Path of the Giants of the Autumn Path of the Leaf

"That's the way it is."

Outside the half-open door, Qiu Dao Shuijing sighed.After explaining the cause and effect to Akimichi Choza who was also standing outside the door, he shook his head helplessly and said.

"So you picked up your assessment jounin?" Akimichi Dingzao frowned, and his fat body began to pace slowly in the corridor.

Seeing this, Qiudao Shuijing couldn't help but panic and asked hurriedly.

"Did I violate the rules? Is it too late to throw it back now?"

The orange ceiling light in the corridor stared at the two people, and the drinking and laughter coming from downstairs could be heard across the corridor.

Shiina Rin was carried directly to the Akimichi clan chief's mansion by the hard-headed Akimichi Suijing, and was currently resting in a room on the second floor.

The long wooden corridor was of excellent quality, and even with Akimichi Choza's weight pacing back and forth, there was no abnormal sound at all.

In the dim room, Shiina Rin curled up quietly under the quilt.I vomited on the way in and drank some ginger tea before falling asleep peacefully.

A few minutes later, Akimichi Tingza, who was pacing, stopped, his plump face bulging, and he said seriously.

"Shui Jing, you did a good job."

"Um???"

Hearing this, Qiudao Shuijing looked confused.He immediately swallowed in fear and stared nervously at his cheap uncle Akimichi Choza.

oh!Is my poor, cheap uncle already pissed off?

Just when Akimichi Suikage was about to admit his mistake, Akimichi Tingza suddenly couldn't help grinning, and even covered his mouth with his hand so as not to wake up Shiina Rin in the room.

Seeing this, Akimichi Shuijing looked at his uncle Ding Zao with even more guilty eyes.

Was Xindao being too reckless this time?Konoha still attaches great importance to rules, and even the make-up exam that he greeted was carried out with such a sense of ceremony.

"Uncle, calm down."

"Haha! You are lucky this time! I don't want to be calm at all." Akimichi Dingzao patted his back heavily and said with a smile.

"I don't quite understand." Qiudao Shuijing pursed his lips and hesitated, "Didn't I do something wrong?"

"Normally, yes." Akimichi Tingzao said, "But now, this is a good thing. The Third Hokage values ​​your future potential very much, so he made an exception and admitted you to the list of 27 people."

"Originally I planned to tell you this news tonight, but obviously you seem to have known it for a long time."

"Yes, uncle, that's the conclusion that Chun came to after analysis." Akimichi Shuijing said without blushing or heartbeat.

"That child is surprisingly smart... I only revealed a few words about the direction of the wind, but she was able to deduce the information behind it?" Akimichi Choza said in surprise.

For some reason, Akimichi Shuijing always felt that his uncle seemed to be a little jealous.

Thinking about it, he must have overthought it, and his uncle wouldn't want to abandon Choji and have a second daughter.

"Ahem!" Akimichi Choza coughed and brought the distant topic back again, "A task in the village was suspended two days ago. The financial owner and businessman were seriously injured by ninjas. He didn't die but is still there. In a coma.”

"That ninja can't be..."

"Well, it's your instructor, Jonin Shiina Rin." Akimichi Dingzao touched his belly and said to the confused Akimichi Suikage in a comforting manner, "This is an opportunity. The elimination rate of the genin assessment is 66%. 27 people There is a probability that only three classes will be left.”

"Shiina Rin is responsible for the assessment of Class [-]. If it is normal, you will most likely be judged as unqualified based on your strength."

"But it's different now. Shiina Rin is so drunk, you can see how angry she is with the result of this punishment." Akimichi Dingza paused and continued, "Given her character, this assessment is extremely difficult. "

"Isn't the chance of passing even smaller?" Akidao Shuijing was stunned and asked.

"The people who took the exam with you will basically be eliminated, but now you have a chance to let Shiina Rin keep you in the end." Akimichi Tingza said, "She is a genius and will be of great help to your future ninja path. .”

"You mean, I will pass alone?" Akimichi Shuijing opened his mouth in surprise, blinked twice quickly and asked, "Isn't cherishing your companions the most important creed of a ninja?"

"Huh?" Akimichi Choza said, "Is there any problem that only you in Class 66 passed? It meets the elimination rate of [-]%, which I think is very reasonable."

"Ah, this." Qiudao Shuijing was dumbfounded. He suddenly thought of a question.

Not all Jonin like to play bell grabbing like Kakashi. This tradition is just a special game of the Hokage class.

The third generation played it, Tsunade also played it, Kakashi also played it, and then Naruto...

Is it worthy of playing by myself? Is it worthy?

The classes composed of Konoha's Twelve are all carefully arranged. His teammates are just casualties and don't need to think too much about the assessment.

The passing rate was there. I just knew that only three classes passed the original plot, so I rigidly believed that it was almost impossible for the fourth class to pass the assessment.

But his goal is not to join a class, but to pass the exam and become an official genin.What does it matter whether I make it into the class or not?Didn't Tsunade and Orochimaru only accept one disciple?

Seeing the stunned Akimichi Shuijing's eyes gradually firm up, Akimichi Tingzao smiled happily.

"Shiina Rin is a genius in her own right and does not need a genius disciple. It is difficult for her to take care of herself in daily life. I think you can work on it from other aspects. With the goodwill of the Akimichi clan, she should not reject you too much."

Listening to Akimichi Dingzao's serious instructions on how to go astray, Akimichi Shuijing felt a little strange for a moment.

It always felt a little strange to hear these words coming from my honest uncle's mouth.And these worldly feelings seem to be common sense in Akimichi Dingzao's mouth.

"What's wrong? Is it difficult to accept it for a while?" Akimichi Tingzao smiled gently.

"No." Qiudao Shuijing shook his head, "I just suddenly felt that the family's blessing made me feel very caring."

"Because you are my nephew, Mizukage." Akimichi Tingzao raised his hand and reached for Akimichi Mizukage's head with joy, but stopped midway and just patted his back.

"You have grown up and are more mature than I once was."

"My father said something similar to me back then, but I refused. Even though I still don't regret it now." Akimichi Tingzao turned around slightly and smiled, "At that time, I rejected my father and even felt disgusted."

"But the moment I sit in this position now, I suddenly feel relieved."

"I understand, uncle, because we are family." Qiu Daoshuijing raised his head and showed a bright smile.

"Well, family." Akimichi Tingzao ruffled his hair, then turned and went downstairs.

In the corridor, Akimichi Suikage waited until Akimichi Tingza's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor before looking away.He looked at the half-open door and listened to the even breathing coming from inside.

Laughed.
