Path of the Giants of the Autumn Path of the Leaf

At this moment, in Hokage's office.

Nine jounin gathered around the desk of the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, watching every move of the students in the classroom through the peeping crystal ball.

The 27 people on the list will be divided into nine classes, namely classes one to ten, excluding the third class of Kaiban.These nine classes will be assigned to nine jonins respectively, and only those classes that pass the assessment will be retained.

Kakashi, Kurenai, and Asuma stood on the left side of the third generation respectively. Shiina Rin stood in the middle wearing a rare Jounin uniform, yawning boredly.

The crystal ball swept over the face of Uchiha Sasuke who was sitting by the window. The third generation's face looked very solemn.

"A survivor of the Uchiha clan?" Kurenai Yuhi muttered, staring at Sasuke in the crystal ball, her ruby-like eyes moving slightly.

"Uzumaki Naruto?" Kakashi looked down at Naruto in the crystal ball, his tone was not relaxed.

"Yes." The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded solemnly, turned his head slightly to glance at Kakashi and then said, "Those two special students have been given to you, Kakashi, I wish you good luck. "

"Also, Shiina Rin." The third generation suddenly changed the subject, and Shiina Rin, who was yawning profusely, was startled.

"what!"

"Akimichi Suikage, that special student has been assigned to your fourth class." The Third Hokage tapped his fingers on the table, "You seem to have met in advance."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Shiina Rin was lazy by nature, but she didn't dare to be too presumptuous when facing the third generation.

"How's your impression?"

"In fact, it's very good. I decided to accept him as a disciple." Shiina Rin thought for a while and then asked, "Well... Hokage-sama, why do you say he is a special student?"

"There are three special students in this batch." Sandai took a deep breath from his pipe and said, "Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto in Kakashi's class, and Akimichi in your class. Water mirror.”

"As for what's so special... there was an unexpected explosion in the northernmost part of the village some time ago. A giant in armor suddenly appeared, but then disappeared quickly."

"Could that giant be..." Rin Shiina asked hesitantly.

"There is no direct evidence at the moment, but there is a high probability that it is the child of the Akimichi family." The third generation knocked on his pipe, looked around at everyone and suddenly said seriously, "This matter is confidential information and is not allowed to be leaked in principle."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Everyone said in unison.

Only the class list was announced in the morning, and the list of Jonin in charge of each class had to wait until the afternoon.

Time flies by in a blink of an eye, and the sunset patrols the afternoon.

On top of the Hokage Rock, the night wind whistled, and Akimichi Shuijing walked up to the top of the huge rock with a puzzled look on his face.He looked around as if he was looking for something, and didn't stop looking until he turned to the railing in the middle of the Hokage Rock.

Shiina Rin was wearing a Jonin uniform and standing on the outermost railing of Hokage Rock with his hands behind his back.

The beautiful figure is not that tall, but facing the dim sunset and strong evening wind, she still looks a bit heroic.Originally, Rin Shiina was a beautiful-looking girl, and she would have been considered stunning if she didn't speak.

The evening breeze and the girl accompanied by the railing under the setting sun can be regarded as a world-famous painting.

As if sensing something, Shiina Rin slowly turned around.Looking at Akido Shuijing walking towards him, he sneered.

"You came?"

"I'm here." Qiudao Shuijing coughed.

He looked far away at the Konoha lying under his feet. Under the setting sun, it was as hazy as if it were covered with a layer of golden sand.

"You're still here after all."

"Didn't you ask me to come?" Akimichi Shuijing looked confused, "Iruka-sensei specifically stopped me when the meeting was over and asked me to come to the Hokage Rock in the back mountain to find you."

After completing his mission as a genin, Akimichi Suikage silently removed the honorific term from Shiina Rin.That woman is not reliable in any way. It's so windy that she invites her to such a remote place.

"Beloved disciple." Shiina Rin said in a deliberately long tone, raising her chin slightly, revealing her snow-white swan neck.

"You should just call me by my name, I'm not used to it." Akido Shuijing coughed and said, picking up the training water bottle he carried with him and taking a sip.

"Is that the armored giant you?" Rin Shiina asked suddenly.

"Pfft!" Qiudao Shuijing was caught off guard and spurted out a mouthful of water.

The mountain wind whistled, blowing back half of the sprayed water, and wet Akimichi Shuijing's chest.

"What!" Akimichi Shuijing looked at Shiina Rin in astonishment and asked, the latter was still calm.

"Don't be so nervous, I'll just ask casually." Shiina Rin let the mountain wind blow her long hair, looking at Akimichi Shuijing with a narrow smile.

He looked like a naughty adult teasing children with candy, his proud face floating in the wind.

"No." Qiu Dao Shuijing said with a serious face, "That was Qingcheng Yexia's transformation, and I didn't know anything about it."

"You're so glib." Shiina Rin snorted, "Well, forget it if you don't want to say it."

"There's just one thing I'm curious about."

"What's going on?" Qiudao Shuijing asked.

"Will becoming a giant make you bigger even there?" Shiina Rin glanced at Akimichi Shuijing and asked narrowly.

"What kind of serious question is this?" Akimichi Shuijing was speechless and didn't want to pay attention to Shiina Rin's harassment.

Seeing that Akimichi Suijing was indifferent to his teasing, Shiina Rin also found it boring, so he also stopped playing and said seriously with his hands behind his back.

"Tell me, how should I eliminate those two in tomorrow's assessment?"

"You shouldn't ask me this question." Akidao Shuijing said helplessly, "I am also one of the candidates for the assessment."

"Isn't this a hint that you have been admitted?" Shiina Rin pouted and said, "You really don't understand what tacit understanding is."

For some reason, Akimichi Suijing always felt that Shiina Rin's pouting look was a bit greasy, like an old woman pretending to be cute.But Shiina Rin is only 17 years old, so she is a girl, but what is this greasy feeling!

After pondering for a moment, Qiudao Shuijing raised his head and said seriously.

"Why don't you give it a try...and get eliminated because you entered the goal with your left foot?"

"Okay!" Shiina Rin made a great gesture to Akimichi Shuijing without hesitation.

"I just said it casually, but wouldn't it be unfair to deliberately eliminate them like this?" Akimichi Shuijing asked hesitantly.

He knew that Rin Shiina would definitely find a more legitimate reason to get rid of those two students. The list of classes was said to be evenly distributed based on strength, but in fact there were other arrangements.

Except for those three classes, the remaining six classes were destined to be eliminated from the time the list was announced.

Either his strength is average or he is mediocre.No jounin would think of spending a lot of effort to train a group of unqualified people, and these people will enter other training channels after they are eliminated.

This is especially true for Shiina Rin, who will never go on a mission carrying burdens.
