The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

The remaining eight candidates are Nagato, Mei Terumi, Konan and Hoshigaki Kisame from the Hidden Mist Village, Kari from the Hidden Iwagakure Village, Kurama Yoichi from the Hidden Leaf Village, Troy from the Hidden Cloud Village, and Maki from the Hidden Sand Village.

-----------------

Kari was born in the most elite blasting unit of the Hidden Rock Village and is a genius ninja who has mastered the bloodline limit of blasting.

Because he had been serving in the demolition corps before, and usually carried out tasks assigned by the Anbu, and needed to hide his identity when performing tasks. Therefore, although his strength is now close to that of a jonin, and he can even fight against jonin with his bloodline limit of explosive release, but in the current peaceful era, he has not yet become famous in the ninja world, nor is he well known by other ninja villages...!

So, at the request of the Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki, he temporarily withdrew from the blasting unit, became a "Genin" of the Iwagakure Village, and came to Konoha to participate in this joint Chunin exam...!

.........

.........

.........

And Konoha's Kurama Yoichi, like Kari, is also a genius ninja who has mastered a bloodline limit.

From his last name, we can tell that he is from the Kurama clan, who are good at using illusions and possess an illusion bloodline limit that can manipulate the five senses!

Kurama Yoichi is currently the person who has developed the most profound bloodline limit to control the five senses in their Kurama clan. He is just 16 years old this year, and the ability that his bloodline limit can exert is already close to the level of sublimating into the Yin escape technique that truly has the ability to create something from nothing.

With his ability to use illusions to reflect reality, he can easily fight against senior ninjas!

However, it was precisely because of his deep development of his bloodline limit and his usual neglect of physical exercise that an imbalance occurred in the Yin and Yang tun abilities in his body, causing his physical weakness. Although it was not to the point of inconvenience in his movements, compared to other ninjas, this could be considered a more fatal weakness.

Therefore, his physical condition has restricted his ability to a great extent.

But precisely because of this, Kurama Yoichi has no reputation in the ninja world, and even in Konoha Village, few people know him. After all, with his weak physical condition, he is simply unable to leave the village to carry out those slightly more difficult tasks...!

Therefore, before this joint Chunin Exam, he was found by the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and became a "Genin" of Konoha.

.........

.........

.........

As for Troy of the Hidden Cloud Village, he is of course also a "Genin" who can fight against the Jonin without losing.

As he was sent by the Hidden Cloud Village to take part in the Joint Chunin Exam and has made it this far, he is destined not to be a weakling. After all, those relatively weaker candidates have already failed in the first two rounds...!

The reason why no information about him leaked out in the ninja world was because he had been focusing on training with the approval of the Third Raikage Ai and rarely went out on missions.

The reason why the Third Raikage Ai did this was because Troy mastered the same magnetic style bloodline limit as the Third Kazekage Tessa!

You know, magnetic escape can play a very important role on the battlefield. After all, in war, kunai, shuriken and other ninja tools are widely used, and all of them are restrained by magnetic escape.

Moreover, Troy's direction of developing magnetic escape is different from that of the Third Kazekage Iron Sand.

The third Kazekage Iron Sand's development direction of magnetic escape is to use magnetic force to freely control the iron sand in the natural sand, and then use magnetic escape chakra to manipulate the iron sand into various shapes for combat.

Troy's development direction for magnetic escape is to focus on magnetization. He can mark everything he touches with his magnetic escape mark and magnetize it. He can also transfer his magnetic escape mark with the help of the magnetized objects. Finally, he can use the mutual attraction between magnets to achieve a sure-hit attack in a sense!

.........

.........

.........

Finally, it’s Maki from the Sand Village.

However, although Maki is also a genius ninja of the Sand Village, he is much inferior to the others...!

Although the 14-year-old has already possessed strength that exceeds that of an ordinary Chunin and is close to that of a Jonin, after all, he does not have any bloodline limit and is just an ordinary ninja who specializes in wind escape.

Moreover, considering that the remaining seven people all have the strength to compete with the jonin, the fact that Maki from the Sand Village can enter the third round is enough to prove his strength.

However, this is the only way he can go in this Joint Chunin Exam...!

The only thing worth mentioning is that Maki is indeed still a Genin of the Sand Village at this time, although his strength has long surpassed the level of Genin...!

-----------------

After another half an hour of rest, the third round of battle began.

The first battle is between Hoshigaki Kisame of the Hidden Mist Village and Kari of the Hidden Iwagakure Village.

All the spectators originally thought that this would be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers. After all, in the first two rounds of the battle, whether it was Hoshigaki Kisame's water escape technique or Kaori's explosive escape technique, it was a feast for the eyes for everyone present.

However, to everyone's surprise, the battle between Hoshigaki Kisame and Kari ended very quickly!

Although Shou's Explosive Release Kekkei Genkai endows him with unparalleled offensive power, Shou's development of Explosive Release is all focused on close combat bursts, especially his "Explosive Release: Mine Fist". If he cannot touch the opponent, then his Explosive Release will be useless...!

So, Hoshigaki Kisame used his superb water jutsu to easily fool Kari who wanted to get close to him and use explosive jutsu to end the battle.

The water incarnation transformed into a water prison, which easily trapped Shou inside. Then, a water explosion followed, which knocked Shou unconscious before he could use the explosive escape technique to forcibly break free from the water prison.

The total time taken was less than a minute...!

On the main stand, Qingsi's mouth corners slightly raised, outlining a faint smile. His eyes were bright and gentle, as if the warm spring sunshine was shining on him, making the people around him feel comfortable and happy.

In contrast, the Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki had a face so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip from it.

Ohnoki frowned, his eyes narrowed into slits, with a hint of cold light shining through the gaps. His lips were tightly pursed, without a trace of blood, as if covered by a layer of frost. On his forehead, veins bulged, twisting and winding like earthworms, showing his extreme dissatisfaction and anger at the moment!

After the defeat in the hunting battle, the Iwagakure Village was completely annihilated. This made the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki extremely embarrassed. After all, he had been mocking Seiji and the Kirigakure Village from the moment he greeted Seiji at the gate of Konoha Village yesterday until now...!
