Chapter 89 Due diligence
Of course, these trivial matters have nothing to do with Daimaru, and he couldn't control them even if he wanted to.
It was nearing noon. After eating and drinking, after a while, the sleepiness caused by the increase in blood sugar swept over his body. Daimaru put down the ninjutsu scroll he had read several times and looked out the window at the white clouds like cotton candy. Unknowingly, He closed his eyes.
During a carefree nap, Daimaru seemed to have dreamed of something good. He smiled happily, and the corners of his mouth relaxed unconsciously. His saliva flowed out uncontrollably and fell on the edge of the pillow, soaking his cheeks and bringing a chill. The discomfort made Daimaru suddenly wake up.
"There's someone!" 』
Before even opening their eyes, the two puppets that were waiting for their master's summons by the bedside stood upright and guarded Daimaru with vigilance.
"do not worry!"
A voice that was obviously out of breath came over, and the familiar tone made Daimaru put down his mind a little. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was the examiner of the third test, the special jounin of the disease - Moonlight Hayate.
"It turns out it's the examiner who came here unexpectedly. What's wrong?"
Daimaru was relieved that he was not suddenly attacked by Gaara. It would have been a big loss if he had been "sacrificially sacrificed" by his brother-in-law at this time.
"Regarding the third test of the Chunin Examination, due to changes, for the sake of fairness, I need to inform you in advance."
"Please say!"
Daimaru looked attentively.
"The only candidates who advance are No. 8 Yakushi Kabuto and No. 9 Daimaru. Due to the order of the draw, they need to play one more game. However, something unexpected has happened now..."
Moonlight Gale couldn't help but cough a few times before continuing,
"Kabuto Yakushi, the No. 8 candidate, has withdrawn from the Chunin Exam, so you will win without a fight and start the quarterfinals battle directly. In the fourth round, No. 7 Temari and you, No. 9, will appear..."
"This is a good thing. With one less game, I can be more relaxed..."
"As long as you have no objections!"
Moonlight Gale paused for a moment,
"You are the only one directly affected by this incident, so I need to notify you in time to avoid affecting the targeted preparations! You can ignore Kabuto Yakushi and prepare directly for the match with Temari."
"I know, thank you, examiner, for reminding me!"
Daimaru said calmly.
"In addition, considering your injury, please rest peacefully for the time being. We will arrange the best treatment plan and try not to affect your practice! However, please cooperate with the doctor's instructions and do not act on your own, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
"clear!"
Listening to opinions with an open mind is one of Daimaru's strengths, especially when he was caught sneaking out of the hospital and wandering around, and was warned for provoking grass ninjas for no reason. No matter how dishonest he was, he was disrespectful.
"Very good, I wish you good luck in the exam!"
After saying that, the examiner Yue Guangfeng left with a teleportation technique.
Looking at the open window and the gauze curtains fluttering in the breeze, Daimaru shook his head helplessly.
"Konoha ninjas don't like to go through the door, do they like to enter and exit through the window?"
Not only that, some of the chakra thread detection methods arranged in the ward did not alert Daimaru that an enemy had sneaked in.
If Moonlight Hayate hadn't actively leaked a trace of his aura, Daimaru wouldn't even have noticed it.
Even the patient who was instantly killed by Ma Ji's Wind Blade was still a special jounin with considerable strength, not a master that Daimaru could predict at all.
Seeing Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto killing chuunin and jounin like chickens and dogs, I can let go of the idea that chunin and jounin are weak chickens.
It's the protagonist's prerogative to challenge a higher level. It's better for others to be more honest.
pity……
"I don't know how many days Moonlight Hayate can live. Will he be killed because he was exposed during the tracking investigation as expected?" 』
Because of a trivial matter, he came here to inform him. At least Konoha Village upholds fairness on the surface. If he had a choice, Daimaru really didn't want this guy to die inexplicably.
…
Earlier, in the private room of the most famous "Sake House" in Mingcha Street, Sarutobi Asuma had a sad face, touched his empty wallet, and helplessly watched Akimichi Choji put one piece of fat meat after another. Eat the barbecue slices.
"Although I promised to treat you, can't you be more polite? I'm going to be bankrupted by you..."
"It's rare to have the pleasure of eating barbecue, how could you just let it go? Teacher Asuma, you are so naive!"
Holding his greasy chopsticks and staring at the meat slices that were about to be grilled without raising his head, Akimichi Choji replied without hesitation.
"It's morning now. If you eat too much greasy food, be careful of indigestion!"
"It doesn't matter. As a descendant of the Akimichi family, I have already developed a steel stomach, and it's easy to grill barbecue."
"All right!"
The depressed Sarutobi Asuma gave up the idea of persuasion. It was too difficult to get Akimichi Choji to give up the grilled meat that was about to reach his mouth.
After a glass of sake, which slightly relieved the depression of being about to go bankrupt, Sarutobi Asuma looked at the other two students who were in a bad mood.
"Are you still upset? Teacher, I didn't say anything. You don't have to be so unhappy. If you think about it, newbies will always suffer a lot when they take the Chuunin Exam..."
It is inevitable that people whose strength is suspected will always be deliberately targeted.
"But Sasuke has advanced, and even Naruto and Shino can pass..."
Yamanaka Ino sighed.
They are also new genin this year. Three students broke out of the siege of powerful enemies and entered the third trial. Why was Class 10 completely wiped out?
"To be honest, I am very satisfied with your performance!"
Sarutobi Asuma put down his wine glass and said seriously,
"In the face of an almost hopeless situation, it is already good to rely on perseverance to persist until the third trial preliminaries. As for the one-on-one elimination competition, there are too many accidental factors, and the rules are very unfavorable to you. Especially Shikamaru, poor One point will make you advance..."
“In the end, we still fell short!”
Nara Shikamaru listlessly pushed the wooden window next to the table, and there was a hint of noisy noise outside.
"Asuma-sensei, Suna Ninja, are they all like that, in order to win, they will harm both sides?"
The bearded teacher replied:
"It's hard to say! In fact, I also find it a bit strange. This year's Sunagakure Village genin candidates are surprisingly strong. Of course, you are not bad, but you are just a little less confident in winning than the Sunagakure..."
"belief?"
Nara Shikamaru thought about it for a while,
"Like Xiao Li, in order to prove his endurance, he did not hesitate to fight to the death, but unfortunately he failed in the end..."
"Defeat in battle does not mean that the way of ninja is destroyed..."
Sarutobi Asuma shook his head,
"Of the three of you, I am most optimistic about your future, Shikamaru! However, you are the one I am most worried about right now..."
