Outside Honkoyue Restaurant, Jiraiya helped the half-drunk Tsunade and walked out.
Namikaze Minato clutched the necklace of the first generation relic in his hand, looking like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. He thought he would lose if he got two points, but he didn't expect that Tsunade could get one point...
Is this the fat sheep?
It's admirable that Tsunade couldn't stop gambling despite losing every time she gambled.
"Yondaime, you are lucky..."
Tsunade was a little wobbly and almost fell down before taking two steps, but when Jiraiya tried to help her, she pushed her away again.
Immediately, he drunkenly raised his head, looked at Namikaze Minato, and said with a bit of seriousness: "Except for the earliest owner of this necklace, my grandfather Senju Hashirama, two people who aimed at the Hokage have
The winners all met with misfortune."
"But I believe that you, who have successfully become Hokage, will take their wish and one day make Konoha what grandpa hoped, a Taoyuan Township of ninjas, a place that can bring happiness and happiness to everyone.
A peaceful home.”
Tsunade's earnest gaze touched Namikaze Minato a little.
Putting aside the function of the necklace, the meaning it represents is indeed very heavy.
In this situation, Namikaze Minato also put on a very solemn look, and said seriously: "The hope that Tsunade-sama has placed on me, and the end point for which all generations of Hokages have worked hard, are also my goals."
"So please rest assured that I will do my best and dedicate everything to the village."
On the other side, Jiraiya finally found a chance to interrupt, and said with a proud smile: "Minato is my best disciple, so don't worry..."
Probably because she had given away something with such a heavy meaning, Tsunade felt a lot more relaxed inside.
Seeing Jiraiya shamelessly favoring himself, he couldn't help but mocked: "Hey, you guys are so proud of yourself."
"Although I am your disciple, I am completely different from you..."
After being mercilessly complained by Tsunade, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel very embarrassed.
Since this is a fact that is obvious to all, he cannot refute it...
"You really don't save any face. Forget it, forget it, it's time to go back. It's getting late." Jiraiya yelled depressedly.
Namikaze Minato smiled politely and then said goodbye to the two of them.
This party where a piece of equipment was obtained inexplicably was also called to an end...
…
After returning home.
Lying in bed at night, Minato Namikaze finally had time to look at this necklace with mysterious power.
The long emerald green crystal has a texture as warm as jade and exudes a light luster like agate, but it doesn't seem to be made of any kind of material.
"What kind of power does it contain? Can it suppress tailed beasts?"
Namikaze Minato was puzzled, but since it had such an effect, it would be of great help to him before he could control the power of the Nine Tails.
After carefully putting it on his neck, Namikaze Minato fell into a deep sleep.
…
A few days later.
In the Forest of Death in Konoha Village.
After the ANBU ninja who was standing outside to maintain order on the scene explained the rules of the exam, he gave an order and the genin who passed the first written exam poured into the entrance of the forest like locusts.
"Captain, more than 60 candidates have all entered the second examination room..."
At the entrance, an ANBU member reported to an ANBU in a white fox mask who was much shorter than him.
Judging from his height, the captain of the ANBU team is obviously much younger than his team members.
The ANBU ninja wearing a white fox mask nodded when he heard this, and then said in a young voice: "The mission has been completed, let's close the team..."
"Understood." The ANBU member who reported and the other two team members standing not far away looked at each other, used the teleportation technique at the same time, and disappeared.
"The chuunin exam..." the white fox masked captain who stayed on the spot murmured, as if he was briefly lost in memories.
The young man has white hair, and only one eye seems to be exposed from the eye hole under the mask.
After standing there for a short while, the young Anbu suddenly came to his senses and disappeared using the teleportation technique.
Just over an hour later.
Inside the central tower of the Forest of Death, in a room equipped with a monitor, several Chuunin looked at the first figure flashing across the monitor in surprise, all filled with shock.
"One hour, thirty-five minutes and seven seconds!!!"
“Someone new has broken the record!!”
The chuunin captain sitting next to the monitor immediately stood up and looked at the boy in black who flashed across the screen just now, flipping through the ninja information about that boy found in a pile of information.
Card.
"It turns out he is from the Uchiha clan..."
The chuunin captain murmured, briefly flipping through the boy's experience and ability evaluation on the information card, and the shock in his eyes became more and more serious.
Not long after, he pulled out the boy's information card, handed it to another chuunin, and said seriously: "Quickly, report the news that this Uchiha boy broke the record to the Hokage and the others...
"
"yes."
The chuunin quickly took the ninja information card and hurriedly walked out the door.
In the center of Konoha's Death Forest, the area of this tower is not small.
This place is also the third examination room of the Chunin Exam. It has various facilities, including combat venues, lounges, control rooms, reference rooms, etc. Almost everything is available.
Inside a conference room.
Namikaze Minato was sitting face to face with Danzo. Under the bright lights, the two Anbu who were in charge of proctoring the first and third exams were reporting to them on the preparations.
He didn't expect that this guy Danzo would actually become interested in the Chunin Exam.
This is not a good thing.
If there are any extremely talented ninjas, they must not be poached by the Pot King...
Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but cheer up again.
At this time, the door of the conference room suddenly opened, and then a chuunin came in. After bowing to Minato Namikaze, he immediately reported: "Hokage-sama, Danzo-sama, the one who just died in the forest
The record for the fastest candidate has been broken.”
"One hour, thirty-five minutes and seven seconds was broken by a candidate from the Uchiha clan..."
Shimura Danzo was leaning on his cane, with only his exposed left eye raised slightly. There was no special fluctuation in his eyes, and he did not ask the candidate's name. It could be seen that his attention was not here.
After all, this is only the second exam, and the third one-on-one battle is the best stage to show personal strength and potential.
I'm afraid what Danzo is most interested in is the upcoming third exam...
It should be noted that since this Chunin Examination is held within Konoha, the examination process is also very different.
The written test in the first game is not much different from the original work, but the second test only tests the candidate's survival ability and is a solo action. As for the third game, it is the same as the original work, with one-on-one battles randomly assigned.
In the end, several Jonin examiners will evaluate and determine which candidates who performed well in the third individual battle can be promoted and which candidates are temporarily not qualified for promotion.
After the report was completed, the Chuunin decisively handed over the candidates' background information.
Namikaze Minato just took it calmly, with no fluctuation on his face, because the passing time of this second round did not fully represent his strength.
However, when he glanced at the first column of the information card, the name of the candidate, he was suddenly stunned.
