Salted fish should also be Hokage

The afternoon sun shone in the room through the window screen, and the birds in the forest started up with the bursts of explosions. Chitou lay on the bed and covered his head with a pillow.

Damn it, the closer it gets to the end of the second exam, the restlessness around the central tower becomes more and more frequent. The sounds of explosions, thunder and lightning, and even the sounds of giant objects flying around are everywhere, which makes Chitou, who wants to have a good rest, unbearable. disturb.

"bang bang bang"

Chitang threw down the pillow and shouted to the door: "Who is it?"

"The second exam is about to end. Please rush to the hall as soon as possible before two-thirty."

"understood"

After getting up from the bed with difficulty, Chitang rubbed his tired eyes, walked into the bathroom to wash up briefly, and opened the door.

"Hey, morning, Xiaomei."

"Ah."

Very cold response.

Because of what happened two days ago, Unomi's attitude towards Akado has dropped to the extreme. Every time she sees him, her face is very cold.

Walking down the stairs, Akado followed Unomi to the center of the hall, where a dozen candidates who had passed the exam had already gathered.

"Akado, Mei, I'm here." Sugitagawa looked around for his teammates and immediately found the two Akado who stepped into the center of the crowd.

"I know them all." Chitang looked around casually and found many familiar faces.

"I observed it and found that our new generation is quite strong. Except for Naruto and Sasuke, the other three did not come here." Sugitagawa, who came one step earlier, has already figured out the situation.

"If the three of them didn't come, I don't think their strength would be able to reach this point." Chitang thought about the duel with Sasuke that day, which really cost him a lot of effort.

"Sasuke and the others are in big trouble." Shikamaru came over and continued.

Chitang raised his eyebrows curiously and asked, "How do you know?"

"It seems that we have encountered a difficult person. When our team met them, only Sakura could stand and fight." Shikamaru recalled the scene at that time. If a few of his team had not arrived in time, the ending might have been different. .

"That makes sense, but I haven't discovered that this test can beat Naruto and Sasuke into being unable to take care of themselves." Chitang felt a little pity for their group. After all, in his opinion, Naruto And Sasuke already has the ability to become a chuunin.

Ya heard their discussion, walked over with Akamaru on his side, and said: "We did meet a scary person."

"Did you see that sand ninja standing over there? I've seen him kill people, so ruthless, without even blinking." Ya pointed at Gaara who was standing in the corner.

Chido looked in the direction he pointed, Gaara seemed to feel something, and the two looked at each other for a few seconds.

Chitang turned his head and said: "I can't tell, but I know that the sand in his hands is quite strong."

While several people were still talking, Sasuke and the other three had already walked in from the door.

"You all got the scroll?" Naruto's careless voice undoubtedly attracted the attention of everyone present.

Turning around, he looked at the three Narutos who, although embarrassed but energetic, joined the crowd.

Chitang smiled and said: "Let me tell you, how could you three fail this exam?"

"Although I encountered some bad things, I still gained something." Sasuke put his hands in his pockets and glanced secretly at the back of his neck.

Chitang thought he was talking about something that happened to him at a disadvantage, so he said unconcernedly: "When the difference in strength is too big, there is nothing you can do about it."

"Yeah" Sasuke confirmed and fell into thought.

Chitang looked at him in surprise, this guy is also capable of giving in.

"But you are here, there are more people now, it's really troublesome" Shikamaru scratched his hair, counted the number of people present and said with a headache.

"Twenty-four people is quite a lot. We will also need to test individual abilities later. We have to play 24v1 for 1 times. It's annoying just thinking about it." Akado also complained helplessly along with Shikamaru.

"Ahem!" After the third generation coughed a few times, in the eyes of all the genin present, he climbed to the second floor with a bunch of follower jounin.

"Next, Hokage-sama will introduce the third exam. Please listen carefully." Anko stood on the side and said seriously to the candidates who were whispering below.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded towards Anko, took two steps forward, lowered his head and looked at the energetic children below, and said: "The third exam will begin next. Before the introduction, I must make one thing clear to you. , is about the real purpose of this exam.”

The real purpose, Chido, raised his head and looked at the third generation with a frown.

"Why do we need to unite the Allies to take the exam? It is for the friendly coexistence between the Allies and to improve the level of ninjas. This is the real meaning. If you misunderstand it, it will be difficult. This exam can be said to be a test between the Allies. The epitome of combat.”

"What does this mean?" asked the impatient Tiantian directly from below.

The Third took a puff of cigarette and said: "Historically, the current Allied Powers are neighboring countries that have been constantly at war. In order to avoid losing both sides, each country specially selected this battle site. This is the origin of the Chunin Selection Examination."

Then he added, "It is undeniable that the Chunin Selection Examination also has the mission of selecting capable ninjas to become Chunin, but on the other hand, it is also a place where ninjas who bear the country's prestige risk their lives to fight."

"The country's prestige is a bit exaggerated." Akado whispered to Shikamaru quietly.

"I always feel like something more troublesome will happen." Shikamaru responded softly with his eyes closed.

Sandai ignored the whispers below and said realistically: "In this third exam, many princes and famous figures from various countries who have entrusted us with tasks will come, and then the princes and ninja leaders will watch your battle. If the gap in strength is too large, strong countries will receive many entrustments, and correspondingly, weak countries will receive fewer entrustments."

"At the same time, we are also claiming to neighboring countries that this is the combat power we have, which means it will put pressure on diplomacy."

Ya thought of all the things he encountered in the Death Forest, and said dissatisfied: "Then why do we have to fight to the death?"

The third generation paused and said: "The strength of the country is the strength of the village, which is the strength of the ninja. And the strength of the ninja will only be shown when fighting to the death. This test is to let others know the strength of the ninja of your country." See it or show it on a stage where others can see it. Because it is a life-threatening test, it becomes meaningful."

"In other words, this is a life-and-death battle for dreams and prestige."

Gaara said coldly: "Who cares about you? Rather than this, tell me the content of the next exam."

"Well, then I will introduce to you the content of this third exam, Baiyun Yeshan."

A figure heard the call of the third generation and appeared in front of all the candidates.

"Next, I, as the examiner, will explain." A man with a ponytail and a scar on his right lip looked down with a stern face.

"give it to you."

"Before you take the third exam, there is something you need to complete, which is related to the pre-selection for the third exam."

"Teacher, I don't understand what preliminaries for the third exam are called." Sakura couldn't accept the idea that there were preliminaries for exams.

"Maybe the first and second exams of this period are too easy, and there are too many people left. Therefore, we need to conduct pre-selection according to the rules of the Chunin Exam to reduce the number of participants in the third exam." Baiyun Yeshan said coldly said.

"how come"

Ignoring the complaints below, Baiyun Yeshan continued: "As the Hokage said, there will be many guests coming to watch the third test, so the test cannot be delayed."

"The preliminaries will be held soon. If anyone wants to give up, you can raise your hand and let me know."

Under everyone's surprised eyes, Kabuto raised his right hand.

"Why are you quitting, Brother Kabuto?" Naruto asked in confusion.

"I'm sorry, Naruto, my body can no longer bear it anymore and I can't hold on any longer." Kabuto relaxed his shoulders helplessly.

"Your name is Yakushi Kabuto, right? Then you can leave now." Baiyun Yeshan wrote two entries on the small notebook in his hand with a pen.

Before Kabuto left, he faced everyone's complicated looks and patted Naruto on the shoulder, "You have to work hard for the next exam."

"Okay, if no one withdraws, then we will start drawing lots to select people for the duel. Because there are 23 people, one person will have a bye, and the person with this bye can directly advance to the final third exam."

There was a commotion below.

“How could this be possible?”

"Yeah, it's not fair at all."

"Shut up. Sometimes luck is also a strong part. If you have nothing else to say, then you can draw lots." Baiyun Yeshan interrupted the candidates' discussion fiercely and looked at Hongdou.

Hongdou nodded and said through the intercom: "Open"

Then two electronic display screens appeared. Baiyun Yeshan pointed at them and said: "First draw a bye, and then draw two people for a duel. The duel method is not limited, until they fall down or admit defeat."

"move"

After hearing Baiyun Yeshan's shouting, the subtitles on the two electronic display screens began to rotate rapidly, and finally stopped slowly.

The words Sugita River were displayed on both screens.

"Okay, Sugitagawa, come out, you have advanced."

Before Sugitachuan realized what was happening, he walked forward blankly under the complicated eyes of everyone.
