Konoha's Sea of ​​Fire

砰

bang bang

Amidst the sound of the salute, the crowds of people slowly poured into the huge arena that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. In the stands, the chatter and noise of the crowd merged into a chaotic noise, drowning the entire arena in the joy. In the ocean of celebration.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood in the main stand, looking at the spectators in other stands, with a bit of pride and worry in his eyes.

According to the intelligence collected by ANBU in the past half month, among the major allies, Taki Ninja Village and Kusanagi Ninja Village have been eliminated as suspects, and Oto Ninja Village has been confirmed to be the ninja village established by Orochimaru. As for Sunagakure Village

Suddenly, Sarutobi Hiruzen put away the worry in his eyes, turned his head with a smile and looked at the Fourth Kazekage Rasa and several guards who were walking slowly to his left, his eyes half-squinted: "I thought you wouldn't know how to do it. Here you go, hahaha, you must be tired after a long journey, Yondaime Kazekage."

"No, it should be said that fortunately the venue is in Konoha." Orochimaru's incarnation, the Fourth Kazekage, slowly spoke, and opened his mouth with sarcasm, "Although you are still young, if you go to Sunagakure Village to attend the meeting, it will be very difficult for the Third Hokage. You must be very tired."

The guard who was the incarnation of the fire seal was standing behind wearing a scarf. He was frightened when he saw Orochimaru speak. The tone of his words was really sharp.

I'm afraid that others won't suspect it

Orochimaru continued to say sharply: "I think you should decide on your successor as soon as possible, otherwise if something unexpected happens one day, the huge Konoha will be without a leader."

"Hahahaha, don't think of me as an old person, I plan to work for another five years."

Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed and walked to the railing of the stands, but his eyes narrowed deeply.

An Anbu guarding Hiruzen Sarutobi tilted his head slightly and looked up and down at the Fourth Kazekage.

This person was clearly an Anbu dressed up as Jiraiya.

No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything special about the Fourth Kazekage.

In the arena at this time, Naruto, Erzhu, Nara Shikamaru, Aburame Shino, Hinata Neji, as well as Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro were all ready.

Because of the butterfly effect of sealing fire, Naruto, who was supposed to be late in the original work, and Erzhu, who almost couldn't catch up, were already in place early, and these two people looked very energetic, especially Erzhu, who was holding his head high. chest, with a cold and arrogant curve at the corner of his mouth, as if he has already pocketed the victory.

"Then it's almost time to start."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said to the Fourth Kazekage, then took a deep breath, and when he exhaled loudly, the sound had spread throughout the audience and reached the ears of every audience.

"Dear distinguished guests, on behalf of Konoha, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for coming to Konoha to watch the Chunin Selection Examination. Next, the following eight candidates who have passed the pre-selection will conduct the official selection competition. Please enjoy watching."

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen was old, he was not verbose and ordered the game to start after two or three sentences.

Below, the examiner Shiranui Genma talked a few more about the rules of the competition, and then announced that the first competition had officially begun.

Shikamaru and the other six people left the field one after another, leaving only Naruto and Hyuga Neji in the huge competition venue.

The thousands of spectators in the stands suddenly became noisy, and various cheers came and went.

The figures of Hinata Hinata, Inuzuka Claw and others were hidden among the countless spectators, looking at Naruto worriedly.

Hyuga Neji is known as the number one genin in Konoha. He possesses the powerful Byakugan, a blood successor, and the soft fist that allows the Byakugan to exert 100% of its strength. Although Naruto once summoned hundreds of shadow clones in the Forest of Death,

, but who knows if this thing is reliable?

After all, when Naruto was in the ninja school, his three-body technique was sometimes ineffective.

Coupled with his careless and unreliable character, it's strange that he doesn't make people worry.

But at this moment, Naruto's eyes were shining with unwavering light, looking directly into Hinata Neji's white eyes.

In the third qualifying match before, Hyuga Neji beat Hyuga Hinata almost to death, and it took him more than half a month to recover in the hospital. Naruto was already holding back a breath of bad breath.

"You seem to have something to say." Hinata Neji hummed disdainfully.

"If you want to say it, I have already said it" Naruto said word by word, "I will definitely win"

Hinata Neji was amused by him: "Thank you for daring to say such things, but I really can't wait to see your panicked eyes when facing the cruel reality, hahaha."

"Stop being so nagging, I can't help but beat you up."

Naruto roared angrily, and the chakra in his body merged with a small amount of Nine-Tails chakra, setting off a gust of wind around him.

This chakra fluctuation

Hinata Neji's eyes flashed, and he opened his white eyes instantly. The dense green veins around the corners of his eyes were like ferocious tree roots poking out of the ground, revealing their majestic appearance.

In the main stand, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Naruto with a complex expression, and an inexplicable smile on his lips.

Jiraiya had a different feeling. It could be described in three words as a pain in his head.

In the past half month, he taught Naruto the art of channeling. As a result, no matter how he practiced, he could only channel tadpoles. After finally making progress, he channeled a tadpole with two hind legs. That's really awesome. It almost killed Jiraiya.

The resentment coming from Jiraiya was quickly noticed by Feng Huo.

At such a close distance, Feng Huo did not dare to use any sensory ninjutsu. After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen was right beside him.

But even if he guessed, Feng Huo could guess the identity of this masked ANBU.

Either Hatake Sakumo or Jiraiya.

Hatake Sakumo has a calm personality and keeps it in his heart no matter what happens. Otherwise, in the original work, he would not have committed suicide because of being misunderstood, so he would never exude such strong resentment.

In this way, the identity of this ANBU was revealed.

When the undercurrent surges above, the battle below has also begun.

Naruto clenched his fists with both hands and attacked from the front.

He was trained in physical skills by Seal Fire when he was very young, so every punch and kick was powerful and heavy, but in front of Byakugan, no matter how fast he was, no matter how heavy his fists were, they were all invulnerable.

With a smile on his lips, Hinata Neji dodged once to the left and once to the right, like taking a leisurely stroll in a courtyard, avoiding all of Naruto's attacks. Moreover, he would reach out and tap Naruto's body from time to time, like a dragonfly touching water, elegant and freehand.

But these few blows were extremely uncomfortable for Naruto. He could already feel that the chakra in his body was not flowing smoothly.

"Naruto, even if you have chakra that far exceeds that of a genin, so what, in front of these eyes, you can't defeat me."

Hyuga Neji quickly clicked twice more, completely sealing several of Naruto's meridians and acupuncture points.

"Uh"

The meridians were sealed, and the flow of chakra was instantly disrupted. Naruto stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Hinata Neji gave Naruto a friendly slap and knocked him into the sky.
