No matter Itachi and Kisame were about to arrive at the Leaf Village, the Oto ninja and the Uchiha traitorous ninja teamed up to defeat the following ANBU team.
None of this can affect the Chunin Exams being held in Konoha.
The second exam ended, and the first one to complete the exam was naturally Gaara's Suna Ninja team, followed by Orochimaru and the Grass Ninja team disguised as two Sound Ninjas.
Because the bodies of several members of the Kusanagi team that Orochimaru killed were found by Izumo Kamizuki, Orochimaru could no longer pretend, so he directly changed his identity as a Jonin leading the Sound ninja team and continued to lurk in Konoha.
The so-called grass ninja team that cleared the level no longer existed.
Konoha Village, in a wide indoor square.
All the genin teams that passed the Death Forest exam gathered here, and some of them arrived on the last day, looking very embarrassed.
Naruto, Sasuke, and Karin's team passed the test yesterday, and they were not the last ones.
After a night's rest, although the three of them looked embarrassed, their mental state had recovered.
You can almost tell from the status of each team which ones are stronger and which ones are weaker.
Arriving last cannot be considered the weakest, sometimes luck is also part of the strength.
On the high platform, stood the leading teachers of each team. Most of the Konoha ninjas had five teams, one was the Suna ninja, and the other was the Sound ninja.
The Grass Ninja, Rain Ninja, and Taki Ninja were all wiped out in the second game. They were not all dead but failed to pass the level, and some of them were killed.
On both sides were the examiners, including Ibiki and Anko.
Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, has personally arrived at the indoor square for the preliminary round. She stands at the front of the high platform facing the group of genin who have passed the test below.
"There are actually more than twenty people, which is much more than expected!"
Looking at the servants in the middle of the square below, Tsunade's eyes flickered slightly, as if she vaguely recalled the time when she took the Chunin Exam.
Not every Chunin Exam will be attended by the Hokage, but this time the Chunin Exam is special.
Kabuto Yakushi ran away as usual, not after passing the second exam in the Forest of Death, but directly during the second one.
Because Orochimaru has personally contacted Sasuke and discovered that Seeli entered the forest of death.
Kabuto Yakushi was not yet confident enough to have a fight with the Bull Demon King. He bet that if he dared to come into contact with Naruto, he would definitely leave the Death Forest lying down.
So there is no need for him to stay.
What follows is a collision of strength, and no amount of intrigues is necessary.
Tsunade quickly withdrew her gaze, then briefly explained the purpose of the Chunin Exam before leaving.
She is still waiting for information from Kakashi and cannot stay here forever.
Tsunade left, and Hayate Hayate, the examiner of the preliminary round, walked to the high platform and began to introduce the rules of the preliminary round.
"Ahem... let me explain next."
Moonlight Hayate looked like a consumptive ghost and coughed twice, as if he might lose his breath at any time and belch.
Everyone was sweating for him.
After taking a breath, Moonlight Swift Wind slightly calmed down his heaving chest.
He spoke weakly and in a low voice.
"To briefly explain, the first test is about theoretical knowledge from textbooks and gathering intelligence, etc., and the second test is about teamwork and escorting intelligence, etc."
"Then the third exam is a test of personal combat prowess."
"Due to the large number of people, a qualifying match is held before the official match, which can also be understood as a knockout match with a one-round system."
"That means the next step is a one-on-one battle!"
"The winners advance, the losers retire."
Moonlight Hayate's words are very straightforward and easy to understand.
In the final analysis, ninjas are all about strength.
No matter how well you learn the knowledge in theoretical classes, or how well you work in a team, it must ultimately be based on personal strength.
As Yue Guangfeng's words fell, the electronic display above kept jumping out the names of the candidates present.
Everyone looked shocked. Except for Gaara's team, which was in full condition, most of the teams had only rested for about a day.
Some unlucky guys have just completed their mission and arrived at the indoor square.
Everyone noticed that the electronic version was constantly beating and flickering high up, and they couldn't help but exclaimed, "Isn't it right? Start now?"
Moonlight Gale just glanced at everyone lightly.
He said in an indifferent tone, "The enemy will not wait for you to be ready before attacking. Who told you not to complete the task early and gain enough rest time?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts sank.
They cannot refute this statement because it is a fact. Opportunities are not given by others but earned by oneself.
Everyone enters the examination room with the same conditions, but now some people are exhausted, while others are in full condition.
There is only one reason, that is they are too weak!
At this moment, there was a ding sound, and the electronic version hanging on the wall suddenly stopped, and the names of two people appeared on it.
Moonlight Gale looked up and then announced expressionlessly.
"Then the two sides in the first battle are Uchiha Sasuke and Red Copper Armor!"
A game without any surprises.
Uchiha Sasuke's current cell activity is about eight to nine percent, which is very close to ten percent, and there is no Orochimaru's curse seal to bind chakra.
The red copper armor is still the same red copper armor.
The outcome of this battle can already be imagined.
Seeli didn't expose Orochimaru or directly trouble Orochimaru, not because he didn't discover that Orochimaru was disguised as the sound ninja leader.
But he wanted to see that exciting battle with his own eyes!
No matter how many times you watch it on the screen, the battle that can make people burn is Rock Lee vs. Gaara!
As for other battles, Xili didn't care.
Naruto and Sasuke are much stronger than in the original work, but their opponents are still the same opponents as before, the two battles with the least suspense.
Other people’s fights?
From Xili's point of view, it was just a group of children playing house.
"The first round of the battle begins now. Except for the contestants, everyone else should go to the stands to watch the battle!"
Moonlight Gale raised his hand, motioning for Uchiha Sasuke and Red Copper Armor to come forward.
At the same time, let the remaining people leave the square.
"Speaking of which, that guy named Red Copper Armor has some special abilities!" Seeli and Quanmei stood together in the stands.
"Special? What's so special?"
Izumi asked curiously.
The three imps from Team 8 behind her, as well as Naruto and Xianglan behind Seeli, also pricked up their ears.
What is the special ability that the Bull Demon King can remember?
Seeing a group of people looking at him with curious expressions, Seeli couldn't help but feel a little funny. He remembered that the red copper armor was more important because of Sasuke.
If the scene in front of him hadn't overlapped with the image deep in his memory, he wouldn't have been able to remember who the red copper armor was!
"It's okay to tell you, but it can't affect Sasuke's battle."
"The first step in a battle between ninjas is to collect information about the other party."
"Not every enemy that appears is a famous ninja. Even famous ninjas will have trump cards that are not recorded in their notebooks."
Xili reminded seriously.
Everyone nodded hurriedly, still looking at him like a curious baby.
"His ability is to absorb the opponent's chakra, and then convert it into his own power. He can take advantage of it by increasing the chakra."
