Chapter 196 The Exam Begins

While everyone was looking forward to the announcement from the root, Kabuto Yakushi and others were naturally not idle either.

Based on the age and strength standards given by Kabuto Yakushi, Yamato had already shortlisted the list of civilians.

Now the final assessment list has been determined. There are 28 people from the family and 288 people from the common people. The ratio of men to women is one to one. This is what Yakushi Kabuto deliberately requested.

After the list is finalized, there are two things before him now.

The first is to determine the assessment method.

The location has been decided before, in the forest near the south of the village.

As for the method, according to Yakushi Kabuto's idea, there are two main parts, namely the assessment of wisdom and the assessment of loyalty.

As long as wisdom and loyalty pass the test, there is no problem with strength, and it can be improved with the help of elixirs.

The specific assessment measures were finalized by Pharmacist Dou after a morning meeting and discussion.

Next comes the second thing, the confidentiality and security of this assessment.

After all, it is the root, and many things need to be kept secret. The list and identities of the members participating in the assessment are naturally among them.

Therefore, Yakushi Kabuto must ensure that there will be no spies around during this assessment, whether they are spies outside the village or spies within the village.

There is also security, which also needs attention.

These people are the flowers of the future at their roots, so they must be taken good care of.

After a meeting, it was decided that confidentiality matters would be handed over to Kabuto Yakushi and Nonou, while security matters would be handed over to Kabuto Yakushi and Yamato.

Yes, Kabuto Yakushi was involved in the whole process, otherwise why would he be the person in charge!

Later, under his instruction, Yamato sent people to inform those who participated in the assessment of relevant matters.

On the one hand, there are members of various families, and on the other hand, there are civilians who have passed the preliminary screening.

It is said to be a notification, but in fact it is just one sentence, mainly to inform the other party of the time and place of the assessment.

Of course, due to confidentiality needs, these notifications are made one-to-one by root members.

In addition, Yakushi Kabuto specially prepared a copy of the meeting content and handed it to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and asked him to be there tomorrow morning.

So on the afternoon of the day when registration ended, some people in the village received notice of the root assessment.

When the registered civilians are alone, a masked ninja will appear in front of him, verbally inform them of the time and place of the assessment, and require them to take the assessment alone.

Before disappearing, these ninjas would also explain without emotion that they should not leak these contents, otherwise the consequences would be serious.

Of course, this is just talk, and it’s hard to say what the consequences will be.

At this time, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, Hinata, was reading in the yard. Suddenly, a masked figure appeared in front of her, and then a cold voice came from under the mask:

"Miss, please go to the forest south of the village tomorrow morning to participate in the root assessment alone, and do not disclose relevant matters."

Having said this, the cold voice paused for a moment, and then said:

"Remember, the assessment has already begun from the moment you step into the forest! Please be wise and loyal!"

Before he finished speaking, the figure had disappeared.

Hinata raised her head, opened her snow-white eyes, and murmured curiously:

"Do you want to tell Father?"

Obviously, the figure just now was Hinata Nao.

The cold voice said that he didn't like people from the clan like Hinata, but calling him eldest lady showed his inferiority in front of the clan as a branch.

What a contradiction!

The same thing happened on the other side.

Since today is the weekend, the children do not have to go to school, so Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi Choji are eating in the barbecue restaurant at this time.

"You are so fat, eat less!"

A crisp little female voice.

"Bah, the barbecue is so delicious. Ino, bah, do you want some?"

Regarding Ino's disgust, Choji just gave a vague answer, his mouth full of grilled meat.

"Take it away quickly, I won't eat it! I want to stay in shape so that I can be favored by Sasuke! I wonder where Sasuke has gone!"

Seeing this, Ino hurriedly pushed Choji away while talking, but when she mentioned Sasuke, she fell into longing again.

Because she hasn't seen Sasuke for a long time!

At this time, Shikamaru walked into the barbecue restaurant.

"Hey, Shikamaru? Why are you here? Come and eat barbecue!"

The moment he saw Shikamaru, Choji quickly swallowed the roast meat in his mouth and shouted.

However, Shikamaru didn't appreciate it. He walked slowly and leisurely in front of the two of them, without sitting down, and whispered directly:

"I'm here to inform you that you will take the assessment in the forest south of the village tomorrow morning. Don't let anyone else know!"

After a pause, Shikamaru continued:

"Remember, loyalty and wisdom!"

Then Shikamaru walked out of the barbecue restaurant, leaving Ino and Choji in a daze.

"Assessment? What assessment?"

Choji asked as he ate the meat.

"That's the basic test!"

Ino was speechless.

"Oh, that's it. That's not difficult."

In fact, Shikamaru, like Hinata Nao, both knew some inside stories, so he reminded his friends more or less.

This is what Kabuto Yakushi specifically explained, and some of the assessment content can be revealed within the rules.

As for why Shikamaru didn't wear a mask, it was simple because Kabuto Yakushi planned to cultivate him into a card at the root.

Since it is a card, there is no need to wear a mask.

Of course, even if you don’t wear a mask, some confidentiality work must still be done.

The next day came in a blink of an eye.

Kabuto Yakushi took Nonou, Yamato and others to the forest south of Konoha Village early in the morning and waited quietly for everyone's arrival.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nonoyu whispered in Yao Shiduo's ear:

"The people who went to the Hokage's office before you that day were wearing masks, but intelligence showed that Uchihai from the police department had left for some time before that."

A faint fragrance hit his nostrils, but Kabuto Yakushi had no time to pay attention to it because the information was more important.

"Is this so? I know!"

After listening to Nonou's information, Kabuto Yakushi nodded.

It seems that Sarutobi Hiruzen and the police minister are hooking up.

He had an inexplicable intuition that the two of them would definitely be detrimental to him, so he needed to prepare early.

Not long after, the figure of Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared in front of Yakushi Kabuto, accompanied by two people wearing masks.

"I kept you waiting, Kabuto."

Sarutobi Hiruzen came up with just one sentence.

"No, no, I just arrived."

Kabuto Yakushi replied.

Then the two of them stopped talking.

Kabuto Yakushi looked at the other two people across from him, wondering about their identity so that he could prepare.

While he was thinking about it, some children also rushed over one after another.

After they saw the Hokage, they all said hello, and then stood aside quietly waiting for everyone to gather.

Soon, everyone was here, and not one of the 316 children was left behind...
