Chapter 113 Individual Competition
The Sandaime knew Haneda's level of illusion and was not surprised. He continued to read out the next opponents:
"The next match is between Uchiha Obito and Might Guy."
"Yoshi, I didn't expect my opponent to be Runtu!"
Kai smiled, revealing two rows of dazzling teeth.
"You bastard watermelon-head, how many times have I told you that my name is Uchiha Obito! Uchiha Obito!!"
"OK! Uchiha Runtu-san, let's start!"
Gai made the Seal of Opposition, and Obito glanced at the Sandaime on the stage, gritted his teeth, and also made the Seal of Opposition.
At this time, a special jonin raised a red flag and was about to let it fall when Lin's voice was heard.
"Come on, Obito!"
Obito looked over and blushed slightly.
He noticed the encouraging looks from Haneda and Kakashi again, and he became more determined to defeat Gai.
But at this moment, the red flag had already fallen, and Kai kicked sideways, ending Obito's fantasy.
The goggles on his forehead also fell to the ground.
"The winner is Might Guy." The special jonin announced the end of the game.
Haneda glanced at the hopelessly love-brained girl lying on the ground and sighed helplessly.
Then he walked forward and helped Obito up.
"Are you okay, Oh Beato?"
"It's okay! I was just ambushed by that bastard watermelon-head again!" Obito looked at Gai indignantly.
Before he was ready, Kai took action. Despicable!
"Ah~ It's obvious that I was too distracted..." Haneda sighed silently for his love-brained friend.
It was a familiar scene that reminded him of his childhood.
Obito was also kicked away by Gai. To be honest, he hasn't changed at all.
At this time, Kakashi also came over.
He looked at the embarrassed Obito and habitually taunted him:
"Hey~ tail, where are your majestic Sharingan?"
"Idiot Kakashi! I was ambushed! I didn't dodge!!" Obito argued loudly.
But what he was greeted with was still Kakashi's ruthless ridicule.
Lin also came over and asked with concern: "Obito, are you okay?"
"Not at all, Rin-chan!" Obito immediately changed his attitude when facing Rin.
Looking at Obito who was still being treated by Haneda, Lin sighed helplessly:
"Don't be distracted next time, Obito. You won't become Hokage if you do that."
"Next time for sure." Obito said with a smile.
Later, Kakashi fought against an unknown Genin and killed him instantly.
Asuma and his friends also passed the test successfully.
After the preliminaries were over, the Sandaime also announced the time for the individual competition - one week later.
…………
Haneda and Obito were on their way back.
Thinking that all the familiar people except himself had passed the preliminaries, Obito put his head in his hands and walked, "inadvertently" saying:
"Hey, Haneda, how do you think we can improve our strength quickly?"
"Rapidly improve your strength? Oh, Bitto, do you want to pass the Chunin Exam as soon as possible?"
Haneda glanced at Obito, and seeing that his eyes were evasive, he knew what he meant.
He was defeated by Kai, who was also the last in the group, and was mocked by Kakashi. Even Asuma, who he threatened to beat up before, passed the test...
There's a high probability that Obito is feeling uncomfortable.
"Yeah, if I'm not even a Chunin, how can I become Hokage?"
When Obito thought of Haneda teaching Minato how to use Chidori, his eyes lit up.
"How about you teach me some more powerful ninjutsu, Haneda? How about that!"
"Um~ I'm developing a ninjutsu recently...Forgive me, Obito, maybe next time."
Haneda gently tapped Obito's forehead and smiled apologetically.
"You tapped my forehead again! Do you think I'm stupid and don't want to teach me anymore?!" Obito said.
Haneda used to teach him often, but somehow, everything changed after Haneda went to the Rain Country.
He always stayed alone in the Forest of Death, practicing ninjutsu.
Seeing Haneda's hesitation, Obito felt that it was not good to keep pestering Haneda, so he turned his head and said:
"Well, seeing that you have something important to do, I won't look for you anymore. I remember that Minato-sensei's Fire Style is also pretty good."
"Well, Sister Kushina is also very angry."
"Come on, Haneda, go home and get some rest."
…………
A week later, the individual competition was held as scheduled.
In the morning, the spectator seats were already full of people, including representatives from various countries, businessmen, politicians, and residents of Konoha.
In addition to the purpose of avoiding war, the Chunin Exam is also to attract other countries to hire Konoha ninjas.
This is also one of the hidden reasons why Konoha often joins forces with other ninja villages to hold the Chunin Exams.
Ye Cang, the representative from Sunagakure, brought Maki and others to the viewing location.
This is a location closer to the Sandaime.
At this time, the Sandaime came over with the Anbu guards.
He noticed that Ye Cang and the others were always looking towards the entrance of the individual competition, and asked with a smile:
"There are ninjas in Sunagakure that you're interested in?"
Ye Cang said respectfully:
"I heard that Hatake Kakashi from your village defeated Maki and the others. I want to see what kind of genius Hatake Kakashi is."
"Really?" The Sandaime understood Sunagakure's purpose, took a puff of cigarette silently, sat down, and waited for the game to begin.
Both Haneda and Kakashi have strength beyond that of ordinary jonin, and with the addition of their captain and teacher, the people from Sunagakure have little chance to take action.
What's more, there are few outstanding ninjas in Sunagakure, so the Sandaime is not too worried about this.
Soon, twelve people from Haneda came in and stood in a row.
Seeing this, a jonin in charge of the third match jumped down from the spectator seat.
He took out a tube of sticks and said:
"The opponent for the individual competition is determined by drawing lots. The twelve lots are divided into six groups, A and B, and each one is marked with a number from one to six."
"The corresponding A and B numbers will be used as opponents to determine the top six."
"The judges will score the top four based on their performance. If you are not satisfied, you can challenge the top four decided by the judges."
"But you only get one chance."
"Now let's start drawing lots."
Haneda glanced at Kakashi, and Kakashi also looked over at him.
They walked forward without hesitation and drew their own slips from the tube.
Haneda is the top one and Kakashi is the top two.
"I'm sorry that I can't fight you the first time, Kakashi." Haneda said regretfully as he looked at the sign in Kakashi's hand.
As A1, he was the first to appear.
"Then see you in the afternoon. We'll meet in the finals or semi-finals." Kakashi said with a smile.
After the two of them finished drawing, Kai, Asuma and the others also stepped forward to draw lots.
Asuma is Odd One, Gai is A Three, and Hong and Lin face off, both of them are Six.
Kakashi and Kai's opponents are all Genin from other ninja villages.
When the draw was completed, everyone except number one left.
Only Haneda and Asuma were left.
Looking at Haneda, Asuma shouted excitedly from four or five meters away:
"Brother Haneda! I never thought I would have the honor of being your opponent. It really makes my blood boil!"
Looking at Asuma's excited face, Haneda didn't know whether Asuma was lucky or unlucky to meet him.
For a moment, Haneda didn't reply.
At this time, Obito, who was standing next to Minato in the spectator booth, shouted loudly:
"Haneda, come on! You must beat Asuma up for me!!"
"I understand, but there's no need to beat him away." Haneda looked at Obito and used illusion to convey his meaning through the air.
