The Avenger of the Uzumaki Clan

Three teams?

If Menma remembers correctly, were there five teams in the original book, or were six teams passing the assessment?

Now cut off half of it?

Only three left?

But in this way, it is understandable that there is no qualifier. The three teams, even including their special seventh team of four, are 10 people, which is one more than the number of people in the main competition in the original book. So The number of people is just right for the main stage.

"So few? Only three teams?"

Naruto on the side also widened his eyes.

"It seems that there were 21 teams participating in the second round, but in the end only three teams passed the second round."

Sakura also said with sadness in her heart.

Only Sasuke still looked indifferent.

‘Then if nothing else happens, the other two teams should be those two. ’

On the way to the hall where he came from before, Menma was also thinking silently in his heart.

as expected.

When entering the lobby.

Wherever you look.

The six figures he saw.

That's Gaara's team and Neji's team.

These two teams are indeed among the teams with the highest overall level in this Chunin Exam.

In the original book, Team Asuma, Team Yuhi Kurenai, the Sound Ninja Team, and Kabuto Yakushi's team that passed the second round of assessment are all gradually in the second round this time.

Menma and others appear.

It also attracted the attention of Gaara, Neji and others.

The moment their eyes met.

It can be clearly seen from Gaara's suddenly focused eyes and Neji's extremely scrutinizing eyes.

Two teams from Konoha Hidden Village and one team from Sunagakure Village.

This is also not much different from the prediction at the beginning of the game.

Originally, the so-called Chunin Exam was for each of the five major ninja villages to show off their muscles.

It was also because there was no qualifying round this time, there were not many jounin present at the scene, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also did not show up.

There was only one main examiner, Moonlight Hayate, who appeared in front of three teams of ten people with several examiners.

"Ahem, first of all, congratulations... Ahem... You three teams passed... the second round of assessment... I am your third round... main examiner... Ahem. . The rules of the competition... Ahem, I guess I didn't want to give it up. People... Ahem, you can bring it up now... Ahem.

Moonlight Hayate looked like he was in the advanced stage of lung cancer, and his coughing posture made people wonder if this guy would just cough his lungs out.

After Yue Guangfeng said these words, he paused for a while. After seeing that no one of the ten people lined up below made a sound.

"Then...ahem...let's start drawing lots."

Moonlight Gale nodded, motioned to a subordinate on the side to take out a cardboard box, and then drew lots for the ten people below.

Ten lottery numbers, corresponding in pairs.

And because there are no qualifiers, the order of the draw for the main draw is also very different.

The lottery numbers drawn by each of them.

The moment the final results are announced.

Menma's pupils also showed a hint of surprise.

Because in the second duel, it is clearly written that Gaara vs. Namikaze Naruto!

What is written in the first scene is Uchiha Sasuke versus Hyuga Neji.

A direct exchange of opponents between the four.

Others didn't feel anything at all, but Menma just felt a little strange.

‘Is this also destiny? ’

Menma thought a little funny.

As for Menma himself, he was drawn with the fifth pick, which was the last one to appear. His opponent was Rock Lee, whom Menma always needed to feel a headache for. As mentioned before, without using the Nine-Tails Chakra in the case of.

The current Menma could not possibly be Rock Lee's opponent.

How strong Xiao Li is after opening the five doors can be seen in the original work.

Not even a jounin could match him.

Of course, during this period, Xiao Li's body could not afford to open five doors. From a purely physical perspective, four doors was Xiao Li's current limit.

But even a four-door.

It is difficult to say that Menma can face it head-on. Not to mention, the speed alone is not something that the current Menma can compare to. However, in this assessment, Menma does not need to worry about this aspect. This is not only because it doesn't matter if he loses directly, but also because he most likely does not need to appear.

Because their duel is in the last game.

As long as Suna Ninja's plan remains unchanged.

In the second matchup.

Gaara will directly transform into a tailed beast during the duel.

The Konoha Collapse Plan will be officially launched, where will it be their turn to appear? The same goes for Tenten versus Temari in the third game, and Sakura versus Kankuro in the fourth game.

Others don't know.

Menma knew very well that the key to the main match this time was Gaara versus Naruto in the second match.

"The above is the list of opponents for the main competition. Ahem... Next, you... Ahem... have a month to prepare... When the time comes, I hope you... can all bring... a wonderful match..."

Moonlight Gale glanced at the faces of each person below one by one, still speaking in that extremely weak tone.

And that was the moment when the list of opponents was announced.

The ten boys and girls below all locked onto each other's opponents.

Especially Gaara, who looked at Naruto with a ferocious look in his eyes, as if he wanted to fight right here.

Temari and Kankuro on the side both showed a very nervous look in their pupils.

Naruto didn't have any idea, he just thought it was a good thing to fight with ninjas from other villages, not to mention that they had interacted with each other some time ago and were identified by Naruto as strong opponents.

Naruto's heart was already eager to try.

Lee also looked at Menma with shining eyes.

Before, the person he always wanted to defeat was Neji.

Now Menma is also within the sniper range, after all, he can suppress Uchiha and the son of the Hokage to get the first place in this graduating class.

Just now, I heard from my teacher that Menma entered the Death Forest alone as a team.

This courage, this strength.

‘Oh, my youth is about to burn. ’

The blazing sight is like a ‘rising flame’ that can be seen by the naked eye.

Menma also shook his head helplessly in his heart.
