304. On the eve of the finals
·
Tian Gan Sheng Tu
As night fell, Yanmen squatted outside the Kumogakure Mission Hotel and the Iwagakure Mission Hotel as usual, monitoring the movements of both parties.
"What are Kumogakure and the others doing? Are they investigating Ohnoki? Do they suspect Ohnoki?"
Seeing a group of Kumo ninjas surrounding the Iwagakure Mission Hotel without making any next move, Yanmon couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Aren't you saying you doubt me?"
Yanmen clearly remembers that Shan Mao told him that, could it be...
"You're playing a trick on me to build the plank road openly and secretly seduce Chen Cang?"
Hey, has Raikage learned to understand his mind too?
Rare.
Forget it, I'm too lazy to pay attention to him, let's see how I can cope with all changes by remaining unchanged!
······
In a blink of an eye, the sky was bright.
Nothing happened last night, it was quiet and honest.
A streak of white fish belly appeared on the distant sky, and the red sun jumped up, bringing light to the earth.
The light shone through the darkness, and the crisp crowing of cocks sounded, one after another, very loud, waking people up from their deep sleep.
People took the time to get up, wash up, eat breakfast, take the tickets they bought in advance, and then walked to the Konoha Duel Ground.
Along the way, everyone was shouting and shouting. Gradually, there were more and more people, and the team was getting bigger and bigger. After a while, it was full of people, and they were heading towards the Konoha duel ground.
Today is the day of the joint chuunin exam finals. Everyone got up early in order to occupy a better seat. There are only so many seats in the Konoha Duel Arena. If you go late, there may not even be a seat. .
Of course, I'm talking about ordinary people only, like Tsunade and the Third Raikage, including the daimyo and nobles of various countries, all have their own exclusive areas and seats, so they don't have to compete with ordinary people for seats.
Not to mention the contestants, there is an exclusive rest area provided for them.
The game started at eight o'clock, but at seven o'clock, the duel arena was almost full of people, and there were endless discussions in the venue, which was very lively!
"Have you heard? A total of five of us in Konoha have successfully advanced to the finals."
"Is five people a lot?" someone expressed confusion.
"I can see at a glance that you haven't understood it in advance. Let me ask you, do you know how many people have advanced to the finals in this exam? Ten! There are only ten in total!"
"Nani? There are only ten people? Then don't we occupy half of the places?"
"Humph, of course, we are Konoha." The man raised his chin and said very proudly.
"Okay, don't be so arrogant. People who don't know may think you are the one who advanced to the finals. Tell me, who among us has advanced to the finals, and who from other villages has advanced to the finals." someone urged.
"Hey, don't worry, listen to me slowly." The man pressed his hands to signal everyone not to be anxious. Then he stood up from his seat and said: "Let's talk about our Konoha contestants first. They are known as the 'Golden Shining's Namikaze Minato, 'Blood Red Pepper's Uzumaki Vanilla, 'Hyuuga Ichika' Hinata Shizune, and 'Uchiha Twins' Uchiha Shuichi and Uchiha Kagero!"
As soon as this person finished speaking, someone exclaimed: "Namikaze Minato, isn't he the brother of Lord Enmon and the disciple of Lord Jiraiya? He actually also participated in this Chunin Exam!"
"Yes, that's him. According to rumors, if it weren't for this exam, Namikaze Minato would have been promoted to Jonin!"
"The Uchiha clan is really strong. Of the five places, their clan only holds two. It's really a twin star shining brightly." Someone suddenly said with emotion.
Someone next to him nodded in agreement: "Yes, these guys have a bit of a bad reputation, but their strength is nothing to say. Especially on the battlefield, they are almost all partners worthy of being entrusted with their backs."
"How did you know that?"
The man said proudly: "Because I also participated in the war, and I was still fighting side by side with the Uchiha clan under Lord Yanmen!"
"Wow!"
As soon as these words came out, he instantly attracted the attention of many people around him, especially some girls, whose eyes became bright. Because of that man's words, he immediately got the first right to choose a mate, making all his companions envious. It broke, and a group of people beat their chests.
Damn it, why didn't I follow Mr. Yanmen to the front line? Otherwise it would have been our turn to brag.
······
Seeing that someone was suddenly stealing his limelight, the person who spoke at the beginning quickly added: "Everyone, please be quiet. I haven't finished speaking yet. So, please don't interrupt me. It's nothing special to have participated in a war. I was the same at that time." I also participated, but I have nothing to say.”
"Ahem, everyone, continue to listen to me. In addition to our contestants from Konoha, contestants from other villages cannot be underestimated. We are not sure of victory."
"Ah? No way? Isn't Golden Flash also here? He doesn't have a chance to win?"
"There is a chance, but it was supposed to be a sure win. Who would have thought that Kumogakure actually cheated. They deliberately found excuses to make an elite jounin turn into a genin and then take this exam. I heard that he is already 21 years old this year. He is a full eight years older than Golden Flash! And I heard that he is the son of the Raikage and the successor of the next generation of Raikage!"
"Wow, Kumogakure is so shameless? What about us? We just don't care?"
"How to control it? Apart from being shameless, they are reasonable and compliant."
"This is so disgusting."
"Hmph, they are disgusting. We in Konoha will never be as shameless as them. I, the great Konoha, don't want anything but face!"
"the words said!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone cheered and it was so lively.
The man paused and continued: "In addition to the son of the Raikage just mentioned, Kumogakure has two other people who have advanced to the finals, including the youngest one in this game. His name is Kirabi, and only He is eight years old. Judging from his previous performance, he almost won all the way. The last one is called Onishi Yuichi. This one looks ordinary and nothing special, so I won't introduce it."
"There are two contestants left. They are Naoki Takeuchi from Sunagakure and Takeru Sato from Kirigakure. The strength of these two is average, not as amazing as the previous ones. You can just take a look at it then. ."
After everyone listened, some nodded with unfinished thoughts. At this moment, someone suddenly asked: "Hey, where is Iwagakure? Why didn't I seem to hear the people from Iwagakure just now? Didn't they come to participate?"
The whole place went quiet.
Immediately afterwards, the young man who was responsible for the introduction laughed loudly and said: "Hahahahaha... How could they not come? They came, but because of their saucy tricks, Iwagakure was eliminated in the second round. I didn’t even make it to the qualifiers and was eliminated directly.”
"No way? Iwagakure is so miserable?" Everyone expressed sympathy.
"Iwagakure is no longer good. Onoki is still occupying the position of Tsuchikage at such an old age. Unlike our village, the third generation abdicated early and the fourth generation took power. Now our Konoha's strength is booming, getting stronger day by day, and we will soon be able to return to the throne. Back to the top!"
At this time, Onoki happened to be passing by with the Iwagakure delegation. At this moment, his face was as black as coal, and his whole body exuded the aura of being kept away from strangers. The audience around them closed their mouths and did not dare to mess up anymore. Speech.
Just say this kind of thing in private, but don't say it in front of others, as it can easily cause trouble.
"Humph!"
Onoki snorted coldly, then walked away with the Iwagakure delegation towards the "Five Kage" exclusive viewing platform.
······
At the same time, the Kumogakure Mission, Kirigakure Mission, Sunagakure Mission, Amegakure Mission, etc. entered the venue one by one and walked towards the viewing platform specially prepared for them.
At this time, the time has reached 07:30 in the morning, half an hour before the start of the game.
As the delegations from each village entered the venue, the atmosphere in the venue became more and more enthusiastic. Countless people began to cheer, and the huge sound directly shook the clouds in the sky.
Yanmen followed Tsunade into the venue, and a large number of voices came, giving people a feeling of excitement.
Tsunade turned to look at Yanmen and said with a smile: "It's so lively."
"Yes."
Yanmen looked around and roughly estimated that the number of people in the venue was no less than 1, or even far more. If he were to use the "Tree Realm Birth" trick at this time... Ahem, this idea is too dangerous.
"Let's go and talk to Raikage and the others first." Tsunade pointed to the "Five Shadows" viewing platform and said.
Yanmen shook his head and said, "Tsunade-sensei, you go ahead. I'll go see if all the contestants are here."
"Okay, you'll have to work hard for a while. Also, you have to be refreshed during the battle between Vanilla and Kirabi. You must not let Erwei go berserk, do you understand?"
"Yes, got it."
"That's fine, you go."
Soon, the master and apprentice ended their communication and then parted ways.
Tsunade walked towards the "Five Shadows" viewing platform, while Enmon walked towards the backstage rest area.
Konoha backstage rest area.
Minato, Uzumaki Vanilla, Hinata Shizune, Uchiha Shuichi and Uchiha Kagero are all waiting here. In addition to them, Kushina and Naoki are also here.
"Shuichi, Yang Yan, it will be your turn to play in a moment. Are you ready?"
As soon as Yanmen arrived, he heard Shengshu asking.
After Naoki finished speaking, the eyes of Uchiha Shuichi and Kagero collided, and sparks collided in the void. The two were full of fighting spirit and high morale.
"Shuichi, if you want to defeat me, remember to go all out. It will just let me see what you have learned with Namikaze Enmon in the past few months. Don't let me down!" Uchiha Kagero Be the first to issue a declaration of war.
Now everyone is saying that they are Uchiha's twin stars, but Uchiha Kagero doesn't think so. He is obviously several years older than Shuichi and has a gap of several years. How can he and Shuichi be compared together? .
And he thinks he is stronger than Shuichi, so he is very confident.
On the other side, Uchiha Shuichi also said confidently: "Brother Kagero, don't worry, I will never let you down. When the time comes, don't lose! In addition, remember to surrender when you can't hold on any longer. Otherwise it would be difficult for me to keep it, uh, it would be really hard to keep it."
The Thunder Release Chidori Style is a series of very powerful ninjutsu, but he is still a little reluctant to use it. He often cannot control the power and can easily seriously injure people if he is not careful, so he is kindly reminding him now.
Uchiha Kagero's eyes darkened and he said, "Then just let the horses come over."
"Hey, let me tell you two, this is just an exam. You must not work hard. There is no need. Don't hurt the friendship between you because of this."
Seeing that the two of them were full of gunpowder, others spoke one after another.
Uchiha Shuichi gave a thumbs up, bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Don't worry, friendship comes first, competition comes second."
Uchiha Yangyan also nodded: "Second in the competition."
"That's good."
Everyone immediately relaxed.
At this moment, Yanmen walked out with a smile on his face and joked: "Hey, everyone is here. It seems that they are almost ready. I think some people are already eager to try. Don't look at it. Naoki, I'm talking about you, look at you, you look more excited than Minato and the others, and those who didn't know thought you were going to play."
Naoki immediately curled his lips, "I want to go too, but who says I'm not a genin?"
Kushina snorted in dissatisfaction, "Don't think about it, I am still a genin, but in the end I was not allowed to participate, otherwise I would definitely be the champion this time!"
Not to mention, if Kushina can participate, she is very likely to win the championship.
When the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode comes out, how many people present are Kushina's opponents?Even Minato is no match for Kushina!
In front of Kushina, Minato's only advantage is to rely on the flying thunder god's superb speed to deal with Kushina, but Kushina is also not slow in the nine-tailed chakra mode, and she is wearing a tailed beast coat, so Minato can't even think of hurting Kushina. Sinai.
But it is a pity that Tsunade does not allow Kushina to participate in this exam, otherwise there will be nothing to do with other villages. Kushina alone can sweep the entire field in the second game, and no one can escape the Kyuubi perception.
However, Tsunade also made compensation for this. After this exam is over, Kushina will be promoted to jounin.
Otherwise, Kushina would definitely keep making trouble because of this.
Yanmen didn't pick up Kushina's words. She couldn't answer them, otherwise she would immediately hit the snake with a stick and entangle you, so Yanmen chose to ignore it.
Yanmen turned his gaze to Minato and found that he had a serious face and looked like he was ready.
Yanmen walked up and patted his shoulder, "Minato, don't put too much pressure on yourself, just treat it like an ordinary sparring match. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose. Just treat it with a normal mind."
"Shizune, Shuichi, Kagero, the same goes for you. You don't need to care too much about winning or losing. You just need to fight with style and level. Even if you lose, you still have a chance to be promoted to chuunin. On the contrary, those who win may not be promoted. Understand ?"
When it came to the finals, Yanmen believed that they would be a little nervous inside, so he came over to cheer everyone up and told them that winning or losing the game was not that important. The important thing was to let people see the potential of chuunin in them. , just like Nara Shikamaru in the original work. Although he gave up later, because he performed so brilliantly at the time, he was eventually promoted to a chuunin. At the same time, he was also the first among the twelve little heroes to be promoted. The existence of chuunin.
······
"What are Kumogakure and the others doing? Are they investigating Ohnoki? Do they suspect Ohnoki?"
Seeing a group of Kumo ninjas surrounding the Iwagakure Mission Hotel without making any next move, Yanmon couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Aren't you saying you doubt me?"
