The man standing at the top of the ninja world

Tsunade is one of the three ninjas. She is one of the top ten masters among all the ninjas in Konoha. Not only is she strong in strength, but she also has outstanding teaching abilities. She is an excellent leader of ninjas.

It can be said that it is the dream of countless students to have the opportunity to become Tsunade's subordinate. Under Tsunade's guidance, Haruno Zhao himself knows how quickly his strength has improved.

But since entering the first class, Haruno Zhao has always been under pressure. This pressure was brought to him by Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina.

As a teammate of a team, his strength is far behind the two of them. Although Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina have never disliked him for this, Haruno Zhao still inevitably feels this in his heart. Produce feelings of inferiority.

Originally, Haruno Zhao expected that he could improve his strength little by little under the guidance of Tsunade, and gradually close the gap with Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina until he stood at the same height as them.

But this Chunin Exam was beyond his expectation and caught him off guard.

Tsunade attaches great importance to this chuunin exam, and Haruno Zhao is self-aware. Although he has made great progress, he is still far from the genin carefully selected by the elite of each ninja village. If he really fights, he will only be able to Defeated, and this will definitely affect Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina.

Recalling the time he spent in the first class since graduation, Haruno Zhao made a decision. It was okay to hold them back in the past. At least this time, he would never hold them back again.

Thinking this, he raised his head, looked at Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina, and said: "Let's go to the Hokage-sama and ask him to transfer me out of the first class, and bring in a stronger genin, such as Konan-san. Or Minato-san, if everyone in the first class is strong, there won’t be any weaknesses.”

"When the time comes for the Chunin Exam, you will definitely be able to defeat all your opponents and become the final winner."

"Damn it." Uzumaki Kushina interrupted Haruno Ou loudly, pointed a finger at him, and shouted angrily: "You actually said such a thing, do you think of us as your companions?"

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She raised her fist and was about to hit Haruno Zhao.

"Kushina, calm down." Nagato reached out to hold the angry Uzumaki Kushina, then walked to Haruno Zhao, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Zhao, don't say such things again, I and I Kushina will not agree to replace you."

"The allocation of members of the first team is decided by Hokage-sama, and Hokage-sama must have his own considerations when assigning teams. The ninjas he assigns to each team must also be the most suitable ninjas for this team. "

"Take you as an example. Although your combat power is a little worse than that of Kushina and I, you still have some areas where we can't compare."

"For example, every time you answer questions, no matter how difficult the questions on the test paper are, you can get full marks, while Kushina and I's answer scores are much worse."

"So what." Haruno Zhao didn't take it seriously at all, and said disappointedly: "A ninja's duty is to fight, and there is no point in answering the questions no matter how good they are."

"That's not necessarily true." Nagato smiled slightly, "Zhao, as far as I know, there are several tests in the Chuunin exam. In addition to testing the actual combat ability of the Genin, it will also test the Genin. In this regard, you But the strongest one can get perfect marks in every exam."

"Nagato, what are you talking about?" Haruno Zhao looked at Nagato in surprise when he heard this, "The Chunin Examination will take the written test. Is this true?"

"Of course it's true." Nagato nodded, and then thought to himself, although this written test has nothing to do with whether he can answer the questions.

"This" Haruno Zhao couldn't help but hesitate. He had strong confidence in answering questions. At least among the genin, there was definitely no ninja who was better at answering test papers than him.

Seeing this, Nagato continued: "Besides, have you ever thought about it, there are only seven days left until the Chuunin exams, even if a genin who is stronger than you is really replaced, in such a short period of time, Kushina and I can't cooperate with him tacitly, and the team's strength will not only not increase, but will also decrease a lot."

"So, only if you are with us, the first team can exert its strongest combat power. Since we are assigned to the same team, we should trust each other. Only in this way can we be regarded as a qualified Konoha ninja. "

Haruno Zhao was stunned for a while after hearing this, then nodded vigorously and stammered: "I, I understand."

"Nagato, Kushina, I will definitely practice hard so that I won't drag you down in the Chunin Exam."

"Humph." Uzumaki Kushina snorted and turned her face away from him, while Nagato smiled.

Although part of what Nagato said just now was to deceive Haruno, he really didn't want the other party to change teams.

On the one hand, Haruno Zhao is his best friend besides Yahiko, Konan, and Uzumaki Kushina. On the other hand, the Third Hokage is unlikely to replace him with any powerful teammates.

Among the ten strongest students in their class, the three Yahikos have a very good relationship with Jiraiya and will obviously not be transferred to the first class, while Hinata Hizashi, Hyuga Hizashi, Nara Shikaku and Akimichi Dingza are all They are bound together, and it is impossible to change them. In the end, Uchiha Tetsuya also had no hope of teaming up with Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina because of his status as an Uchiha clan.

After excluding the top ten, the remaining genin, even if there are a few who are stronger than Haruno Zhao, are not much stronger. Just like Nagato said, after switching over, the strength of the team will be reduced due to unfamiliar relationships.

Next, the three of them began to concentrate on training. Soon after, Tsunade came back. She had already registered for the three of them, and they only had to wait for the Chunin Exam to be held in seven days to participate.

Time passed little by little, and after the sun set, Nagato, Uzumaki Kushina, Tsunade and Haruno Zhao said goodbye and returned home, while Konan and Yahiko had also returned and were discussing the Chunin Examination.

The two told Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina that Jiraiya had registered them and Namikaze Minato for the Chunin Exam.

Moreover, Jiraiya also told them that many of the newly graduated genin of this class, that is, their classmates, had taken the chunin exams.

In the hall of the Senju clan, everyone was eating dinner. At this moment, Yahiko suddenly stood up from his chair, slapped the table, and said loudly: "Okay, it's decided. I must take this chunin exam." Defeat all opponents and be promoted to Chunin as No. 1."

"Yahiko, your decision seems a bit difficult to realize." Konan, who was sitting opposite Yahiko, looked at him with a smile, "Not to mention the ninjas from other villages, Nagato, Uzumaki Kushina and I. You can’t beat it anymore.”

"Xonan." Yahiko looked at Xiaonan dissatisfied and said sadly: "Of course I know I can't beat you, but if I can't beat you, can't you let me have fun?"

Kushina Uzumaki next to Konan glanced at Yahiko and muttered: "Idiot."

"What are you talking about?" Yahiko was furious, but he knew that he could not defeat Uzumaki Kushina, so he hurriedly looked at Nagato, "Nagato, the relationship between the two of us is the best, you must help me."

"No problem." Nagato nodded and said loudly: "Yahiko, I have already thought about it. In order to help you achieve this goal, after you defeat Konan and Uzumaki Kushina in the Chunin Exam, I will directly ask you How about admitting defeat?”

"Okay." Yahiko was overjoyed, with a bright smile on his face, and said quickly: "That's it."

"Nagato, it turns out that you are the only one who is my best brother."

"Sure enough, he is an idiot." Uzumaki Kushina rolled her eyes, "Please, think about it carefully, there is no way you can beat the two of us, so what he said is as if he didn't say it."

"Uh" Yahiko was stunned when he heard this, and the smile froze on his face.

"Haha." Sitting in the main seat, Uzumaki Mito looked at the four people with a smile on his face.

......

The next morning, Nagato went to the training ground with Uzumaki Kushina and Tsunade, but was stopped by an ANBU ninja on the way. The ANBU ninja told them that the Third Hokage was going to summon Nagato.

From the time Nagato arrived in Konoha, the Third Hokage basically summoned him every few days to ask about his current situation. Sometimes he would go directly to the Senju Clan's headquarters to see him. Nagato had already known this. got used to.

He followed the ANBU ninja to the door of the Third Hokage's office, knocked on the door, and after receiving permission, pushed the door open and entered the room, where he saw the Third Hokage sitting at his desk, working on documents.

The Chunin Examination is about to begin. Konoha must not only prepare for various matters related to the Chunin Examination, but also deal with the housing issues of ninjas from other Ninja Villages in advance, as well as the high-ranking officials and nobles from various countries who come to watch the battle after they arrive in Konoha. , and these tasks are all fully responsible for the Third Hokage, so his workload has increased recently and he is very busy every day.

Nagato looked at the Third Hokage and asked: "Hokage-sama, do you have anything to do with me?"

The Third Hokage raised his head when he heard the voice, and when he saw it was Nagato, a smile appeared on his face, "Nagato, you are here."

"I haven't seen you for a few days. Have you encountered any difficulties in cultivation recently?"

"I did encounter problems while practicing, but Tsunade-sensei has helped me solve these problems."

"Really, that's good." The Third Hokage nodded lightly.

In fact, Nagato's daily information has been passed to the Third Hokage through the ANBU members who are secretly following him. He summons Nagato once every two days, just to get closer to Nagato.

Immediately, the smile on his face faded and he asked: "Nagato, Tsunade should have told you about the Chunin Exam."

"Yeah." Nagato nodded.

The Third Hokage looked solemn, "Nagato, this Chunin Exam is related to the views of the daimyo of each country on the future of each Ninja Village. Other Ninja Villages will send their strongest genin to participate in this Chunin Exam."

"You are the strongest genin among all the genin in Konoha. Do you have the confidence to defeat the genin from other ninja villages?"

"This is indeed the case." Nagato thought secretly in his heart. On the way here, he guessed that the Third Hokage's visit to him this time should be related to the Chunin Exam.

It seems that this Chunin Exam is really important to Konoha. Tsunade has already said it once, and the Third Hokage has to come to him specially.

"Hokage-sama." Nagato nodded to the Third Hokage, with a firm gaze and said loudly: "Don't worry, no matter what kind of opponents the other ninja villages will send, I will definitely defeat them and make our Konoha become The final winner of this Chunin Exam"

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. Although Nagato is very confident in his own strength, he will not be careless. When he went to bed last night, he had carefully recalled the information about the powerful ninjas who were similar to him, and finally came to the conclusion In conclusion, with the ninjutsu he currently masters, otherwise no one among the ninjas of his generation would be his opponent.
