Naruto's Endless Pretense

Chuunin are the backbone of the entire ninja village. They have certain strength and fighting acumen. They are capable of many tasks that are not too difficult and can perform daily maintenance of the village well.When the Chunin Examination was held in Konoha, due to manpower shortage, almost all Chunin were mobilized, some to serve as examiners, some to conduct surveillance, and most to maintain public order.

Their power may not be great, but they are the cornerstone of the village.

Sumaji Hayato is a member of the huge Chunin group.His talent is average, and he is just an ordinary chuunin at the age of 35, which is also the promotion speed of most ninjas.Not all people can change their strength in one year like Konoha Xiaoqiang.

Because of his mediocre strength, the job assigned to Hayato during the Chunin Examination was to inspect the commercial district that had been rebuilt after the last disaster.It was an area where civilians gathered, and there were no important facilities. Not surprisingly, the job was not difficult, or rather easy.

If he were a motivated ninja, he might complain that the village looked down upon him.In fact, half a year ago, even if Hayato was a very stable man, he would want to take on more important tasks for the village.Just patrolling the streets and leaving it to the eliminated genin is enough.

But Hayato would never have such thoughts now.Half a year ago, he was stabbed twice in the mouth during a dangerous mission. After reading the medical examination report afterwards, Hayabusa knew that a hole had been poked in his heart and lungs at that time.

Such an injury was almost hopeless after being delayed for a long time before being sent to the village, but Hayato still firmly remembered the look in the eyes of that unreasonable young man when he became more and more awake due to his return to the light.That confident and arrogant look gave him hope for life.

After being rescued by Sasuke, Hayato's attitude towards life changed a lot.Compared to before, Hayato behaves more steadily and pays more attention to family life.He is still working hard for the future, but it does not feel like he is giving everything he has.

Some say he has become cowardly, but Hayato doesn't care.After experiencing death once, Hayato understands the value of living.He has a lovely wife and a well-behaved daughter. Being able to spend every day with them safely is the happiest thing for Hayato.

The so-called future is actually the future present. Hayato, who has wandered in nothingness, chooses to firmly grasp the present.

"Anyway, there are really few people."

It was still daytime, and most of the shops on the commercial street were already closed.Today is the day of the Chuunin Exams, and it is also a rare opportunity for civilians to see ninjas in action.Therefore, most businesses that can get tickets choose to close for half a day and go to the venue to watch the game.

Looking at the picturesque scenery of the new street, Hayato's nerves relaxed.His eyes were still scanning the surroundings instinctively, but his mind had gradually drifted to other places.He thought of his wife who tidied his clothes before going out and his daughter who stayed away all night.

Yukio lost in the second preliminary round of the Chunin Exam, and Hayato was originally worried that this girl would be too disappointed.However, Yukio's reaction was much calmer than expected, and he just left without saying a word yesterday evening.He didn't go home until this morning.

"Really, where did that kid Yukio go? He didn't go directly to watch the game, did he?"

"No, she has probably gone to hell."

The sudden sound in his ears made Hayato tremble, but then a scarlet hand stretched out from his chest made him lose the power to tremble.

"Are you from Yun Ninja?"

With his back to the enemy, Hayato couldn't see the opponent's face or forehead, so he could only guess from possible directions.On his deathbed, Hayato hopes to die clearly, and if possible, it would be best to leave information to the village.

"It's a pity, I'm a ninja from Konoha, Sakon from Class No. 11."

Hayato's eyes widened when he heard this. He never thought that he would die at the hands of a ninja from the same village.And remember that the captain of Class No. 11 should be the Uchiha Sasuke who saved his life.

"You, you are Lord Sasuke's subordinate!"

"Yes, Sasuke-sama asked me to bring you a message."

Sakon pulled his hand out of Hayato's body, and Hayato immediately collapsed to the ground as if he had lost his support. Sakon leaned down close to Hayato's ear.

"Sasuke-sama said that although he is sorry, he saved your life, and it is time to return it to him now."

Hayato struggled and turned around to look at Sakon, stretched out his hands and grabbed Sakon's collar.Sakon didn't resist, and just let Hayato leave blood marks on his clothes.

"What's wrong with her Yukio!"

"I told you that she is already dead. This is the only consequence for going against Sasuke-sama.

. Sakon said calmly. "I've been to your home too. A family should be in order." "

"what!"

Hayato took a deep breath, and the next moment he coughed up a large mouthful of blood. Tears and blood were mixed together and distributed clearly.After a while, his eyes lost their luster. Seeing this, Sakon pushed the body against his body away with his hands.Hayato's hands firmly grasped the clothes, and Sakon took off his coat and covered the corpse's face.

"Calculating the time, it's time for Xianglin to come on stage. There are still two families, so we can't be so leisurely anymore."

"Did something happen?"

Sasuke felt a little overwhelmed by the silent meeting.But soon the audience burst into loud cheers.

"Is that Sasuke Uchiha?"

"Yes, look at the Uchiha clan emblem on his hat. That person is Uchiha Sasuke who defeated Orochimaru! A super genius who has not appeared in decades!"

"Ah, could that be the legendary Sharingan?"

"Idiot, the Sharingan is red, it's just an ordinary eye now."

Sasuke's arrival pushed the atmosphere in the venue to a climax, and all the spectators who came here were discussing.The Xiaoqiang students in the same class also laughed knowingly, only Naruto was still aggrieved.

"Damn that guy, he's still so pushy!"

Without staying in the field for too long, Sasuke directly carried Xianglin and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to reach the highest point of the stand, where the Hokage and Raikage were.

"Sorry, mother-in-law. I'm late again."

Sasuke smiled and greeted Tsunade, but ignored the Raikage and the Third Generation sitting beside him.The irritable Raikage immediately wanted to teach this impolite boy a lesson, but the witty Darui immediately stopped the Raikage.

"What's going on, Sasuke? It's just yesterday's meeting. Today, such an important exam is so late."

The angry look on Tsunade's face made Sasuke take two steps back.Subconsciously, he wanted to wave, but he could only smile bitterly because he was still holding Xianglin.

"Well, the reason is more complicated. In short, can Xianglin and the others be allowed to take the exam?"

"It's too late, their spots have been removed."

Tsunade held her trembling breasts with both hands and turned her stern face to the other side.But Sasuke quickly used the teleportation technique to move to the front of Tsunade.

"Don't say that. This kid almost risked his life just to be able to take this exam. How about giving him a chance?"

Xiang Rin, who was held in Sasuke's arms, was blushing, her limbs were weak and weak, and she looked extremely weak no matter how she looked.Tsunade looked serious at this.

"Are you sure? Playing in this state may be life-threatening."

"Ah, I'm sure."

Sasuke also changed from a playful and smiling expression to a serious expression.Tsunade was silent for a few seconds and finally chose to believe her disciple's judgment. After all, Sasuke's medical ninjutsu was not far behind hers.

"It's best to let Xiang Rin play first. Remember, the original opponent is Temari, right?"

"No, I already won the first game."

A jealous voice came from the side of the stand. It turned out to be Temari who rushed over after seeing Sasuke.After a perfunctory greeting to Tsunade and others, Temari couldn't wait to rush up and grab Sasuke's ear.

"You bastard, how long are you going to hold a girl like this! You're still holding her like a princess!"

"Hey, hey, don't pull my ears every time! And I can't let go in this situation."

The Sandai and Raikage sitting next to them couldn't help but twitching at the corner of their mouths when they saw the two young people having a fight regardless of the occasion.Tsunade, on the other hand, roared causing both of them to stop.

"Okay, if you want me to please you, I can find a place casually after the exam is over. This is the venue for the Chuunin exam, so please stay calm!"

"Yes!"

Seeing both of them standing up straight and timidly, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief and started thinking about the new exam list.

"It is no longer possible to immediately rearrange a suitable list. However, being able to deal with various emergencies is also a necessary quality for ninjas."

"Then let Xiang Rin play in the next game, and the opponent will be Sakura, who is ranked first. Let's do it like this."
