Chapter 293 Chunin Examination
Terumi Mei glanced at Natsume.
After a moment, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she lowered her head again, flipping through the information.
She didn't stop until everything was confirmed.
Terumi Mei stretched and stood up. When she was about to call Natsume, she found him lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, seemingly sleeping.
Are you too tired?
She thought subconsciously.
Although Terumi Mei always said that he was laid-back, he actually didn't think so.
She didn't think that a person who managed Konoha Village and Wanli Sunshine Chamber of Commerce would be very leisurely.
She was very busy dealing with Kirigakure Village by herself.
Terumi Mei slowly walked up to him.
I have to say, he looks really good, but he has a long mouth.
She walked around behind him and slowly massaged him.
Natsume opened her eyes and said, "Mizukage-sama, thank you for your hard work."
"Why didn't you say it was hard when I massaged you before?"
Terumi Mei smiled and asked.
She was talking about playing the master-servant game.
"It was the past, but it's different now."
Natsume pondered for a moment and said, "I still know how to show mercy to women."
"You guys are really..."
Terumi Mei paused, not knowing how to comment, so she simply pinched his shoulder.
Natsume took a breath and said, "If you bite me, why are you pinching me?"
bite?
When did you bite...?
Terumi Mei suddenly turned crimson and said angrily: "I'm so exhausted!"
She withdrew her hands and stopped massaging him.
"Don't you feel bad if I die?"
Natsume stood up, put his hands around her waist, picked her up, and placed her on his lap.
Terumi Mei struggled subconsciously, but quickly gave up.
"It's best to die, so as not to harm others!"
She gritted her teeth and said viciously.
Natsume glanced at her two rows of teeth that were just revealed.
Quite snow white.
It seems I haven't tried it yet.
Terumi Mei, like Tsunade at the beginning, is more orthodox.
Can't accept any other place.
"What bad things are you thinking about?"
Terumi Mei noticed his expression and immediately glared at him.
"What do you think?"
Natsume touched his chin and asked.
Terumi Mei's body trembled, she waved her hands quickly and said, "Not now!"
"why not?"
Natsume raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Have you come to see relatives?
"The first written test will be over soon."
Mei Terumi explained, "The second level starts from the Ninja School and ends at Kirigakure Village. I have to follow."
Natsume was slightly startled.
As expected of a career-oriented Mizukage.
Comparing the two, it seems that he is not serious.
Natsume coughed slightly, but did not tease her any more and said, "I'll go with you."
Terumi Mei nodded, put her arms around his neck, kissed him on the face, and said nothing.
The two hugged each other for a while, then heard a knock on the door.
Terumi Mei quickly stood up and looked at Natsume, her eyes signaling him to leave first.
After he disappeared, he straightened his clothes and shouted: "Come in."
It was Shiro. He came over to inform Terumi Mei that the first level of the written test was over.
On the other side, Natsume appeared at the ninja school one step ahead.
Many people gathered in front of the square to wait.
They were all genin who had passed the first level.
"Hokage-sama."
The examiner in charge of the first level is Anko Mitarai.
In the original work, she is the examiner of the second level.
But now that it has been changed to Kirigakure Village, Terumi Mei will make the arrangements.
"All three of your students passed."
Mitarai Anko continued, "They all performed very well."
"Where are Ino, Sakura and their team?"
Natsume nodded and asked.
Although I know their level, I just worry about everything.
Fortunately, such a small probability event did not occur.
"All passed."
Mitarashi Anko smiled and said, "There are also Hinata Neji and the others."
"That's good."
Natsume ordered, "Go and inform the chuunin and jounin in the second level to set off later."
"yes."
Mitarai Anko turned and left.
The second level is a long way away.
In order to avoid being disturbed and to protect the safety of the candidates, Konoha Village will send many ninjas to follow.
Likewise, there is Kirigakure Village.
There are people in both ninja villages, and they try to be fair and just.
Not long after, Terumi Mei arrived at the square.
She glanced at Natsume not far away and began to enter the process.
Each candidate was given a map, but it was very rough, just a straight line.
I don’t know what the specific situation is.
The main reason is to prevent them from getting lost or running to somewhere else.
Of course, there are signposts on the road.
Terumi Mei explained the rules for the second level.
It's a team battle.
Each ninja team randomly receives a heaven or earth scroll before setting off.
Grab another one on the way, and only after you collect them all can you pass the level.
Fighting is essential along the way.
In the original work, people were killed.
Natsume didn't make any changes, but after all, they were all from his own village, so it would be a pity to die.
So he arranged for many medical ninjas.
Just save him before he dies.
After Terumi Mei finished explaining the rules, the second level officially began.
The genin all ran outside.
Natsume looked away.
Terumi Mei walked up to him and said, "I will follow the candidates to Kirigakure Village and say goodbye."
"Walk slowly, Mizukage-dono."
Because there were outsiders around, Natsume didn't tease her and said seriously, "I will go to Kirigakure Village in the third level."
"Then I'll be waiting for you, Hokage-dono."
Terumi Mei smiled faintly, turned and left.
Mochi Zabuza and others also disappeared.
According to the speed of the genin, plus various accidents along the way, the second level is estimated to last two or three days.
Natsume didn't bother to follow because it was boring after all.
He returned to the Hokage's office and received a secret message from Kakuzu.
It was sent to Wanli Sunshine Chamber of Commerce and then transferred to him.
It said that he had already set off for Cloud Hidden Village and was currently staying at an izakaya, waiting for him to come over.
The two of them went to find Rabbi Kiri, the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki.
Are you in such a hurry?
Natsume couldn't help but smile.
I guess Jiao has accepted some bounty or commission and is making money again.
He himself didn't panic.
Wait until the third level starts before going to Yunyin Village.
Speaking of Cloud Hidden Village, Natsume thought of Black Cat, and he shouted: "Black Cat."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two Yumu people appeared in front of him.
"Take off the mask."
Natsume ordered.
The second Yukito nodded and took off her mask, revealing her delicate and youthful face.
I have to say that from the appearance, she looks quite young, like a girl.
But at this time, she was a little confused and didn't understand why Natsume called her out.
"Are you still used to staying in Konoha Village?"
Natsume said.
"fine."
The two Yumu people told the truth.
Apart from the initial torture, it was indeed pretty normal after that.
Living in the Uchiha clan, the treatment is also very good.
Being the Hokage's bodyguard means having nothing to do all day long.
Occasionally, Natsume would think of it and play a black cat shooting game with him.
There's not much left.
Of course, she thought about running away.
But there is a traitor in her belly, Erwei Mata, so she can only live a makeshift life.
Unless she wants to commit suicide.
Oh no, maybe that’s not possible either.
Because Erwei Mata will stop her.
"What would you do if Konoha Village and Kumogakure Village went to war?"
Natsume said casually.
After the Akatsuki organization started taking action, war became predictable.
When the time comes, Yunyin Village will naturally not stay aloof.
Besides, for Kirabi, the Fourth Raikage would brazenly launch a war.
Although it may not be aimed at Konoha Village.
"Konoha Village is going to attack Kumogakure Village?"
The two Youmu people's expressions changed greatly, and they couldn't help but ask.
"No."
Natsume waved his hand and said, "I don't have this idea now, but I can't guarantee that the Fourth Raikage doesn't."
"..."
The two Yumu people were silent.
She herself prefers Cloud Hidden Village.
But she also understands the strength of Konoha Village, and more accurately, Natsume.
If a war really breaks out, Yunyin Village will probably lose.
Since the Second Tails Brigade was beaten, the two Yuki people have understood that the Fourth Raikage is not invincible.
She looked down at Natsume, and for a moment, she knelt on the ground and put her head on his lap.
"I hope Master you can spare their lives."
"We haven't even fought yet, do you already think Yunyin Village has lost?"
Natsume couldn't help but smile, and he reached out and stroked her soft cheek.
"Of course they are no match for the master."
The two Yuki men sighed secretly and said, "But their strength is also good and can be used by the Leaf Village, just like me."
"If they give in, there's no problem."
Natsume said nonchalantly, "But do you think they will?"
"..."
The two Youmu people wanted to speak but stopped.
It might be possible for others.
But the Fourth Raikage and the others would probably rather die than surrender.
The two Yumu people gritted their teeth and said, "One day, please master, let me go and communicate with them."
Natsume thought for a moment and then agreed.
It doesn't hurt after all.
Especially when he remembered that there were two or three female ninjas in Hidden Cloud Village.
Such as Sami.
This one is no worse than Tsunade.
Ahem.
Natsume didn't mean anything else, mainly because he felt it was a waste.
Keep those who can contribute destiny points.
"Thanks."
The two Yumu people breathed a sigh of relief.
Regardless of whether it works or not, at least there is hope.
Thinking of this, she stood up again and sat in Natsume's arms.
She showed her appreciation by massaging many of them carefully.
Finally collapsed from exhaustion.
Natsume sent her home and got off work successfully.
Three days later, the second level of the Joint Chuunin Examination ended.
In the original work, because there were too many people, a temporary competition was held and some people were eliminated.
But not this time.
It's not that there are fewer people, but Natsume doesn't think it's necessary.
Just a little more.
Play the third level again.
And it saves time.
In the original work, a month passed between the end of the second level and the beginning of the third level.
Not now.
Plus the support of Konoha Village's medical ninjas.
After only three days of rest, he had already regained his strength.
So a week later, Natsume arrived at Kirigakure Village with Fire Country Daimyo Enichikyu.
The reason why I brought a puppet was because neither Fuka Koyuki nor Uzumaki Eina was interested.
And they are too busy.
Now Fenghua Xiaoxue is pregnant again, and Natsume is not willing to let her come and suffer.
Kirigakure Village.
Chunin exam venue.
It was already very lively at this time.
All seats are occupied.
At the high platform, Mei Terumi was wearing a god robe, sitting on her seat, waiting for the game to start.
From time to time she glanced at the empty seat next to her.
That's for Natsume.
But he hasn't come yet.
Terumi Mei couldn't help but mutter, what on earth is this guy doing?
At this time, Natsume took the time to go to Kumogakure Village and meet Kakuzu.
"There is news from Bai Jue that the third competition has begun."
Kakuzu didn't wait for him to speak, and said first, "The Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki Rabbit is at Yunlei Gorge, we can set off now."
"Not urgent."
Natsume waved his hand and said, "I came here to inform you that we will go there tomorrow morning."
The third level of the Joint Chuunin Examination is expected to last two days due to the large number of people.
On the first day, he planned to give Terumi Mei some face and watch it with her.
"tomorrow?"
Kakuzu frowned, feeling a little unhappy.
If it were anyone else, he would just kill them and exchange them for money.
But Natsume couldn't beat him.
And if he is alone, he is not sure that he can capture Kirabi quickly.
If the Fourth Raikage arrives, he might tell him where he is.
He is confident, but he is not arrogant.
That's why he lived so long.
"Um."
Natsume nodded and asked with a smile, "What can I do for you?"
"..."
Kakuzu could only agree.
Natsume left the izakaya, then used the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to arrive at Kirigakure Village.
He put on the Hokage God's robe and then walked slowly to the venue.
Terumi Mei was already a little anxious.
After seeing him, I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him.
Natsume smiled and took the seat next to her.
"green."
Terumi Mei ordered, "Let the announcement begin."
Qing, who had normal eyes, responded, walked to the middle of the venue, and started talking about the rules.
In fact, there are no rules. You can win by knocking down the opponent or losing consciousness.
Soon, the first competition began.
It is worth mentioning that the battle list is randomized by the computer.
Natsume didn't interfere, it was really random.
But the order was arranged by Terumi Mei.
In the first game, you have to perform well and satisfy the audience.
Especially daimyo and nobles.
They are just a group of ordinary people who don't know any strength, they only know that they are flashy and good-looking.
Natsume glanced.
It turned out to be Akimichi Choji.
He thought for a moment and roughly understood Terumi Mei's thoughts.
The Akimichi clan possesses the art of doubling.
If nothing else, the visual effect is amazing.
His opponent was a puppet master from Sunagakure Village.
Natsume doesn't know him, he's not a character in the original work.
As expected, Choji Akimichi won.
However, the puppet master is also pretty good, which makes the game less boring.
By the second game, it was less interesting.
It's Sasuke Uchiha.
When he came up, he activated the three Magatama Sharingan, glared at his opponent, and then ended it.
But his strength surprised many people.
Especially the genin from other villages.
The three magatama sharingan is the symbol of jounin.
It was undoubtedly outrageous for a genin to possess it.
Suddenly, Uchiha Sasuke received the attention of countless people.
He raised his chin slightly, put his hands in his pockets, and left coolly.
Natsume twitched the corner of his mouth, what a stinky guy.
Terumi Mei on the side said with envy: "What a genius."
In Kirigakure Village, not to mention the younger generation, even her generation, there may not be many who can defeat Uchiha Sasuke.
This makes Konoha Village's heritage even more apparent.
Four thousand words.
