I became rich through business in the ninja world

It's certainly not that the candidates haven't imagined what they will encounter in the Chunin Exam.

From battles to various traps.

It’s not like I haven’t thought about the scene of ‘You go first and I’m behind’.

But the entire examination room is going to be gone, which is too much.

This is no longer a question of where to hide, but victory if you don't fall.

And in this situation where victory is a win if you don't fall, you still have to protect your mission goal - that's really adding insult to injury, making it even more difficult, and forcing yourself to do something difficult.

Although ninjas are stronger than ordinary people, that doesn't mean they are truly invulnerable.

In a situation like this, if they were smashed into the sea by the broken ground, they would really die!

is mortal!

They didn't care who to pray to anymore.

He quickly tried his best to protect the mission target and escape.

This sudden subsidence also affected Ugetsu, but after all, she stayed in a farther and safer place, and there was Uchiha Shisui beside her, so the biggest impact was that her snacks and drinks were scattered in pieces. All over the place.

"Is this also arranged?"

Ugetsu was puzzled, and Ugetsu was shocked - if this was also part of the plan, then Kirigakure Village would be too crazy.

For an exam, they actually had to demolish a piece of land.

"No, it should just be a simple movement of the earth's crust." Uchiha Shisui shook his head when he heard this, "The area around here should have been relatively affected, so there are frequent earthquakes and tsunamis."

"Coupled with the fact that people are making too much noise during the Chuunin Exams, this must be the last straw that breaks the camel's back... Is there any problem?"

Noticing the strange gaze Ugetsu had been looking at him, the curly-haired boy tilted his head.

"No, nothing."

It’s just that the overly scientific term ‘tectonic movement’ seems strange when it comes from a ninja like you.

I was quite shocked, "I thought you were talking about fantasy, but it turns out you are also talking about science."

"It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave first."

Seeing that Ugetsu didn't want to explain clearly, Uchiha Shisui was considerate and did not continue to ask.

Instead, he decided to take Ugetsu away from this area that was no longer safe.

After he said 'I'm sorry', he picked the person up and rushed out with a few ups and downs.

As for the examination room on the seaside, in addition to collapse, fragments of the ground fell into the sea and caused huge waves.

The huge waves rushed towards the shore with devastating power, once again accelerating the rate of ground collapse.

This makes the escape route even more difficult for candidates who already have difficulty finding a place to stay.

If it was just an ordinary subsidence, it would be okay. They could use the falling stones to use their strength to rush upward or to a safe place aside.

What's amazing is that even if they fall below, as long as the ground doesn't merge immediately, they can always find a chance to climb up.

But it's different with the roaring sea water.

The sea water carrying the gravel has the power to kill people, and falling into the water will increase the difficulty of movement. Once submerged by sea water, you can basically give up.

It can't be saved.

——At least with the strength of those who took the Chunin Exam, it is almost impossible.

Therefore, when a candidate is really unlucky, the moment he steps on it, the whole person falls apart.

Not only himself, but also his teammates, their minds went blank, leaving only despair.

"catch!"

In this situation, the sudden appearance of the rope and sound really seemed like a savior.

The fallen ninja didn't care to identify the owner of the voice. He subconsciously adjusted his balance and struggled with strength, and flew over to grab the rope.

However, what happened next was not what he imagined. The rope dragged him away and sent him to his teammates.

I saw a white object falling diagonally below me.

By emitting blazing light and heat.

boom!

The ninja on the rope was directly hit by the impact of light and heat and flew out.

"Take it!"

Following that sound, Ninja felt himself flying.

After a short flight, he felt that he had hit something.

——Destined to die... huh?

The ninja thought he was really doomed this time, but found that the pain caused by the impact was not as severe as imagined.

And he did not lose consciousness and went to the Pure Land.

He carefully opened his eyes and found that he was on a large net woven with steel wires.

The steel wire that could easily cut off the human body has been specially treated, and coupled with the buffer slope created by the earth escape at the rear, not only will it not cut the person into pieces, but it will allow people to stick to it to prevent secondary injuries.

"Quick! Pull the person down! Another one is coming!"

Following the hand handed to him, the ninja hurriedly climbed down the steel wire net that had just stuck him.

Only then did he notice that there were already four or five candidates around him who were receiving the same treatment as him.

And in the short period of time he left, another person slipped through the parabola in mid-air and fell down.

Only then did he notice that the person who handed him the rope before was someone flying in mid-air...

"Fat, fat bird?"

That white, round thing with wings didn't look like a bird that normally exists in nature.

Instead, it looks more like a child’s random scribbling or something made out of something.

"That's Deidara's clay."

A young voice answered his question.

He looked to the side and saw that the only Uchiha child in this Chunin Exam was manipulating the steel wire in his hand to adjust the direction and position of the steel wire net in preparation for the next 'caught person'.

Behind him is a ninja from the Kingdom of Earth. He is constantly releasing Earth Release Ninjutsu in the direction of Uchiha Itachi's net to create a 'mound of soil' for buffering.

"Deidara's clay bird is not enough to take the two of them away safely, so we can only use this method."

The so-called 'method' is that Deidara's bird first pulls the person up, and then uses explosive clay to detonate it in the air, causing the person to take off in the planned direction.

Then Uchiha Itachi and others used steel wires to weave a large net on the ground to catch people to prevent them from falling to death.

Although it is troublesome, the risks are also high.

But this is the best solution these candidates can think of now.

"Can you still move? If you can, come and help me."

Just when the examinee was in a daze, other people's voices came from next to him.

"Ah! Yes! It's coming!"

He quickly got up and ran over.

"He was hit by a falling rock and his leg was broken. Please help me fix his leg and I will provide emergency treatment."

After the disgraced ninja quickly explained what the other party had to do, he concentrated on continuing to complete his work.

As mentioned before, although Tsunade and Chiyo use medical ninjutsu just like playing, for ordinary ninjas, medical ninjutsu is a very difficult branch of ninjutsu.

Not only does it require a large amount of chakra, it also requires high-intensity concentration. If you are not careful, both the person using medical ninjutsu and the person receiving medical ninjutsu may be injured.

The ninja who came to help temporarily also knew the difficulty. He immediately stopped talking and devoted himself to the work of attacking.

Fearing that something might go wrong during the struggle, he not only fixed his legs, but also knocked the person unconscious.

——If he faints, you don’t have to worry about him struggling and hurting others or himself!

The ninja who was about to use medical ninjutsu: "..."

Okay, that's a solution.

There is nothing wrong with using extraordinary means at extraordinary times.

In this way, the candidates who still had some energy left spared their hands to save people. After the rescued people recovered, they joined the help force again.

In order to rescue people and respond more quickly, they did not start with

Just evacuate to a very far safe area, and instead fight and retreat.

While treating, retreat at the same time to ensure that everyone can be found and receive help in time.

The candidates worked hard when they were able, but when they were unable to help, you helped me and I helped everyone survive the collapse crisis.

After finally evacuating to a safe area, you no longer have to worry about the ground beneath you suddenly cracking and people and belongings falling down together.

Everyone finally relaxed.

They didn't care whether it was dirty or damp, so they just lay down.

I can't help it, I'm tired.

It's so tiring.

I just didn't feel very focused yet.

Now that he is relaxed, his whole body is screaming, as if it is no longer his own.

It hurts here, it hurts there.

All in all, nothing good.

Deidara's blond hair was almost soaked with sweat and mist, and it fell wetly on his face, showing no image at all.

He flew the clay bird more than a dozen times and dropped the explosive clay more than a dozen times, which was far beyond his usual tolerance limit. At this time, he was lying on the ground exhausted.

After taking a few deep breaths, he reluctantly said to Uchiha Itachi beside him:

"This time, this time it doesn't count."

He looked unwillingly at Uchiha Itachi, who was still in a state of embarrassment but still had some strength left, and made a speech about the next competition.

"Next time... I will definitely beat you."

"……it is good."

Uchiha Itachi nodded.

——In fact, he originally wanted to admit defeat this time.

After all, Deidara was the one who contributed the most during this rescue operation.

Of course Uchiha Itachi was reluctant to use ninjutsu, but this time, he was convinced.

If it weren't for his ability to fly with clay birds, nearly half of the candidates here would probably be in danger.

But since Deidara offered to compete next time... then let's do it next time.

Uchiha Itachi is also a little proud.

But what needs to be said should still be said.

"Thanks to you this time."

He thanked Deidara seriously.

"If it weren't for you, everyone would definitely not be able to escape like this."

Dilada was stunned for a moment.

——To be honest, as the ‘old troublemaker’ of Iwagakure Village, he was always the one who was yelled at and told not to cause trouble.

And his explosive clay has always been regarded as a troublesome and dangerous existence by Iwagakure Village.

Even if people didn't say it openly, their attitudes and the discussions they thought were hidden were enough for Deidara to feel this.

It was the first time for me to be formally thanked by someone like this, especially from someone I considered my ‘old enemy’.

Don't look at it as just a simple thank you.

Deidara couldn't stop it on the spot.

He opened his mouth, but in the end he could only hold back one sentence:

"N-It doesn't count... eh!"

That's right, I just did what I could do. What does it matter?

Although he rescued people, Deidara didn't think he had done anything great.

Nor did he regard himself as a hero or perform heroic deeds.

So Uchiha Itachi's special thank you made him a little...at a loss.

But then it wasn't just Uchiha Itachi.

Other people who had taken a breath also came over to express their thanks.

"Thank you so much!"

"You are amazing!"

"amazing!"

Whether they were being rescued or participating in the rescue, the candidates all came together.

Especially those candidates who were rescued by him, the kind words poured out like water without any money.

——A few years ago, in fact, they would not have been so smooth to praise a ninja from another village.

After all, no matter how powerful that person is, he is still a ninja from another village.

You may become your own enemy one day.

However, after so many years of peace and continuous back-and-forth cooperation, the thoughts that 'different ninja villages are enemies' and 'sooner or later they will fight again' that they once cared about have disappeared unconsciously in the hearts of the new generation.

They still have the pride of being members of their own ninja village.

Normally, people from other ninja villages will be regarded as imaginary enemies. Once they encounter competition or competition, they will try their best to defeat others.

But that’s just ‘competition’, just ‘not admitting defeat’.

It's not 'hatred'.

Deidara was already at a loss when Uchiha Itachi opened his mouth. Coupled with the other people who came over, the blond boy surrounded by him was confused on the spot.

——No one taught him how to respond at times like this.

In the ninja world that focuses on criticism and education, the most confusing thing may be the current situation.

Deidara didn't respond for a long time, and the other candidates who came to thank him didn't care either - the original purpose of their coming was to express their feelings and express their gratitude.

Rather than really getting anything from Deidara.

They looked at each other and nodded.

Then some strong men stepped forward, one on each side, picked up Deidara and Uchiha Itachi, and then threw them up.

This action shocked the two boys who had never experienced it before. They subconsciously tried to adjust their balance and land, but were thrown out again by the hand of the person who caught up behind them.

"Long live!"

"Thank you!"

"Throw harder!"

Candidates regardless of their village or origin repeatedly threw people up, using this action to express their joy and gratitude for escaping from death.

Everyone has light in their eyes and a smile on their face.

So Deidara smiled unconsciously.

Uchiha Itachi also laughed.

——The audience and ninjas outside the venue also laughed unconsciously.

"It seems like we don't need to appear now."

The ninja in charge of the preliminary round shook his head and stopped other ninjas who originally wanted to help.

Although it is a test, if such an accident occurs, Kirigakure Village will not have to watch the candidates go to a dead end.

In fact, if Uchiha Itachi and Deidara hadn't stepped forward and actively organized the rescue operation, these ninjas would have been involved.

But the rescue from the organizers out of responsibility is completely different from the spontaneous actions of these children.

The impact and insights it brings to people are also completely different.

"The world outside is really different."

The Kirigakure Village ninja who was in charge of invigilating the exam murmured as he looked at the candidates who were still celebrating in the distance.

"Yes."

Beside him, a companion of the same generation as him was also filled with emotions.

"Times are really different."

At their time, no, even in the Chuunin exams before the Third Ninja War, this scene would never have happened.

Don't talk about saving people at that time.

It would be good not to take the opportunity to eliminate the backbone of other ninja villages.

Of course, it doesn't mean that there really aren't people who can save people.

But even if you are rescuing people, you still have to beware of attacks that may come from the rescued person - because the person being rescued is not just an individual, he is also a ninja of the Ninja Village and must carry out the village's orders.

The village's order is to pass the chunin exam while trying to reduce the number of candidates from other ninja villages as much as possible.

He strangled the other rising stars of the Ninja Village to death in their cradle.

It's not that ninjas are really cold-blooded.

It doesn't mean that they are really ungrateful.

It's just that the world and the village didn't give them this chance.

If you let someone go now, he may kill someone important to you in the future.

It may put yourself and the village at a disadvantage.

……nobody

Be willing to take the risk.

Therefore, they would rather destroy their own humanity and erase their own conscience.

Go and repay kindness with hatred, go and kill with pain.

So they won't smile at that time.

——Of course there would be no such scene.

"Then we..."

A ninja behind him asked uncertainly.

Are they going now or not?

"Let them vent for a while and notify the pick-up ship. There is no need to wait. Just change the direction and sail over directly."

The ninja in charge smiled.

"They are all good and there is no need to continue testing."

"Let the people on the ship prepare in advance. The medical ninja must be in place. Then the logistics team should also work hard and prepare more food and drink for them."

It wasn't just the ninjas who were deeply moved.

The audience was also moved by this scene.

People are used to the scene of ninjas fighting their enemies.

I also think that is a natural development.

But this is the first time I have seen a scene like this.

The fierce confrontation is certainly exciting and exciting.

But the story of humans putting aside their past grudges and working together to overcome disasters is even more touching.

Those who take the initiative to save others are heroes.

After being rescued, he ignored his own pain and embarrassment. He stood up and joined the rescue army to help people who were more in need of help than himself.

It is also unforgettable for a long time.

Some people who were easily moved even turned red-eyed.

"This is... a ninja."

Not only are they at the forefront during battles, but they also stand at the forefront when encountering natural disasters.

"Well done...well done to everyone."

"Woo, I originally came to support Yunyin Village in defeating the invincible opponent in the world, but everyone is so awesome, I want to support every one of them..."

"Yes, they are all great... Can I still buy support items from other Ninja Villages now? They saved my favorite child, and I want to do my part for them..."

"Let's go see it together later."

"There should be more."

The support from the audience is also very simple.

If you are moved, support it.

How to support it?

Of course it costs money.

Part of the money from these aid items will be used as bonuses to be given directly to these candidates.

Why don't you buy it fiercely?

What a down-to-earth and effective support.

Although this preliminary round was full of traps and difficulties, we did not see the fierce and exciting battles and gorgeous ninjutsu as people expected.

But the candidates showed everything.

Whether it is being serious and responsible for mission items, or being united and sacrificing oneself for others at critical moments, the audience still screams of satisfaction.

Let’s be honest after all.

The battle between ninjas is actually a very distant thing for them.

Not to mention that there has been no war for several years.

Just talking about daily life - Ninjas are powerful in combat and make people feel safe.

But the ninjas can definitely hit their heads and just run away and fight on their own without caring about their employers, right?

On the contrary, the candidates in this preliminary round valued and carefully cared for the many incredible mission items, which made them even more satisfied.

Because this is something closely related to yourself and the items you may entrust to escort.

Who doesn’t want themselves and the things they transport to be properly protected and treated?

There is also the way the candidates respond to sudden crises, which also makes people feel more secure.

If such a ninja came to escort him.

Then I guess you can feel at ease no matter what kind of danger you encounter.

Sure enough, regular ninjas are more expensive than others.

Those wandering ninjas and rebellious ninjas are certainly cheap, but who can guarantee that they won’t survive the critical moment?

Why don't you just leave your employer and run away?

Yes, you should still ask the Great Ninja Village to entrust it.

Credibility guaranteed.

Therefore, after the end of this Chuunin Exam, the number of commissions from each Ninja Village increased by several percent... But these are things for later, let's not mention them for now.

After the seaside became calmer, the boat that came to borrow them found another suitable place to dock along the coastline and stopped.

The candidates climbed onto the boat with great embarrassment and exhaustion.

Anyway, they passed the preliminary round.

After the person in charge of the preliminary round finished speaking, it was Ugetsu's turn to cheer up.

After all, Ugetsu Store is also the sponsor.

Coupled with the fact that this preliminary competition was accident-prone but exciting, Yuyue should come out to encourage them both emotionally and rationally.

...Lest these young people go to eat chicken before they can recover...No, participating in the rematch ended up ruining their mentality.

A game like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds requires everyone to be motivated and rack their brains to make it interesting.

If the mentality is broken and everything is broken, it will be over.

"Congratulations to everyone for passing the preliminary round. Your wonderful performance will always be engraved in our memories and the memories of the audience, so now... oops."

Yuyue was only halfway through her words when she shook her head and laughed.

Because those candidates who were still listening to his speech just now fell asleep without knowing when.

If you get closer, you can hear a small purring sound.

It can be seen that these young people are really tired.

I was exhausted for several days, and I had to strain my nerves to run for my life and save others.

Even a genius like Itachi Uchiha couldn't hold on anymore.

At some point, he and his teammates also fell asleep next to each other.

"This one……"

The person in charge of the preliminary competition naturally discovered this situation.

Although he understands it very well, after all, it is based on the speech of the sponsor (name sponsor), and it is really... unreasonable to just sleep on the ground like this.

"Let them rest...ah, if you have a blanket or something, take it out and cover them."

Yuyue waved her hands, indicating that she didn't care about these little things.

The person in charge of the preliminary competition breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course he also wanted the young people to rest, but the God of Wealth was angry because that was a major event that would affect the future of Ninja Village.

It can be resolved peacefully like this.

This is also a good thing.

"I'll let people go."

After he confirmed the situation on Ugetsu's side, he simply turned around and asked someone to get the blanket.

When he passed by the ninja from his own village who was lying on the ground and sleeping soundly, he subconsciously wanted to kick him to make him look good.

But I thought of Miss Ugetsu’s words.

I thought about all the things that happened during this time.

He retracted the foot he had just raised, then took a blanket from the person next to him, shook it out and covered the candidates in Kirigakure Village.

"Stinky boy."

A slight smile appeared again on his cold and serious face.

"Be thankful that you were born in a good era."

Their generation of ninjas who came out of the war actually did not believe in peace.

I don’t think peace will one day become a daily routine.

But if peace were all like this.

Then he also wanted to pray to that illusory god.

I pray that days like this can last longer.

The sea is endless.

The ship carrying the candidates sailed into the distance in calm waves.

Over there, there is another exam waiting for them.

...But before that, they can all have a good rest and have sweet dreams.
