokage, as a recognized ‘Doctor of Ninjutsu’ in the ninja world, I still specially invite him to come here and take a look at our Konoha. Ye’s children. Sarutobi-sama didn’t refuse, and decided to come here to take a look, so it should be here soon, right?”

Just as Minato finished speaking, an old-fashioned voice sounded behind Minato.

“Ahahaha… I, an old man, have indeed stayed at home for a long time, and now it is a rare event in Konoha. Naturally, I, an old man, can’t bear the loneliness and want to come and have a look… I also hope that the four generations of Kazekage Don’t think that my old man is busy…”

The one who spoke was of course Sarutobi who had already retired from Hokage, and the third Hokage at the moment was like an ordinary old man, wearing a white loose dress and smiling very kindly to the fourth Kazekage. But Fourth Kazekage was not as casual as when he was talking to Minato before. Instead, he cupped his hands at Third Generation and then sat down in his seat.

Although the behavior of the Fourth Kazekage is a bit abnormal, both Minato and Sarutobi know that this Kazekage has a dark heart, he is unwilling to continue talking to himself and others, so naturally he is too lazy to talk to him, maybe later It’s not necessarily a good fight with each other, is it?

The three ninjas who were the shadows of their respective ninja villages or former shadows sat in their seats. Minato also nodded to Moonlight Hayate who was standing in the middle of the examination room as the chief examiner of the third examination, indicating that the examination could begin up.

Speaking of it, Moonlight Hayate can be regarded as a life. Since Konoha knew about Sand Ninja and Orochimaru’s premeditated plan, there is no such sad thing as Moonlight Hayate who alone monitored Sand Ninja’s leading ninja and died.

Seeing the sign of his own shadow, Moonlight Gale also gathered his own chakra on his throat to increase the volume of his speech, and said to the audience:

“The third test of the Chunin Exam hosted by Konoha is an unprecedented grand event with the participation of six countries in the ninja world. After passing the written test of the first test and the selection of wild survival in the second test, it is now Ten participants have entered the third exam, and we have announced the assessment method and battle sequence of the third exam before, so we will not describe it here. Let us welcome the participants of the first battle, from Haruno Sakura from Konoha Village and Kankuro from Sand Ninja Village enter the arena!”

Perhaps it was because Moonlight Gale had practiced this kind of opening speech many times before, and under the pressure of the scene, Moonlight Gale did not even have the problem of saying a word and coughing three times as before, but directly said the long opening speech perfectly , and then stretched out his hands to the stands on both sides, inviting the two ninjas who were taking the first test to enter the battlefield. At the same time, I also began to briefly introduce the two sides of the battle:

“Kankuro from Sand Ninja Village is a unique puppet master in Sand Ninja Village. In the previous two exams, as a ninja, he showed his outstanding combat effectiveness and ninja qualities. He is also the son of the current Kazekage. I believe you can see the battle that belongs to the puppet master in this battle!”

Hearing Moonlight Hayate’s introduction to himself, Kankuro was also very coquettish, and put the puppet named ‘Crow’ who was wrapped in bandages on his back with only some messy hair leaking out by his side. , pressed one of his hands on his puppet. But Kankuro’s appearance is really not very good, and the oil paint painted on his face is even more deductive points. The audience sitting on the side of the examination room also reluctantly gave him the gift after hearing that he is the son of the current Kazekage. Sparse applause.

“Haruno Sakura from Konoha is a top student with excellent grades among the graduates of Ninja School. In the written test of the first exam, Haruno Sakura even got the highest score of all candidates. And In the second exam, she performed well, her tenacious character and unyielding consciousness, let each of us see Konoha Ninja’s strength of character!”

When Sakura heard Moonlight Hayate’s praise, she waved her hand shyly at the stands. Compared with the two, Sakura was so beautiful, and she had the advantage of being at home. The audience still gave Sakura a lot of face. Loud cheers and applause.
