Naruto's Endless Pretense

Naruto collapsed on the table, holding his head in his hands, sweating profusely.He had never felt so scared, not even Sasuke's previous behavior of kicking someone when he disagreed with him had never scared him.Because he knew that Sasuke's expression was completely fake, and Sakura must have noticed it.

Sasuke would often lie to him, even if he didn't know what he was doing secretly, he would still take care of himself.But the test paper in front of me was different. The black and white words on the paper would not change, just staring at me blankly.

"Damn it! Why is there a written test? It hurts!"

Naruto couldn't help but howl, and then a piece of chalk hit his head.

"Uzumaki Naruto, one count."

Sasuke said to a chuunin in sunglasses holding a roll call list next to him.The sunglasses chuunin quickly found Uzumaki Naruto's name on the early roster and put a big X on the back.

"I would like to emphasize the rules of the exam to you rookies. Each group has three demerit opportunities. Cheating, making loud noises, or even making actions that I don't like will be demerited once. If you are If the person is penalized three times, the entire group will be disqualified from the exam. Similarly, if the same person is penalized twice, the entire group will also be disqualified."

Naruto couldn't help but trembled when he heard the rules.Sasuke was really merciless and remembered him just once.

"There are a total of ten questions in the entire test paper, and the time is two hours. The tenth question will be announced by me when the countdown is 45 minutes. How about it, does it sound familiar? It is similar to the requirements of the last exam."

Sasuke patted the paper and showed a meaningful smile.

"That's right, let me make it clear. This exam is still to test your ability to collect information as a ninja. Among the many candidates, there is a Chuunin teacher we have arranged to be able to answer the questions. If you can't answer the question, Cheating is your best option.”

Sasuke suddenly threw another piece of chalk and hit Gaara on the head.Gaara looked up and saw Sasuke's disappointed eyes.

"Sand Ninja Gaara remember this once. Don't blatantly cheat when I'm talking. Sun Eyes are such a useless method."

After saying that, Sasuke looked back at the other candidates.

"I want to emphasize one point. We examiners will acquiesce in some relatively successful cheating, but you should also pay more attention to the methods and candidates. We will not show mercy to those with poor cheating methods and directly pick them out. There are also some people I know well. I will pay double attention."

After clapping their hands, several ninjas wearing black clothes and masks who looked like ANBU suddenly appeared in the examination room, standing next to Naruto and other people who had taken the examination with Sasuke last time.

"Do you want to be so targeted?"

"I can't help it, I just want to avoid suspicion. Inuzuka Kiji once." Sasuke smiled and waved his hand.

"Then let the exam begin!"

※※※

While Sasuke was presiding over the first exam, Tsunade was inspecting the venue for the second exam.It was an abandoned area around Konoha, with an environment of dangerous buildings and forests. It was a perfect place to use it as an examination venue that might cause damage.

The most important thing is that the barrier class once established a barrier here to prevent anyone from entering this dangerous area.With just a few modifications, it can be transformed into the kind of barrier needed by the illusion class.

"After all, it's really a random plan."

Tsunade looked at the machine in front of her that could link Sasuke and Yakumo into the barrier, then looked at Yakumo sitting next to her in a wheelchair, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It will be alright, Hokage-sama. Mr. Sasuke is very capable. There is absolutely no problem with a device of this level."

"That's not what I'm talking about. I was worried about whether I would mess up during the invigilation, that random kid."

Tsunade said as she put her hand on what looked like a touch screen on the machine, and the ninjas from the Yamanaka clan who were on standby immediately came up.

Activate the device before joining other ninjas to form seals.

"Well, it's a really powerful device. It can indeed feel the entire field. Coupled with Sasuke's extraordinary perception and chakra, it would be very simple to end a battle at any time."

Closing her eyes, Tsunade felt it and then withdrew her hand, looking at Yakumo with some worry.

"But this device requires a lot of mental energy. Girl from the Kurama family, can your body handle it?"

"It's okay. I've already done the test before. If it's just an exam, I can still survive."

In response to Tsunade's worries, Yakumo responded with a strong smile.

"My dream is to become a genjutsu ninja that surpasses Kurenai-sensei, and then repays Kurenai-sensei and Sasuke-san well. If I can't help even this level of help, it's impossible for me to move forward."

"Really? Don't force yourself too much. This barrier is almost entirely created based on your illusions, and it must be very expensive. Just say something if you can't hold on."

Yakumo's attitude made Tsunade uneasy. No matter how she looked at it, it just felt like she was forcing herself.But at this point, there is no other way.Just when Tsunade shook her head and wanted to continue checking the venue, a voice came from behind.

"Lord Hokage!"

"Ah, it's Kamizuki Izumo. Aren't you supposed to be helping Sasuke proctor the exam? Why are you here?"

Tsunade looked back and saw Izumo Kamizuki running towards him panting.

"Lord Hokage, it's an emergency. After we completed the mission, we found suspicious people wandering around the village. I'm coming back to deliver the information, and Ziti is following him."

"Suspicious people?"

"Yes, if I read correctly, those eyes should be Sharingan."

When Kamizuki Izumo said these words, his tone was very depressed.Tsunade's expression immediately became serious after hearing this.

Apart from Sasuke, only Uchiha Itachi has a full pair of Sharingan eyes.Are people from the Akatsuki organization coming back?What is their purpose?Naruto or Sasuke?A series of thoughts flashed through Tsunade's mind.

"Immediately give an order to Sasuke and Kakashi to prepare for the battle and come to the Hokage Building to assemble. But don't make too much noise. The Chuunin exam is going on, so there can be no mistakes. Yakumo, I will ask Kurenai to accompany you this time. Let’s work on the second exam.”

Yakumo had no objection to Tsunade's arrangement.To deal with the Sharingan, you must have the Sharingan, and Sasuke and Kakashi are the only apparent Sharingan holders in the village, and they are the necessary combat power to deal with Uchiha Itachi.

"Anyway, please don't make any noise or panic. I will set up a special team to deal with this matter."

Tsunade pressed down with both hands and let the people in the barrier class and genjutsu class continue working.Then he looked at Shenyue Izumo nervously.

"You said Gangzitie is following you, right? Where are those two suspicious guys?"

"According to the latest information sent back by Gangzi, the two people first went to the meatball shop, then to the Ichiraku Ramen House, and then to the Uchiha Clan's residence. Now, they should be on their way..."

"Itachi, what are you doing at the ninja school? There's nothing interesting except brats, right?"

Outside Konoha Ninja School, the fire and water duo of the Akatsuki organization were looking at the statue of the Third Hokage at the gate.Neither of them was wearing Akatsuki uniforms, but neither of them used hats to cover their faces at this moment.

"That's what you said wrong, Kisame."

Itachi walked around behind the statue and stretched out his hand to gently touch the rust in the dark.

"Children are the purest people in the world, but when we grow up, that pure kindness will be quietly stolen by the years and replaced by a mottled heart."

"My goal this time is to be in this school."
