Chapter 40 Assessment
"Ahem!" Umino Ikkaku interrupted Kuma's hand's thoughts again and changed his face to an enthusiastic one.
"And here's the good news! Congratulations, you have completed your first A-level mission in your life!"
"And, congratulations on becoming a chuunin!"
???
The A-level mission is not something that should surprise the three of them. After all, the original B-level transportation mission encountered a surprise attack led by the Kage-level ninja Yekura. It would be unreasonable not to upgrade it to an A-level mission.
What happened to Chuunin?
Seeing the confused expressions of the three of them, Umino Ikkaku smiled proudly.
As if by magic, he took out three appointment certificates from his arms and distributed them to the three of them one by one.
Kakugi reached out and took it, reading it carefully.
This is a letter of appointment signed by Jiraiya, the commander-in-chief of the Konoha Ninja Army Camp in the Kawa Country, and next to it is the signature of Nara Shikaku, the general staff of the headquarters.
The appointment letter also mentioned that this appointment will be reported to Konoha Village simultaneously and registered.
In other words, Kakugi is now a true chuunin.
Compared to Kakashi's 8-year-old chuunin, Kakuzu is already outstanding even though he is more than 9 years old and has served as a chuunin.
Chuunin can serve as the team leader of the ninja army and can lead genin to form a ninja team. Kakunoki's age is obviously still a bit young.
Kakugi can be sure that his promotion to chuunin must be based on strength considerations. Probably Kakashi too.
It's just that compared to the status changes brought about by becoming a chuunin, Kakugi is more concerned about the improvement of his own strength.
"I, am I a chuunin? I don't have to take the chunin exam?"
Unlike Kakugi's indifferent attitude, Kumatate held the appointment certificate in his hand in disbelief, looking incredulous.
Although there was excitement and joy on his face, there was also a sense of loss that was hard to conceal.
Umino Ikkaku patted Kumote's shoulder with understanding and comforted:
"The Chuunin Exam is only one channel for ninja promotion, and it can even be said to be the most difficult one. The real purpose of the Chunin Exam has never been just to promote the genin of the village."
"More genin are promoted through wartime, or they are nominated by the leading teacher after accumulating meritorious service, and are promoted after review."
"Being able to be promoted to chunin by the commander-in-chief of the legion during the war just shows that your strength has been recognized by the village."
Umino Ikkaku winked at Kumatetsu.
Sure enough, Xiongshou swept away the gloom just now and smiled happily.
This time, when Ye Cang led a team to raid, out of a team of nearly thirty people, only three genin from the Umino class fought to the end, and they all achieved different gains.
Whether in wartime or peacetime, it is enough for any genin to be promoted to chuunin.
After all, if your strength and achievements are enough, how can you continue to be a genin after completing an A-level mission?
What Umino Ikkaku didn't say was that Jiraiya seemed to be very satisfied with Kazuoki's performance. At the beginning of the meeting, he wanted to directly appoint Kazuoki as a special jounin.
But as soon as he said the words, everyone in the conference room, including Nara Shikaku, began to persuade him.
Umino Ikkaku also said that the improvement was too fast. Especially a Jonin is also a Jonin, which is not only a demonstration of strength and status, but also a heavy responsibility.
Kakugi, who was less than 10 years old, became a special jounin, which was really counterproductive.
In the end, Jiraiya was persuaded by everyone, touched his head, laughed, and gave up the idea of going offline.
But everyone also saw that Jiraiya admired Kadomu, whom he had never met before.
As a result, Umino Ikkaku once again enjoyed the envious and jealous gazes of everyone.
Unlike Kakugi's indifference and Kumate's excitement, Kamata read the appointment certificate seriously, and his face suddenly became a little heavy.
He raised his head and glanced at the teacher and Kumate who were chatting and laughing, and Kazuoki who was leisurely and contented beside him. He finally raised his hand hesitantly and mustered up the courage to ask:
"Umi, Umino-sensei, I, are we going to separate?"
Umino Ikkaku was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed dumbly. Looking at Kanfang strangely, he asked:
"Why do you think so, Kampo?"
Kanfang swallowed and mustered up the courage to speak, his tone full of worry.
"The three genin in the team have been promoted to chuunin, aren't they about to be separated?"
"The teacher who led the team has completed the mission of leading the team. The students have left the team, and the teacher continues to lead the next class of students..."
As he spoke, Hanfang gradually lowered his head and forgot to lower his raised hand.
Kumate looked at Umino Ikkaku hesitantly, his expression clearly asking: Is there still such a thing?
Umino Ikkaku glared at Kumatetsu angrily, and Kumatetsu shrank his head and swallowed what he wanted to say.
Didn’t you see that Kampo was almost crying?
Kakugi hugged Kanfang's neck, tightened it tightly, and said with a smile: "What, Kanfang can't wait to be the squad leader?"
"Nothing!"
Kanfang felt like there was a rocket sitting under his butt. With a "pop" sound, he broke away from Kakugi's restraints and stood up, waving his hands repeatedly.
"I, I just don't want to be separated from everyone..."
Kanfang's face turned red and he bowed to everyone.
"I'm sorry, I know my thoughts are very selfish. Kumate and Kakugi are so good, you will definitely be able to become chuunin..."
It looked like Kanfang was really about to cry.
"Pah!" A big slap hit the back of Kam Fang's head, and Kam Fang, who was expressing his emotions, was stunned.
"No need to apologize, idiot." Umino Ikkaku stroked Kamata's head and said word by word: "When do you need to apologize if you want to be with your companions?"
Kamkata is currently the member of Umino class who has been following Umino Ikkaku for the longest time. Umino Ikkaku sincerely hopes that one day Kamata can return to his former self and become more independent.
"Furthermore, who agreed to the disbandment of Umino Class?"
"Eh?" Han Fang was stunned, his face full of surprise.
"It's just you three rookies. Of course you should continue to follow me, a senior jounin, you idiot!"
The image of Umino Ikkaku suddenly became extremely tall in Kanfang's eyes.
At first glance, it turned out that this kid was overthinking it again.
Umino held his forehead helplessly, his eyes signaling his son to explain quickly.
Kakugi looked helplessly at Kanfang, who had stars twinkling in his eyes, ruthlessly interrupting his fantasy.
"Kampo, do you think there are enough spare genin in the camp now for the three of us to form separate teams?"
"I'm afraid, it's not enough to replace the team that was lost in the previous battle, right?"
"Forehead......"
When Han Fang heard this, he understood and his face quickly turned red again.
But this time, it was shameful.
"Yes, that's right. I'm worrying too much, haha."
Kanfang covered the back of his head where Umino had hit him and smiled sheepishly.
Kumate, who had been silent and could only watch the show in a daze, suddenly realized what he said when he heard Kakugi's speech.
"What, Kanfang, you just like to think wildly. I figured this out from the beginning."
Xiong shook his legs and said carelessly.
Two scrutinizing eyes were immediately aimed at Xiong Shou and stared at him instantly.
Xiong Shou's face froze slightly, but he still shook his legs.
Another scrutinizing gaze stared at Xiong Shou.
"This is the only thing I don't believe."
Han Fang said quietly, ruthlessly finishing the attack.
"Poof!" Xiong covered his chest with his hands and stood up sadly. He seemed to hear the sound of his heart being pierced by a sharp knife.
"Pfft hahaha..."
Seeing Kumote's embarrassment, Kakugi was the first to not be able to hold back, covering his mouth and laughing.
