Chapter 656
【“Probably, this is my father’s best move, right?” Boruto replied uncomfortably, but Sasuke had no intention of considering his mood at all, and pointed out directly: “Don’t make excuses anymore, or wait until you can create more than a thousand shadow clones like Naruto, then come and refute me.”】
【“...I know!” Boruto replied reluctantly. 】
[“Boruto has another problem. When he encounters trouble, he doesn’t look for the reasons from himself, but habitually makes excuses.”]
[“Compared to his peers, Boruto is indeed a little childish. Fortunately, the situation will be stable in the future. Otherwise, with his personality, it is unknown whether he can live to adulthood.”]
[“He has the blood of the Uzumaki clan, and the Hyuga is also one of the famous families in the ninja world. Logically speaking, shadow clones, a ninjutsu that is only limited by the amount of chakra, should indeed be something Boruto is good at. The reason why he is so hesitant is definitely because he has not trained seriously in normal times.” ]
["The Uzumaki clan has a lot of chakra, but not everyone has the terrifying amount of chakra like Naruto. Sasuke is using him as a standard, which is too difficult for Boruto."]
["I think Sasuke's teaching is good. The number of shadow clones is not the key. The key is to let Boruto not always make excuses. Besides, it's not a bad thing to have a lofty goal."]
[Three days passed like this, and Boruto ushered in the second Chunin Exam. With the idea of letting everyone see how powerful he is, Boruto tried his best to perform the Shadow Clone Technique, but he could only create four before reaching the limit. ]
["The second exam is to grab the flag. You need to defend your own flag while attacking the enemy camp. It is a three-on-three offensive and defensive battle. Therefore, half of the teams will be eliminated in this exam."]
[With Tenten's narration, the second exam officially began. Each team determined their own defense and offensive arrangements according to their own habits and abilities, and thus launched a series of fierce offensive and defensive battles. ]
[Not long after, Konoha's new Ino-Shika-Chou team, Sunagakure's Shinki team, and Kumogakure's Yurui team all stood out and won the game, leaving only Boruto's team and the Kirigakure triplets team still fighting. ]
["Damn! Seeing Boruto so guilty just now, I thought he was really not good at shadow clones, but he can still create four!"]
["At this age, four is actually not bad."]
["That's right, after all, the original intention of the shadow clone is not to let people play human wave tactics, but to make excellent cooperation in battle, this is the correct way to use it."]
["Both defense and offense must be considered, which attaches great importance to the ability to collect and deploy intelligence. Of course, if there is a person who can fight with one person, "The three freaks of Kumogakure, just ignore what I said."]
["The guy called Shinki from Sunagakure has this kind of performance. His ability is actually a combination of sand iron and puppets, which directly overcomes the difficulty of controlling puppets and the problem of easy damage. Coupled with the flow and change of sand iron, he is definitely the leader of the new generation of Kumogakure in the future."]
["The performance of these three little guys from Kumogakure is also remarkable, especially the one called Yurui, who seems to have solved the opponent without much real effort."]
["One team from Konoha, Sunagakure and Kumogakure each advanced, Only Konoha and Kirigakure are left to compete for the last spot, but Konoha is Boruto's team, so Kirigakure has little hope of qualifying."]
["Scientific ninja tools, huh..."]
["Don't be too hasty to draw conclusions, Boruto might not use them, if Mitsuki is a little more serious..."]
["That's still very unfair, a Genin who is at least at the level of a Jonin and can use Sage Mode!"]
["It's ridiculous, when you encounter enemies in the future, do you still expect others to treat you fairly, everyone? They are of similar age. If you can't beat them, don't blame them for being too strong. Just go back and train hard."]
["Because it's an exam, the use of scientific ninja tools is restricted, but when it comes to the mission, there are no restrictions. Maybe everyone will have one by then. After all, Konoha will definitely use this thing to study."]
[According to the discussion of the three before the game, Mitsuki and Sarada will be responsible for attacking the enemy camp, and Boruto will be the only one to guard his own flag. Mitsuki is a little worried about this, but he still follows this arrangement at Boruto's insistence.]
[Fortunately, Boruto is not just showing off. Relying on his keen perception, Boruto was the first to discover the enemy hiding in the dark, and forced all three opponents out with just kunai.]
["Hey, triplets, the sneak attack failed!" Boruto and his four shadow clones stood in front of the three opponents and said proudly: "See, five against three,It's obvious which side has the advantage!"]
[Hearing this, the triplets looked at each other, then smiled and cast shadow clones at the same time. Although each person only cloned two, the three of them added up to a full nine. Then, in Boruto's dumbfounded expression, the nine people drew their ninja swords at the same time: "Now, which side do you think has the advantage?"]
["The Kirigakure team actually used this desperate tactic, not defending their own positions, and directly attacking with all their strength!"]
["Boruto and his team obviously didn't guess the enemy's mind, so the situation suddenly became a big disadvantage."]
["Are you kidding me? Even if Mitsuki's strength is restricted, it is safest to arrange him to guard the house. With Boruto's personality, attacking is more suitable for him."]
["Don't talk about this assumption. Who can't reverse the problem based on the results! If the three Kirigakure team were to guard the house now, and after dealing with the two attackers, they would concentrate their strength to deal with the remaining one, Boruto and his team would also be at a disadvantage. ”]
[“Boruto, another character problem has been exposed. He gets carried away too easily.”]
[“When he is in an advantageous position, he is arrogant. When he encounters a little difficulty, he loses his composure. Even among Genin, this kind of performance is not qualified. Now he is taking part in the Chunin Exam, which is completely forced, just to make up the numbers. ”]
[Boruto’s screams of pain came from the headset. Mitsuki asked Sarada to continue moving forward, while he quickly returned to help Boruto.]
[In his own position, Boruto’s shadow clones were defeated one after another, and his real body was knocked to the ground by the opponent. He could only watch the triplets rush past him and rush towards the flag.]
[Seeing that his own flag was about to fall into the hands of the opponent, Boruto’s mind quickly flashed back to his poor performance in the first game, his teammates’ eager expectations, and Naruto’s congratulatory email. He immediately gritted his teeth and used the scientific ninja tools to perform the Great Waterfall Technique, which broke through the enemy’s formation and interrupted their actions.]
